A lady from my church and I were just emailing back and forth about how we can't stand doctors...never realized she used to work in a hospital. Here's a little of what she wrote....can you imagine!?!?!?!

 

"When I worked at Methodist Hospital I was in a meeting where a doctor was present. A woman died while in that hospital because the medical had given her blood transfusion that was contaminated with aides and she died at the age of 62. The doctors response in the meeting was quote "she was old anyway". I was angered and sickened but not surprised knowing how they continue on even when they know something is harmful. My sister worked at the U of M. A woman in her 30's was in for whatever. It was written all over her chart and on the board above her bed "allergic to penicillin, absolutely cannot have". Guess what - the doctor injected her anyway and she died. His response to the family was "complications set in". We had some people over for dinner Saturday night and this very subject of the medical profession came up and one of the men was just livid about the tactics and rightfully so in many of the cases. There's a better world a comin'."

I Can Vouch For The Pain Of "New Autism".

Posted by: "Jagannath Chatterjee" jagchat01 jagchat01

Dear Friends,I can vouch for what Dr Bryan says, as he describes the "new autism". The gut, the entire nervous and neuro-muscular system, the brain are severely affected. It is very difficult to accurately describe what goes on. Imagine all sorts of boring insects gnawing at your innards and wasps, flies and mosquitoes bothering you from the outside and you may come near. An autistic feels his entire nervous system all the time, mostly because of the pain. The pain in the guts and inflammatory brain pains are simultaneous. The brain feels jammed with accessing the memory a tantalising inch away. You feel your entire memory may be wiped out at any moment and the brain may just flicker out and die leaving you a total blank.The soles become extremely sensitive and painful, hence the tendency to walk on the toes. This sort of stretching also relieves the neuro-muscular pain for some time. The head banging,

moving around in circles, is due to the awesome intestinal colic that is madding. Sometimes this colic appears in the solar plexus region forcing you to bend double.You are past caring leading to the fearless state that autistic's exhibit. What could be worse than this, is the underlying thought. People, even God, say there is a limit to pain. Try telling that to an autistic. Never ending pain is the only thing that is constant in his life.The guts loose the ability to retain stools. All emotions are reflected in the guts leading to a further deterrioration of the situation. Even a slight anxiety necessitates a rush to the toilet. You feel tired and exhausted all the time. Even sleep exhausts. You desparately try to escape the hell hole that is life but you do not know how. It is very difficult to tackle even ordinary situations. You get used to a certain pattern with great difficulty and when things change, ever more

subtly, you panic at the thought of having to re-adjust once again. Change is anathema to the autistic. Even the thought of being cured may be daunting for a cure may mean a different world, a world about which you have no idea.Your moods, your symptoms, your fears change all the time.Each day is new and brings a fresh set of problems. If change is what you hate, change is what you get. This is an irrefutable law of life and autistics cannot escape it. You do not want to face the world outside. It is full of unexpected tricks and turns. Coupled with an affected gut, the situation makes even the thought of travel break into a cold sweat. At times of stress such as these the memory may suffer a total blackout. On two occasions I have alighted at a station with no idea of who I am and what I was doing there. A very frightening situation, I can assure you. Meeting strangers is difficult because you don't have them mapped out in your

brain.The depression never lifts. You often feel like retiring to a corner of a dark room and curling up. The external world being so frightening, the autistic creates a world within and is happy there. The worst thing is, you know. You know your difficulties, you know your shortcomings, and in my case, I know what caused it. You also know that you are not supposed to be like this. That you ought to be normal. That you ARE normal but this malfunctioning body and brain comes in between. When this feeling becomes overwhelming you snap. You go crazy. You scream, you cry, you hurt others, you run away. You are termed a schizophrenic.You are not free of pain even in your sleep. You dream of even greater pain. You dream of not being able to do what others do sans a thought. You dream of facing exams without a shred of memory in your brain. You dream of doing the wrong thing even as you know what is right. Your dreams are full of

anxiety. Such dreams rob you of the much required rest and you get up feeling frightened and totally exhausted. Oh, how wonderful it would be to simply vanish and not exist. There would be less trouble for yourself, your care givers, and the world in general. The autistic is only too acutely aware that he is a burden unto others. The problem is accentuated by a tremendous sense of duty, a great desire to care for others, a love for work, a struggle to be perfect. The intense battle that rages relentlessly within is often lost in the expressionless face of the autistic.This is a peep into the world of autism. This is the autism that only the sufferer knows. This is the "new autism" that Dr Bryan speaks of, the latest gift of medical science to the world's children, and some adults.God bless them, even though they know what they are doing.Regards,Jagannath.Deseret Morning News, Friday, July 27, 2007

