Nathan Talks
Nathan is going to be 7 in August.
He is Autistic with mutism.
He has not spoken since he was 14 mths old.
One of my friends suggested a couple of weeks back that I put Nathan on 1 oz of Isacleanse. She said some studies had been done and they were doing great things with just small amounts of the Isacleanse.
It is totally herbal so I started adding 1 oz in his juice in the morning.
Nathan sucked it up with no complaints which was nice.
Within 4 days, he started having regular bowel movements by himself.
Yay, no more holding him to give him glycerin suppositories. (Nathan would hold his bowels for 7 days).
A few days later, he climbed on my lap one night and wrapped his arms around my neck.
He looked into my eyes and said very slowly and carefully " I Love You".
Then he put his cheek to my lips to indicate that I was to kiss him. Which I did, over and over again.
I have waited over 5 yrs to hear him say that to me again.
5 Yrs. It felt like forever.
He has told me that he loves me every day since then.
He currently has a vocabulary of about 50 words, some clearer than others. He sounds a little like Helen Keller, but, I am sure that will improve in time.
Nathan, I love you more.
