Almost first week on her biomedical treatments

I totally refuse to listen to the school or any hospital to tell me that my daughter needs to be on medication. It works in the beginning, but then it has bad side effects and makes her autism worse and it makes me as a mom question : Why did I do this to my child?

I have started on giving her the vitamins from her DAN doctor and mb12 injections; it is a lot to give her but they are good for her and I totally stopped temporarly the apple juice and no junk food. I am 80 percent dairy free but I am getting there.

It has been difficult for my child because she is the one that has this diagnosis, but then again it has been difficult and tough on me that I am her mother and it makes me sad and have a lot of anxiety watching my daughter struggle.

She is calm now and it has been like 4 days with this, I see her less stressed and very calm which is great for me. I did take her yesterday to the chiropractic to have her adjusted which I am going to be taking her 3 times per week after I finish working.

Let's see how the week goes with my daughter and my goal is not perfection but just better. 

To believe or not to believe, that is the question !

To believe or not to believe

    If you asked me who I put my trust on, I would say in the medical system. I believed in every medical doctor and neurologist that saw my daughter. I am grateful that I reached this far with my daughter, once she was diagnosed with autism I checked every doctor and place that she went and I made sure they had great references.
   
    During that time that my daughter was being evaluated and seen by doctors, I had to convince my husband that it was the best decision to make in going about treatments for Angelina. I had his support, but he was still in that denial stage. I know it was difficult to accept that our daughter had autism, but I was not going to waste time in thinking "why me or why her?". There was things that I did by alone and just did not consult him at all, I felt that I didn't have the need to ask for his approval and as the time goes by I would say something. 

     My daughter improved in many ways during the years, but the only problem with medicines is that once your body is used to the drug, there is a point that it just does not do anything anymore. It is strange how our body works or reacts to medicine over time.
