Subject: Update on BrockHello Jean,
We have been using the CD's now for about a month. We had to share a few extremely exciting new behaviors we've seen. About a week ago Brock told us about his first dream experience! He dreamt about our dog that recently passed away. Also this past weekend we were at a wedding and attended the wedding dance. Normally Brock would be very nervous about the speakers and microphone and people talking on the microphone. Also we generally would only be able to stay for maybe one song of the dance because Brock would cover his ears and be very distressed over the loud music. Well this weekend we danced!!! We danced and dance and danced and had a blast. Brock didn't once put his hands on his ears and was smiling dancing have a great time with everyone. He was so excited and relaxed. Amazing that one month of the CD's and he no longer has that sound sensory problem. This alone makes the CD's so worth every penny.Thank you!!

Jacob has had many moments of "language explosion." I have seen many positive advances (too many to note). I have always seen changes in Jacob after a night's break from the CD's. So far, this seems to be working. I will check back in again soon. Thanks Jean and Happy Anniversary....Four years of helping families...Wow! I pray these return blessings to you and yours! :)

Subject: Eli's progress
Dear Jean,
I'm writing to let you know of Eli's progress since we got the first of your c.d.s in the mail a couple of weeks ago the mail on Thursday, September 18th.
As I told you, my 7 year old son Eli has a history of a speech and language delay, processing issues, hyperactivity, and behavioral problems that have caused us a lot of difficulties, and he's had a lot of trouble at school (last year he had an I.E.P. in kindergarten and we were told that he should attend "special day" classes instead of being allowed to go on to 1st grade).
My son (who tested very high on a non-verbal I.Q. test) has not yet been clearly diagnosed by a medical professional whom I feel I can trust, although there's been speculation since he was 4 that he may have one or more of the following: autism, sensory processing disorder, bipolar disorder, ADHD, asperger's syndrome.
Fortunately, we changed schools and Eli is in a regular 1st grade class with a one on one aide where he is now finally doing better overall. The week that I got the package from you, Eli had "meltdowns" every day that week involving hitting, crying, etc,,except when I played your c.d.s on Thursday night and Friday morning, he went to school that day and had no problems whatsoever--a great day!
Since then we've seen a decrease in the "meltdown" incidents, and I've also recently gotten some test results back from the pediatric neurologist whom my (former) pediatrician refused to refer me to (she told me the tests would be a waste of my time and money, and my insurance would not cover it).
These tests show conclusively that my son has heavy metal poisoning, with a toxic level of both mercury and lead in his system. We are treating him for this, and I'm so relieved to be finally moving in a positive, healing direction!
Sincerely,
Melinda

Subject: Hello from Dante's mom!Hi Jean,
I meant to write you in a couple of weeks so as to be able to give you a better assessment of how the program is going for Dante (started on his 5th birthday, Oct. 7th), but I couldn't wait to give you at least a bit of an idea. First of all I must admit the following: I am so afraid that I am in a dream and that I will wake up and realize that none of this exists and Dante is back to where he was 1.5 weeks ago!
I say that with tears in my eyes because our journey has been a long one, filled with inconsistency in Dante's progress and utter frustration for Carlos and me.
I am an optimist, so I've usually thought one good day means the next one will only be better. But that has never been the case with Dante. That is why, even though I was very excited to get your CD's last week, I haven't told a soul about what we're doing with him. I figured that is the best test for the program, as so many people will notice if he (1) is indeed improving and (2) the changes last more than a week!
So interestingly enough, after 2 nights into the program, I had Dante's IEP meeting. His teacher and therapists were commenting on how cooperative and happy he had been for the last couple of days. How he was totally "ON". So eventually they asked, "are you doing anything different with him?" I smiled but told them that I would like to keep trying some "new things" for a bit before talking about them, and that I couldn't emphasize enough how important their daily feedback on Dante was, as it would let me know if what I am doing is working. They were dying to know but were totally thrilled to cooperate.
Jean, this conversation occurred exactly 7 days after Dante's teacher had been telling me that she really thought his head banging was a behavioral issue and that we may just have to accept that that's the way he is. It came 7 days after an intensely frustrating week for us with Dante having no focus and head banging randomly for no apparent reason (although I feel there's always a reason even though I may not know it). That frustrating week had me at my wit's end on Saturday, my most exhausted day of the week, and that is when I googled "remedy for head banging" and found you.
Anyway, I do intend to write you a clear list of observations on Dante after I've given the program a couple of weeks. For now I will say the following:
· I am delighted to see my husband raising the volume on the environment CD and on the parents CD in order for him to hear it better. This from a man who is uber-sensitive to sound. He has been calmer and has been enjoying his son more and more as Dante is more connected. That is the relationship in most need at our home at this point so I am obviously and silently delighted.
· Dante is crisp and joyful if he hears the night's CD once. More than once I have noticed he gets somewhat hyper as if he's had 3 cups of coffee.
· I believe I get a slight headache if I listen to Dante's CDs while I'm awake. He doesn't seem to
· I have purchased another CD player to keep the environment CD on 24/7.
Our home was a very happy home this weekend. As I said at the beginning of my email, I can hardly believe it. I am on hyper-drive with excitement.
Thank you so much for this wonderful new start. I pray it is only the beginning,
Mari

Subject: Re: Genet Fwd: Hello from Dante's mom!I was thrilled to read Mari's report and I rejoice with her for the progress her son is experiencing and the joy that fills her heart.
We have been using the cd's for 5 days now I am still finding a balance for all three of us.Josiah and Jonah share a room with their beds about 5 feet apart and the cd player in between them. Jonah goes to bed first and gets them for about an hour before Josiah goes to bed. A few nights I noticed Jonah sleeping lighter and twice Josiah sleeping lighter. I do play them more than once each night but I am not playing them non-stop through the night anymore. I do keep the environmental cd on most of the time. I have to buy another player so I can have my own for the parent cd. I think finding the right balance for each boy will make a consistent and significant impact on each one.
Josiah has had a massive language explosion. Not just words of his own volition but constant chatter. Playing with tone and frequency and volume of what he is saying. He is requesting more functionally. And more descriptive. For example as we are doing vocabulary flashcards, Baby instead of saying "baby" he is now saying "a baby" What is on this card? A baby. He is classifying that it is one baby. His language is flowing easier. I have not noticed calmer and less head banging but I am hopeful for that. His eye contact is stronger for certain.
Jonah I think is having progress but his is more like hi and low, he's either really great or extremely off. He is able to put his thoughts to words better. He asked his therapist in the middle of therapy today in our home, why some days are good for him and others days are not. He has never made the connection before or even expressed any sense of caring either way. I believe Jonah is working through some serious emotional stuff right now and I believe it will all work together for good.
I am thrilled to be privileged to share Josiah and Jonah's daily Miracles in Progress.Thank you.

Subject: Great day today!!!!!!Hi Everyone:
Just wanted to share what a great day Arrius had today. We took him for another difficult haircut appointment and was not looking forward to seeing him cry through the whole thing due to his sensory issues. But today, things have definitely changed!! He sat at my lap and was starting to get a little upset. The stylist put on his favorite video to try to distract him a bit. She began to trim the back of his head with scissors and before we knew it, she was done!! For the first time ever, he sat through his haircut without crying. I was stunned and amazed at this progress. I thanked God and the hairstylist for being so wonderful and patient with him. We were so excited that we even had a "Haircut Party" when we got home. Arrius really enjoyed it!!
I started thinking what did I do different that may have made a difference. Well, Arrius has been on Byonetics for 2 years now and has made tremendous progress with it and other multiple interventions. But lately I wasn't putting the Byonetics CDs on as consistently as I should have. But I started playing it again every night for the past 2 weeks. I also started giving him GABA in the mornings. Another thing I decided to do was to try to desensitize him with his hair/scalp hypersensitivities. I started to massage his head every night for about 2 minutes. Every time I brush his hair, I wet it first. We would also play the pretend haircut game. As he is watching TV or on the computer, I would tell him, "OK, its time for your haircut " I would grab his hair in sections and pretend to cut it using my fingers as the pretend scissors. At first, all this was difficult for him but it started getting easier and it got to a point where he wouldn't even protest anymore. Well, I guess a combination of all this, plus God's miracle hand, made the difference and now we are looking forward to more good haircut appointments and haircut parties.!!!!

