[SPAM]Re: Re: Crossing the midline---Please help---Janice

[Guest guest]

This is so true. I firmly believe due to the nursery water and

anesthesia fluorine remains the culprit in my son's case. My dad, age

69, is so much like my boy. They look alike and for a good long time

I thought genetics was more at play with my boy based on that. It

could be but I think it is the mutagenic effect of fluorine. My dad

was raised in a heavily fluoridated area and his whole family reads

like the studies I have read. More relevant though is this Christmas.

My dad never crossed the midline, is legally blind in one eye,

uncoordinated and I now firmly believe dyslexic. He saw my son with

his glasses at Christmas and said, " I had glasses at age 2 also, lazy

eye. " This was news to me since he never wore the glasses til age 40.

You know what else happened at age 2 for my dad? He stuck his hand in

a ringwer washer and nearly pulled his arm off. 32 skin grafting

surgeries later and I can only imagine how much fluorine via

anesthesia, here he stands today. Obviously my son had more exposure

earlier and in utero but I assure you I am on this. He will cross

the midline, I will find the rest of the allergens, address the

genetics best I can and go to nacd. He will be well. I won't have it

any other way.
