Autism is Reversible!
Noah still has autism. However, more and more days are amazing. He greets a stranger or impresses his speech therapist. He says something for the first time or wrestles playfully with his brother. He seems to understand everything we are saying. Except for eating his vegetables, Noah will comply with nearly every request (when motivated). I have so much hope for Noah. I have no doubt that God has a special plan for this little boy and I am going to enjoy watching it all unfold.
April is Autism Awareness Month. Oh how I love that it falls in the same month that we celebrate new life through Jesus Christ. These children can recover, and some like Noah, who have not (yet) fully recovered, can make great improvements. I wanted to share a 30-minute video of hope called Autism Yesterday. It is about five children who have recovered from autism.

Fourteen Studies
Just wanted to share a site that has the fourteen studies that are often given as scientific proof that vaccines do not cause autism. If you really want to know what so many are putting their faith in concerning vaccines, you may want to take a closer look. If interested, check out the Fourteen Studies link on the right side of this page!
US Gov't...vaccines do cause autism
"Banks vs. HHS is the second known case where the Vaccine Court could not deny the overwhelming evidence showing vaccines caused a child's autism. The first was the case of Hannah Poling in March of 2008, where the court found in her favor and awarded her family compensation.
Jim Carrey, Hollywood legend and Generation Rescue board member, reacted to the news, "It seems the U.S. government is sending mixed messages by telling the world that vaccines don't cause autism, while, at the same time, they are quietly managing a separate 'vaccine court' that is ruling in favor of affected families and finding that vaccines, in fact, were the cause. For most of the autism community the question is no longer whether vaccines caused their child's autism. The question is why their government is only promoting the rulings that are in favor of the vaccine companies."
Why is a secret court, which no one knows about or understands, quietly paying these families for vaccine injuries and autism? Deirdre Imus, Generation Rescue board member and founder of the Deirdre Imus Environmental Center for Pediatric Oncology says, "Over the past 20 years, the vaccine court has dispensed close to $2 billion in compensation to families whose
children were injured or killed by a vaccine. I am not against vaccines and my own child has been vaccinated. But, I share the growing concerns of many parents questioning the number of vaccines given to children today, some of the toxic ingredients in vaccines, and whether we know enough about the combination risks associated with the multiple vaccines given to children during critical developmental windows."
To help spread the word of the Banks ruling, Generation Rescue also bought a
full-page ad that will run in the USA Today on 02/25/2009, which has a daily
circulation of 2,272,815.
Generation Rescue seeks to answer these questions and many more on a daily
basis as they fight for the truth and to recover children with autism around
the world. To learn more please visit www.generationrescue.org, write to
media@generationrescue.com"
Taken from HuffPost Feb. 25,2009
Keep informed...
Despite a court's ruling or the assaults against Dr. Wakefield, please continue to research vaccines.
Taken from Generation Rescue...
In 1983, the Centers for Disease Control recommended a total of 10 vaccines for our children. In 2008, the CDC recommends 36, an increase of 260%. Yet, no studies have ever been done to compare neurological disorder ("ND") rates of unvaccinated children to vaccinated children.
The growth in the number of vaccines given to our children in the last 20 years is rarely discussed in the media, despite a 260% increase in vaccines administered. Were millions of children dying from deadly diseases 25 years ago? No, they weren’t. Parents should know that vaccines are never tested for their "combination risk", despite the fact that children may get as many as 6 vaccines in a single visit to the doctor. And, when it comes to vaccines, how can it be possible that one size fits all? What may present no risks for one child may present enormous risks for another.
As a parent contemplating vaccinating their child, Generation Rescue would offer the following 3-point plan to try to minimize the potential risks from vaccines. (Please note that Generation Rescue are parents, not doctors. What follows is not medical advice, it is the opinion of parents. Anything written here should be reviewed with a qualified physician. Generation Rescue is not giving you medical advice this is valuable information all parents should be given. Minor editoral changes made for clearity)
#1 Take Precaution
(visit Generation Rescue for #2 & #3)
• Consider delaying vaccines until your child is 18-24 months old.
• Do not vaccinate if your child is taking antibiotics.
• Consider no more than one vaccine per doctor’s visit.
• If you plan to get the MMR vaccine, ask your doctor to give it in three separate vaccines for measles, mumps and rubella.
• Consider giving high doses of Vitamin C (3,000-5,000 mg per day) on the day before, of, and after vaccination.