Subject: 5 week report on DanteDear Jean,
At last my son has a positive school review by his teacher!
Ok, so we are basically 5 weeks into using the Byonetics CD's. We began using the CD's on Oct. 7-2008, when Dante turned 5. He is non-verbal and uses PECS to communicate basic needs, nothing too complicated. He has been on the GFCF diet for over a year. I have also just started the clay baths other parents have recommended, since chelation was too strong on Dante. The clay baths along with the CD's are phenomenal.
In the past, teacher reviews were mainly focused on some skills they had seen, but nothing that was consistently exhibited by Dante. I am happy to report the following changes in him:
· He is much more loving. For example, when you feed him he pulls you by the sleeve and when you are at his level he gives you a hug. He is always very thankful when you help him with something.
· He is much more aware of his environment and surroundings, for example:
. Once his PT session was over, as Dante is walking away, his therapist says, "Good Job, Dante, give me five!" He turned around, walked up to her, and slapped her hand. You know how huge this is for a child who is disconnected by autism!
. Now if he feels his nose is runny or his mouth is dirty, he will wipe his nose/mouth/chin with his arm. The teacher described this as problem solving, something I have never seen him do. Another example of problem solving I have seen at home is that he is finally aware of the light switch when in a room. If he wants to play when his room is dark, he will turn on the light and be happy. Before he would just remain in the dark.
. He is running down the hall at school and, when he reaches the top of the stairs, he stops, grabs the handrail, and goes down the stairs on his own! Before he would just dive into the abyss, never aware of the drop in front of him.
· He has never really gone "under" an object. Now he is crawling through a tunnel following the PT's prompts.
· He is very receptive to have someone join in with him in an activity; he welcomes it. Following the Son-Rise principles, I decided to join him in his bouncing on the bed last night. He will bounce himself to sleep once in a while. So I bounced next to him and made the same sounds he did. He stopped, looked at me, and gave me a kiss on the mouth. I have done this on other occasions and he becomes super happy and giggly. Joining them in "their" world is an awesome way to help them want to join ours, and I believe Byonetics helps that process occur faster!
· He is participating better in social games. The teacher will say, "I'm going to get you, Dante!" and he sort of curls down in expectation, laughing with the excitement of what is to come.
· He is happier for longer periods of time.
I had met with the teachers 2 days into Byonetics, and they had already noticed some changes. I did not tell them what it was then. I told them this Wednesday, and on Thursday I sent in the environmental CD for the classroom and the day CD for nap time. I think sharing our experiences in detail, with examples, is the best way to have other parents understand how it can help their children.
Thank you, Jean, for sharing this wonderful gift with us,
Mari

Subject: Zinc for Drooling & COLDS!Dear Byonetics Parents (Faith!):
Thank you so much for taking the time to answer others parents' concerns! I am very delighted to write about two very frustrating problems I have successfully addressed through the help of this forum.
First, I received a variety of answers to address Dante's excessive drooling (he is 5 years old). The drooling had decreased last year, but it got worse after chelation* treatment last Fall and had not gotten better since. Faith recommended the GFCF diet, which we already do, and Zinc supplements. The Zinc made sense to me, since it's something he may have lost due to the chelation treatment.
Well, Faith, you'll be happy to know (but not happier than me, believe me!) that the Zinc worked pretty much immediately!!!! I really can't believe how effective it was. This child was going through practically 10 bibs/day at school alone!!! Now he hardly drools, although it does increase at the sign of an impending cold.
Second, an added bonus from the Zinc was for our number ONE concern since chelation: Dante has been getting a cold approximately every 3 weeks since January. The week prior to the cold was horrible, with little appetite and LOTS of head banging (very volatile). All focus was lost and very little progress was made before and during a cold. The time was pretty much spent making him comfortable and protecting his head. Well, I think the Zinc has helped with the colds too! Dante has not had a cold for 6 weeks now, and that is HUGE. The whole household is deeply impacted by a healthier & happier child, it's amazing.
Note that the homeopathic cold remedy, Cold-eeze, is mainly Zinc Gluconate. That is the main ingredient in the "Chelated Zinc" caplets you can easily purchase by Nature's Bounty. I'm grinding the tablets and giving about 1/4 of a 50mg pill in his morning orange juice.
So thank you from the bottom of my heart for your Parent Team-Work. It is very helpful!

Hi Jean,
I do believe that there is an increase in his energy, Now we are in his second week....He still gets up in the middle of the night, however prior to starting the CD's he would wake up and get into all kinds of things and make a huge mess to clean in the morning. He is no longer doing that. He is waking and playing with his toys or the dog. Believe me this is a good thing. He is also starting to participate in more activities. I sincerely appreciate all your recommendations.

Subject: Update on Nathan (just turned 6)
Jean,
I wanted to give you an update on Nathan's progress. He has been on the CDs (in addition to speech, occupational, group/social therapies) for about 7 1/2 months now. He is talking a lot more, still using a lot of memorized phrases, but he is using some spontaneous language, as well. We just completed his 6 year old eligibility (for special ed services) meeting with the school, and while everyone recognizes that he has some sensory issues and obvious communication problems, he is making significant improvements. In fact, in an overall adaptability assessment, he scored extactly at his age (6 years, 0 months), although his specific score in the communications area was still below par. He did something else interesting the other day - his older cousin walked into our house and Nathan ran up to him, hugged him, and said, "Hi, Ethan!" This is a major milestone, as he's always been shy and oblivious to anyone else being in the house. He continues to amaze us all the time - the combination of CDs, therapies, and increased play and interaction with his siblings all seem to be working to his advantage. It has helped tremendously that his younger brothers (ages 4 and 2.5) have become more verbal - it's like they're pushing him to talk. Let's hope the positive trend continues!
Thanks for all you do!

I wish you all a wonderful holiday and joyous New Year full of lots of love, hapiness and progress. Now is the time to reflect and see how much our children have grown and achieved in this past year. We as parents must feel proud of ourselves and give ourselves a hug that what we do everyday for our children is out of love, faith and determination. We are mother warriors (and father warriors!!) who will do anything to help our children succeed. We may not get that so needed "Your doing a wonderful job" from those we expect but our children do appreciate us and love us for what we have done!! So never give up hope and one day we will achiever our dream!!! Jean, thank you for having this great program to guide us to recovery and always allowing us to have a voice in our time of need.

Also, he can watch and interact with the computer and be scripting and interacting with a dvd in the player across the room at the same time. Also, he watches the NASA channel and then lines up articles and pictures in books and on dvd that match the subject on the NASA channel (literally match) and runs them at the same time.

Subject: Progress on Josh JonahDear Jean,
Today is our two week anniversary on Byonetics and my husband and I are already seeing changes. We started using the CD's on January 22nd and on January 30th I also changed their diets to GF/CF/Soy Free/Sugar Free (you name it and I took it out of their diet). Two weeks ago we were looking for a hospital to admit Jonah to because of his self injurious behavior. This past Monday we had a follow up with one of our doctors (a psychiatrist) who thinks that the answer to Autism is managing the symptoms with medication. Put a band aid on it and hope for the best. He was surprise to see Jonah calmer (he is still hyper but it is tolerable) and engaging. Jonah has better eye contact and seems to be happier. The self injurious behavior has been reduced by 75-85 percent. Does he still get frustrated yes but he handles it better and his tantrums are not near as long. He is following verbal instructions, he is laughing and he is asking for help appropriately, he is actually doing school work again without me fighting him. He also started listening to favorite CD's. This is new to him as he has until now not wanted to wear ear phones. It is nothing short a miracle that Jonah is doing so well. I can't wait to see what the coming months will bring!
Josh, as well, seems to be doing better, he is still ten and going through the things that adolescences go through. I have seen fewer tics in him over the last week. I do think his ADHD is better controlled but we still have a ways to go. I hold out hope that in the near future Josh will begin to turn the corner.
I am so thankful that God led me to you and Byonetics and I pray that He continues to heal our children. Thank you for all that you do to help families fighting to save their children from being swallowed by Autism.
Looking forward to blessings ahead,
Cyndie and Rick Hale

This is Pam Belen, Ijust want to update you on my son Jed. He started with the light and the first cd on Feb. 17, 2009. Together with a nightly massage to my son, we noticed that he's been sleeping deeply now. Thanks to everyone for all the informative emails that I received daily. But for my son to sleep good at night is such a blessing.

