"I'm 27 years old. Come from a family of 6 where all kids where not vaccinated. My parents raised us on very healthy foods. Whole grains, beans, lot's of vegetables and good quality soy sauce, miso, sea weeds. We where always in great health. As a child i had minor cases of 5 of the common child diseases. Measles, chicken pox, whooping cough, german measles (Rubella), mumps. As i said they where all very mild cases and i had no further complications.
As of now i'm still in great health. I'm raising my 4 kids this natural way. They are very healthy. Two years ago they had a mild case of chicken pox. Also my sister who just had her 3rd baby is not vaccinating. And my dad came from a family of 5 where no one was vaccinated either. You may say... It runs in the family."

"Corey has always been a settled, happy child.  He has had one illness in 5 yrs, a cough/cold when I vaccinated him homeopathically for whooping cough.  I think it gave him a mild dose of it and thats why I decided to stop vaccinating even homeopathically.  As a baby he required so little settling it was unbelievable.  You fed him, changed him let him have a play and then put him to bed and he would happily go to sleep.  Babysitters could not believe how easy he was to look after.

I truly believe after vaccinating my first son fully, and my second son to 6mths (stopped when he had a severe reaction) that our decision to not vaccinate Corey, our third son was one of the best decisions we have ever made.  He has been the happiest and healthiest of the three boys.  His immune system was allowed to function on its own and fight off all the bugs his brothers brought home from childcare, school and kinder. He is a healthy, robust child.  Corey was born at 35wks and the nurses in special care advised me not to vaccinate due to being a premmie.  I was surprised after having had to fight for our rights not to vaccinate previously but it proved the tide had turned since the dramas I had with not fully vaccinating Corey's older brother.

I have no doubt that Corey has been as healthy as he is because his immune system has not been compromised.  When I compare the health of him and his brothers between the ages of birth to 2 it is incredible how healthy he was whilst the others had numerous bouts of gastro, colds, a bad flu and one a compromised digestive system that led to food intolerances that could not be explained.  Antibiotics during pregnancy and vaccinations compromised Corey's brother's digestive system and he has only now at the age of 8 experienced true good health.  Corey has been able to eat anything and maintain a healthy body.  He has such a strong constitution, great gross and fine motor skills and is intelligent for his age.  I only wish I had not vaccinated his brothers so their immune systems had the same chance to function normally without a chemical, virus and bacteria overload.  I have no doubt my children are sensitive to chemicals, preservatives and additives.  It is reflected in their health and behaviour everytime they consume too many chemicals, preservatives and additives and I am grateful everyday of our lives that we saved at least one child from vaccination overload.  I feel guilty everyday for what I put the others through, especially my 8yr old who has had a much more difficult start to life because we vaccinated him."

