A 5-yr-old burned to death in a sealed glass coffin of pressurized oxygen that an “alternative medicine” wellness center claimed could treat his ADHD. This was a cash business providing unapproved therapies. There is no evidence to support hyperbaric for ADHD; there’s not even a plausible mechanism.

it's even featured in the first deadpoll movie
like wtf
he would have died was it not for his powers you know the ones that are fake and real people don't have
Plus the inventor of chiropracty said a ghost taught him how to do it.
would you like to know more?
Stimulants immediately bring PFC resource use closer to neurotypical fMRI scans & convergence increases throughout long-term medication use.

if only more folks were so sensible
ADHD/autism are not disorders, they are a different operating system. You can’t cure Linux.
For example, you don't need to want to kill someone for drunk driving to be bad. Drunk driving is just bad because it's dangerous.
To me this is more like the folks that ended up taking dangerous drugs during the pandemic. Misguided, dangerous, but not malicious.
Doesn’t change the tragic outcome though :(
Hope.

IF ONLY we had an effective front line treatment for ADHD in the form of low dose oral stimulants, which have a proven track record of both safety and efficacy when taken at therapeutic levels under the care of a physician.
This is an rfk jr approved treatment for vampires and their ADHD
Cash only hyperbaric therapy seems super legit
Revoke their rights immediately.
Maybe they were just horribly misinformed and exploited.
Not an excuse, though.
Either way, that mom has a memory she will never, ever shake, the sort that only truly epic bastards should have to endure.
If I got my hands on a time machine, I wouldn't waste it on revenge. If only the parents had gone to a paediatrician.
Lots of different words for it, but that's the main thing.
Sure it’s more striking and shocking than homeopathy or crystals and shit, but it’s all the same thing… Same mindset, same goals same results. Grift money from people and cause them to suffer and die…
Incinerating your child inside a sealed glass coffin: 😀👍
Now that I am aware I have autism adhd and a bunch of trauma due to my neurodivergence being constantly mismanaged and punished I’m left with a broken brain and an uphill battle for a stable life
Feels pretty culty, though.
I think that's what these parents did. Why they can't just accept their kid being wired differently from themselves.
..or not excel in the field the parents have decided etc.
Those poor kids.
Like someone will willingly let a kid die like this in an effort to do what? Prevent the kid from simply being different?
When my son was diagnosed, my parents said:
"That's just his little personality."
Parenting is a fluid process.
When I asked why this and coping strategies had been withheld and made me think I was just a fuckup?
"Well, you still fucked up, didn't you?"
Me:
They just worried about stigma or my father's real charming, "We didn't want you to have any excuses."
I mean... it seems so incredibly trivial now, seeing this.
I sought my own diagnosis. Although I had supportive parents, I was traumatised by going undiagnosed for so long, trying to fit into the wrong system.
I've never met an Autism Mom that didn't cheerfully discuss putting at least one of their child's friends "out of their misery" so that her parents could be "set free". Lots of talk about government slavery and worthless burdens.

You really can't exaggerate how people loathe neurodivergence, no matter how hard you try.
Especially getting a brain injury at 2. I hope you get decent support soon.
I've had to work it out on my own through two bush administration's, then Obama but left U.S. for Europe in 2010, to get better help. Got some answers in EU. Home in 2018, near fatal car accident 2023 and finally, I'm getting heard by a Dr who supports me. 25y journey.
There is no normal. Only a bunch of brains trying to survive and thrive. Our body is but a vessel for our brain. Kinda like Krang.
As COVID proved, "normal" people are "stupid as fuck"!
What I have been taught by professionals is only that autism is hereditary.
You shouldn’t even be able to purchase medical devices without a license.
Reserve Hague for Sacklers, United Carbide, and Coke's Colombian paramilitaries.
... but in this case I can say she's as close to True Evil as a person gets. Like DnD style.
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;

These people are literally just taking a box...
The scams built around trying to protect your children from real medicine are getting worse and worse
You shouldn't, but if you're going to do something useless, at least be thrifty.

But once the chambers escaped medical supervision, they got marketed like that “blue light therapy” crap you see on roadside paper signs. No need for even a plausible theory.
“Oxford Center’s website lists over 100 conditions it says it treats, including many that the FDA has not approved for hyperbaric oxygen therapy, such as cancer, dyslexia, Alzheimer’s, Lyme disease and autism.”
Important to note that his mother burnt her arm trying to rescue him from the fire.
This child was loved. His parents must be both guilt and grief stricken.
Parents of young kids are easy to scare. And scared parents are easy to take advantage of.
