AUTISM ration 1- 150

I have to warn you, I am going to rant and rave a bit and step up on my soap box for a bit. So please forgive me for being so blunt.

Did you know that the ratio for autism 1-150 was from 7 years ago! Why have they not put a new number out in 7 years!!! I just watched the Larry King Live show that I missed with Jenny McCarthy and it infuriates me that these doctors would talk about how its just genetic. REALLY.............how can it be only genetic, there has never, been a genetic OUTBREAK!!!!!! Something is causing this in our children and NO ONE WANTS TO TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT EXACTLY IS DOING IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wake up people, the ratio is getting higher despite what OUR numbers say ( 1-150) The UKs rate of autism is 1-60!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How could ours not even be closely comparable to theirs???????

See this is what frustrates me as a momma of a child with autism, the POLITICS OF IT ALL!!!!!!!!!!! How dare they play political games when my sons and many other childrens LIVES are at stake!!!! Our children are NOT a game of russian roullet, please save us your sarcasam and genetics ONLY responses and DO YOUR DAMN JOB AND, and when they finally do decide to do their job, they find out exactly what we have!!!!

Okay I'll step down now and talk a little about Matthias progress today :) WHEW :)

Today has been good so far :) He had his kindergarten evaluation today and his teacher said he did great! She was suprised because he sat still for so long and only had to take ONE break :) Normally Matthias is easily distracted and never sits still for very long at all.

Last night he woke up at 12:30 and didn't go back to sleep until 5am :( I was sad cause it seems to me as if the nights we give him his Methyl b12 shots he sleeps all night. So tonight we will see, tonight is his next dose and I will post if he sleeps or not :)

Much Love
