Good news of the day: 10-year-old boy on the spectrum who was 'too good' in class, like a little saint, just quiet, is now attracting attention by being silly and making his classmates laugh! Although this has been annoying to the teachers, mom and I both thought it was progress as he is more outgoing and engaging now. This was after two months on Prevnar 13 clearing :)

Great news of the day: 11-year-old girl on the spectrum, under care since November, has made some good progress.
She is more aware overall. She can now repeat and spontaneously use short 2–3-word phrases, before she only repeated and use one word at a time. She can now request specific videos on Youtube by asking for them, ie 'I want Mary has a little lamb'. She is much quicker to respond to instructions. She is not pinching and biting family members as much. Obsession with water play is reduced with Amniotic fluid remedy. She has started to engage in pretend play with a doll, having conversations with it, feeding it, carrying it, this is brand new since MMR detox started recently. She has dolls and stuffies but never pretend-played with them before. She has been able to sit quietly and play for 15-20 minutes for the first time, before she was always in motion, stimming and running around. Very nice!

Good news of the day: 10-year-old boy who suddenly developed type 1 diabetes at age 6 and needs insulin has responded positively to Carcinosin 30C once a week for the past month. Mom noted more stable blood sugars for about three days after a dose. We're increasing it to twice a week now. Quite interesting. Has anyone else here seen positive effects of homeopathy in type 1 diabetes?

Sharing an article I wrote for the Weston Price Foundation on homeopathy for va$$*ine injury some time ago. As current as always.

Perhaps of interest! A webinar event with Prof George Vithoulkas, one of the best and most influential teachers of homeopathy ever. He had a profound impact on me for sure.

Good news of the day: 15-year-old girl with several persistent plantar warts which had been treated repeatedly with liquid nitrogen and just recurred had a great response to Calcarea carbonica 200C, 3 doses in 24 hours. Mom wrote: " I wanted to give you an update about E, the left foot wart cluster resolved in two weeks, yay !!! Right foot cluster is fading." She only had the one day of dosing back on January 12.
Calcarea is not necessarily a remedy for warts, but it was a good constitutional fit for this lovely young girl. Her food likes and interests were very Calcarea-like. Nothing like a little tune-up for the vital force!

I just watched the documentary 'The Plastic Detox' on Netflix and decided to share it. A real eye opener on just how many issues there are with plastics and their ingredients and how it is affecting in particular fertility as this was the main story in the doc, although we know that there are links with autism and many other health challenges as well. Very well done and so relatable. I'm definitely detoxing my home and products a lot more after watching this! Have you seen it and what do you all think?

What are microplastics doing to our health? The dangers of using plastics have an unprecedented health toll on fertility, puberty, and much more. This docume...

Great success report and insights from my dear colleague, Cate Morgan:

"It’s been almost 2 years since we started our healing journey with you and my motherhood have never been happier!
It feels so good to take my kids to a math tutor instead of endless therapies!
And yes, "I" now is my “difficult” child because "R" is basically recovered. Now I have “more time” to focus on other family members. I remember days when my entire world was "R" only and only "R".

I wanted to share this fantastic update, as "R" is basically recovered! I remember he just wanted to go to school like his twin brother "I" and he has!

On top of homeopathy, Mum did a variety of therapies like Integrating Primitive Reflexes and Myofascial release. These work really well alongside homeopathy.

Message me for a list of complementary therapies that this Mum did add in! She compiled it into a nice document for me!

What I really feel helped "R" get recovered quickly was what Mum didn't do.

Mum didn't add in antibiotics, anti-fungals, medications, or supplements on top of homeopathy, and I truly believe that made a huge difference!

I often see meds or antibiotics added in alongside homeopathic care, and I get it, we want to do everything we can for our kids to recover them.

Honestly though, this not only muddies the picture that I see as a homeopath, but it's a stressor on the child's already overtaxed system.

There is a lot of back and forth between what the meds are forcing the body to do, and what the remedies are reminding the body to do. It's a constant tug of war.

There is no right or wrong here, just a lot of messages being sent to your child's body at once.

Where do I see the best success? When you pick one modality at a time, and stay with it for at least 6 months.

I have so many kids that I work with who are on 25 supplements daily, Leucovorin comes on, then a few rounds of antibiotics are prescribed, and more, then homeopathy is added in. It's just too much for any one body to handle. Let alone a body who already has compromised detox pathways.

Recently, I've introduced a new policy for families beginning care with me. I'm asking that no new medication or antibiotics are brought on within the first 6 months (existing meds are ok).

This policy is there because these kiddos are already under such stress. We need to lighten the load, and not add to it further.

Sharing a case from 2022 of a little girl with aggression who scratched her family members and hated to have her nails but, explaining that those were her claws and she needed them to protect herself. A little remedy made from the milk of a very special animal made a big difference!