"I have three children, one daughter and two sons, my daughter being the eldest. When my daughter was born, we had no idea that there was even a choice with regards to vaccinating our new baby, let alone any knowledge of anything else at all to do with any of the baby vaccines. We just went along with whatever a health professional recommended we do, which is what everyone else seemed to do at the time. So my daughter received the baby vaccinations, all three doses, but when it came to the MMR we learned that there was some controversy surrounding it and its possible side-effects. This prompted me to do a little research about it, and I barely touched the surface with what I could find at the time, but what I found caused my husband and I to decide that we would still like to protect our daughter from these so-called dangerous diseases so we opted for the single vaccines, at great cost to my in-laws as we weren't able to pay for them. Half way through the programme of three separate shots I found out other things that made me stop in my tracks, and also fuelled my desire to keep on researching, to find out as much as I could about them. I bought a few books and spent a long time on the internet, and decided that what I found was enough for me to say no to the third and final one of the three, rubella. I found I really regretted giving her any of the immunisations at all having not known anything about them before having them administered to her. I breastfed her until 7 months, and she was only fed organic and completely natural foods for the first two years of her life, I checked every food packaging label for signs of unwanted, unhealthy and unpleasant ingredients but I never did this when about to vaccinate. I have spent years dealing with the guilt and wishing I'd not done it, but have realised that you can only do the best you can with what you know at the time, that was all I could do. I went on to have two boys who are completely vaccine-free, and I have no intention of letting a needle near them as long as I can. They have been very healthy, one is 6 and one is 4. My 4 year-old unfortunately inherited an allergic tendency from his father who suffered terribly with eczema as a baby and child, and went on to develop asthma, so I am really glad I haven't vaccinated him for that reason too. Apart from this he has been the healthiest of the three, rarely suffering from sickness bugs, only ever having a few short-lived colds, and a possible once a year fever lasting no more than a day or two. My 6 year old is much the same, but my daughter who is now 9 was different as a toddler. She suffered her first bad cold at 8 months of age, she went on to be one of these children whose nose is constantly running and I felt that although she didn't get ill very frequently, when she did she always seemed to suffer with it worse than the boys did. She is now a healthy 9 year old and seems fairly resistant except for one or two mild illnesses a year. The boys seem to go a long time without getting anything, none of them have ever had an ear or chest infection, the boys have never had to have an antibiotic and my daughter only once for impetigo. When I decided to stop vaccinating I began to use homoeopathy, and have done ever since. Homoeopathic medicine is our first port of call for any family complaint from the very minor to the more severe. I recently used homoeopathic medicine to clear up a very nasty skin infection that my 6 year old son developed after a fall and bad graze to the knee which got infected. The nurse we saw couldn't believe we'd cleared it up with no antibiotic. So all in all I am very glad that I have kept my children mostly free from this incredibly doubtful and inconclusive method of protection from illness. I fully believe in nurturing the immune system naturally and will continue to do so. I strive to feed my children a healthy, varied and balanced diet containing plenty of fruit and vegetables. This, together with homeopathy, herbal medicine, nutritional supplements and aromatherapy essential oils forms a fantastic way of ensuring family health without unnecessary toxic chemicals which are constantly being linked to ill health later in life. Please keep up the good work encouraging vaccine-free families to share their experiences."

"I am the mother of 3 year old in Ontario Canada. After much research and deliberation, I opted not to vaccinate my daughter with any of the recommended vaccinations. Thankfully, I have a fairly supportive family so I wasn't met with any resistance at all (mostly questions). My husband trusted that I did my research and that I would know best so he was also supportive. To date, we couldn't be happier about our decision. My daughter is the healthiest, happiest, brightest little girl imaginable (and I'm not just saying that because I love her). She is leaps and bounds ahead of other children her age (her preschool teachers point this out to me almost daily). I'm grateful for this as she's a December baby headed into a JK/SK split class this September ... so she'll be the youngest by far. I have no concerns. Socially and cognitively she will not suffer at all and in fact will put some of the older kids to shame with her abilities. In addition to not being vaccinated, she eats a predominantly organic and GMO free diet and is highly supplemented with top-quality supplements. The benefits of this combination speaks for itself. My daughter is very healthy, has no allergies, never goes to the doctor, has a great personality and is incredibly smart. I have another child on the way and I won't change a thing ... why would I? I feel sad that other parents haven't yet come to the same conclusions I have. I tend to keep my opinions to myself, but I do feel very strongly that vaccinating our children is a mistake and not worth the risk."

"I have a 2 year old son who has not received any vaccinations to this day. He is a perfect healthy toddler. He does get an occasional sniffle now and then but with nutritional therapy and Chiropractic he is as good as new in no time flat. It's funny some of the looks and questions you get when someone asks if you use vaccinations on your child and you tell them NO. Also I would like to point out that without vaccinations compared to some other children his age with vaccinations that we run into, he seems to be a little more physically fit,  his hand-to-eye coordination is really good compared to some his age, and he is very intelligent and is speaking clearer than some his age also. I hope this helps anyone looking at vaccinations. My only advise to anyone is don't just go along with the crowds. Do your own research and do what is best for your particular child. Thanks.

I would also like to say when we see an MD, they always seem to ask and advise for the vaccinations, but if you let them know where you stand on vaccinations its much easier to deal with."
