"It's Not Herbie, Mama, It's Froggy!"

Yep, that's what he told me this morning after I repeatedly kept calling Froggy by Herbie. I thought he was holding Herbie, not Froggy, but he quickly let me know otherwise! That's pretty good!
Recently I have been reading a lot about the vaccination debate. When you start looking into it, it's quite disturbing and confusing. There is a huge debate (I think right now the most debated topic in medicine) over whether vaccines are a cause (trigger) of autism- of course you have to have the genetic component of autism as well. I hadn't really thought much about this until my own child is now autistic and I'm the one trying to figure out what this "trigger" might be for him. I read on the CDC website- they have a whole page on vaccines and autism, and the last FAQ is what disturbs me the most- "should we delay vaccinations until we know more about the negative effects of vaccines?"- to me that says that they don't exactly know what the negative effects of vaccines are just yet. They say no, but hmmm.... it makes you wonder, doesn't it? I also read an article where a man named Jock Doubleday is offering $80,000 to the first MD or CEO of a pharmaceutical company or a member of the CDC to publicly drink standard vaccine additives- he first offered it on 2001 and has increased the offer steadily since then... there have been NO takers yet... yet by age 2, my son has received 24 vaccines.
