Last september I went to the park with my friends and while our children played, three of us sat talking about the H1N1 Vaccine and what we planned to do for our families.  One friend had scheduled her 3 year old daughter for the vaccine later that week, and another friend, who was pregnant with her third child, shared how much her OB had been pressuring her to get the shot.

She told us about her sister who was a nurse.  The sister had received the regular Flu Vaccine and almost died.  She told her doctor how reluctant she was to get a vaccine while she was pregnant and he stopped pressuring her when he heard the story about her sister’s experience with the regular flu vaccine.  He said that with her “family background” of problems around the flu shot, perhaps she should forgo getting the shot.  So she did.  She gave birth to a beautiful baby girl a few weeks ago.

I told my friends that I had been conducting quite a bit of research, simply because I felt the hype around this vaccine “pandemic” was so over the top nuts, it just felt like something was off.  My friends know that we have never vaccinated our children, but were curious to know if we planned to get the h1N1 because the new virus was obviously so much more “dangerous and deadly” according to the media.   I told my friends that we would NOT be getting the vaccine, and that I was prepared to go to jail in order to protect my children.  My friend with the 3 year old daughter said she was going to cancel her appointment.  I also told my friends about an article I had read the night before that made the case that the h1n1 vaccine had elements in it that would cause sterility.

The article Squalene: Be Very Afraid part 2 by Rima E. Laibow MD made the case that “Swine flu” vaccine has adjuvants that impair fertility, Making people infertile is part of eugenics, thus genocide.

She also said,

“The plan to use this fertility-impairing adjuvant in the “swine flu” vaccine against a flu that has so far been far less irksome than the ordinary seasonal flu underscores concerns that this H1N1 mass vaccination programme mandated by WHO with the support of pharma companies such as Baxter is designed primarily to cause death and injury, and so significantly reduce the global population.”

In the article Dr. Laibow also quoted Gary Matsumoto from his book Vaccine A The Covert Government Experiment That’s Killing our Soldiers and Why GI’s are Only the First Victims, Kapitola 3. “The Greatest Story Never Told”

“Dr. Jules Freund creator of this oil-based adjuvant warned in 1956 that animals injected with his formulation developed terrible, incurable conditions: allergic aspermatogenesis (stoppage of sperm production), experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (the animal version of MS), allergic neuritis (inflammation of the nerves that can lead to paralysis) and other severe autoimmune disorders.”

From that day in September to today, I have continued to research, study, pray, think, listen, and write about this topic.   Was it possible an agenda to reduce the population with vaccines has played out the past year in America and the world at large?

Eileen Dannemann, Director, National Coalition of Organized Women

A few months ago I heard about a woman name Eileen Dannemann who was collecting the stories of Mothers who had miscarried after getting the shot.  The other day I had the honor of interviewing Eileen on the radio.  Since she first put out the word on her Progressive Convergence Web Site asking for documented stories from mothers themselves, she has since put together a database of stories: Progressive Convergence Miscarriage Cases on her website.

During the interview she told me about 70 anecdotal miscarriage stories, she said she had received about 20 phone calls from Mothers sharing stories directly with her.  And she also has data from VAERS, the Vaccine reporting system, set up by the government, and they have over 150, altogether over 200 miscarriages and these miscarriages happened during all three trimesters, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.  Many in the first trimester.  These ladies were actually forced to get this h1n1 vaccine.  She said, “I had nurses say that they had doctors tell them that you can kill yourselves or you can kill your babies if they don’t get this vaccine.”

She also said, “The h1n1 virus was being blamed for the deaths of 27 pregnant women, so we’ve been researching that as well.  It turns out that these quote unquote 27 women, you know, they didn’t do any, for most of them, they didn’t do any reliable test that they had h1n1, it was just empirical and other things that are not actually credible.   The CDC appears to be allowed to put out incredible information, without substance, but yet, when we show them that these two hundred and more women had miscarriages maybe two weeks later after the h1n1, but the sonograms showed that the babies miscarried an hour, a day, a week after the vaccine.”

