Happy New year Autism 2016, I am an autism advisor

Today is January 1st 2016 and as is customary for me I like to look back at the accomplishments of the last year and ahead at the hopes for the coming year. First of all, 2015 saw many changes to our protocol and drink. From start to finish we were adding things that increased the functionality of my children. In July we added a plant to the drink that drastically increased the die off rate of pathogens. Which led to incredible healing for some children in record times but for others it led to increased negative behavior equally fast. After years of trying to increase the strength of my drink I had finally succeeded in making it too strong for some. Needless to say I will have to tone it down in order to reach more people. It was so strong that even a 1/2 teaspoon was too much for one of my older clients. Yet many newer and younger clients could tolerate a teaspoon with no problem. These new modifications to the drink and protocol have allowed me to help our newer clients see changes in their children rather quickly. Changes that had taken months to see before are now happening in weeks and even days.  One of our newest clients reported that her child was able to go to sleep on time and slept through the night for the first time ever after being on the drink only 1 day. Of course this may sound unbelievable to some but I invite you to look at the work already done on clostridia and autism. If you understand the  healing that was possible with vancomycin than it should not be too much of a stretch to realize that similar results can be had with antimicrobials, probiotics and immune boosters. Now I have to get this message to as many people as I can.
      Today I accept my role as a professional autism advisor. I will endeavor to get even more consultations this year than the previous year.  I know it's not going to be easy. My message is contrary to what is being repeated so often about autism. However, let me remind you that at one point many repeated that the earth was flat or that the universe revolved around the earth, surgeons routinely never sterilized their hands before surgery and the list goes on forever. For my part I've always gone in the opposite direction as the crowd so this is my comfort zone. Besides, I get so much joy from hearing families elated because of healing in their children that I can handle the occasional Astro turfers who link everything  I say to my opinion on vaccination.  In fact I think that diminishing the symptoms of autism in our children should supersede everyone's opinion about vaccines. I only want to help families diminish the symptoms of autism the way my child was helped.  If you are interested call 313 528 9240 or visit us at www.maximizeautisticpotential. Nutrition and detox can be used to diminish the symptoms of autism, I can't wait to show you how.

Inspired

I just finished looking at the latest update of PhilCommander's son Jake on You Tube. It has rekindled        My desire to heal my children. Jake's  journey has taken ten years to get to where he is and my son is on his ninth year of recovery. I'm motivated to see how much healing we can get after ten years as well. Sometimes just seeing the level that another kid has achieved is enough to let you know how much healing is possible for children with autism. Its easy to get stuck in a rut of thinking that seems to suggest that my child has reached as high as he can go. So parents need to be inspired to push even harder to get to the next level. I know that our journey has inspired others to heal their children and we have been inspired by others to heal ours. I'm always excited by parents who are willing to fight to improve the quality of life for children with autism. Despite the fact that different methods are being used, the objectives are the same. Every child that recovers from autism inspires countless other families to do the same. I am proud to serve as an inspiration to some and be inspired by others.

