One of the reasons I didn’t write this summer is because I was not feeling well and was very tired- so tired I think I could have slept 24/7 and still not gotten enough sleep…that’s right I am pregnant! We are very excited…hoping for a girl but will be happy with whichever comes along. We find out later this month which it is. I can’t wait! :-) 

My youngest had his well-check and he told our pediatrician that he was going to be a big brother. Well then the vaccination issue reared it’s ugly head. See I had put off all the boosters for the kids for a few years now. After researching I just wasn’t sure if I wanted my kids to put all those chemicals in their bodies, knowing how one of my children react to chemicals! So I have only gotten 2 in the last 3 years. One for the oldest so he could go to high school. The other I let the doc fear-force me into getting. It was for the youngest and was just the whooping cough portion of the booster. So at this visit the doc basically said I had to vaccinate (especially with a new baby on the way) or get out—not his exact words but that was the indication behind them. He gave me a book to read about non-vaccinated injuries and sent me on my way. Well I read the book. Funny how most of it didn’t even come close to applying- Such as the woman who has problems because of polio…but she caught it before there was a vaccination- when it was still spreading in the USA. Polio is has been considered eradicated since the 1980s. Or the story about the family who delayed their vaccinations and then went overseas. Or, my favorite, (sarcasm intended) the flu vaccination ones. Yeah like I want to shoot my kids full of mercury so they have a 3/million chance of not getting a flu that in very rare cases causes more than just a mild flu. The flu vaccine is made the year before it is needed. They don’t know which strain is going to be floating around-- they guess! So I go home and start researching again. The stuff I am finding out is ugly! Nasty! The things they put in the vaccines! {Shuddering here} And on top of that there have been some recent studies on how certain chemicals that are in the vaccines effect the brain. I just cannot see how any parent, after reading, researching, and investigating like I have can then say yes I want my kid to have them. Even if you don’t believe the studies of injuries and only see the list of ingredients…that alone would make me not agree to it. 

As I was reading and watching videos about the way it can affect the brain they went into the different injuries or issues you could have that have been linked to the vaccines. I have believed for many months now that that whooping cough vaccine that I let the doc talk me into caused my youngest to suddenly develop asthma. He had never had any signs of it before, has no family history of it, and then a couple months after the vaccine he suddenly has it? Well in the research one of the things linked to vaccines is asthma. Imagine that! It also listed language development as an area of the brain that is damaged. Well when the youngest was much younger he was talking –not necessarily sentences but words. All the sudden he couldn’t talk at all. We had to take him to a specialist who taught him sign language and then worked on verbal skills. She diagnosed him with apraxia.  Basically he couldn’t out the sounds together. At the time I didn’t think anything of it but after watching that video and reading some reports I think it was caused by the vaccine booster he had received. He had been saying full words and some words together and then he goes to not being able to say any words?? Don’t tell me that doesn’t sound suspicious! And on top of that they cause autoimmune related issues and food allergies...guess who had autoimmune issues AND food allergies??? My middle son!

So anyways I am on the lookout for a new doc that will let me make decisions on which or any vaccines to give my kids…know of any good ones?

Groups call for Federal investigation of human fetal DNA/autism link in vaccines

The following was emailed to me. I found it interesting. I had never heard of this link before. Maybe you will find it interesting too.

Groups call for Federal investigation of human fetal DNA/autism link in vaccines

(Largo, FL) Children of God for Life ( www.cogforlife.org ) and Sound Choice Pharmaceutical Institute ( www.soundchoice.org ) are calling on federal officials to investigate the cause of autism in children who have received vaccines produced using aborted fetal cell lines.

Past studies have focused on the use of thimerosal in vaccines as reason for the rise in autism. However, despite the removal of this preservative, autism continued to rise, leaving many to assume there was no link between vaccines and autism.

“Change-points in the rise of autism do not coincide with Thimerosal in childhood vaccines,” stated Dr Theresa Deisher, Chief Scientist and founder of Sound Choice Pharmaceutical Institute (SCPI). “However, those change-points do coincide directly with the use of human fetal cells to produce vaccines.”

