Inflammation

I want to come back to inflammation. It is what cripples and kills our kids. It is where hospitals take a ‘wait and see’ attitude. Nothing was done for Robert to control swelling during the critical first three days after injury. We recommend hypothermia, fish oil and various conventional supplements (Vit C/D/E and CBD) be […]

Hyperbaric Ambulance

Exciting new developments in the quest for early hyperbaric intervention! HyperVan, the first bespoke hyperbaric ambulance. Not only will this help prevent injuries like Robert’s but it will greatly improve resuscitation efforts and ameliorate reperfusion injury with heart attack and stroke. Click the picture below for more information.

Storming

I recently had a parent ask about storming. In answering her, I realized that I don’t think I’ve ever addressed the topic as a standalone subject. I’ve edited my reply to her here. Storming is the brain sending out ‘noise’ and seems to increase with aggravation and pain.  So the first guidance is to be […]

Memories

This is an update on some interesting aspects of Robert’s recovery and a caution to parents and medical personnel about what you say when you are around these ‘comatose’ kids. In short, they hear and remember everything. Earlier this year, after a therapy session with a family friend, Robert drew that friend to the sofa, […]

Organ Donation

I have delayed writing this for a long time because I had questions I couldn’t answer.  I now have answers and they aren’t comforting. Shortly after Robert was revived and moved to the PICU we met the LifeGift vultures.  They came into the room several times a day encouraging organ donation with all sorts of […]

Functional Neurology

I am using the Functional Neurology title to cover all of the chiropractic intervention Robert has received, though some of his practitioners may not embrace the term. My other possible title for this post was M.D. versus D.C. While we have interacted with some great M.D.’s during Robert’s journey, we also encountered a majority who […]

Laser Light Therapy

I am adding this as a standalone post since so many people have asked what is being done in Robert’s therapy post on facebook. There will be another post on Functional Neurology following. https://fb.watch/9KFcPjLTKG/ Laser Light Therapy is only a small part of what is being done for Robert in these videos. The laser introduces […]

Gabapentin/Baclofen/Benzodiazepines

This is probably going to be another rant. While I don’t know the statement to be entirely true, my other possible title was, “Tone never killed anybody.” We have seen multiple children that were weaned be put back on drugs to, ‘help with the tone.’ Like a slow poison, we watch these kids break down […]

Rest

Restoring a drowned child is a marathon not a sprint. In our drive to help our kiddos heal, it is critical to remember that healing consumes a large amount of energy. These kiddos need love, good nutrition and lots of rest. The body can only do what the brain is ready to do. The brain […]

CVI (Cortical Visual Impairment)

Never say DrownedBaby isn’t customer led and responsive to requests! Actually, I was asked about CVI and when I logged in tonight to work on an old post I had started on REST, I found I had also started a post on CVI. Here is my response to the parent that asked about CVI – […]
