My daughter will be going into kindergarten this fall and is due shots, Gabe's last shots were before he was diagnosed. I just want to cry at the thought of injecting my children with the same shots that come from companies that lie in the wake of an epidemic that may have been responsible for creating. Could my daughter react at 4 years old? I am shooting for an excemption. Gabe is in no way getting any more shots. I do not feel the medical community has given me reason to believe that they care about the welfare of my children. <BR/>Sorry about the rant and rave :o)<BR/><BR/>KristinMom to Mr. Handsomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03664592848896720811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17425654.post-1138396662845788392006-01-27T16:17:00.000-05:002006-01-27T16:17:00.000-05:00Unlike many ASD kids, Henry seemed to exhibit his ...Unlike many ASD kids, Henry seemed to exhibit his behaviors from the beginning, rather than easily correlated with a vaccine. Still, I was uneasy when it came time for Thomas' shots. I felt like I at least could ask more educated questions, but I did ultimately go ahead and have him vaccinated.<BR/><BR/>Whooping cough went around our high school this year. My teenage daughter came down with it (the vaccine wears off) and we all had to take an antibiotic. At that moment, I felt relieved that Tommy had been vaccinated. I tell this story only to give one example of a case where the vaccine seemed like a good thing. Most of the time they do seem dangerous, and a waste of money, and unpleasant experience for our little ones.<BR/><BR/>It's probably over by now, so I hope today went ok. The pediatrician can really be a disappointment. Before everything happened with Henry, I took my ped's word as gospel.gretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16104742026667801816noreply@blogger.com
