I will not be updating this site anymore. I will leave it up for a while so people can move to the new site.

I’m sorry I don’t update this blog anymore. We’ve had a busy couple of years with daily therapy, new treatments, starting real school, etc. But, I am moving this blog into a real blog and starting it today. I’ll post back here once the new site is up and ready. I keep track of viewers and I still get so many views on this blog that I couldn’t delete it. So, why not make it a real site?

We are seeing some interesting things with CEASE therapy and I want to share this information. So please stay tuned! I hope to get the new blog up and finished this week!

Ruby’s doing well. We are starting with CEASE therapy. Perhaps you’ll see a new blog up at some point.

My father has 2 honorary grandchildren, I’ll call them Lori and Zack. Their grandparents passed away many years ago and the one grandmother they do have lives far away. My father and his wife were asked to be Lori and Zack’s grandparents. Their mother was a very close friend of mine a long time ago. This is not the problem. I wish it ended there and we lived in a happy world together, but we don’t.

Without getting too far into the past, I will just talk about what is happening with Clara and her visits to my father’s. I should mention that my dad and his wife do not offer to take Ruby out ever. Ruby makes my dad uncomfortable because she is always naked at home. Ruby’s 6 remember. I can understand that they don’t know how to interact with Ruby, but they were offered by our team of therapists to have one on one learning sessions to learn how to play with Ruby and communicate with Ruby. My dad said he would only do this if my mother did as well. So, it hasn’t happened and they’ve never brought it up again. They only pick up Clara and that happens once every 2 or 3 weeks.

Yesterday, I brought Clara over to their place. While I was there my dad told me that he sees Zack a lot and can see a huge difference between Zack and Clara. He said ‘you wouldn’t believe the stuff that comes out of his mouth.’ I told him that Clara is a very smart kid as well and others have commented on this. He said that Zack is more independent and knows how to do so much more. He also said he thinks it’s because Zack has an older sister to teach him things and Clara doesn’t. He also said that I probably baby Clara more because she’s like my first child. Actually, Ruby is my first child, but my dad doesn’t see Ruby as human.

Anyway, I agreed that I probably do baby Clara a bit more than others because Clara has a lot more to deal with in life than Zack does. Clara doesn’t get to go out very much because we can’t take Ruby to many places. So, she’s home a lot. It took her a little longer than some kids to be social, but she’s only 3.5 and is now playing with other kids. I have seen kids who are 3 and still in cribs and eating in high chairs. My dad is comparing Clara to one kid he sees on a regular basis. The women at the gym daycare have commented on how smart Clara is and they see a lot of kids everyday.

This isn’t the only time he’s said negative things about Clara. Since moving back to my hometown he’s asked me why Clara is always so pale. Another time he told me that he doesn’t think Clara is growing properly. He’s said several times that he’s never seen any kid do certain things that Clara does. The list goes on. He has never said anything positive about Clara. It’s always what she can’t do. Clara is about as neuro typical as they come.

I know when I’m not there, he is probably making comments to Clara about what she doesn’t or can’t do. I don’t want this negativity affecting her. I don’t want him to bring her self esteem down the way he brought mine down for my entire life. Clara is too young to notice right now. But, she is a smart kid and it won’t take long before she gets hurt by something he says to her.

So, I’m asking for advice from anyone who reads this blog. Is it time to cut these people from our lives? Would it be wrong to deny Clara her grandfather?

I’m adding a video of Clara from a year ago. She was 2.5 at the time this video was taken. She is 3.5 now. You can see how well she spoke at that age and how smart she was.

Thanks for reading

We have completed 94 rounds of Andy Cutler chelation. I did a few more rounds during homeopathy. I saw a little bit from it, but not a lot. I’m sure I have to keep going and will. I know chelation is needed.

We have started something new with Ruby and she is really responding. A lot of homeopaths don’t agree with this type of Homeopathy or Isopathy, our former Homeopath didn’t. I stumbled upon this about a month ago. I found it very interesting and when you know how Homeopathy works, it makes sense…it did to me anyway.

So, I ordered the LM1. The evening of Ruby’s first dose of the Thimerosal, she didn’t scream while having her hair washed. I didn’t want to put too much into it being the remedy because it was way too soon and I didn’t want to be disappointed. The entire day she was calm, no noises and no screaming. We continue to see improvement. It’s little things, she wants to try different foods (not a lot, but a few new things), she is trying to form sentences, she is doing amazingly well in IBI therapy. They have no idea that we’re doing this and have been constanty giving us good feedback.

She is just communicating well, the screaming is just about gone, she walks on her flat feet more often and the biggest thing that happened this week was she had a fever. Ruby has had one fever in her life and that was more than 2 years ago. Wednesday she came home early from therapy, had a pretty high fever and before bed had her first real throw up. I know most people would wonder why this makes us happy, but to us it means her immune system is finally working. Ruby never got sick as a toddler, never.

Ruby is just  more connected, I feel like she needs this Thimerosal remedy to clear the damage that was done from the flu shot in utero.

I am considering merging this blog with my regular one, but i’m not sure. if anyone is still reading this blog…follow me over there!

We’ve done 6 doses of her remedy so far. I am pretty sure it’s the right remedy. We are very early in this process.
