Does my child need 50 more?

I had just helped my mom through her cancer scare. In the two weeks leading up to her surgery, I put her on a strict protocol—flooding her body with nutrient-dense foods, targeted supplements, and powerful herbs to strengthen her immune system and support her body's healing process. We even did things the doctors warned us against—but that’s a conversation for another day.

A biopsy, analyzed by two separate clinics, had diagnosed her with Serous Carcinoma. The treatment plan was set—surgery, followed by chemo and radiation. But when she went in for the procedure, the doctors didn’t find what they were expecting. The surgery was abruptly halted. No chemo. No radiation. Nothing.

That experience shook me. It was my first undeniable wake-up call to the reality that even in life-or-death situations, the medical field is not infallible. Despite years of training, most doctors don’t focus on the body's innate ability to heal itself. They are taught to diagnose and prescribe, but rarely to empower patients with true preventative and restorative care.

So, as you can imagine, when I became pregnant, I intuitively knew I couldn’t blindly trust doctors with my baby’s health. Not long after, I started receiving marketing materials from my doctor’s office telling me I needed vaccinations during pregnancy. Immediately, I knew I had to dig deeper. Instead of blindly following recommendations, I wanted to read the actual vaccine inserts—the ones that come directly from the manufacturers, not the watered-down versions given to patients.

Thankfully, I happened to bring this up to a new mom friend at the park. She told me, “You have to get The Vaccine Book: Making the Right Decision for Your Child by Dr. Bob Sears.” It wasn’t an anti-vax book, but it provided exactly what I was looking for—clear, unbiased information about each disease, the risks, and alternative vaccine schedules that weren’t blindly following the CDC’s ever-growing list.

That book was my first real introduction to the fact that questioning wasn’t wrong. It was responsible.

And that’s when I discovered the massive shift that had happened in just one generation.

When I was a child, I received about 20 vaccines. But as I studied the CDC’s current schedule, I was stunned—my children were expected to receive over 70 doses by the time they turned 18. That’s 50 more vaccines than I had.

I remember sitting there, staring at the numbers. How did we go from 20 to 70+? Is the world really that more toxic?Where was the long-term research proving this was safe? Had childhood health improved, or were kids sicker than ever? Why were parents expected to accept this massive increase without question?

That was the moment I realized: if I didn’t take responsibility for my child’s health, no one else would.

So, let me ask you two questions:

1. Do you believe the world is more toxic today than when you were a child—enough to justify children receiving 50 more vaccinations than we did?

2. If you do believe the world is more toxic, are you up to date on the current CDC schedule of 72 doses? 

Curious yet? Stick around, and I’ll walk you through the current vaccine schedule—how it’s evolved, what’s fueling the rapid increase, and what the data actually reveals about long-term safety. As parents, we deserve full transparency—real data, real conversations, and the freedom to make informed choices for our children. No fear-mongering, no blind trust—just the truth.

Because when it comes to our children’s health, questioning is not a conspiracy. It’s common sense.
