“Never, never, never give up.”

“When your child is diagnosed with autism, no one tells you what to do next,” said Keith Geary, whose son has autism. “Autism diagnosis rates are rising, it’s becoming more and more common, and yet there wasn’t an obvious solution to help our son, Aaron.”

Realizing your child has autism can be devastating. Keith and Joni want you to know that there is hope. Autism is treatable!

After searching the internet and researching various resources, Keith and Joni visited Dr. Bryan Jepson, Medical Director of Thoughtful House Center for Children in Austin, Texas, to explore biomedical treatment, which treats autism as a metabolic disease affecting the gastrointestinal, immune, toxicological, and neurological systems.

Biomedical treatment addresses bowel abnormalities, toxins in the body, immunological disorders and other medical conditions prevalent in children with autism. As the body begins to heal, so does the brain, increasing a child’s ability to learn and making interventions such as Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA), Relationship Development Intervention (RDI), as well as Speech and Occupational Therapies more effective.

Biomedical intervention improves the health of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, making recovery possible. “Autistic” behaviors improve when a child feels well.

When Aaron began biomedical treatments, the Geary’s started noticing results.

“He’s not cured, but he’s getting better,” Joni said. “We want other parents with autistic children to know there is a treatment that provides hope for a brighter future for our children!”

In August 2007, Keith and Joni founded Aaron’s Bridge to facilitate access to more treatment options in Oklahoma for children with disabilities, including Autism Spectrum Disorder. Their first priority is to build a biomedical treatment and research facility in Oklahoma.
