It’s scary, it’s coming. Anybody else freaked out about the swine flu? A child at our school got it. A boy in our neighborhood had it too. My niece’s school in
Am I panicking because I’m paranoid or because I’m prescient. I’m even waffling on the swine flu vaccine. Should I get it? Should my son get it? What if he doesn’t get it and he gets sick?
Since it seems there is a rush on vaccines, it seems likely we will not be getting it.
My DH raised in
And I’ve started to stock up on all sorts of remedies. I received some free samples of Boiron cough syrup, and cold relief tablets to try. Since I’m already a big fan of homeopathic remedies, I’m anxious to give them a shot. You can try them too- get a coupon code here:

Wait, hmmm…well, actually I hope I never have to try them, but it sure seems likely. I’ll keep you posted.
Did you enjoy this post…or at least found it interesting?

We are against vax too over here and eating healthy, and lots of fresh air does really helps.
Just to let you know I know more people who got sick after taking the H1N1 Vax (yes they got swine flue a few days after the shot) then people who did not get the shot!
And those with no shot had a milder version the the one who did get the shot!!! Ironic isn't it!!!
I hear what you are saying, however I have read and heard on the Larry King Live show that people who get the flu after the vaccine are already carrying the virus in their system. that is why they get it - they already had it.
Hi! I just wanted to chime in - apparently, my 6-year-old son just recovered from the swine flu. I say "apparently", because I never took him to a pediatrician. Just treated it like he was sick. BUT...the family with whom he was staying over Halloween weekend (long story) took their son to his pediatrician three days after my son was hit with high fever, when their son was hit as well. They got the results today - swine flu! But my son is already over it (5 days of fever; on the 4th day coughing commenced, which has only just dissipated today...). I forced not only a simple diet upon him and lots of water, but the Source Naturals' Kids' Herbal Wellness; occasional motrin to bring down the fever when it got over 102; and super-hot epsom salt baths w/ rosemary and sage oil. When the cough set in, I used Boiron's homeopathic Drosera Rotundifolia pellets to ease that and help him sleep through the night. Also...his entire Waldorf school was wiped out by a combination of flu (he was one of the first three flies to drop) and chicken pox. It was like a ghost town, teachers-n-all! But eveyrone's aallll good. Hope this helps you, or anyone you know. :)
