When my son was three, he was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder Level 3. He was diagnosed and quickly labeled "most severe." By 3 and a half his doctor was recommending some pretty heavy duty medications to control his behaviors, including hitting himself and head banging, as well as extreme meltdowns. I was picking him up from school early and rushing him ro the doctor because he seemed like he was sick and in pain pretty much every other week. Every time the doctor recommended medication, something in my gut just said that this was not the answer. One day as I stood crying in her office, she asked me how long I was going to fight her on this. My response? As long as I need to. I left her office and went searching for an alternative method. This is when I heard about heavy metals and the havoc they can wreak on a young child's body. Soon after a friend recommended me to Sheila. Speaking to Sheila, my husband and I decided to move forward with the hair testing and custom supplements that help naturally push heavy metals out of the system. When the results came in, we were speechless. He had high levels of lead, cadmium, arsenic and mercury. Sheila set up a virtual meeting with us to go over the results and talk about next steps. We started this journey, and months later we are seeing an entirely different child. His gut health is better and constipation is gone. The self harm and tantrums have disappeared and our son is his happy quirky self. Sheila is the an answered prayer and we truly feel like she loves our son as much as we do and they've never even met! If you are are questioning whether or not to do this, please do! She is truly a friend of those on the spectrum.
