Here are some testimonials from parents about how vaccines have impacted their children. You can find the rest of the testimonials here: http://www.followingvaccinations.com/

Abeautifuleyedea My son received 3 sets of vaccines, in 3 weeks, despite my protesting the fact. I was told children's services would be involved if I didn't comply with the vaccine schedule. Within a couple weeks he lost all the language he had acquired, and regressed so that he no longer had skills he was capable of even a month previous. Up to this point my son hit every milestone for his age of 18 month's. He is now 9, diagnosed with severe classic Autism and is LF and is nonverbal. I told the neurologist during the diagnosis process about the regression, fully expecting to be laughed out of his office, he agreed though. He felt my son possibly has a metabolic issue and couldn't handle the vaccinations and should have never been forced to have them. If only I would've known I had a legal right to refuse. Makes me wonder where we could be now.
Zenaida Acevedo My son is 3 years old and diagnosed with aspergers. I noticed trouble in his learning abilities after he received a dpt and a third dose of hepatitis and some others I do not remember. I told the doctor and he said don't worry about it, because the vaccines are save and not to believe everything I read. I'm a nurse and know what is inside those vaccines and it can be really harmful. Trono, Puerto Rico
Dawn Adams My son had the HIB and DTP shot. His leg was swollen and red, with a fever. They said that was normal and to give tylenol. He was speaking small words at the time and within a two week time frame he would just point at what he wanted. Took him back to the doctor and they said that some kids just don’t speak much and to make him say what he wanted before we gave it to him. He never really spoke again until 6 yrs ago, he is now 13. He also has seizures and has been diagnosed with Aspergers/Autism, Dyslexia. He was perfect and bouncy before then he changed and shut down. The injections were in Lake City Florida. I will never vaccinate again and have not with my others since.
Fran Adams My son developed typically and in some milestones, advanced, for the first 12 months of his life. His doctor commented on how well he was developing and reaching his milestones early. He began talking around 5-6 months of age. He was imitating. He was very engaging and interactive with all of us. He loved giving hugs and kisses. When he received his MMR vaccine at 12 months, he developed sever bilateral ear infections, had a high fever a few hours after receiving the vaccine, was sick pretty much for the next 3 months. He became sick with the rotavirus and was in the hospital for 3 days due the dehydration. I attributed his change in behavior (not talking, diarrhea, not interacting etc) to the ear infections and sickness. By 15 months of age, I became concerned because he no longer tried to feed himself. He became very restrictive in what he would eat. He did not talk. He had no eye contact. He cried and had tantrums. He did not imitate our actions. The last thing my child said to me was "I love you". He did not give hugs and kisses as he had prior to this event. I spoke of my concerns with his doctor who dismissed them. I contacted an organization call Birth to Three and learned of his delay. My son's birth mother contacted to me to inform me that her son was diagnosed with autism and that there was a chance that my son would also have this disorder. I began researching autism and saw that my baby was displaying most of the symptoms of autism. I discussed my concerns with the Birth to Three providers who were working with my son and was told that they did not think he had autism. I spoke with my son's doctor who also did not think he had autism. I needed confirmation and demanded a referral to have my son evaluated. He was diagnosed with PDD-NOS at 22 months. My husband, who was in denial, wanted a second opinion. We went to another facility in a neighboring state and once again were told that he had PDD-NOS. When I learned that thimersol in the MMR vaccine could be a link to autism, I immediately contacted my son's doctor and was told that my son's vaccine did contain this preservative. I was shocked. I wish now that I had informed myself about vaccines and what was in the vaccine and mostly the safety of the vaccines that I allowed my son to receive. I trusted that the CDC would not do anything that would harm my child. We worked very hard to help my son gain back lost skills and continue to do so. I have tried to educate other mothers about vaccines especially the flu vaccine during pregnancy. I have always felt there was a connection between the MMR and autism. I have doubted the validity of the studies that state that there in no link between autism and the MMR especially considering the fact that there seems to be a conflict of interest when decision makers at CDC are also receiving money from the pharmaceutical companies that are being studied for safety.
