Good Morning C.,

2 Things for you:

1: Therapy
I don't know your religious background. I am metaphysical. So metaphysics is not a religion, it's a thought. If you have heard of Agape International Spiritual Center in Culver City, California, they have counselors who work on a sliding scale. You can visit Agapelive.com to find out more about them. Again, it is not religious. If you like Wayne Dyer, Louise Hay, etc. as authors then Agape will have the correct counseling for you.

2. NAET.com
Many physical problems that we have are a result of a problem that is overlooked in Western Medicine. I have had allergies my entire life and have suffered many many physical problems because of allergies. Last year, at 37 years old, I discovered NAET. NAET.com are a group of allergists around the world who ELIMINATE allergies. My allergies are severe and I have an entire list a full page long of all the physical manifestations of allergies. Physical manifestations that I have suffered for my entire life. Since my treatments, I have noticed many changing for the better in my health. And I have lost 20 pounds. (One of the problems that I had was weight gain - due to allergies). I just go to my allergy treatments once a week, and my allergies are being eliminated and the physical problems that manifested from allergies are disappearing!

I highly recommend that you log onto site NAET.com and find an allergist in your area. Findings show that autsim and other mental problems are just a manifestation of severe allergies. You can also go to Amazon.com, find three books, 1. Prescription for Nutritional Healing by Balch, 2. Say Goodbye to Illness, by Dr. Devi Nambudripad, 3. Say Goodby to Autism by Dr. Devi Nambudripad.

If you have any quesitons I can answer them for you, my email is ____@____.com, BUT I strongly recommend that you just jump in the water. Go to NAET.com locate an allergist near your home and have your children and yourself tested for allergies.
If you are in the Westchester, CA 90045 area, I am currently seeing Sheri Weitz, R.D., she is an NAET allergists and has much experience treating children with autism through NAET, and she is successful!

Be Well.

Hi C.

You obviously have a lot on your plate so I don't know if you have any spare time to work with your daughter yourself but if you do there is an AMAZING technique called EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) which could go a long way to helping all of you. You can learn a bit about it (there is an introductory video) and download the manual for FREE at

www.emofree.com

It is very easy and simple to learn (though mastering it takes a lifetime) The best thing is that as a tool, once you teach it to your daughter she can use it for herself whenever she feels the need and let me tell you that is the most empowering thing ever.

It has helped me and my family beyond words and I have even caught my six year old daughter using it on herself.

There is also a list of practitioners by area and you could find one near you who might be able to do a reduced rate.

Am happy to discuss more with you if you are interested.

I wish you the very best of luck
