sorry major mistype that was for girliegrl1723
It suprises me that people who have never experiened the problems that a vaccine can cause in a small child are such an expert on the subject. If you are so pro vaccination, why would you "read tons of info linking shots and autism"? makes no sense to me.
I pray the critics of families who are against certain shots never experience autism,adhd or any other of those problems in their own child.
i am not denying the fact that something is wrong with your sister and i am sorry you and your family have to endure such a thing. however, i had read the tons of info linking shots and autism and have to say it is not conclusive. you sisters story is a little more beliveable than the one with ADHD, but i just think for the shots that have been given for years and years and prevented so many cases of serious diseases such as polio and rubella, the pros have to outweigh the cons. then again, i am not in your situation and if i was, i'm sure my opinion would be different. but the "facts" like i stated above, are just not conclusive.
Do a search on the net on the link between autism and vaccines. There is a ton of info. out there. As far as "proving" that my sister was damaged by her shots. Well, where do I begin?.... First, she was completly typically developing, as I stated, until her 18 month old shots. She had language, didn't self-stim, didn't have autistic type behaviors, didn't have seizures, and she acted like a typical toddler for here age. Anyway, her neurologist has done some sort of test to test her rubella titer, and this doctor says it's as if she has a raging case of the disease right now, even though she doesn't. I don't know all of the medical research and such that goes behind it, but the neurologist says that without a doubt my sister was damaged by her vaccines. My parents have even been part of a lawsuit to collect money for damages caused to my sister. There is a Vaccine Injury Act set up for this, because it DOES happen.
how can anyone prove that the immunization shots were to blame for the things that happened to cnhgibert's sister and 12RKBK and the people she knows? )by the way - 12RKBK, im pretty sure you have to be 18 to post on this site) but seriously, how do we know that shots caused these things? especially the one about ADHD. how is that linked to a shot? how do we know the child didn't have the condition before the shot? who says? just like the links people are trying to place between shots and autisim. how? and why? until then, i will continue to get my sons shots as scheduled.
Really do your research. I am definitley not a conspiracy theorist, and I know that vaccines can cause damage. My sisiter was permantly damaged by her vaccines years ago. She now has a seizure disorder, has little language, and self-help skills. She lives in a group home and requires constant care. She was NORMAL before her shots. Her neurologist even says it is due to her vaccines. Most people don't understand the dangers or know a lot about them until it happens to them or in their family. Please make an informed choice. I'm not saying not to vaccinate, but just to be aware of the pros and cons. Best wishes!