Subject: Kaan's progressHi Jean,
We are using CD's nearly 4 month time. Kaan is 34 month old now. As you know diagnosed as PDD-NOS. Psychiatrist is certain that he is not an autistic boy. This 4 month time he has improved a lot. He is very happy boy, sleep well. Has no eye contact problem. He expresses his needs (still not with words) by showing, pointing etc. He has a great sense of humour. He is joking, laughing very much. Very much curious about new things. Has no problem with other people, for example he can kiss them, hug them. Repetitive movements has gone. Increased relation with his father. (Previously less than today).We are only waiting his words. He has many like sounds but not clear words. Hope will come soon.
I am sure after having progress on speaking we will be out of spectrum in near future.
Best Regards,Kaan

Subject: Ivan's doing great!
Hi. We have been using the Byonetics program since the end of January for our son with autism. We experimented with it for a couple weeks until we got it just right. For our son, all through the night was too much because he does sleep lightly in the morning, and he was getting up way too early, around 4 a.m. We then tried playing it only once, right after he fell asleep, but we felt this just wasn't enough play. What we did was experimented with a timer. Ivan now falls asleep between 7 and 8 p.m. We put on Byonetics as soon as he falls asleep and the timer shuts off at about 2:30 a.m. Ivan sleeps much more soundly now since we started the Byonetics program. Especially after receiving the 2nd disc. We are so excited to receive the 3rd disc. I want all them switches to get a work out!! Lots of luck!!

Here is an update on Dallen Boudrero. He has now been using the Byonetics program for 6 1/2 months. Dallen is now 9 years old. Some things we have noticed are: He was struggling a lot with math (simple addition and subtraction) but in the last little while multiplication has just clicked and he loves it, and knows the basics well! He has also been coloring using more detail, with multiple colors and not just scribbling. Although we still struggle a lot with stuttering he is usually pretty even tempered and is behaving well at school. He is also reading at his own grade level! What a sweet kid and what a blessing to have Byonetics!
Thanks,
Haylie

I just want to update with you on Kyle. It has been about 8 weeks now
and there are a lot of improvements I see from him. e.i. He can ask
for food like "I would like to eat, greets guests, plays with other
kids and actively plays with my 3 year old daughter...it's so amazing
when I observed the two, he is always protected of her. For example,
when I faked to be mean to my 3 year old daughter, Kyle would come and
nagged at me or pulled me away! There's more but this so far has made
me very happy. Just a word for parents out there who are in this
program...have patience, healing will come. Our children have been
exposed to alot of toxins.Thanks so much.

So far, we've only been using the sleep disk. If this is just one sample of what Byonetics does, I am ready. Ryan has gone from almost zero attention in two weeks to a different person. It's like I have a person in my house that left years ago and came back. His eyes even look different. They used to look glazed and frankly crazy. He would have to have nagging to get him to pay close enough attention to do the simplest things. He was getting progressively worse with his "monkey" grunts and pacing. This morning, I didn't have to nag him to get dressed, he did that all on his own. He sat down and ate without pacing around the table every bite. His eyes look clear and here in this world. What an unbelievable difference.Thank you.

Subject: Ashley started 2 weeks agoHi,
This is Carolyn McKinney. my daughter is Ashley White, and she just started your CD's two weeks ago. at first, when i told her about them (before we got them in the mail), she wasn't very happy. (she's 17 tomorrow). however, from the second i turned it on, she loves it. she even told me after the first night it made her feel safe. and i never mentioned to her that concept!
i'm not sure if this has anything to do with your program, but since she has started, she has been talking to me about how she is feeling "all these emotions" and how scarey they are. and her response to these emotions is not aggression, but crying! which for her usually comes after aggression. she says she is having problems figuring out how to deal with all these feelings at once. i've never heard her even talk about feelings, things have always been one of two way, right or wrong, or black and white, etc could this be a response to the cd's and so quickly? she puts the cd's on at night herself! what a blessing, and it is absolutely helping her sleep (which has been a problem).
your thoughts?
thanks!

Subject: Aaron Progress in just two weeksJean,
It has been two weeks since Aaron has started listening to the CD's. His progress has been wonderful... The first evening after listening to the CD he came up and asked for what he wanted (using his known phrase "I want sandwich please") instead of just hovering over me and waiting for me to ask him "what do you want?" before answering with "I want..." Also after giving him his sandwich he said an un-prompted "Thank You", My husband and I looked at each other in shock for a second before remembering to reply with a "your welcome" it was such an amazing thing. I could tell he really meant it (actually understanding its meaning) instead of just repeating like always before.
He also interacts better with his little sister, they sometimes carry out extremely simple one-to-two word conversations togeather (she is two years old) whereas before he would just push her away when she tried interacting with him.
I am glad that I have taken a chance on this program, the progress that has happened over just a few short weeks is enough to justify getting it.
Very sincerely,

Joey is doing well; he has been so v. happy and still not taking any melatonin. He has become much more sociable lately, before he would just observe but now he beelines to where there are kids and joins in with them, which is amazing. The other day, there was a group of kids playing soccer on a field and he went right into the middle of the game and his therapist took him to the playground where there was a 4 way see saw and one slot open and he took it. So that's really really amazing. Aggression is still there but much lower and this whole week at school he hasn't had any (I don't remember the last time that happened at school). I don't know if it's wishful thinking on my part, but I really do think the CDs are making a difference, thank you so very much.

I just wanted to give you an update on Gabriel's progress. He started the Byonectics CD program 5/21/08 and has been on the CD's everynight eversince. We see changes in him everyday. Gabriel has food sensitivities to wheat, barley,corn,egg, soy,peanuts and the list goes on. When we shop for food he occasionally brings an item of interest to him to me and ask me if he can have it. I show him the ingredients and explain to him that it contains wheat or corn or whatever that he can not have it and we put the item back with no tantrums. Well on Sunday he was trying to get his Dad to look at some frozen french toast sticks but Dad was busy so he picked up the items, read the ingredients and said "I can have these" I checked the ingredients and indeed the it was safe for him to eat. This is the first time we have seen him make an independent decision like that. He was very proud of himself and so were we. He is really more grounded now and spends more time in
our world instead of his own.Thank you for developing this program.
I don't know where he would be right now without it !

Subject: Sean's significant improvementsHi Jean,
We are so glad and happy to inform you of Sean's significant improvements with just more than a week of listening to CD-1 every night. Before using the 1st Byonetics CD, Sean could not stay put for even just 5 minutes in one place particularly in the living room and the kitchen area. When he wakes up and comes downstairs, he goes straight to the master bedroom where he unceasingly taps anything to the wall. He even stopped watching his favorite children DVD's. But now, he stays at the living room watching attentively to his favorite DVDs more frequently and longer than ever before. In fact, there was even one time last week that he was able to finish the whole Barney and friends DVD without moving from where he was. We were so elated to see him did that. We are grateful for your Byonetics program. We attribute Sean's improvements to the Byonetics CD's and our strong and firm faith that he will finally be free from autism in the near future.

I have seen some changes in Mason. He is calmer, happier, and regulates easier. The biggest thing is that he is protesting more, which is great! He is 2, that is what 2 year olds do. Protests are just as important as smiles. It definitely goes against the grain to say that, but that is what his developmental therapist says. He also started cuddling his "glo-worm", which he hasn't done since before the regression. Cool things.

Sabrina has cut down on her supplements from 20 to 5 for about 1 month now, stopped the DMSA, have been doing the magnetic clay baths, and of course byonetics, and a "biggie", cut down on other food allergens. I guess sensitivity to food dyes cannot be tested? We eliminated food dyes. She has stopped perseverative behaviors such as picking at her feet and hands, and rubbing her fingers on all crevices and corners of objects. She is happy, alert, and started picking up toys and actually playing with them on her own the past few days! Lots of progress! The clay baths are a natural chelator that we are sticking with! Thanks for everyone's advice and input!

We too would like to add our sincere thanks !
The autism battle impacts on every aspect of all of our lives. It is good to share and to gain knowledge from all those out there on the front lines...doing the leg work. A lot of parents on your forum are far more knowledgable then some of the "professionals" from whom we seek help.
It gives us courage, hope and inspiration when we are a part of this network that you have created Jean !
As you say regularly Jean, "Take care to share".
We may never really realise the impact of what we all pass on through our own experiences, Collectively, it helps us and other families progress positively along on the journey to gaining back our sons and daughters. It is heartening and reassuring to be a part of this positive force, when the day by days sometimes seem without light.

