" I have five very healthy un-vaccinated children with my ex-husband Sam, who from the day of their birth was normal, bright, nurtured and protected from anything that would cause them harm within reason.   I loved my children like most parents do, wanting the very best for them and also trying to avoid any of the pit-falls I went through.   We all want our children to be healthy because we all realize that health is the one gift that allows us to do virtually anything we want to do in life!  Without our health, we must struggle to do even the simple things.  Children, for sure, deserve the best opportunity to be healthy!  We were very blessed because before our first child was born, we discovered the real secrets to raising healthy happy children!  It is not so much "What you do" but more about "What you don't do".  We did things very non traditionally....more like they would have done 100 years ago!  Our children were easy to learn, happy and emotionally stable, rational and pretty easy to control with discipline.  They were normal children all with unique personalities.  My husband, Sam and I were on the same page with how we were going to feed them, educate them and basically, we did things a little different than most. Be believed in natural home birth, the family bed and long-term nursing and avoided all medications, even over-the-counter drugs.  We gave the body time to work through problems because we understood this process called immune system development.  We never had a chronically sick child who needed lots of medical care.  Sure our children got the "normal childhood illnesses" like chicken pox, runny noses and colds, swollen glands, fevers and rashes and they got sick like most.  In fact, my second child, Austin, was very sensitive and was the one who had some health "challenges" between birth and 6 years old. There were moments when I was up all night; sleep deprived and even a little scared.   But, the choices we made and how we dealt with those moments made a huge difference in the health of our children and the outcomes.

 

 

"My son is a happy, healthy and vibrant 4 year old.  He was born at home, eats mainly organic and natural foods, never was vaccinated and will most likely be home-schooled.  My husband and I did not come to the decision to not vaccinate lightly.  We spent countless hours researching, watching lectures, reading stories and watching documentaries.  Actually, the more we learned the more we became angry and frustrated so many others do not question the medical and pharmaceutical industries. They are literally destroying our children, and we need to continue to bring awareness to this issue.  It deeply saddens me that many are so unwilling to question science and better understand how immunity actually works.  Thank goodness I listened to my maternal intuition, my son can thank me for it.  He is rarely ever sick, and if he is it is usual very mild and over in a few days.  He has never been to the Dr. or an illness, we take him to the chiropractor instead.  He is thriving and beautiful."

 

"My Dad was a pharmacist back in the 1950's after 6 years of pharmacy he decided that all the drugs that were being dispensed were not really helping people but causing more harm.  He left pharmacy in New Zealand and went to the USA to become a chiropractor. 
His whole life changed and so did is thoughts on health.  He no longer was mechanistic in his beliefs but more vitalisitic about health care.
My siblings and I were born between 1959 and 1964, my Dad and my Mum (who was a nurse) would not vaccinate us nor give us any antibiotics or pain killers.  My Dad believed if we fought the small infections and pains when we were babies then our bodies would get the practise to fight the bigger infections and pains as we got older.  It's interesting to note that I have the antibodies for many diseases, including german measles and malaria but I have never had the diseases.
I'm 52 this year and I've still not had a vaccination, antibiotic, pain killer or any form of prescribed or unprescribed medication.  I have a perfect weight, heaps of energy, love life and can't complain about anything in my life.  Yes I've had loss of loved ones but my physical and mental state has able to get me through the loss of my mother, sister, grandmother, mother in law and girlfriend within a 12 month period.  I miss them but don't define my life as a result.
I have three children 22, 20 and 18 they too have never been vaccinated and have never had any antibiotics or prescribed or unprescribed medications, they are the picture of health and wellbeing, they have no allergies, ADD, ADHD, autism, asthma, or any physical or mental health issues.  My two girls have menstrual cycles that are not even a hiccup in their month.  They are well rounded healthy children and I thank the teaching of my Dad and the foresight of my Dad that he chose not to vaccinate or medicate us. 
I am also a nutritionist and my philosophy is eating only real food.  Fruit, vegetables, meat (organ as well), poultry, fish, grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, eggs, butter, good quality raw dairy as much as I can.  We don't eat any packaged foods, I cook everything from scratch and believe that with my start in life, my out door lifestyle and having a healthy diet have all contributed to my families health and wellbeing.
My legacy for my family is that my children understand this philosophy and will in turn bring up their children without the need for vaccinations and medications."

 

 

"I am a mother of 2 boys age 6 and 3.  Both boys were born at home, and both were breastfed for 2 years.  When our first boy was born I began to read and study all that I could about vaccines.  I met with a naturopathic doctor to discuss the issue, and I found a number of books that were very enlightening and over the course of a few months, took many vaccine specific notes.  I did have 2 vaccinations for our first child Dtap and Hep B but did not do so until after he was 2 years of age and over a very long period for the series for each because we had planned to live overseas for some time.  I now realize that these were even unnecessary.
