So now we're having a national debate, courtesy of Mayor Bloomberg, over super-sized sugary drinks and obesity. Fine, but what about a super-sized vaccine schedule and its effects on diabetes and obesity, for starters?

NEW AUTISM FILM: BEAUTIFUL SON ON PBS
In 2003, Hawaii filmmakers Don and Julianne King realized something was wrong with their three-year-old son, Beau. Around age two-and-a-half, Beau started losing his ability to speak, his coordination, and was becoming disconnected from the outside world. Determined to help Beau, his parents brought him to the best doctors in the U.S. and took along a video camera to document the results. Two months later, Beau was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
In BEAUTIFUL SON, Don and Julianne take us on their journey through the landscape of this debilitating neurological disorder as they attempt to recover Beau from autism.
Along the way, through their research and personal interaction with various medical professionals, Don and Julianne come to believe the establishment has little to offer apart from advice of “good parenting” and behavioral therapy. Desperate to find help, they stumble upon a community of doctors and parents who are experimenting with alternative treatments and who are, they believe, successfully recovering some kids from autism.
Please contact your local PBS station to see if they have scheduled Beautiful Son into their programming. If not, ask them to! Learn more and order your copy of Beautiful Son HERE.

wonderful video! I have three children one with HFAS, another with an immune dysfuction, and my third with a seizure disorder. Interesting.
This could have been a video about my search for an answer, except I don't have nearly the support of my husband who wants to throw up his hands and let the "doctors" take care of it.
