My son had lead over 20 when he was 18 months old. They are down under 10 now. It takes a long time to come out of their system he is in speech therapy and is about to start special education pre school. However he can say all of his abcs he knows numbers, shapes, his colors. I believe that with the preschool he will be in line with other children his age. Please pray for us
This broke my heart. Man... As a father of a two years old baby girl I cannot imagine the pain I'd feel in this situation. Thanks for spreading knowledge and I wish this family the best.
sweet shirt, dad
What a sweet heart , I hope he gets the help he needs.and is well
This nearly makes me cry. I hope someone can reply to my comment one day with updates on this child.
He's still short

What?
What a cute little man lol. He's very lucky to have such a loving father too ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This video was so heart felt 😿
I was his age when I was eating lead paint off a window sill while my baby sitter was taking care of my older sister at the time. My mom and dad came home from a date minutes later and saw me in the window eating the paint. I could only imagine the damage that could have been done. My dad held me upside down Over the sink spraying the sink sprayer down my throat gaging me to puke then rushing me to Mass geneneral hospital. My blood level reading was 77.8 BLVR. They didn't think I'd be able to read to write to be a normal child. I'm so lucky for who I am. But the dread of the damage that was caused I live with forever. Aphantasia is the worst outcome I can't see images in my head. Blind in the mind but not disabled, blessed but damaged.
my brother 15 and he has eaten the same kind of led my bro acts exactly like
How is he doing now?
Why does this video not have more views?
I'm going to make it no matter what
It’s not advertised well, but luckily it’s gaining views!
I am frustrated to think how little there is awareness about such deadly disease. Nowadays parents are sticking to their phones when their childrens are playing with contaminated surrounding. The parent-child interaction has lost due to mobile devices. Until now, I didn't even know about lead poisoning. I am scared when wondering about what will be the future of the neighbour kid. I have seen him licking walls and eating dirt. His parents was always busy in phones and their works. I always had to remind them about their child.
Let our government understand first.
Is there an update on Antonio now? How is he?
Godbless them
unpopular opinion: I was skipping around and I thought the adult had led poisoning. Im not saying this happened, but smoking does make you more careless, making your children more prone to neglect.
Does anyone know the name of antonio's dad or Antonio's last name.

Is there any updates? My 3 year old has 29.7 micrograms of lead in her blood. I'm super worried
quetzalcoatul1 so what's gonna happen next to your child
Frankie B.S I don't even know. I am waiting for the blood tests. Then I'll test the water and paint and possibly the dirt. I going to have to quit my permanent job to get a higher paying job to move them out. I'M VERY WORRIED AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO...😯
quetzalcoatul1 Thanks I didn't tell my girls doctor yet because we don't have the money to pack up and just move any thing I can do to get ride of the laed
Frankie B.S my daughter's blood test came to 11.7 micrograms per deciliter instead of the 29.7 micrograms. It's not in her bones thank God and she is mild anemic so the docs gave her vitamins c with iron. They said she will be ok ☺
Stay safe. My heart goes out to you and your kid.
My 10 month old came back with a 5.8 level a couple days ago I just got her blood drawn today I'm am so worried.😖
I’m in this current situation ! Level 6 for my one year old during his test and I’m curious what happened? I’m so worried! We’re also getting a test redone
Update? My daughter tested at 34 today 😭
Any updates?
No sound
My one year old has a level of 23. I want to die 😭
💓
My one year old is at an 8 it's a terrible hopeless guilty feeling, how is your baby doing?
Logan Cochran my daughter has a 19 I get the inspection next week. I’m such a failure to have let this happen
Start buying bottle water if can. Make city pay for it. Protect your family make sure toys walls floors do not have lead paint peeling off.
Yoraisa how is your child? I found out my daughter has a lead level of 14 and I am so heartbroken
with hella weed plants all over his shirt....
Your point?
That shirt is sweet.
lead poison means Pb2O3 I. e. Leadoxi