Jamie Wiseman Adams. My son had MMR shots when he was 2 1/2. I put it off a little bit for some reason or another. He received them at the Bear Run Clinic in Orange Park, Florida. He screamed and cried the whole ride home and that night he started banging his head into the floor!!!! He was a totally different kid and stopped everything he had learned. He never was unaffectionate towards me though but immediately developed autistic like behaviours, especially echolalia and adhd. He ran a high fever and developed some kind of rash looking thing on part of his chin! Years later I learned he had a major allergic reaction to the toxins in the vaccines. I wrote Tallahassee Vaccination whatever they're called and they wrote back saying basically 'we're sorry but the vaccinations help more kids than they hurt.' He went most of his life being misdiagnosed because Dr's didn't have a clue about autism. Finally at age 13 he was diagnosed with PDDNOS, tourettes, echolalia, adhd, and sleep disorder. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know you DON'T GIVE SO MANY SHOTS IN ONE DAY TO A TODDLER.
Laura Adams My son got his 18 month shots plus a flu shot when he was 15 months old per the schedule followed at his doctors office. Within 15 minutes after the shots when we were in the car, he passed out which may have been a seizure looking back now. Within 30 days he had lost all language, stopped responding to his name, and started to withdraw. Six months after the shots, he was diagnosed with autism and hyperkinesis. He is still non verbal because its only been a matter of months. He is going through therapies but no real improvement yet. My son had a few early signs as far as having to have routine or he would cry non stop. But he was on schedule for language and everything else up till the shots at 15 months. The shots were given in Brookville, Ohio.
Heather Adel My son started having seizures after his one month MMR. They were occasional and everyone tried to make me think I was losing my mind and imagining it. I did not want him to get two month shots but the dr talked me into it and that night he had 40 seizures in my arms. Every day after that he had 7 or 8 seizures that lasted 10 minutes at a time. He is on heavy doses of Topamax to control the seizures, which I think he started having seizures while I was still pregnant and on Reglan. At 8 months along, I changed OB-GYN and they immediately took me off the REGLAN and I was able to carry him full term but had been having contractions prior to switching dr's. Then when they immunized him it triggered something and they told me he would not live to be 5 and be mentally handicapped. He is making his milestones and shocking all the dr's. Nobody knows what exactly is wrong with him. He is still on high doses of Topamax and without it he is a limp lifeless baby. With it he is achieving miracles. I have not allowed them to immunize since his two months immunizations and I am so scared to do so especially with all the stories out there. He is my 4th baby and all of my other children, all girls, have been immunized with no problems, but something about my son is different. They have already started saying he will be on the spectrum and he is 2.5 years old. I really feel like there has to be other moms who had REGLAN while being pregnant and their children are autistic. Just like the Thalidomide Babies there was over 8000 babies born with deformed limbs etc., before they realized the cause was something they took during pregnancy, I will bet my life that Reglan is causing Tardive Dyskensia which is being misdiagnosed as autism.
Sophia Agnew Sophia was perfect up till 13 months - met all milestones and was perfect in every way. At 13 months she developed a small cellulitis rash on her forehead and was given a week of intravenous antibiotics, then had the MMR jab a month later. Straight away she lost eye contact lost her words and became like a zombie - would not engage with anyone, had chronic diarrhoea for 8 months, stimming, spinning, toe walking, screaming, not sleeping, terrified of going anywhere. The whole thing is disgusting and akin to murdering our child and I will do anything to get justice for this.
