MMS : Day 20 ~ Stasis

20 drops activated MMS (Keavy's) = 10 drops activated standard MMS, total of 10 doses.

We stayed at 10 drops (henceforth shall be writing in terms of standard MMS) today, will prolly stay here at 10 drops for another day before (cautiously) ramping up to 11 drops the day after tomorrow. 

I suspect it's not so much Herxing but Jojo swallowing too much air when he's gulping down the morning MMS doses.  The air enters his tummy, makes him burp and regurgitate the MMS. Still... it's better to err on the side of caution.

Not a bad day for Jojo today. Generally calm but not languid.  Short, intermittent bursts of annoyance whilst at his gran's.

Enema: 

Given at 6pm -- 20 drops MMS in 1 litre. Seems to be able to take in and hold in more for a little bit longer than usual.  I haven't come to the point where I am "poop diving" yet, so I don't really know if there are any parasites coming out on the MMS oral and enemas alone.

I'm kinda keen though, to finally confirm my 'suspicions' that Jojo does indeed suffer from parasite infestation. However I will need to reach max dose of MMS (i.e. 26 drops) for Jojo's weight before I can start the PP. Since each month's PP begins 2 days before the full moon and is therefore at a specific time, I can only jump on the wagon next month, In shaa Allah.  Hopefully would have safely reached max dose by then.

Sleep:

Beautifully peacefully.  I notice that he sleeps very well on days when he gets an enema.  Kerri suggests daily enemas, so I shall follow from now on.

MMS : Day 3 ~ The Beginning of Speech?

3 drops of activated MMS in 8oz of water.

Observations:

Jojo seemed to be "happily agitated" (I can't quite describe it any other way!) still today, smiling whilst grabbing/poking but I noticed less of the grabbing and poking than yesterday.

However, the biggest "high" of the day was when he handed me his iPad to ask for pancakes using Proloquo2go and said "pampam". Prior to this, if he wanted to request anything using the Proloquo2go from me, he'd just press the pic/icon of the item he wanted and leave the iPad lying around without even passing it to me, without saying anything. So when I first heard him say "pampam" yesterday, I thought I was just hearing things. (I have a pretty wild imagination :P) I put it down to me wanting to hear him say something so much.Then, later in the evening, he practically shoved his iPad under my nose and said, "pampam!" again and the pic of the pancake was right there in the item requested window!

As I posted in the MMS Autism Facebook Group, I don't know if it was magic / my imagination / MMS but I felt like doing cartwheels XD

For a child who is extremely reluctant to open his mouth to verbalise anything, this was a HUGE deal. 

As this is only our 3rd day, at 3 drops... I am hoping that this just the start of many more good things to come. Aamiin.

I was worried that he might not like the taste of the MMS but he seems to take to it all right.  I put the baby bottle in the fridge so he gets to drink the MMS chilled.

Sleep:

Went out like a light and slept on peacefully till the morning.

MMS : Day 2

2 drops of activated MMS in 8 ozs of water today (effectively 1/4 of a drop per hourly dose).

Jojo was supposed to go for his riding lesson yesterday but we decided to call it off due to his "hyperactivity". He's not upset nor angry, just seems to be in a state of "excitement" -- lots of tapping/poking/pinching too today.  Jojo is very strong for his age and a tap can feel like a shove.  His Dad brought him to the pool though and he said that at one point Jojo came up from behind him and gave him a shove that almost made him land in the pool! (Now that would have been one for the album XD - Ed.)

Observations:

• Slightly elevated body temperature enough to flush his cheeks pink after 3 doses or so. (Apparently flushes are part of the Herxheimer Syndrome)
• Very much less coughing than yesterday. Read on the MMS Facebook Group that coughing after taking MMS could be due to parasites in the lung dying. Hmmm.
• Increased hyperactivity and "excitement" still there. It's like he doesn't quite know what to do with himself but is besides himself with excitement. Lots of verbal stim too.

Sleep:

Woke up earlier than usual.

MMS : Day 1

Following Kerri Rivera's MMS (baby bottle) protocol, we started off with 1 drop of activated MMS in 8 ozs of water stored in a glass baby bottle.

Jojo is given 1 oz of the mixture hourly, so effectively he is getting 1/8th of a drop each time. His first dose was given after school at 1 pm.  He is now given 8 doses only although my reading tells me that it is a minimum.  I suppose I could increase up to 9-12 doses a day but I'm kinda leery of the possible increase in die-off effects too.

Given a choice, the joys of dealing with die-off is not exactly something I want to deal with right now given the "state of flux" this house is in since the departure of the very able Diva of Semarang T__T  Seriously, there are days when I think I should move back to a 1,500 sq feet box in the air :P

Observations:

• Jojo seemed to have an elevated body temperature after about 3 doses. Not a full-blown fever but a slight elevation of temperature, higher than normal.  
• He started coughing in the late afternoon as well which continued into the night.  Not continuous but sounded quite chesty/phlegm-y.  
• Seemed more hyperactive beginning in the early evening with excited grabbing, pinching and poking. (I have a bruise to attest to a particularly STRONG poke!)

Sleep:
