Clinical narrative: My son and only child was born healthy and perfect. He was only sick 2 times before his 18 month well check. He was saying words, playing peek a boo, teasing our dog, running through the house yelling my name, smiled and laughed often and loved attention. On December 13th he received dtap, hib, polio, hepatitis a and influenza when he was 18 and half months old and 24 pounds. I remember 12/13/16 like it was yesterday. The pediatrician asked me about milestones and language and I shared something funny that happened. Patient and I were at the grocery store and he was sitting in the front of the cart. There was an elderly man in front of us moving very slowly. Patient starts saying loudly, "go go go!" I was so embarrassed. When she showed me the vaccines he would get that day, I said, "that seems like a lot, are you sure that's ok?"  She looked at them and told me he had all of them before and he had no reaction, right? I said, no I guess he didn't. At the grocery store before 12/13/16 was the last time I heard my child say, "go, go, go". Days later, he suffered physical and neurological injuries as evidenced by pictures and videos of a left sided facial droop and left sided body weakness. I didn't realize at the time it was a vaccine reaction. I was never informed of possible serious adverse reactions. He was teething very heavily, had a mild fever, quiet, lethargic, and withdrawn and just generally not feeling well. He had a tough, awful time teething, so I thought that was the issue. But later in January, my mom called me in a panic and said, there's something wrong with him. She watched him 2 days a week while I worked. I had a babysitter the other days and the sitter noticed the same as my mom. I just knew something happened to him when he shut down, stopped responding to his name, staring episodes, and stopped saying words. My baby was ahead of the curve with most developmental milestones then suddenly and dramatically regressed after that round of vaccines. I called the pediatrician and early intervention crying and saying I don't know if he hit his head or if he is traumatized over his nana but he's different and everyone is concerned. I have a lot of pictures and videos because I went back to try to figure out where my baby went. That's when I finally made the connection and noticed the injury in the pictures, retrospectively. There is a noticeable difference before and after Dec 13, 2016. My son received several EEG's and an MRI that were deemed normal. However, when I pushed for answers, one of the neurologists at Hospital verbally told me and my husband that our son has "BRAIN DAMAGE". This is not documented anywhere on paper. The only thing documented is a neurological report summary that states "POSSIBLE ENCEPHALITIS or POSSIBLE ADEM". But he was not formally diagnosed with either. His diagnoses are unspecified nystagmus, developmental regression, disturbance of consciousness, altered mental status, and expressive language disorder. And of course he exhibits behaviors that are consistent with ASD. Also, I was denied a functional MRI as well as other blood, urine, and hair tests that I requested. His blood labs that were done were all "abnormal" but no one will explain why or what they mean. They just say "they're not that bad." Currently, my son has no functional language and he is in speech therapy since March 2017, he is frequently ill at least twice a month, chronic ear infections, tonsillitis, bronchitis, spikes fevers for no reason, sweats profusely, has intermittent left arm weakness, small pupils all the time, signs of possible asthma and food sensitivities, nystagmus and strange spots on his sclera that weren't there pre vaccine injury.
