When we had DD, we are debating whether we should skip vaccination for her as DS has eczema outbreak which stayed with him for years after MMR shot. After weighing the pros and cons of the vaccination, we have agreed to get both of them vaccinated at least with the few mandatory.
The story evolves around the widowed nurse-Kate and mum of two-Madeleine, who couldn't be more different in their approaches to parenting. All started with both their daughters are contracted with measles and they have not be vaccinated when they are babies. Mad's gal recovered after a few days but Kate's daughter(Rosie) is hospitalized and then infected with Encephalitis (This affects around 1 in every 1,000 patients with measles. It is an inflammation of the brain that can sometimes be fatal). While Kate is worrying of her daughter safety, Madeline continue with her life as famous blogger and somehow has stirred the anger out of Kate to sue her family when Rosie is in coma. This is where all the emotions and drama in the novel and Melissa has written beautifully to portray the dilemma of us mothers, who at the end of day is trying our best to protect our children, to keep them safe...