Ali Ahmed My first child (son) was given the MMR vaccine at 18 months olds. He was still developing fine then at the age 3 he was given another MMR vaccine. From being such a bright toddler he started to regress and would not interact often. His verbal skills started to deteriorate. At nursery they spotted it straight away and got him assessed. He was diagnosed with ASD within a few months. He is 8 in February but his mental age according to his yearly assessment is that of s 4yr old. Now my daughter is 18 months and my doctor is trying to pressurise me to give her the MMR. I told them where to go. Giving her single vaccines at our own pace. UK
Narelle Ahmed My son was a loving affectionate little boy, developing age appropriately until his 18 month old immunizations; then he had a series of colds, temperature, hand and mouth, lost his ability to communicate, and has developmental delays and behavioural problems and has finally been diagnosed as Autistic. Australia
Selina Akhter My 4 year old son developed advanced for the first 12 months of his life. He started to say some sounds before 1 year old. I have some photos of his own showing his writing or scratching or playing with his sister. After he received DPT shot he slowed down . When he received his MMR vaccine at 18 months, he developed sever bilateral ear infections, was sick pretty much for the next 12 months. He did not imitate our actions. He became scared of new people, new area. He stopped playing with his sister and prefers to live alone. He was diagnosed with PDD-NOS at 26 months. He stopped everything like imitating, writing, started to have meltdowns, silent seizures etc. I strongly believe that there is link between vaccines and his autism. He is still nonverbal. The shot was given in Dallas, TEXAS
Noreen Albright I question the Hep B in the hospital (he started wheezing and did so for about 4 or 5 days). We videotaped it and I remember it. The next reaction was the 3rd DPT and I believe there were 2 other shots administer. I believe the freak out w...as about 2 or 3 days afterwards, he did a Sensory Freak Out (6 months) he started losing control of his eyes and his right leg turn in strangely. He had diarrhea and strange stools (I believe he was shedding some of the stuff they shot into him). I also wondered about this ORAL vaccine. Then the flu shot (which there were 2 given and I know there was a recall around that time). New Jersey. WE called this reaction into his Dr. who downplayed it. A few months later I had heard there was a big recall. Of course, they didn't inform us either way. His leg (same one that turned in from the previous shots blew up (inflamed) and wouldn't go away for well over a month. He seemed to lose some eye contact around this time as well. Unfortunately, we continued on the vaccine schedule. After the MMR, He suddenly started acting drunk and off balance. All of a sudden the child who was eating like a champ seemed unable to swallow or control his tongue and body. He started having mini seizures/space outs and things got really ugly. He seemed to be having really bad headaches every time he got shots. He would hold his head and hit it. He stopped talking (he had said about 6 words around 12 months. I did not experience any of these things with my next child that I did NOT vaccinate. The child who had no shots is the healthiest, no earaches (which possibly could be linked to these vaccines/viruses), no fevers (which also seems linked to vaccines) and no REGRESSION (thankfully). As a mother, I firmly believe that the vaccines were at the route of his inflammation, diarrhea, headaches, sensory freak outs, loss of control of muscles. I don't question it. I also believe these Vaccines are responsible for Brain Damage because they "turn on" something that causes BRAIN ENLARGEMENT between the ages of 6 - 12 months. It's after birth that this gets "turned on" and I FIRMLY believe the vaccines or something in them causes the Brain dysfunction.
Olga Alexzanders My daughter Sasha Davidge recieved DPT vaccine at 2,5 months of age: cried non-top for 6 weeks and stopped developing. Today, 21, with me having spent my youth on daily therapies with her, she still tests in retarded range although it is a part of the brain that is not functioning that is meant to retrieve info: otherwise PDD NOS. We now are doing bio-med, stem cell therapy.. costs unthinkable, future terrifying.. services pathetic, government - criminal. Criminal element took over USA. My daughter was vaccinated in London, UK. Now in Bay area, CA
Elizabeth L. Aley My son was born after an emergency c-sect at 34 weeks, not breathing at birth, apgar scores of 3 and 5, in the NICU for five days on a vent, AND he was given Hep B WITHOUT my consent! He has a DX of Autism, SID, ADHD
Jenny Allan Vaccine MMR: injection arm Location London Date of administration December 2003 (age 12 months) No immediate reaction noticed, but it might be significant to note that Chris had recently been ill with a respiratory infection and had been prescribed antibiotics. There was a very marked change in Chris's behaviour over the following few months. He stopped 'engaging' with adults for 'play' sessions and became uninterested in books (VERY interested in both before the jab.) He lost the few words he had acquired. He had always been an 'easy' baby, happy, sociable and content, but changed into a screaming, challenging infant who seemed to be in pain a lot of the time. Chris's MMR administration was 1993. He is 18 now!!
