Today Jonathan continued to show signs of regression. And it is very frustrating, especially after reading Jenny McCarthy’s book and watching her son on 20/20 (TV show). I hope that he comes out of this soon and makes another leap jump towards recovery. I have decided to start investigating other therapies outside of Yasko such as the high dosage Vitamin K and Vitamin A, adding DMPS suppositories next week, and more intense play therapies.
Characteristics observed this weekend:
- Toe walking when he is happy/excited
- Will not respond to his name unless we scream at him or touch him
- He is more hyper than normal
- He is repeating what he watches on TV or the computer as pretend instead of inventing something on his own (such as Green Eggs and Ham or pretending to be his Kindergarten teacher)
- He is not doing any pretend lately. Just wants to play with electronic toys or rough with Vanessa
- Very defiant
- Parallel plays with other kids instead of joining them in play
- Lost some of his eye contact
- Craving carb foods
I hope that this regression is temporary, perhaps due to the HBOT. We are going to visit his DAN! Doctor this week and I am going to discuss other alternatives with him.
