Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 For all the moms in the group, I was wondering how you come to know the truth about vaccines. I myself found out right before my daughter turned 2 (she had all her vaccines until then...so angry and sickened by that) I was one of those people who never questioned it because I was brainwashed to think it is normal and a good thing for chilldren/adults.And thought whatever doctors do it right. Then one day, (the same day my mom took her for her shots right before turning 2) I researched it online and WOW, talk about angry and disgusted! I was also angry at myself for not researching it before. I used to research just about everything online while I was pregnant. But at least its better late then never. I kept praying that none of this poison affects my daughter in any way and also prayed for other helpless children. I did talk to many moms about it, but it seems like most people just dont believe it. Sad. Most people I met didnt know the truth so its good to know that are so many moms here that do know. I would just like to know how you all found out. Sabina ************** One site keeps you connected to all your email: AOL Mail, Gmail, and Mail. Try it now.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 After my 7 yo got her 2 mos shots and then developed a UTI and nearly ended up in the hospital. She got mega doses of antibiotics and just stopped developing. Her whole personality changed-our happy-go-lucky child became cranky and miserable and she developed MAJOR sensory issues and had SEVERE speech and language delays. We JUST got our PDD-NOS (autism spectrum) diagnosis a year ago and I fully attribute it to her vaccines. It was a long journey, but thanks go out to our DAN! for pointing out the connection w/the vax...we now do NO vax at all and I have had 2 other children since then...neither has been stuck ever and never will be unless THEY choose to. a **************One site keeps you connected to all your email: AOL Mail, Gmail, and Mail.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 trinnea... my heart goes out to all your friends, especially the one who's baby died. It just makes me so sad and angry to hear this. Do you all know who is really behind this evil? Thanks to all who have shared their stories so far.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 From other people giving me half truths. I remember seeing things in the news about the hep b vaccines and reactions. When I started vaxing my son he was premature and he was always behind in all his milestones. When I stopped vaccinating him at his 1 year visit, he quickly began to get better and stopped getting asthma. I attributed that also to my diet change, not giving him baby food from the store, etc. Than I stopped and I vaxed him again, and that year he got sick again. He didn't do any better. When I got pregnant, I look into the issue more deeper and I didn't vax my son with boosters, the varicella, or the new mandates they have here in Jersey. I learned by watching my first born grow and become ill as a result of the vacciness. I learned now the difference between my 6 month old, and my 4 year old.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 I kept getting those magazines for new mothers, some from the hospital. Every one had articles about autism and the signs to watch for. I remember wondering what was going on with autism. I had been a nanny and preschool teacher in the late eighties and early nineties and never heard of a single case. That got me wondering. Then I saw two episodes of Oprah that were about vaccines. I joined this group after the first one and started reading, reading and more reading. Also crying, I too put my son through three rounds of vaccines, including a hep b when he was just 3 days old.  Marie www.slothbob.com Vaccination Clothing http://www.cafepress.com/slothbob/6237169  ________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 When you know better, you do better. I remember being a new mom again w/ #2 and the nurse saying, 'oh you need to be sure to protect against hep b' and what is that " oh it damages the liver " ..and I remember swaying and saying " oh well. we definitely want that then " .. ohhh dumbdumbdumb. By jessica I had learned more and I refused it and dh looks at me and I waited til the nurse was out of the room and explained to him why and what it was.. and what the risks of it were (and what the disease mainly hits) and he's like 'oh no. we're not doing that one " .. but I still had a bit of a battle to go b/c he was in the " if you won't vax the kids, I will. You will not endanger my children like that " . yeah. I remember that argument too. that was the lie. Back off and buy time. 'I'm not saying NO ever.. I'm saying no right now .. I need to learn more and research more " but inside I was like 'no way in hell is a needle coming at my kids again! " We're bad if we don't. that is the lie that is pushed. How can a responsible parent not vax? And nobody gets suspicious that we all think the same thing on the same subject? Makes me roll my eyes. You can't find anybody anywhere with the very same opinion on the very same subject about anything else but vaccines?? This is what it seems like anyway. The product has been very well marketed.