It was an honor to talk to Eileen and I would encourage anyone interested in this topic to take a few minutes to check out the links tied to this article.  Eileen thinks it was the Thimerisol in the vaccine that caused these deaths and she does not believe that any squalene was in the American h1n1 vaccines.  Yet a simple test to check for squalene antibodies in the blood of those mothers who miscarried might provide the clues necessary to see what was the source of the deaths of these fetuses. The anti-squalene antibody test could confirm whether or not squalene was in the h1n1 vaccines given to pregnant American women over the past six months.

Hair Analysis has also been shown to be very effective in showing the mercury levels in the body, more effective than a urine test.  If mothers were given enough mercury to cause a spontaneous abortion, doubtless they still have high toxicity levels of mercury in the body.  Parents who want to know the truth should seek out these tests to prove that toxicity was a factor in the death of their child.  During the coming years, if mothers and fathers are having a difficult time getting pregnant, they should have these tests done to see if they were indeed poisoned with Squalene and Mercury while receiving the h1n1 vaccine.

I am so grateful that the American People and their doctors refused to take and/or administer this toxic brew in such high numbers these past few months.  The amount of vaccine left over is indicative of just how many people refused to role up their sleeves.  While the damage to those who submitted to the shot is great, especially for those parents who lost a child, if parents will take the time to share their stories, they can help prevent another couples loss in the future, and perhaps help shut down the Government Vaccine Programs altogether.

Please contact Eileen Dannemann at ncowmail@gmail.com to share your story.  Legally you cannot sue anyone for damages because of laws set in place before the pandemic was rolled out by the pharma companies, the CDC, and the World Health Organization.

It was announced today by the world health organization:

“Geneva – World Health Organisation chief Margaret Chan on Thursday decided to maintain a pandemic flu alert nearly a year after she placed the world on maximum alert for the new swine flu virus.

The WHO said following advice from a panel of scientists that although the pandemic had declined, cases of A(H1N1) influenza expected to continue in the coming weeks mainly during the southern hemisphere’s flu season.”

Many Americans are aware of the population reduction ideological bent of President Obamas Science Czar John Holdren.

The question I would like to ask President Obama is, “where do you stand on the question of Population Reducing Vaccines? And when you wrote the piece in the New York Times back in June of 2005 titled Grounding A Pandemic with Richard Lugar, were you just concerned about peoples health, or did you have a financial and ideological stake in the outcome of this legislation being passed?

“It is essential for the international community, led by the United States, to take decisive action to prevent a pandemic.

So what should we do? Recently, the World Health Organization called for more money and attention to be devoted to effective preventive action, appealing for $100 million.

Congress responded promptly. A bipartisan group of senators obtained $25 million for prevention efforts (a quarter of the request, the traditional contribution of the United States), allowing the C.D.C., the Agency for International Development, the Health and Human Services Department and other agencies to improve their ability to act.”

OK, so the whole world has watched all of you act, and act, and act… and today we were informed that the pandemic alert will be maintained at level six.  Articles have been written, movies and news reports have been made, lives have been permanently altered, and potentially millions of peoples health has been ruined, and/or lives ended.  My final question Mr. Obama is how much money did you make on your stock purchase from Baxter over the past five years and how dare your wife lecture the American People on health issues like obesity while the biggest health fraud of the past hundred years plays out and you and your administration are up to your elbows in the whole scandal?

Thoughts on Health Care

I’ve had a couple days now to process what has happened, and on sunday night Amy Philo joined me on the Radio Show to share immediate insights.

Go Here to listen to the show

Dems are obviously using the media to gin up some incidents of violence so they can clamp down on any dissenters.  I hope nobody caves on the freedom side of the spectrum. We the people need to have the ability to dissent, gather, and protest our government officials  as they attempt to enslave the American People.

I’d like to share an experience I had a couple years ago.  I’ve known for a long time that we were going to get socialized in America.  I had no idea that it would be this quick, or that those who set it up would cheat every step of the way.  But here we are, and I don’t really see how our side can get this thing turned around until Health Care collapses under its own weight of top heavy nothingness.

In 2001 I was writing my book Elijah Birth, I had conducted a survey of an online group of mothers who were all mormon and all into unassisted childbirth.  I was also taking classes online to get my degree from BYU.  One day I took all of the surveys and placed them in my filing cabinet and told myself that I would come back to the book later on when I “had more time”.