Ray Allen Had MMR, severely ill, chronic bowel problems and autism diagnosed by age 5 years. Severely underweight. Perth,UK
Viv Alli I have two Autistic sons, both of whom were developing normally, until they were given the MMR vaccine in England. They then started to regress dramatically, from normal developing toddlers to under developing. They are now aged 24 and 23 years, are low functioning, non-verbal young adults totally dependent on 24/7 care. For 20 years+ I have believed that this vaccine caused their Autism. But have been silenced by many medical practitioners. Co-incidentally I have another son who is 17 years old. Functioning normally, after what had happened to his brothers I refused to let him have the MMR vaccine.
Valerie Pietsch Ammendola My son had adverse reactions to all of his shots and after effects from them like excema, hives, etc. His doctor never reported any of them even when he was hospitalized a few days after the shots because his fever wouldn't go below 104 for days. Doctors usually don't - so the stats that the doctors give you on their information sheets and the number put out there by the CDC and AAP are WAY off! Kenosha, Wisconsin
Hi! I am a robot. I just upvoted you! I found similar content that readers might be interested in:

On Facebook we call this trolling. I don't know what they call it here - strolling?
@cheetah is a bot. Some people don't link the article and make them past as their own. That's why @cheetah exist. He's helping to combat plagiarism.
Yeah, I figured that much. Still annoying.
Thank you!
Vaccines may not be safe for everyone.
But they are safer than catching the disease.
Just ask anyone who has to suffer for the rest of their lives, how they feel when they know it could have been avoided if they had been vaccinated.
I had an adult friend who contracted mumps - not a problem when you are a kid. Very bad as an adult.
No-one would go near him to bring him food, water etc because they were afraid they might also catch it.
I had been vaccinated, so I became his only lifeline.
Add to the complications of this, the fact that due to his immune system being compromised, his malaria flared up.
Had he been left alone, he would be dead.
Ask him what he thinks about vaccination.
sure, some people will have a negative reaction to a vaccine. Some people have negative reactions to nuts, milk, work etc. But most people don't.
If I had kids there is no question that they would be vaccinated. I would not wish those diseases on my worst enemy.
First:
Trevor, you're a good guy and a true friend!
Secondly:
Vaccines do not confer lifelong immunity. Mumps is a very easy disease if you catch it as a child (I know, for I've had it and one of my kids did as well). But if you catch it as an adult, it can be quite difficult. Sadly, since the MMR vaccine does not confer lifelong immunity, you are much more likely to catch it as an adult and suffer the repercussions of it. Had your friend had mumps as a child, he wouldn't have developed the disease, since once you have mumps, you have lifelong immunity. Sadly, not so with the vaccine, so you can thank your body for having strong immunity.
I'd steer clear of vaccines at all cost. There is SO much toxic stuff they put in those.
Parents should at least do rudimentary research on the subject, before vaccinating their kids. Start here, right on the CDC site, to peruse the list of ingredients. If you wouldn't let your child consume such ingredients, why would you inject them into his body? https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/pinkbook/downloads/appendices/b/excipient-table-2.pdf
powerful.... I am so sad an angry that so many people feel it is worth all of the autism in our world just to justify the increase in the vaccination schedule to stop non-deadly diseases like chicken pox and mumps, measles. Anyone who is using the argument that they would rather have a child with autism than risk their child getting measles does not know what autism really is, what it entails. I have no idea if my son will have a normal life or live in a group home with lifelong assistance when he is older and we are some of the LUCKY ONES whose child is not that severe!!!! America and the world need to wake up! We are being fed lies and fear and science that is paid for by the same companies that stand to gain from the fear. We are going to have a nation of zombies with sensory problems who need care - a nation of caregivers...but that is what they want....