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Someone asked me if my son's health problems happened after vaccines. I never suspected anything until then and verified through his health records that was indeed when it started. Then I started to read everything I could get my hands on.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Mine came after gradually becoming disenchanted with medicine in general. That started with the birth of my first, which was a wretched experience. My second birth was much better, but shortly after that, I discovered people still homebirth, and some do it unassisted. That totally clicked for me. I visited many message boards centering around UC, and began exploring other parenting choices that UCer's make. At first, I thought they were nuts for not vaxing. Why wouldn't you vax? Then one day, I had the paradigm shift: why WOULD you vax? Totally turned things around when I realized the default is to leave something alone, and the burden of proof is on those who want to change it. Unfortunately, my oldest is pretty much fully vaxed, and my second through six months. My third has had none, and no one in our family has ever had a flu shot. Before I had my big a-ha moment I just described, my daughter had her 6 month appointment. I was still feeling ambiguous about vaxes, and it honestly didn't occur to me to postpone or cancel that appointment. So I went ahead and let them vax her. Immediately afterward, I picked her up to comfort her, and noticed the band-aid had come off, and there was now a small spot of blood on my shirt. On the way home, it hit me so hard how symbolic that was. I literally had her blood on me for making that choice. That sealed the deal for me: no more vaxes until I was completely comfortable with them. And then my whole outlook changed and I haven't looked back.

I know don't bring this subject up unless i see that the person is somewhat open to hear the other side; most aren't. I too find that most people don't believe that vaccines are bad and all my close and even distant acquaintances fully vax all children without questions. I have never came across or heard of anyone in my circle of people to have bad reaction from any vaccines. So many ask me, what bad reactions, what side-effects? I think people are skeptical of anti-vax rhetoric because they see that there aren't any childhood diseases present, plus they don't see any bad reactions from vaccines so they go and get them done like good citizens. They have never seen any side-effect after their children received vaccines . I am not sure who is right and who is wrong in this huge vaccine controversy but decided to be cautious and stay away from them for now and the future will unveil itself...

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Wow--great aha moment. You were very smart to listen to that. You're right, the general feeling if you have no reason to question vaccines is why not do them? I know I wouldn't have listened if someone suggested to me not to vax.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 These people also drug their kids so you don't see some of the reactions. I know so many people with kids with allergies, asthma, etc. that think it's normal that it doesn't occur to them that, yes, they've seen reactions. They just don't realize it.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 My infant and I were both injured by vaccines in 2007. I then began my research after he was 6 mo. old. Thankfully, I did refuse all of the new vaccines that came out within the last 10 yrs (I also have a 14 yr old). If I hadn't, I shudder to think of what could have happened. Instead, I am dealing with him on the Autism spectrum (not surprised after his partial seizures and high-pitched screaming right after the vaccines) and I suffered partial hearing loss from the rubella vaccine. My hearing has been restored thanks to herbal medicine (20 long months) and he is on his way to recovery.... I actually started my research beginning with the package inserts and wanted to vomit when I read that they don't know if they cause cancer, alter your DNA, or impair your fertility because studies have not been done. Then I researched the ingredients and haven't stopped looking for answers since! If only Moms would talk to their daughters (compare vaccine notes). Mothers that I talk to are shocked that the number of vaccines have tripled since the 80's. They are also shocked to find that their newborn can receive the same dose as a 7 yr old child or even an adult with some vaccines!! Why don't doctors/nurses question this alone?? It is totally insane. > > For all the moms in the group, I was wondering how you come to know the truth > about vaccines. > > I myself found out right before my daughter turned 2 (she had all her > vaccines until then...so angry and sickened by that) I was one of those people who > never questioned it because I was brainwashed to think it is normal and a good > thing for chilldren/adults.And thought whatever doctors do it right. > > Then one day, (the same day my mom took her for her shots right before > turning 2) I researched it online and WOW, talk about angry and disgusted!

