At the age of five, Mickie had an immune panel done. It turns out that he had high IgE. A gastrenterologist (Dr. Chopra) looked at the test and told me he was to stay away from dairy. I took it a stem further and removed cereals too.

So last Friday before heading out of town for the graduation we got some Fidget Spinners for Mickie. He loves to ride in the car, but I wasn't sure how he would do sitting in a car for hours, so I thought the spinners would help him relieve anxiety.
Interesting enough his stimming movements are similar to the way you use a Fidget Spinner. I wish these were around years ago, since it would have saved his poor knuckles that have become swollen from all the years of rubbing them together.
He did very well with them and became very protective. He didn't want to share it with anyone.

I had planned on reintroducing Mickie to the subscribers of his channel now that he is an adult, but then the unthinkable happen and on June 30 2017, at around 7:15 he had his first Seizure. It was terrifying to watch and not be able to stop it or help him in any way. All I could do was wait for it to pass.
Now all I can do is hope there are no more.
He was not put on any anti seizure medication, because it's not yet know if he will have another, so I wait for something I don't want to happen again! :'(
The two videos before the seizure video are from a few days prior and looking back now, he was acting a bit odd, so if I see the same behaviors I will know what to expect.

For the last year and a half Mickie has been learning to through and catch a ball and I thought I should share his progress.

Mickie has regressive Autism. He was developing normally and then stopped going forward and regressed. The song for this video is "Corazon de Nino (Child's Heart) by Argentinian pianist Raul Di Blasio. This is a time-line video I made for my little boy. He started regressing into the world of autism at about 1 year old, and kept regressing even after the diagnosis at 22 months. He just kept getting worse right before my eyes and didn't know how to help him. (more)

Yesterday Mickie had an EEG to rule out Seizure activity. I've been a nervous wreck ever since the Seizure he had May 30th, 2017.
Today I received good news from his Neurologist. The EEG didn't detect any Seizures. Hopefully he won't have anymore.

Este video lo hize con mucho amor para mi hijo Mickie que desarrollo Autismo.Despues de su diagnostico official continuo perdiendose en su mundo de autismo. I made this video as a kind of therapy. When I look at this pictures it brakes my heart to see how he changed right before my eyes. Even after the diagnosis he kept regressing into Autism.
