So, apparently Jenny McCarthy's kid never had autism in the first place

New Report Says: Jenny McCarthy's Son May Not Have Had Autism After All

Quote:

After years of speaking publicly about her belief that MMR shots (immunization for measles, mumps, and rubella) caused her son to suffer from autism, Jenny McCarthy now faces the reality that her 7-year-old son Evan — who no longer shows any signs of autism — may likely have lived with completely different illness. A new article in Time magazine — which Jenny was interviewed for — suggests Evan suffers from Landau-Kleffner syndrome, “a rare childhood neurological disorder that can also result in speech impairment and possible long-term neurological damage.”

However, this won't stop her from speaking out, of course!

though her son may never have had autism, Jenny insists, “I’ll continue to be the voice” of the disorder.
