Re: Born Autistic or Born Poisined? That is the question?

August 29, 2000

Kathy,

I think you have hit the nail on the head!! I spoke recently to

Bernie Rimland. The conversation (of course) eventually turned to

mercury. He asked me if I thought all autistic children with no

identifiable syndromes were all mercury-poisoned. I told him that

I really didn't want to sound like a major loon, but I thought they

were, at least based on my testing of about 200 autistic children

so far. There was a long silence on the other end, and then he

said that he had reviewed a lot of the data himself, and had come to

exactly the same conclusion.

It appears that there is no difference in children " born " autistic

and those who were developing normally and then had a regression.

The only real difference may be the timing of the poisoning and

maybe some individual susceptibility.

I can tell you what I did to my son:

1. had 21 amalgam fillings in my mouth while I was pregnant

2. ate tuna at least 3 times a week while pregnant

3. use thimerosal-containing contact lens solution while pregnant.

4. he got all vaccines " on time " , all the ones that could have

possibly contained mercury did contain it.

If your thinking is that a child is born autistic, consider this. I

believe

they are born poisined! There is an entierely new mindset in my mind

that

those moms who say their kids are born that way, probably were, but

lets

make this more sysinct, they weren't born autistic as much as they

were born

poisned in the womb. If you don't believe me, read these below, Just

my

opinion and my two cents (this also is not including other toxological

insults such as dioxin, flouride, pesticides, endocrine disuruptions

and

other carcinogens). For other late arriving autisms, I point to

vaccines as

source or contributor. There are many abstracts on this, please think

about

this connection? For those who say, well Uncle so and so was

aspergers, and

another aunt has mild autism, I would venture their detox pathways for

mercury detoxification ALSO aren't working. Susceptibility of

mercury

toxication can be had generationally or perhaps again, they are

Virally and

Toxically loaded, and who can withstand that?

ADP-Ribosylation of Brain Neuronal Proteins Is Altered by In Vitro and

In

Vivo Exposure to Inorganic Mercury

Journal of Neurochemistry. 62(5):2049-2052, 1994 May

Abstract ADP-ribosylation is an essential process in the metabolism of

brain

neuronal proteins, including the regulation of assembly and

disassembly of

biological polymers. Here, we examine the effect of HgCl2 exposure on

the

ADP-ribosylation of tubulin and actin, both cytoskeletal proteins also

found

in neurons, and B-50/43-kDa growth-associated protein (B-50/GAP-43), a

neuronal tissue-specific phosphoprotein. In rats we demonstrate, with

both

in vitro and in vivo experiments, that HgCl2 markedly inhibits the

ADP-ribosylation of tubulin and actin. This is direct quantitative

evidence

that HgCl2, a toxic xenobiotic, alters specific neurochemical

reactions

involved in maintaining brain neuron structure. [References: 15]

The effect of mercury vapour on cholinergic neurons in the fetal

brain:

studies on the expression of nerve growth factor and its low- and

high-affinity receptors.

Developmental Brain Research 85(1):96-108 (1995)

ABSTRACT: " The effects of mercury vapour on the production of nerve

growth

factor during development have been examined. Pregnant rats were

exposed to

two different concentrations of mercury vapour during either embryonic

days

E6-E11 (early) or E13-E18 (late) in pregnancy, increasing the

postnatal

concentration of mercury in the brain from 1 ng/g tissue to 4 ng/g

tissue

(low-dose group) or 11 ng/g (high-dose group). The effect of this

exposure

in offspring was determined by looking at the NGF concentration at

postnatal

days 21 and 60 and comparing these levels to age-matched controls from

sham-treated mothers. Changes in the expression of mRNA encoding NGF,

the

low- and hogh-affinity receptors for NGF (p75 and p140 trk,

respectively)

and choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) were also determined. When rats

were

exposed to high levels of mercury vapour during early embryonic

development

there was a significant (62%) increase in hippocampal NGF levels at

P21

accompanied by a 50% decrease of NGF in the basal forebrain. The

expression

of NGF mRNA was found to be unaltered in the dentate gyrus. The

expression

of p75 mRNA was significantly decreased to 39% of control levels in

the

diagonal band of Broca (DB) and to 50% in the medial septal nucleus

(MS)

whereas no alterations in the level of trk mRNA expression were

detectable

in the basal forebrain. ChAT mRNA was slightly decreased in the DB and

MS,

significantly in the striatum. These findings suggest that low levels

of

prenatal mercury vapour exposure can alter the levels of NGF and its

receptors, indicating neuronal damage and distributed trophic

regulations

during development. "

This research shows that mercury from a woman’s amalgam fillings

crosses the

placental barrier and travels into the brain of the unborn child.

According

to Professor Drasch, “ Well, I think the implications are serious. It

is a

question of whether or not we have to restrict the application of

dental

amalgam to women, not only in child bearing age, but before. If for

instance, a girl of 15 gets an amalgam filling, this filling lies in

her

mouth for 10 years. All this time this filling releases mercury. If

this

girl got pregnant when she has the filling, the mercury passes to the

brain

of the child. It’s really the question that is being discussed in

Germany

right now, to speak about restriction of amalgam fillings for women

from,

let me say, 15 to 50 years.” Learning disabilities also seem to be

characterized by a general pattern of high levels of mercury in the

body.

The study also showed a directly proportional relationship between the

number of amalgam fillings and the amount of mercury deposited in the

cortex. Considering that mercury has a half-time of some 20 years in

areas

of the brain, there a lot of people in serious trouble. Dr. Friberg

was

quoted as saying, “There are no permissible limits on this. It is

known that

mercury is one of the most poisonous substances that exist.” In other

words,

there is no scientific evidence anywhere which proves that the level

of

mercury found in the human brain is safe or that no damage occurs

because of

it.[ Friberg L., Kullman L.,Birger L., Nylander M., “Mercury in the

central

nervous system in relation to amalgam fillings” Lakartidningen Vol.83,

Issue

7:519-521,1986.]

