Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 I don't know if a day will ever come that vaccines aren't a hot topic here or anywhere in the world. Last night I watched the Colbert Report and he had the opposing side on (ie: reasons to vaccinate) and there are blogs like this one that even reference the blog you just posted http://blog.drwile.com/?p=3591 And apparently you can watch the event they hosted that they took down here http://blog.drwile.com/?p=3528 (I didn't watch it but just found this on a 2 second search on Google) We as parents hold the responsibility to our children to protect them and be educated to proceed with what we feel is in their best interest. I believe the best way of doing this is not to fall into fear tactics or hype. In general I try to stay clear of any doctor or individual who is only one sided and can't see the other point of view because I believe both sides have their strong points....so what do I believe? My view is the same -that whether you vaccinate your child or not is a personal decision between parents and their child's doctor who they hopefully trust. I myself am not anti vaccine -but I am against the overuse of drugs that is going on today which is seen in part in antibiotic use. There is no doubt that there are strong points to both sides -and there is the middle road which is where parents do vaccinate, but choose vaccines without thimerosal and spread out the vaccines to vaccinate older when possible. I do not view vaccines as the main cause of autism and apraxia -but I do believe back when my son got his high fevers which I later learned from medical records was after his 3rd Hep shot that it probably was due to his vaccine as back then there was thimerosal in that vaccine. You can visibility see the difference in my son's tone and response before and after the fevers which are mentioned in The Late Talker book. But again I don't believe it means that everyone should stop vaccinating because to me death is worse than apraxia or autism- and some of the conditions we protect our children from are still out there in the world -some still in the US, and yes there are pockets of outbreaks which may or may not be due to less parents vaccinating but clearly brings greater risk to those that are not vaccinated either way. I have written this blog on this topic a few weeks ago http://pursuitofresearch.org/2011/01/09/dr-wakefield-attacked-potentially-causin\ g-thousands-of-birds-to-die/ but as you can tell from reading it I blame far more environmental toxins and assaults for my son's apraxia than I do vaccines. I just believe the vaccine was the final straw for him for an already compromised system- and if you don't know what I mean -this http://pursuitofresearch.org/2011/01/09/a-tale-of-dead-birds-and-black-ooze-in-n\ j/ is the main reason we moved from NJ- and in my opinion either there was an attempted cover up to downplay the severity of what was going on -or we elected complete morons to office. Either way -where I used to live you honestly could have gone from block to block and have found at least one child with autism or apraxia....and that included those parents that did not vaccinate their kids. In fact I know through my sister in law who is a chemist at J & J that her friend's one child was diagnosed with autism -so after doing research they didn't vaccinate their second child and he has much more severe autism than the older child. I got a private email from some poor nanny who is heartbroken because the child she cared for was just diagnosed with apraxia and when he was a baby he rolled from the changing table to the floor (carpet) and all were informed -the child was checked and no head injury....but she wanted to know if that incident could have caused the apraxia -she was wracked with guilt. I of course told her that I agree with her parents that she needs to stop blaming herself -we don't know what is causing this dramatic rise in the children for previously rare neurological disorders, but if every child that got a bump or fell developed apraxia we'd probably all have it! The point is we all have to stop looking for blame so much that we forget that these conditions may be due to a number of factors -we certainly today are living in a much more toxic world and our diets to put it bluntly are disgusting for the most part- high fat, high sugar, synthetic garbage and we fear things like essential nutrients as I write here http://pursuitofresearch.org/2011/01/28/taco-bell-eat-first-ask-questions-later/ But any one of us that has a strong belief can find a blog that supports that view. The trick is doing enough research to find balance and objectivity...as well as a common thread amongst many studies. To me removing the thimerosal was a very good thing because it's my opinion that for the most part kids today with apraxia are NOT as severe as they were a decade ago when my son was diagnosed. That's what I believe. ===== Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Hi Sebrina,  I look back at my daughter's pictures and see how she got slower and slower in progression after every vaccine. I did not realise all the issues with vaccines at the time and so she got vaccinated. Doctor's in Canada really push vaccines. My dad had gotten the flu and pneumonia vaccine in 2000 and got Guillian-Barre syndrome. He had to go to a rehab hospital and had to re-learn how to walk. He was in the rehab hospital for about 4 months full time and then 2 months on and off. Thank God he recovered !  Demi From: Sebrina <sunmamma@...> Subject: [ ] Vaccines.. Has anyone seen this?

