With the flu ravaging, we thought we better go ahead and take care of it. A dear friend's nephew has been very ill with H1N1 and is still in the hospitalized. And most of you have probably seen Leslie Creekmore's tragic story (I'll be participating in a fundraiser for her March 1 - details later). We decided better safe than sorry with all we are exposed to at 2 schools and 2 workplaces.
Well, Walgreen's wouldn't give Aiden the flu shot because you have to be 7. Really? Since when? Last season he was 5 when he got the shot at Wal-Mart. If the great "they" want us all to be vaccinated, they need to make it easy for us to make it happen. WM on Pleasant Grove has a clinic for the shots, but it's only open T-Th 11-4. I really hate that I have to take off work, pick my kid up early from school, and go to a germ-infested doctor's office waiting room to get a flu shot.
I know we're kind of late getting it, but we're doing the best we can. Work with me here people. I guess I will be doing some research to find a solution that hopefully doesn't involve the clinic.
If anybody knows of a good place that will administer to my son and his parents, please share. In the meantime hand sanitizer is my friend.
