Our legacy - Our Children

There are many directions we parents must consider when looking into the health of our children, and one of these is vaccine information.  What about the huge levels of Autism being seen across the country?  What will be the long term implications if we vaccinate, and what about if we don't?  My husband and I do vaccinate our children, but we choose to vaccinate at a later age.  We also limit what vaccinations we feel they should get.

What to do:
I decided to stay connected with Dr. Mercola, and his website, because he shares similar views on our health as we do. My children have upcoming vaccinations, and I decided to check the vaccine calculator to see what levels of chemicals are really in the vaccines I want to inject into my kids.  After contacting our pediatrician I was given the manufacturer and brand names of those vaccines that my children would be receiving.  I then went to the vaccine calculator and plugged in all our choices. I made sure to choose the safest (in my opinion) vaccine without compromising my moral beliefs - NO HUMAN FETUS CELLS.  Each child's vaccination report was then printed, revealing what levels of each harmful chemical would be given at one time to my child. I am currently NOT OKAY with some of those levels of dangerous chemicals: Mercury (non have), Aluminum 455.0 mcg (36.5 mcg is safe range), Formaldehyde exposure amount 105.5 mcg (no level is okay), Phenoxyethanol 5.8 mcg, Yeast protein 1 exposure, Bovine protein 1 exposure. Those rates are for my 9 month old baby!  The levels for my 5 yr. old, and 11 yr. old are even worse. Really, is this actually what I want to do?  Every time, no joke, that I vaccinate my children they come down with flu like symptoms, and high fevers, and aches - Is this okay?

I decided to research what the FDA reports on these vaccines, and what the risks of natural exposure instead of a temporary, poorer choice vaccination would be. I found more information on Dr. Mercola's site, but I did find information through the FDA's own listings. Now I am wondering if I should forgo vaccinations altogether.

I suggest that if you are interested in finding out what is in the vaccinations that you want for your loved ones you start with Dr. Mercola, and start reading some of his information.  The question remains, does the vaccination out way the risks of the disease in it's natural stage?  Will our children be immune for ever?  According to Dr. Mercola he addresses these questions and more through his ongoing research and findings. He said recently on a video about the Mennigitis vaccination (need to be signed into his website), that a vaccination is an inferior way of building up antibodies to these diseases, because they are manufactured and not identified by our bodies the way a true immunity would be produced in our bodies had we contracted the disease in our natural environment.

We parents need to feel we can make an informed choice when it comes to vaccinations, without the government (state) mandating what drugs must be shot into our children. This is not a money making issue for us parents, it is the life and longevity of our legacy, our children.
