My name is Fiona O'Leary and I along with two of my five wonderful children are on the autistic spectrum.
I am an Autistic Rights advocate/activist and I have recently founded with the help of my colleagues the organisation ART 'Autistic Rights Together'. ART is a non-profit organisation consisting of Autistic people and like mined Neurotypicals who passionately believe in the empowerment of Autistic people to achieve equality and respect in modern day society.
I have been fighting for the rights of Autistic people for many years now and I am disgusted to see how society continues to fail us.
I have spent the last ten months actively involved in a worldwide Campaign to end abusive Autism Treatments.
People all over the world are working hard fighting to end these awful unlicensed, unproven and dangerous treatments.
One of these so called 'treatments' which I am sure you have already heard of is MMS / CD. A Bleach treatment which is given to Autistic children and adults by parents and caregivers. The name of this treatment is the 'CD Protocol'.
The CD Protocol was created by Kerri Rivera and involves daily doses of bleach, orally and also via invasive painful bleach enemas. CD (Chlorine Dioxide) is also administered in baths and dehumidifiers.
Autistic children and adults are being tortured with this bleach treatment and suffering horrendous side effects from ingesting this poison. Vomiting, fevers, skin rashes, seizures, low blood pressure, internal bleeding, low sodium levels, hair loss, weight loss, diarrhoea, bowel prolapse, kidney failure, the list goes on....
Added to these physical traumas is the constant fear and terror these Autistic children and adults are subjected to every day.
They are dosed all day long, prisoners of this abusive treatment! Isolated from society due to the fact that parents are advised to hide from Child protection and Authorities. Many of those on the CD Protocol are removed from school to commit to this abusive treatment. The psychological damage caused by the CD Protocol doesn't bare thinking about.
You would think that our government should care wouldn't you?
You would think that after all the campaigning, the countless emails, the extensive media exposure and direct phone calls to all the relevant authorities that something would be done!
We have generated great awareness and warned many people but the truth is this, the CD Protocol continues and will until laws our put in place to stop it!
In Ireland we are making good progress, with investigations into parents using CD on their Autistic children, and investigations into those selling and offering MMS/CD as a Medicine. However even if we ban the product (MMS/CD), it won't stop the CD Protocol.
People can buy Water Purification drops anywhere and make MMS/CD themselves. The treatment (CD Protocol) itself must be banned and made illegal.
Therefore legislation is needed to deal effectively with all unauthorised Autism treatments and any future treatments must be regulated before they are marketed to the public.
At present Autistic people are guinea pigs, being experimented on with dangerous unproven and unlicensed treatments.
An example of why legislation is so important is shown in recent dealings with the Loews O'Hara Hotel in Chicago.
We have been trying to stop Kerri Rivera and an Autism One conference from going ahead this coming May 23rd in Loews O'Hara Hotel in Chicago.
People have been sending emails and phoning the Hotel. We have an online petition with 943 signatures at present, click here to sign the petition.
I have written many emails and made several phone calls to the Hotel management.
After speaking to three different members of management, the last being the head of their public relations legal team, I was informed that the Hotel will not be cancelling the Kerri Rivera conference and that is their final word.
Yes they could cancel if they viewed this issue ethically, however management checked out Kerri Rivera and told me she is not wanted by the Police, she has no criminal background and there are no laws stopping her advocating this treatment!
I am sure if she had MMS/CD on the day of the conference the FDA may be interested but I assure you Kerri Rivera is not that dumb. She is fully aware of what is going on and knows that there are no laws stopping her talking about her CD Protocol.
This is the reason I keep pressing home the issue of legislation, it is the only way to stop Kerri Rivera and her abuse of Autistic people!
Below is the final email I received from managing director Paul Ohm below. I telephoned Sarah Murov mentioned in email and she confirmed that they will not cancel the Kerri Rivera conference.