• With the measles vaccine (MMR), consider high doses of Vitamin A (5,000 IU or more) on the day before, of, and after vaccination.
• If your child experiences any developmental delays, stop vaccinating until you learn more.
• If your child has an adverse reaction to a vaccine, stop vaccinating until you learn more.
• Always ask to see the vaccine insert, and never accept a vaccine that uses the preservative Thimerosal (mercury). For a complete list of vaccines with Thimerosal, see the FDA’s website here. Note: most flu shots today still contain Thimerosal.
what's in those lovely shots?
formaldehyde
aborted fetal tissue
antifreeze
aluminum
phenol
methanol
borax (aka. pesticide)
MSG
sulfates & phosphates
polysorbate 80
animal organ tissue & blood

Forgive me for asking but why is it that the same government who alerts not to give honey to an infant would mandate some of the above ingredient to that same child...I am just alittle confused. I need a moment with the GREAT PHYSICIAN.
Step back, Step forward...just do not sit down!
Each day brings one predictable reality for Noah...that nothing is predictable! Yesterday was rough, today was wonderful! And so I find the highs and lows of Noah's behavior so easily becoming the rollercoaster of my own emotions. I take one step forward and two steps back and wonder where we are going. Then I have a day like today when he looks deeply into my eyes, immediately responds to my voice, and complies with nearly every request while out running errands. Then I am reminded that I can not sit down, afraid of the backward days. He is coming into our world more and more every day. I pray that I will have the energy to make this world worth coming into!
Playroom
The playroom for our Son-Rise program is coming together! With the help of local agencies who have given generously, we are in the process of creating a wonderful environment for Noah that is distraction-free yet interactive and fun. This playroom is going to give Noah a safe place to learn. We have moved our playroom to give plenty of space for multi-sensory activities. While our bedroom has significantly gotten smaller with the move, we know that the extra space will be appreciated by Noah's therapists and volunteers.
Taking a dive
Sometimes I realize the amazing grace of God and at other times I guess I just take it for granted. Well, today I am reminded that God hears the cries of my heart and meets every need.
You see I am one of those "autism moms" who sees that next great therapy that has helped a child recover and I want to try it immediately. Maybe that particular supplement or behavior therapy may be the one that will unlock Noah's world. I am full of hope that Noah's body can recover. The frustrating part is to know that there are just some therapies that are way out of our financial reach. Hyperbarics Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is one of those. I have heard amazing stories of children who have had tremendous growth in language and communication while at the same time losing aggressive behavior. What is HBOT? "Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a method of administering pure oxygen at greater than atmospheric pressure to a patient in order to improve or correct conditions. By providing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber we are able to deliver 10-15 times more oxygen then if delivered at sea level or at normal atmospheric levels. Some of the effects this has are to promote the growth of new blood vessels, decreases swelling and inflammation, deactivates toxins, increase the body’s ability to fight infections, clears out toxins and metabolic waste products, and improve the rate of healing (Hyperbarics Healing Institute.)"
We know that Noah has inflammation, toxic metals, bacteria, yeast, and a severe milk allergy as well as an immune system which is attacking a virus but misfiring and taking on Noah's tissue instead. These are just a few in a long list of issues that we are trying to fight. In my world of relying on what financially can be done, I have to pick and chose therapies. Diet, supplements, chelation...the list continues. Well, I had always left HBOT out of my game plan because it seemed so unrealistic.
God has recently reassured me that if I do my best with what He has given me, He will take care of the unreachable. Now, my best might not be much. And on some days my best may be just holding back the tears. But, it is done with the assurance that God is bigger than autism or any other issue that may come before me. He demonstrates this all the time but I wanted to share with you one little way in which He is taking care of an unreachable right now. You see we have found special friends who have allowed us to use their HBOT for a fraction of the cost. They have actually asked for nothing but we feel as though we want to give. We are only in our 3rd of 40 "dives" into their oxygen chamber. We have no idea if Noah will respond well or not to this amazing therapy. But for me, the lesson has been learned. God loves me abundantly for no other reason than that is who He is. And His resources and His love far exceed what I could imagine. So with all my impatience and questioning, God comes to call to release my burden and lift my spirits!
Thank you again for sharing in our journey, I will keep you posted on our HBOT experience. BTW, since I am in the chamber with Noah as well, it is possible that I may begin to think more clearly too! I am sure Michael will appreciate that!! God Bless!

Why?
