I’m Olga, mother of Milana, 5.4 years old, Chernomorsk, Odessa region. We arrived for treatment at 4.10. Diagnosis of ASD. Before treatment with the professor, we went through 7 circles of hell, there’s no other way to describe it! Our thorny path began at 1.8 years old, when we had a revaccination. After 2 weeks, the child completely withdrew into himself, lost emotions, lost eye contact, began walking in circles, spinning all objects, standing on his head, endless stereotypical behavior. She ran from wall to wall, mooing that drove her crazy. My daughter lost normal sleep. She woke up in the middle of the night and walked for 3-5 hours. I didn’t understand day or night, everything was confused in my head, she woke up and screamed, poor neighbors and me. I locked one room because she would wake up and run around and destroy everything. My world turned upside down when I learned about the diagnosis of my long-awaited child. I didn’t sleep for 4 days and hallucinations began. I was prescribed antidepressants, which made me feel like I was after a terrible binge, and I started having suicidal thoughts. At that moment, my husband, Milana’s dad, was on the flight and I was alone going through this whole nightmare.
Our ordeal with all the doctors, healers, astrologers, and chiropractors began. And one night I found on social media. networks, a mother who recommended a metabolic psychiatrist who helped them in a situation similar to ours. But getting to her was a whole quest, the doctor is from Moscow and there’s a whole line to see her, you have to wait. The consultation cost me $300 in half an hour, online. Without seeing the child. But I was in despair; in Odessa we were offered nootropics and micropolarization. That’s why I decided. We waited a month for this consultation, I was so hoping for a magic pill. But… They drew up a protocol for us for half a year, it included cleansing of parasites, viruses, healing of the mucous membrane, so you understand, a 2-year-old child took more than 20 tablets and dietary supplements a day. This protocol cost about $600, and I looked for all these dietary supplements and pills in Europe, Russia and ordered them from America. And we had 3 or 4 such protocols. I don’t even remember, I believed and hoped. But the miracle never happened (the last protocol completely demolished Milasha’s entire behavior. She simply did not sleep, threw herself, ate little, bit me until there was blood and scars. She banged her head on the floor. I wrote to the doctor, but it was simply impossible to reach her by phone. It was accepted decision to cancel everything. In addition to this, there were a lot of classes. Sensory integration, neuropsychologist, swimming, speech pathologist, horse therapy, osteopath (130 euros per month), we had to sell the apartment in Arcadia (near the sea in Odessa) because these rehabilitations coincided. With Covid, my husband couldn’t go on a flight for a year, but I’m a persistent mother and I couldn’t waste time. A tense atmosphere at home began, there was no improvement, the long-awaited apartment with a sea view was sold, but the child only got worse, there was no talk, hysteria, sleep. no one has (((I remember the goosebumps.
The war started and we had to go to Romania, where we sat without classes 1.8 (There was no improvement, no improvement, the child got sick with rotavirus and it got even worse, a rollback (One fine day a woman came up to me at the refugee center (I remember her with warmth and trepidation) She took me aside and said: I had a child like you, go to the Dnieper, to see Professor Vagif Mamedovich Rakhmanov.
Now the child speaks well, goes to the potty and everything is fine with us, and they have gone through 2 stages in total. And from that moment this thought did not let me go. My mother was with me in Romania at that time (God bless her 🙏 She had cancer and I couldn’t break down and leave like that, she was undergoing chemotherapy under the program for refugees. Mom’s treatment reached a dead end, we were told that unfortunately they couldn’t help anymore and my mother’s desire was to return home, on her last journey 😭My mother passed away on October 6, 2023, her wish was for me to go to Dnieper and on November 11, a month after my mother passed away, I was already in Dnieper. After the first stage, the child improved. sleep, she began to fall asleep quickly and without hysterics, sleeps all night, her understanding of speech has improved, she started trying new foods, nuts, olives. But of course I noticed significant improvements 🏠 at home the teachers say, I don’t know what you were doing, but keep doing the same. spirit.
Eye contact has improved, it has become more stable, the addressed Mom has appeared 🤩 We arrived at the second stage in March. After the second stage, or rather in the middle, the child began to eat himself, with a fork and spoon, before that he didn’t even want to try to eat himself. I began to play with children, to interact, and not just push or take away a toy. From the latest achievements, I learned to ride a scooter in 2 days. Before this, I couldn’t even walk a couple of steps, I didn’t understand what I needed to do, but now she’s racing, we can’t catch up. In the kindergarten he eats fish soup 😳 Fish cutlets, pumpkin and apple compote. Previously, the smell of pumpkin caused a gag reflex. We are very, very grateful to the Professor 🙏 The entire team of the Institute. When I leave treatment, I already want to come back. My insomnia has gone away, I used to fall asleep only with pills (I took Atarax, melatonin, glicin, gedazepam and much more. She was like a drug addict! If Atarax ended and I was in Romania, panic began. I ordered it in Ukraine and sent it, it’s scary to remember. Now I sleep great, I wake up rested. The “weather in the house” has improved. There are fewer quarrels with my husband, more peace of mind and faith that everything will be fine. I’m already planning a trip to Dnepr in September.
