Yeah, people are all "But your mom has a suppressed immune system, what if you killed her off?" Um...first of all, I won't be around her if I'm sick (I realize it's hard to know when you're contagious). Secondly, I see her so infrequently during traditional "sick" seasons that... is it worth it? Third of all, there would be no way to prove that it was me. She's exposed to more people than just me and my dad. I've known more people that get sick from vaccinations than not. Now, do I get the usual booster shots for the weird diseases? Yes. But the stuff that's around every year, and mutates every year (and even by the time the vaccines are out)? No.
I hear you on the year-round allergies. Ugh! And just when I find one OTC med that helps me sleep all night, I'll develop a tolerance to it. Fan.tas.tic. Ooo...I might have to look for that Vick's plug in. I need to run a couple of errands this afternoon, so I'll put that on my list. =)
