I have been on here for 6 months now. Please read the rest of my postings. My son is now 5 and doing great! I have my child back. He has been off Singulair since October 07. It took a few days to see little improvement. It took a month to make strides. And now we are almost home. Thank God. I too until I found this website was so distraught. My son had every test in world, comes from about as stable as you can get happy loving catholic home. We eat healthy organic foods and I am a medical professional to top it off. So for anyone to get on here and questions a parents "parenting" or to call them ignorant for not stating their complaints until now is simply a moron! I see the side effects first hand this has had on children. I too was unaware of the problem myself until my son became the victim at only the innocent age of 4. Merck knows what is going on. There needs to be a class action lawsuit. I am so proud of Kate whose son became the victim of Merck who took his innocent life. She went beyond blogging and took it to media. Imagine if all of us became motivated enough to realize the drug company used and abused our children or selves. Write oprah, bill o riley, merck the fda, everyone. Everyone I come in contact with I warn them. I email everyone I know and urge them to forward it and so on. The one god given duty that we were given was to protect our children. WE NEED TO DO THAT!! I am so proud of the parents who are speaking out and realizing their kid is not a pyscho. Kudos to you!! I am holding Merck responsible for this traumatic event it caused my entire family let alone my four year old son. They owe us big time, not just for the medical bills that endowed for all the tests, doctor visit, and psychiatric visits. But also for our mental anguish!! Be active and we will make progress!!!

You are completely right! We've been doing all of this too. We've emailed Oprah, Dateline, Nancy Grace, Reuters, Wall Street Journal, ABC, you name it. Anyone who has eyes and can bring more attention to the media. Our son was 5 and was threatening to kill himself, saying that he hated this "feeling inside him" and no longer wanted to be on this earth. After reading here a month ago, we immediately took him off, and he is completely back to normal now thank God!
Like you, it was such a traumatic event for our entire family, not just my son. It nearly destroyed us.
For 4 years people have been posting here, why is it NOW in the headlines? That's what I just don't get. Doctors ignoring the warning signs? Pharmacuetical companies wanting more money? Whatever the reason, it needs to stop and all parents and adults taking Singular need to be aware of the potential side effects.
Let's keep speaking out!!! Let's get heard!
