one year diet anniversay for my son-almost 10, grows 8years in 12 months

[Guest guest]

a year ago we were talking institutions for myalmost 9 year old 90#

son, he couldn't write his alphabet and processed emotions like a two

year old, I home schooled him while our school waited for an opening

in a day treatment program and began the process of looking for an

institution. He was restrained almost daily inpatient. He came home

from this third hospitalization at a phschiatric facility last

christmas with the diagnosis I guessed years ago-pdd w/autistic like

tendancies. In February I read Parents March artilce about the mom

who cured her son, skepitcal but desprate, I was already losing my

son, I gave it a try, at first just no milk, day 4 I awoke at 8am

startled by the silence. always woke around 5-6 hooting and

howling and bouncing off the walls. He is my built in alarm clock!

I rushed out in the living room to discover my very rigid child who

had recently add another lego structure to his display shelf with

gritted teeth saying again and again No one can touch this. Over the

years he slowly lost skills, once he was a creative lego artist, now

he would only build what was on the box cover exactly as the

instruction stated and never ever touch it again. I discovered him

on the floor this amazing morning with all the structures scattered,

disassembled and reassembled into a 4 foot spaceship with every guy

(20 or so) lined up, they were headed for a black hole to escape the

prison moon! I said, " Jay, look what you did!! " He looked up with

awe and said " I remember how to play this way! " Its been one delight

after another scince then. Lots of struggles getting his teachers to

recongnize the importance of the diet, but as he developed, the more

obvious the effects of an infraction became to them. Now he is

reading and writng for fun and working at a third grade level. He

still has his autistic tendencies, but when he crawls under a table

or starts hooting and I as him to come out or stop he does!
