Three years ago, when I was a mere fourteen years old, I had a near-death experience that turned my entire world upside down. Like so many people, I figured that I was young and that I was indestructable, and I "knew" (in my head) that I could die at any time, but I didn't really believe it until it became a reality. The scary thing is that what happened to me could happen to anyone. In fact, it happens to everyone, even if you don't notice it.

I went in to get a physical at my pediatrician's office so that I could swim for a local highschool that had recruited me. I was at the top of my game, and I was more in-shape than I had been in my entire life. Everything was going well for me--it was amazing. But, we all know that what goes up must come down.

During my completely routine physical, I received a tetanus-diptheria vaccine. No big deal, right? No one wants to get tetanus. Vaccines are for our own good; at least, that's what doctors tell us. We must get vaccines "for our own safety." But, what if I told you that vaccines aren't safe?

That tetanus-diptheria vaccine landed me on my death bed. I was almost completely bedridden for eight months. Three years later, I am still dealing with symptoms of what we believe is Gillian-Barr Syndrome. It's much too late for anyone to do anything about the syndrome, and I know that I'll probably never be healthy again. Gillian-Barr Syndrome is now listed a possible side-effect of the TD shot. But, that's all in the fine print, and who bothers to read all of that?

Everyone should bother to read all of the fine print. If they did, they would realize that vaccines are neurotoxins, and, whether or not you feel any different after receiving them, they affect everyone's nervous systems in a negative way. Before modern vaccines came around, neurological disorders such as ADD, ADHD, and even autism didn't exist. In countries where they don't administer modern vaccines, those disorders still don't exist. Plus, a single vaccine contains more mercury than we're supposed to be exposed to in a lifetime.

And, yet, we pump our children up with these things because we want them to be "safe." Quite ironic, isn't it?

When my illness began, we went to more doctors and specialists than I can count or remember, and no one would concede that my illness was caused by the vaccine, even though we had the research to back up our claim. "Vaccines just don't do that." Then why is there a government institution that aids those who are negatively affected by vaccines? Those doctors and specialists diagnosed me with everything on the board (asthma, a severe anaphylactic reaction to who-knows-what, and even vocal-chord dysfunction), but I didn't have anything that they diagnosed me with. I could see in their eyes that they knew that they were wrong, and yet they went ahead with the "safest" hypothesis, anyways. Finally, one doctor admitted to us that it was the shot, because there was no other explanation. One doctor, out of several, was brave enough to admit the truth.

We all know that everyone lies, but should we leave our health and our lives in the care of people who care more about job security than they do about our health and our lives?

Now, I don't think that the modern health-care system is all bad, but I think that people need to start doing research for themselves before they make even seemingly "normal" health-care choices, such as getting vaccines. I will never have another vaccine in my life, and neither will any children that I have in the future (because of genetics, they really can't, because it's very likely that they'll have a reaction like I did). Through this whole ordeal, I've learned that there are natural remedies for every single disease that exists; people just don't take the time or give the thought necessary to find those remedies.

If you want to keep pumping your body full of mercury and neurotoxins, go right ahead. Just realize that it's a serious decision that could end up affecting you or your loved ones forever. I almost died, and I'm still crippled, but I'm slowly improving and might start feeling relatively healthy sometime in the future. However, many people can't say the same thing about themselves or their loved ones. Countless people have died, and countless people are dying.

My only real warning is this: Don't think that it can't happen to you.
