My daughter was given homeopathic 'DPT' to counteract the effects of the

shot she received though other homeopaths are adamant there couldn't be any

one remedy that would do this because each remedy is given on an individual

basis.

As for whether a vaccinated child would be considered 'healthy' I know my

own daughter has seemingly recovered from the weakening effect the vaccines

had on her system. However I have a friend that believes that with

vaccination you either do all or do nothing. She has a daughter who was

given her first few shots but did not receive the MMR. She also has two

other unvaccinated children. When the children got mumps the unvaccinated

children did fine. The one that was vaccinated ended up in hospital with

encephalitis and has hearing loss in one ear after that episode. She

believes that had her daughter not received any vaccines her immune system

would have been able to withstand the challenge of the mumps. The

difficult thing about this case is that she can't go back and not give the

child any vaccines and see if she is right about that.

Just a thought,

Judy.
