my mom believes in western medicine. so does my dad. we got all our immunizations. they made sure we got chicken pox. they dragged us off to the doctor whenever they suspected we were sick. i have jumped through all the hoops myself as an adult.
according to my blood tests yesterday, i'm not currently immune to measles or mumps. (but i am to rubella.)
i suspect i am off to the doctor again right soon to get immunized for a lot of stuff.
(they did more than just mmr testing yesterday; i'm going to wait until the rest of the tests come back.)
