Guest guest Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 Marie, Your question isn't all that odd, we run into it all the time at our house - with family, friends, new acquaintances. I'll try to give you my family's perspective so that maybe you can see a different side of the health care paradigm. As with most everything, in health care one will find there is another spectrum - reality, and it often doesn't match up with the " professional " opinion. I have found that reality is where this group lives. Most realize that they are in the position they are because they followed the advice of a professional - some of us blindly - until it was too late. I hadn't even related my son's ills to his early childhood and vaccinations until my husband and I sat down and thought really hard. What we remembered was a social, chatty, VERY happy child - until one point, then he cried at all meals (previously his favorite time of the day), started being very quiet, and though happy, it was in a different, more introverted way. Those tantrums, where he would throw himself on the floor and crash his head trying to get my attention? We realize now, they weren't " age related " and something we just had to go through. Neither was the bedwetting that started up again after him being fully night trained. We didn't have to go through that at all! But, at the time, we didn't know, no professional told us the truth about the dangers of immunizations, commercially grown foods, local pesticide and other contamination in the water, the danger of fluoride in our water and toothpaste, etc. There was so much we didn't know about the harmful exposure in our world, so much of it being touted as the healthy way to do things by our " professionals. " We are now thankful that when our children were much younger we started down an " alternative " health care road - which is actually more traditional through history, only " alternative " to the young allopathic method now touted as norm and the only true medicine. I hate to think what may have become of my son had we continued with modern methods of vaccination, commercially grown foods, unnatural environments, etc, which are all touted as the way to do things. His body even kept us from poisoning him more, as he was allergic to drugs MDs prescribed!!! PTL Spend some time in the files section of the board, reading. Then check out the many links and even read a lot of Andy's posts. Those are my favorites because they are so informative. Don't trust the " professionals " to give you sound advice, or really know. Our dentist tried to convince me of the safety of fluoride by saying he takes it himself and would drink it! But, he was very good about making note there would be no fluoride for our children. It probably helped that we started seeing him when the oldest were teens, and they had no cavities with NO fluoride. I'm sure had he been their pediatric dentist, he would have pushed harder. Many here will attest to the fact that the very MDs who wanted to give their children vaccines, who said they were safe, also didn't have a clue what was in them! There are those who are good, but in general it has become a system of the blind following the blind. The MDs are told by the pharm companies what the newest drug will do for their patients, and of course given lots of free samples to hand out. The FDA rushes to approve, the populace gets the new wonder drug, the populace gets sicker, the FDA reviews the drug and finds out it is killing the populace, the drug is removed from the market. . . etc., etc, etc. And the game goes on. We've been self treating for many things for years without professional advice. A professional wanted me to take a neurotoxic drug for what they said was an incurable vascular disease. I didn't listen and eventually it went away on its own. I can't say I'm cured though, that is illegal, since the disease was labeled incurable! My husband lost one kidney to cancer at 24 years old, and was drug through tests and garbage for years after for nothing, drinking radioactive potions and such. We finally cut the doctors loose to play with someone else's health. He's been fine since, no more continual problems being chased around round rooms with no corners to hide in. It is amazing how healthy he got when he stopped playing their games with all their drinks, potions and exposure. My oldest daughter prayed herself out of a diagnosis that said she would need glasses for life, and now has 20/20 vision with NO corrective steps taken by any " professional. " My mother was crippled by MDs " professionals " that they are. They gave her one drug after another until my father had to carry her into a chiropractor who took her off all her drugs, got her straightened out. She is now living alone, avoiding all MDs, not taking a single pharmaceutical drug and working cleaning houses full-time at 68 years young. She hit her crisis at 40. I could go on for paragraph after paragraph about what the professional will do to " help. " But, I hope you are getting the idea. Just because modern society would have us believe that the education of an MD is required to take 2 aspirin, doesn't mean it is so. Our family even has the gall to do all this self-treating and alternative stuff without having a health insurance policy! (we don't do health insurance, not even gov't funded, on purpose and don't want to) Enjoy the ride here, it will challenge what you've thought was normal. I've only been a short timer on this board, but have learned enough for a lifetime. I'm looking forward to learning much more, and continuing to improve our health without the help of a professional. Personal experience that is shared here is much more valuable to me. Then I use my brain, my circumstances, that information and create a plan. It is the way things were done 100s of years ago, with the older, wiser generation sharing with the younger. The information here comes from real life experience, not some pharmaceutical company control lab study that is designed for a specific outcome, then taught in a sterile classroom from a book with examples chosen specifically to prove the necessary point. Where exactly does the danger lie? P.

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 Try this page. www.rvi.net/~fluoride/s25.htm wishing you the best answers elizabeth > > Wow. Thanks. CAn someone talk about flouride?? I've never heard of any of this stuff I do think about the water/ pesticdes and feel more compelled to think this is were the issue lies. I didnt really think it was the vaccines but in a week of being on this list I can see that perhaps my youngest son couldnt excrete the toxins in the shots and that did something.
