A DIFFERENT KIND OF THERAPY

I've been participating in the IAN (Interactive Autism Network) project and answering questions about each of our kids. It asks about all of the therapies, treatments, interventions, etc. that you do and whether or not you see any progress and/or success. I find it interesting that they consider "prayer" an intervention or treatment. 'Prayer' is its own listing (see below):

Treatment Name

Coenzyme Q10 ( CoQ10, CoQ, Q10, Ubiquinone)
DHA
Diflucan
Essential fatty acids
Lamictal
Magnesium Citrate
Occupational Therapy
Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS)
Prayer
Speech and Language Therapy
Vitamin B9 (Folic Acid or folate)
Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid)
GFCF diet
Potassium
vitamin B 12 injections
Physical therapy
Magnesium
Zinc

I guess prayer could be considered an intervention, treatment or therapy. I just never thought of it that way before.

The Oxford Dictionary says prayer is "a solemn request or thanksgiving to God".
And here it is Thanksgiving time. We have a lot to be thankful for.
