Funny how anti-vaxxers don't trust medicine, yet bring their kids to the hospital. Use your oils, Becky.

They don't deserve those lovely balloons.

There was an AskReddit thread not too long ago where doctors shared some anti vaxxer experiences:

19 year old comes on a gurney, deep coma, respiratory depression, foam issuing from the lips. Mother frantic. EEG reveals the pattern typical of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis, a sequela of common measles. It's preventable, people. But not curable. They buried him a few weeks later. Kid comes in after a fall and gets scraped by some rusty nails. Surprisingly is ok after the fall, we want to give the tetanus vaccine since that’s common to do after high risk exposure to make sure she doesn’t get it. Learn she’s never been vaccinated. Mom refuses. Call CPS but mom is connected to some big shot gov official. Kid goes home without vaccine. Three weeks later, kid comes back in with tetanus unable to breathe. Suffers irreversible brain damage. Now she is wheel chair bound and needs to be fed through a tube. Had a kid on a ventilator with a preventable illness at a major research hospital in California. The mom was anti-vaccine. The kid began to deteriorate and the mom spent a lot of time reaching out to her antivax community. One visited her in the hospital and said 'honey there was nothing you could do'. I lost it at that point. I work in a NICU and occasionally float out to the Term Nursery. Our Neonatologists also work as Pediatricians in the hospital and see the well-newborns on top of the NICU kids. The Neonatologist went to see a mom who was refusing the initial vaccines. When the doc told the mom the vaccines were recommended by the AAP and asked for reasons of refusal, the mom laughed and told her to “Do your research.” Do you research..... She told this to a doctor. Who is both a Neonatologist and Pediatrician. Double board certified. She also is our Medical Director, has a PhD in Biochemical engineering, and is a mother herself. My eyes nearly rolled out of my head. “Yeah, I’d rather my child get sick naturally than be exposed to chemical vaccines.” -a parent, after I spent 10 mins describing to her in graphic detail all of the ways preventable diseases could maim and kill her infant. My mom did not vaccinate me as a kid, as of two days ago I officially have rubella. Student nurse here. the most heart breaking case i ever saw was a 2 or 3 year old who was facing all 4 limb amputations because he had meningitis and it entered his bloodstream all because mom didn't vaccinate him. his limbs were completely necrotic, he couldn't eat (had an NG tube), and stopped speaking. you could tell he felt lonely and scared as hell. he got no visitors that i saw (even though he had 8 siblings) and couldn't play with the other kids on the unit because he didn't know how to play without his hands. crushed my heart.
