    Part of the problem is that they don't know what all of the shots can do to a child all at once. One solution I've heard is that they stagger the shots as opposed to giving them to babies all at once. They pump those little bodies full of some deadly viruses to immunize them, but can such a young and small person handle all of them? They don't really know - is the true answer.

    I have a 3 year old neice (4 this week) who is severely autistic, but who gives me the greatest joy in the world. Her tiny little accomplishments are fucking amazing. She walked down the aisle as a flower girl with my older brother... we weren't sure if she would be able to do it, but with a little help, she did it.

    I still cry to myself late at night worrying about her and her future.
    I, for one, am glad it's getting the media's attention and I hope it doesn't go away. The more attention, the more funding, the more funding, the better the minds that are attracted to the cause, the greater the minds... well, you get it.

    1 in 150 kids is born with it. That is fucking insane.
