Louder Than Words: A Mother's Journey in Healing Autism

May 5, 2014
I have always strongly disliked Jenny McCarthy, not as an actress or anything but as a person. I think she is completely uninformed and ignorant of so many things and, indirectly, causes harm to others. I find her whole campaigning again vaccines and claims to "curing" her sons autism, cruel and, quite honestly, dangerous. It's people like this woman that made diseases that were nearly extinct start rising again and that are harming other people and children. Ignorant people like this woman obviously have no idea of the concept of "herd immunity". But hey, obviously the welfare of other human beings means nothing to this lady or else she wouldn't be writing this sort of rubbish knowing that, as a person in the public eye, people will actually pay attention.
First of all, this book has no research involved, whatsoever (except Google, which she happens to love so much). I wish people would realize that the doctor that came up with the connection between vaccination and autism did not only not have enough proof to support his claims and ended up denying them himself, as was also stripped of his medical license. No mention of that, uh, McCarthy?
In the book McCarthy supports several of her claims and medical choices because she had a "feeling in her gut". What? Does that even count as an argument? This is funny because the woman that has lots of "feelings in her gut" had no feeling whatsoever during the long period of time her son displayed strong and classic signs of autism and only when he got diagnosed made a correlation between the two.
This is the same person that displays a "holier than you" attitude towards other moms that didn't buy into the nonsense she did, at a certain point she even says "Some moms don't believe than maybe that's the reason their kids don't get better". Say what? How dare she imply that she loves her son more than other mothers love their sons?!
Then she actual

    One morning, Jenny McCarthy was having a cup of coffee when she sensed something was wrong. She ran into her two-year-old son Evan's room and found that he was having a seizure. In that moment, Jenny went from being the mother of an average toddler to being in the midst of a medical odyssey. Doctor after doctor misdiagnosed Evan until—after many harrowing, life-threatening episodes—one amazing doctor discovered that Evan suffered from autism. Though Evan finally had a diagnosis, Jenny didn't know what to do next and soon found herself alone, with no resources except her determination to help her son. She eventually realized that she'd have to become a detective. She spoke with numerous doctors, parents, governmental agencies, private foundations, and essentially earned a PhD in "Google research." At last, she discovered an intense combination of behavioral therapy, diet, and supplements that became the key to saving Evan from autism. In this book, she creates a roadmap for parents who are concerned about their own child. Jenny does more than just reveal the winning formula that worked for Evan. Her account shares the frustrations and joys of raising an autistic child and shows how, with love and determination, a parent can shape their child's life and happiness.