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Hi Katarina Just to name two common problems associated with vaccines. You don't know anyone who has or their kids have Asthma or  Allergies ? I have teenagers that work for me. They always have colds. Many have Asthma or Allergies. About 12 or 13 years ago, I had four of the healthiest looking girls working for me and all four had Asthma. When I was a teen I didn't know one kid who had Asthma and I went to four schools. Not to say it didn't exist, but it must have been rare. This was in the 40s and 50s. A note on bringing up vaccine danger to people who have closed minds. I do it all the time. Not that I expect to change their mind but let them know their is a opposite opinion of theirs. Who knows after they hear me, they may run across someone else , than maybe hear something on TV or read something in a paper. Soon they will wake up and join. Remember we are a growing and more vocal voice now than ever before. Folks we are like rocks. We may wear away, but we are not going away. Forget about what other people think, the truth must come out.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 This is from my introduction when I first joined this list about a year ago. I've posted it two or three times since, as well, so those of you who have read it, please bear with me. Here is my story... My decision to not vaccinate came after intense research into the subject when I was pregnant the first time. I had decided to research the subject so intensely because of personal experiences (please notice the " s " on that… plural). 1. When I was a child, I went in for a round of boosters (I believe I was eight years old). I don't know WHAT boosters I was given, but it was several of them. Within minutes of receiving the injections, I went in to anaphylaxis. I remember thinking, even as a child, that something was wrong with the shots, as the reaction was almost immediate, and very violent. I was subsequently diagnosed with chronic asthma, after not having a single respiratory problem in my life prior to those boosters. 2. Seven year ago, a friend of mine took her two-year-old, very energetic, loving, lively son in for his routine checkup, where they gave him his " shots " on-schedule. MMR was one of the many shots given that day. Within 12 hours, her son was having seizures, for which she called the doctor. The doctor said this was a " normal " reaction, and told her to give him Tylenol to help him " sleep it off " . Her son, as we all knew him, never came back to her after that day. He's trapped, to this day, in a body damaged by the very vaccines that were supposed to protect him. 3. Four years ago my best friend's seven-year-old daughter went in for her routine checkup, wherein she was given a round of vaccines. I'm not sure of everything she was given, except I know the chicken pox vaccine was in the mix, as her father had never had the chicken pox and was being forced to stay away from her for 21 days so he would not contract the disease. It was several immunizations all at once, though. That night, she developed a severe (105+) fever. When the doctor was called (they always tell you to call, not come in, if a reaction occurs… WHY?? I'm guessing it's because they know a reaction is probable and don't want their practice swarmed by parents seeking more help for the children they just poisoned, but who really knows.), his response was, again, that this is a normal reaction, and told Mom to give her Tylenol to bring down the fever and help her " sleep it off " . She progressively got worse over the next 24 hours, until Mom finally took her to Urgent Care, where she started seizing and then went into coma. An ambulance was called, and she was transported to the ER. She was diagnosed with Type I diabetes… in essence, the vaccines had attacked and killed her pancreas. The doctor said this is a " rare side effect " to vaccine, but it DOES happen. I watched alongside my best friend as that little girl lay in a coma for four days, helpless and near death, because of the very vaccine that was designed to protect her. Today that eleven-year-old girl has to inject herself with insulin five times a day… 4. A couple of months before my first son was born, another friend of mine took her healthy two-month-old in for his recommended shots, to keep him on schedule. He was injected, sent home, and within a few hours developed a severe fever. Again, Mom was told to give him Tylenol. Within a couple of hours of onset of fever, he started seizing. Doc was called again, and again told Mom this is a " normal reaction " to the shots, and to just put him to bed and let him " sleep it off " . Within 12 hours after receiving the vaccination, 9-1-1 was called; their son was dead when the paramedics got there. Not just harmed… DEAD. Diagnosis? SIDS -- but only after having to endure a lengthy investigation for child abuse (specifically " Shaken Baby Syndrome " ). They were not even allowed to grieve for their child in peace... Interesting medical article, " Multiple Vaccinations and The Shaken Baby Syndrome " , http://www.nvic.org/doctors_corner/ed_yazbak_shaken_baby_syndrome.htm. ALL of these incidents either happened to me personally or to someone I was very close with personally. It happened over a wide spread number of years, and it made me go " hmm… what's wrong with this picture? " If incidents like these was so prevalent among the few people I actually knew on a very personal level at the time, they just how wide spread are these types of things? So before my son was born, I decided to investigate the rate of vaccine reaction myself, and was astonished. I am still amazed that BigPharma is allowed to continue to use our children as guinea pigs, injecting them with toxin after toxin, after toxin. And not only can they do this legally, but they are given immunity from being held accountable when a child is injured or dies. After being ridiculed, shunned and called everything from irresponsible to being accused of neglect by family, friends and the medical community, I've made vaccine awareness my personal platform, and want to do anything I can to bring the real truth to the forefront of everyone's minds. I will not be bullied or swayed. Like Jim said, the truth MUST come out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 I am 30 and even when I was in school I remember one kid with asthma and one kid who was allergic to something. Peanut allergies? No way. Cancer or diabetes? Not a chance. In an entire school of hundreds of children, there was only 1 whole special ed class with like 3 or 4 kids, who mostly had down syndrome. I never even heard the word autism until now. Actually, before I got pregnant I had pretty much the same opinion about vaccines that most people have now, which is actually no opinion at all. I think I first came across a vaccine article on the Weston A. Price website (which greatly helped me change my eating habits for the better) and on Dr. Mercola's site. From there I quickly joined this group which has been a tremendous help. Also, one the biggest help for me was reading through the AAP and CDC websites. Their information on vaccines is so short and simple and contradicting. I would reading something on one page, and then a few pages down I would read something that would completely contradict it. So many lies on those web sites and so easy to see. At 2 months I was bullied by the doctor and husband into giving my son 4 vaccines, but at his 4 month check up I stood firm and he did not get any and never will again. In fact, his last (waste of time and money) well check up was at 6 months, he is now 20 months. If someone says to me that I am endangering my child and that he can get a horrible deadly disease if I don't vaccinate, I say... " Oh yeah, like what kind of disease? " The conversation always ends there, that is how little they know. I feel sorry for the person who would try to take me on in this subject.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 -I started questioning when I was working with children with autism and read " Evidence of Harm " . Then I discovered that a horrid chronic skin condition that I have, lichen planus, was caused by hep. B vaccination. It was all downhill from there. When I first started researching, I was thinking about doing selective/delayed vaccination - I'm so glad I learned the truth and haven't done ANY! Melinda C.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 i had a brainfart & had researched everything about pregnancy & birth, but all my research stopped after that. i trusted them, never thought twice except to request mercury free vaxes (like THAT makes a difference). my son was fully vaxed & at his 13mo shots: MMR, DTaP, IPV, he regressed during the following month. we've spent the next 3yrs trying to bring him 'back'. we've made leaps & bounds, certainly, but we should have never had to have been here in the first place. & all 'reasoning/excusing' goes out the window when you watch my son freak out over 'nothing', to watch the anger, pain, frustration in his eyes. i still remember the day i noticed the 'lights' were turned back on! that was when he was nearly 3yo! anyhoo- after his regression, i spoke to his ped who insisted it was normal development (loss of EVERYTHING is normal???) i went online to look into if this was even truly connected to the MMR (i'd heard mention it can cause reactions in sensitive children), that is when my eyes opened, i went there to convince myself that cj was special, that he was overly sensitive to it for some reason, that it was a fluke but 'here's how to fix it'. what i FOUND, was TONS & TONS of cases, reports, etc of this happening particularly with MMR, but OTHER vaxes as well! i was sickened. well, that's an understatement. he's now 4.5yo, & i still kick myself every day for bringing this on him. to look in those lost & frustrated eyes, to watch him get hurt & not react, or to touch him for a hug & he screams in agony, i blame myself. i take resposibility for damaging him & not questioning this sooner as every person should do. but i blame pharma, doctors (who DO see this shit!), nurses, etc for putting this crap out. i have a friend that has a mangled knee due to a gunshot injury. he's been in pain for YEARS now, constant chronic pain. one day his dr. told him to try this new anti-inflamatory & gave him samples. for the first time since his injury, he was pain-free & on the worst days, he only had a smidge of pain. he was beyond happy! not long after, they took this wonder-drug off the market... VIOXX if they're so worried about drugs like these causing issues, & jerk them off the market; they should automatically wonder about these vaxes. there is absolutely no excuse for not doing further investigation. their across-the-board denials are slowing but surely waking people up. more & more people are asking. i, myself have given books or book rec's to 4 parents wondering about vaxes & am about to write up an email for another one. it's slowly coming around. but it's terrible that it's taken this long to start questioning & i dearly worry about the un-health of the population by the time the truth, hopefully, fully comes out about vaxes. ~marcia~ > > trinnea... my heart goes out to all your friends, especially the one who's > baby died.