This kid turns 18 today, and 18 years ago I took this kid to his first pediatrician check up after he was born. He was maybe a month old. I was interested in holistic medicine at the time, but I was just beginning my journey. I knew virtually nothing really about what to expect at a babies first office visit. The pediatrician came into the room, gave Liam a thorough look-over and then told me he would be receiving his first round of shots. Again, I knew nothing so I agreed. He received the shots and I left. While in the elevator I had this overwhelming feeling that washed over me like a wave. It was intense, and it was definitely beyond me. The message was clear. I immediately called my husband at work and told him that whatever happened in that office regarding the shots shouldn't have. The funny thing was is that Liam never had a reaction of any kind, in fact he sailed right through it without even really a fever. So I really questioned this feeling in the years to follow, but I still followed those instincts and I started studying the history of this subject (I am choosing my words selectively for obvious reasons). It was a worm hole that I have been down for the past 18 years, and honestly it was one of the main reasons why I started studying alternative medicine. With that being said here we are, 18 years later, and I am still on the same path. Our kids change us in so many ways, and becoming a mother really made me start to question and to step outside of the box. Stepping out of the status quo gave me the knowledge and strength to not only listen to my inner voice, but to trust it. Today I am grateful to Liam for coming into our world, and showing us that we are the best advocate for ourselves and especially our children.
