If I Could Turn Back Time, Korey Would not Have Received any Gardasil Shots
If I could turn back time, I would go back to 10/1/13, the day before Korey received the 1st Gardasil vaccine for HPV. I would not have allowed the pediatrician to give her the HPV Vaccine just as I had refused it for the previous 4 years!!!! But, I had not heard anything negative about Gardasil, and mistakenly, I thought she needed this vaccine. Why would our pediatrician give this vaccine if it was not proven or safe? If I could turn back time, Korey would not have received any Gardasil shots. The sad reality is that she received shots 1 and 2 of the 3 dose series. The first on 10/2/13 seemed uneventful. She received the 2nd booster on 12/2/13. This changed Korey’s life and ours as we had come to know it! She never received the 3rd shot since she became dizzy and nauseous within a few days of receiving the 2nd shot. The 2nd shot had triggered a downward spiral in her physical, mental, and emotional health.
