Guest guest Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Hi , I do tend to get a little carried away when I'm on a mission...what was I thinking? It was somewhere around 3:00 am and there I was, just typing away. But it was so good to have no interruptions. Anyway, I too, am not totally against vaccinations, but the more I see, the more wary I become. Our school walls are bursting with newly dx's kids. They range from classic Kanner's autism to HFA, Aspergers, Apraxia, ADD/ADHD, dyslexia and OBD. When I got into this field, I remember 2 kids who had autism, and maybe 3 who would fit on the spectrum today...and these were kids who were kicked out of county classes, just because they could do that back then! I'm 55 and I had 8 vaccinations from school age to high school. Now the average high school graduate has had what...around 39??? And they want to add more???? I totally believe that the beautiful little boy in your practice was affected by his flu shot. What makes it worse, is that his poor mom has no clue, and things could possibly get much worse with future injections. That's what happens when you put complete trust in the Medical Profession! Anyway, what I started out to say when I began writing this is yes, I believe that Transfer Factor works much the same way as LDN. It is an immune immodulator and the emergence of language and awareness is a wonderful positive effect. There are a lot of people on different boards that I am on, who use this with great success. I wasn't promoting LDN over TF. Just chiming in with my experience with it. It's wonderful that there are so many good people out there who go above and beyond to research autism from the perspective that it is a physical illness. Recovery from autism itself varies. Some make it all the way through, other just outright feel better and can go on to live comfortable, productive lives. Of course, we don't know how each child will respond when we start out. I also wanted to emphasize the importance of theraputic interventions. Some kids recover from ABA and other therapies alone. For Noah, I give credit to both. I also credit his crazy, hectic, chaotic family life with forcing him to conform to the real world. There, he has no scheduled or programmed activities to alternate to... he's just a regular kid with 2 sisters and a brother, who has to look through the pile of toys on his bed to find his favorite engine...or look under the couch for his new Oswald DVD!!! I love it, as they say " ...the apple doesn't fall far from the tree " . When my dd apologizes for laundry on her couch or dishes piled up in the sink, or for the 5 out of 8 lost shoes, I laugh and tell her " she learned it from me, OK " ????? This really is a unique group. I feel as though I'm writing to my neighbors, rather that to all of the U.S., UK and China, because, quite frankly...I am! BTW, I'm going to try to make it to the picnic on the 11th. -Trish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 6, 2006 Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 Hi Trish, No problem, didn't think you were negating the Transfer Factor. I just returned from a vist to a dr who said he does first try Transfer Factor with kids to see if they respond. If they do he prefers it to LDN as LDN can cause insomnia and most parents find that troublesome to deal with. I agree about the vaccinations, until they can come up with a way to test the kids and see which might have trouble, we will forgo them. Ours got everything, including Varicella and Prevnar, geesh! But no more, ever. And I did let the mom of my little patient know about the connection between the flu shot and problems as she had been complaining about how undiscipinable (not a word) he had been, so she knew, but did not believe. I wish I could come to the picnic, but we go to church both Sunday morning and evening. Have a great time everybody! ----- Original Message ----- From: Trish Sent: Saturday, June 03, 2006 4:57 PM Subject: [ ] To C. et el... I forgot the origional subject!
