My youngest son Danny is autistic. Granted I had a difficult birth and delivery, He was still normal. He was developing normal and he was alert and talking.
After he went and had his 3 month old shots, he seemed to become a blank wall. He stopped saying any words, stopped having eye contact, completely in his own world.
After months of fighting with doctors and being told I was over reacting, my son was diagnosed at age 2 1/2 with autism. So I did everything as a mother I could do find out what is Autism and how he could have become this way.
I discovered 119 cases back then of parents who found the same changes in their children after receiving the MMR vaccination.
Apparently theres a few parents who are suing the company who makes the MMR vaccine and the company claims that the vaccine isnt that cause of autism, that its in the family genes.
I dont F***ing think so. Noone on either side of my family has ever had a learning disabily or any form of autism so that right there is B.S.
All I can do is applaud those families going after that company, and wish I could fight right there along side them, but I have my son who needs me to be strong for him, and his older brother too.
As a parent, and a teacher, I hope this blog has opened a few eyes, and maybe helped someone else out there who's child may be autistic.
Have strength, and be blessed.
