Autism. Another one Falls
I live on a little court, 12 houses. Everybody knows everybody and there's very little turnover. In the past 20 years there have been three boys born to families on this street. Not a lot of kids. All three boys have come down with autism. Not one has skated by without the diagnosis. And, these are real, classic autism cases: toe walking, hand flapping, non-verbal, no-eye-contact autism. The third one just fell to it. He's a little over two years old. He was speaking and interacting with his parents - funny little guy. But, he's stopped talking now and had taken to toe walking around their car in the driveway....round, and round, and round.
Should this be thought-provoking? What are your thoughts? Might this be a regional/environmental thing? All three were fully vaccinated per the CDC schedule up to the point of acquiring the disorder. This third one, though, is interesting. His family - all Fox News Neocons - have been loyally pro-vax since I've known them. I know the type well, being a conservative guy myself and having a lot of friends who are very Republican. The attitude is always, "I don't trust government except for vaccine safety. They nailed it on this one topic." As the baby has clearly hit the spectrum he lost his grandmother. Two days after getting her first mRNA vaccine she dropped dead in her apartment - on my buddy's (her son's) birthday of all things. She was in good health, mild diabetes. Found dead on the floor. If you read the VAERS reports on these mRNA vaccines there is a clear pattern of this kind of death. That, obviously, shook the family. Now...they're opening up to me about grandma and this little boy - asking for my input. I haven't opened up yet. I'm reluctant given how painful it is.
The unspoken numbers of this pandemic are staggering. As a father, a coach, and a man who lives in the state that houses at least 1/4 of the nation's homeless (a huge portion of which is able-bodied men in their 20s) I can tell you this is a serious issue. News media wants to tell us about George Floyd, how well Biden's first presser went, and what a bad guy Trump is. At what point do American's wake up and recognize a problem?
