MMR and other vaccinations..

I didn't hesitate about having my son get the MMR. Measles, mumps & rubella are all very serious diseases, which can all cause very severe complications, if not death. Remember the story of Helen Keller? She was deaf, dumb & blind after contracting measles. I decided that the possibility of my son contracting one of them was far greater (particularly now with fewer kids being vaccinated) than him becoming autistic.

True Venus, that is why I thought the posting by Jemlet was excellent...
