If you can tell us who you are. Brenda and David McDowell. Hi, how you doing? We have triplets. We have triplets that are now 10. They're 10 now. That's before the injury. Two boys in a girl. Two boys in a girl. And their names, I've written their names on the bus. Richie, Robbie and Claire just says they are in that picture. Yeah, they're gorgeous. Okay. All right, so let's talk about what happened. Well, every day in our life was a party. Every single day they were holding hands and smiling and laughing and looking at each other, engaging in each other. And we brought them in at nine months and four days to do. We were doing one vaccine at a time. They were born 36 weeks triplets, basically five pounds each. Yeah, we did well. They were well. Everything was well. They came home after a few days of being monitored in the NICU. And on June 25th, 2007, we brought them in for the new mo cockle shot. So just that shot one shot. And I went in. Not with my husband. He was working. I went in with my nanny and we went in at 10 a.m. All three. Yeah. And it was the last one on the page is the June 25th, 2007 was the shot that did it. And we went in at 10 a.m. for the shot. My daughter still has the mark on her leg from the shot. She was the first one to get it and she screamed and never really stopped screaming after that. But we continued. We didn't know. We did the boys as well by noon. Claire shot completely off. Claire, our daughter shut off first. It was as if she was blind and deaf and complete failure to thrive from super, super happy smiley girl to this is a picture of her. She had full blown eye contact. She was super lovely and she shut right down. And all she did at that moment was stare at the ceiling fan. So that was at noon. We had the shot at 10 a.m. to a clock. We watched Richie shut off all his raspberry blowing and mama dead that and the furniture walking and everything just they just shut off all the giggles all the smiles. It again failure to thrive. They lost all their reflexes. I'm an educational audiologist. I actually did the test for the stupidial reflex which is a little muscle in the middle ear just to see if a muscle they can't control was still working. And it didn't the stupidial reflex dampens sound. So your ears don't hurt from a really loud sound. And both of them had no stupidial reflex. They stopped blinking, stopped yawning, stopped coughing, stopped sneezing. You could go towards their eyes and they wouldn't even face nothing would face them. They lost their startle reflex. I threw a telephone book on the floor behind them and no startle nobody even looked to see what it was. But so that was two o'clock. We watched Richie shut down and I couldn't breathe. But the we got the worst is when we saw the final one shut down. Sorry. Hmm. Where's Robbie? We lost Robbie. Robbie looked like he was hit by a bus. Robbie from that moment on had a stunning look on his face. If you asked or said his name, he still acted deaf and acted like he couldn't hear. Although they did have normal hearing, I had it all tested. But he lost his happiness. This is a first first-year picture for his birthday. Three months after the shot. Three months after the shot. They were no longer engaged in anything or anyone. They lost their smiles. They just were in their own little separate worlds. They never held hands again. They never looked at each other again. Sorry. Vaccine injury is real. We were told it was genetic. And then we were told by geneticists that there's no possible way three children we shut off on the same day. That was absolutely statistically impossible, especially being two boys and one girl. So we were also told we could not sue anyone. We were told we signed for that shot. No doctors could be sued, no vaccine. Manufacturers could be sued. We found out when they were five and a half that there was a vaccine injury court. When we, I think we're all getting smart phones around them. That's when we, you know, I headed at my pocket and started googling everything. And they then told us that we were too late. They only had three years to apply. So we have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars trying to recover them. The only person that we got back is Robby. The one that was last to shut off. We're making progress. We are making progress. So we had severe autism spectrum disorder for all three kids entering kindergarten. That's how long that severe, even with all the therapies interventions, you name it, we did it. We decided to go with the summarize therapy, which was to try and find happiness in our day. And we have happy little people. They're not, they're not mean. They're not aggressive. They're very happy. And I attribute that to the summarize therapy. But we still have a long ways to go. Richie can only say single, maybe two words together. He's in a lot of pain. He grinds his teeth. He's, we're still working on it. Claire is still completely not unverbal. Not potty train. Richie's not fully potty trained. Robby