[Tip of a very big iceberg.]
[2009 Oct] Autism One: A Conversation of Hope with Teri Arranga: GBS Post Vaccination She received a flu and a tetanus vaccine in July. In addition to still developing a flu-like illness, little did Melissa know that she would soon land in an internationally renowned neurological center for brain and spine diseases, expected to die. Melissa now believes that her severe symptoms and the treatment she received following the two vaccines in July fit a case of Guillain-Barre Syndrome.
[2009 june] Letter: Can Flu Vaccine Trigger ALS? About two weeks after receiving the flu shot, I was walking home from a meeting and was so short of breath that I didn't think I would make it home. I had to stop several times as I had a pain in my chest and breathing was so difficult......Shortly after that, things started to fall apart with numbness in my left knee, the inability to climb stairs and tripping on the lawn......after another visit to the neurologist, the bottom fell out of my world. I was told I have ALS. There is no cure. It is fatal. My time here would now be short.......In my heart of hearts I am convinced it was the flu vaccine that started me on this journey. Recently I have been made aware of two women—one with ALS and one with MS—who strongly maintain that within about ten days following a flu vaccine, their symptoms started.
[2009 June] In Memory of Marina McQuaig
Marina passed away at the age of eight on November 26, 2008. Marina suffered
from a severe seizure disorder precipitated by vaccination and
re-vaccination.... "I was given a flu shot with thimerosal [a mercury-containing
preservative] when I was eleven weeks pregnant with Marina.....I avoided using
asthma medication because I didn't want to harm my developing baby, but then I
had to use it because the flu shot gave me oculo-respiratory syndrome and I
couldn't breathe.....Marina was born with cutis applaisia [improper skin
development] on her hands and feet, which to me is an obvious result of the
vaccine because the last layer of skin forms at around the eleventh week of
pregnancy.
At two months she was diagnosed with epilepsy but she usually
would never have more than one or two seizures a day. Because health authorities
do not withhold vaccination for something they consider such a minor health
problem [ie an evolving neurological condition], Marina was injected with all
the usual infant vaccines on schedule at 2, 4, 6 and 12 months. Looking back,
she did have reactions to most of the vaccines but we never linked it the way we
should have.
At 18 months, Marina was due for the seven vaccines
given then: diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, polio, Haemophilus Infiuenzae B,
chickenpox and meningococcus. She had been free of seizures for a year except
for one possible seizure we didn't see but suspected two weeks before the 18
month vaccines.
We told our paediatrician and the health nurse
about this but the nurse told me they changed the vaccine and it no longer
affected seizures. At the time of the vaccines Marina had a cold. I kept asking
the nurse if it was all right to go ahead. She said yes - just give Marina
Tylenol for the next twenty four hours."
The result was: a two week stay at Children's
Hospital with one week in the ICU; unremitting seizures followed by seizures
almost daily, up to more than fifteen per day; Marina came close to death 60 hrs
after the seven doses. Unbelievably, public health carried on as if nothing had
happened."
.......because public health denies any connection, what's happened to Marina
will not go to 'statistics' to help prevent the same thing happening again. I
hope one day. if enough parents continue to tell their stories, our children
will be protected."
