Doctor Visit

I took Filip to the doctor today. It's been a whole year since he went. His doctor looked at his eyelid with the lump on it. Then he injected the eyelid with something that will break it up and make it go away.

I declined all vaccinations. Susan, the practitioner who was doing the well baby exam, said it is going to be a whole lot of vaccines that he will have to make up when he's older. I figured, if he has to get 21 shots before he's age 1, he can get those shots when he's 3 or 4. That way, I can compensate for who-knows-what chemicals they're injecting in him through detoxing and diet.

I know it's a fad for parents to decline vaccinations because they're afraid of autism. That's not my biggest concern. I don't like how aggressive Doctors are required to be about vaccinating children. Also, the benefits of receiving shots are very exaggerated, and the 'dangers' of not getting them are exaggerated. It makes me question the motivation behind these. If vaccinations only exist for the well-being of society, they wouldn't have to use bully tactics, and fragmented, biased information to get parents to inoculate their children.

My practitioner is very reasonable about this. It's obvious she dosen't agree, but she dosen't act like I'm a bad mother because I turned shots down.
