12/19 Parents’ Ultimate Test: Dealing with Autism

Quote From: yoyoqn

Autism is caused by a series of DNA strands.  It is not contagious, it is not caused by MERCURY in VACCINATIONS.

 

It's in the DNA people.

 

I am autistic, my brother may well be autistic, my niece is autistic, my two daughters are autistic.

 

Autism runs in my family.

 

But that's not what people want to hear.

 

Instead we have crack pots touting that if we remove all of the mercury out of the system, there's no more autism.  These crack pots say it's a cure.

 

It's not a CURE people, it's a deatth sentence.  This 'treatment' as well as it's 'results' were shown on both TV, and in several news magazines as what it is ....... a death sentence to children. So, don't do this to your child. It didn't work for the little children who died, and it will not work for your child either.

 

The only thing that works is early intervention (depending on the severity of the autism).

 

And yes sometimes drugs such as straterra, and prozac can help.

 

Sometimes even going to a wheat free diet will help.  Although it did not help in my case or that of my children; I've seen it work for other children who's autism was actually more severe than that of my childrens'.

 

But remember people, there is no proof whatsoever that Autism is caused by the vaccinations that prevent so many diseases.  That is simply incorrect.

 I have a beautiful 4 year old little boy who was diagnosed with autism when he was 2 years old.  I am an Occupational Therapy Practitioner (OTA) and noticed signs in him before his "official" diagnosis was made.  I immediately got him Early Intervention.  When it was time to start preschool, he started attending a wonderful school for children with special needs.  While there, he receives speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, and feeding therapy.  I am also pleased to say that I work in that school (although not with him as that would be a conflict of interest), and he is a happy, healthy and energetic boy whom I would not trade for anything in the world.  Sean is my life and has the sweetest disposition you ever would wish to see on a child-except when it's time to go to the doctor!

 

Nancy Fox, OTA
