And it was thus that I wandered over to autistics.org, to check out the newslinks. I shouldn't bother, they're all the same, always, and bland and boring as well, but I really *did* have nothing to do. Can't even really walk around, my leg and back still hurt after my fall on the ice today (more on that later).
And there's these two links in the news feed. One about how chelation is used to 'treat' autism. It's fairly biased towards it, even mangling a quote from a doctor *against* chelation, turning "not a treatment for autism" into "now a treatment for autism". And just below that is an article about two deaths of children due to chelation. One of them had lead poisoning, the other one was, of course, Abubakar Tariq Nadama.
*shrugs*
They just lined up so neatly, is all.
