Guest guest Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 Hi , I personally would like to know about whooping cough. Is it as scary as they say??? The cough and a child trying to breathe and the duration of the illness. New to this group, S. > > Hi Kristi -- > > Yes, I've had measles, mumps, rubella and chicken pox -- so has DH.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 I had chickenpox at 3, measles at around 4, mumps at 6, whooping cough at 5 (or thereabouts and I was vaxed too!) and although I had rubella, I don't remember when. Tbh I don't really remember any of them. I recall being very fed up at being kept in bed in a dark room with measles, I remember spilling a glass of lemonade over my bed while my granddad looked after me when I had mumps, and I recall itching a bit with CP and then falling off my tricycle and knocking a scab off my knee (still have scar now). And that's it. Very uneventful, as these things are for many, many kids who are healthy and haven't been compromised by vaccines. Oh and my mother had infantile paralysis (polio) as a child of 7. She was unable to walk for a couple of years, but subsequently made a full recovery Don't buy into the fear that the allopaths peddle. Yes, some children have a bad time of it with these illnesses, but that's life. The vast majority don't. The ones that do probably have a reason for having a bad time with theme. Sue x -- Vax- Diseases Have any of you had first hand experiences with any of the diseases they vax for like polio, measles, mumps, whooping cough, etc??

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 I have had measles and rubella in a third world country with less than stellar medical care. Mom said it was uneventful. When we moved to Canada I got the mumps, chicken pox and whooping cough. Again uneventful, except for whooping cough which makes a " nasty " sounding cough the first few weeks then peeters out over the coming weeks - and it did last roughly 100 hundred days. With the exception of chicken pox, I was vaccinated for all those illnesses - vaccine does NOT equal immunity.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 I had CP at age 13 with no complications :-) We have had WC as have my children. We all came through it with no problems. The cough did wake the kids out of a sound sleep - but, there was no vomiting, turning blue, stopping breathing, etc, etc. (This part of the " disease " lasted for 2 weeks). We figured out it was WC only after the last one to get it (my middle child who was 3) " whooped " ....by this point, he was no longer contagious and we were all on the mend. We had chiropractic adjustments and used quality herbs to help. Hubby had mumps as a child....no biggie and no problems with fertility :-) ~ > > I had chickenpox at 3, measles at around 4, mumps at 6, whooping cough at 5 > (or thereabouts and I was vaxed too!) and although I had rubella, I don't > remember when.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 I had chicken pox when I was 7 months old. My 2 older siblings had it right before me. They were 2 and 4 at the time. My older brother had measles. We all 3 had mumps. My dh and his 5 siblings all had cp, measles, and mumps. I was given the MMR after I had the mumps. ?? I had a reaction to it (I was 3 or 4). The only vaccines we got when I was a child were dtp, polio and MMR. I nearly died after my first vaccines at 2 months of age.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 THe horror stories I've seen with WC is just coughing continuously for 2 min and not able to breathe because of it and that's how it becomes serious for very young kids, I guess that's what freaked me out.... > > > > I had chickenpox at 3, measles at around 4, mumps at 6, whooping > cough at 5 > > (or thereabouts and I was vaxed too!) and although I had rubella, I > don't > > remember when.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Me too. And that's the one the pediatricians really try to scare you with... My dd is just 16 months, so the thought of her coughing that way really scares me. It's about the only one of the Vax Diseases that scare me. I had chicken pox at age 8. I just remember it being itchy...laying on the couch a lot to rest...pretty uneventful. I will go to visit my family this Christmas for the 1st time since my dd was born, and I am the only non-vax person. I know my dad, especially, and my brother's wife, would both have a fit if they knew. My mom knows and is nervous about my dd's well being...

