WEEK THREE COMPLETE!

Week three is down!  Three more to go in this initial stage!  Kale continues to be tired throughout the day....even when he sleeps 7 or 8 hours at night.  He slept 3 hours at school again today!  UGH!  Good thing he gets therapy at home to make up for the instructional time he misses when he sleeps at school!  He has a sty on his right eye.  It appeared last week on the top of his eyelid.  That one is gone and now there is another on his bottom eye lid.  He also has 2 small red bumps on his nose.  I will have to ask mary about these. 
He has been on the B Vitamins she included with his protocol for the past 3 days.  He takes them with no problems.  : ) Phew!  Thank God for easy liquid vitamins and remedies!  We have had NO problems getting everything in him! 

He has done well with therapy so far this week.  Today was his 3rd day in a row of therapy at home after school.  He worked well all week, even though he is very tired!  His verbal approximations have decreased since the new protocol started, we are all in agreement of this!  We knew to expect regression so that's ok for now.  I am not panicking yet!! 

Ok, off to bed.  Going to the Temple Grandin conference tomorrow!! 

WEEKEND

Kale had a great weekend.  His independence continues to grow and we are so glad this has not been effected by the introduction of the new protocol.  He continues to brush his teeth independently which is a HUGE accomplishment for him.  He was in good spirits all weekend but still seems to be more tired overall.  His sleep is effected and unregulated but that's not out of the 'norm' for Kale.  One month to go until we enter the DETOX stage.  We can't wait!!  :)  

WEEK TWO IS DONE!!!

Well, we have made it through week two and we are definitely seeing some changes.....unfortunately we are going backwards at the moment (which was expected).  His sleep schedule is completely messed up again as it use to be.  He is showing less awareness, decreased eye contact and he has been showing aggression again.  He has hit his therapists all week.  :(  This is the part I HATE!!!  He has also had "sad crying" episodes that started on Monday.  He gets very sad and cries...not always for an obvious reason.  Today, he is functioning on 6 hours of sleep last night with only a 30 minute nap at school.  He made it through his school day and 2 hours of therapy after school but he is one tired boy. 
We are still on the 6 remedies.  I will introduce the other two on Friday I think due to a crazy work schedule for myself this week.  I will be incorporating his yeast protocol every day from now on to try to help with some of the die off symptoms we are seeing.  His appetite seems to have increased at times...others he doesn't eat much.  He uses food more as an avoidance to getting out of his work or therapy activities.  Thank God his team at school and at home understand why we are doing this new protocol and are on board for this up and down ride we are going to experience through detox.  Hopefully, this mama can make it through the next 11 1/2 months on little to no sleep and 4 jobs!  Yikes!! 

Four weeks to go until detox begins!  :)

WEEK ONE IS DONE!!!

Whoo hoo!!!  We made it through week one of our new protocol!!  The remedies are already affecting Kale.  He is tired.....all the time.  Even on the nights he has slept 8-9 hours, he is tired during the day.  He is making it through his day and through his therapy sessions ok.  He has been very lovey all week long.  This is not out of the ordinary for Kale....and I will take every little bit of his cuddling and kisses!  :)

Tonight, I introduced two more remedies.  This will put us at 6 out of 8.

The first remedy is called Drainage Tone,

The second remedy is called ReHydration,

The remaining 2 will be introduced on Sunday.  Then our new protocol will be complete!  :) 

YEAST, WE HAVE YEAST!!

And we have a flareup already......hyenna like hysterical laughter and sleep schedule is all out of whack already!  Kale slept about 3 hours last night which resulted in him sleeping the day away at school today.  He was perky all night tonight....to the normal eye.  However, Kale's perky hyenna laugh appeared and I say......OH NO when I hear that laugh!  It means the yeast beast is back.  Yep, I called it a beast because that's what it is!  Yeast has always been our enemy in this house when it comes to Kale.  We were prepared for this flareup because Mary had warned me that with this protocol (like everything else we have done), it stirs up the yeast!!!  The good news???  He has pooped EVERY night since we started the protocol and is drinking a lot of propel....both of which are good because we need those elimination pathways working at 150%. 

On a bright note.....literally....I got a note from Kale's aide today that said he requested  a hotdog and cracker today, verbally, clear as day.  He also said papa tonight clear as day.  So....that's our good news of the day!  We are still only on the 4 remedies so far but Kale is continuing to drink them with no issues!

Pray for sleep tonight......I am old and I am tired!!  xo

SEGMENT A CONTINUED.....

