This might just look like a kid building a house on a screen.
But to me… it’s everything.
For almost a year, brain inflammation slowly took pieces of my boy - his focus, his interests, his ability to create and engage with the things he once loved. We stood at the edge of some really big decisions… the kind no parent ever wants to make. SSRIs. Invasive testing. Long specialist lists. Endless “what ifs.”
And then God placed the right people in our path. The kind of angels you don’t forget.
We chose a different road - one that focused on calming and supporting his brain.
Molecular hydrogen.Phosphatidylcholine.Sound therapy.
Simple things. Gentle things. And they became the game changers.
Tonight he picked up the controller again. And what you’re seeing isn’t just a Minecraft build - it’s healing in real time.
Because this is a child who hasn’t had the capacity or desire to build in over a year… and now he’s back designing entire worlds. Homes with multiple rooms and textures. Communities. Farms. Stores. Little cities filled with imagination. He built a Home Depot, a local grocery store, several farms…
His autism doesn’t always give him the words to tell us what’s happening inside his mind. But his creations do.
Every block placed is a reminder: his brain is coming back online. Every structure is proof that the brilliance was never gone - it just needed support.
This moment feels simple. Quiet. Ordinary to anyone else. But to me, it feels like a miracle I get to witness with my own eyes.
So deeply grateful. So humbled. And endlessly in awe of the healing power the body holds when we give it what it needs. ✨