I was focused on finishing my degree, had pretty much decided not to have any more children, and was excited to be moving on with my life and giving time to some long range goals, including possibly qualifying for a teaching license so that I could teach high school theatre.

One day I was working on an assignment for school and I had the distinct impression that Heavenly Father wanted me to finish my book and forget about my online classes.  I ignored the impression and just kept working on school stuff.  But the impression would not stop.  It kept coming back for several weeks, and finally, reluctantly, I pulled all of those surveys out of my file and just looked at them.  The stack was about a foot high and it just felt like this overwhelming mountain of information to organize.

I prayed that day to ask once again if it was really more important for me to finish the book than it was to do my homework.  Then I had the spiritual prompting about Socialized Medicine.

I felt from the Lord that some day soon American Health Care was going to be Collectivized and when that happened, Heavenly Father would be forced to withdraw his spirit from the hospitals, simply because there are certain places where the Holy Spirit CANNOT co-exist with evil.  And when that day arrived he wanted a body of knowledge up on the web that would help the mothers of America to be self reliant with their mothering so that as they pulled out of that system they would “have a safe place to land”.  Grounded in good information about nutrition, exercise, and true natural principles of childbirth they would be better able to jump out of the medical model.

This spiritual prompting was one of the most significant of my life, and it created in me an urgency to go to work. I cancelled my online classes and left the BYU Degree on the shelf and moved into the world of Online Birth Work.

I had no idea how controversial and deadly of a decision this would prove to be.  But in the fall of 2001 I had the financial means and was able to put my books and the Unassisted Childbirth Conference up on the web using the excellent services of a professional web designer.  I had great hopes of a huge financial return for all of my hard work, but was never able to put in a proper firewall to make it impossible for my e-books to be “resold”.  My buyers would send along Book  links to friends and family upon purchasing them.

For nine years my books sold one or two copies a month, but some months I had six hundred people downloading them for free.  This irked me, but I was so grateful that readers felt compelled to share my words with email lists and friends that I just let it go and kept the site functioning as it had been set up, without the firewall to protect my intellectual property from theft.

This past year I had to take that site down for financial reasons, but decided to put all of my books and the conference up on Kindle and You Tube.  I just checked last week to see how the books were selling and my typical sales of one or two a month have continued on.

With the passage of the health care bill and the Progressives getting all cocky this week about all of these plans to further regulate the American Family and the flow of information, I would hope that honest hearted citizens, especially Mothers, would recognize that certain information in our society exists on the internet to help keep them informed and safe as they birth their young babes.  This body of information did not exist ten years ago.

I would hope that as the Peril of Hospital Birth crossed with Socialism becomes apparent, that those who are looking for something else outside of the monopolistic world of technocratic birth will find the mountain of information that now exists on the web because of the thoughtful efforts of dozens of activists who have taken the time and energy to write and share.

I don’t know that my voice is any better than the others that are yelling about Sovereign Family Living, but I do know that I am one of the only Mothers in the Alternative birth world who has written against Socialism and Collectivism under the political framework of Family Freedom.

It is my prayer that the sacrifices of time with my own family, lost hours of sleep (I did most of my book writing when I should have been sleeping), and financial indebtedness, will be accepted as they have been offered, in a spirit of love and humility.

I don’t know that anything I have written will be of benefit to your or your children, but I do know that those currently in power have hated what I have written to such a degree that they have been moving heaven and earth to kill my voice on the internet.

I plan to keep writing and if nothing else, the very animosity and hate that has been so directed towards me and my efforts has been about all the evidence I have needed to know that I have been writing exactly what needed to be said.

I have felt so protected by the Lord in this work, and so comforted by his Holy Spirit that all of the time, energy, and resources that have gone into this work have truly made it a labor of love.  And when Love is the motivation…the forces of evil and all hell raging against me have felt like annoying gnats that just need to be smacked away as the work goes on.

I plan to keep on as long as the Good Lord Above gives me breath in my lungs and energy in my body…but if he calls me home sometime soon, just know that it was worth it...

we did it all on our own

(13 Million in Pharma Whoring buys a bill from the Congress)

pHARMa: Putting a price on the lives of American moms and babies

“Two days ago, The MOTHERS Act and several other dangerous psych programs passed the house after being stuck in the 2400 page Senate Health Care Bill. Today, President Obama, a former co-sponsor of The MOTHERS Act in the Senate, signed the bill into law.

