While I have not been affected by the disease, I am so alarmed by the rise in it since the early 90s that I haven't done any vaccinations on Nicholas since he turned 1. There seems to be some proof that certain children are more susceptible. I would like to see a blood test available to parents before they begin to vaccinate their babies. Did you know that when our parents were kids they didn't get their vaccinations until kindergarten and there were only 3 or 4 of them? Am I being paranoid in my statement when I say that drug companies are controlling our healthcare system?Margaret Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07684998674524051003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18214825.post-25053579592554340232008-04-03T21:48:00.000-05:002008-04-03T21:48:00.000-05:00Happy Thursday.

We also still vaccinate our kids, but luckily we have a very supportive pediatrician who does not combine as many vaccines in one shot. <BR/><BR/>What an amazing story about the girl. So sad that her parents used her to voice their concerns. I am infatuated with Jenny McCarthy's story. I read all of her CNN editorials and information that CNN has posted this week. And I tivoed the Oprah that she was on when discussing autism. I have not had a chance to read her book yet, but it is on my summer reading list. Have you checked out the website she supports? generationrescue.org It is really interesting. <BR/><BR/>I have taught so many students with autism that it really piques my interest. I often wonder if many of my students were ever taught by you. Even though you were in a different feeder pattern, there are always kids that we get that have transferred.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again for some great reading!Jennifer H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14688982388629378972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18214825.post-30110074525301078032008-04-02T23:52:00.000-05:002008-04-02T23:52:00.000-05:00There are a couple of states that have begun setti...There are a couple of states that have begun setting forth legislation to have medical insurance cover behavioral therapy within autism cases.Jennifer Schroederhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11358108326136729129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18214825.post-65275718521463360202008-04-02T19:42:00.000-05:002008-04-02T19:42:00.000-05:00Hey... thanks so much for the post.
