Guest guest Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 Oh dear So sorry for your friend and especially her son Sheri At 05:48 PM 12/17/2005 +0000, you wrote: > Hi all, > I just got an email from a really good friend of mine. She was telling me that her son had croup again and this time so bad that he had to be taken to hospital and they suspect it is asthma. Well, what can I say, I am soooooo sad to hear this poor boy, who is a good friend of my son, has been damaged by vaccines as well and will have to endure all the common asthma medication that the doctor will prescribe. I have tried, years ago, to tell my friend about the dangers of vaccines but she did not want to know at all, she is terrified of all the childhood diseases and lost one of her boyfriend to an asthma attack. This has created so much fear in her and she will simply not acknowledge the link between asthma and vaccination, she maintains that her breastfeeding her son until 3 will have helped. It has, of course, the wee guy would have ended up with asthma much sooner otherwise. He has had several bouts of croup and gets steroids and lots of other suppressive ! > medicine. > I just feel soooooo helpless at not being able to help her. I suggested to give him some expressed breastmilk to give his immune system a boost but I don't know if she will, she trusts the docs too much and will comply with everything out of fear. > We nearly fell out years ago over the vaccine issue as we disagree sooo strongly about it. But I hope now she will research a wee bit more on her own and will hopefully " wake up " slowly. > I gave her lots of sympathy and hugs and suggested to keep her son off school for a while, which is not going to be hard with the Christmas Holidays coming up. Children usually don't need a lot to recover, lots of TLC and time, but not much medicine if you just listen to their body and respect them. > Just felt I needed to share this as it really bothers me right now. I don't know what else to suggest to my friend and I hope she will start to think differently now. Why does it always have to come to this before parents put 2 and 2 together? I think the guilt can be so strong sometimes that parents deny any responsability even if they know there is a connection between their child's condition and the vaccines. > It is easier to just get a quick fix from the docs and get on with life... > My friend has got A LOT of learning to do. > I wonder if she will ask me any questions and if she does, I don't know how I will answer them without causing a huge argument... > Love, > Ingrid > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