Nine years of recovery

Nine years ago, I could never have predicted we would be where we are now. As Dakhari was being diagnosed back then I had almost no idea about what autism was. I certainly had no clue my older son would be diagnosed with Aspergers or that my daughter would have similar symptoms. As an overwhelming optimist I did think we would have this autism business sorted by the time Dakhari entered kindergarten. Needless to say, that didn't happen. I did manage to get and keep him in regular education from 1st grade to the present sixth grade. In fact the way things are headed i fully expect him to graduate from college. I'm not saying it will be easy, I'm just saying he is at a point now that it can be done if he decides to do it. At present he has a grade point average of 3.6 so i know he is capable.
     How did we get here? I spent countless hours researching anything that would diminish the symptoms of autism. Having a degree in biology undoubtedly colored my understanding of autism. I see autism as an environmental injury. You would think that Dakhari's healing would be proof enough of my argument, but it isn't. To bolster my position we have also helped to heal a half dozen or so other children with autism to some degree or another. Interestingly we have found that there are no symptoms   of autism that can not be diminished. Unfortunately until recently many families have had to wait months and years on the protocol before seeing substantial gains. However with the recent changes on board, we are seeing substantial change considerably quicker. This is crucial because the propaganda that depicts autism as unchangeable is far reaching and well funded.
     It is clear to me now that popular opinions about autism will only be changed by the parents that choose to fight to heal their children of autism. The popular position of neurodiversity is adopted by those who don't believe autism can be healed. Once more people begin to understand the power they have to mitigate the symptoms  of autism naturally, neurodiversity will fade. Make no mistake about it, I expect this to be the hard part. It will make the creation of Dakhari's protocol and the Divine Child green drink seem easy by comparison. The protocol and drink we created is what is responsible for the success my half dozen families are experiencing. This fact is just too much for some to comprehend. We were able to get Dakhari's ASD label removed from his IEP without special diets, doctors or drugs.  I expected that this would be well received by parents. After reading so many cries for help from parents. I suppose things are so bad that some parents don't even dare to hope. Oh well, I can only help those who have eyes that see the truth and ears that here the truth. Autism is a changeable condition. Nutrition and detox are viable solutions for many health conditions not just autism. Of course when the general populace understands this it means less money for someone. I would hope that love for one's child would trump a companies bottom line. In other words we can not afford the narrative about autism to be defined by families not affected by autism. As for those families who choose simply to accept autism as a different way of being, i respect their right to do so. I don't respect anyones opinion that anything other than acceptance is borderline child abuse. Especially when i have had phenomenal success diminishing the symptoms of autism by not accepting them.
  Lastly I'd like to say that me and my little half dozen families are excited to be healing our children of autism and can't wait for more families to jump on the bandwagon. We just got word from a family we shipped green drink to in Maryland and the 14 year old young man was able to conquer his fear of a giant slide after only three weeks on our protocol. I can go on and on like this but too many find it hard to believe anyway. As the old folks would say,"the proof  is in the pudding." Watch our testimonial on You Tube, Face book and Twitter.

A change is gonna come

       I just finished watching a very inspiring and sad documentary about the life of Sam Cooke.
Of course all I could see was the great lost. To be cut down in the prime of life is truly tragic.
My mind being linear went straight to the loss the world endures because of autism. Sure some children with autism still manage to share their gifts. Still, I believe the vast majority of our children are weighed down by autism and their potential is limited very early in life. Specifically, my son is in fifth grade now and still has delays in language, behavior, socialization, and even cognitive delays.
To the surprise and dismay of many he is closing the gap in all of these areas. Even I was surprised when the cognitive improvements came last month. It is difficult to understand how a person's cognitive ability could change so quickly. For a brief moment I was tempted to believe that our progress was reaching a climax. Thankfully my son's progress was not hindered by my lack of understanding or faith.
       Once again I have seen the light. My faith is restored. I honestly see a day when my son will be completely recovered from autism. One by one the autism dominoes are beginning to fall. What seemed like such an insurmountable foe is now seeming more manageable than I ever imagined.
Dakhari has done very well in school for the month of September. He is doing A and B work on a consistent basis. Just today I was shocked at how well his handwriting has become. He is even teasing that his handwriting is clearer than mine. The cause of all this progress is the September green drink. The fact is we got lucky. One of the hand full of herbs we added is working quite well. In fact it worked so well that I believed I was done adding things to the drink. Unfortunately, despite the progress Dakhari is not where I want him to be. I believe he can get even better. To be clear this is not just wishful thinking. There is a method to my madness. Dakhari's protocol is designed to reduce pathogens. Fewer pathogens mean fewer toxic by products.
     The LPS toxin is able to disrupt serotonin. By limiting LPS, we allow more serotonin to be used appropriately in the body. This could be why children on the protocol sleep better, think better, talk more etc. In short they become more typical. Fortunately, it is time for another video of  Dakhari.
Every six months I do a video of Dakhari having a conversation with his mom. This will be our fourth installment. Each seems to show incremental improvement over the last. Hopefully the progress will be obvious in the next video as well. Of course I can't wait until Dakhari is recovered. Until then I am content with the incremental progress we are making. I've already identified the next handful of herbs I will try out in the next green drink.
        Like every time before, I am hopeful that this next rendition will be the final one. Even if it only gets me just a little bit closer I am grateful. The changes in the September drink was just significant enough to make school more manageable for Dakhari. Who knows how much further the next one will take us. One thing is for sure, if a change is gonna come, we are going to have to make it come for ourselves.

