Not in my imagination

I got the info below today from a friend. Connor's MMR had thimerisol (mercury) present in all of his vaccines, administered on the same day, when he had just turned 2 years old (cause that's what we're supposed to do if we're good parents...)

Since that time (8 years ago), thimerisol has been either removed completely, or is in much smaller doses now than it was. Theoretically, you should be safe getting your child vaccinated. But I'm not taking any chances with either of our boys anymore. As far as I'm concerned, God told me not to vaccinate them because they are autistic. I use the religious exemption for their schools. Works for me.

U.S. scientists back autism link to MMR
The vaccine strain of measles virus has been found in 85% of samples taken from the guts of children with regressive autism, according to a study to be presented in Montreal, Canada, this week by Dr. Stephen Walker of the Wake Forest University School of Medicine in North Carolina.
The study replicates findings made by Dr. Andrew Wakefield, a gastroenterologist, in 1998, and by Prof. John O’Leary, a pathologist, in 2002.

More than 2,000 parents in the UK claim their children suffered damage from the measles/mumps/rubella (MMR) vaccine. They say the children were developing normally before receiving the shot between 12 and 18 months of age, then regressed into autism.
The British Department of Health reiterated last night that MMR is safe (Beezy Marsh and Sally Beck, Telegraph.co.uk 5/28/06).
