The move to wordpress.com has happened. A little faster than I was prepared for as I didn’t get the last few days of comments archived. LeftBrainRightBrain.co.uk points to lbrbblog.wordpress.com (at least for me) now. Links to old posts seem to be working. We’ve lost Kev’s beautiful design, but we still have his words archived. Let me know what problems you see with the transition. But with luck we will just be moving forward as usual.

Autism not linked to Lyme disease
There are many hypotheses of what causes autism. Many. Among those is that autism is caused by Lyme disease. Lyme disease is caused by infections of bacteria spread by ticks.

Two steps forward, one step back
Good News: British groups supporting unorthodox biomedical approaches to autism are distancing themselves from theories attributing autism to vaccines. Bad News: These groups are still promoting treatments – such as stem cell therapies – for which there is no coherent scientific rationale and no good evidence of efficacy or safety. Treating Autism, with an address […]

The good news is that wordpress.com says today is our busiest day ever!
(they lost the stats for the previous days)
Thanks for the “recent comments” section; it helps. One more, can you make the lbrb logo at the top clickable to bring you back to the home page?
Sullivan, I wanted to email you to ask if you or one of your colleagues would review my book: Parenting Girls on the Autism Spectrum: Overcoming the Challenges and Celebrating the Gifts. I have two amazing girls on the spectrum, and the book is well-researched and full of practical, real-life strategies to help girls and their parents. No biomedical stuff, just truly helpful research and proven science-based interventions! Tony Attwood recommends it! Could you email me?
Everybody here ought to read this.
