    On a lighter note from my last post/rant, I will be attending the Workshop on March 12th. If anyone that is attending from the Langley/Cloverdale/ (you get the idea) area the "Campbell Family Truckster" has 5 seats available for carpooling on a first call first serve basis.

    Couldn't sleep and have to get this off my chest.

    While I am not suggesting for a moment that children not be vaccinated, I do have a true bone to pick with the Japanese study that seems to solidify and put to bed the whole vaccination argument.
    It is widely agreed that mercury is the second most toxic substance on the planet (uranium being #1) yet we put it in our mouths (in the form of mercury amalgams) and in our children's vaccinations. The people in coastal Japan (coincidentally where Yokahama is located) have the second highest body burden of mercury (from large fish consumption) in the world. First place in this race goes to North American Dentists and Dental Assistants who are protected by nothing more than a paper mask ask they breathe in mercury amalgam fumes. The Yokahama study does not bring into account the body burden of mercury from other sources, which will only rise as the food source becomes more polluted. Had they elimnated Thimerasol in say….Saskatchewan then you might have a study. Then again that dirty ol' mercury is everywhere. Its even in Dove Soap…..I'm not kidding.
    There are a growing legion of phenomenal doctors (sadly mostly in the states) who are risking their very licenses to treat the mercury issue with a chelation protocol. Dr Buttar has had amazing success to the point where many of the kids he has treated ( including his own son) have had the veil and stigma of autism lifted. Is that not the ultimate goal??!!
    It was sad to read things like "anecdotal evidence" and "no credible evidence". Tell the kids that doctors like Buttar have chelated that they are simply "anecdotal" or "Not credible" because they now have the capacity to understand it.
    We are agressively treating our daughters autism according to the DAN protocol as well as with ABA therapy. Every vitamin, mineral, pro-biotic…….(and the list goes on) that we add to her daily regime brings her further out of her "fog". It is truly amazing to see her ability to focus (eye contact), speak, play and just get to be a kid.
    For all the detractors…….keep in mind it wasn't that long ago that ABA was considered new and not the mainstream way to treat these kids . Wait a second our own government thinks that today.
    The next step for us is TD-DMPS. If for nothing else than to remove the heavy metals from her system. We couldn't be more excited.
    I hope that by reading the Japanese study that parents don't think that the mercury issue is by any means resolved. Mercury is a problem…….my daughters urinalysis charts prove that it is in her. I want it out.

    In response to Marie and Dwight………

    I completely agree with the two previous posters…..Glad to see Thimerosal and Mercury being discussed here. While I will not force my opinions upon you, here are couple of good sites to continue your research.

    Hi All;

    We are (finally) getting our ABA program together, and are looking for some specific items.

    Action Cards & Blocks (multiple shapes and sizes).
    If anyone out there knows where we can purchase these let us know, or if you have any for sale please send us an e-mail.

    We would be interested in any other materials all you pros out there know we're going to need. Our daughter is 4…….thanks for any help.

    Just a quick question regarding the petition….

    We have amassed 281 signatures, but since they were collected at work (downtown) they are not from one riding. They look like a cross section of the Lower Mainland. Didn't think 'til after the fact to get differnt sheets for different ridings.

    Is anyone collecting these type of petitions (for one mass collection) or is there a specific MP who we should take them to. One who anyone has gotten a favorable response from…..any help would be great.

    Thanks

    Alan

    We have been busy on the internet sending the petition to all our friends and family.
    We now have a question……we have several petitions that are being signed in a few different ridings.
    Mark Warawa (Conservative; Langley), James Rajotte (Conservative; Edmonton), Patricia Torsney (Liberal; Burlington), Geoff Regan (Liberal; Halifax), Hedy Fry (Liberal; Vancouver Centre).
    Should we have our friends and family send them all back to us to deliver to our MP (Mark Warawa; Langley), or deliver them to their own MP's for a broader reach?
    We've written our letters, sent out the e-mails and are shouting from any soap box we can to deliver our childrens message. Let us know what you all think is best with these petitions.
    Thanks,
    Cindy & Alan Campbell

    Hi all!

    Is there a link somewhere to a downloadable petition that everyone from this site is using? My wife and I both work in the service industry and have, beyond friends and family, customers who are eager to sign on. We are anxious to get my hands on one that can be sent electronically and printed by friends and family who live across the country who are more than willing to get more signatures. We are more than willing to design one ourselves but as always there is power in numbers and if there is one that the bulk of the parents on this list are using we would like to use it.

    Dubravka's "Attention to all Canadian Citizens" is awesome and has gotten all I have shown it to interested in signing. Thank You

    Thank You All

    Here is Geoff Plant's quote from his CKNW interview with Michael Smyth…….
    "we want to tell our health experts to spend our money ONLY on the therapies that are PROVEN to be successful"

    He also said……"the public has a legitimate issue (to ask) if the government has done enough…he doesn't RUN from that".

    This is a GREAT sounding board for all of us, in the fight for our children. We WILL educate the public!

    Thank you to Avery & Dennis for hanging in there on the phone lines and having our voices heard. They will be heard again, and again.
