KUNAL MAKES REGRESSION RECOVERY IN 8 WEEKS USING TNI, NATUROPATHY + SUPPORT
Its bittersweet adding another regression recovery story to my website. You can’t imagine how excited and relieved these parents are when their child, who previously, was either catatonic ie. showing no signs of interacting with the world, or worse still, aggressive, start to recover.
As you will read in this article, Kunal was a Gold medalist in swimming and basketball in the special Olympics. There was nothing stopping him. He was independent, loved dancing and wanted to study acting.
Then things took a turn. Let me reassure you, when adults with T21 spiral into regression, there is usually a long history of medical intervention at its core including antipsychotic drug medication, antibiotics, surgery etc. The body loses its ability to maintain homeostasis (balance) and stops functioning.
And when these adults recover, its not without alot of work behind the scenes from parents paying for Naturopathic tests, supplements, support, mentors like Julia Sheppard , Tamera Ragan who give their free time and experience to parents to get them on the regression recovery protocol and of course Dixie Lawrence and David Swenson who we are indebted to for countless hours of research pulling the recovery protocol together.
Kunal’s mum Sandhya has been sending me photo’s and video’s of Kunal in the past few days cooking again, dancing, painting after years of mental health issues. The relief and happiness to have your child back from regression cannot be described and that’s why I encourage these parents to write their stories, to share with the world. We can learn so much from them.

Hi
Do you have any other stories of recovery (from regression) of young adults with DS? So far I have only found 3. I am looking for hope for my daughter (aged 21).
Most regression patients recover but it takes time. Join TNI-Beginners Group on Facebook. From there we will connect you with the admins for the recovery group.

Years ago my son was in the book that was published, we did TNI for a time and NACD. David is 26 now and I’d like to reconnect with parents, get info on adults with DS etc. where is the best place to do that? The FB group mentioned in comments ? Thank you.
Go to TNI-Beginners Group on FB. Answer all the questions. Kids who remained on it have gone on to beat all the odds. Things have improved over the years as we can now down regulate over expressed genes as well as tending to oxidative stress
Hi here! We are on Facebook. Join TNI Beginners Group to meet and become reacquainted with other parents.
