Memorable Moments:
“He said, ‘I’m trying. I want to follow what everybody was asking me to do. They want me to sit still. I really want to do it. But the thing is, I don’t know how'… He said he couldn’t do it, even though he wanted to.”
”An ADHD journey or an ADHD diagnosis doesn’t necessarily look the same for everyone.”
“He was gluten-free for two weeks…The first thing I noticed - and I was shocked - was his handwriting. His handwriting improved so much. And so did his sleep. It was like magic.”
”When I first started, I was skeptical. I was nervous. I wasn’t sure if I was making the right choice…”
”The number one thing that I did was I focused on the food that he can eat. I did not focus on the foods that he can’t eat.”
“If you’re skeptical but then you saw ‘Dana Kay’ on Facebook or you saw ‘ADHD Thrive Institute,’ it’s a good sign. Take it as a good sign because this is help that the universe is sending to you…I wish I had delved into it right away.”
“If you are skeptical, try it. There’s nothing to lose…It’s an investment in your child. It’s an investment in their body…They will feel better and they’re going to tell you.”