"The argument that more vaccination will equal better health is an argument that is getting harder to make as one in two Americans suffers from chronic disease and America plummets to 39th in infant mortality. At the same time, 25 percent of all children are suffering with learning disabilities, ADHD, severe allergies, autism, asthma, diabetes, inflammatory bowel disorder, rheumatoid arthritis and other chronic immune and brain disorders. The question that doctors and public health officials fear most is:
WHY IS THE MOST HIGHLY VACCINATED CHILD POPULATION IN THE WORLD SO SICK AND DISABLED?"
MMR: It’s ALL or NOTHING! Say goodbye to choice.
I, like many other moms, want my children to be protected from deadly deseases. However, we are currently fighting to remove a variety of heavy metals from Noah's body, and repair his destroyed immune system. Many children can not tolerate these immunizations when given together. Merck and Co has the ability to make the choice to vaccinate easier by offering seperated injections of the MMR. Yet they say NO. Noah was hopitalized for three days with the Roto Virus after receiving the vaccine at four months old.
This article is from Age of Autism, a daily newsletter focused on the rise of the autism epidemic. http://www.ageofautism.com/2009/01/mmr-its-all-or-nothing-say-goodbye-to-choice.htm By Allison Chapman
Your choice to work with your pediatrician on safer vaccine schedule has just received a very large blow. Merck and Co. has decided to take away your option of separating the MMR, instead of getting the whole shebang at once. Forget those who may be predisposed to not handling 3 viruses at once; you know the weak, the infant who may need a bit more time. What if they are unable to take one of the viruses due to allergy of an ingredient, but have decided to go ahead with one or both of the others? Well too bad, allergy or not you have lost your right to choose. It’s now, all or nothing. (HERE)
I’m shocked at such a move. Why on earth at a time when some Doctors are just barely beginning with work with their patient’s parents by creating a schedule per individual child, is Merck deciding to pull the plug? Is this something they believe will quiet the supposed anti-vaccine crowd? Quiet the MMR/Autism controversy? I highly doubt it. This is a mistake of monumental proportions that will likely come back to bite them as given only the choice of all or nothing, many more may choose nothing. So you can stop banging down our doors at that point because the blame will be in the mirror.
The vaccine court was set up for the purpose of when adverse reactions happen to some children, vaccines have always been known to have side effects for some, and vaccine court is there to compensate them when there is sufficient evidence. On Christmas Day I learned of a recent case in vaccine court just decided in favor of a child who developed seizure disorder and acute encephalopathy or the marked deterioration in neurologic development as a result of the MMR, his name is Ben Zeller. (HERE)
Anyone watching Ben Zeller’s parents holding him, this beautiful child, without the ability to sit up or fend for himself at all, would be overwhelmed with compassion, those of us with injured children can feel the knife passing through us. Click HERE to watch video.
I remember clearly what it was like when my son CJ received the MMR. Ahead of all milestones necessary; talking, walking, imitating, pointing, smiling, etc., all early. He used to look right into my eyes as I rocked him to sleep and sang to him. His favorite song was “Take me out to the ball game”. He was walking by 10 months and not long after was trying to play every sport. He had a set of plastic golf clubs and would wake up every morning and expertly whack balls all around our small apartment as if he were Tiger Woods in training. He also used to like to sing “Who let the Dogs out, who….who….who…”
Then at 15 months we went in for the MMR. I remember him not sleeping at all that night, crying and waking up with the most toxic smelling diaper. I also remembered when 48 hours later he had a 105 degree temperature. I called the pediatrician’s office but thought that 48 hours later was too long to be a result of the MMR but asked the nurse anyway (turns out that fever up to 2 weeks later can be result of MMR per Merck). The pedi’s office said no, it’s probably not a reaction, maybe he’s just getting a virus.
Well 3 days after that we still had no sleep, still had toxic diapers that didn’t seem to stop and I lifted up his shirt to see a rash all over his midsection and beyond. I called again and thought maybe it was roseola, they said maybe. Very few answers, just many coincidences. He started staring episodes which later realized were most likely absence seizures, started leveling off development and “Who let the dogs out, who…who….who...” became only “who…who….who…” As if he no longer had the energy to say the whole thing.
At 18 months we discussed some of the changes but his gross motor skills were still really good so we gave him his 18month shots. He immediately stopped calling me “Mommy”, stopped wanting to be in the same room as my husband and stopped following his sister around. He had on and off days but everything was steadily leaving and by 2 he was gone completely into the world of autism.
