Oh wow! I have always noticed my son (diagnosed autistic) walks slightly differently to most people but I’ve never mentioned it to him. He has enough on his plate and it doesn’t seem to bother him.

How horrible for you Nat. Makes me angry on your behalf that you were let down by adults who should have known better.

Onwards and upwards hey? Xxx

Absolutely and thank you. There is no point dwelling and being angry about the past. Just makes you bitter and depressed. You are only torturing yourself even further. I intend to make the most of the now and focus on the positives. x

Bless you Nat,

What a horrendous experience and at such a young age too.

Thankyou for being so honest and raw about it all.

You are one hell of a woman and a wonderful mother to your children.

Lots of love to you all 💖💖💖

arggg. Makes me so angry. It reminds of the stable boy and his clubfoot in Madame Bovary, which he'd been managing fine walking on all his life until Bovary decides his achilles must be cut and the leg encased in a wooden box, the leg swells and turns gangrenous, after which the leg must be amputated and the stable boy ends up in a bigger wooden box.

Your story epitomises the whole of the hubris and arrogance and misplaced helpfulness of modern medicine (which I've worked in all my life).

You are a brave and beautiful girl and woman.

Thank you Jo. I haven’t read Madame Bovary before, I will do so now to read about the poor stable poor.

It's unbearable! I saw an adaptation on tele once, even more unbearable to watch xxx

How horribly sad. What an awful thing to do to a child. At least you've stopped the same thing happening to your own children.

Wow that’s horrible Natalie. How can one’s own parents put a child through something, regardless of a Drs inability to see right from wrong for something manifested out from un-diagnosed autism. Mistreatment and abuse of a young healthy life shows that your strength of spirit has helped you push through to the fine young woman you are, I’m older than you so I’m allowed to say that :-) . Thanks for sharing some more personal insights

Thanks so much Wayne. That means a lot. We both must carry on making people aware of the dangers of medical negligence and malpractice in the hope the same doesn’t keep happening to others. x

Oh Nat, I am so sorry.

I am so sorry you went through this. My great neice walked on tip toes for the first 2 to 3 years of her life and is autistic. The whole family just let her and never made a thing of it. She now walks perfectly well. Wishing you well on your road of healing.

This is also interesting, I didn't know about the vestibular dysfunction but ASD is also associated with ear 'infections' and GI symptoms- due to the frequent antibiotics for the ear disorders and poorly timed vaccinations? https://georgiedonny.substack.com/p/mmr-and-autism

Thank you for the link. I definitely believe there is a link to the gut with ASD. My eldest son sadly also had a reaction to the MMR jab and is now most significantly affected by his autism. We have not had any vaccines in this family since.

So sorry about your son. My good friend Markijke is local rep for the Arnica group in the UK, her eldest had a bad reaction to a jab. I may even be following you cos she does. I thought she was mad before the plandemic. Now I feel very differently about everything.

Thank you so much for your honesty and posts- we have to keep expressing our experience, it's meant to help doctors and scientists to learn and get betterr- fortunately we don't have to wait for them to catch up! xx

🙏🏼 Thank you, really appreciate your support. I am so relieved to hear you got a second opinion for your son. Yet more evidence to not blindly trust the medical profession. I would always now advice serious consideration for surgery on a child after my experience. x

Thank you for your kind words. I’m so sorry to hear your cousin was also affected so badly by medical negligence. We have to hope that by sharing these stories eventually others will realise not to put so much trust and blindly be led by Big Pharma and the medical profession.
