Why a lot of unvaccinated children die??
I stopped vaccinating my children 2 years ago, but I sm really stressed out about this. I need to be reassured that I am doing the right thing. People kept reminding me that children would die without vaccinations, they told me many children without vaccinations died when they caught the diseases. I got worried, what if they're right? My nephew got a light chicken pox but it cleared up in a few days right before CHristmas. But I was so scared for my kids' sake so we didn't go visit my family for that reason. Although my niece has not gotten chicken pox from her brother, that baffled me. I thought chicken pox would last about 2 weeks. My mom tells me that the new chicken pox vaccinations make it last shorter than before. I don't think so but I wanted to know what everybody think and I need good links because I am not good at searching for what I need to know.
Thanks and God Bless. Renee

My best advice is you have to consider the source of the information. Who is it exactly who is saying these things to you? Is it a natural health professional, medical doctor, or a friend or relative. If it isn't a medical professional, whether it be a natural health professional or medical doctor, they really aren't an expert in the subject and it sounds like scare tactics to me. So, I would just forget about what they say. In addition, what they are talking about could be referring to something 50+ years ago so it probably isn't even relevant today. My first recommendation is don't get stressed about it. You should be happy that you are more knowledgeable then a lot of people and you recognize that you have a choice about this subject and you haven't just done what someone told you to do. Rejoice in that! The next thing you should do is educate yourself further about the subject. You have to realize, which I'm sure that you do, that the traditional medical field and the natural medical field are like two different worlds. One of my natural health professionals said once that he doesn't tell parents what to do regarding vaccinations, but he educates them so they can make the right choices. As far as I know, he doesn't give his children any vaccinations. So, my best advice is to find a natural health professional that really knows the subject well and can educate you about it. I also think it would be good to read the books that have been recommended. A friend of mine just went to a lecture about it in order to make decisions for her child. I can ask her if she would like to email with you about it. One of my friends whom I use to work with never vaccinated his children. They are both in their 20's and 30's now and they are fine! The most important thing is that you want to be comfortable about the decisions that you make for your children.

Oh, but my son still has not begin eating healthy food yet. He still eats processed food, but as little as possible. My kids are still so picky, and I can't seem to change their diet without them starving. My husband keeps on sneaking them crackers the last time I tried to do that. He even threatened me divorce if I don't stop starving them! I gave up on trying to do that. My son only eats bananas and mashed potatoes for fruit & vegetables. My daughter eats more choices of both which is good. I have them on priobotics and multi-vitamin supplement for over a year now.
My sister-in-law's husband is now sick with whooping cough. Seems everybody in my in-law family are sick this week! I tried to tell them vaccinations and medicinations kill their immunity systems, but they won't listen to me. So is whooping cough that worse than chicken pox?? Thanks for trying to ease me. I'm still nervous about facing problems enrolling my son in school this fall or the next one. I hope I wont have problem with that. I'm still new at this and I don't feel knowledged enough. Thanks for the links. Still I'd like to know a lot more. I will research only when my eyes allow me to, I'm legal blind, so it's kinda hard to absorb all the information in while straining my eyesights.
The reason I'm posting this discussion is because I do know a lot of babies died. My mom had 2 siblings that died from disease back in late 1950"s I think. I remember she said her sister died of Hepabilitis? Alsodo family tree researching for years, and I have noticed a lot of infants died. Even my husband's very first aunt, Hope, died without having any bones in her body! That seems impossible but everybody kept saying it's true. When did vaccinations start??

Renee, you need to research vaccines and understand that the absence of a vaccine, does *not* equal disease. : )
A few crackers will not hurt your child - but their father divorcing their mother, will! Become a health expert, honor your husband, and trust God is my best advice.
Pertusses (whooping cough) was far more deadly in the 40s than it is today. It is treatable today, with antibiotics, but I know people who just treat it at home. Our sanitation and food is better today.
Get a waiver for your son (google your state governor's office for the form) and keep learning. : )

Renee, it isn't true that a lot of unvaccinated children die in the US. Dr. Mendelson's book is a good place to start. Also research the health of Amish children, and utter absense of autism and other disorders that the rest of the country is plagued with (the Amish are a large population of unvaccinated people living in similar conditions.)
Our 5 have never had a shot and we have never regretted it. When I hear about the chicken pox, I have no fear. 4 have had it. It used to be called a 'benign childhood disease,' which it is. : )

Renee - I understand your confusion. I stopped all vaccinations about two years ago and am continuing to research. I have decided not to vaccinate but still feel a little guilty should something happen. Coincidentally Dr. Mercola sent out an article today which discusses that yes, mercury was removed from most vaccinations but was replaced with aluminum!!!! He also provides options should you decide you want to vaccinate. The link is http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/01/27/mercu...
Good luck .... you can only do the best that you can do!! Remember that. You're doing great .... and we're all here to support you regardless of what you decide, Mel