Author focuses on 'new autism' By Elaine JarvikDeseret Morning News http://deseretnews. com/dn/view/ 0,1249,695195442 ,00.htmlHere's what Dr. Bryan Jepson thought he knew about autism six years ago: that it was a rare, genetic, developmental, untreatable brain disorder. But that's the "old autism," he says.Bryan JepsonJepson, who graduated from the University of Utah School of Medicine in 1995, says what he knew about autism then he mostly learned from the movie "Rain Man." Later, in 2001, his lovable, happy 18-month-old baby began to change — to "fade away," as Jepson puts it. The toddler no longer wanted to be read to, wouldn't look his parents in the eye and liked to spin in circles in the middle of the floor.A child psychiatrist told Jepson and his wife, Laurie, "Prepare yourself for the time when

Aaron will need to be institutionalized. Forget experimental therapies."Instead, Laurie Jepson took to the Internet. And before long, her husband — who categorizes himself as a "mainstream" physician — was deep in medical literature about the biochemistry of autism. Soon he was convinced that autism is a complex metabolic disease that has as much to do with the gut as it does with the brain.Bryan Jepson, who is now director of medical services at Thoughtful House Center for Children in Austin, Texas, is back in Utah this week to talk about his new book, "Changing the Course of Autism: A Scientific Approach for Parents and Physicians." On Saturday, he will speak at a free workshop sponsored by Porter's Hope, a Utah-based company that assists the families of children diagnosed with autism."All of a sudden, there's an explosion of autistic kids," Jepson says. As recently as 1980, autism was rare, with a rate of about 1 in 5,000.

Now, he says, it's 1 in 160.It's an epidemic, he says, "and there's no such thing as a genetic epidemic."At the same time, the "new autism" is less likely to show up within the first six months or year of a baby's life, and is much more likely to be "regressive, " showing up at 18 months to 3 years to rob the child of previous skills — sometimes almost overnight, sometimes as a gradual decline.There's a genetic susceptibility for autism. But something else has to explain the sudden rise in numbers — and it's not simply a matter of better diagnosis or a broader definition of what autism means, he says.The answer appears to have something to do with the increased toxicity of the environment, he says, from food additives to vaccines and antibiotics. Children who are born with a genetic susceptibility for autism have trouble detoxifying, he says.The increase in other chronic diseases such as asthma is evidence

that autistic children may also be proof of what's to come, he says. "It's kind of like the canary in the coal mine."Already, he says, the treatments he uses have helped children with attention-deficit hyperactive disorder, or ADHD, as well as autism. He believes that eventually the knowledge of how autism works will affect our understanding of conditions such as chronic fatigue, dementia and Parkinson's.Jepson's book is a review of scientific studies conducted by the Autism Research Institute, whose founder, Bernard Rimland, was "the first to put the puzzle pieces together," Jepson says. The book also examines studies done by independent scientists.Many primary-care physicians and pediatricians are not up-to-date on the latest research, he says, "and it's hard to do autism in the 15 minutes" allocated for many doctor visits. Jepson, who founded the Children's Biomedical Center of Utah before moving in 2006 to Texas, says he

knows of only two Utah doctors who are currently treating autism as a medical disease rather than a behavioral disorder.Calling autism a behavioral disorder, says Jepson, is like calling a tumor a headache. Instead, he says, autism is just one symptom of a disease process that affects the digestive, immune and neurological systems.The majority of children with autism have gastrointestinal problems, sometimes causing severe pain. Their tantrums and head banging may be a manifestation of pain they can't articulate, Jepson says. If the gut disease is treated — with diet, nutritional supplements and medication — that behavior goes away."Your gut is an immune organ, and it can trigger inflammation elsewhere in the body, including the brain," he explains. "And it's a big source of your metabolism. If it's not working right, you're not getting the appropriate amount of nutrients from your food, and you're not preventing toxic

exposures as you otherwise would."The sooner children are put on aggressive gastrointestinal- immune-detoxific ation treatment, the more likely they are to recover, he says. There's still no cure, he says, but the vast majority improve. The Jepsons' son has gone from "pretty severe to pretty moderate."

