“Information on how to heal autism and how to possibly delay vaccines or prevent autism shouldn’t come from me. It should come from the medical establishment.”

I have my once-a-month nachos, but it’s soy cheese and turkey chili on it, so it’s somewhat safe. But it’s still a big vice for me, because I have a big bowl of it.

I don’t really go out much at all. But there are times when I’m like, ‘I gotta get out.’ Then we go to Vegas, and we’ll gamble.

I’m not as hard on myself anymore. I’m comfortable exactly where I am, though it took me until I was 34 years old! I still have things I’m really insecure about, but I’ve changed by loving me – C-section scars, stretch marks, and all.

I do believe sadly it’s going to take some diseases coming back to realize that we need to change and develop vaccines that are safe.

Kids will not listen to that. They’re going to experiment no matter what, so you have to be honest.

Without intervention today, the cost of care for adults with autism will be significantly greater and the burden will no longer lie with the parents, but on our entire society.

Having a child makes you realize the importance of life – narcissism goes out the window. Heaven on earth is looking at my little boy. The minute he was born, I knew if I never did anything other than being a mom, I’d be fine.

Waking your kids up for school the first day after a break is almost as much fun as birthing them was.

What is missing from today’s dialogue is the effect autism is having on families, our society and what the unknown factors are. The 300lb. gorilla in the room is that our children with autism today will soon become adults with autism.

My philosophy of dating is to just fart right away.

What are friends for? They are the ultimate reflection of yourself. Always surround yourself with people who inspire you and return the favor by giving them the best of you.

Obviously, I’m not a trained actress, and right now I’ll come out and say I’m glad I’m not.

Why should 20-year-olds only be considered sexy? I think we get better with age.

The one thing I like about ‘Playboy’ is they don’t have the anorexic look. The women are voluptuous. So I didn’t really want to diet. I just wanted to tone up.

I’m not a sex symbol.

It can be hard for the cute girl. I was blond, cute, broke. I was beat up. I was thrown inside lockers. I was burned with cigarettes. My hair was lit on fire.

Without a doubt in my mind, I believe that vaccinations triggered Evan’s autism.

If you give us a safe vaccine, we’ll use it. It shouldn’t be polio versus autism.

Those outside of autism need to understand this is an epidemic and we need more government funding, insurance coverage and education reform.

I look at autism like a bus accident, and you don’t become cured from a bus accident, but you can recover.

The reason why [the medical community] is reluctant to talk about it is because there’s such a huge business in pharmaceuticals.

I did want to acknowledge and confirm the fact that my son does, indeed, have an autism diagnosis.
