Brandy Mae was a healthy girl until she received her shots. She died at almost 18 months of age. I was brain washed by our pediatricians to believe that the vaccines would make her big and strong and protect her from all diseases. I was never told there was a risk, and back then I wasn't told I had a right and there were no waivers to sign.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;After she died, we educated ourselves and continue to do so. We are fortunate to have two more children completely vaccine free. I have two brothers completely vaccine free, and two nephews completely vaccine free. I have another niece/nephew on the way that will be vaccine free as well. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Educating before vaccinating is worth it! It can save your child's life. I only wish the information would have been out there in 1993. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Dr. Mercola is one of the very few physicians I have come across that is willing to speak up and honestly about this issue. I applaud him and the work he has done.&lt;br&gt;Thank you Dr. Mercola&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=88858" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Shocking Documentary Will Convince You to Stay Away From Vaccines For Good</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/01/29/Shocking-Documentary-Will-Convince-You-to-Stay-Away-From-Vaccines-For-Good.aspx#88856</link><pubDate>Thu, 22 Feb 2007 23:30:27 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:88856</guid><dc:creator>Bigman</dc:creator><description>Our children (now 18 and 16) were never vaccinated, they remain in good health...and have never been treated (drugged) for an active ear infection.

Four years ago, when I started the quest for info, many people thought I was insane. People looked at me like I was a child abuser. These people included&amp;nbsp;my parents and my husbands. When I told my doctor that I wasn't vaccinating she looked at me and said I was crazy, and putting my child at great risk. She&amp;nbsp;was the same doctor who told me that because the health food industry wasn't regulated, she wouldn't&amp;nbsp; use any of it "not even on her dog".&lt;br&gt;I stuck to my guns, she happily dropped me as a patient. My second doctor, was just as persistent with my second child. He actually gave me the paperwork that comes with the vaccine to try to change my mind. &lt;br&gt;His mistake. The whole thing was warnings on side effects.&lt;br&gt;Both my children were breastfed for two years, and are treated with homeopathic medicines. My family is on my side now, it was my sister who sent me this video. &lt;br&gt;I made the right decision for me. I was once asked by a friend to convince his wife not to vaccinate. I will not do that. This decision was so personal, and could only be made by a person who has done enough research to be completely comfortable with their decision.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I also wanted to say to moo..&lt;br&gt;Tetanus needs very specific conditions. If you watch all cuts and scratches, monitoring that they are healing from the inside out, keep them clean&amp;nbsp;and disinfected&amp;nbsp;(tea tree oil), you should be okay. If all else fails and&amp;nbsp;you do end up&amp;nbsp;with a tetanus infection, there is a&amp;nbsp;tetanus salve that can be applied at the hospital. It can kill tetanus without&amp;nbsp;all the side effects of a vaccine.&amp;nbsp;&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=88850" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Shocking Documentary Will Convince You to Stay Away From Vaccines For Good</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/01/29/Shocking-Documentary-Will-Convince-You-to-Stay-Away-From-Vaccines-For-Good.aspx#88849</link><pubDate>Fri, 16 Feb 2007 19:12:41 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:88849</guid><dc:creator>moo_203</dc:creator><description>&amp;nbsp;i was never vaccinated as a child ( i'm 66) when i was in about the 4th grade&amp;nbsp; a program was instituted in my&amp;nbsp;school for mandatory vaccination.. while standing in line for my "shots" upon hearing the ones who had gone before me crying, i became frightened and went and hid in the cloak room.&amp;nbsp;i refused to attend school on the follow up shots.i did have measles and chicken pox but none of the diseases they were vaccinating for at that time. but as i grew into adulthood i had to have a tetanus shot each time i had injured myself and still do as i never had the series. i guess my question is: should a parent vaccinate against tetanus as children are always getting hurt?&lt;br&gt;moo&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=88849" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Shocking Documentary Will Convince You to Stay Away From Vaccines For Good</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/01/29/Shocking-Documentary-Will-Convince-You-to-Stay-Away-From-Vaccines-For-Good.aspx#88848</link><pubDate>Thu, 15 Feb 2007 22:54:39 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:88848</guid><dc:creator>Stephen_203</dc:creator><description>Among many of the best and the brightest in our society, there seems to be a disconnect between their ordinary discrimination and the caution with which they regard high tech medicine. The richest, most well educated, and powerful people, almost entirely bow down to the medical gods. That is, when they go to a doctor they leave their discrimination at the door. Vaccines are the most obvious example. The claims of the medical prelates do not match the reality of health in our country. While more and more vaccines are developed for more and more diseases, the population continues to get sicker, their immune systems continue to fall, and the incidence of contagious diseases (which vaccines are supposed to prevent) continues to rise. The medical doctor's response is more vaccines. The result, other than the increasing sickness, is a kind of mental paralysis in which common sense goes out the window and the most bizarre treatments are regarded as reasonable medicine.&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=88848" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Shocking Documentary Will Convince You to Stay Away From Vaccines For Good</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/01/29/Shocking-Documentary-Will-Convince-You-to-Stay-Away-From-Vaccines-For-Good.aspx#88846</link><pubDate>Thu, 15 Feb 2007 19:35:36 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:88846</guid><dc:creator>Cara_Shelton</dc:creator><description>I struggled with whether or not to immunize my 2 kids in the. I felt like I was pushed up against a wall. My sister didn't have her last 2 immunized because of severe allergies. However, I succomed to the fear of the pediatrician who said it would be "all my fault" if my kids got one of these diseases. Now, I often wonder with regret why my son struggles with dyslexia, hyperactivity, and asthma ... and my daugter is behind her peers in preschool and has trouble with her bowels. Really makes one wonder. Raw milk and mangosteen juice has helped my son's asthma tremendously. I pray that God has mercy on some of our parental decisions and heals our children.&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=88846" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Shocking Documentary Will Convince You to Stay Away From Vaccines For Good</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/01/29/Shocking-Documentary-Will-Convince-You-to-Stay-Away-From-Vaccines-For-Good.aspx#88844</link><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2007 20:33:26 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:88844</guid><dc:creator>Leesh</dc:creator><description>I have more of a question.&amp;nbsp; What are a parents rights in the state of CA if they don't want to vaccinate their children?&lt;br&gt;

irrational health decisions.&amp;nbsp; My point being that fear of disease,
not informed decision making is most often the motivation for vaccinating.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
I believe that one of the best decisions that my wife and I made was
not vaccinating our four children.&amp;nbsp; I was blessed to have my
chiropractor encourage me to look into vaccination before it was too
late and I could not take the decision back.&amp;nbsp; The decision was
made when evidence was lacking regarding the safety and efficacy of
vaccination. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Christopher Kent, DC (who has authored articles on this site) has four
recommendations for giving kids a great start: 1) Breast feed for at
least one year.&amp;nbsp; 2) Raise the child in a loving environment.&amp;nbsp;
3) Regular Chiropractic adjustments.&amp;nbsp; 4) Avoid vaccinations.&amp;nbsp;
Along with proper nutrition and exercise, my kids are some of the
healthiest
kids I know.&amp;nbsp; Their strong host resistance is not from medicines
and vaccinations, but a healthy, well rounded lifestyle.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
I was told by a mentor "Spend at least as much time researching
vaccination as you would researching the new car you want to
buy."&amp;nbsp; Our children deserve at least that much.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt;
