Mercury fillings

I am not an expert on the reasons children get autism but in the course of finding treatments for JadenGrace, I cannot ignore the proofs that mercury harms some children. The most common way for children to get overloaded with mercury is by numerous vaccinations, one after another. For a child with low immune function, they almost always cause autism. Another way is if Mama has a mouth full of old fillings, which are mostly mercury. I do have lots of fillings that are over 30 years old. I had these in my mouth while pregnant with Jaden and I had two of those teeth removed in Jan or Feb of 2004, when Jaden was around 7 months old. She was still nursing, and my biggest worry was whether the pain meds would get into my breastmilk. I was clueless about autism, and how the mercury could have harmed the milk she was drinking.
One of the treatments for autism is chelation, which removes the metals from the body over time. When Jaden was tested for metals, she showed high lead and a touch of mercury. But chelation needs to be done later on, when the body is healed from the gut issues and the absorption of vitamins and minerals is in balance. Jaden is on her way towards that. Once tests show she is healthy enough, we plan to use chelation.
I am so grateful that there are ways to help autistic children now. If Jaden was born even ten years ago, I am not sure we would have the hope of recovery that we have now. Thank God for the Docs who are so willing to help these children, even in the face of criticism from those who still believe nothing can be done.
