I received an email from a a good friend, and wanted to share this with you and get your thoughts...I have ommited her name for her privacy, but this is a real email sent to me.
Hello, My name is ^^^^^ *******. I live in Georgia, and my son has autism. He was diagnosed in Sept. '04. I have been relying on biomedics, and supplements to help stablelize my son's conditions. He was diagnosed with PDD-NOS Syndrome. My son was not born with this condition howeve, but was prone to it after a vaccination he received at 18 months MMR Measles, Mumps, Rubella I am sure you are familiar. There was a lot of publicity about it. I have sought out a DAN doctor, and had some tests done on my child whom is now 5 years old. The tests revealed some alarming news. The virus was still active in my son's body from almost three and a half years. Talk about alarming. If I wanted to take legal action am I able to do so? Or do you know where to start my search on this sensitive matter? I have heard there is a grace period to file suit. Do you know if this is true? I have not spoken to an attorney about this, but feel that I do have enough evidence to file. I have been living with the results for a year now, and it is killing me. There has got to be something that I can do. For my child ,and his future therapies, and medications in our future. If you have any advice for me, please don't hesitate to contact me. Any information would be ideal, as I am handling this on my own with help from family. My son Lance will also be doing a research program at the Marcus Institute for further testing on this. I am so happy he got accepted into the research. He is is also on the GFCF diet, which has been beneficial. He was doing so well on it. I couldn't believe it. But, when I lost my job we had to stop, because the food is so expensive to buy on my income. Is there any way to get government help for this diet which is helping my son tremendously with his condition? My son is receiving SSI benefits, and Medicaid Insurance. But, Medicaid is limiting his therapies, and he needs them. I am just a mother who has a lifelong dream to help my child find himself and unlock his mind.
Merry Christmas,
God Bless

I met so many families with this same story at the ralley in DC last summer. It broke my heart, tacanow.org might be able to offer her some help with cheap ways to be on the diet,they are very helpful. Even though I waited to have vaccines for my 2 youngest and my son still ended up with autism and my daughter with Pdd I met and heard a lot of stories of what families are going through because of vaccines. I met a mother whose daughter did not get autism but she now at fourteen has permanent joint pain necause of a vaccine for cervical cancer.
