I’m the mother of Damir Smirnov 7 y.o diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder ASD. The first came to the institute when my son was 5 years old in the summer of 2021. He didn’t look into the eyes. He didn’t understand the spoken language. Steam started in 2022, they consulted with the teacher of the junior high school. classes and she saw how he was banging a pen and a pencil on the desk – she expressed concern about whether he would be able to write at all, the stima were so strong. vocalization – he covered his ears with his hands from various sounds. problems with the gastrointestinal tract – he did not digest food well, he suffered from constipation and diarrhea. selectiveness in food – it is easier to say that he eats what he does not eat. allergies fear of the dark laid out the toys in a row. was constantly twisting something in his hands, biting everything (chargers, table, etc.). turned to psychologists, neurologists, psychiatrists. some advised to simply accept such a special child, such a fate, and give birth to another, but normal one))). drank various nootropics pantogam, cerakson, cognum, risset and so on. I don’t remember some just caused allergies.
After the 1st stage, the next day he started deliberately saying mom, dad, give, and before that he just repeated dadadadad, papapapa and that was it. a good sound imitation began. at least started to try some new food. noticed the animals. understanding of the target language improved. looked much better in the eyes and so on. improvement was noticed by everyone who knew and communicated with us. there was a long break. we arrived at the 2nd stage already in the summer of 2023. after the 2nd, 3rd, 4th stage, everything gradually improved (slowly, but better step by step).
Damir has grown up very well, his immunity has strengthened (he gets sick much less after treatment). you can negotiate with him. he makes it clear what he wants, what hurts, what bothers him, what he doesn’t want. now I am very happy my child is eating bulgarian sweet pepper) and trying new food. took a spoon began to sit and write more and longer. During the winter and spring, I only had nosebleeds a few times (this is almost nothing compared to what happened – in the fall, spring, I woke up every other day with a pillow covered in blood. I have much less allergies (in the past, some inflammation appeared on the cheeks, swollen eyes, nose ) now I still have some allergies to dust and cats.
He cut his nails without any problems, stopped being afraid of the dark, stopped covering his ears with his hands. when sleeping, the tongue is in the mouth where it should be. his eyes seemed to open. wants to play with children. weather dependence, pressure drops have almost disappeared. began to eat much less sweets. I am very satisfied with the results, my son makes me happy every day. although he has an exacerbation for the first time in 4 stages. and without aggravation there is no improvement. so after support, I expect to be even more surprised and happy with Damirchyk’s improvements).
As for me, the “bowel” pains have passed, the twitching of the eyes has passed. what pleases me the most is that the pain in the joints does not bother me. and even improving mental health I want to live.
I am very grateful to Professor Vagif Rakhmanov and the entire team of the center for their sensitivity, support and hope.
THANK YOU!!!
