Amen.

I have an autistic child and the effects of it have been widespread. In the 2 years we have suspected this, I have developed high blood pressure and we have had marital problems. It is a very stressful situation for the whole family and I am so sick of the comments of those who know nothing about the devastating affects of this.

As a Mom of a child with epilepsy (JME), I have deep sympathy for your heartfelt anguish.
However, the other side of this shot/noshot debate must also be addressed.
Eight children have now died in Colorado since the season began just last month.
It makes for a tough call, and no on should take vaccines lightly.
My young asthmatic daughter got a flu shot.
I played the odds.
The odds af her dying from the flu far outweighed the chance of her being damaged by the vaccine.
Am I 100% sure it was the right thing?
No, but I played the best odds I could after looking at the latest information.

Mercury seems to be related to Autism. This is a given. There have been recent studies that show children with Autism have problems with the retention of this metal, whereas normal children can excrete it. More recent studies have shown success with reversing Autism after mercury chelation, especially if the child is young when the Autism is discovered.

Joe Boernstein was going forward with a class action suit against the vaccine makers before our current president outlawed such torts.

I guess he figured he had a pretty good case.

Seek support from other Autism families. You are not alone.
