Hi Everyone,

I wanted to start a dialogue and forgive me if this is truly an off-topic. I

think it fits here because it is about disease and how we help our little ones

stay as healthy as possible. When I decided not to vax our 8 month old son, I

was under the false illusion that he would *never* be sick and remain

continually healthy with a strong immune system. That theory has been tested as

he is now ill for the second time. The first with Roseola a month ago and now a

pretty bad case of the flu. I now understand the benefits of disease in building

our immune system and response and even more importantly about how suppression

with Tylenol, Ibupforen and other pharmaceuticals don't work in the best natural

way and can even be fatally dangerous! Before I never questioned-with my

daughter, over the counter meds were my best friend whenever she became sick

which was often. So here I am with my son and have yet to give him any over the

counter junk and we try to avoid our Ped whenever

possible. We have suffered together through his fevers and symptoms. Now, he

has had a fever of 100 for 5 days, he is not bfeeding much or eating any table

food, acts as if he is in a lot of pain, has restless sleep, has a lot of

discharge from the eyes and one ear, has an extremely runny nose, is congested

with a cough that is rattling in his chest and is inconsolable. He rally's for a

few hours in the morning and afternoon and it feels like his fever breaks, but

then the night holds the same symptoms. This was happening on a full family

vacation over Thanksgiving and I was attacked for not giving him Tylenol and

letting nature take it's course. I stood my ground but of course was second

guessing myself-I would anyway because I hate to see them in pain. I am having a

hard time with knowing when to draw the line and go the allopathic route, even

if a little, or not. When do you go to the doctor? A natural approach is new to

me so I am not totally comfortable yet, although

I fully believe in this approach and want to stick with it. Of course we saw a

Homeopath today which I am thankful for, but what if we don't have the right

remedy or it takes a while to do its healing? How do I comfort my son in the

meantime and help progress the healing?

You all are the only people in my life that support this way of living and

thinking. I know from hearing from you that you have been in my position before

and still go there at times. How do you stay strong when everyone is against you

and your child is feeling horrible? When do you know when to go to the doctor or

take meds?

Thanks for listening to my rant! I have had 4 days of no sleep and just need a

release and support!

Also, can someone forward the info on what type of Vit C is best and where you

can purchase it? I can't find that info in my files...

:)
