I am a parent of a 15 year old autistic child. I remember spending a 3 week vacation with my 5 year old and not seeing a single symptom of anything. We returned from this summer vacation, and my son then received his vacinations to attend school. He was never the same I saw strange behaviors immediately after. From day one the teachers said something is wrong. After many dead ends with miracle cures (gluten free diets etc) we tried chelating agents under a doctor's care thinking we might see excess mercury. We didn't, we did find very high levels of arsenic. This pointed to Chromated copper arsenate used in pressure treated wood. We had a pressure treated swing set and he played at parks with pressure treated lumber. My guess is that mercury in vaccines may be the tippng point to excess heavy metal exposure in small children from various sources.
