My son Kyler was diagnosed with Autism when he was just 24 months old. Since that time we have done countless therapies and treatments with him to try and help and improve his quality of life with a long term goal of recovery. In addition to the biomedical treatments, Kyler has been in an intense educational program since his diagnosis. As of now Kyler has been a very slow responder and has made very slow steps towards our long term goal. At six years old Kyler is non verbal and needs help to do the most basic things. He wears pull-ups at night and during the day, we have to help him use the bathroom, get dressed, eat, and he requires constant supervision as he has no understanding of danger.

The doctors and therapies that we have tried with Kylet are all considered experimental and very few are covered by insurance. We have exhausted our savings, borrowed money and taken out loans to help pay for his treatments. We have just learned about a new and exciting treatment called Magnetic uResonce Therapy (MRT) - the treatment is here in California and takes place over 5 weeks. "The Brain Treatment Center provides a new alternative treatment using advanced electromagnetic technology focused on transforming the biological, behavioral, and medical aspects of autism. The technology developed at Brain Treatment Center, known as Magnetic Resonance Therapy (MRT™) is a combination of brain stimulation and brain scan technologies. This innovative treatment directly addresses neural deficits common in autism and directs brain activity towards a more neurotypical state."

They are seeing at very large success rate in the areas of language and communcation, sleep, intimacy with family members and a big improvement in eye contact.

The initial treatment itself will cost $14, 000. Any help you can give us will be more appreciated then you could ever imagine. We will never give up on trying to help our son improve. I am praying that this treatment will be the answer to our prayers, and that I will get to hear Kyler call me mommy.