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 I had a really bad feeling when the nurse came in asking to give my oldest the Hep B at the hospital, but she told me she *had* to have it for school anyway, so I might as well get it over with. I was still uncertain, but my mom and husband talked me and my exhausted self into it. I still didn't have a good feeling about it, so after I got home and a few of my senses started to come back to me, I looked into it and decided definitely not to finish the series. However, I wasn't sure what to do about the others. Then, when she was about 5 weeks old, I was watching a baby story (nothing else decent on at the time), and I watched the parents bringing in their 8-week-old newborn for FIVE shots that included even more illnesses, etc. I literally almost got sick everywhere and decided there was absolutely NO WAY my baby would go through with that. So, I started asking around a little, and it took about 4 or 5 friends/family members before I found one that said there were other \ options, and I've gone from there. I did VERY selective and delayed vaccines for my daughter at first (she had 3 DTaP and 3 IPV and 1 HIB), and that's all either of my children have received. I finalized my disgust with allopaths after dealing with thrush that wouldn't go away with meds with my son. Nystatin did nothing, and I had a bad allergic reaction to Diflucan. When we broke out less than 2 weeks later, again, they kept going between the two in spite of how many times I told them Nystatin didn't work, and I was allergic to Diflucan! I gave up and went to see a friend/neighbor I'd recently met who had 7 kids figuring she'd likely dealt with it and/or at least had something helpful to advise. Turns out she's into homeopathy and before that was herbs! So, that's all that's in my medicine cabinet now - except a few allopathic meds dh refuses to part with for himself. Plus, I figured if they couldn't even figure out something successful for yeast - you know, like dietary changes, etc - then why on earth would I trust their judgment about toxins, etc being shot directly into the blood stream of any of my children???? > > For all the moms in the group, I was wondering how you come to know the truth > about vaccines. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Intuition...... As new parents we thought we had all the information we needed in preparing for our daughter. Once she arrived and a few doctor visits later, I had a pit in my stomach and hesitation about all the scheduled vaccinations. At Josie's six-month appointment, the doctor wanted to giver her a flu shot and the several shots she already received. My mind was spinning thinking this is too many shots for a little baby. The doctor said without these vaccinations she could get sick and die. We passed on the flu shot that day, and went home to think about it. Still misinformed and misguided, my husband and I went to a clinic they were having. We walked in and saw all the people herded in this office. It was overwhelming. My husband said, " Well this is how they make a ton of money " . Our daughter got the first shot and we never went back for the second. Later I discovered that the flu vaccine still contains mercury and they are not 100% effective. I spent the next several months reading and researching for myself. I looked at the ingredients of the vaccines and decided there was no way in the world I was going to inject my daughter with those substances. I looked further and found that the risks of vaccine reaction and injury outweigh any possible benefits that vaccines claim. The more I read and discovered the more frustrated and outraged I became. Both parents and medical professionals want to protect the health of children. But the mainstream thought of the medical profession does not consider the issue of the ingredients or over vaccinating as a problem at all. This aloofness or lack of concern is a grave mistake. Doctors and government institutions that should be watchdogs seem to be steered only by the CDC without a second thought. There are too many special interests involved. The problem is that vaccines have become a big business and like all businesses they want to increase profits. How do they do that? They make more vaccines and create an ambush of a vaccination schedule that is highly toxic and damages the brain, immune system, and from birth begins antibiotic resistance. More than twenty plus years ago 1 in 100,000 children had autism. The number today is 1 in 150 autistic children. It is worth seriously examining the connections between a trend like this (and there are others) and the increase number of vaccinations. Do