vaccinate. just vaccinate. please.

Oh no!!! Praying for your brother!

I had whooping cough a few years ago. I have no idea where it came from. I was vax'd for it as a kid and had my boosters and everything, but still managed to get it. It was horrible and I wouldn't wish it on anyone. (Although I did share it with Luke's teacher!)

I don't get the non-vaxing side either, but I have a LOT of online friends who don't vax. We just don't discuss the topic b/c they can get pretty heated about it. ;)
 
I hope your bother gets wells soon and you can dodge that bullet.

I had a whooping cough booster when I got my tetanus shot several years ago. Mainly because there was an outbreak then, and now as a matter of fact, from missionaries not vaccinating, going to countries where it's common and bringing it back here. At the time, my nephew was a preemie who had just come home from the hospital and I didn't want to give it to him.

There have been a few vaccines that were recommended and I was like, yep, give it. Including Gardasil for my teenage son, who could one day carry HPV and spread it to women who weren't vaccinated.