Two years and two months ago Dr. Ann Blake Tracy, Camille Milke and I, as heads of CHAADA, UNITE, COPES and ICFDA collaborated on a press release to be sent to the public, media and Congress regarding our opposition to The MOTHERS Act. We created a petition and within days we had hundreds of signatures from around the country. I spent the next two months calling people all day and sending emails, writing press releases and trying to update my website with the numerous radio shows where we would spread the word about the fight to save America’s mothers from an invasive government screening program.

Here is a reminder about what we were fighting and what we eventually killed in the Senate’s “Coburn” Omnibus, only to see it later re-introduced in the 111th Congress without the exact same screening provisions:

Information on Previous Versions of The MOTHERS Act: A previous version of this bill was steamrolling through Congress [this is the one for which the preamble stated that mothers “shall be screened” – which could be interpreted as mandatory screening for all moms], and did not pass due to valid problems in the bill including the fact that it called on using a method of “screening” pregnant women and new mothers called EPDS, a screening method documented to triple the number of women diagnosed with Post partum depression, according to a study published in Obstecrics & Gynecology. The Scandinavian Journal of Public Health stated that EPDS screening was unethical and should not be used. None of the proponents of the bill (many with pharmaceutical backing and funding) had objections whatsoever to endorsing such an unethical screening tool, and this bill would have passed with no objections from them, if not for the dedication of those groups that have no vested interests (ties to Pharma) opposing this bill that would certainly have lead to an increase of women being put on dangerous antidepressant and other psychiatric drugs to “treat” them. At best, those who supported this bill failed completely in their lack of due diligence on what they were promoting for new mothers, and for the psycho/pharma industry funded groups that supported it, their interests were clear.

What I soon found out is that Goliath was very frightened of our coalition. So they sent in their own wolf pack in the form of a few disgruntled mothers who presumed that they would successfully intimidate us into giving up. But we never did. Despite hurtful and hateful comments, personal attacks and lies, we continued on, growing our coalition to 54 national groups, over 13,250 public signatures and over 3,000 Facebook members. It’s difficult to count all of our supporters since word spreads fast online and people sometimes don’t even know where to find links to sign the petition even though they have written or called Congress.

I can’t even calculate the amount of money my husband spent on press releases, flights to DC, or the amount I have spent on incidentals just working to stop The MOTHERS Act. Countless radio shows and magazine, newspaper and TV interviews later, here we are in 2010 with The MOTHERS Act slipped into the Health Care Bill and passed with carte blanche approval from Democrats in the House after a tough fight in the Senate.

I find it ironic and funny to read on Katherine Stone’s and Susan Stone’s blogs a few posts congratulating each other for a job well done. All told several people are listed as getting all the credit for passing a bill that died every year in Congress for six years before passing the house in 2007 and being killed by our coalition in 2008. As you know, when the House of Reps passes something, sometimes all that they do is announce the name of the bill and its stated purpose and vote. Nobody wants to vote against something titled “The MOTHERS Act” though in reality it should be called “The Pharmaceutical Companies’ Dream For America Act” or maybe “The Axe The Mothers and Babies Act.”

When I started out this fight I had faith in the American system of government and thought that Democrats would never support this bill if they knew what it was all about. But it turned out that I started to realize I could not stick with one political side and trust that they could do the right thing if they knew about it, because it all comes down to pharmaceutical money and campaign contributions.

I remember spending days doing research on the front groups supporting the bill and the reps who voted for it and the reps and senators who co-sponsored it and coming to the conclusion that I was digging myself access to an endless rabbit hole. I gave up and published a press release that listed miniscule preliminary numbers of dollar amounts of all the people from Postpartum Support International I could find who had been awarded money by pHARMa or who worked on their speaker’s bureuas for pharmaceutical companies. Then I looked in the Eli Lilly tooth fairy documents for the front groups supporting the act and how much they had taken from pharma.

