I am not one to go get the flu shot every year. I rarely get sick, maybe one cold a year, but I was in the hospital once for a week with type A flu, that was awful. I don't want to take the chance this year with all the nasty viruses around and the contact I have with the public. I deliver to too many doctor offices and one urgent care.
My hubby is diabetic, and our little one just started Pre-K this year, so they are both up for shots as well. I asked at a pediatricians office the other day what is recomended for little ones in school, and the flu shot and a H1N1 booster when available was the answer I got.
Since keeping a 3yr old in a bubble isn't feasable, we are getting her the flu shot just in case.