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 I'm 60, had measles, mumps and chickenpox like most other people I knew as a kid, whooping couch a little older, which took a couple of months to get over completely, but even it wasn't that bad--just a big annoyance. In my entire life, I've met one person--a guy--who said he was sterile from measles, I think it was. Those were minor--but I was never really well after being herded into those first polio vaccine trials, and 2 kids at my school who were part of it died from leukemia, from the leukemia virus contaminating the vaccines, and I've known many who died from cancers associated with the SV40 contaminant, I got hepatitis twice following tetanus shots for minor injuries, and when my unvaccinated 5-year-old daughter was forced to take a tetanus shot following a superficial cut on a military base, she contracted (almost immediately) a combined Staph-Strept A infection, and not from the injury site, but internally because ot the vaccine--in short, a " flesh-eating bacterial infection " which was so virulent that my husband and I got infected too. Luckily, we had a naturopath at the time who told us not to go with the medical treatment they tried to force on us--massive antibiotic treatment--and instead went with an alkalizing treatment with hydrotherapy which stopped the infection from spreading into necrotising fasciitis, but we had to flee the state in the dark of night to avoid prosecution and state custody of our daughter. She remained unvaccinated after that, and I think only had chickenpox, and her daughter is unvaccinated and vibrantly healthy, top of her class, no behavior problems. Her half-sister was not so lucky. Their dad went along with the first-born refusing shots (allowed in WA state by personal exempt.) thanks to my daughter's influence, but with a different partner, he tried to refuse shots in the hospital at birth, and his baby was taken right out of his arms and told " it's the law " , was vaccinated, almost died within 48 hours (apnea incident, became unconscious) and progressed to a crisis state in 21 days, with high-pitched crying, severe respiratory distress and other symptoms and at 28 days was hospitalized by a pediatrician whose assistant was freaked out over the pitch of the cries, which started again when the baby was undressed and laid on a cold scale (it wasn't constant)--the parents had been calling all week to a nurse's hotline and told baby just had a hard cold, was fussy, red eyes/hemorrhaged lids due to crying, colic...didn't need to be seen. Meanwhile baby had developed vaccine-induced, accelerated, infantile scurvy-endotoxemia, a hemorrhagic disease with bleeding and bone abnormalities, abnormal bruising, spontaneous fractures or the appearance thereof...only these days they call it " classical " Shaken Baby Syndrome and the caretakers go straight to prison. (Atypical Shaken Baby is when there is actual abuse, such as bruising at the site of internal injuries instead of just random bruising from hemorrhagic conditions). All of this is on my website http://truthquest2.com --the shaken baby site is buried inside ('s story link, home page) until we get all of the medical records and have a legal case prepared to hand over to an attorney. It goes first to an organization that will finance it and get their own lawyers if they accept the case on the recommendation of the polygraph examiner/investigator now working with us who is associated with them. Yes, he has been asking for a lie detector test since day one and nobody listened. I finally started my own investigation after he had been in prison 6 years when it looked like his legal options were exhausted, thinking it was a battered baby case with the wrong parent blamed (the mom went to prison too as an " accomplice " --he got 16 years, she got 8--since she couldn't blame the dad for abuse that never happened) so this has been my life for the last year. The baby survived but was adopted out to strangers. They found reasons to reject every family member who applied.**Dianne PS. You might say we are " somewhat " against the practice of vaccination, particularly because " efficacy " studies involve only proof of artificially-induced antibody titer, which has been proven to have no particular correlation to actual immunity, and safety studies are non-existent the way they fake them, as well as refusing to study the effects of multiple vaccines given together. --------------------------------- Be a better pen pal.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 I understand why that would freak you out!! I can tell you that the kids cough was not pleasant sounding, but, it was far from them not being able to breath. At the time, my kids were 1, 3.5 and 6. The 3.5 yo and myself had the worse cough. My ribs would ache after a coughing spell, but, my 3.5 yo would cough and then act totally normal until the next spell. If you have alternative treatments in place (homeopathy, chiropractic, etc, etc) it's not such a scary situation!!!!
