Don't sign that!......

I took my son to the doctor for a physical today and I was just shocked at a paper the nurse so nonchalantly handed me to sign. If you've read my previous articles, then you know that after much thought and research Idecided not to vaccinate my children. As annoying as it is, I answer the same questions as to why every time I go to the doctor. This time though, the nurse hands me a paper to sign. She says it's just to say that I refused vaccines.

I almost signed it. Then I decided to read the whole paper. The beginning says that the doctor went over all the dangers and info on vaccines, that I refused them anyway blah..blah..blah... THEN there is a part that said that I am willfully and purposefully putting my child and other children at risk!! STOP THE PRESSES!! I came to a very difficult decision after years of going back and forth, and after witnessing the havoc that my children's immune system went through. My daughter could've died from the reaction she had! How dare they try to get me to sign that I am willfully putting my children at risk. Do these doctors think that they could ever love my children or care for their well being as much as I do? Have they lost nights of sleep, run to hospitals, cried for, worked for, sacrificed for, any of my children? Have they been there when I sat up all night with my daughter sleeping on my chest in a sitting position, just so she could breath better because of a reaction to their vaccines?

I am sorry, but in my opinion many doctors are shamefully uninformed. I don't think most of them do the research that it takes to really be able to say that vaccines are safe. They give you the same line given to them about how the benefits outweigh the risks. Which one of you out there wants to be the parent with the 1 out of 150 children who gets autism. And even if doctors completely ignore autism, how can they ignore the amount of children that come back to their office with asthma or some other health problems after a vaccine all at the same time? They won't even consider a vaccine reaction, and if you mention it, they brush you off. It is irresponsible on their part.

As people that are so respected for their opinions and that hold the lives of people in their hands, it is their responsibility to make sure that what they are telling you to do is safe. Do the research! And don't give me some statistics. Talk to mothers with damaged children. There is a problem here that is getting swept under the rug.

Do I think that vaccines are all bad? No.

Do I think that there is a risk in not giving vaccines? Yes

I think there are huge profits being made off of vaccines and medications and very little being done to really find out what the problem is.

I rather choose to wait until my children are older and stronger, to give a vaccine, then to inject a 1 day old baby with a developing immune system with something that they CANNOT GUARANTEE ME IS SAFE! It's a risk either way. And you cannot take back the damage that is done, but you can vaccinate when they are older.

I am sorry to get so carried away, I just get so angry that people have to make decisions out of fear. Doctors, the press, everyone wants people to be scared and just do what they say. But they don't live with the consequences.

Next time you are given any paper to sign, remember that your signature is an agreement to whatever is on that paper! You don't have to sign anything you are not in agreement with.
Be informed.. and blog it forward....

New discovery to help atopic dermatitis

Hi, everyone. I just found a treatment that has really helped my daughter with a skin problem she has been having and I wanted to share it with you.
A few months ago my daughter broke out in a rash around the trunk of her body. Her skin became really rough and pimply and she would get red and itchy. She didn't have it on her face and she had very little on legs and arms. Anyway, I stopped using detergent on her clothes and went to the doctor. The doctor prescribed me Elidel for what she said was atopic dermatitis, sensitive skin. I had trouble at the pharmacy because they said it was not recommended for children under 2(she is 14 months). I looked it up and was appalled at the warnings and possible side effects(cancer, headaches, etc...). My daughter cannot tell me if she feels a stomach ache or headache. No way am I going to use this.
Instead I did my regular research and found a site that said apple cider vinegar was useful to many people who had this type of problem. I decided to try it and it really worked well. My daughter's back is almost completely cleared up and her stomach and chest are greatly improved. She still has some itching, which goes away when I apply the apple cider, but it looks so much better.
The treatment I use is a couple of capfuls of apple cider vinegar and then some water to dilute it, or it will sting. I use cotton and put it all over the irritated skin and let it dry. Yes it stinks pretty bad, but the smell goes away(or your nose gets used to it)after a while. I do this a couple of times a day. After a bath I will lotion her up.
This is not a miracle cure, and natural remedies work differently on different people. My daughter did really benefit from this. Her skin is not totally clear. She still gets itchy and some redness, but it is really much better then it was. Once I apply this, the itching goes away for a while and her skin gets red from the vinegar. But as I said before her skin looks better, the scratches heal faster and roughness and pimples are almost gone. So I say give it a try! All of the remedies that I use regularly are things that I just tried to see what would work. And now I have an arsenal of things to use so that I can avoid a lot of these dangerous prescription and over the counter medications. I will share with you as I learn and I would love to hear about any remedies that work for you.
As always.. blog it forward.....