It would take all day to come up with a list of everyone I’ve written about over the past two years who supported this who took money from pHARMa. It took up so much time and effort on my part and despite my finds and leads, it seemed like it was a task too big for just me.

Then there was Evelyn Pringle, coming to save the day. That woman could take down the Trojan Horse if she wanted to, single-handedly. Probably a dozen articles later, everyone from coast to coast involved in the reproductive psychiatry scam trying to push this bill had been exposed.

But they just move on continuing to maim and kill babies as though nothing ever happened and many are probably still raking in NIH funding for doing so.

While sitting in a meeting in the US Senate office buildings last year I was fortunate to get to hear read to me a letter from the APA which they had sent to Congress to dispute our issues with The MOTHERS Act. That would be the American Psychiatric Association.

That’s right – The American Psychiatric Association takes the initiative to defend the program. Not PSI or Menendez or the DBSA or whoever but the APA. The group that was so extensively exposed recently that they had to cut back on the amount of pHARMa funding that they would accept to attempt to regain credibility.

But I just wanted to mention to those of you who are out there  frustrated by this thing, that we were up against amazing odds. Katherine Stone and Susan Stone forgot to mention a few of the people who helped them out (just a few). So let’s just give a run down of many more of those who pushed for the bill and could have contributed to getting The MOTHERS Act put into the Health Care bill because it obviously was going nowhere on its own.

(Here is a link to the original article exposing the fact that between $13,095,010 – $16,487,497 in pHARMa dollars were paid to MOTHERS Act pushers in recent yearshttp://momsandmeds.wordpress.com/2009/06/02/pharmapaysmasupporters/and all quotes below were taken from that article. The research was based on the series of MOTHERS Act articles written by Evelyn Pringle.)

Pfizer (paid Katherine Stone at least $5,000 via a $20,000 gift to MHA, another front group, for reproductive psychiatry lectures to moms, and Pfizer also paid off many of the other front groups mentioned below)

The most troubling donation to this Mothers Act supporter is a $20,000 Pfizer grant to a Georgia group to fund: Project Healthy Moms: Education for Prevention/Treatment for Perinatal Depression Disorders, which apparently ended up, at least in part, in the pocketbook of Katherine Stone.

The Georgia group’s June 8, 2008 e-news said the grant was for: “Project Healthy Moms: What You Need To Know About Perinatal Mood Disorders.”

The $20,000 funded 1-hour speaking events with Katherine, “aimed at educating practitioners and the general public throughout Georgia about prevention of and treatment for such illnesses as ante partum depression, postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety/OCD and postpartum psychosis,” the newsletter said.

Katherine was described as a “former postpartum OCD sufferer and author of Postpartum Progress, the most widely-read blog in the United States on postpartum mood disorders.”

E-news said attendees would learn: “One size does NOT fit all: Why postpartum depression is just part of a spectrum of mood disorders women may experience & what to look for.”

The newsletter only listed 5 scheduled events but told readers to contact Katherine directly by email or phone to schedule more. E-news did acknowledge that: “This special hour of learning is made possible by a grant from Pfizer,” but listed no amount.

Eli Lilly (paid leaders within PSI, Mary Jo Codey, Margaret Spinelli & Diana Barnes awards to be given to their favorite nonprofit.)

Forest

AstraZeneca

APA – over $62 million from pHARMa in 2006. In addition:

Lilly gave the American Psychiatric Association grants worth more than $600,000 in both the first and second quarters of 2008. In 2007, the group received over $400,000 from Lilly. The drug maker gave roughly $450,000 more to the American Psychiatric Foundation for the APA fellowship program. Pfizer donated more than $700,000 to the “non-profit” APA in 2008.

Screening for Mental Health

The front groups team up with a “non-profit” called “Screening for Mental Health,” to carry out mental illness screening days all over the country every year. Their websites also provide live links to internet screening programs set up by this firm.

Up to 2008, the SMH had received close to $5 million from drug companies. Lilly gave the firm $124,000 in 2007 and $100,000 in 2008.

Sherri Lusskin (involved with the leadership in PSI – reproductive psychiatrist on the speaker’s bureau for four pHARMaceutical companies)

NAMI – One of the biggest pHARMa front groups of all time. At least 56% of funding comes from pHARMa, probably more.