Do I believe the MMR alone is to blame? Or do I believe it was the thimerosal containing vaccines at 18 months alone? No, but they were both triggers, both involved absolutely in the decline of my son’s health. My children all reacted to vaccines in a way they should not have. I absolutely believe in predisposition, other toxic insults, all combining in a way to wreak havoc on a little body not equipped to handle them. There are too many too soon for some. I should be anti-vaccine from what I’ve been through but I instead believe in an individual’s right to informed choice. Their right to choose their own medical procedures designed around each child. I am not a fan of the “horde”, as I’m often confronted with those who believe I should take my lumps because it’s better for the “horde” and too bad for you if your children couldn’t handle it. I happen to think each child is worth more than that. Slower, less invasive schedules may have been the best decision for some, but no longer is it an option with the MMR.
I guess Merck believes you don’t need the choice, or that you aren’t responsible enough to have the choice. I don’t know which one is worse. If you would like to call Merck and Company to demand they correct this huge error in judgment their contact info is below. It says right on their website, “Where patients come first” we should make them prove it.

Let's get moving!
I am so excited to begin our home program with Noah. We came in the door this morning and immediately began to live out the principles that we had been encouraged with all week. How exciting to know that we get to have a program based on celebrating Noah's unique gifts in a child-centered, loving environment. With the TV and computer unplugged, our focus for Noah will be to build social interactions. After only one day of intentionally celebrating eye contact, joining him in repetitious or seclusive behaviors, and being as energetic as possible, Noah began interacting with us more. He stayed in his seat throughout his entire meal (AMAZING!), he hopped into the bath with NO FUSSING, and did not have any frustration when told he would not be playing the computer. (Before we left, he was hitting himself on the head when told there was no computer time).
I also have to say another benefit of the program may be sudden weight loss on my part. It is quite a workout to be theatrical all day long! Sincerely though, today was wonderful. The house is much less organized and I am tired, but I feel changed somehow. I finally get to let go of the guilt of autism and what I possibly did wrong, to a new sense of joy in finding my little boy and loving every minute of it!
Thanks for your support!
Christy
Meet Garrett
We have been blessed to spend some very valuable time with a family from Marysville that has joined us on our trip to Massachusettes. Here is alittle about their precious son, Garrett.
Our son Garrett is five years old and he is “autistic”.
Garrett was not born autistic. He met all the measurable developmental milestones the first 2 ½ years of his life. In fact, he was a caring, intelligent little guy with both an “advanced” vocabulary and sense of humor. He mostly enjoyed books, trains and his big sister, Kylie, who is seventeen months his senior.
However, six weeks before Garrett’s third birthday a dramatic change in him began. He became withdrawn and anxious. Suddenly, “objects” were more interesting than people. He’d rather isolate himself in our basement and stare at a book than swing with his sister or wrestle with his dad. Where he once would sit in his Mom’s lap and listen to her read for hours, he now could not be in the same room with her or anyone for more than a few minutes. In a word, our little, fun-loving “G” had in a startling short time become disconnected from this world.
He was evaluated by a team of professionals at Ohio State & Children’s Hospital approximately four months later and was diagnosed with “autism”.
Garrett’s development not only halted but his regression continued. Today, that bright light of a child is lost. Although he is lost (right now) he is not gone. Garrett deserves the opportunity to fulfill his potential just as everyone does. We further believe it is our responsibility to make that happen...no matter the toll.
Day One at Son-Rise
While we still have dinner and a movie to tend to, Day 1 is nearly complete. We are here with 71 people from 15 different countries, and 17 of the US States. The opportunity for networking is great, and hearing the stories of others is both compelling and heart-breaking. We find ourselves humbled before God at being entrusted with each of our children and have experienced in one day, tools that will be helpful in ministering to the needs of all of them.
Thank you so much to each of you who is supporting us on our journey to Noah's healing. Whether you have supported us financially, prayerfully or otherwise, you have been and continue to be a tremendous blessing and benefit to the betterment of Noah and of our family.
Please continue to pray for us that this week would be rich with information that leads to our transformation in better ministering to Noah's needs; please pray also that the Lord may use us to bless and encourage others along their journey. Thanks so much for your attentiveness to our needs and the goings on of our lives. We love and appreciate all of you!
Check out GAPS info. in Healing The Gut section!
I truely believe that many of the growing conditions facing our children such as autism, allergies, asthma, ADD, ADHD and so on are connected with the gut. 80% of your child's immune system is located in the gut. I urge anyone whose child is struggling with one or more of these conditions to check out the material produced by Dr. Campbell-McBride in her book, Gut and Psychology Syndrome.
