Guest guest Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 Britany... what dosage have you been giving your son? Did you start slow or start at that dosage? Thanks for the wonderful update! Tatyana mom to ASD 4 [ ] Re: First NV Update I just had to write about the tremendous and amazing progress my 4 year old son has made in the last five weeks on NV! He has been diagnosed with autism and apraxia and his progress has been terribly slow up till we tried NV which we almost didn't (my husband was a huge skeptic) Everyone is beside themselves at the improvements we're seeing. His occupational therapist asked if he's receiving extra speech therapy and his speech therapist can't say enough good things about his behavior, speech, proc essing, attention, transitioning, eye contact, social skills, enthusiasm toward therapy, ... WOW! I can't believe I'm writing this as I never do, I just like to read what others write, but I can't sleep I'm so excited! Earlier today, my son ran to the door when my parents came over, full of excitement yelling, " Grammy Grampa! " " Grammy Grampa! " He could barely wait for them to get in the door before he took them by the hand and pulled then into his room saying, " Sit down! " " Play! " Before he wouldn't have even noticed when they came over. He was non stop talking, saying actual sentences like, " Fun play Grammy. " or " Grandpa fun blue tunnel. " Not only that, he is be ginning to ask " What? " and " Where? " questions and is starting to say " I want ... " instead of just saying " more cha milk " (his name for his NV, I call it his chocolate milk) or " go outside " etc... He now counts to 20, knows all shapes and colors and knows his alphabet! He seems to for the first time notice his 22 month old sister. Best of all, he hugs her and kisses her without us asking him to, and if she starts to do something she shouldn't he'll say, & quo t;No, no Sophie. " Sometimes he'll even add, " not safe! " or " no do that Sophie! " He has a new interest in music now and imitates all of the body movements (and sings along!) to songs like head shoulders knees toes and wheels on the bus etc... He is making huge progress with taking turns and sharing and his sudden ability to be patient is phenomenal but that could also be that he is less frustrated! Sorry to go on and on, but after all we've been through these last few years with IEPs, therapists, doctors, diagnoses, competing opinions, etc... I just had to share how over the moon thankful and shocked I am about all the progress my son has had on NV in the past few weeks! For the first time I feel so much hope. Thank you for this group! Brittany > > For sure Krista please give us more updates- this is just the beginning surges which is great but not anywhere near what you will be seeing in the next few days, weeks and months. You may want to print out the survey here http://pursuitofresearch.org/survey.html or keep track of what is listed on this page http://pursuitofresearch.org/pursuit.html because the surges are across the board and all at once and many times people miss areas. > > I have a perfect example -when we first introduced nutriiveda to this group one of Dakota's slightly older friends started it not for any reason other than he at 16 wanted to lose a few pounds (he wasn't really overweight or at least didn't look it) As I have here in the archives his grades soared from where he was sent to 3 different High Schools due to his ADHD and behavioral issues to where within a few weeks of being on nutriiveda his mom got a call that they believe now he'll graduate from HS a y ear earlier. Well his mom stopped the nutriiveda because after all he lost whatever weight and grades were great....but just the other day he came over to my house and both of my boys were TOWERING over him....that's another side benefit of nutriiveda we don't speak of much here but growth- OMG both my boys are around 6 foot now as many of you friends with me on fb can see from my pics where I look short...and I'm not short!!! Anyway yes this friend is going back on. As I said to the mom - " hey we ha ve a window here -any one of us as adults can drink this all day long and we aren't going to grow any more...but clearly this is giving a boost nutritionally to genetics " > > Anyway point is yes you can start seeing surges in a day to a few days -but for me and most they just continue and you want to look at all areas. > > Congratulations!!! And please don't leave out updates for the newbies when your child is close to or normal in a few months- this stuff is working so fast that is just what is happening and new people join and don't know about it!!! And if you are reading this and your child has been on NV for a few months PLEASE share with the group your newest update like all of you from http://pursuitofresearch.org/testimonials.html as again new parents need to know!! (like how you are out buying dinosaur bedding as a surprise because he never has a " normal " interest like this before hint hint you know who you are!!! > > ===== > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
