Autism Recovery Video !!!

It has been exactly three years since we started Kainoa on biomedical treatments (per the Defeat Autism Now protocol) and an aggressive and intensive ABA (Applied Behavioral Analysis) program. We are thankful and grateful that Kai has made enormous progress and although, he continues on his special diet (gluten free / casein free - "no wheat, no milk") and takes a bunch of supplements, Kai is what we called "in managed recovery".

Hey guys! Thanks for the nice comments. We decided years ago not to listen to naysayers and downers and chose to stay positive and committed to helping our son. He has been on a GFCF diet for 3 years, has done antivirals, antifungals, antibiotics, etc; have done 250 hours of mHBOT and chelated him for heavy metals. Aggressive biomed combined with an intensive ABA program for 3 years has brought miraculous improvements to the point of no longer having an autism diagnosis. You should see him now

Please do not pay attention to the ignorant that posted negative critics, your son have millions of chances now to be happier thanks to what you did. I wish my 4 years old can do what yours was able to do at 6. We are trying hard also, I hope it works. Thanks for keeping the hope alive

Aloha AEJCUS, HOPE IS ALL WE HAVE FOR THEM !!!! KEPT FIGHTING FOR YOUR KID!!! GOD BLESS YOU GUYS.. ALOHA, A VERY PROULD DADDY : )

As a parent of a 5 y/o Autistic child, having worked in the medical field, majored in Biology & graduated with honors; I appreciate what the biomedical intervention is doing with these kids; my son just started on biomedical, I have a long way to go; I only wish we could afford it better! Ignore the negative; embrace the positive; Blessings to you and your beautiful boy

Your boy is gorgeous and must feel so much better (physically and therefore mentally) for your decision to pursuit biomedical means to heal his body from this disorder, which IS very much a medical issue. Good for you,everyone who is naysaying is throwing sour grapes. They should pick them up and make wine for their own healing or just say nothing.

You did a wonderful thing in healing your boy when no one else can give answers. He is worth it!!

@paulwady I wonder why you are so invested in this illness. Anyone who has struggled with self expression, with or without Autism, would be happy at the prospect of freedom to express oneself with more ease. Why aren't you? Why do you fight so hard and with such hostility at the prospect that recovery is real?

Well, go ahead, attack me again. I don't care, I really don't. The numbers of healthy children grows every day, no matter who says they can't.

great video, very inspiring for us that are starting this journey with our almost 2 year old son.

@popcornwbutter Point 2 is a paradox for my kind. In order to have point 1, you have to sacrifice your autistic individuality.

I am not any ordinary autistic. I make a study of all this & know older autistics in neurodiverse politics. I suspect you make money out of all this, pedaling miracle cures? Autreat? Autism Right Movement UK? Autreat? Autistics with phd's? Oh yes.

You have no idea, do you? OOH, THEY MUST BE CURED! Haha.

Ask any of us who we inherited it from. Mercury/vaccines=crap.

[paulwady]

@popcornwbutter Well your Doctor is a fool or a liar.

Everyone can learn. Simple. Autistics learn to relate. Simple. What you think is recovery, is simply growing up to act and feel neurotypical. My wife and I did it, loads of us do it throughout our lives.

You do not know any adults with autism, do you? You only know about kids doing neurotypical impressions. I have spent 5 years in a major autism charity. Kids, teenagers, adults, reading, you name it.

Do you make a living from this?

[popcornwbutter]

@paulwady I define recovery as (1) indistiguishable from one's peers, (2) having uninhindered personal and social expression and development, without sacrificing indivuality.

Dr. Martha Herbert (perhaps the most presigious neurologist in the US ) has stated that autism is not, "hard wired", ( not something a kid is born with), but harm from the environment happening after birth. She reached this conclusion after an extensive, five year study of cadaver brains and MRI's. Recovery is real.

[paulwady]

@popcornwbutter Also, I would assume none of these children are teenagers who can relate to the whole thing yet. Give it time, the perspective I am using will become apparent.

I speak from the opposite end of the same experience you are at the start of. I'm autistic & with teenagers & adults. You are kids.

Well, good luck. Sounds like great stuff. Makes parents happy! Sadly in the UK, we don't live in Disneyland. x

[paulwady]

@popcornwbutter This is surreal.

You learn to relate. You upgrade yours social skills. You can certainly look and act better, as if neurotypical.

Actually I personally am living proof of what you are saying, as are many people I can introduce you to. Sure.

I quite believe you are telling the truth.  But they are not recovered in the way you mean. Just relating and acting in acceptable ways.

Please consider this in future. Good stuff - but don't be fooled by us. It is all perspective.

@tommychorman808 You just rock. Thanks for sharing your lives with us!