Changing Everything!
As I write, our house is being rearranged in order to set up our therapy room. My husband has had to move more things than he would care to admit but has been a very good sport. He did mention however that if the armoire needed moved again it was headed for the firepit, so it will stay where it is!
At this point I feel somewhat overwhelmed with taking such a profound role in Noah's daily therapy. It is easy for me to get caught up in laundry and housework that I fear I will not be able to give enough to Noah as well as the other children. I covet your prayers as we look forward to our home program.
Michael and I leave in just alittle over a week for New England for training in the Son-Rise Program. Through the blessing of so many, we have raised the funds to attend this program and we are overjoyed. Not only will it allow us a better understanding of how the program can be run, it will give us some much needed time together. We hope to come home refreshed and determined!
Everyday brings something new
Noah allows us to appreciate even the smallest of gifts. Yesterday after Michael sneezed Noah walked up to him and said with a smile, "gesundheit."
It was great! Everyday he is connecting more to our world.
Nourishing Noah....one bite at a time!
Gluten-Free/Casein-Free Diet
Authors Mary Fry, Diane Gallant & Moira Giammetteo
What is the gluten-free, casein-free (GF/CF) diet?
This is a dietary intervention to lessen the digestive and bowel issues sometimes found in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Recent research indicates that there are children with a genetic predisposition to the disorder which is then triggered by some as yet undetermined event – a vaccine, environmental toxin, or virus – which can cause a "leaky gut” (sometimes evidenced by resulting chronic loose stools as the child cannot properly digest these proteins.) If this happens, wheat and dairy are then metabolized as opiates. It is believed that by eliminating gluten (wheat) and milk protein (casein), the gut will begin to heal and the child's overall condition will improve somewhat. Sometimes additional factors are in play and must be addressed as well before positive change is seen (such as yeast overgrowth, as an example). Because the diet is considered an "alternative" therapy, school administrators, medical personnel, and others often view it with skepticism. But, for some children, eliminating gluten and casein helps lessen self-stimulating behaviors, increases focus, and resolves gastro-intestinal distress. That's why it is so worth the effort!
The diet is not a cure for autism nor is it a substitute for traditional one-on-one intervention. Rather, by making the child more comfortable, the child becomes more receptive to learning (not to mention the potential positive impact in the child’s overall health, demeanor, and possible reduction in negative behaviors).
Son-Rise Training
Many of you know that our son, Noah, is currently diagnosed with autism. At 6 years old, he struggles everyday with severe food allergies, abdominal pain, sensory integration issues, language and social-emotional delays. We have been praying for a miracle, while also researching and exploring bio-medical pathways. We believe we are currently under the care of one of the most compassionate and competent medical doctors around. We are looking to have that same level of expertise in addressing behavioral and social skills. Like every other set of parents, we want our child to fulfill his potential. Without special intervention, our Noah's future may be limited.
In the last few months we’ve found a center that is having high levels of success bringing children through their state of autism: The Son-Rise Program at the Autism Treatment Center of America. I was able to talk with the current CEO of the center who himself was completely healed of autism through Son-Rise methods. He was a great inspiration, and reminder of Noah's potential
Michael and I will be traveling to The Options Institute early this December for a week of intensive training. Through this training we will be able to work more effectively with Noah in a home-based program over the next several years to help him through his autism. The success rate of The Son-Rise Program instills hope in us for his freedom from this mysterious condition. It is difficult for us to understand fully the issue of autism and reversing it in Noah, but we are diligently trying to do so for the sake of his future. Please be in prayer for us as we continue to look for the best possible therapies for Noah. We are very excited to see what God has in store! Thank you!
In 2008, the following groups and individuals have advocated, or at least considered, further study of a possible vaccine-autism connection:
HHS Secretary Designee Tom Daschel, who said in November of 2002: “Mercury-based vaccine preservatives actually have caused autism in children.”

Hi Christy!! I'm so excited for you! I have actually turned the TV off for our family starting last week, and it is amazing how much more imaginitive and interactive the kids are! I don't know if I could go TV free though! Hmmm... does that mean it is a stronghold? I will do some praying on that! Please let me know how your days are going, as long as you have the energy to plug in the computer and type :) PS... while I'm thinking about it, I have a friend that needs some help and direction with her son. Have a great week!