Subject: First update on Aaron, almost 7 yrs oldHi Jean,
I just wanted to give you an update.
My son, Aaron, is in 1st grade Spec. Ed. class. He was diagnosed with moderate to severe Autism. I have a log from teacher of his daily performance in the class and almost everyday there were either tantrums, refusal to do activities, refusal to eat his food or not participating.
We started Byonetics on Friday, Sept 18. By Thursday, Sept 24, the teacher's note was all praised like behaved well, followed directions, big helper and used his words when he wanted something with a little bit of prompting. No notes from teacher on Friday. On Monday, Sept 28, Aaron learned the + airplane + girl for site words, and he had a good day. Yesterday's notes said, "Aaron is really responding well when prompted to use his words instead of throwing a tantrum. When he got upset he was reminded to use his words to express himself appropriately." But the amazing thing happened at home last night. He was able to finished going through two small books of shapes and first words with me. With the shape book, he even recited the letters of each shape. He used to have very short attention span and coudn't even finish one small book. We were building a toy tent and I started singing 'Bob the Builder' song. After I finished singing, he sang the song and only missed a couple of words. Both my older son and I were looking at each other in disbelief. Oh and in the afternoon when he was taking photos of us (he enjoys taking photos of everything specially purple things), he said "make happy face!" He started to be more interactive with us, more focus, longer attention, less tantrum, and better eye contact. Oh and Aaron's day was usually spent watching movie on his dvd player and played parts of the movie over and over. When we used to hide the dvd, he used to have major tantrum until we give up and gave it back to him. We took the dvd and put it away for good on Monday, but guess what, he only asked for it yesterday and today and at both times i told him it's broken, but he never complained and no tantrum. I think he is enjoying this change too since he is more connected with us.
I can't wait to see what other improvements we are going to see as we continue on our journey with Byonetics.
Thanks

Andrew started listening to his CD on Sept 16th and I have already noticed some changes in his overall behavior. He is much calmer, just a few less intense and very short tantrums. There has been no agression in these past 14 days, he used to get one every 2 days on an average. Anyone having a phone conversation used to set him off but that also has not happen since the 16th. This is a big deal!!. Andrew had a banana for the first time in over 5 years. He would always refuse whenever he was offered one.

I believe that the Byonetics has really changed things for us.
After 2 weeks, my family and I we were driving in the car. My daughter
was playing her DS. We were having a conversation. My 17yr old
realize that my daughter was talking to all of us while she was playing
her game. She has continued to be more engaged, adding to conversation.
The other day she actually pretended with someone, that she didn't know
something, to see what their reaction was to the question, she was asking.
Her anxiety is 80% better now. She is putting things away in her room
without be asked. Her tics are almost gone, 90% better. All day Halloween
she was independently preparing...she cleaned out 3 pumpkins and did the
design on all three, with the little pokey thing, hard work. Never stopped or
lost interest, she was loving it. She is so happy. The other night she did work
for school as usual. When I asked if she wanted me to take a look, she said
"you know what Mom, I learn more when you don't help." She then made it
clear that she didn't want to hurt my feelings, but that's how it was. WOW!!! I
almost cried. Handwriting is better. She missed her brother while he went
away for 2 days, gave him a gigantic hug when he walked through the door...
crazy!Good luck-

Kripa,
I want to share with you my experience with Byonetic with my son,
(who at that time was 5 and 1/2 year old) and this is the honest truth
I saw and remember too well. This is my experience with my son only,
others may experience differently. But I know that its always positive
outcome. Prior to Byonetic, my son was very agitated, stimmed, up
almost all night, no eye contact, lots of tantrums, cry almost all the time,
doesn't recognize name, no speech, not even one or two words, having
very hard time at school, unstable-don't like to change from one
environment to another. After I put him on Byonetic, the first few nights,
I have the CD run all night, he was very hyper, up all night, restless, etc.
So I email Jean, and he advised me to run for the end of the CD only
and see if anything change...I did as that and for 1 week later, I could
not believe how calm, sleep through out the night not even up once,
I mean all night through, no jumping up or down the bed anymore!
And many more positive changes.
I really appreciate Jean and Byonetic. From the bottom of my heart,
I know that he saves my son to be connected. You got nothing to lose.
I was skeptic but I am glad I give it a try. I NEVER REGRETED IT!Bauje Lee

Hi Jean
You have not heard much from me since I started buying your software
for Shayna several month back. We have been using it for over 3 months
now and we are seeing some amazing changes.Her teachers are commenting and many of the promblems we were
experiencing are now going away. She is almost 4 and had trouble
socializing with other 3/4 year old kids. all the other issues we had with
her autism we reversed. Eye contact with us came, hugging and kissing
came, no more head banging and angry tantrums. She is fully talking
now and is almost the same as her twin sister without Autism. Eating is
still kinda weird. We have not been able to fix the Social part. She will
not play with kids, is afraid of strangers and does not make any friends.We got your product and now this is finally changing. The teacher sent
us a report saying the past few months have been a major break thru in
her social behavior. she is playing with friends and told the teacher she
does not want to be shy anymore. At first we said maybe she just grew
out of it, but I believe it was the product and we will keep using it. I feel
the switches are repairing themselves just as you said. She now goes to
gymnastics and loves dance class. This was not possible before. I love
recoding her at dance playing with all the other kids.What breaks our heart is that two years ago in the same school, many of
the other kids are not changing at all.The parents keep asking why is
Shayna progressing so rapidly. We tell them all the things we have done
but none ever really ask for any information to try it as well.At any rate, we are amazed and so grateful.

something before he speaks. He now can actually identify coins and
can count up some coin change and tell you how much money you
have in front of him. This is amazing---he never has been able to grasp
the concept of counting money(coins) and identifying each coin and its
amount. Clayton automatically turns on his CD player with his CD before
jumping into bed for bedtime. We play the CD continously until he gets
up for school the next morning. It is part of his routine. I have let the

Just thought l'd let you know how Steven's going after 6 nights litening to the CDs. He is
no longer high in an other dimention, seemed that way from the outside, half here and
half there.l took him for a walk yesterday and he enjoyed it. Normally he walks along holding his ears, to help him block out the noise. Steven has typed in in his notebook that his tinnittis has gone and his ear pain, as l've said before he has only been able to type in his note book for 3 months, so l had no idea that he had tinittis as well as his ear pain.
He's been on Dr Natasha Campbell Mcbride for a few years, and supplements with the Dan Dr also, there isn't much that l didn't try, believe me. Well, what stands out since he's been doing the CDs is the quietness in the morning. He used to turn the tv up loud, his music player, everything had to be on to block out the noises, his ears were so painful. Steven can even sit with the t.v off now. Wow. He typed yesterday that he is hearing" everything so differently, that everything around him has changed, and that he has to get used to it all, "mum l,m so happy." Steven wants to talk so badly. Ddr has started him on alpha lipoic acid and dmsa. l believe this is going to be our year. l'm so excited. Every day brings new things.
Thank you so much Jean, you have given us the hope we were searching for, that's all Steve wanted for Christmas. "Mum l want my ears fixed." All the very best to you and thanks for everything. You are making it possible for all our beautiful children to have a good life, they so much deserve.

We have been using the cds since the summer / My son was eight last week. We have seen improvements in that he is more "with us," he is less sensitive to noise. He's acting out by being silly and cheeky. He has also become calmer. However although he is babbling more and there seems to be a bit more speech, Our doctor says that since his speech is coming there is no reason why it shouldn't continue.
Our son asks for food, says hello and goodbye. He asks to go to the toilet. Tells us to hurry up. He will tell us that something is sore. Asks us to cut his nails, by saying ...look nails. He can sing songs word perfectly and count. He tells us that he is tired aand says go to bed.He says tickle me and generally the language he uses is very much in context. He also pretends to cry. he jokingly says " I'm crying. He has also started to become afraid of the dark and says light on.

