The Right Place at the Right Time

Greetings,

Have you ever been in the right place at the right time for an event that brought out the best in you?   Like helping with a car accident or coming across an event in which your talent was needed?

Thursday morning I traveled with the Phi Beta Lambda group from the college I'm attending to the capital building in Des Moines.  We were going to be meeting with a couple of lawmakers & then take a tour of the building including going all the way to the top to the top of dome.

When we were seated in the room to meet with the lawmakers I "checked in" via Facebook that I was at the capital building.  An activist friend contacted me via messenger that a bill written to give Iowa a philosophical exemption was going to have a hearing in about 20 min & if I could go up to the hearing.  I told her yes & I would find a way to leave for the hearing.

After our group picture, I asked our tour guide where the House Lounge was.   She told me it was upstairs & next to the house chamber.  I told her there was a bill hearing that I wanted to attend to & she said that our group leader would probably understand me not going on the tour.

I quickly ducked out of the room to head up to the lounge.  Fortunately, I found a staff member that was heading up to the same room.  There was a lot of people there & it was quite crowded for small area.  This hearing was quite different than the hearing I attended in Nebraska four years ago. 

In the lounge there was two tables within ten feet of each other.  At each table there was a hearing with subcommittee's going on.  At the table by the window, there was maybe a dozen people for that hearing.  At the table for the philosophical exemption, there was around 75 of us.  There were medical professionals, a rep from the Iowa Department of Health & other representatives from the professional community.  I was the only lay person & the only person there that was for this bill.

The lady from the Iowa Department of Health spoke first.  She talked about how immunization rates have dropped in Iowa leaving us vulnerable to disease outbreaks.  She couldn't answer specific questions from the law makers but just referred the lawmakers to the print out she brought with her.

The next person to speak was Dr. Nathan Boonstra.  He is a pediatrician with Blank Children's Hospital in the Des Moines metro.  He said that by offering a philosophical exemption there was a chance to lower herd immunity leaving kids that can't be immunized or those with cancer vulnerable to getting a disease from the unvaccinated.

I kept shaking my head & kept myself from laughing from some of the things he was saying.  One of the lawmakers, asked if the MMR could be broken down into separate shots as he was questioning the safety of the MMR vaccine.  Dr. Boonstra told him that the MMR vaccine was combined into a single shot years ago.  He went on to say that he has seen kids become sick & die from vaccine preventable disease.  I have to wonder how many kids became vaccine injured or died after receiving vaccines from this doctor.

The lawmaker running the meeting then asked who wanted to speak next, I raised my hand saying that I wanted to.  I introduced myself & where I was from.  I told them I was with Vaccine Free Health & Iowa for Health Freedom.

I started off by saying my position on the bill & why I was supporting it.  I told the lawmakers if they took away our religious exemption they were against the constitution.  I mentioned that there was unclean animals in vaccines per Lev. 11 & aborted fetal tissue.  I named off the names of aborted fetal tissue according to the CDC ingredient list.  I then mentioned how the CDC has covered up the  vaccine-autism link for years thanks to Dr. William Thompson coming forward to tell us about the fraud involving the CDC.

I told the group that my daughter had gotten chicken pox for a 3rd time thanks to someone who was shedding after getting a chicken pox vaccine.

I told them this bill must go forward & become law to make sure all parents have the option to say no.  I was recorded but I don't know by who.  The lady asked me if she could put down home maker & mom.   I told her no, I was an anti vaccine activist.  She gave me a disgusted look & moved on.

The lawmaker that was running the meeting then said for the sake of time is there anyone else that would like to speak about something that hasn't been mentioned yet.  A lady talked about the measles outbreak at Disney & that more of these outbreaks will happen because of unvaccinated.  (She seems to forget the measles outbreak came from overseas ).

The lady from the Iowa Department of Health then restated their position & that the bill must be blocked to prevent disease outbreaks.  She kept turning to me & giving me a dirty look.  I kept my laughter to myself.

The lawmaker that was running the meeting then said he had serious reservations about telling people what they had to inject into their body.  Two other lawmakers shared that view.  One woman lawmaker said that putting stuff into our body was likened to putting alcohol into our body & then going out & driving drunk.  We had to think about what was best for the community overall.  I thought this was a horrible analogy.  If I get into a car accident with a drunk driver part of my safety equipment is my seat belt & the shell of my car.  If I get toxins injected into me, the injection bypasses all of my bodys safety systems.

The lawmaker running the meeting then said he pushing this bill forward to full committee.  I said Thank you.  I was getting dagger looks from Dr. Boonstra, the lady from the Iowa Dept. of Health & the lady who brought up the measles outbreak at Disney.

After the hearing broke up, I walked over by Dr. Boonstra who was being interviewed by a reporter who I would later find out was from the associated press. He just regurgitated what he had said during the hearing.  I was then approached by a reporter from the Cedar Rapids Gazette.  He asked for the spelling of my name & then again for the organizations I represented.  He had me summarize my stance again, thanked me & walked off.

