Witnessing a Miracle Part 2
Another wonderful day for Aidan. This is a different child I am witnessing. He is so aware of his surroundings. He requests for me to interact and play with him. He is following directions and is overall feeling so much better. One of our recent RDI objectives for Aidan is to imitate. We have been working on him imitating Craig and I. This video shows how he did it! Three times he imitated me. This is another example of how quickly Aidan is progressing. Our RDI consultant is amazed at the changes she is seeing. It is truly miraculous. I have attached a video of Aidan imitating me.

Witnessing a Miracle
After about a week of the b-12 shots we are seeing huge changes in Aidan. It is like witnessing these little miracles everyday. Today he said "banana" when wanting a banana. I also asked him to say ball and he did! His comprehension has just skyrocketed these last few weeks and he is understanding so much of what I say. I thank God everyday for answering so many prayers in healing my precious son. It truly is watching a miracle.
I've attached a video to show how much more vocal Aidan has become. I know I am using many directives in this video, I just really wanted to capture him saying "banana". He didn't say it like earlier today, but I still want to share this video because it is so encouraging to see the change in Aidan.

Turning the Corner
Eating his dinner after a pool day. In a Chair!!!
I think we have turned the corner with the nystatin. The week of craziness has ended and the results are SIGNIFICANT! Aidan's comprehension has skyrocketed these last few days. He even sat down and ate his dinner at a table. Today he sat down in a chair for a good twenty minutes while playing at his table. I couldn't believe it. This is coming from a child who could not sit still for less than a minute in my arms, let alone a chair. I am shouting for someone to grab a camera so I can capture this. I know Gail our RDI consultant would have a huge smile across her face if she saw this! I did capture this on camera and the photo is above.

I also am so excited because our B-12 shots came in the mail today. I think that this is really going to help Aidan with his language and he will start talking. It is so amazing to watch this recovery taking place before my very eyes and I know that it is because of all the prayers, love and support we have received from so many! For anyone who is reading this and thinking to yourself "what is nystatin and b-12 shots????".
I would recommend reading "Healing and Preventing Autism" by Dr. Jerry Kartzinel and Jenny McCarthy. A complete guide on prevention and healing.

Ten steps forward!
After Wednesday I was preparing myself for a couple weeks of wild child. Today I had a pleasant surprise. Aidan had a fantastic day! We went over to my sister's this afternoon and not once did Aidan play in the dirt. His usual consuming behavior was gone! I couldn't believe it. He played with Elizabeth, followed my directions, and comprehended so much! I felt like I was truly beginning to be his mommy, his guide who he trusts and looks to for direction. I felt so encouraged. I thank God for days like this because they really give me that extra push I need to keep fighting the fight. To see that all we are doing is working!