Before the CD's and the gf/cf diet and the supplements, he was VERY UNHAPPY! I can take the autism any day if my son is enjoying life, able to feed himself, is finally sleeping through the night and has the most infectious laugh ever! Live in the moment with him, embrace who he is now and don't jump to the future, keep doing everything that you can and then just accept him. You may not ever have a meaningful conversation with him, but you can have LOTS of really fun conversations with him. I have six kids and Chaz is by far the happiest and most joyful among them. He brings a lot of joy into our lives, and inspires us every day. If Chaz can have a great day in spite of blindness, cerebral palsy, a seizure disorder and autism, then nothing is going to stop us from a having a great day as well. My heart aches for you as hear the grieving over what was lost and what might have been, but you are going to miss what IS, and what is, is a special being that has been placed in your hearts. There can be joy in that.
Blessings to you,
Donna

Subject: Re: Genet Fwd: talking with other parentsDear Jean and Christi (email regarding talking with other parents),
Hi! It sounds like you are a little uneasy about purchasing the Bionetics cds. I also was very hesitant to purchase these cds and have my son start the program. I personally called and talked with Jean last April 2009 and he was very thorough, reassuring, and told me that his program would probably be beneficial for my son. My son was 13 when we started the cd therapy. Clay is now 14 and we have seen positive changes in his social behaviors with school peers, siblings, and adults. He was diagnosed with autism and developmental delay disorder at the age of 9 per an autism specialist. Clay was a normal, healthy child until we had his scheduled 18 month to 24 month old vaccines. After 4 vaccinations, he started to regress in his developmental stages. Clay did not say his normal 2-4 word phrases anymore, eye contact became very poor, and would not interact with family or peers. I started my soon to be 3 year old son in a college speech class which was run by college students and professors. My insurance would not cover any percentage of speech therapy because developmental delay disorders and autism is not a diagnosis that insurance covered regarding speech assistance( that was 11 years ago). Over the next several years, I had my son in speech therapy at the college(which was all I could afford being a single mom of two). With much advocating and persistant talks with the schools, he has been in mild special ed classes with some mainstreaming classes. He has been on 2 types of medications for better focus and aggressive behaviors/aggitation for the past 4 years. Since Clay has started the cd therapy(faithfully playing the cds as instructed), he is now talking more and socializing more with his peers at school for the first time in his schooling environment. He is now interacting with 11 yr. sister and 13 yr. old stepbrother which they are also estatic about this. Sensory issues are now gone. We no longer have to cut out his shirt tags and now for the first time(in 14yrs),he is wearing blue jeans every day like all the other 8th graders. The teacher and aide can not believe the progress he has made over the past 9 months. He now is able to wash himself, dry himself after his showers, and completely dress himself(with occasional supervision--hahaha). He does much better with change in schedule and answers questions quickly when he is asked a question. We are seeing positive changes and keep playing the cds faithfully and praying for complete healing of my son.
Thanks for reading our progress. I thought this might be a wonderful testimony in your decision regarding this cd therapy. Also, I have weaned my son down 1/2 his dosage on his two meds.(yeahhhhh!)
Best wishes, Angela

Subject: jude's updateDear Jean,
Jude will start the second Cd tonight. I was concerned at first with his more "stimy and hyperactive behaviors" while using the first cd, but those concerns went away when his speech therapist said that she was impressed by his obvious improvement the past two weeks. I had taught him some sign language since the age of two to help with his language frustrations. He is five now and he has pulled away from the signs as soon as he was capable of saying the words. He has not used a single one sign in the last month.
I am looking forward to the changes to come.

You won't believe this but before he use to play with Thomas the train,hot wheels,did not really play with other kids much, and hated music!!! But for about a week now he has been bugging use about cleaning out his toy box. [which we thought he would only give away about 4 toys away. But when i helped him clean out his toy box we cleaned out 2 Marsh's paper bags !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And you wont believe this, but i asked him why he wanted not play with these anymore and he said "I don't want to play with these anymore Chey, I am too old for them"!!!! Your cd's are helping soooooooooo much and hope they turn him normal,but so far is going good!! He is also doing things more independantly.Like......walking to lunch by himself,gets his food by himself,and walks to classes by himself now. And usually he would wear only running pants [NO JEANS] but now he wears jeans like all the other boys,and he says "I need to wear jeans,i'm a big 8th grader."Clay has been on the cd's for 9 months now and starting to see BIG changes in my brother.Thanks for helping my bub,god bless you.

Benjamin said "I want water music please"Hi Jean and Parents,
Hope things are going well for all of you.
We started playing Benjamin the CDs since we got them on Jan 22. It's been almost 2 weeks since we started the program. Yesterday, Benjamin said "I want water music please", which was a nice surprise to me! Usually, Benjamin is resistant for things, except his favorite food items or toys. He would get upset when we present him with things or activities that is not initiated by him. Tonight when he was about to go to bed, I asked him "Do you want water music?" He pleasantly replied "Yes, I do." Apparently, Benjamin, who is 4 yrs, likes the sounds of the water very much. I think this is a great start.
As the Chinese Lunar New Year is approaching (the first day is on Feb 14), I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a very healthy Year of the Tiger full of happy returns.

Subject:Byonetcs CDs have made the biggest difference to my 12 year old sonHi Jean,
Thank you for the email.
I must say the Byonetcs CDs have made the biggest difference to my 12 year old son Mohammed. A few days after we started, new language was noticed. His speech therapist was amazed at his progress and still is. A few months ago he began approaching people to inquire about their names and what they were doing. He won the gold medal in Florida Special Olympics soccer and basketball skillls team last year. He has now joined their youth soccer team. Today he scored a goal in the county games for soccer. His team cam first.
He still has a long way to go, but his progress curve has shot up since we began the CDs. No other treatment has made such a difference.
Thank you for all time and efforts!

It has been 1 month since Gabriel our son has been using the cd's. Let me just say the first thing we noticed was his hyperactivity has decreased big time. He dosn't run around back and forth the way he use to .He still does run around but not anything like before. He is more talkative, still mostly repeating things like tv shows or movies but he will also let us teach him to say things he wants and is much more willing to do so. He listens better when we call or correct him and like you said alot of eye contact.He even asks us questions now like" Whats that?" and "What are you doing?" He calls my mom grammy and gives her a big hug. There are many things, i will be glad to tell you every thing on the phone. It is very exciting to watch him grow.

Subject: Update on EthanHi Jean,
WE've been on the CDs for 2 weeks now.
1. Ethan was nominated for his school's gifted and talented program. (We knew this was coming, but it was still neat to see.)
2. Ethan's speech therapist is doing his annual testing and told me she did not think he was going to need to continue with extra therapy. We might look at group therapy (socialization), but his language is doing great.
3. Ethan has always had a tremendous fear of animals, especially cats. We have a stray cat that showed up over the weekend and has been hanging out at our back door. He did not pet her, but he named her Olivia and talked to her. He did not run away. Did not cry. Did not jump on me to carry her. He doesn't want her too close to him, but the panic has not been there.
4. I've noticed his language gaining some real clarity. He's explaining more. Using more complex sentences. Making more sense in his imaginative play.
5. Ethan is also voluntarily eating healthier. For instance, he just got in the fridge and pulled out a piece of cheese. He's been eating a lot more protein and yogurt as well. He tradtionally asks for chips and sweets, but his interest in these is weaning.
Thank you!

We started our 3-year old boy Siddarth on the Byonetics CDs from mid-January. Currently, we are playing one CD just once as he goes into deep sleep, one for each appropriate day. The changes seem to be subtle so far.
There does seem to have been improvement in the last few weeks, according to his OT (he has weekly sessions) but he seems to take more interest in his surroundings, people, going out, and eye contact 'circle' has widened from me, his mother and grandmother, to others in our daily cycle of life.

We started your CD's probably either Late Feb or first week of March. My husband and I were very skeptical but at the same time as many parents desperate and willing to do anything for their child. I am so happy we gave in to our desperation, as we have seen some progress already with Lucas. WE have noticed more vocabulary, and he has accomplished simple sentences. He is able to say I want drink please, or whatever
it may be that he wants. Another amazing thing is that my child just turned 3, and not only does he sing the alphabet song, but he can recognize, and say any letter of the alphabet when shown to himand now we are working on the sound of each letter, he has learned the sound of A,B,and C just this week alone. We work with our child daily, as well as his pre-school he attends to and speech and OT but I have to say I believe your

My 9 year old daughter now is demanding change! That's right -- no more of that "Don't move that or Kimmy will get upset". There is a lot of light in this tunnel to recovery. Kimmy was severely autistic--climbed on top of stacks of toys as high as she could go; you couldn't rearrange furniture or even your canned goods; always had to have everything in her chosen place at the right angle; didn't sleep well at night; had meltdowns and balled her eyes out frequently for no apparent reason. There are so many things that she has overcome during her recovery.
For stemming, there is a vest that velcros together that her OT brought to school for her. She does not stem while wearing it. Hugs are a great help, too. They seem to put the child in his/her right place emotionally, mentally, and physically.
This Easter surely did bring her a blessing! The funny part is watching the teachers try to scramble to keep up with her changes!
Love to All and God bless.

