We have an awesome babysitter who is from a big family--she is the sixth of nine children. Well, I ask her if they do immunizations--Sebastian had just gotten his. I was just making small talk.
This sweet girl chuckles and says: "My Mom used to waive a few of them, including the one for chicken pox, on moral grounds. But finally, the doctor convinced her to give it to me when I was two years old. We came home and I was all cranky and miserable. Mom told the family what happened. The oldest child cried out, 'But Mom! Don't you remember? She has HAD the chicken pox!!!"
