Is your child immunized?
Doctor: Is your child immunized?
Me: Yes
Doctor: It’s not in his records.
Me: Why would it be?
Doctor: What do you mean?
Me: What do you mean?
Doctor: Who immunized your child?
Me: My wife and I.
Doctor: What do you mean?
Me: What do you mean?
Doctor: How did you and your wife immunize your child?
Me: She birthed him naturally at home and breastfed him for the first year and a half of his life, and we both make sure he eats nutritionally dense organic foods. We also make sure he spends a lot of time in the sun moving his body daily out in nature connected to the earth, and pretty much only drinks water that comes straight from a natural spring without any fluoride or chlorine in it.
Doctor: But I asked you if your child has been vaccinated, and you said “yes!”
Me: No, you asked me if my child has been immunized, and I said “yes.”
Doctor: Vaccinations…immunizations…same thing!
Me: Uhhh…you keep using that word, but I don’t think you know what it means…
Doctor: What do you mean?
Me: What do you mean?
Doctor: (visibly frustrated) Never mind. Are you going to have him vaccinated or not?
Me: Why would I?
Doctor: So he doesn’t get sick.
Me: But he doesn’t get sick now.
Doctor: Never?
Me: Not really, no.
Doctor: Ear infections?
Me: Never had one.
Doctor: Is he allergic to any medications?
Me: I don’t know…he’s never had any.
Doctor: So why are you here?
Me: I’m beginning to ask myself the same question.
Doctor: What do you mean?
Me: What do you mean?