Kale has received 5 doses of the first two remedies introduced and so far so good.....
He did not sleep well last night but I cannot say with 100% accuracy that his sleep was affected by the remedies.  This child has never had a normal sleep schedule so we will not blame it on the remedies just yet....

This morning, I have introduced 2 more remedies.  The first is Hypothalmapath.

and Fields of Flowers.

Four have been introduced, 4 more to go this week.  As of next Monday, I am hoping to have introduced all of the remedies and we will then have another 5 weeks within segment A.  We are anticipating he will handle all 8 remedies in this segment pretty well before we hit segment B when detox starts.  My entries will get more interesting at that time as his body is going through detox. 

Happy Sunday!!

FOOD ALLERGIES

Mary and I discussed Kale's current food allergies and she said we will address that topic a few months along the way.  (She didn't want to overwhelm me with the diet changes we are going to have to implement for Kale).  However, she did mention that many kids with Autism, like Kale, have an allergy to Malvin.  I said, what is Malvin?  OH LORDY......Malvin is IN most of the foods that Kale eats!!!  GOD NO!!!!  Too late Mary....I am already freaking out about the diet changes.  Take a look at this list....

Segment A

A.)  Our first 6 week segment started today!!  Kale's remedies arrived today...  He will be on a total of 7 remedies for the next 6 weeks, all of which are part of his new protocol.  The goal of this first 6 weeks is to open up Kale's pathways and get him ready for intracellular detox.  We are triggering his liver, kidneys, thyroid,etc. and making sure his pathways are open and ready to transfer those toxins OUT of his body.  These toxins have been building over the years, inhibiting him from learning new skills, making eye contact, verbally communicating, eating a variety of foods, having friendships with kids his age, and so on and so on.....

In Homotoxicology, there is a chart...

http://www.naturalworldhealing.com/philosophyofhealth/homotoxicologytable.htm

The good news is that Kale is in the Inflammation stage VS. the Degeneration stage (where many children his age with Autism already are).  This means all of the protocols we have been doing for the past 7 years have helped him (dietary interventions, biomedical interventions and classical homeopathy)!!!  Thank you GOD for the affirmation of our hard work!  BUT the hardest work is yet to come.....

Detox will take 6-12 months for Kale, maybe longer.  We won't know until his body starts to react to the remedies.  The other good news......kids are RECOVERING from Autism on this protocol!!  Many of you know that we have always considered Kale's speech APRAXIA to be our nemesis, not the Autism.  We are determined to defeat both with this protocol!  OR we will give 149% trying!!

Today, I received 7 new remedies in the mail.  I started with 2 of them tonight.  The OTHER good news about homotoxicology......many of the remedies are a liquid and are dispensed via a small dropper.  This is HUGE for us as getting Kale to take supplements has been a battle since day 1 of biomedical treatments!!  I dispensed the two remedies into his water tonight and he drank them right up!  AWESOME!!! 

The two remedies I started with tonight are Isopathic Phenolic Rings and Spectramin. If you click on the links below, you can read up on what these 2 remedies will do to assist Kale.

I need to make a disclaimer.....I am in no way telling anyone via this blog that this should be the treatment path for themselves or for their child.  I am also telling you to consult a Homeopathy practicioner before attempting to give  remedies.  We have been practicing homeopathy in our family for two years now under the guidance of a homeopath.  We are now working with Mary who assists us with this new protocol.   This blog is solely a way for me to document this journey for our family and friends who want to understand and stay informed as to our progress.  This blog also helps me to keep everything straight as my son continues to progress. 

I will introduce the other 5 slowly over the next 2 weeks.

Hello everyone,

I am starting a new blog that will be all about our newest journey.....Homotoxicology.  I want to document all of the ups and downs of this new adventure we are beginning for Kale towards his recovery from Autism and Apraxia. 
I had a phone consult with Mary Coyle in New York on September 4th, 2012.  The phone call was almost 2 hours long.  She explained the principles of Homotoxicology, tested his samples and suggested which remedies should be included in our new protocol.  Mary gave us hope but she also let us know that this road is going to be LONG and UP and DOWN as Kale goes through detox of heavy metals, antibiotics, viruses left by vaccines, and every other environmental toxin that is going to come out.  I will have a phone consult with Mary every 6 weeks so I am going to label each 6 week segment with letters, starting our first 6 week segment as blog A.  The first 6 week segment started today!!  Here we go........