march for freedom with Ron Paul

[ Please copy and post this on your website or blog ]

I found these interesting videos on Michael Moore's site.http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/stoplossvideos People protesting about the war and soldiers that have had their stay extended involuntarily. They are even denied vacation according to these protesters. It's amazing that none of this shows up in the press, but I am not surprised. It speaks to the state of our press. It does not serve the people of this country anymore, but instead the politicians and big business. Propaganda has become our mainstream news.

In this video you will see people getting arrested for "protesting without a permit." I thought that we lived in a democracy and we had a right to peaceful protests! Since when do we need permits? Permits to drive, make a house, protest, add a room, open a business.....We need permission(permits) for just about everything these days. And to the police who are looked upon as heroes; Why do you betray your fellow Americans when you know that they are protesting injustice and hypocrisy? Why are you so eager to lay down the law on your fellow citizens when politicians walk free for their crimes? Don't think it's true? Recently the governor of New York was outed for paying thousands of dollars to a prostitute. Any other citizen guilty of that illegal activity would have been arrested. Why aren't you staunch enforcers of the law arresting him???? Why don't you law enforcers that hold such an important position, instead of arresting the protesters, stand up with them? Why so anxious to be lap dogs and obedient goons instead of free men with dignity and a sense of true justice! I never can understand why man so easily gives up his freedom and autonomy to serve one or two masters. This country could be a lot different if when the police were called in to arrest people fighting for the rights of all citizens, they would just stand their against orders and support the cause to keep us all free...

Should you be a freegan?

The other day I caught a clip of Oprah doing a show on groups of people called Freegans. I had never heard of them before, but I found I had a lot in common with them.
Freegans are people that make a choice, not out of necessity, to meet thier needs by spending as little money as possible and recycling all the food, clothes, furniture,etc.. that gets thrown out everyday in this country.
Now I won't be trading the supermarket for the dumpster anytime soon, but as I said in a previous blog. My husband and I are planning to make a big change in lifestyle. We also want to get out of the current system and live a much simpler, and healthier life.
There is something wrong with this picture....
When I was growing up my parents both worked. It was a natural thing to me and I thought nothing of having to kiss my husband goodbye and part ways for 10 hours. When we got home we were both exauhsted, stressed and irritable. And all this was to support ourselves in a small apartment. After a while, it just didn't feel right to me. I got married so that I could share my life with my husband, but I am hardly seeing him. Our paychecks really belong to the banks, landlord, electric and gas companies, supermarket, and uncle sam gets his cut of course. The more overtime I work, the more I get taxed so it really isn't worth it.
Then when I began having children everything changed. I didn't want to have to leave my babies. I wanted to be an at home mom and enjoy every single moment with my children. I didn't want to leave him in the hands of strangers or other family members to raise. They grow so fast and then they are gone. I only get them for like 18 years. Then they go make thier own lives. I didn't want to lose that.
Staying at home ment a huge sacrifice. My husband and I will never be able to afford a house or a new car. At least not in the place we are living in now.
What American Dream?
The American dream is just not what it once was. I will never be able to pay off a house that costs 1/4 of a million dollars. And even if I could, the house would only be mine for as long as I can pay property taxes. Food has become so expensive you end up sacrificing health for the cheap junk. I am not surprised that there are so many depressed people in this country. I think everyone has that underlying feeling that this system of doing things is wrong.
We are losing our rights at work. People are so close to poverty that they can't afford to speak out against unfairness. Corporations and big businesses take advantage of this. They own the politicians and laws are made in thier favor.
People are sacrificing time with thier children and spouses and just getting so little return on those sacrifices.
Feeling Free
After years of a no win struggle my husband and I have decided to remove ourselves from this hamster wheel and try something new. As I said in my recent post, we have paid off some bills and we are scraping together what we can and we are leaving this state to another where it is cheaper to live. We plan to build our own house, literally, and grow our own food and try to hustle a business if we can. But at least any work or sacrifice we make or do will be for us, not Bank of America or Slomins. And we will be enjoying our time together.
Help For Everyone
I know there are a lot of people out there that feel just as drained and shackled as I do. This is not what this country was ment to be. We need to take it back from the banks, and corporations. People need to get out and vote for real change( Vote Ron Paul. Or join Ron Paul's march for freedomhttp://www.ronpaulmarch.com/). Don't buy things on credit. Banks love you for it, and so does your employer, it means you have to do what he wants for as little as he wants to pay you for it.
If you are going to take out the equity in your house, don't use it to improve the bank's property. Instead buy yourself a piece of land. Or invest in solar power.
Get a fireplace so you can tell the oil company to go screw themselves. They are making record profits! Profits are what is left after the expenses.
People throw out so much good stuff everday. Here is a site you can go to and get tons of free stuff. http://Freecycle.org/ . You could furnish a house on what people get rid of.
There are also many sites where people barter and trade. Google it.
Many illnesses and minor health issues can be treated without expensive never ending medications. Some sites to check out: http://www.naturalnews.com/, http://naturalcurereviews.com/, http://www.verdant.net/food.htm,
If my husband and I succeed in our mission I will be telling everyone how! Until then, Blog it foward...

