The Autism Enigma on David Suzuki's The Nature of Things

I found this very interesting. If you haven't watched this episode yet, it is available for viewing on the CBC website.

Click on above link.

The reason I find it of particular interest is because my son was placed on broad spectrum antibiotics from age 3 months, every single day to age 1 when he had surgery on his left kidney. It was for no other reason but as a "preventative" measure, in case he developed a UTI due to a kidney not draining properly. I would like to add that he went off antibiotics at age 1, and his kidney is the same as it was before surgery and he has NEVER developed a UTI to this day.

He did however get diagnosed with autism at age 3 due to behavioral changes and speech loss that he started to experience around age 15 months.

It is important I believe to keep an open mind and I will always consider every possibility for the sake of my son and for the pursuit of truth.
