| No more symptoms of autism
Today we went to the DEC to have our son evaluated for the second time. He scored above average on his intelligence tests and the team said he no longer has any symptoms of autism The only thing that stood out was his excellent behavior. I was very proud of him. He was not allowed to have his parents in the room with him and he worked so well with all the different people. The first time he was evaluated he was given a diagnosis of PDD at age 29 months. Now after 18 months since the last diagnosis and about 11 months of ABA and he is above average in his IQ tests. The psychologist told me that sometimes children outgrow their symptoms of autism and that is apparently what happened with your son.
Here are the things that helped my child. We took out all dairy from his diet. We went to speech therapy 3 times a week for 10 months. We did ABA out of our house 15 hours a week and he continued to go to a regular pre school. We also give him B6, magnesium and DMG daily. I do not believe that you can cure autism, but I do believe that some children with early intervention can be indistinguishable from their peers.
