Go to http://groups.yahoo.com

type " aspergers " into the search box - you'll find 119 groups. Go through

the descriptions of the groups and apply to join the ones you like

then type " autism " in - there are 1037. Go through the descriptions of the

groups and apply to join the ones you like....

" autism mercury " - 25 of them.....

Sorry I didn't fully explain. I can only add that it seems these folks,

many of them I can only describe as " fanatical " , seem to believe ABA cures

mercury poisoning.... *My* issue is that they insist it is mercury

poisoning but refuse to call it that, instead " jumping on the autism

bandwagon " . I've been too abused by these folks, I'm on over 100 lists,

*this* is the sane one. I'm not poisoned, was autistic from the day he

was born and Ben, like me, was always different, and

bloomed into a full blown obviously Aspie when he was 9.

I never said that anyone deserves no respect. How you made it this far

without falling over the vaccine/autism thing I'll never know. I said, " f

you want to cure mercury poisoning, fine, go cure mercury poisoning but

leave autism alone. " They are NOT the same thing and should not be called

the same thing. If you want to learn more, I have a page you can start on -

http://www.PlanetAutism.com/merc-vacc.htm . I'm not trying to Ban mercury

info, I was just hoping this list could stay that special place it was,

different from those 1036 other autism lists.

Zer, i did not make myself clear. My household is NOT " torn " by the

conflict. It's just in my household autism and vaccine injury are two

separate issues that have nothing to do with each other:

ASD: AS traits are present in at least three generations on my

maternal side, but they have nothing to do with vaccines or mercury -

along with those traits, my maternal heredity includes giftedness,

excellent physical health and longevity. My grandmother is just like

me - high-strung and hyperlexic; she is 94 and still runs around the

apartment faster than a cockroach. None of us was ever overvaccinated

or chemically poisoned.

Vaccine injury: several years ago, my then 13-y/o and totally NT

daughter was subjected to school-mandated HepB vaccination. Shortly

after that, she developed Crohn's disease - an incurable and

potentially fatal autoimmune disease affecting GI, joints, skin and

other systems. There are no other known cases of Crohn's on either

side of our family. " Standard treatment " by steroids and

immunosuppressants made her condition much worse; then i started

researching, found out about Autism-Mercury forum, vaccine injury and

started treatment by the same protocol used to treat mercury-poisoned

autistic children, under supervision of a physician specializing in

such cases. It helped greatly, and her condition is steadily

improving. (boy, can i understand those parents' wish for " cure " ...)

So, as you can see, in my family we've got vaccine-unrelated autism

and vaccine-related non-autism...which made both my kid and me

ineligible for any practical support of our needs from

mainstream " autism = vaccine injury, vaccine injury = autism "

organizations and legal eagles...

The AS specialist professor, that refused to believe that my childhood

was not that of AS would be quite angry at this contradiction to his

theories.

I for one, know that my childhood was not normal, although I rarely

stood out like a sore thumb but some consultants make some peoples

lives even more difficult.

PS i do remember attempting to play marbles after breaking a

thermometer at school as a teenager. Ahh mystery solved <g>