is now. And Robby is approaching the level, but severe OCD. And we're coming along. It's just one day at a time. My husband wanted to kind of tell you what a day in our life can look like. Even, you know, because of the property management. Let me tell you what a day in our life is. So you got, say, a six or seven or eight years old child who's not potty trained. And two or three or four o'clock in the morning, they filled their diaper. Well, you assume that's pretty uncomfortable. So they take it off. Pretty soon. Pretty soon. It's all over them. It's all over the bed. In short, order. It's all over me. It's all over her. I'm snapping at her. She's snapping at me. We're both snapping at the kid who is the only innocent party in the whole scenario. And the one thing that's conspicuously absent from that scenario is, is anybody who told you that shot was safe. They were all asleep in their bed. Damn, got a problem in the world. The hard part about that is I asked the nurse. We actually had to go to Macomb Health Department to get our shots done because I did not have coverage for well baby coverage. So they said it would be a little cheaper because I'm doing three. Then there's assured me over and over and over again. It would not harm them. It would not. I was so worried about that. And like you just said, where are they now? You know, I did make a report the very next day. I called the nurse. I called Macomb. They wrote it all out and they did not submit it. I found out later it was not sent in. We found out seven years after we got the vaccine that it was contaminated. And it was pulled from the market a week to two weeks after we got the shot. So it was recalled for sterilization issues. And we found out they wouldn't tell us what was wrong with the shot. We found out from a friend who was a doctor looked up the lot number of the actual shot and found out that it was it had killed a two year old and they didn't want the public to know. So that was the actual shot and lot number that we got. And so I guess we're lucky that we didn't lose them. We could have lost all three on the same day completely. But they just mean why the first doctor we saw told us to invest in the group home. I mean seriously. Then the second and then we were we were we were giving them a lot of money to start up the vaccinations again. Yeah. Yep. And then the group of doctors we were with when this all happened gave us a break up letter and say we'll go ahead. What happened is we woke up one morning and we had three happy healthy nine month old children by that evening. You know we took them for a vaccination by that evening. They were autistic. What we said to our pediatrician is we're not going to do anything. We're not going to we're not going to do any more vaccinations until we know what happened here. What they said is if you don't continue to do exactly what you did the day your children turned autistic we're going to fire you from our practice. So they broke up with us. They broke up. They sent us a lovely letter saying we were no longer welcome at their practice because we weren't going to continue well baby checks. And that is the one decision that will never regret. Yeah. That's just you know these people in Paris go but you can't be sorry for everything. You can't be sorry. It's not okay. They can argue with families that your child because it might be a single child was genetic they can try and put that back on the family and say somehow your genes are weak but with us having two boys and one girl they lose the argument with us hands down so we are the living proof that they're all lying. I'm going to show you some of these hearts because I can make a second strong and they call it. Really? Lucky. Yeah. Have a check for me just so I can make this one. I'm going to give it to you. Do these hearts here? No. It's so sweet. It's so sweet. I'm so sorry they'll be not allowed. It's beautiful. Thank you. You're not alone. We're not alone. Yeah. Somehow I don't know if I'm crazy but I really believe in my heart that we're going to get them recovered because I knew they were so normal before. See this tucks and you may want to watch this back because this is the old you found me by the way. That's amazing. Look at them. Wow. These are people that have had the same experience. We're 80s people. We didn't know enough to go on a date. We'll go home and get cars going. I think they'll be joining you guys. Thank you for all the love. You're really coming. Thank you. Thank you. And thank you. Truly, truly sorry. Thank you. I know. And yours. Thank you for leading the way. Thank you. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Thank you. I'm sorry. It's everywhere. Everywhere I go, I always bring up the conversation. Everywhere I go, I bring up the conversation and I ask people and they can always name me a friend, a cousin, a relative of theirs. Everyone knows a child with autism now. So when will we stop this? I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
