Landmark Decision – MMR Vaccine

First rulings where a family has proved the MMR vaccine affected a child’s health.

This is AMAZING and I am so glad this is out in public now.

Please watch this.

I personally know of at least 3 or 4 other cases where the parents have seen a correlation between vaccinations and brain injury – not just autism.

I hope this raises awareness for the need to make sure vaccines are SAFE for children.

The Dragon Warrior

Today we watched Kung Fu Panda like 5 times. I think Nathan has rotavirus on top of an ear infection on top of a staph infection in his nose so he was not up for much more than watching TV, which is what we did all day. And since Kung Fu Panda is his flavor of the month, that’s what we watched, over and over and over again.

There’s a part in Kung Fu Panda where Shifu goes to talk to Master Uguay and complains about Panda, saying that it was a mistake that Panda was chosen as the Dragon Warrior, that it was an accident he had fallen out of the sky.

And wise Master Uguay says, “There are no accidents. You must believe.” Finally Shifu believes and finds a way to teach Kung Fu to Panda.

So Panda read the Dragon Scroll and learned that belief was the secret ingredient, that all he had to do was believe in himself and he would find the Dragon Warrior within, that he didn’t need anything else other than belief.

So my motto for this year will be: Believe.

The secret ingredient to my noodle baby is to believe in his potential. The secret ingredient for my journey as a mother is to believe in my own potential. Then we will both shine in our own wacky crazy way and find the beauty within ourselves, whatever that may be.

Do you believe?

If I knew then what I know now…

…what would I do differently?

I would’ve taken more time out for myself and made self-care a priority.

I would’ve stressed/worried a LOT less. Stress is such a waste of time and energy and in the end it accomplishes nothing.

I would’ve kept Nathan on his belly most of the time.

I would’ve paid a LOT more attention to his food and I wouldn’t teach him to eat sugar or junk food.

I would’ve gone straight to Dr. Dituro from the moment of Nathan’s birth. I would’ve known that Western medicine doesn’t have much to offer and wouldn’t have wasted so much time trying to gain answers from Western medicine. I woud’ve instead relied on alternative treatments from the beginning.

I would’ve started ABR long ago.

I would’ve paid more attention to my relationship with Owen and made date nights and “us” time a priority.

I would’ve worked a lot lot less and seen myself and my time as Nathan’s biggest resource, not the things I could offer him as a fruit of my work.

I would NEVER trust doctors. I would know to trust and rely myself above doctors and I would’ve made many medical choices differently.

I know we can’t turn back time and in general there’s not much I would change from my journey with Nathan. Sometimes when I’m talking to friends and reminiscing and telling stories I find myself saying, gosh, if only I’d known that back then. So I thought I’d share some of the things I wish I’d known.

What things do you wish you’d known back then? What do you think would’ve changed/improved your journey if you’d only known it sooner?

I know everything happens in due time and certain things prepare us for others etc…. But just for the sake of conversation…
