An Unseen Enemy: Could This Be Affecting Your Child?

Hey, What's Up! It's Tommy. This episode is a big one—personal, emotional, and, quite honestly, a little overwhelming. I’ve always been open about doing whatever it takes to help Wyatt live his best life, even if it means exploring paths that might seem unconventional. Today, I’m diving into something that took years of research, testing, and serious soul-searching: parasites.

Yep, you read that right. Parasites.

For a long time, I dismissed the idea. It sounded absurd. But after working with doctors, running tests, and tracking Wyatt’s symptoms, we uncovered something shocking that might be affecting more kids than we realize. In this episode, I walk through our journey, the signs we saw, the steps we took, and the mind-blowing results we witnessed firsthand.

If you’re struggling to find answers for your child’s health, I encourage you to listen with an open mind. This isn’t medical advice—it’s just a dad doing everything possible to help his son.

Key Takeaways

• Keeping an Open Mind: When navigating the world of autism and special needs, you’ll find yourself researching things you never imagined.
• Signs and Symptoms: Wyatt experienced restless sleep, dark under-eye circles, behavioral struggles, and a need to put things in his mouth—all of which can be linked to parasites.
• The Testing Process: We confirmed parasite eggs in Wyatt's system through stool testing and working with a nurse practitioner.
• Treatment and Detoxing: After a carefully researched cleanse, the results were undeniable. His sleep improved, his behaviors shifted, and something inside of him was finally gone.
• The Bigger Picture: Over 60 million people in the U.S. are estimated to have parasites, yet regular cleansing isn’t standard practice here. Why?

I don’t have all the answers, but I’ll always share what I learn. If this episode blew your mind, sit with it, pray on it, and research for yourself. And if it resonates, please help me spread awareness by sharing this episode with someone who might need it.

Thanks for being here. Thanks for keeping an open mind. And as always, let’s keep fighting for our kids.
