Traduco questo msg in risposta al quesito " Qualcuno ha provato terapie per Adulti Autistici ? "posto dalla sorella di una donna autistica severa , ricoverata in un centro di accoglienza , di 43 anni a beneficio di tutti i miei amici che devono affrontare il problema dell'autismo in eta' adulta con relative problematiche

Don't stop trying or give up hope. .. dice Cheryl e voglio dirvi anche io :
NON SMETTETE DI PROVARE E DI SPERARE !
Invito invece i genitori di bambini piu' piccoli a leggere con attenzione la frase finale del msg .
Cio' che Cheryl dice ci fu fatto presente anche delle terapiste norvegesi di GM ....meglio considerarlo.....
Un bacio   

Ciao Marian,
ricordo di aver letto anni fa su un giornale locale un articolo su una donna che aveva un fratello adulto con autismo.Lui era molto pericoloso per se e per gli altri. Lei senti' della dieta GFCF e decise di dargli la possibilita' di un tentativo. L' aggressivita' smise e lui miglioro'.Lui e' ancora autistico , ma miglioro'. Non smettere di provare o di sperare.
I bisogni sensoriali di mio figlio diminuirono enormemente quando noi trattammo la candida e iniziammo a dare i supplementi .Ora quando si autostimola , so che il mostro - candida sta rialzando minacciosa la testa. Inoltre , mio figlio ( che ha soli 7 anni ) mi sta riferendo cose che gli erano state dette o fatte anni fa , quando noi pensavamo che non avesse alcuna consapevolezza dell'ambiente circostante. Quindi non smettere di provare a comunicare con lei - lei forse sente ogni parola che dici
la miglior fortuna
cheryl
