March 13, 2012: Have you ever wanted to tell the CDC what’s really going on? Give them a piece of your mind? Our own Blaze had that chance. So read on, dude. And be excellent to each other.
“The answers to those questions???…We don’t know!!!, not a whole lot!!!, probably nothing!!!, who knows!?!. To say it was enlightening…well, it was…but not in a good way. When it came time, half way through the day, for the public comment section, I was agitated, and my other autism mom friends who came to speak were as well. No urgency, no new answers, none of the desperation that we as Thinking Moms are feeling.”

I would say to Autism Speaks …Change your name, you speak for no one.

Trudy Snyder If I would have looked up and seen the “pre murderous bitch” Singer NOT paying attention and playing with her phone…I would have tapped the mic and said “Excuse me, Ms Singer? Ms Singer, I listened when you and your cohorts spoke now I would appreciate the same curtosy from you. Thank you”. I would have called the bitch out in a public way.

Julie Vargas when i had given birth to my daughter he nurse at the hospital tried to bully me into vaccinating my little girl for hep b DESPITE a direct family history of adverse reactions of both myself and my brother to the vaccien. She even went as far as to talk trash about me to the other nurses. My husband overheard her and made her look like a complete fool and made her look like a quackMarch 14 at 12:54pm · Like · 1