NAMI’s annual reports list about every drug company on the planet as a corporate partner without specifying how much each donated. But the grant reports of Lilly and Pfizer for 2007 and 2008 show NAMI groups received millions of dollars from those two drug makers alone.

In the fourth quarter of 2008, Pfizer gave NAMI a grant of $132,000 to fund a campaign that best describes the drug maker’s goal called the “Campaign for the Mind of America.” In the third quarter, Pfizer doled out another $225,000 to fund the same campaign.

Lilly is also funding the Campaign for the Mind, with grants of $450,000 in both 2007 and 2008. Lilly also provides extra funding to NAMI groups all over the country for the “Walk for the Mind of America.” In 2007, walking money totaled $17,000 in the first quarter, $11,500 in the second, and $13,000 for the third and fourth combined. In 2008, Lilly’s “Walk for the Mind” quarterly totals were $11,500, $24,000, $12,500 and $2,000.

In 2007, NAMI presented a $50,000 “Mind of America Scientific Research Award” to Dr A John Rush. He also landed on the Grassley hit list last fall for not disclosing drug company money to the University of Texas.

On April 6, 2009, Senator Grassley sent a letter to NAMI asking for the disclosure of all funding from drug makers and industry created foundations over the past few years.

DBSA – This group sponsored the CapWiz software link for sending private letters to Congress to support The MOTHERS Act, which Susan Stone directed people to sign and called a “petition.”

The Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance received $37,510 from Lilly in 2007 and $20,000 in 2008. This group provides live links to form letters that can be filled in and sent to Congress members asking them to vote for the Mother’s Act. The two Stone gals provide links to the Mothers Act alerts put out by the Alliance on their websites.

The group’s 2007 Annual Report shows this non-profit received between $150,000 and $499,000 from AstraZeneca, Pfizer, and Wyeth. Abbott, Cyberonics, Lilly, Forest, Glaxo, Organon, and Otsuka American Pharmaceuticals gave between $10,000 and $149,999.

The report also notes that a “First-ever DBSA Hope Award” for lifetime achievement was presented to Frederick Goodwin. Back in August 2002, the speakers at the annual conference of the Alliance included three stars from the Grassley hit list, Goodwin, Nemeroff and Joseph Beiderman.

The ACOG -In 2008, Lilly gave the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists $16,000, and a $2,000 donation was made in the third quarter of 2007.

The National Council for Community Behavioral Healthcare – described as “a non-profit association representing 1,300 mental health and addictions treatment and rehabilitation organizations,” on its website. This gang received $200,000 from Lilly in the first quarter of 2008, and another $215,000 in the fourth quarter.

Charles Nemeroff, SPAN USA and AFSP

Mother’s Act supporter, Suicide Prevention Action Network USA, has merged with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, according to a November 6, 2008 press release announcement.

A year earlier, Emory University reported that Charles Nemeroff had been elected president of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention and would begin serving his three-year tenure in January 2008.

Emory’s press release noted that Nemeroff had served on the AFSP’s national board of directors since 1999 and had “been a member of the Foundation’s Scientific Council for more than 10 years and was named chair of the Council in 2007.”

In about the same time frame between 2000 and 2007, Senator Charles Grassley’s Senate Finance Committee investigation found that Nemeroff had earned more than $2.8 million from drug companies, but failed to disclose at least $1.2 million to Emory.

…

Lilly’s 2008 grant report shows the Suicide Prevention Action Network USA received one $10,000 grant and another $70,000 grant. The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention also received three grants worth $78,000.

Lilly’s 2007 report shows the Action Network received $10,000 in one quarter and $70,000 in another. The Foundation got $25,000 in 2007. The 2004 spring issue of USA’s Network News reports that: “Network News is funded by a grant from the Eli Lilly and Company Foundation.”

The Summer 2005 Network News noted that “Donations Sustain SPAN USA.”

The donor list shows Pfizer gave over $10,000. The group received more than $1,000 from Bristol-Meyers, Janssen, and Novartis. Forest Pharmaceuticals gave over $500.

