Guest guest Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 My boy likes dragons and he likes telling me about them. He tells me where they live, and what color they are, and even what color their tongues are. He calls me over to the computer to see the picture of a dragon and he points at it and he talks to me about it. He calls me over to his castle and he points at his dragon figurine and he talks with me. My boy has interests that he likes to share with me. My boy is getting better.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Awesome Deb! I am so happy to hear that My boy started more play skills after chelating too, his expressive language took a lot longer, but it eventually started coming (1 1/2 years after starting?) > > My boy likes dragons and he likes telling me about them.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 If speech came after 1.5 years how can you attribute that to chelation? It could be just developmental. > > > > My boy likes dragons and he likes telling me about them. He tells me where they live, and what color they are, and even what color their tongues are.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 My boy is 15 years old. He has severe autism, he did not potty train until 10 yo in case that helps to understand the severity. Him wanting to talk with me about dragons and monsters and animals is amazing, and I have not seen anything similar to this since before he was 19 months old and he got autism. It's been a long wait.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 My son asked his first question after a round of DMSA (round 12 or something? 2008?). From there, his language was pretty much at a stand still - learning new words, but seemingly forgetting others he'd learned (Andy said possibly seizure activity causing this). Then in the fall of 2009, I started him on Vinpocetine and we saw a major increase in spontaneous phrases and attempts at conversational language. His echolalia turned to intraverbals (answering questions instead of repeating what we said). Just my opinion, but I don't think the vinpocetine would have worked like it did if we didn't chelate a lot first. His inflammation in his brain was way down (with removal of foods and chelating) evidenced by less symptoms (screaming, agitation, aggression, violent behavior, impulsivity, needing to constantly move to be comfortable, etc). It was the right time to increase blood flow/oxygen to his cells and he responded wonderfully! So much so that his teacher CRIED because she was so excited about him saying something appropriate to her and his speech therapist was amazed. I kept pretty good records of his progress on this group Rochelle, feel free to search my name and look if you like. I have told all the good and the bad, the things that worked and what didn't and things I learned. > > > > > > My boy likes dragons and he likes telling me about them.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 How wonderful for your son, you, and your family! I'm so happy for you all. These are the kinds of things others just starting need to hear about. So they see what can be accomplished with a relatively simple and affordable method of autism treatment. > > > > > > My boy likes dragons and he likes telling me about them.
