Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 I was just about to ask some of these questions! Very curious. Autism without vaccines-Questions for Anita Anita, What are some possible reason that some kids are autistic and no vaxxes were given? What do you think the reason is for your child? Are those autistic kids that are not autistic due to vaccines different in behavour patterns? Is there autism different from other cases? If so, how?

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 I can't speak for others April, but I believe traumatic events immediately following the letdown of my breastmilk were too much for him. To keep it brief, he coughed when the milk came on his third day of life (we were still in hospital because of a c-section) and an overzealous nurse was present and took away without really giving me enough time to calm him down. Next thing I knew he was on his way to Stony Brook University Hospital and mainlined with two types of powerful antibiotics. He was seperated from me rightt after his first taste of mothers milk for nothing more than fear of aspiration and then given precautionary drugs just in case. He may have been genetically fragile, either way, this was too much for him and he experienced very early onset autism.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Autism is individual to each child with so many variables, so it would be impossible, I think, to tell the difference between vaxed vs unvaxed autistic children. My boy is classically autistic in that he has no language (never did), is quite bright but can't fully process information so he doesn't always appear to be, is extremely rigid in his routine, is uncontrollably repetitive, and is incapable of playing appropriately or with other children. He does have good relationships with us and I am very grateful for that. He has showed remarkable receptive growth since he started his homeopathic remedy back in December. I believe this is because information is now beginning to process where it has always gotten stuck inside. Because of apraxia, I don't think language is going to ever be easy for him if it comes at all, but with the right remedy, anything is possible.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Anita, how awful for both of you. I personally have come to believe that early use of antibiotics plays a major role. I believe it did in my son's case. He was on amoxicillin from an hour after birth to age six months. It was supposed to be an important preventive measure because of a kidney defect he was born with. The logic was that he was extremely vulnerable to an infection because one kidney could not drain, and that any infection would finish off the fragile kidney and would be very dangerous to him in general, so he was on it until after his kidney surgery and follow-up tests were complete. I didn't know anything then about how antibiotics can mess up the digestive and immune systems. That damage can start the ball rolling for leaky gut, chronic bowel problems, multiple food sensitivities, chronic infections, malabsorption of nutrients, nutritional deficiencies...all underlying components of autistic spectrum problems. Since learning all this, so many times I've wished I could turn back time and refuse them.

Children who are autistic with no vaccines all have it from birth, basically - NEVER have I seen a case of regression after 1 year of age, or after some period of a normal infancy etc, that we see with other children who are vaccinated. I know of NO cases that have regressed into autism after a normal infancy with no vaccines. ( Infants who are vaccinated can regress at any point in time after any vaccine.) Any of the following (not all but any or all) 2. Antibiotic use during pregnancy, delivery & post natal (either given to the infant or given to the breastfeeding mom) 3. Other drugs used during pregnancy - legal and illegal - primarily legal 4. Drugs used at delivery especially pitocin 5. Rhogam given in some cases to RHneg moms during pregnancy - which is inexcusable - see my webpages on this http://www.nccn.net/~wwithin/rhogam.htm These are the keys I think for those that have autism and have not been vaccinated. Also there are some that HAVE in fact been given hep b vax in the nursery against parents wishes, or without their knowledge...............and sometimes parent doesn't realize until checks the hospital records. Or an over zealous nurse gives and doesn't record.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2006 Report Share Posted March 26, 2006 Could you tell with him as an infant that he was autistic? Just curious, I just think it would be so hard to tell with them that little! And by language do you just mean words and sentences type thing, or as a baby he never did the " mama " " dada " , etc type stuff? If its too much for you to answer these I totally understand, I'm just trying to learn more about it!

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 I don't mind sharing . If it helps one person, it's worth it. In retrospect, his autism is much clearer. At the time, we just figured he'd been through so much for a little guy and was shy and mistrusting. He was the most silent baby with some bah's at several months that were fleeting and back to silence for the next 3+ years. We knew something was wrong when we realised he NEVER responded to his own name and couldn't be distracted from his little world. After his 1st Birthday came and went and Henry was still indifferent, we knew we had to get him evaluated and he began receiving services at the beginning of his 17th month. Now he babbles, mostly rythcally to musical words or music. He can say yes when I prompt him, but only in a whisper. He can fill in words to songs like Old Mac and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, but they are fragments of words and very hard for him to motor plan the response. What's more important than expressive language, to me, is receptive language which shows us he understands what is being said to him and is beginning to respond to simple requests other than the few tricks drilled into him by his school through what they call 'trials'. Couldn't think of better word for what he endures each day to do what comes so naturally to most other children. I feel the homeopathic remedy he takes each day has aided greatly in the remarkable receptive growth he has shown these past few months. Every teacher at his school has commented on how his eye's are different in that his looks are less gazing and more meaningful and have intent. As a result, his teachers can set higher academic goals and achieve more successes...and they are. :~) Anita Could you tell with him as an infant that he was autistic?

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 I was required to have his hearing tested before a speech pathologist and psychologist could evaluate him for diagnosis. His ability to hear is normal, but his ability to process what he hears is not.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 Does he have a CAPD (Central Auditory Processing Disorder) diagnosis? I asked because my son has some auditory processing issues and some auditory hypersensitivities. And I am on a very busy group for auditory processing disorder. There has been mention of kids with CAPD (central auditory processing disorder) " looking like " kids with autism and being misdiagnosed as same. Also there have been parents report that their child was inappropriately treated for / misdiagnosed as ADHD when in fact they later found out the child had CAPD. That said, there are kids who apparently have both CAPD and autism, or both CAPD and ADHD. Of course CAPD can affect speech/language. There are quite a few therapies for CAPD- one that is supposedly scientifically proven to help -- called Fast ForWord. Some (but not all) parents are reporting amazing results. It is expensive, but when we can afford it we will probably try it.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 He was never diagnosed with CAPD. He does have difficulty processing certain tones and pitches which his OT addresses with listening therapy. I also managed to get him an individual music therapist 1x a week for 30 minutes in addition to daily group music class where he has an opportunity to integrate with neurotypical children. I'll ask his school about the therapy you mentioned and thanks. Music is one of the more enjoyable activities in his life and has helped him grow in numerous ways.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 Just to clarify- Fast ForWord is not music based (I don't think). Because it is expensive and intensive, many schools do not offer it. Our local school here does not offer it. Many parents are paying for it themselves. And it is only offered through certified providers (mostly audiologists and speech language pathologists I believe).

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 It may not be music based, but it must be some kind of listening therapy. Wouldn't you agree?

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 As I understand it-- it is actually computer software which of course involves listening and interacting with/responding to the program. It is supposed to actually change/improve the part of the brain responsible for auditory processing (or that is the claim anyway). And there are professionals reporting huge gains (language, listening, processing, reading) in kids.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 Have you read " Dancing in the Rain " ? Each chapter is named after a child with auditory processing challenges. It's facinating how some of them can hear EVERYTHING including what's going on in the neighbors house or down the street. Poor kids can't seperate all the noise. Must be so chaotic and cause all kinds of problems including behavioral which they are always judged for.