The 2006 Spring Network News announced the “Friend for Life” sponsors. Forest and the industry’s trade group, PhRMA donated over $15,000. Pfizer gave between $10,000 and $14,999. Solvay was listed as giving between $6,000 and $9,999 and companies that gave between $2,000 and $5,999 were AstraZeneca and Bristol-Myers. J&J, Lilly and Novartis each donated between $500 and $1,999.

Mental Health America

Mental Health America groups also received millions of dollars from Pfizer and Lilly alone in 2007 and 2008. This group runs a “Campaign for America’s Mental Health” and received grants of $200,000 and $300,000 in 2008 from Pfizer to fund it. Lilly gave $300,000 to fund this Campaign in 2007.

MHA’s 2006 annual report shows the group received over $1 million each from Lilly, Bristol-Myers, and Wyeth. Janssen and Pfizer gave between $500,000 and $1,000,000, and AstraZeneca and Forest donated between $100,000 and $499,000. Glaxo gave between $50,000 and $100,000 in 2006.

The Children’s Defense Fund received a grant for $125,000 in 2003 from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. The March of Dimes got $6,500 from Pfizer in 2008, and the National Association of Social Workers also received $7,500 from Pfizer.

And I can recall reading / writing about even the ACNM, Massachusetts General Hospital and others getting funding from pHARMa and the Healthy Mothers Healthy Babies Coalition (Susan Stone is a board member) being sponsored by several pHARMaceutical companies. The list just goes on and on, so I’ll just add this:

Et cetera

Lest we forget the saddest groups to support the bill, NARAL, Planned Parenthood and Guttmacher, whose obvious conflicts of interest here would be the fact that more moms are going to be choosing to terminate pregnancies when they become pregnant on antidepressants and other drugs due to the risk to the baby of death via miscarriage, birth defects, SIDS, stillbirth et cetera. And even if moms don’t choose abortion, more babies will still die with the implementation of perinatal disease mongering. I would expect groups like those to be a little more careful about the messages that they send because all it looks like here is that they are asking us to show them the money.

So congratulations Goliath, together you did it. And you even got your pregnancy and depression screening funding back in there thanks to Barbara Mikulski’s vague screening amendment. All those laundered dollars are a small price for you to pay considering the harm you do and will continue to do via the government-sanctioned marketing of reproductive psychiatry.

Time to pray for all OBGYNS, midwives and doulas that they will wake up and start protecting vulnerable moms from the wolves trying to prey on their lives and their babies’ lives. But until that happens we plan to reach out and do our part to make sure as many moms as possible are given the opportunity for informed consent so that they can save their children and themselves.”

My two oldest daughters are at the age where they have many wonderful decisions to make regarding their future lives.

Over the weekend I had nice heart to heart chats with both Michelle (21) and Allison (18).  We talked about many different topics but as I chatted with Michelle about the current divorce rate of BYU students, which is unusually high, we talked about the various current events that are lining up to deprive young couples of the ability to make it financially and still welcome children into their homes.

Michelle told me about some friends who had made the choice to birth at home for financial reasons.  This young couple chose to give birth alone in an apartment for married couples on campus.  The birth went well.  Conversely, she told me about a young couple that is planning a hospital birth, who are also in school, who have just applied for Medicare to pay for the babes birth and pre and post natal care.  $8,000 minimum of funding for this precious child, paid by the American Taxpayer.  (And if the babe is born by c-section, vaccine damaged, needs NICU care and/or Mama has psychiatric problems, that number could quickly explode exponentially)

As we talked about current realities around health care, preparing for the job market, and the choice to have children early in marriage or wait for financial stability before jumping into family life, one of the things that came to my mind was the Young Woman theme that is a part of the Program for teens age 12 to 18.  This wonderful program was the one I attended as a teen and with Allison graduating from High School in a few months, it is the program that both of our daughters have actively participated in since Michelle was 12 in 2000.

The theme of the program, which is said out loud every week by all of the young women is below:

“We are daughters of our Heavenly Father, who loves us, and we love Him.

We will “stand as witnesses of God at all times and in all things,
and in all places” (
Mosiah 18:9) as we strive to live
the Young Women values, which are:


Faith

Divine Nature

Individual Worth

Knowledge

Choice and Accountability

Good Works

Integrity and

Virtue.

