Hi Noelle! When you wrote "what an education. Why did I never question?" that’s exactly what many parents of vaccine damaged children have said AFTER their beautiful babies were adversely affected by routine childhood vaccinations. Many, if not most parents routinely accept their doctor’s advice that "the benefits outweigh the risks" without actually being informed of what those risks are. All vaccines carry risk of adverse reactions; some more than others - especially when they are combined to several in one day. Some ingredients found in common vaccines include Thimerosal ( a mercury derivitive), aluminum and formaldehyde (the smelly liquid dead frogs were preserved in back in grade 12 Biology class!). The cultures can be grown on monkey kidney cells or chick embryos, and one vaccine was even cultured with aborted fetal tissue.

I’m not saying that all vaccines are bad - just that parents need to do their homework on this issue. We don’t blindly accept everything our endos tell us and we question them along the way regarding CAH issues. We need to do the same regarding vaccinations.