I also had amalgam fillings while pregnant.

I ate tuna on a daily basis not to mention Walleye from Lake Erie.

Used thimerosal contact lens solution until I realized that was wht was

causing my eyes to burn.

I had a flu shot while pregnant.

prior to prgenancy I recived a number of immunizations because I was a nurse

and worked in the home health field.

I used chemicals to clean my house which I have since learned Is should have

avoided!

My son then received , within hours of his birth, a hep b vaccine and

continued to give him the " recommended vaccines on schedule "

afetr each immunization he would scream for weeks.

I didn't put it together until his DPT booster which caused him to regress

and then I learned it contained thimerosal.

I once thought my son was " born " autistic, NOW I truely beleive he is a

mercury/vaccine injured child.

Wow Amy,

I am honored you think along the same lines as I I really believe, and

can add to that list my personal malathion nuking as a child and while

pregnant as also a source and I just found out where I lived back then there

was a mercury mine up in the hills in Alameda California. I also have a

mouthful, had vaccines on time, one before our marriage, and my husband went

oversees many times with flu shots and the whole lot of them. To be

sysinct, we were SUNK from the get go. I faxed your protocol to my neuro

and he is highly interested in treating my kids with your protocol.

Although he will have to forward me off to a specialist who is an

environmental physician. Is this the BEST person to see, or do they have a

mindsetl already of what works? To reinterate, my kids fit ALL the tables,

absolutely ALL of them are problems for them, scarry heh? I am also

interested in our discussion today of the alleles, for both my kids have the

c4b nulle allele, and my husband and I have half an allele on c4b.

Ok, so I'm ready and willing to be converted, and also share

a " mercury-rich " history -- lots of fillings, lots of

vaccinations myself -- but only one of my 3 children is autistic, and

this remains my big question: WHY ONLY ONE??? All my kids

were born at home, in completely uncomplicated, unmedicated births.

All of them had good birth weights. We lived in the same place when

kid #1 and kid #2 (one NT and one autistic) were born. I'm just

really pounding my brain to know, if this is indeed mercury poisoning,

WHY only some kids of a certain set of parents are affected, when the

mercury-history, if you will, is almost identical. I did vaccinate

the autistic kid more than the others, but not much more... is that the

only thing that makes the difference? The autistic one is a boy and

the others are girls. Is this the only thing that tips the

balance? Either of these possibilities seems hard to believe.

I'm sure I'm not the only parent looking at multiple children and

wondering why the one who got the 'bullet' was the only one

affected...?

Btw, my husband had all his mercury fillings replaced with white ones

years ago, a couple years before we had kids. As far as I know, his

dentist didn't take any special precautions in doing this. Does

anyone know how this would have affected my hubbie's mercury levels and

for how long? He feels like it improved his health significantly to

have them removed, by the way. He did this long before it was

popular to, because he's a physicist, and the minute he heard that there

was mercury in fillings, he knew from all his science background this

wasn't a good thing to have in your body.

Wow Amy,

I am honored you think along the same lines as I I really

believe, and

can add to that list my personal malathion nuking as a child and

while

pregnant as also a source and I just found out where I lived back then

there

was a mercury mine up in the hills in Alameda California. I also

have a

mouthful, had vaccines on time, one before our marriage, and my husband

went

oversees many times with flu shots and the whole lot of them. To

be

sysinct, we were SUNK from the get go. I faxed your protocol to my

neuro

and he is highly interested in treating my kids with your protocol.

Although he will have to forward me off to a specialist who is an

environmental physician. Is this the BEST person to see, or do they

have a

mindsetl already of what works? To reinterate, my kids fit ALL the

tables,

absolutely ALL of them are problems for them, scarry heh? I am

also

interested in our discussion today of the alleles, for both my kids have

the

c4b nulle allele, and my husband and I have half an allele on c4b.

So if major people in the autism world are convinced, why can we not get

some kind of recourse?? Aren't there enough of us out here worldwide to

start a class action suit or some kind of major media blitz? Don't people

have enough connections? I cannot for the life of me figure out why we've

had two major articles (Newsweek and Redbook) and neither one has mentioned

the mercury issue! It makes me want to scream to think about another kid

going into the clinic and being injected with mercury! Should we stand

outside the vaccine company headquarters holding signs and tie ourselves to

the flagpoles too?

My husband and I feel we should chelate all our kids (4), but there's no way

we can afford that. Shouldn't every child that was given a vaccine

containing thimeresol have at least the opportunity to be chelated? What

's the difference between spending money on LD teachers, therapy etc. or

spending money on chelating? One way is just coping, the other, perhaps a

partial cure, if not total. Let's do what makes economic and humanitarian

sense here! They recall tires that may be faulty--why not vaccines?

I told my husband about a month ago that it wouldn't be long before people

started looking into a class action law suit on this topic.

I am very interested in this subject of a class action law suit. Before

having my daughter, I was a paralegal for 12 years, so the law is " my thing "

if you know what I mean ). I am especially interested in it now, as in

the past I always thought by daughter's autism was something she was born

with and that thimerosol just exacerbated it. However, now that I've

learned that she probably got a vaccine in the hospital before we went home,

I AM FURIOUS!!! I did not know this. Our daughter didn't have a sudden

regression, and in looking back has always exhibited " classic " autistic

behavior.

I'm too angry to speak about this right now. But, seeking recourse is not

out of the question.
