My son (who will be 5 in June) has been poisoned thanks to the MMR vaccination. I am 1000% convinced that he wouldn't be autistic now if I had've said NO to it. I wish I had've know about Raw and Living Foods back in 2001. He was given the shot at 18 months. Less than 4 months later, he stopped talking and couldn't walk on his own. He spent A LOT of time in his stroller because he would constantly get hurt...very frustrating.
Maybe I'd still have him (he's been adopted and is now living in Texas with his new family). The stress of taking care of a special needs child was too much for me. He refused stay still. He was extremely hyperactive and was always falling out of his bed or his crib.
I tried to feed him a vegetarian diet, but was accused of starving him (which wasn't the case). Some autistic children have feeding problems. My son (Ezra) was one of them...Would take 2 hours to feed him ANYTHING. He was removed from my care partly because he was very underweight (due to feeding problems). He wouldn't even drink water.
None of those Early Intervention therapists helped at all. They never came on a regular basis and wondered why he wasn't doing well.
The next child I do have will have no meat whatsover...no dairy, no eggs, nothing. I felt that the system failed me and my son. It makes me trust the System less in general.
What purpose do vaccinations serve? Example: the injectable version of the flu vaccine has a deadened version of the virus in it and the nasal spray has the LIVE flu virus in it. And they say it can't make people sick....I don't believe it.