Subject: Our Son After Less Than 2 MonthsWe started your discs in February. There have not been any "WOW" moments per se. What we have seen from our ten year old son, who has high functioning autism and leaky gut, is an improvement in his temperament and his expressive speech sentence construction. Two months ago he would fuss about going to school, not wanting to, and being very combative verbally. Now, if he even protests, it is NOTHING. It is an "I don't want to go to school, I want to stay home with my kitties". When he is told he has to go to school since that is his job, he says ok, and transitions to something else without fussing, peseverating, pushing buttons, making me nuts. He is putting himself to bed...telling me when it is time to go up to his room and be tucked in....no coercion, bribing, fussing...nothing.
His expressive speech is about 2 years delayed, even more depending upon the task required. His sentence structure is improving. It is grammatically correct, he is using conjugations and pronouns and descriptions I wasn't hearing two months ago. He is more comfortable in his skin, and confident in what he says. What I am seeing can best be described as layers of restrictions are falling away.
My son still has his moments, but that seems to be more now when he is legitimately tired and overextended, but not at the end of the school day. His stamina is improving for getting through a school day and still being productive. He is more willing to comply when asked to turn the volume down on his DSi, without arguing. He is lying. He is LYING!
I highlighted that because one of the first founding DAN doctors we saw pointed several things out that we needed to be aware of and careful about. The major ones were to be careful and mindful of our marriage, and not letting anyone but Mom, Dad, Grandmother, or Aunt, watch over our son...children with autism are some of the most abused children, and most abuse (sorry Dads, please understand and don't be offended) is done by someone other than Mom, Dad, and direct female relatives. He told us not to let our child sleep over until he was at least 13, and could easily communicate if there were any problems, and then only with someone we completely trusted. He told us when our children started fighting, to be happy about it because that means our son was coming out of his self limited world and cared enough about something to engage someone else even though it might be physically uncomfortable, even painful, for him to do so. And, when he started lying, well, that would be an incredible milestone. He has lied in the past, little lies to get what he wants, but now, he gets a specific look on his face, he is almost the Cheshire cat with his smile, and he is creating whoppers that he knows are lies, and wants to see if we catch him lying. Unfortunately he is developing quite the talent and I am starting to have a hard time figuring out the lie now!
He asked for his first book...Diary of a Wimpy Kid. This after having to be bribed to read any book...even books about cats and Transformers which he loves. When he asked for a book I was floored.
Are the discs the reasons? Would we have noticed these things in a short time period if not for the discs? I know this much - these discs are having an impact, my hearing sensitivity is up (almost painfully so but the painful part is dissipating), and with everything else we are doing, they are a complement to this process that is moving my son away from a limited world. For that, thank you.

Subject: Re: Genet Fwd: Agression w/15 Yr old sonTo the parents requesting info and advice from another parent,
I am a mother of a 15 year old boy who was finally diagnosed with Autism(mild on the spectrum now)when he was 8 years old. For years(until he was 8), doctors and specialists kept telling us that he was developmentally delayed and just keep an eye on progress. At the age of 8, a specialist who works with Autistic kids, teens, adults, and Aspergers children, put my son on an array of antipsychotic meds and antidepressents; zoloft, abilify, seroquel, and much more. As we kept trying new meds, my son seemed more aggressive and aggitated at times. The medicine, seroquel, was the worst drug they gave my son(which was part of the guinea pig program). My son would kick at the windows and kick me as well. These were behaviors that my son did not do without the meds. Over the past 6-7 years, we (ourselves) have determined which meds have helped him focus better, more social with others, and prevent abnormal impulses. My son has been on risperdol (low dose) 2x day and tenex(low dose) 2x day for nearly 5 years. While browsing on the internet last spring, I saw a pop up window about Byonetics Therapy. After looking at the several testimonies of other parents and reviewing the CD program, I talked with Jean Genet per phone. He told me that my son would probably be a good candidate for the program. We started my son on the strict CD program last April(2009) and finally seen big changes after about 6 months of being on the CDs. I have gradually decreased Clay's medications but seems better with a very low dose of both meds(especially with attention span). With wonderful news, my son has made great improvement with socialization at school with teachers and peers, and at home with his other siblings. We had his spring school conference yesterday(which gets him ready for high school in August) and the speech therapist and his mainstreamed teachers could not believe the improvement with volunteering his input and reading to the younger kids, this is amazing for him. Also, the speech therapist told me, special ed directors, and new high school principal and team, that he is a new kid. This was a quiet kid who never focused in class or speech and now is excited about socializing. Our special ed teacher (who has worked with Clay for 3 years) told me to discuss the Byonetics CD program to the conference team. Everyone just listened to me and how I felt that this has really improved my son. No comments though from the new staff. But as the previous teachers, my son, my family, and I know is that this program has helped my son. My advice to you is to not give up on the Byonetics and play the CDs faithfully. Also, do not get discouraged when you think they are not helping your child. It took about 4-6 months to notice little improvements with my son. A soon to be year later, the school and my family are finally(hahaha)believing that my son is a different child. Also, watch all those antipsychotic drugs that the doctors will give your child. Sometimes, those meds, given with to many other meds or given in toxic doses, can make our children worse. I read your email and felt like you(as a parent) one year ago. I thought this email would be inspiring to you and your family.Best wishes,

Subject: Mariel on the CDsHi Jean,
Though baby steps, I see improvements in Mariel. She got calmer and have been staring at me more intently. The aggression has started to lessen though they can still come but the episodes are very brief. It could also be because I have started to taper her Risperdal intake gradually. It will be heavenly if I finally pull this drug out which she's been taking since 9 yrs old (she's now 16yrs old).
I look forward to see more improvements in the future. I hope to be able to introduce the GFCF diet also but my problem is that she has limited choices of food to eat so shifting her to food entirely new to her may be a challenge.
Thanks... Monique

Subject: Daughter's resp to ByoneticsHello All! I have been using Byonetics with my daughter for the past few months and am very happy with it! She, as with most of you with your children I'm sure, has had several challenges. It is challenging for her, her siblings, and me and her father. She is a beautiful person! When having a child with special needs, our whole world changes. It is a whole grievance process. Family dynamics, way of life, ways of eating, etc. change.

Subject: Mariel on the CDsThank you Julie and everybody for the kind suggestions to help me with my daughter's diet. I am highly encouraged specially when I see how slowly Mariel is starting to be engaged with me and with all of us in the family ever since we started with the CDs. I want to cry in happiness! I have to admit that my husband was skeptical at first thinking how sounds from CDs can turn around our child's problem but he also started to be amazed with the changes we've been seeing for the past few weeks.
Jean, more power and God bless you

Subject: Sean's gotten better with the CDsHi Jean,
Sean's gotten better with the CDs and still is when it comes to tolerating sounds. He can now tolerate the sounds of vacuum and any other sounds. As a result, he stays more often in the living room as compared before. He even started to mingle with other kids, but still does not play any toy with them. That is truly amazing! We hope that he will continue to progress everyday. We are still playing the CDs every time he sleeps. By the way, he has a longer and more sound sleep now as compared before we started using the CDs.
Thanks so much and have a great day!

asking for things.
Yesterday he played with a group of neighborhood children and he looked
absolutely "normal".He still has some things to work out and he still stims alot more than before
but even his school teacher has seen a change in him.Next week we are trying the cf/gf diet again.Hopefully this time it will work

I am Johan's mother and I know my husband has already shared this with you, but I just had to say "Praise God" and "THANK YOU". For the first time, Johan initiated a conversation. Last night, he was in another room and he came out of the room and called out "Mommy". I didn't say anything the first time because I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Then he called out again "Mommy". I literally ran to him and there he was with the biggest smile on his face looking for me. Did I add he has the cuttest dimples? I picked him up and hugged him so tight with tears rolling down my face.
Jean, I am so thankful that you have allowed God to use you as a vessel in order to help kids with autism. With all that you have gone through, please know that it was not in vain...kids are getting better and on behalf of all the parents who at one point in time had no hope...THANK YOU - THANK YOU - THANK YOU !!!!!

