Family Reports Improvements in Autism Symptoms

The following testimonial is excerpted from pages 415-417 of Healing the Symptoms Known as Autism, 2nd Edition by Kerri Rivera, published in 2014.

The book outlines a protocol in which chlorine dioxide is a key component. More recent editions have since been released with updated information.

Puerto Ordaz, November 4th, 2011

My name is Carolina Moreno and my husband is Rafael Colmenares. We are the lucky parents of a little 6-year-old whose name is Ana Victoria. She came to this world to give us the world’s greatest lesson. Through her we have learned the real value of life, to be steadfast and brave. We learned that it’s our job to fight for our dreams if we want to accomplish them, and above all we’ve learned that God is who holds us up and gives us the strength and tools to move forward.

My journey with Autism began on the 27th of March of 2007. My daughter Ana Victoria was 23 months old. Her initial development was normal, but little by little she stopped talking, she didn’t understand anything, she didn’t miss her parents, she didn’t play with other children or even her toys, she didn’t like to be kissed or hugged. She acted as if she was deaf, but we didn’t know that all this were symptoms of Autism.

It wasn’t until the day that we went to a neurologist in our area that someone told us that this was Autism, an incurable condition, and that our daughter would have it all her life. It was a very hard moment for us. All of our plans to be a happy and healthy family went down in a matter of hours.

As parents we didn’t want to give up. After recovering from the horrible news, we began looking for information on how to help Ana Victoria. In our country of Venezuela there were 4 specialists in Autism and they were all using the gluten and casein free diet, vitamin therapy, as well as expensive tests performed in the United States to check candida and bacteria. Thanks to them I learned how important the diet was to get Ana back from Autism. Without it, recovery would be impossible.

We did some testing through Great Plains Labs, and the results indicated candida, bacteria, inflammation and much more. We started with Ketazol and Flegyl. My daughter was taking up to 400 mg of Ketazol even though she was barely three years old. Now with everything I’ve learned I cannot believe that a physician could prescribe such a high dose to a child who is only 3 years old and weighs only 16 kg. That alone should be punished and criticized.

However, I felt that I wasn’t doing the right thing. Years passed. Ana Victoria was 5 and her comprehension and attention levels were very low. My husband always thought there had to be something else we could do.

One day my dear friend Carolina Garcia talked to me about Kerri Rivera’s blog. She told me that it explained the reason for the supplements and the hours they had to be taken, for example that the antifungals had to be given away from food and the probiotics worked better if they are given at night. After I read her blog and visited her website in July 2010, I called the Clinic Autism02 and Kerri Rivera herself answered me. I explained my daughter’s case, and she asked me to give her an opportunity to help, and if in 2 months we didn’t see anything different with our daughter we could continue doing what we always did.

I told my husband and we agreed to try. I felt a great sense of peace when Kerri told me, “I’m here, and I promise I will walk with you until we recover your daughter.”

In August Ana Victoria was on Kerri’s full protocol and in November God gave me the opportunity to go to Puerto Vallarta, México. An entire month in this city where my daughter received hyperbaric chamber treatments. We started with MMS, plus we got together with Kerri at her home every night with pen and paper. She explained to us step by step how we could heal our children. From that moment a beautiful friendship was born between Kerri and I.

This is when I understood that Autism is caused by a weakness of the immune system and this brings as consequences viruses, bacteria, candida, intestinal and brain inflammation, food allergies and contamination with heavy metals, and that it is necessary to attack every aspect to be able to heal Autism.

On the 23rd of November Ana Victoria started to take MMS, and in 30 days of treatment we noticed the first changes. My daughter’s stools were consistent; there were no food residues or foul smells. When I came back from Vallarta I was full of new knowledge and a lot of MMS bottles. Ana Victoria already had a very well defined protocol, and the best thing was that it wasn’t a long list of supplements, only 7, MMS and Theralac.

Everyone in my family noticed a great change in our daughter: better eye contact, controlled hyperactivity. She started saying her first words with sense and purpose: “I want park please,” “I want food please,” “I want to sleep.” She was doing much better in therapy and at school. Anita had begun her way back to the world she left when she was 1 and a half years old.

When I saw this improvement in my daughter I decided to share my experience with other members of my community. It was there with my dear friend Yamileth Paduani and her husband Alejandro Teran that Fundación Venciendo el Autismo was born.

Mr. Alejandro asked if Kerri could come to Venezuela and talk to parents in a simple way so everyone could understand that Autism is curable. Kerri was delighted to accept the invitation and in only 7 months of work we had 2 conferences and many evaluations. Nowadays there are 700 kids on Kerri’s protocol that is: casein, soy, gluten and sugar free diet, some supplements depending on every child, MMS and Theralac. The results are very positive and there are hundreds of families that have started with their children’s recovery.

Then came the great discovery of the parasite protocol. For me, it was the missing piece in my daughter’s puzzle. The first few months were severe (fever, laughter, hyperactivity) and many worms in her stool. However, after all these worms came out I saw how her mind cleared, and month by month we waited for the full moon to deworm.

Ana Victoria is now improving very quickly. She is a girl that enjoys being with her family, the park, and going out. She goes to school and tells me that she now does her work in silence without crying. When I arrive home she greets me with a smile, runs to me and calls me Mom. She tells me what she wants and what she doesn’t. She can use the computer like an expert. She takes her own shower and dresses herself, she even picks out her clothes. She knows when Christmas is coming and that there will be gifts. Her therapists and her shadow teacher are really happy to see how Anita is progressing day by day.

Yesterday we were all at the table eating lunch and she pointed with her finger: “Papa’s food, Mama’s food and Ana Kikota’s food… yummy… heeheehee.” My husband and I were laughing with excitement and happiness. Some time ago we felt that speech would be nearly impossible for Ana Victoria.

My advice: do not be afraid of MMS… be afraid of Autism; that which is unforgiving and has the power to destroy lives and families if we don’t attack it on time.

We are grateful to God because He has never abandoned us and has always given us the strength and tools to fight and to believe that it is possible to recover our children. We thank God for putting Kerri in our path and we ask God to bless her every day for having such a big and noble heart, she who is always helping others in a selfless way. We also thank Jim Humble and Andres Kalcker for helping us find the missing piece in this great puzzle that is Autism. We can do it!!!

To all of you, many sincere thanks for helping the children in my country. Blessings,
