Jenny McCarthy Cures Autism?

How in the hell is that possible? Crazy. I just don't know...

The actress—who believes the MMR vaccine was to blame for her son's diagnosis —says a strict no wheat-and-dairy-free diet has changed her son from a quiet little boy who used to flail his arms around to a loving six-year-old. "Before the vaccination, he was huggy, lovey, snuggly," she says in the newest issue of Us Weekly. "Then it was like someone came down and stole him."

McCarthy, 36, remembers when Evan began to come out of his shell while watching a SpongeBob episode. "I heard Evan laugh...I jumped on the bed and started screaming."She adds, "When he finally hugged me, I prayed, 'Please God don't let this be the only time.'"McCarthy has become an outspoken advocate for autism awareness, often courting controversy along the way (doctors have accused her of creating fear of necessary vaccines). She's the bestselling author of five books, including her newest, Mother Warriors: A Nation of Parents Healing Autism Against All Odds.

"I made a deal with God," she explains. "I said, 'You fix my boy, you show me the way and I'll teach the world how I did it.'"

I have never heard of such a thing. How can this happen? Don't get me wrong I am more than happy that her son seems well now, but that is just crazy. Jenny said that she made some dietary changes for her son. Could it have been food allergies and not actually autism that was the problem?
