Late Talker Book speaks volumes!

January 20, 2008

I posted about three weeks ago with a child I had in my care that

wasn't talking at 37 months. The mother had stated she talked with

her family and decided not to have him evaluated. She really believed

she just needed to spend more time communicating with him. As a last

resort I gave her the Late Talker book and a week later she had an

appointment for an evaluation. It's amazing the denial and blame some

of our loved ones live in but I am so grateful for this resource. It

speaks volumes. My 3 1/2 y.o. apraxic child is just blooming with a

new diet and supplements and a little therapy. Thanks to all who

offered support in trying to get through to this mother for the sake

of her young son.

Thanks,

Tara E.

You know what, to be fair, we were all once in denial. It is what you

do when you get out of it that counts. I knoew something was wrong long

before I acted and the EI folks tell me I was early. I know a mom the

EI folks saw when the kid was 32 months and this kid was severe PDD

Nos. Notice I say was. The mom had a new baby this summer and just

realized she could not live through denial twice. She read

McCarthy's book when the baby was 3 weeks old, went GFCF and the kid is

doing great. She is doing well that a few other parents at the

preschool with affected kids joined her and their kids, with different

issues, are also doing well. The school noticed as well. See, a lot of

the families that went GFCF did it with the whole family and the

typical kids are doing better in school. This group of parents has been

asked to present the diet to the school.

I am not selling this diet. These people are doing it with medical

guidance that they did have to find on their own. Their kids are likely

improving fast because aluminum is the deal. Not just from the vaccines

and packaged foos but from the water in town likely affected by the

window company in town. No wonder our water is not fluoridated.
