This video discloses the story of Chloe Reynoso, who was an aspiring ballerina that was home-schooled until the end of grade seven. Wishing to change over to public school for grade 8, Chloe was told that she had to get her vaccinations up to date in order to do so. After her first round of vaccines Chloe was showing signs of severe fatigue and sleepiness. After the second round of vaccines two months later, her mother described what was happening when she would take her daughter out to her high-end ballerina school at the University of Irvine:
Couldn’t, couldn’t get her to… we’d drive to, a 45 minute drive one way and she’d go to dance at the ballet academy that was expensive and not dance, and just lay there… and, she would’ve wanted to dance, but she couldn’t, she couldn’t function, she was, her brain, she would just look at you in space. She started losing all of her, turning grey, she lost all of the muscle tone in her face, her lips were turning blue…her blood pressure was dropping, we couldn’t get her to wake up…

I don’t ever remember being given herbal remedies when I was growing up. Instead, it was the dreaded pink Pepto Bismol, or aspirin, or the new kid on the block, Tylenol. Nowadays drugs have become the norm, are advertised on TV but you can’t make a statement or claim that a herb, food, or plant can possibly cure an illness.
I guess my mother didn’t have any role models to teach her natural healing and thus, couldn’t pass it along to me. So, when my own children were young, I followed suit, not knowing any better. I gave them antibiotics when the doctor deemed them necessary. Ditto any other prescription or over-the-counter drug. Oh, how I wish I had had a Dr. Aviva Romm-type around when I was younger.

Sure, we live in a capitalistic country, and more power to the people who run businesses and make a good living selling goods and services. But, all of those who knowingly make money off other people’s demise should be shut down and fined, and maybe even jailed. That rule of thumb should go for companies, organizations and corporations too, not to mention regulatory agencies, but that’s more of a utopian world, that doesn’t exist, and from the looks of things, probably never will.
