Greetings
from the Founder
 Dear Parents,
I am the mother of an 11 year-old autistic boy. He is my first born. Eight years ago I learned from an
esteemed expert at UCSF that my son was a very low functioning autistic
child with no hope of recovery. Her words still ring in my ears – “your
son is severely autistic. I do not want you to have any hope that this
will change. I recommend that you put him in an institution and go home
and have another child.”
That was the day that I started on the journey that
has taken here, to CARE Clinics, today. She was WRONG. There is always
hope. It is not just me, but across the entire
field of autism many dedicated professionals are using a new language,
one of hope.
Autism, like many childhood afflictions whose
incidences are rising, is a condition with biomedical underpinnings. It
is not a behavioral disorder, although it has many behavioral disorder
symptoms. It is a biomedical disorder. The problem to date has been
that the biomedical aspects manifest themselves in as many ways as
there are degrees “on the spectrum”. People are looking for one answer,
where instead autism has many – but each child, has their one answer.
The key is to break it down into the specific parts for the particular
child.
It is increasingly accepted that autism, and other
afflictions, have genetic roots. The
child is “predisposed”. When genes meet environment in a particular
way, the result is a breakdown in the immune system, the detoxification
systems, the metabolism, etc... It happens in
different ways, in different severities with different children, but
the diagnostic community still labels them all Autistic Spectrum
Disorders. When a genetic predisposition meets an environmental insult
on a certain point in a child’s developmental timeline, things get
broken. By looking at the underlying biomedical data and genetic
profiles, we can begin to repair and reverse the unchecked course of
the deviated development. We can bring the child on to the path to
recovery. We are beginning to see miracles.
The mainstream medical community,
the AMA, the pediatricians and the medical researchers are all
withholding opinion. It is the nature of our cautious system to perform
endless clinical trials and double-blinds and
long-term tracking studies. The legal system and the insurance systems
are built this way to protect the public. This is great for children
yet to be born, those that are two generations out. It does nothing
however for my son, for the current generation of innocent children and
families suffering under the tremendous physical, emotional and
financial burdens of autism.
At CARE Clinics we have studied the latest and
greatest treatments for autism for the past eight years. Things have
been steadily progressing but a integrated
view that builds on all breakthroughs and advances has been elusive. As
with all industries, politics and vested interests sometimes stifle progress.
We believe the answer is in front of us and we are working with
families who are interested in taking advantage of the latest advances
in the treatment of autism as a disease with biomedical underpinnings,
many of which have accepted protocols for treating them. We are seeing
great results by breaking down the disease into its modular parts, and
treating those with accepted protocols, by sequencing and combining
them in such a way so as to treat each factor in a logical prioritized
way, we can overcome this disease without subjecting our children to
untested, unsafe drugs and science.
There is hope for our children and it gets brighter
every day. Please contact us to learn more about our treatments and
services for your child.
Sincerely yours,
Kazuko
From Austin, TX
