This is so much the same story that happened to me.<BR/><BR/>I think it is time to act and unite.<BR/><BR/>Sadly most people like my wife want to keep their problems to themselves, I say everyone should speak out, let them hear us.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06619922804659071274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7771487.post-62011717342367778032008-12-07T07:49:00.000-05:002008-12-07T07:49:00.000-05:00Here's what I sent:I am the mother of a vaccine in...Here's what I sent:<BR/>I am the mother of a vaccine injured child. <BR/>I accepted the flu shot while pregnant with my second daughter. I was giving no warnings about the mercury, aluminum, etc. My daughter developed a heart arrhythmia in utero after the shot, and I got the flu. She was then born a month early. The obgyn never told me that a baby developing in the uterus is a filter for all the toxins mommy takes in, such as mercury and aluminum.<BR/>The doctors proceeded to vaccinate on a regular schedule, even though she was a month early and very tiny. My daughter’s health got worse and worse, until finally she was diagnosed with borderline cerebral palsy and autism.<BR/>Using natural approaches, we continue to heal my daughter. We no longer see mainstream doctors, and we no longer vaccinate.<BR/>New Jersey, meanwhile, continues to mandate new vaccinations, with no studies to show cost effectiveness, nor effectiveness. New Jersey has no answer for why 1 in 94 children here (using old 2002 data, I’m sure it’s higher) are autistic.<BR/>Insurance covers almost nothing because it’s autism. They don’t pay for therapies, and they don’t pay for treatments. I’m sure they would pay for vaccines, but that is out of the question. Why would I risk that when I know the vaccine manufacturers have no liability, and no one will help (not the doctors not the government) once the damage is done? I’m also relatively sure they would pay for me to drug my child with some off-label psychotropic medicine. That’s also out of the question - again, side effects with little to no manufacturer liability.<BR/>Autism has been a nightmare. My daughter was abused in the autism program at her in-district school. The trauma caused her to be very violent – as a family, we were physically and verbally abused for years by her due to the school abuse. It has taken a long time, lots of money, and lots of love and patience to calm her down. <BR/>So that’s health in these United States. We’re financially broke, mentally and emotionally wiped out, and demand changes to vaccine policy.needle.and.damage.donehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09968831918601346611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7771487.post-28585711939084030222008-12-06T17:12:00.000-05:002008-12-06T17:12:00.000-05:00Bravo!
