Think twice before you vaccinate your child

As they wrap up promoting immunization awareness week, we say please educate yourselves before choosing to immunize your infant or child. We certainly wish we had.

Please understand that we are not against preventing diseases with immunizations, but against the frequency and quantity of them given at such a young age, especially because of the toxins they use to preserve them.

Our youngest son was sickened from his 18-month measles/mumps/rubella vaccination. Before receiving this MMR, our son could eat just about any food without allergies or sensitivities to food. Immediately after his MMR, he ran a fever for four weeks along with having diarrhea for two weeks. He lost five pounds, which was significant for this age.

He started getting sick after everything he ate. We soon found out that the thimerosal, which contains mercury, that is used as a preservative was damaging his digestion tract causing leaky gut and also attributed to some neurological issues. We’ve been to Winona, Gundersen and Mayo clinic to find the best they could do for him was to send us home with a prescription of Maalox, which unfortunately treats the symptoms and not the cause.

Little did we know that our son received lethal doses of neurotoxins (thimerosal, aluminum and formaldehyde to name just a few) in his immunizations. According to an article written by Rima E. Laibow, Medical Director of Natural Solutions Foundations from the Health Freedom USA Web site, “at a time when vaccines are becoming mandatory for infants, toddlers, children, young adults, adults and seniors, ignoring the dangers of mercury — the second most toxic substance known (its toxicity is exceeded only by the radioactive element plutonium, a single molecule of which will cause cancer in any human being exposed) — is an oversight we cannot afford for ourselves or our loved ones.”

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is involved in the investigation of what is known as the mercury/autism scandal and the government cover-up. In an article entitled “Deadly Immunity” Kennedy writes “in 1967, a study in applied microbiology found that thimerosal killed mice when added to injected vaccines.”

Also in this article, “Four years later, (Eli) Lilly’s own studies (Lilly had introduced thimerosal) discerned that thimerosal was ‘toxic to tissue cells’ in concentrations as low as one part per million — 100 times weaker than the concentration in a typical vaccine. Even so, the company continued to promote thimerosal as “nontoxic” and also incorporated it into topical disinfectants. Russia banned thimerosal from children’s vaccines 20 years ago, and Denmark, Austria, Japan, Great Britain and all the Scandinavian countries have since followed suit.”

In his article, Kennedy quotes Dr. Boyd Haley, a worldwide authority on mercury toxicity. He writes, “You couldn’t even construct a study that shows thimerosal is safe.”

Haley heads the chemistry department at the University of Kentucky.

“It’s just too darn toxic.

If you inject thimerosal into an animal, its brain will sicken. If you apply it to living tissue, the cells die. If you

put it in a petri dish, the culture dies. Knowing these things, it would be shocking if one could inject it into an infant without causing damage.”

Every immunization today, including the flu vaccination, contains this toxic chemical that is believed to be causing an epidemic in Attention Deficit Disorder, Attention Deficit-Hyperactive Disorder and autism.

We, along with Jenny McCarthy, a mother of a child who has experienced autism, have followed a protocol from the Defeat Autism Now Web site. The site was developed by doctors who have children who were sickened by immunizations. Thank God for these DAN doctors who are willing to stand out and speak the truth while they developed a protocol that actually has helped our son and McCarthy’s overcome injury from heavy metal toxicity.

With much prayer and petition, the truth will soon be made known. Thanks to the DAN doctors and McCarthy for giving us a voice. Please educate yourself before immunizing.

If this saves one child it will be worth it.