Subject: Gavin's progress on CD'sHello everyone,
I know it's been awhile, but you all know how busy we can get! Gavin (grandson - 2 1/2 yrs) has been listening to CD's for only 2 months & we have seen GREAT improvements! So GREAT, I had to share...
so for all you skeptic parents out there, here you go:
Gavin used to only have eye contact with Mommy. Now, Gavin not only looks me in the eye, he HOLDS eye contact with me! Being his Nana, I almost cry with joy when he does it! Even more incredibly, he INITIATES physical contact with me. He touches my face when he wants me to "watch" him; basically this gesture means "pay attention to me"! Gavin now PULLS (my hand or leg) - depending on if he wants me to "go" somwhere with him, or "do" something with him; YEAH, HE INITIATES the physical part. It's GREAT! Gavin now inter-plays with toys & looks at people for their reaction; he EXPECTS our participation... stuff that all the other kids already do. He not only does this for me, but he has expanded his circle to include most of our extended family members now. He includes more and more people all the time. He now looks at strangers in the eye, but doesn't hold the contact for long. (baby steps). THIS parent network far SURPASSES the internet Research for autism. I THANK each of YOU for EVERY LINK & Sharing of what works for you, what didn't & what to avoid; it REALLY HELPS.
Gavin has always made noise - sounds; just not spoken but maybe five words & he would not repeat them again. He does use (rather good for 2 yrs old) sign language. I have noticed that his "sounds" are different; 1 -there are more sounds to choose from; and 2 -he repeats them IF you mimick his sound. He used to make a lot of dolphin sounds; very high pitched squeals. Now, he makes sounds closer to a speaking tone; ohhhh & gaw gaw gaw. Also new to us, is that he does the raspberries with his mouth. Although spitting normally is not a wanted activity, we are THRILLED that he does any movements with his mouth & tounge; so we actually PRAISE him for this! go figure. Gavin also plays games with us now, like peek a boo, ring around the rosies & others we have made up (ok, we let HIM make them up). But HE initiates the games; ALL ON HIS OWN. It's a true blessing that he WANTS to be in our world, because we soooo want to enjoy playing & interacting with him to.
I simply MUST THANK EVERYONE who shares on here, because I have used techniques suggested by parents here - THAT REALLY WORK - THANK YOU ALL!
I wish everyone here good ventures & down pours of blessings. THANK YOU Jean for offering all that you know to help others. I suggest to others to praise each and every baby step achieved; as it is truely GREAT to see any little improvement.We had Gavin on vitamins A, B6, DMG & Folic Acid. Recently we switched to a multi vit specifically for autistic children (Kirkman); as they provide the higher doses of these particular vitamins, where a regular child multivit doesn't. Gavin goes to speech therapy once a week & is starting occupational therapy next month. We recently got Gavin tested for food allergies also. To other parents; perservere; keep trying; DO WHAT YOU CAN; take BREAKS when you need them & DON'T GIVE UP.

Subject: You are so appreciatedHi Jean,
I find time has a way of getting away from me and since Devon has been at Children's Hospital and School some four days into this 120 day program I seem to have lost my way from the usual rigid daily protocol. For nine and a half years it has been Devon and I 24/7 with very few breaks away from one another and I am wondering if he is co-dependant on me as I seem to be on him.
I miss my little guy so much but your informative emails and wonderful connections help me keep the study going for his return home so I can get on with ending autism instead of being a puppet that attempts to manage it.
Thank you for being such a wonderfully supporting advocate for all the parents and family members of autistic children and young adults. I appreciate your willingness to pass on all the useful information rather than hoard it to keep your product spotlighted as this builds trust and loyalty. You are so appreciated by me and I wager that you are appreciated by everyone to whom you come in contact with.
Have a Great weekend.

We began the CD's around a month ago. I was shocked that even the day or two after playing the CD's I saw tremendous change and in many ways felt like I was meeting him for the first time. He woke up every day asking what day it was, and he stayed with us most of the day. On Mother's Day he sat at the table and held conversation extremely well. He even got frustrated with his sister when she helped remind him of things like she always needs to, and he was very interactive with and protective of his four younger siblings.

Subject: Amazing tripDear Parents,
I just wanted to encourage all of you who are wondering if all you are doing and sacrificing for your children is really going to make a difference.
Our daughter, Grace, was diagnosed at four years old with PDD/Autism. She has done tons of supplements, years of chelation (even 1 year of IV chelation), multiple therapies (not ABA) and listened to the CD's since October of 2009. (My Husband is a resident doctor now because of all his research and studying!!-Ha! )
Well, I am on a high today and just need to share this with you.
We flew from Phx to San Diego yesterday morning to enjoy a full day (10-6pm) at Seaworld with Grace and two of her older brothers. WE did not arrive home until about 11 PM.(We had an 18 hour day) Grace was totally amazing!! Not one single melt down and never even a complaint about anything! She was mesmerized by the animals and all the visual stimulation. We watched 3 shows (Dolphin, Shamu and the PetsRule Shows) and even waited over a half hour seated before each show. Occasionally, she would cover her ears because the music was so loud, but other than that, she loved it all! Though her speech is still her hang up (she understands everything, and speaks a ton, just not all is appropriate) she labeled everything and even said "look momma, Flamingos!" about 10 times just to make sure she had the word appropriate! We could tell she was having a ball because she would giggle on and off and just hugged us and said, "Are you having fun?" several times throughout our day! Praise God!
It was a terrific day for us all!! Just to watch as she continues to move forward. No, she is not where we want her ultimately, but YES she is improving daily!
Hope this encourages you all as there were many days for us that we just wondered. Faith will guide you. Never give up. Your Seaworld day is coming too! I can't express our excitement for our precious daughter. I know you can relate.
All our best,
Darl and Gina Hanna (Proud parents of a child struggling with autism)

Subject: Seeing the changes with our daughterDear Parents,
Our 6 year old daughter was diagnosed at 22 months with autism. We have done the speech and OT therapy (and continue to do so) we did ABA and she has recently graduated the ABA home program. We started the CD's about a month ago, and even though we were seeing progress with her prior to the CD we are already seeing even more progression. Recently we took her to the fair and accidently forgot her blanket.....normally when she doesnt have it she twists her hair in knots, but this time no melt down and no hair twisting. There was also a alrge crowd behind us when we were in line for the merry go round, and they all began to cheer for the princess of the carnival. Normally she would have freaked out plugged her ears and grabbed her blanket and either ran away or have a melt down. This time, she turned around and looked at them all and clapped and cheered with them, then got on the merry go round.
I can honestly say to all the parents that regardless of the methods you choose to utilize for your child, keep up the hard work and dedication as progress comes fast, slow, and at its own pace, but you will see progress, patience and observation is the key.
Thank you Jean for the cd's as I do feel that these in combo with what we are already doing, our baby girl is advancing in the right direction.

Subject: Byonetics ProgramDear Jean,
I am responding to this even though I don't have all the CD's ordered yet because of my own financial situation.
My own son Devon has been using the first CD at his institutional summer program. I am not there everyday but I have had two weekend visits. What I have noticed is that Devon is calmer, handles adversity much better and has placed himself into a position to be helpful to other children in the facility that are not as blessed as he.
I battled with autism and the effects autism had on his education and social interactions. I have spent years looking for answers just as many other parents of children with autism. It has been all the answers that come forth through your unselfish dedication of your time and money to help parents deal head on with the autism affliction. I have trouble managing three blogs and you answer every email and maintain a mailing list which keeps us connected as a group.I am so happy to be connected to everyone through you. I think you should name it the Byonetics Support Group.
I don't remember the subject line of your letter about Byonetics not being a treatment program but maybe we should all get a re-send of it. As parents of autistic children we have to sift through mounds of information and weigh it against all the general public view of information and that put out by the government. $400 and the monthly fee is such a minuet amount of risk when we are referring to a child with Autism. Drugs only treat symptoms but they do so at a high cost. My Devon has been baseline for two months. I may not like all the things I see when he is off drugs but it is a wake up call to the child I am dealing with. This is the second time Devon has been baseline and the child I see free and the child I saw on drugs was the same except the child on drugs seemed to not be receptive to change or learning.
Byonetics to me makes absolute sense because it follows the same sound technology for deep meditation. A person can change how they think and unblock pathways previously blocked bt trauma with this type of sound therapy---Why wouldn't it be a great starting point to use with other treatments? No one has anything to lose by trying Byonetics on their child. There are no ill side effects from the CD's unless you eat them and they do not interfere with any other therapies. It actually has a bonus! With the stresses of raising an autistic child often our wires get crossed up and fried. The first CD worked like a rejuvenation on me. I used it at bedtime after my son was long asleep. It was calming, produced a restful sleep and my next day felt as though I had been rejuvenated.
I always seem to have more then two cents to add---sorry. I know all about money and financial hardship. What some families are able to pay with minimal sacrifice has taken me almost six months to save which I might add should be done next week--hurray. I see Byonetics as an opportunity path for my son, one I can't chance failing at.Trinity

