I am not aiming this to be a debate. So please. Say nice things and answer my questions. Or a plague on all your houses.
FI has a cousin with a 14 month old son whom she has chosen not to vaccinate. He is currently living in an area where there is a measles outbreak (or maybe was in the last two weeks?). We have twin boys attending our reception that will be right around two months old. So they are not vaccinated. I know that if these two boys get sick because I didn't attempt to keep space between the kids, I will feel so awful. I would just be beside myself.
I don't know what to do. I don't think it's my place to police parents(which I totally know it's not) but like I said, if these boys get sick... Or at least maybe let the mom of the twins know "hey, I know there's a little boy who does not have his vaccines (there will be multiple little boys, so I'm not singling out this one boy) so whatever you choose to do with that info...." Meaning leave the twins at home or all of the family chooses to stay at home.
Or if this entire thing is a nonissue and I need to go back to worrying about hotel bags and ceremony music. I honestly feel like I'm running some sort of animal hotel "Excuse me ma'am, does little Lassie have all her shots? No? Well she can't come and play." Ugh.
And the little boy in question is not sick or exhibiting. I asked my friend who is a virologist though that he could have it in the incubation phase by the time they come to the wedding. And to my knowledge, he has not been exposed. - just for some background. So like I said, this is probably a nonissue.
I just need a beer. Or seven.
