Chelation is on Hold

Well, once again, I have to stop "Chelation Therapy" for Mickie. I don't know if I will try again, anytime soon. He seems to become almost psychotic and terribly obsesive during those three days on, but now he doesn't do well during the 11 days off either.

I recall that during the summer I stopped all his supplements and meds for two weeks and he seemed to improve so much and finally gain some weight. I think he needs a long breack. His DAN is not going to agree, but in the end; I know him better then anyone else, and he needs a long break.

Tonight I had the opportunity to get away. I went to an art show opening, while my mom watched Mickie. For two hours I was just me and not the mercury mom or Mickie's mom, instead I was as any other person there, lost in a sea of artists.

I guess artists are the only people besides the autism moms, that I can related too now days.

When I got home I got a dose of reality. My mom said that Mickie practically kicked his respite worker out of the house, then when it was time for his dinner, he wouldn't let my mom turn on any lights in the kitchen, so she had to pretend, to look for something in the refrigerator, so she could see the supplements and medicines, he was supposed to take with his dinner. He then refuse to let her dress him and then took her by the hand and walked her to my little art studio and she had to sit on the couch for an hour until I got home.

Oh well, back to reality.
