The purpose of this group is to prove that children with autism are medically ill. We intend to band together successful and recovery driven parents on a common platform to expedite the needed investigations and protocol development for effectively treating all children with autism. People that join this group will add to their knowledge and increase all of our common knowledge and understanding of this medical condition.

This group is not intended for championing any treatment protocols, supporting specific therapies or debating our medical system. This group's efforts are not focused in what causes autism. Our focus is to prove that these children are medically ill. It is strictly dedicated to discussing the medical aspects and related symptoms that indicate an immune system dysfunction that we believe may be the root cause of this poorly defined syndrome.

This group will engage in positive and proactive conversations with a sister organization developing the first autism medical disease registry verifying these common medical issues. The ability to unify and verify the commonality of these conditions will grow to be the undeniable fact used to advance the research and protocol development that is needed. This will give the collective medical data about these children's common medical condition an undeniable voice.

Additionally, once parents have re-diagnosed their children's true medical condition to immune system dysfunction, we believe they can get treatment and services that were previously denied them by their insurance companies and general pediatricians because of their incorrect autism diagnosis.

This group will help everyone understand that autism is a catchall for an undiagnosed medical condition these children suffer from and then champion a cure.
