Autistic Adventures in Gut Repair, Diet Change, and Embracing Change

WARNING:  very long post Have I ever told you about some of my food exploits, the ones that brought me to what I’m now doing?  Maybe not… When I left my parent’s home for a pre-meds program, I knew that the foods I ate at that wilderness canoe camp left […]

Developing Immunity to Tetanus

I’ve been alert for tetanus research since my late-October fall opened up an eyebrow. One of the first questions health professionals always ask, if you’ve a cut of any kind, is whether your tetanus shots are up to date. I’m not squeamish, and have had lots of needles over time. […]
