Think about it - How many kids did you know growing up with Autism or any of these disorders? My sister is Diabetic and she was the only one that I knew. I had never heard of any of these other disorders. There were a few kids who had learning disabilities - Maybe 3 in my whole school. So why is it that there are entire classrooms (30 kids) of Autistic children for each grade at some schools? Why are 1 in 6 kids learning disabled? It is because 1 in 10,000 kids had Autism in 1982 and there were 10 vaccines. Now there are over 36 vaccines (and still adding) and 1 in 150 kids has Autism. IT IS NOT A COINCIDENCE.
What I don't understand is that if even 5 people told you that they got really bad food poisoning from a certain restaurant, I bet you would not eat there anymore. However, when over tens of thousands of parents tell you that their child got a high fever and got sick after vaccinations and then stopped talking, stopped walking, lost eye contact, started eating rocks, refused to be touched, etc. no one believes them? This is REAL. Mothers - you know your child better than anyone. You know when they are acting weird or when they aren't eating like they usually do and you know when something is wrong. Do people really think that we imagined all of this?
I know people are scared to not vaccinate because they don't want their child to get the measles, etc. I was scared too. However, the risks are WAY higher right now that your child will end up with a lifetime disorder or disability than they are of them getting the measles. I have also heard recently that there are more deaths (at least in the US) attributed to vaccines than to measles. Measles can be treated in the hospital. Autism is lifelong and heartbreaking and the average American family spends over 1 million dollars more raising an Autistic child than a typical child.
I am not even going to apologize for my rant this time. I have cried too many times after hearing about yet another vaccine injured child. When a few people died from Phenphen or Vioxx, they recalled the drugs and paid the families for their losses. The drug that Wyatt was injected with at 13 months - the MMR plus chicken pox all in one needle - was recalled for causing severe seizures. Seizures cause brain damage. Wyatt's brain was damaged - as a result, he displays signs of Autism. It is not really that hard to see the connection.
Please watch these videos. The first just has a lot of good information.
The Second is a link to a facebook page where a woman shows videos and commentary of her daughter before and after Autism. (You may have to be signed up for facebook to view) It will make you cry, and if it doesn't it should. The sad part is, there are tens of thousands of people who have been telling the same story since I believe 1991? I had heard some of these stories and should have listened. Instead, I was pushed into vaccinating by my pediatrician who said there was no link. Doctors don't know everything. They used to say that smoking was not harmful. Obviously, the long term studies proved them wrong.
There are too many Vaccines - Too soon. Spread them out. One every 6 months. Better yet - wait until they are 2 and their brain is developed. Don't vaccinate if your child is sick. Don't give them Tylenol with vaccines. Don't get pushed into vaccinating. It is YOUR child. Not the pediatrician's, not the CDC's, not the School's.
Babies are precious. Children are precious. I love all of my children. My first two were vaccinated and they have sensory problems and Autism. They also had chronic ear infections and other sicknesses. My third was not vaccinated and she has only had one ear infection in 18 months. She can say over 50 words. She follows directions. She is developing faster than most kids her age. I am not saying that she is better than any other child, but her brain has not been damaged and is able to develop as it should and as children did 20 years ago. She has not had the measles or any other disease.

I love your rants because it's everything I would love to rant about too. I just think our friends and families have taken the backseat for too long when it comes to their health care. I completely agree with you talking about researching for your tv. People research things they buy to death; cars, tvs, dogs etc but when it comes to their health care, whether it's vaccines or even giving birth most just nod and say "sure, whatever you say Dr."
I have the hardest time though standing up for this belief of vaccinations when it comes to talking about it with my friends. I haven't vaccinated and don't know anyone personally who have had children with a bad reaction to it so I feel like even though I've done the research when it comes up those around me just roll their eyes at me. I even had a friend say to me the other day that there are more children dying from measles because people aren't vaccinating- but it's a treatable desease and why didn't they get their kids to the hospital? And I'd love to know how many of those kids had been vaccinated for it. what would you suggest I say to those people when I haven't personally been affected by it?
-oh my I did rant, sorry
I've gotta meet you next time you are in SL! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this post! JaNae is right - everyone takes the backseat and thinks your nuts! Have you seen how people blog about their kids shots - holy smokes makes me want to puke... how did everyone get so brain washed - why did I do it? I did exactly what you said - just took my kids in trusted the doctor and didn't research!!!
Hey Tam! Do you have a copy of the vaccine schedule that you talked about? I am just trying to figure out how to space mine. Thanks for all your help!
