Second in a three-part series.
Jennifer VanDerHorst-Larson is a mother of a child with autism. Like many parents of children with autism, once VanDerHorst-Larson found out her child was diagnosed, she took matters into her own hands and became directly involved in the therapies and treatments for her son.
In 2002, at the age of 19 months, VanDerHorst-Larson’s son Cade was diagnosed with autism. Cade also has Celiac disease and a seizure disorder that occurred following his 15-month vaccinations. VanDerHorst-Larson believes that those vaccinations led to Cade’s autism. He was a healthy baby boy who had reached all of his developmental milestones, but there were dramatic changes in Cade directly after he had his shots for MMR, the flu, and chicken pox, VanDerHorst-Larson says.
