Chelation Summary

Chelation is highly controversial. I didn’t like the idea. My sister (critical care nurse) and brother (chemist) warned me not to do it. The research I did several years ago highlighted kidney and liver damage, even death. The cost was prohibitive.

We tried other methods to help the boys’ health, but nothing was removing the metals in which they constantly tested high: aluminum, mercury, lead, arsenic, uranium, are but a few.
In July my husband and I decided we would try it with a very careful eye on the boys. Nothing outrageous happened. We were encouraged. Within a few weeks, Ryan and Nick were talking more. Within the next few months both were much more active in school. Class presentations, dances, even dating!
Would I recommend chelation? Yes, but with absolute caution and after all other methods were exhausted. It is very expensive, and I can’t deny that I’m putting meds in my kids. Consequently, we are not continuing chelation at this point. We are happy with the results thus far.
To see actual progress details and dates, please read the blog entries in August, Sept, and Oct.

I am: a) happily married for over 27 years; b) mom to five boys, three diagnosed with autism; c) a home schooling mom; and d) self-employed as a piano teacher. There is no trace of autism on my side or my husband's side of the family tree. Until nine years ago, my youngest four all had disabilities, the youngest three with autism. Five years ago my youngest did not "qualify" for the autism label, rendering him "recovered". My second oldest also "tested" out of his speech delay. My husband and I attribute these successes to the care of many family members and therapists, change in diets, not following mainstream medicine yet listening to medical advice, doing our own research, and most importantly, lots of prayer.
