![]() There she was wanting so badly (from what I've read on the the boards) to be in charge, have some authority, be looked up to, be better than others. She gets a position that should have lead to a good deal of that but turned out to be merely a low paying cleaning job for a con artist who's whistling while she flushes TT's rep and credibility right down the toilet. Kind of poetic, don't you think? ![]() Quote:

That is exactly how I saw it. The text was running off the right side of the screen, and you couldn't read it all without scrolling over.

Mods, please indulge me and I promise to stay on topic forever! heh. My son was born and was perfectly normal. Started babbling almost from the get go. He was engaging, he'd stare into your eyes and babble so animatedly, that we called it his "Storytelling". He was saying a good number of words by his first birthday and had met or exceeded all of the normal milestones for his age group. Then at his 1 year check up he got the "big" shots. That night he started a fever and was acting lethargic and very quiet. I called the Dr. and they said "oh its a reaction, give him some tylenol and he'll be ok in a few days", so, I did. Few days later, he's still sitting on the floor staring at the TV, almost unresponsive to anything. Didn't want to eat, didn't talk, didn't say Mamma or baba or anything.. not one word for days. I took him to the ER, because his ped thought it was just "a reaction from the vaccines". The ER ped did a few tests and tried talking to him and asked me how long he'd been autistic. It was two years to the day after that visit to the ER that he finally said "I love you Momma". (He was three years and 6 days old). He has incredibly high levels of mercury in his brain. His body could not process the thimerasol in the vaccines, the MMR being the worst for thimerasol content. (modern mercury derivative - just a preservative, not even a necessary part of the vaccine). They have considered chelation therapy, which could do far more harm than good. 20 years ago, 1 in 20,000 children developed Autism. Now, 1 in 150. What's changed? Oh yeah, thimerasol. There are PLENTY of medical studies that show the connection to mercury and autism - though most of them are from other countries. The few studies done here were funded by the CDC and pharm companies themselves, so their bias is too strong. I've been working with a doctor in Germany who has completed a 3 year study confirming the connection and is currently trying to get a visa to the US to lecture about the dangers of this preservative. I am part of several class action lawsuits against the pharmaceutical companies - not that I ever expect to get anywhere, but I want to be involved. Now, that all said, not all children develop autism only from mercury poisoning and vaccinations. Some genetic combinations make children more predisposed to the danger and some children develop forms of Autism that are not mercury related at all. It kills me sometimes to think that I did this to him. I trusted the doctor and got those vaccines, because that's what GOOD parents do, right? If I had said no.. he'd be "fine" or "normal". The bottom line is that it IS my fault because I didn't do any research on these drugs before I allowed my child to be pumped full of them. I had no idea. (But I should have known.. the father of my son had 2 children from a previous marriage.. one of them was Autistic as well.. I knew about it.. should have read about it.) I know how guilty I will feel for the rest of my life.. and woe to the pharmaceutical salesman that crosses my path one day. 1 in 150 kids will develop Autism. A large percentage of those children will develop Autism simply from the *preservative* used by the pharm companies to increase the shelf life of the vaccines they create. It doesn't need to be in there, but it increases their profit margin. Yeah, Kimmer makes me sick, but some things make me sicker. Vent over.. thanks for letting me share that.. its hard to talk about and who knows, maybe someone will read it and not have to feel what I feel now. |

Morgan I am so sorry for your child my nephew is autistic as well and he is 4 but he cannot speak so I feel for you. God Bless but yes if this is something being hidden by the govt and pharmeceutical companies that is a million times worse than Kimkins. At least we all can switch diets . Thanks for venting Tina

Remember -- flu shots are a tool to protect us from the flu. Not the 2 or 3 or 5 day fever, body aches, throwing up where we miss a week of work. It's influenza that we're worried about - the one that kills people.
I get the flu shot since 1) the less I get the flu over my lifetime, the longer I'll probably live, and 2) my very elderly parents would NOT EVER survive influenza at this stage of their lives and I will do everything in my power to make their exposure as little as possible. Yes, they get the shot, too.

![]() Morgan, I'm sorry you had to go through that. You did what you thought was best at the time. Reading Taubes book, which explains that public health decisions are often made against the evidence, I'm glad that we can choose our vaccines. Last edited by Chelveston : 10-30-2007 at 08:39 PM. |

I wish you didn't see it as your fault. We can't know everything. We can't research everything. It isn't until we get some bit of information or suspect there's a need to look deeper that we do. I can remember after my 3rd child was born (firsts born were my twin boys) that I saw a report on tv about possible dangers with the DTP vaccine. It really had to do with lot numbers and the pertussis part of the shot. I wrote those lot numbers down and carried them in my purse. I was so afraid for my twins having already had them and scared because my 3rd son had already had one and was in line to get more. Home computers weren't in the picture back then so I read what I could and said no to the pertussis part of the vaccine and requested the others be split into half doses, spread apart. I had to have a reason for that (if I had a choice to simply refuse I was not aware of it). My husband's family is prone to convulsions and that was the reason I used. That's about the scope of info that was out then. I did the same with my daughter that came next. Now there's so much information available and computers in homes to search even more. With all I've read online I'm now even concerned about vaccinating my pets. Years ago there was no concern for pets being harmed by vaccinations by anyone I knew and I certainly wasn't concerned about it. I think that the majority of parents would change a good deal of the choices they've made in the past because of the information they now have. I know I would. As parents we do the best that we can do with what we know at the time. ![]() ![]() I really didn't want to let this post go by without commenting because I really feel for you and I hope I haven't offended you in anyway by anything I've said. I'm just so sorry for what you're all going through. |

I'm just one of those "what if and if only" people and I have a hard time letting some things go, yanno? (Like.. Kimmer for instance, lol).But I do try to use the emotions to my advantage, turning into outrage and then into action. Advocacy, lots of hard work with my son, even a trip to DC to meet with some Congressman last year about it. Being productive keeps me ahead of the depression curve, I suppose, heh. Thank you for your post.. ![]() |

I'm so sorry about what happened to your son! I don't have children, so I've never done much research on it, but had heard about the link between autism and immunizations. I hope you get somewhere with the class action suits - at least to force the pharmaceutical companies to take that ingredient out of the shots. I don't know why they are allowed to make dangerous vaccines. ![]() Although I don't have children, I do have two cats and because they stay indoors and are not exposed to other animals, I do not immunize them. I just don't think they need it, and so far I haven't had any vets push me back on the issue. |
