ANOTHER AUTISM CASE WINS IN VACCINE COURT
ANOTHER AUTISM CASE WINS IN VACCINE COURT
By Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
On February 12, the federal “Vaccine Court” in Washington issued a sweeping ruling in three highly touted “test cases” against families who claimed that their childrens’ autism had been caused by vaccines. The Special Masters in those three cases found that Petitioners failed to establish causation between MMR vaccines, the mercury-laced vaccine preservative thimerosal, and autism (the court decision, which is under appeal, deferred any finding on a thimerosal-only theory of causation). The rulings could have a significant precedential impact on some 5,000 families who opted to bring their cases in the Omnibus Autism Proceedings (OAP) hoping that the vaccine court would officially hold that the MMR vaccine or thimerosal had caused autism in their children.
Scam warning: Dr. Moulden’s DVD
just wanted to post this in case anyone has been following Dr Moulden and was interested in purchasing his DVD. Well, don’t waste your money. I ordered this in December and as of today, have yet to receive this. On inquiring over a month ago as to when I was going to receive it, I was told it would be mailed that weekend? weeks later, I have yet to receive it. (I have not received a refund either.)
In case I do ever receive this DVD, I will retract this post and let you all know - but for now, I gotta say that this has had to have been one pretty clever scam.
I hope he proves me wrong, but I’m not holding my breath.
March 24, 2009: Just wanted to provide an update since I’ve been getting emails about this - No, I have not received the DVD that I paid for in December 2008. I have not received a refund that I requested well over a month ago, nor have I received a response to that request.
Update: After months and months of waiting, I finally did receive Dr Moulden’s DVD. He never communicated back with me that it had been shipped. And never responded to me again after I requested a refund. Out of the blue on October 14th, 2009 - I received a message on my facebook email from someone I had never met or did not know offering to send me a copy of his DVD and another one. When I asked this person if she was a member of his team now (because she was making excuses for him), she never responded again. Sound familiar?
Nicholas tattled on Daddy!
I could hardly believe this. Grandpa and Grandpa came over yesterday and I hear Nicholas in the other room talking to Grandma. He told her that Daddy dumped the soda down the drain and mommy said it was because it was not good for us. LOVE IT!
New Multi-Vitamin
With Nicholas being less and less eager to drink his stuff lately, I was on the lookout for a new multi-vitamin — and have been giving him a new one for the past week with no issues whatsoever. And, it’s SO MUCH cheaper than the brainchild formulas, so that is a huge plus!
The new one is:
Klaire’s VitaSpectrum
Some folks reported it was chalky, but I tried both the powder and capsule forms and neither was an issue here - I dont know how much water they were mixing it with, but I tried 2 ounces of water for 2 capsules and had no problems. Nicholas gets 4 vitamin drinks per day, 3 of which has 2 capsules of this supplement mixed with his other supplements, some water and some pear juice.
Info about ordering from Klaire
I also added liquid b-12 (methylcobalamin) as it was the only vitamin/mineral with a significant difference.
Pure Encapsulations B-12
New Supplement added
I added this about a week ago.
2 Drops of Adrenal Cortex Extract
Nicholas has adrenal fatigue - I had tried this ages ago, but he reacted bad to it, so we’ve been trying it again and so far so good.
Nicholas has a freckle-looking rash!
Last night, Nicholas’s face looked like it was dirty from something. After looking more closely, it looked like he was starting to get freckles. This afternoon, when he got home from school, it was coming from under his ear, up the sides of his face and across his cheekbone and a spot on his forehead. It’s like little brown and red freckle marks, but they dont look like freckles.

Update on Nicholas
Nicholas is a little bit yeasty these days — we were all sick a couple of weeks ago and I missed two days or so of getting his supplements into him, so I knew it was inevitable - but we’re pushing through it and fighting the yeast beast yet once again. I have also increased his Enhansa - and while that has anti-fungal properties, it also is anti-viral - which can create yeast at the same time, so while it’s doing it’s thing with the virals, we’ll just have to deal with it and push through. He’s not too bad as a result, but I have noticed his language can be a little bit slurry at times and his receptive language is not where it was before the yeast reared it’s ugly head.
That said, I am amazed more and more everyday what Nicholas is saying and doing. Over the past week, he’s been playing all by himself at starfall.com (great site) - and then I showed him NickJr.com - and he’s playing with these web-pages like he’s an old pro. Just watching him navigate these websites and games has been just amazing.
Last night, I asked my husband to dump out the remainder of the coke and diet coke bottles which we had left over from company (we no longer drink that crap, but occasionally, I just want a coke!) - and Nicholas got very upset. He came to me and said, “Mommy - daddy dumped the soda down the drain - why did he do that?” I just about cried.
Yesterday, we drove past a little amusement park on our way somewhere - and Nicholas pointed at it and wanted to stop there and go on the rides - I was floored. Not only was he sitting on the opposite side of the car and he saw the park, which was impressive - but he actually knew they were rides and wanted to go on them!
Last week, we took a ride into New Hope and stopped at the train station for Nicholas to see the real trains - which he loved. He has asked every day since if we could go back to the train station.
I’ll add more as I think of it…..