In March 2010 the Environmental Protection Agency published a study identifying what is called a ‘change-point’ in US and worldwide autism rates. Taken together, the work at SCPI and the EPA publication establish three US change-points for autism disorder; 1981, 1988 and 1996, whereby some sort of exposure or environmental trigger affected children born in and after those dates. That trigger was the introduction of fetal DNA in vaccines.

In 1979, Merck’s MMR vaccine, which uses fetal cell lines in the rubella component, was licensed for use in children beginning at 12 months of age. Autism in the US began to rise in 1981, then spiked dramatically between 1983 and 1990 and again in 1996. In 1988, measles outbreaks caused a massive MMR vaccine compliance campaign which increased vaccination rates from 49% to over 82% by 1991. And in 1989, a second dose of MMR was recommended for children who were not immune to measles after only one dose. Then in 1995, the US licensed Merck’s Varivax varicella (chickenpox) vaccine. Like the MMR, Varivax also uses fetal cell lines and is given to children aged 12-18 months of age.

Deisher’s study and the EPA change-points reveal the same results for the UK, Canada, Denmark, Japan, and several South East Asian countries as the fetal vaccines were introduced to those markets.

“These vaccines are contaminated with human endogenous retrovirus K (HERVK) that is in the same family as the MMLV virus that induced leukemia in young boys in gene therapy trials”, noted Dr Deisher. “Additionally, the vaccines contain significant residual human DNA fragments that can insert themselves into vaccine recipient cells through a process known as homologous recombination. This insertion can cause genomic disruption resulting in autism.”

The early findings of Dr Deisher drew the attention of at least one other well-known scientist from the pharmaceutical industry, Dr Helen Ratajczak. In her paper published in the Journal of Immunotoxicology she noted that thimerosal was removed from the MMR vaccine in 1979.

In a March 2011 CBS news interview Dr Ratajczak stated, “That DNA is incorporated into the host DNA. Where is this most expressed? The neurons of the brain. Now you have body killing the brain cells and it's an ongoing inflammation.”

Children of God for Life’s Executive Director Debi Vinnedge was not entirely shocked by the findings.

“While we have focused primarily on the moral aspects of using aborted fetal material, the question of that DNA’s impact on autism have remained unanswered”, she stated. “It is critical that Dr Deisher’s work is explored further, especially since the FDA is well aware of the dangers of extraneous human DNA in vaccines.”

In the 2008 journal Biologicals, (pg 184-197) FDA scientists stated the danger of residual DNA in vaccines “has been debated for over 50 years, without resolution”. Those dangers include cancer, autoimmunity and genomic disruption.

More startling is the amount of DNA Deisher found in these vaccines. While the FDA guidelines allow for no more than 10ng per vial, on average the rubella vaccines contained over 140 ng per vial.

“I would call this a ticking time bomb, except in this case, autism has already exploded”, stated Vinnedge. “The CDC and FDA need to recognize the importance of this new evidence and provide real solutions for parents.”

Vaccinations & Bloodwork

So I just finished reading the book “What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Children’s Vaccinations” by Stephanie Cave. It is a very interesting and easy read. You know the saying “Hindsight is 20/20”? Well that definitely applies here. This book goes over the pros and the cons of every vaccination. It even goes into the controversial parts, like vaccinations maybe causing Autism, ADHD, etc. I told my husband that is I have another baby I would not follow the CDC’s recommended vaccination schedule. That is not to say I wouldn’t get him/her vaccinated but I would probably follow the recommended schedule in this book. There is just too many diseases/death incidents associated with the vaccinations.


It got me thinking…Maybe it is my fault that my child is ADHD…because I let the doctors give him vaccinations. From the time he could crawl he was always busier than any other child I had met but I don’t remember him having some of the emotional issues then. He was busy but he was happy. I can’t pinpoint when he changed though…I have been trying to figure it out, since reading this book, if he changed after receiving one of his vaccinations but nothing stands out. Every parent wonders at some point if they caused something in their child. One thing that will be changing is that if the doc wants to give my children a booster shot he is going to have to check his blood titers to see if they even need it. If your blood titers for a certain vaccination are so high then they are immune and they don’t need a booster shot. Most doctors don’t check these though, they just give the shot. I will also make sure that all their shots are mercury-free. Since ADHD kids are known to have high levels of mercury.

This week we go to the doc for J’s appointment. I have a list of blood work that I want the doc to run. Cross your fingers that the appointment goes well!