We believe as we come to accept and act upon these values,
we will be prepared to strengthen home and family, make and keep sacred covenants, receive the ordinances of the temple, and enjoy the blessings of exaltation.”

Also associated with the Young Women program are a motto and logo.

The Young Women motto is “Stand for Truth and Righteousness.”

The Young Women logo is a torch surrounded by the Young Women motto. The torch represents the light of Christ, inviting all to “come unto Christ” (Moroni 10:32).

It invites all young women to hold up the light of Christ by keeping His commandments.

As I chatted with the girls about the financial bondage that comes with students loans and living on credit to “get the degree” as so many of their friends are doing, and the realities of the current bleak job market, I asked them if they truly wanted to be full time stay at home mothers.  I told them that perhaps the greatest gift they could offer to future husbands was simply a strong and healthy body, a willing heart, no credit card debt, and no students loans to pay off during the early years of their marriages.

As we discussed these important issues, I wondered about the message that is being sent to our young daughters, the future Mothers of the next generation.  Mormon culture is riddled with mixed messages on how best to live and provide for our families.  On the one hand young couples are encouraged to get an education, to be as educated as possible to compete in the worlds work force.  And the message that accompanies that directive is that the most ideal job situations are those that include full health and dental benefits.  “Honorable” work is often touted as being those jobs that will provide the health care “necessary” to have a family.

A mixed message in the assumption that the only way and means of being parents and providing well for our children to is be able to take our babes to the doctor when they are sick or when they are being born.

Sometimes I wonder if the mixed message sent to the young mormon girls tacked on to the list of desirable attributes outlined in the Young Woman theme could also include:

Faith

Divine Nature

Individual Worth

Knowledge

Choice and Accountability

Good Works

Integrity and

Virtue

Give Birth in the Hospital

Use Psychiatric Meds for Depression

Vaccinate your Children

Don’t ask Questions

Mormon culture is defined by Family Life and if that Family life is being damaged by the current economic realities around the health care boondoggle, I would challenge young couples, just as I challenged my young daughters this past weekend, to think out of the current societal box and consider that a healthy family can and even should be created without the bells and whistles of medical orthodoxy and practice as a vital portion of the family budget.

It is obvious that many young couples are in fact weaning away from medical birth and taking personal responsibility for the health and wellbeing of their families. Some young Mormon couples are also engaged in varying degrees of responsibility, but too many seem skittish to take on these important responsibilities until they have the job, the degree,  or the private health care that is constantly pushed by well meaning religious leaders and parents who have not considered that any other reality beyond what is socially acceptable exists.

Many couples are simply crushed by the economics of husband/wife indebtedness, student loans, credit card debt, and unrealistic financial expectations once they graduate from school.

For those couples who truly plan to welcome a large family into their home, these economic realities should be confronted head on, alternatives to current socially acceptable ways and means of birthing and healing children should be explored, and extended family in the form of grandparents and siblings should embrace the choices of these young couples as they wean from the current overpriced medical nightmare.

Parents should be asking questions, lots of questions, and if the pediatrician does not like the questions and threatens to dump them as patients, DUMP AWAY!

Some families who question the number of vaccines currently being offered to babes are finding themselves pounding the pavement looking for a supportive pediatrician.

I don’t know that my children and their spouses will choose to give birth alone at home, nor do I know that they will turn their backs on all toxic medicines and dental care.  The overwhelming pressure to use vaccines, antibiotics, toxic mercury amalgams in the teeth, and Allopathic Drugs and Surgery is such a huge part of American Culture, I am not sure if they will be able to pull away and keep their little ones free from all of the toxic “healing”.  But I would like them to know that if and when they choose to pull out of those systems of health care, a safe place will be waiting that is filled with empowering information, sound natural healing, and financial freedom.

It will be interesting to see how things develop.  Paul and I have made our choices regarding health care for our children, and they will also have to make similar choices for an in behalf of their little ones and then live with the consequences, whatever they may be.

It is my prayer that as my daughters become Mothers they will be wise in how they use the family dollars available for health care, and if and when they choose to learn the many skills of self reliant mothering, I would hope that they will be supported by family and friends and not beat up too badly by societal expectations and faulty traditions of all things medical all the time.