Great cure for stomach viruses

Lime!! I have used lime anytime anyone in my family has become ill with a stomach ache, or vomitting. My 3 year old woke up the other day with a low grade fever, headache, and vomitting. I juiced 2 limes and gave it to him. He did vomit again. After he vomitted the second time I immediatly juiced 3 limes and gave it to him. About a 1/2 hour later I gave him some water and he vomitted again. One hour later, his fever was gone, he no longer felt sick and he got his appetite back. He didn't throw up again.
I have used it everytime one of my kids get sick with vomitting and it always stops it. Sometimes it works after the first dose, sometimes it might take a couple. It works great for adults to. In my experience it has to be three limes for it to work.
Lime is also great for soar throats. Take one lime and juice it and drink a couple of times a day as soon as you feel that little scratchy feeling in the back of your throat. It will usually stop the soar throat in it's tracks. Keep taking it until the soarness is gone.
Hope this helps..

Propoganda alive and well in America!!

I read an article on my favorite healthsite the other day, and it had a link to this clip of a newscast that was trying to say that Mercury in vaccines might actually be good for kids!!!! I almost fell out of my seat! Would anyone really believe that Mercury, that is sooo dangerous that you can't even touch it, is good for kids? It just shows you what a puppet the press is now a days.
Here is the link for all who want to see it..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZArebYZzdc

Hello Again...

Hey everyone, I am sorry I've been gone for a while. A lot of things happening. First of all, my husband and I decided that we are very soon going to drop everything here and make a go at building our own house. Yes, that's right, we want to try to build a house with whatever money we can scrape together, and with our own labor. Why? Because it is just a shame that the right to shelter has become nothing more then modern day surfdom. You get permission to buy a home that you will never be able to pay off in your lifetime, and even if you do pay it off, you must always pay dues to Uncle Sam or he will take away your life's work. That to me is not homeownership. I don't want to live in debted to anyone, and having to work and waste away all my time with my husband and children to never really own anything in the end makes no sense to me.
So anyway, we are currently saving and scraping together. We hope to be gone by the end of this year. If everythings works as planned I will be keeping everyone posted on how we do. We are going to risk it, and if it works out I will definately tell everyone how we did it!!
