I’m worried for Kate Birch and Cilla Whatcott, authors of The Solution:Homeoprophylaxis: The Vaccine Alternative, A Parent’s Guide to Educating Your Child’s Immune System.  They are putting themselves in the middle of a battleground where arrows will likely fly. Anyone who slices at the market share of big pharma and  government could find themselves in the crosshairs.

Yet, I admire their courage, for this is a bold book.  Homeopaths are aware of the technique theses authors  present, but  the general public is not.  It’s high time that  someone with pluck gets this vital information spread about to those who matter……parents.

Yes, yes, we know that vaccines  are ill-founded and  the result of an outdated invention that  has been shown to often cause greater risk than the illness from which  they’re intended to protect. The word vaccine, indeed  ought to strike  apprehension in the mind of  parents.  This kind of reaction is a healthy, protective response that for too long has been  marketed and intimidated out of  parents.   These authors address that.  But the spotlight of their discourse is what to do next and a schedule of how to do it.

Their  strategy is like a shot in the arm.   The path laid out in the 100 plus pages is intelligent, well researched and offers a step by step plan of action.

So this is not just the story behind a story.  It’s not even  a full dissertation on the harm of  vaccines…… it offers a viable, complete chart that parents can embrace as the final answer to the question, “ If I don’t vaccinate my children, what  do I do to protect them?” There it is in black and white, the entire schedule of how to  use specific, simplified homeopathic protection for whooping cough before it comes to your town, for pneumonia, even tetanus.

Run, don’t walk to your keyboard and buy a copy for yourself, one for your in-laws and  another for your chiropractor. If you’re fortunate enough to have fallen into a pediatric practice that’s principled,  give a copy to the doctor as well. Then follow it step by step.

The audacity! The gallant where-with-all to link arms and defiantly oppose an archaic, relentless approach and then offer a practical strategy in its place.

Ms. Birch and Ms. Whatcott are my kind of women….my kind of homeopaths.  I don’t know them, but I hope to shake their hands  one day.  I’m figuring that  theirs will be a firm grip. It will give me assurance that I needn’t worry so much about them and can instead  apply my efforts directing my clients and students to  their  little masterpiece.
