FINALLY A DAN DOCTOR!!
Posted by

For those of you who do not know what a DAN doctor is, it stands for Defeat Autism Now, and in a short version, it means they are trained in bio - medical treatments for children with autism and also typical treatments too. Now when I say bio medical, that term in the autism community means, any supplements (vitamins, acidophilus ect) HBOT, dealing with yeast overgrowth in their systems and LOTS more (check out the sites I mentioned before). Anyway, thanks to my wonderful friends who shall remain nameless, I was finally able to take him to see Dr.Bradstreet. You may be asking why would it take so long, well these doctors cost $450 for an 1.5 hour session AND they are not covered under Arizona Long Term Care insurace. But thankfully we are finally on the road to try and recover my handsome boy from autism. One of the most disappointeing things you come across on this journey called autism is the financial burden it takes to try all the things out there to see if they work for your child, and when you are a single momma who had to quite her full time good paying job to take care of her son, its almost impossible to cover the costs for our DAN doctor. With lab test costing anywhere from $60 - $470 and supplements totalling for one month up to almost $350 you can see how this can be overwhelming. So right now, I am on a mission to figure out what to do. Keep praying for us !
