Guest guest Posted June 6, 2003 Report Share Posted June 6, 2003 This will be a very quick intro. I am a mom of 3 children. One 7, one 4 1/2 and one forever 2years 3 months. Our youngest died last October during a 3+ hour seizure. She showed signs of neurological damage the morning after her 2nd round of shots. She went into Status 8 days after her shots. No history of seizures in her or either side of our families. Her seizures continued and she developed many health difficulties. Through it all she was a bright shining spirit and was up until her death. Initially I was convinced that her seizures were shot related. I was of course steered away from that connection by ALL medical professionals we encountered. Yet we literally ran out of tests to diagnosis what " it " was. We never received a diagnosis. Now after her death I again have returned to the shots. A clearer head (more sleep now) has allowed me to see things a bit better. She was severely altered in a negative way by her vaccinations and died as a result. Now I am very active and outspoken about our experience. We are in a rare position to prove that Adverse Reactions DO EXIST! Not every child that has an adverse reaction can say that there were NO tests left to " rule in something else " . I have testified before our state health dept & legislature this session in regards to the health dept trying to add chickenpox & pneumococcal to the state (MN) schedule. I received an amazing amount of press coverage and am thankful that my " 15 minutes of fame " went towards something good and worthwhile. I have learned though that it is a very tough battle to stop the trend. I am going to " lurk " for awhile. You all put out a tremendous amount of emails. Much reading to do. Thank-you all for being out there. It is always nice to link up with others of a like mind. Blessings, Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
