There are public figures doing what we do. It's not as scary as it once was to go against the grain. I too started out hush, but when I realized the sheer size of this community of warrior moms and specialists, I lost that fear and grew a voice. We can no longer allow the "authority" to control us when it comes to the health of our family.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01900390957087776716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3870724569005621487.post-36961054916875705562011-06-06T00:36:51.772-04:002011-06-06T00:36:51.772-04:00I think that as our children heal and we find ways...I think that as our children heal and we find ways to reach out and tell our story we can help more and more kids...it is hard for me as a single mother to say too much about biomed or chelation because in the poor middle class community you can get your kid snatched away from you in a heartbeat by talking to much about those things!<br />so i keep my mouth shut until the day my son is healthy and I feel safe to talk about what I have done to help him. but more and more moms like us out there we will reach more and more kidschannanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3870724569005621487.post-88183859615334296492011-05-01T20:59:46.071-04:002011-05-01T20:59:46.071-04:00I hate to say I know "exactly" what you&...I hate to say I know "exactly" what you're saying, b/c obviously I don't....however. Boy, have I been there...family thinking we're extremists and then living life and seeing kids fall through the cracks is a tragedy. <br /><br />I am absolutely PROUD of my kids. Today for example, my six year old making extremely intelligent jokes and cracking up the whole family....this is a change that has been worth ALL of the labor.<br /><br />Keep up the good work and THANKS for blogging.

I wasn't prepared to change everything in my life based on that one conversation, but it definitely is why I started researching and questioning things more. It put me on this path at a time when it was so vital for my child to heal effectively. I thank that person, in my mind, every day. I wish I knew her and could share how much she alone has impacted our lives today. <br /><br />For many, their lack of knowledge is the only thing standing in the way of healing their children from the inside out. So I have a special place in my heart for that particular place in time.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01900390957087776716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3870724569005621487.post-66077347501533586702011-04-30T03:43:38.586-04:002011-04-30T03:43:38.586-04:00I think, in writing a blog about your experiences,...I think, in writing a blog about your experiences, you are already doing something. <br /><br />I know the feeling, both of seeing someone and having to bite my comments back, but also feeling like maybe I shouldn't hold back? - and the feeling of wanting to give back, to help someone else the way I've been helped. Like you, I know that in 99,99% of the cases, it's probably best to shut up - I've never done it, given someone my phone number, but I've wanted to. For one thing, my path or my experiences may not be helpful in someone else's situation, AND no matter what I say, I can't make the decision for anyone to change. It can be hard to watch something which SEEMS to be so exactly like what you've experienced yourself, though. I've often cried, too :-(<br /><br />I try to give back by participating in forums, that way, you only get to talk to people who have already made a decision, and started out on a path of finding out what works to make themselves and their children feel better. I try to listen and be open, also when people tell me things are working for them that I didn't expect or didn't work for me - I think that's what has been the worst for me these recent years, the realisations of all those times when I was younger: if doctors and family had listened to what I said rather than invented reasons, my problems could have been tackled SOOO much earlier. I don't want to be angry, but the feeling bubbles up sometimes, so listening to someone else feels like the most important thing to do.<br /><br />Hm, long rant :-) - sorry about your shopping experience. Keeping yourself up to snuff so you can pass on good health and good intentions to your kids is the most important, I think!Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01464559180992220717noreply@blogger.com
