 2004P-0349: My 6-year-old son has mercury poisoning. 



My little boy regressed after vaccinations; at 6 months he quit saying "mama" and didn't speak until 14 months.

After his 3-year vaccinations his behavior became bizarre, with tantrums, scripting, stimming. He was 

psychologically diagnosed as autistic, but later medical tests revealed that he actually had mercury poisoning. 



Within two weeks of replacing lost nutrients our son made dramatic improvements in mood, behavior and abilities. We now

are preparing to use chelation to chemically re-bond and excrete the rest of the mercury. I now understand the adjective

"mercurial" -- our son's behavior has been and continues to be unusual and challenging at times. But with early intervention

he has now entered first grade with minimal supports from the public school's autism department.



I am enraged that I had to figure out this medical mystery on my own. The U.S. Government has utterly failed its children.

Mercury got into my son's little body, but all I hear from various agencies is "it wasn't OUR mercury" -- as if the mercury

injected or in tooth fillings is mere pixie dust. It is time that the CDC and the ADA take responsibility for mistakes 

they have made. Lying and denial compound the problem.



It is not too late to save children from a lifetime of cascading illness caused by untreated bioaccumulations of mercury.

Puberty may cause an exacerbation of symptoms due to increasing levels of testosterone. The longer that government

agencies wait, the less credibility they have with the public. And that will unnecessarily erode confidence in the 

nation's vaccine program.



For the past 2 years I have researched mercury toxicity -- from Thimerosal, from dental amalgam, from fish, from the

environment. I believe that my son inherited my body burden from my tooth fillings; the children of Minamata, Japan

were damaged in utero though their mothers suffered few outward symptoms of the toxic heavy metal. Later my son

got more mercury from RhoGam shots, then from nursing.



Mercury is a slow killer. It strips the myelin sheath off nerve cells. It sets up autoimmune disorders and nutritional

insufficiencies, causes mental illness and neurological disorders. An abundance of scientific research supports

the theory that a subset of the population is genetically predisposed to more severe mercury poisoning, because

their bodies have fewer molecules to bind and excrete toxic heavy metals.



 I beg you to please put people over profits, and do everything possible to remove mercury from vaccines, 


  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  


  

  








  

  
 from dental fillings, and any other product that finds its way into the human body.



The continued use of mercury in products for human consumption amounts to genocide.
