1. My name is _____
2. I like to _____
3. Grandma is _____
For number one he writes "Michael" (excellent). For number two he writes "talk". TALK? WTF. And he came up with the answer so quickly. Here is a kid who didn't call me "mommy" until he was six. Unbelievable. Oh and for the last one, I read "Grandma is blank" and he wrote "blik". LOL. He was trying to write the word "blank". He didn't understand I wanted him to fill in a word. But, the best part he is tries to sound out the words and write them.
Anyway, Chelation went great last Friday and it only took one try.

I've seen a big difference in talking the last few days. I was thinking recently that he hasn't surprised us much in the last 2 weeks or so, but the last couple of days- I see it. We went shopping at the mall on Saturday and then visited friends (who have 3 boys with autism) and Michael did soooo well.
The other day I came home and Michael screamed "Mommy's home. I love you" and opened up his arms for a hug. I tell you honestly, it was like a dream. A real dream. I wish I had it on video because I would loop it on this website and watch it all day long.
Final note- we got Michael's blood work back from the lab and everything was perfect. His liver and kidneys are working fine. We should be doing another challenge soon.
