Infantile Spasms?
My son is 19 months old and suffered a birth injury. He was born gray and not breathing. Has severe brain injury resulting in him being completely disabled. He has cortical vision impairment,hypo-tonic quadriplegic CP, cannot swallow anything at all (even his own secretions), does not respond to sound, cannot hold his head, and has infantile spasms. We are working to get him off Topamax which sedates him so much he has trouble keeping his oxygen levels above 90% and he doesn't try to move anymore. I am doing an intense program with him where I stimulate all 5 senses for about an hour 5 times a day.I have tried Arnica, it might help a little but is not enough. What should I try? I want him off the seizure drugs (my doctor is willing to work with me and try to get him off). His last EEG showed about 23 seizures in a 24 hour time, each one lasting 10-30 seconds and requiring up to 30 minutes to recover. (Literally half his day is being spent recovering from seizures).
Any advice would be wonderful. Thank you for the help.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
which potency of Arnica did you try ?
faisal qureshi last decade
30C
I had tried one, 3 times a day when he was only about 10 pounds. He is now about 24 and I have just started doing 2, 4 times a day. I am not sure how long to give it before I should see improvement. I am also not sure if I should see them stop all together or just see less of them.
Thanks!

Dear Dillons Mom,
More often than before, parents come to consult me for the sake of their child who, from the very first day of his life, is suffering from brain damage.
Now before I go any further I want you to understand the following.
As you may know by now I am not a homeopath, I do not prescribe, all I am doing is teaching; learning people to forgive. Yes, many people today find it hard to belief in things they cant see, but this goes for guilt and fear as well. We may not be able to see it, but the person who has the feeling of guilt or fear inside of him surely will feel these stresses, and when you feel them, they exist.
Thought is a very powerful tool, it can make you run, you can lift your arm, or you can hurt someone for life. If we think incorrectly we will make mistakes and the effects we can see throughout the world. But mistakes are here to learn from, and if we learn to understand the mistake, we will be able to correct the mistake.
I meet countless mothers who have made many mistakes in their life. This is natural we wouldnt be humans otherwise. The guilt that mothers experience for their mistakes that havent been set right, is great but only a few dare to admit them. Mothers want their children to have a good life. Their wish is sincere but they dont really know what is good. They think that good is what they consider to be good.
Mothers are very touchy when it comes to their mistakes, and therefore you have to understand that this is not to blame you for the mistakes, no one is guilty, it is as it is. We never can blame someone for not knowing.
Your child is still very young, he has all the necessities to get healthy again, but only through the mother. How successfully a child can be released of his stresses, will depend on his mother. As long as the mother doesnt believe that diseases have their beginning in thinking, then the child cannot be sure either. And as long the mother doesnt believe that her thoughts have caused the childs sickness, the child can never be entirely cured from it.
Acute, life threatening situations are the result of wrong thinking, as well.
There is no mother who wouldnt say that she is living for their childrens sake but the moment she has to start to do something about her spiritual progress, she will start thinking of every kind of excuse, not to do it. I dont think Im able to do this, Im sure not everybody can learn this sort of thing. They will squirm and squiggle. Sometimes I have to look at a face like that and feel too ashamed for her sake to say to her face that I can see what she is thinking.
The certainty that orthodox medicine will always be there to help is rooted so deep that it seems pointless to make an effort, but this is my try to help your son, if you as a mother decide not to engage with me, then this is your right too, at least I have given you the chance to do something for your child.
The biggest amount of mothers I meet are unable to confess, it is their lack of faith that keeps them from releasing their stresses and that fear is blocking down their ability to think. Eventually, a long life of suffering follows.
If you see accusation in those words, you should know that this is your guilt speaking, demanding to be released without further notice.
In cases like Dillon, medicine is powerless, yes you can have nurses around the clock, all sort of programs that keep you busy, but this will not take care of the damage, nor will it take care of your heartache. Most mothers in these cases dont understand it there is nothing that they have left undone for their precious heir of the family. They dont understand that a child is love, the love that the people he came to love, obviously dont see. This is the sad destiny of children in a society of wrong thinking.
The mother standing at the sick bed of her child understands that the cause of his illness is her inability to love his father to be able to love her child then the child will be cured. Its illness was nothing but a lesson to the parents a lesson that has to be learned.
As I said before, more often, parents are seeing me for the sake of their children who, from the very first day of his life, is suffering from brain damage. It is hard to cause them even greater distress but unfortunately, telling the truth is the only way I can help. Wheres the problem then?
The problem is that women tend to think that their husbands are stupid. A woman who mocks, ridicules or despises her husband is courting destruction.
Women would like their husbands to be all-seeing and all-mighty Superman, reading the wifes every wish from her eyes, doing everything better then the next guy and allowing the wife to feel superior to other women. Should the husband be unable to deliver, the wife will feel insulted. The situation will become even worse if she, with her wish to keep up a polite front, keeps her irritation locked inside. Making a scene is supposed to be a sign of bad taste and low intelligence and so a nice person will keep her mouth shut, gathering her bitter anger for her disappointments and hurt. Is this a situation that occurs immediately after the child is born a time when both mother and child are very vulnerable it can happen that a new-born with no inborn sicknesses can fall ill even under the best of care. The mothers anger had to find a place to attach itself. As the target for the mothers irritation was the fathers mental capacity, based in the brain then the energy of anger will plunge into the childs brain to destroy his mind.
If the mother acknowledges her mistake and corrects it immediately, the childs brain will heal without any complications.
Dear Dillons Mom, I hope you have read this carefully and understood the point Im trying to make. Although I have not all the particulars I am certain it plays a role, It is not to late to do something, if you care for your childs health then you are ready to belief in the power of thought, but it has to come from you, because only you (the mother) has the strongest connection with the child, you have been connected via the umbilical cord, the child knows everything you know, this is a fact. In case you want to know more, or you feel talking to me, please drop a line.
