My heart grieves for each of you. I guess I shouldn't rely on the "comfort" level that I have achieved from my 17 month old daughter. We finally have given in and let her be "herself". We have been blessed, Thank God, that we only had 1 bad weeked where we should have given the shot, but didn't. I can guarantee you that I will not hesitate again. God Bless all of You. I thank God every day that I have my beautiful baby girl!
