Vaccines

[Guest guest]

Ok. I'm new to this message board, so please excuse me if this subject

has already been hashed out. I've heard little snippets here and

there about vaccines possibly causing apraxia and other neurological

disorders. I've read a few articles, but I'm really more interested in

real peoples experiences. While we don't have an official diagnosis,

it looks as though my 20 month old has verbal apraxia. At 12 months

she was saying a few words, but lost that ability shortly thereafter.

We were pretty anti vaccine, but were forced into it later, so she

didnt' have her first round of vaccines until 9 months. She had her

second round at around 12 months. While we can't pinpoint it, we know

that her word usage dropped off sometime between 13 and 15 months. I

was just wondering - how many of you attribute your childs apraxia to

vaccines? Also, and maybe this is false hope, have any of you heard

of a traumatic event causing voluntary muteness? My daughter was

really sick and hospitalized, and then a week later diagnosed with a

kidney disease that involved alot of invasive tests for weeks on end.

This is also about when she quit talking.

Thanks a bunch!
