We decided not to immunize anylonger.. our first child who is now 16yrs had
'most' .. the 2nd dd age 10..only about 'half' and the last dd age
6yrs..none at all. We read and researched allot before making this decision.

Dr. Mercola has an excellent site and lots of info about immunizations..
http://www.mercola.com/article/vaccines/prevent_health.htm

I also recommend the book.. "What Every Parent Should Know About Childhood
Immunizations" by Jamie Murphy.

I forgot to mention in all of this that I am 44 years old and have never been
immunized. My mom and dad made the decision based on research. I've even
spent time in Mexico without contracting anything. I've cared for babies who
were been immunized with the live polio vaccine. However, I was aware and
practiced good prevention techniques.

I'm not saying that I'm proof that vaccines aren't necessary but I think my
experience and that of a few other adults like me are good cause to consider
that sanitation and awareness are a large part of the picture in the decline
of these diseases.

Hi Kris,
I too have never been immunized, my mother chose not to! I have been a sub
teacher, a medical assistant, nurses aide, just to name a few! No one has
ever asked me!
