Jenny McCarthy introduces Access to her amazing son who is fighting to overcome autism, and she answers the question of what happened when she contacted both the McCain and Obama campaigns to help her cause connecting childhood vaccines with autism.
My daughter was diagnosed autistic at 2 1/2 and now at 6 we have nuero's, peds, therapists, schools, and even the govt agencies that tell me everyday that she is no longer autistic. They don't say she is not exhibiting symptoms anymore-they removed her diagnosis completely. It's just that word "cured" that bothers-but it's what the docs/ govt. /
Guys, Autism is NOT a disease!!!! It CANNOT be cured. There is no cure! One can get to the point of not exhibiting the symptoms but THERE IS NO CURE!!! How do I know this? I have Autism. What Jenny's doing is honorable, but the matter of her saying she 'cured' her son is completely false.
As the mother of 3 autistic boys (4,6,&8) it makes my stomach turn when such ignorance is displayed among individuals who have no knowledge or experience with autism. Those who are autistic are not retarded. My own son has been reading since the age of 2! I am thankful for people like Jenny who say it like it is.
Way to go Jenny! Ignore all the haters out there! They are just dealing with their own issues and are jealous - because not only do you talk the talk...but you walk the walk!
Fortunately here in the UK the vaccine hoax has been exposed, but I see the US still has some way to go. Please, for the sake of their health, do check the science before denying your child vaccinations. Its all out there. just Google for the evidence. I beg you, please don't be persuaded by misinformed celebrities.
In response to imalwaysright. People with autism are not retarded. They are actually sick. You are the one that is retarded. The next time you post a comment on a topic you should educate yourself first. Do you have a child with autism? I'm sure the answer is no with comments like that.
In resonse to imalwaysright. By the way people who have autism are not retarded. They are actually sick. You are the one who is retarded. Read up on the subject before you make uneducated comments next time. Also, I'm sure you don't have a child with autism like some of us.
