Additonal biomedical vitamins 



She has taken these before, but I had to order them because she ran our of these vitamins. 
They cost money but are worth it. I go all the way natural with my daughter and refuse to give
her medications. With her ABA Therapy services at home, private speech therapy weekly that we take her with my husband and her Summer ESY program that she loves and they told me that her speech improved more and I told them because she has private speech therapy now. 

I felt so happy to hear my child improves; I don't expect a cure ... I just want to hear that he is better and that makes me feel proud that I am doing a great job in all these years and my husband is helping and learning how to deal with my daughter as in her gluten-free diet and no dairy and plus accompanies me to all her speech therapies and is involved in her health care which makes me happy to know that I have someone who is not her father, but that wants to know how to learn about Autism and everything. 

Chiropractic care also helps too; which I take her weekly because it makes her feel good.

I am a parent of a child with Autism 


I have a daughter who has autism; it's difficult because for years I blamed myself for her diagnosis and thought I did something wrong. Going to therapy I have learned that it's not my fault and have to let go of that blame that I have. 

I have done the impossible to go in Autism mom chat groups and talk to her teachers and now she is finally starting her 2nd session of private speech therapy weekly. I'm gluten - free with her and refuse to medicate my child. I take her to the chiropractic weekly and always keep communication via phone and email with her school and attend all her meetings. What my daughter was before she has changed a lot and is not as worse as before when she first had her diagnosis of autism (ASD).

With her gluten Free I make sure there is no contamination with the foods we eat and I read all labels and several websites on what contains gluten. I give her Omega capsules and vitamin D plus multivitamins that are gluten Free and buy them from her biomedical doctor. I'm trying as a parent to be the best I can be for my child and of course take care of my other child who is okay and talks too much . 

All I wish is for her words to come out more and for her to express herself more. I know there is no cure but I just baby steps then we will see how it goes. 

My worry is that she won't be able to express herself and half a life on her own later on. I want to improve and I'm doing the best I can . These vitamins and thins are costly but money will never be a issue for my child . I also give her probiotic that are expensive but the best. 

She is going to be 12 years old soon and I just know she can and I believe she can more with this private speech therapy plus school and plus summer school they have for autism kids here. 

Any moms that have ideas or stuff that they want to share are welcomed to let me know and I am a person that is not a doctor but can share my experience with my child. I did cut dairy from her and no sweets or sugar stuff . 

I will share more in the days .

Benefits in going to a Chiropractic for a special needs child or in general

Why should my child visit a Chiropractic?

      Many people wonder why an autistic child should visit a chiropractic doctor? I direct the focus on an autistic child because in their childhood years, they are not able to explain to mom or dad if they have a back pain, neck pain or any type of discomfort in their body. That is why it is beneficial to visit a chiropractic because they are the professional ones that can manipulate and make adjustments to any type of person or condition. 
      I read in the internet and found a website on a chiropractic who works in Canada and made this blog on why children with special needs should visit them, this is what Dr. Caldwell-Chu wrote:

      The importance of chiropractic care is essential to children with disabilities. These kids often have hypotonia (low muscle tone), poor posture, decreased body awareness and as a result have more pronounced musculoskeletal problems such as restrictions on movement and stiff joints. Furthermore autistic kids often have sensory stimulus deficits, either hypo (too little) or hyper (too much) sensitive. Receiving the proper chiropractic adjustments can be like hitting the information reset button on the nervous system. Either calming or turning up the nervous system when the body requires.
    Children with developmental disorders can benefit from chiropractic treatment focused to improve joint mobility, gross motor training, core muscle strengthening, vestibular (balance) exercise and sensory stimulation. However, chiropractic care is only part of the treatment puzzle. Other avenues of care including biochemical, nutritional, cognitive and emotional components should be addressed to offer the best possible outcome for the patient.

     My daughter Angelina used to go to the chiropractic before, but I stopped taking her because that doctor was a person "not to have patience with kids with autism". I am happy "now" to have found a chiropractic doctor who is very patient with my daughter and who also has this new machine that actually scans your body (in sections), which lets him know which part of the body needs adjustment. Love it!! Angelina showed him where in her neck and lower back, but it was great that the machine gave him a second confirmation that "she needed an adjustment really bad". Lol Angelina left the office so happy and every time her neck hurts, she lets me know that she wants to go the "the doctor for neck". I get so excited every time she talks or expresses anything that she would never do before. 

Anyways you guys... Good night and hope you found this post interesting to read!!
