Do you PERSONALLY know anyone with autism? Do you know when it started?

I have a son who just turned 1 this month and is due for his 1 year check-up soon. He's due for 6 vaccines on his next visit including MMR and I am very concerned about hearing all kinds of things about MMR in combination with other vaccines might cause autism. I know there hasn't been any official proof of any link between vaccines/MMR and autism, but we cannot deny that it happened to a lot of children. And I cannot help but be scared for my child. I am still going to vaccinate him, but will not allow the 6 vaccines to be given at the same time. Will ask the doctor to space them out, and will forgo MMR until he's over 2 years. I ask this question so I have an idea of how many out there has witnessed someone, a child who started out normally, but became autistic after receiving the MMR vaccine in combination with other vaccines. I know one, and he is my 2 year old nephew.

I would not give any vaccines if your son has repeated ear or respiratory infections that were treated with antibiotics. If he has been treated then give probiotics to repopulate the intestines before giving any shots. Vaccines and antibiotics don't mix! My son suffers from regressive autism and I saw a definite link. The MMR shot happened to be the last vaccine when the sign of regression began. Dr. Mary Megson did some research and suggested using cod liver oil to protect against vaccine reactions and correct problems associated with the measles vaccine. It worked for my son as he had polio, dpt, and mmr shots at 4 yrs. old and did not regress any further. The mmr vaccine is now available as single vaccines. My doctor said if I had another child, to wait until after 2 yrs. old to vaccinate. Japan's rate of sudden infant death syndrome went down dramatically after vaccinating kids after 2 yrs. The hepatitis b shot is not neccessary this early. As a med tech , I never saw a single case of hepatiitis b in kids unless they got it from their mothers. A saw more kids with hepatitis A. Hepatitis B shot should wait until puberty. Since your nephew has autism, it would be better to be cautious and wait until he is 2. Definitely space the vaccines out over a long period of time and get single vaccines when possible. Your nephew might benefit from the gluten/casein free diet even if he tests negative for wheat or milk allergies. My son is living proof of it. Glutamates in food such as wheat and dairy products can cause huge problems in ASD kids. I wish your family well.