Jean's program is wonderful! Minutes after I put in the cd, my 7 year old sat on the couch for 20 minutes, very relaxed and focusing on an abc chart that I was trying to teach him. He would normally never sit down and focus. Yesterday, he was around a family that hasn't seen him in 6 months and they couldn't believe how much progress he has made. He was interacting with other children and asking them questions. I can't thank Jean enough for what he has done for our family.

we are new to the Byonetics program as we have only been using it for a month and a half or so for our 6 year old daughter. To date we have already seen some improvements, although minor they are still present. Like anything each child responds differently and at their own pace. Also don't forget you would still need to continue any speech and OT therapies or other programs you are currently utilizing even when you decide to start the Byonetics program. I too understand your concern it can be pricy, but Jean does have an affordable payment plan, and honestly we looked at it as there is nothing too expensie if it will help our baby girl.
Good luck in your decisions and I hope that this helps even just a little. Feel free to contact me if you need to.

Subject: Byonetics ProgramHello to all Parents contemplating on buying Bionetics,
I went to see my child's teachers for a Parent-Teacher conference and they have been so happy to report Mariel's much improved behaviour and they asked me if I made changes in her medications. I simply said please research on Bionetics because that was the only major change we did for the past 2 months and so.
I agree that money is tight and we should not just fall for anything presented to us. While Jean stressed on the Bionetics as a TECHNOLOGY and not a THERAPY, I would say that the simple therapies we are employing (which is making her attend a special community school) is more effective because she is more focused and manageable. So you have to continue complementing the CD technology with a therapy for your child but do not overload yourself and your child with it.
If you do buy the CDs, I would suggest that you have 2 players to use in alternate schedules. Like 1 in the daytime and another for the night time because I think I'm stressing my player and have changed twice for the last 2 months. I play the CD at night time at repeat mode.
Thanks... Monique

I'm not sure if it works as it has only been a couple of weeks. I can tell you that my son, who is almost 3, transitioned back into his crib after a year of sleeping with me, very easily.

Subject: Byonetics ProgramDearest Darcy,
We have been using the Cd's for 3 years now. When I was first researching therapies I was immediately drawn to the concept of dolphin frequencies and Jean's compelling story. I have lived on the beach all my life and when the dolphins come into my backyard (we live on an inter-coastal bay) all my anxiety, anger and resentments melt away. My son Gabe asks nightly "turn my dolphins on mommy". He has classic autism and will be turning 5 in September. He enjoys going to bed and sleeps soundly every night which is crucial for brain repair and development. The Cd's are not a magic pill but I believe they have been very instrumental in Gabe's development along with his other therapies.
I truly love our parent network and Jean. Both have been extremely generous to us these past 3 years. I remember my thoughts as I was deciding to purchase Byonetics...Here is a therapy that doesn't ask anything of my son, it is non-invasive and he will go to sleep with the most amazing creatures on earth..
PS everyone, Gorgeous Gabe is learning to read. A little progress update from IRB, FL
Warmest regards and many blessings,

Then I separated them and forgot or was not consistent with the CD's I many times would fall asleep before I moved the cd from one room after it was done playing to another. Then I wondered after 3 years do they need it. And then I started noticing sleep issues which had been long gone returning. I have started being more consistent with the cd's but play them in different orders or repeat days - wondering if after 3 years it would help to mix it up a bit. They are sleeping much better again.
Thank you,
Jeanne

Subject: question about colorsHello Mr.Jean
I received the Cd's finally and thank you for sending it to me so fast.
I am not sure if this is a coincidence but my little boy woke up early today and set at the table. Looked at me and asked me for pancakes. I cried all morning . So this is an encouragement for me.
Also, I was playing the environment CD all night and I didn't use the parent CD last night but when I woke up at 6 am i felt rested for the first time in so many years.
Thank you. I am hoping that Amin will be advancing and doing much better with his therapy with these CDs. Although he has external ear infection of both ears he still did well today at school, which is very surprising since when he has this condition he can not be managed at all due to the pain.
Thank you again Jean. I am hoping soon i will be writing more happy stories about him.
God Bless you.Tunde

Subject: Byonetics FamilyByonetics just makes sense as a piece of the puzzle. I was recently the Ghost writer
and collaborator of a book called Pieces of Our Puzzle---Byonetics as a piece of the
autism puzzle just seem to fit perfectly.Jean--words do not say enough for have you have given us all. Not with Byonetics alone
but with you--the unselfish person that gives their all as an advocate for autism and a
mediator for the sounding board. I hope someday I will have given as much to the cause
as you have.Thanks,
Trinity

Subject: good eye contactgErik is beginning to make good eye contact. My daughter noticed it when we were at a restaurant and Erik placed his order.
Usually, his eyes kind of wander but this time, he looked her in the face and clearly place his order without any prompts. Yeh!

Subject: Grayson update with Byonetics
Reply-To:Dear Group:
I wanted to take the opportunity to let you know that we had an advance last night. Something that I didn't think Gray may be able to ever do. But last night was the first night of league play for our local curling club. Using a delivery stick he was able to curl on my team. We lost, but Gray made a point for our team. He was able to enjoy playing a game with 31 other players on the rink, screaming out instructions and sweeping away. He wasn't over stimulated. There were not behaviors, but there were lots of smiles and high fives.
I would highly recommend curling with your child. It is a sport that limitations can be easily accomidated. Our club is working with Special Olympics to develop a U.S. program.

Subject: Update on ShrutHi Jean,
I know I am over due on an update for Shrut, so I decided to get down to it today. This might be a little long though, there are so many things that I would like to share, so please bear with me.
Its been exactly a month today since we have been using the CD's and a lot has changed in a month.
Let me first start with describing how things were a month ago...Shrut is a high functioning child, 16 yrs old. He is a mathematics mastermind (can do university level mathematics) and a computer ginius but lacks very very heavily in communicational skills. He also used to have some tics (used to make guestures really fast with his hands) and would sometimes shout and make loud noises. He is very independent when it comes to getting ready in the morning or if he is hungry he can cook something for himself too.
After using the CD's we have had alot of changes...
He is even more independent now, if thats even possible. He even acts like a rebelious teenager sometimes, which never happened before :)
The first morning after we played the CD's he woke up and looked into our eyes while adorning the most beautiful smile ever. He looked around as if things were new and was very interested in everything. He was very loving and caring for the entire day, more than ever. And his eye contact was fabulous!!
Then during the rest of the month...we made furthur progress...he now initiates conversation!!! I can not tell you how amazing that is!!! He always knew words but never quite used them...now he does...he is using sentences that he never has before and words that I never knew he knew...
I am very grateful for these changes...and I really can't thank you enough for coming up with these CDs.
He loves the CDs and calls them magic CDs! He makes sure we put the right one in every night. I am on cloud nine regarding his progress in language... its coming at a steady rate..he is able to say 2-3 sentences at a time and sometimes even jokes around. Oh, and the other big thing is that he has started lying!! And believe it or not I am very happy about this, it means he is growing up. Whenever he lies, he has this twinkle in his eye, that says catch me if you can! Its almost like he is testing us.
I am looking forward to sharing more of Shrut's progress with you in the future. Thank you so much Jean, for the wonderful job that you are doing, and also for this wonderful parents network where care givers can match notes, guide one another and cheer each other on as we all travel down the same road.
Yours sincerely,
Rrit

Subject: Kate speaking a little moreHi Jean,
We received our CDs and light right on schedule on July 24th.
I've noticed Kate speaking a little more, though it is still echolalia. A little less stimming behavior and the biggest one is she now sits on the sofa or bed when she is watching TV (most of the time anyway).
We have the environment CD on all the time, the parent CD on every night and the light on during the day and a new CD on every night for Kate.
Thanks for your help,
Kimberly