Self Advocacy

     Self advocacy is one of those terms I may have never known were it not for my sons having autism. It's generally used to mean speaking up for ones self. When I was a child we called it having confidence. It's just another reminder of how much children with autism have to work on. The list can  be exhaustive for some. If anyone had told me as a young adult that my children would have to struggle with the simplest of things, I would not have believed it. Trying to explain autism to me twenty years ago would be like trying to explain television to a caveman. My mind simply could not conceive it. Even now I keep expecting to wake from a dream or is this a nightmare. Maybe if I pinch myself I'll wake up. Whatever the case I can not accept autism as a reality for my children, at least without a fight. How has the good old days become, when kids could talk and think. If ever there was a time to fight this is it. I am completely focused. I am not distracted by any of life's little escapes. You know the usual culprits ( sex, money, sports, reality TV....). I can't understand how anyone could be concerned with such nonsense when our children are being lost. 60 million souls world wide are affected by autism.
     Still, some people are significantly improving the quality of life for their children. We happen to be one of those lucky families that have done just that. In fact, just yesterday my wife and I commented about having a good feeling after our son's IEP. For the first time ever we felt positive about the course set to address our son's deficits.  Usually the IEP is a big can't festival. You know the song, 'He can't do this and He can't do that'. Well not this time. Sure he still has some things he cant do but after seeing so many of those change to things he can do. We feel its just a matter of time before his remaining deficits are improved as well. I'm so pumped up I feel like advocating for myself.
       We met a guy at church yesterday who has experience producing infomercials. Although we had never considered this, I am starting to see this as a possibility in the near future. We have contacted every media outlet we could about our story but have not had a positive response from any. The next step may be to get our message out by way of advertising on our own dime. I'm okay with that. The only thing that truly matters is helping more children.

Newbies

I met a young woman today. She happens to be the mother of a nine year old completely non verbal boy. I honestly don't know which of us were more stunned.  My talk of recovery must have seemed a bit strange, just as her lack of knowledge about recovery was strange to me. Sometimes I forget just how far down the rabbit whole I have gone. Over the last seven years I have researched autism to the point that even I can barely stand anymore. Frankly I have been obsessed. However this woman seemed to be the complete opposite. It got me thinking just how many people like this are out there.
It makes me want to scream, 'Autism is a changeable condition. ' I know of course as more children are healed our voice will begin to roll like thunder.  Still, in the end she was inspired by my story of recovery and I was inspired to reach more newbies.

Dad stepped in the pooh

My daughter and niece were out with me walking the dog we are sitting and of course, dad steps in dog pooh.  Sending the girls running, giggling and chanting,  dad stepped in dog pooh. I was immediately struck with how typical their response is. Of course that sends my mind racing down the path of what life will be like for my two boys diagnosed with autism. What will their lives be like in middle school, high school or college. Will they marry, have kids or ever drive or make friends. I'm sure you know this drill, so you can fill  your own personal worries in the blank. Our concern for other people's worries is the reason my wife and I were at the annual autism walk earlier that morning.
          With about 200 flyers my wife and I are engaging the crowd at the annual walk about our successful autism recovery efforts using nutrition and detox. As this is our third or fourth year doing so, some of the parents even remember talking to me last year. We haven't been contacted yet, but its good to be remembered. It's almost like an evangelical experience. My wife and I deliver passionate, heart felt experiences. We of course are the converted and have seen the light. Many of the people we talk to are both hopeful and doubtful all at once. It's understandable of course because they have been told by experts not to expect much change, that autism is lifelong and genetic. So why should they listen to two unassuming little African American parents.
          First of all, there are no autism experts. If the professionals can't tell me what autism is or where it comes from, then why would I listen to advice about what is possible for my children with autism. The truth is any family investigating the use of nutrition and detox to diminish the symptoms of autism will require making a leap of faith. Unfortunately many people don't yet recognize that illness is big business in this world. Any paradigm that involves healthier people is bad for the bottom line of many sick care businesses. How many products can you count that promise to make you well.  Now imagine what would happen if you really didn't need any of them. What if healthy
food is all you needed to be well.  In fact what if food could be used to heal many different health challenges including autism. That would make food a pretty important commodity.  Do you know who owns the food we feed our families.
          This may seem a little off topic to some, I can assure you it is not. We are all in the same fish bowl people. What is happening to children with autism is happening to all of us. There has been a rise in all manner of illnesses. People are dropping dead younger every year.  Still, many people are beginning to connect the dots. I believe autism will serve as a catalyst for change around the world. When you start messing with children, that's when you get people's attention. I will do for my child what I will not do for myself. I never thought I would be making homemade probiotics or using exotic herbs and to my surprise its working. Who would have thought that relief from autism would be found in natural things and not drugs. I realize now my thinking was twisted. I wonder who was responsible for that.
    As for my credentials, i'll just say this for those who need it. I am a child of God. I am lovingly wiping the pooh of autism off  my feet and lovingly handed the paper towel to anyone aligned enough to receive it.