you want to trust the government and doctors to make decisions about your child's welfare with out you first being about to make informed judgments? A good family friend has four daughters. The youngest is the only one that grew up with a learning disability and the only one that was born after the induction of mass vaccinations. Coincidence? Are vaccines needed? In some cases possibly, but they absolutely need to be safe, effective and on a limited schedule. Parents need to be the best advocates for their children. Should we continue to blindly trust the government and our doctors to make decisions in our best interest? There are many myths about vaccinations and the diseases. Besides certain laws that apply only to government medical specialists - there is no law that enforces the mandatory use of any vaccine in the United States. Enforced medical treatment is an assault and a violation of the 14th amendment. You do have a right to say no. You have a choice. Parents need to dismantle all the information and see that there is already enough evidence that vaccines are harmful. The enormous number of children with vaccine injuries is enough evidence for me. We all have a choice. I personally will not voluntarily put anything that is toxic or potentially damaging into my daughter's developing body. In our opinion, and statistics will show, that there is more of a chance that your child will have a vaccine reaction then contract a disease. You have a choice. You can take positive action for the health and well being of your family. After all, we want the best for our children.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 In the 50's and 60's, there were no special ed rooms. There were no special ed kids. I knew one kids who used to have seizures, and everything would come to a standstill until he recovered because it was so unusual. No one carried inhalers. No one went to the nurse for their Ritalin. No one had anything more than sneezing for allergies. We were fed Kool-Aid, Twinkies and other lovely foods and we didn't get asthmatic. It's the vaccines.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 While pregnant with our fourth child my sister-in-law bought me a Mothering magazine for the homeschool article on the front cover. It also had a vaccine article.... I asked around and no one seemed to want to talk about it. Then a friend lent me a copy of Cave's book. Baby had a few shots. Then I bought Romm's Vaccinations and Mendelsohn's How to Raise a Healthy Child. No vaccines for any of us since.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 I found out just after my youngest turned 1 that he is allergic to soy, milk, wheat, peanuts and eggs. His egg allergy is severe (he got ahold of his brother's sandwich which had mayo on it and he immediately broke out in hives around his mouth and started wheezing). The RN told me he couldn't have the flu shot, but she wasn't sure about the others, so I started my own research. I was appalled at what was in them. The more I thought about it, the more sickened I became. I realized that all of his wheezing and sickness last winter coincided with his vaccines. I've spent countless hours researching every vaccine and the " deadly " diseases and never again will any of my children receive a vaccine. Every so often, I will start to doubt myself (30 years of brainwashing can sometimes be hard to overcome!), but then I just look at how well my baby is doing now, or I read one of the messages from this group, and it hardens my resolve! > > For all the moms in the group, I was wondering how you come to know the truth > about vaccines. > > I myself found out right before my daughter turned 2 (she had all her > vaccines until then...so angry and sickened by that) I was one of those people who > never questioned it because I was brainwashed to think it is normal and a good > thing for chilldren/adults.And thought whatever doctors do it right. > > Then one day, (the same day my mom took her for her shots right before > turning 2) I researched it online and WOW, talk about angry and disgusted!

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Something in my gut always told me there was something wrong with the whole concept. I remember each doctor visit as a child, it took at least 2 people to get me out of the car & then I screamed at the top of my lungs until it was " over " . Drove my mom nuts! I was fully geared up for those " dreaded " shots for my son when of all people, my mom sends me a Mothering Magazine. Inside was an article about the dangers of vaccines......That's all it took. I was 7 months pregnant at the time & began reading everything & anything I could get my hands on regarding the " other side " of the subject. The rest is history.....THANKS MOM!!!!!! > > For all the moms in the group, I was wondering how you come to know the truth > about vaccines. > > I myself found out right before my daughter turned 2 (she had all her > vaccines until then...so angry and sickened by that) I was one of those people who > never questioned it because I was brainwashed to think it is normal and a good > thing for chilldren/adults.And thought whatever doctors do it right. > > Then one day, (the same day my mom took her for her shots right before > turning 2) I researched it online and WOW, talk about angry and disgusted!