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Sebrina--i am glad they finally put soemthign like this together--- Thank you for posting it. Vaccination is a highly debated and highly political topic. It is also one of the most profitable Pharmaceutical endevours--because they are not really required to prove anything--not that it actually works--not that it is safe--they can market one vaccine after another and not be held accountable at all--and they realy are not----they've made sure of that --the laws put the burden of prof in the patient's court to prove that they were injured by a vaccine--and due to the way injuries can hapen and how injury is determined and what attributions ar emade--few medical profesionals venture out to risk their license and say the vaccine was at fault. So such " proof " that rarely hapens--though we've had a few major break throughs recently-with Hanah Polling with a neurologist father and lawyer mother being the most publicized one.. There are a lot of other resources out there for parents who care to step outside the box and think a little before blindly following pediatricain's advice for any treatment --not just vaccines. What they do not know is that a lot of those pediatricians can lose their license if they do not tell you to vacci nate--or even if they ahve a lot of unvaccinated children in their case load---they can be questioned as to why and it means they ar enot following the AMA/CDC guidelines--for which they can be reprimended. If your chld gets injured from vaccination--most injuries are not immediate or obvious but can unfold over the course of years--right when your child gets diagnosed w/ADD/ADHD come school age or with a learning dissability. Others become autistic /metabolically and immunologically damaged right away or witin weeks--months. It varies--but those who believe bvaccines are not what they are held to be---say the potential for damage is there for everyone----the degree and the affected systems vary--it all depends on the genetic make up--existing toxic body burden, ability of the child to detoxify/or NOT, nutritional status---and so on. It should not surprise parents that a thorough document like this has been finally put out and that there are so many reputable medical professionals endorsing it-----many more whose names do not appear here of course---it is a growing concern when one in 6 children admitedly has a learnign disability according to public school records--OFFICIAL RECORDS--and this really means it is more like 1 in 4 becuase many kids are private/home schooled--esspecially those with disabilities--and it is actually quite hard to get a learnign disability diagnosis--i know my daughter has the speech disability--but the learnign one will take years perhaps--she is also dyslexic we suspect--but not severly --so she will most likely not be considered to have a learnign diissability until 3-5th grade when they will no longer be able to deny it-if I leave it up to them. The point is-neurological, immunological and metabolic disorders are on the rise--that cannot be denied--they ar eon the rise in the young and the old especially--but yoiung dults are increasingly affected to. Vaccines may not be the only factor-there are plenty of other toxins to worry about---- Watch ken Kook's -- " 10 Americans " ---if you've not already done so http://healthychild.org/live-healthy/video_library_comments/10_americans_an_inco\ nvenient_truth_for_toxics_health/ So vaccines definately need to be reexamined-- improved constnatly--made safe and effective and and if somethign goes wrong--the manufacturers should be held accountable--not the public compensating the injured parties with public money. And they should definately not mandated for everyone----but that's how the money is made--when the lobyists convince the gvt. to mandate them and they insurance payes, Medicare/medicaid pays --no one questions need, efficacy or safety--everyone is just buldozed to acdept them as the absolute thruth--and nothing should ever be considered as that-particularly when there is so much evidence pointing to the contrary--no matter how they tried to hide it and discredit those who bring forth such proof. So you asked for an opinion--I gave you my honest one. Every parent should read, educate him/herself and make informed haelth decisions always--after carefully examining both sides. Our children's health is our responsibility so we owe it to them to not blindly trust--but read, learn, think critically--discuss these things with other parents and learn from their experiences--and chjhallenge our pediatricians---to provide proof--yes, PROOF of vaccine safety--long term--not just for 10 days after the way vaccines are usually tested and the ones who get sick are excluded from the trial claming they were sick before and shoudln't confuse the issues---i have a research background and always try to go to the research methodology--sample choice--how placebo was chosen/adminstered/attrition---and i can vouch for not having yet seen a convncing research that proves any vaccine is safe--NEVER. And always follow the money-see who has funded the research-what are their affiliations--who provides their funding?--these questions usually explain many of the contradictions and results that seem to contradict parental evidence and independent research results--whic are tereafter--not replicated. But who is trying to replicate it--are they trying to disprove it-or truly replicate it?--these questions soemhow are never answered and many invalid " research " is then presented as an absolute truth. There is no such thing. But every parent needs to think and decide for themselves after carefully examining both sides--and only then--and not allow themselves to be intimidated or bullied even by medical professionals who also blindly follow what they are told. Our children's health is just too importnat to not understand what is at stake here--and what all our options are to keep them healthy and thriving. And believe me there are options--healthy nutrition and supplements-avoidence of toxic exposures --be they from food, water, environment, hygene and hosehold products, medications or vaccines-we ahve to stop blindly following and read labels--understand what they say--what those substances do in our bodies and ask more questions if we don't---it is a continuous research project but well worth it--just like healthy food--even if it doe stake longer and is not as cheap as fast fod and refined carbs in products with indefinite shelf life--like High fructose Corn Syrup products or the the MC s Burger buns that never die it seems--or the Taco Bell beef that is mostly GMO corn/soy and other fillers and only 35% beef--and even that is beef raised withGMO hormones and antibiotics--do we really want stuff like that in our child?--These are the questions we need to ask ourselves. it's a lot of work--but staying healthy is all worth it.
