Guest guest Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 The mercury and / or thimerosal may not even be creating additional problems for infants. If the child has compromised immune- the live virus may put immune further compromised! ALL THE INFANTS BORN TODAY should have their immune panels checked. Many of us parents vaccinated per FDA regulations, I recently come across a family who never vaccinated their 14 year old son and his autism is quite severe. And what about twins born, same shots, one fine and one NOT !!!! There still seems to be unanswered questions at this time. May this be the year our children are finally helped and respected amongst society: physically, emotionally and spiritually. God Bless Us All !!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Hidden Truth About Autism: My daughter, Lindsey, and her challenging journey with the label “Autisticâ€. Today we are faced with a serious epidemic that is affecting millions of people worldwide. And by the way things are negatively progressing it is turning into billions worldwide. Our medical society has not been recognizing this as a true epidemic; therefore we lose a generation of children every 7 to 10 years. Roughly, this has been occurring since 1989. And sadly since an epidemic is treatable and curable, we are turning our backs on these children diagnosed with Autism, some of which are now Adults. God did not intend for these individuals diagnosed with Autism to lead the non-productive lives that are currently being forced upon them. The isolation in society many families face daily, most public and private school’s treatment of these children, and the labeling of “damaged goods†must be stopped. What is being allowed is truly horrific, beyond imaginable in this day and age with all the sophisticated technological breakthroughs that many of us are blessed with. I’d like to introduce to you my daughter Lindsey, born on March 15, 1993. She was such an alert and observant baby. She was delivered naturally with complications only for me, which I will get into later on. The unfortunate occurrence was the fact that 2 immunizations were given to her at birth. In 1993, the hepatitis condition had worsened and therefore it was mandatory that every new infant be given the shots at birth, regardless of their residence. Knowing what I do today, I would have awakened from my temporary unconsciousness and demand that no one be allowed to go ten feet in her space, but that is water over the bridge. Quite frankly, as we met our vaccinations schedule according to FDA standards I had no idea of how much further damage was being done to my precious little girl. I had no idea that her immune system was so compromised. Or that her circulatory system was poor, particularly in the temporal and frontal lobes of her brain. I suspected her digestive issues, but when I took her every several weeks for her well exams I was told there were no such problems. Actually, Lindsey didn’t receive the PDD/NOS (Pervasive Developmental Disorder/ Not Otherwise Specified) until she was 3 1/2 . And I still didn’t put autism together with that complicated, encyclopedia-driven evaluation conducted by a neurologist at Columbia Hospital in NYC, until a friend of mine read it and had some knowledge of autism. I mean these people didn’t even do a simple iron test. What were they thinking? I'll tell you what they were thinking, this kid is autistic so there is absolutely nothing we can do for her, next. By the time I learned of the (Neuro-Immune Dysfunctional Syndrome)protocol and took her to see Dr. Goldberg, the first surprise was the results of her iron. Lindsey's iron level came in at an 8, when it was finally checked by a physician who didn't deny the increase in these children diagnosed " autistic " . That was likely one of the lowest iron scores in history. A mother knows when there is a problem with her child, regardless of who denies or ignores the concerns. Mothers just know! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Much more follows, but that is the very beginning of my story and many more like us. If anyone wants to share their story and / or be a part of this publication that I plan to get out to the public, come forward as quickly as possible. I also plan to write a novel, a biography on Lindsey from birth to present which will involve everything from: doctors refusing to prescribe antibiotics when necessary, psychiatrists advice on institutionalization, physical and mental abuse from 1999-2000 (ex: locks in closets, broken nose), denial of her condition from closest relatives, courtroom battles, board of ed battles, my health limiting my ability to share with the public all that needs to be said, and finally our triumphs. There is much to say and this post is probably long enough. Thanks for reading and if anyone has any literary connections --- let's talk. I am also a businesswoman. Ha! Ha! Happy New Year - 2008!!! Let this be the year our children are blessed !!!! " Ms. Michele " **************Start the year off right. Easy ways to stay in shape. http://body.aol.com/fitness/winter-exercise?NCID=aolcmp00300000002489 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Greetings and salutations! My name is Allyson and I am one of the mothers (long story which I don't mind sharing but might shock some people) of a 17 year old boy with Asperger's Syndrome. While D isn't my biological son, I love him very much. I've been a daily and active part of his life for the past 5.5 years, and I've watched him go from being stuck in a " life skills " school (his bio mother refuses to believe he can do anything and treats him like a three year old) with no friends and no hobbies, to being a mostly-normal 17 year old kid with a small handful of friends and an active interest in biology and drama. Gray, D's father, is my life-partner, and we've been together for 5.5 years. When we first got together, D was living with his other bio mother, and was going to a life skills school where they were teaching him to read board books and basic hygeine. When he was with us, however, he was reading Lord of the Rings and doing such things as baking cakes and other things requiring the following of complex instructions. After a massive fight, Gray got custody (of both kids... he has a 'normal' 19 year old daughter), and we mainstreamed D into the public school system. He went from failing at his life skills classes, to passing with Bs and As in a barely modified middle school curriculum (he had some help with language arts because he'd never actually been TAUGHT most of the reading and writing skills, and he has some problems distinguishing between masculine and feminine in writing and speaking). Now he's in his third year of high school and we're very proud of him. He's disgustingly like a regular teenager at this point. He tries to get out of homework as often as any other kid. He's failing a couple of classes, both for lack of handing in work, and we're riding him a bit, but determined to love him to death and let him fail if that's what it takes. He's pretty responsible for a 17 year old, and extremely thoughtful for an Aspie (he's aware of others emotions even if he doesn't show much himself). He does have some rather Aspie traits: he " voice acts " out loud, to himself, frequently, and sometimes has to be reminded that such things need to be done in appropriate places (his room, and other places where people know him well enough not to be offended or frightened). He has a fascination with Transformers and Bionicals, these little robot thingies, which are technically for younger kids. We've been pushing the " age appropriateness " of things lately, but have also showed him that his dad has a collection of toy motorcycles, and I have collections of comics, both of which are " age inappropriate " for us, but which we save for special times. This lets him have his special toys, but gives him a way to explain it to " normal " kids so he doesn't run into social teasing. Though I suppose we don't have much to worry about. D is in a GREAT school here in land, and the kids there seem to really like him. He only has two real friends, but almost all the kids at school know who he is, and treat him fairly and as a friend. He's known for his smarts in math, and his joy in drama (which he loves to pieces even if he isn't great at it). Anyhow, that's my introduction. I have questions and such, for later, but I wanted to say hi. I'm more than willing to answer questions - just beware, I'm one of those who will answer pretty much anything, so don't ask if you don't REALLY want the answer.