'Dusting' First, I'm going to tell you a little about me and my family. My name is Jeff. I am a Police Officer for a city which is known nationwide for it's crime rate. We have a lot of gangs and drugs. At one point we were # 2 in the nation in homicides per capita. I also have a police K-9 named Thor. He was certified in drugs and general duty. He retired at 3 years old because he was shot in the line of duty. He lives with us now and I still train with him because he likes it. I always liked the fact that there was no way to bring drugs into my house. Thor wouldn't allow it. He would tell on you. The reason I say this is so you understand that I know about drugs. I have taught in schools about drugs. My wife asks all our kids at least once a week if they used any drugs. Makes them promise they won't.I like building computers occasionally and started building a new one in February 2005. I also was working on some of my older computers. They were full of dust so on one of my trips to the computer store I bought a 3 pack of DUST OFF. Dust Off is a can of compressed air to blow dust off a computer. A few weeks later when I went to use one of them they were all used. I talked to my kids and my two sons both said they had used them on their computer and messing around with them. I yelled at them for wasting the 10 dollars I paid for them. On February 28 I went back to the computer store. They didn't have the 3 pack which I had bought on sale so I bought a single jumbo can of Dust Off. I went home and set it down beside my computer. On March 1st, I left for work at 10 PM. Just before midnight my wife went down and kissed Kyle goodnight. At 5:30 am the next morning Kathy went downstairs to wake Kyle up for school, before she left for work. He was propped up in bed with his legs crossed and his head leaning over. She called to him a few times to get up. He didn't move. He would sometimes tease her like this and pretend he fell back asleep. He was never easy to get up. She went in and shook his arm. He fell over. He was pale white and had the straw from the Dust Off can coming out of his mouth. He had the new can of Dust Off in his hands. Kyle was dead. I am a police officer and I had never heard of this. My wife is a nurse and she had never heard of this. We later found out from the coroner, after the autopsy, that only the propellant from the can of Dust off was in his system. No other drugs. Kyle had died between midnight and 1 AM. I found out that using Dust Off is being done mostly by kids ages 9 through 15. They even have a name for it. It's called dusting. A take off from the Dust Off name. It gives them a slight high for about 10 seconds. It makes them dizzy. A boy who lives down the street from us showed Kyle how to do this about a month before. Kyle showed his best friend. Told him it was cool and it couldn't hurt you. It's just compressed air. It can't hurt you. His best friend said so. Kyle was wrong. It's not just compressed air. It also contains a propellant called R2. It's a refrigerant like what is used in your refrigerator. It is a heavy gas. Heavier than air. When you inhale it, it fills your lungs and keeps the good air, with oxygen, out. That's why you feel dizzy, buzzed. It decreases the oxygen to your brain, to your heart. Kyle was right. It can't hurt you. IT KILLS YOU. The horrible part about this is there is no warning. There is no level that kills you. It's not cumulative or an overdose; it can just go randomly, terribly wrong. Roll the dice and if your number comes up you die. IT'S NOT AN OVERDOSE . It's Russian Roulette. You don't die later. Or not feel good and say I've had too much. You usually die as you're breathing it in. If not you die within 2 seconds of finishing "the hit". That's why the straw was still in Kyle's mouth when he died. Why his eyes were still open. The experts want to call this huffing. The kids don't believe its huffing. As adults we tend to lump many things together. But it doesn't fit here. And that's why its more accepted. There is no chemical reaction, no strong odor. It doesn't follow the huffing signals. Kyle complained a few days before he died of his tongue hurting. It probably did. The propellant causes frostbite. If I had only known. It's easy to say hey, it's my life and I'll do what I want. But it isn't. Others are always affected. This has forever changed our family's life. I have a hole in my heart and soul that can never be fixed. The pain is so immense I can't describe it. There's nowhere to run from it. I cry all the time and I don't ever cry. I do what I'm supposed to do but I don't really care. My kids are messed up. One won't talk about it. The other will only sleep in our room at night. And my wife, I can't even describe how bad she is taking this. I thought we were safe because of Thor. I thought we were safe because we knew about drugs and talked to our kids about them. After Kyle died another story came out. A probation Officer went to the school system next to ours to speak with a student. While there he found a student using Dust Off in the bathroom. This student told him about another student who also had some in his locker. This is a rather affluent school system. They will tell you they don't have a drug problem there. They don't even have a dare or plus program there. So rather than tell everyone about this "new" way of getting high they found, they hid it. The probation officer told the media after Kyle's death and they, the school, then admitted to it. I know that if they would have told the media and I had heard, it wouldn't have been in my house. We need to get this out of our homes and school computer labs. Using Dust Off isn't new and some "professionals" do know about it. It just isn't talked about much, except by the kids. They all seem to know about it. April 2nd was 1 month since Kyle died. April 5th would have been his 15th birthday. And every weekday I catch myself sitting on the living room couch at 2:30 in the afternoon and waiting to see him get off the bus. I know Kyle is in heaven but I can' t help but wonder If I died and went to Hell. This Officer is asking for everyone who receives this email to forward it to everyone in their address book, even Law Enforcement Officers.