I then walked out of the room & out into the spacious halls of our beautiful capital building.  I saw people from the hearing grouping up & talking.  I stood for a few minutes observing the people trying to tell us we have to inject toxins into our bodies but not accepting the financial responsibility if we become vaccine injured.

The reporter who was talking to Dr. Boonstra approached me.  She said I know you have talked to many about your stance & I was wondering if you had a few minutes to talk to me.  She was totally new to the subject & I spent quite a bit of time educating her on the dangers of vaccines, how much has been spent on vaccine injuries, the hazard tax per the IRS code & how vaccine manufacturers are immune from lawsuits.

It was interesting to watch her facial expressions as I educated her for about 15 min.  My final statement in my talk with her was - Where there is risk, there must be choice.  It showed on her face that the statement registered with her.

Almost 30 years of studying of vaccines led up to this day.  I had 15 minutes of prep time.  I didn't have my usual print offs to hand out to the representatives nor did have a speech written up or rehearsed.  Now that this bill has moved on to full committee, there is another hearing coming up.  I'm going to assemble my hand outs to educate the committee & our new governor Kim Reynolds so that they have the info before the next hearing & before they decide to either further this bill to the floor for debate or to kill it.

Until next time,

Lori

Bobby Kennedy - Be Brave!

Greetings from slippery Iowa!


Have you heard?   Have you heard who has been appointed to head a vaccine safety committee?  

Bobby Kennedy


President Elect Trump as asked Bobby Kennedy to head up a committee to look at vaccine safety.

Bobby Kennedy said at a gathering in California that public health officials can't be trusted.

Why should they be trusted?  They push vaccines on everyone under the one size fits all schedule.   Thousands of kids are injured or die annually as a result of vaccinations.   If vaccines were Vioxx, they would have been taken off the market a long time ago.

Bobby Kennedy has been an outspoken lawmaker on the safety of vaccines for years.   He is working currently working on a project called World Mercury Project .  

Bobby Kennedy tells about how the CDC covered up the vaccine-autism link for over 14 years.   The black community has been disproportionately targeted before.




Senator Posey talking about how documents were destroyed that talked about the vaccine-autism link.

Bobby Kennedy on MSNBC & talking about the change in 1989 that showed a jump in autism.







Read the Simpsonwood notes .


Be Brave Bobby, parents are depending on you & Mr. Trump to bring justice to parents of vaccine injured children.



Are you crying?    It's ok, let the tears flow.    Those are tears of frustration that are being released because of the years that the CDC has hidden the truth.   They are tears of joy, the years of saying the truth & swaying parents from vaccinating to not vaccinating.   They are tears of relief, our day of vindication is at hand.

Until next time,

Lori

Never a Dull Moment - More friends & family

Greetings,

So, last week my daughter, her fiance', their best friend & her daughter & her best friends mom went to Texas.  Just a couple days prior to this trip, my daughter started to develop a rash.  We didn't think much about it but my daughter wanted to have it checked prior to going around her pregnant friend the other day.

We suspected Chicken Pox as the rash was spreading quickly when she got back & was getting very itchy.  A doctor confirmed it.  We told him that this was the third time my daughter has had chicken pox.   She had the wild version 5 years ago & then again three years later when she was exposed to someone who had been recently vaccinated against chicken pox.  We suspect that she was exposed to someone who had been recently vaccinated against chicken pox for this time as well.

The doctor told us that when she is over this virus to set up an appointment with her primary care physician to get a titers test done to see if she is developing any antibodies to chicken pox.  He said that she may never develop immunity to chicken pox since she's getting it multiple times.

Another interesting thing the doctor said was this -

"It doesn't matter how many times you get vaccinated against chicken pox, you can still get it."

My daughter & I looked at each other & were thinking the same thing - What the hell?  Why push a toxic vaccine on kids when it possibly won't work.

I had chicken pox when I was 21 years old.  When she got chicken pox the 2nd time, I broke out.  I am breaking out this time as well.  However, when she had the wild version, I didn't break out.

The Chicken Pox vaccine is among many vaccines that are live virus vaccines & shed for 28 days.  Doctors do not tell their patients this.  The insert that comes with the vaccine say very clearly to stay away from pregnant women, the young, the old & the immune compromised.

Something else that you hear, is that you'll get shingles later in life if you have chicken pox.  However, I know of an instance where someone got shingles & had never had chicken pox.

My daughters fiance' broke out with a rash on one of his eyelids one day a couple of yeas ago.  His doctor told him it was shingles.  He's never had chicken pox.  Again, the shingles vaccines is a live virus vaccine & sheds for 28 days.  We surmise that he was around someone who had been recently vaccinated against shingles.


Like my title says - A never dull moment around our home.   Whether its the kids or our dogs, we are kept on our toes daily.

Until next time,

Lori
