Trey is continuing to do very, very well. His eye contact is fantastic.
His happiness is exuberant. We went to his former DAN
doctor last Friday and another mom came into the playroom with
her son. Trey was desperately trying to greet this child and make eye contact with him. He has NEVER done that to anyone before.
I'm positive the mom thought only Evan had autism. Three weeks ago Trey looked as severely autistic as Evan. Speaking
of Evan, he's continually cleansing - which brings good and bad of course. But he's handling it soooo much better
than anytime previously. The enemas are surely helping with that. Keeping him
from getting totally auto intoxicated is
something I had never accomplished before BED. He is totally non-verbal (except for the
word "go!") but he
is starting to approximate words often throughout the day. He is also more quickly following one-step directions. His
response time or processing time has dropped to zero seconds from an average of 5-6 seconds.
But the BEST news of all is their palate changes. I've totally taken Shannon's advice and we already have
little boys who eat CVs and veggies at every meal. I've added raw butter and even a green drink to Trey who's sucking
both down. Evan isn't so keen on the green... but we'll get there. For once it's nice to have all this cooking
be EATEN - not WASTED. So aside from my aching back I'm delighted to have made all this stuff for them. Please bear in
mind that Trey only ate waffles, carrots and rice pasta before BED. Evan ate a good variety of foods but had started self-limiting
for no obvious reason and was refusing everything prior to BED. These are BIG changes in 30 days.
We did get some stool cultures back from last week that was pretty dreadful in terms of dysbiosis BUT in my mind
that's because the stuff is finally EXITING the colon. Dr. Krigsman had always said he takes that page of info with a
grain of salt (my paraphrasing, not his exact words.) The following pages of the test actually showed more gut healing and
less inflammation than prior tests.
Thanks to everyone
for their support & help. I You ALL rock!
