[QUOTE="buddy, post: 467348, member: 12886"] While I admire Jenny McArthy (Sp?) for her devotion to her son and her desire to help, she does make me crazy for her claims to have cured her autistic son too. She says that, then the clips of things show he is very protected, he still is rigid etc. She is so sure of the things she did and of her opinions about vaccines...even in the face of new evidence. There are kids who are "cured", but their Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) symptoms are secondary to something that is curable...like kids who have Celiac's. If it is extreme, they may be getting no nutrition, having seizures, lots of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) symptoms and once they are on a gluten free diet, wow, recovery-- if there has not been brain damage from the amount of time they sufffered. There are other illnesses that can be cured, but MHO is that while kids may move in and out of specific kinds of Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) diagnostically during their lifetime, (different spots on the spectrum) they are not actually cured. Can get pretty good though, and have very productive and happy lives so absolutely worth the effort to work on things. The truth is most kids make some progress if you work with them. I feel terrible when people think they have to use all of their resources on a particular special diet (worth a try, but I have seen people continue when there is no sign of improvement, with such hope that it will cure their loved one, if it works for someone I would absolutely continue, smile) or specific programs which may help but so may other things that do not use all of the resources of the family. To each his own, but she is a public figure and from what she says her son is still doing, he still has Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) symptoms. [/QUOTE]
