The U.S. Department of Health & Human Services has determined that vaccines given to Hannah Poling on her 18 month medical check-up significantly aggravated an underlying disorder that caused autistic symptoms.
According to the case, Hannah was healthy and developing normally until her 18 month immunizations, two of which contained thimerosal, a mercury-containing vaccine preservative.
Hannah became ill within hours of receiving the shots, and within three months, she began showing signs of autism.
There are 4,900 such cases like Hannah's still pending in Federal "vaccine court".
As we know, many parents believe the multiple, wide-ranging vaccines now given to children before they enter kindergarten play a role in: withdrawn behavior, lack of emotion, speech delay or absence, learning difficulties, attention deficit, focus, extreme sensitivity to sound and touch, repetitive movements, impairment in social interaction, and a delay in fine and gross motor skills.
Although thimerosal was taken out of childhood vaccinations in 2002, autism rates continue to rise. One reason for this may be that infants are still exposed to thimerosal in flu shots. And, what most parents don't know is that vaccinations today still contain such toxins as aluminum, formaldehyde, and animal viral antibodies.
According to Donald W. Miller, MD, mercury's negative effects are significantly increased in the presence of aluminum and other neurotoxins. And aluminum, as most people know, has been implicated in other brain and neurological disorders.Therefore, many doctors and scientists agree - the rise in brain abnormalities among children are likely caused by an interplay between genes and these environmental factors.
Our children are exposed to more and more toxic metals and chemicals every day, such as mercury, lead, food additives, pesticides, vaccination toxins, and so on. In some children, especially those on the spectrum, these toxins build up in their systems due to a “metal-metabolism” disorder.
In other words, they are genetically unable to detoxify sufficiently. This causes neurological as well as digestive problems. As a result, chelation therapies to remove toxic metals including thimerosal (mercury from vaccinations) from the body are now a cornerstone with DAN doctors and other experts treating childhood neurological and behavioral conditions.
Many experts agree that when you remove these chemicals and metals and balance the child biochemically, all other behavioral and integrative therapies such as music therapy, applied behavioral analysis (ABA) and so on, work much more easily and effectively.
Chelators are substances that bind to heavy metals. The two most common chelators used by medical professionals are transdermal DMPS and oral DMSA. As excellent as these chelation therapies are, they are not without problems: They are expensive, they require visits to a doctor, and there is a greater risk of side effects, especially for children.
There are more natural ways to detoxify the body of heavy metals and chemicals that have less risk of reactions and work just as well. Two of these are the Kids Clear™ Detoxifying Clay Baths and Kids Chelat™, a liquid internal chelating dietary supplement.

Good information Shelley. It is astounding what awful stuff they pass off as good for us! Children are so susceptible to the synergistic effects of toxins in the foods, the water, even the air we breathe! So many medicines and vaccines, the very things that are made to keep us well, are not safe.
My cousins son is autistic. I have a close friend who's son is autistic and my next door neighbor's son is autistic. Sure seems like there are too many autistic children. It's so heartbreaking ! At least these parents are doing something with their law suits. I hope they get enough compensation. Parents of autistic children have allot on their hands. They need all the help they can get.
