Are there any autistic Christian Scientists?

Since many people believe autism is caused by the mercury-based preservatives that were in childhood vaccines and, since CSs don't believe in vaccines but rely on spiritual healing and prayer, I was wondering if there has been any study to see if CSs have had any autistic children or what the percentage is in comparison to those who do allow their children to be vaccinated. (please forgive the run-on sentence)

Autism is not strictly from the mercury content inside of children's vaccinations, so I'm sure that there are some cases of children of CS's having it. Although I will agree that it is probably a much lower percentage.
