MMR Vacination

Thomas was a very brave boy yesterday as he had the MMR vacination (I know this isn't a big deal in itself as all children should have them) but as it contains egg and Thomas is allergic to egg he had to have it administered on the childrens ward in Medway hospital. He cried when she put the needle in as he tensed up so she had to pull the needle out a bit and put it back in again, but he stopped crying within 10 seconds or so...very brave boy!
We waited around for around 30 minutes and thank goodnes he had no reaction so we went home. He was so affectionate all afternoon and was a very good boy...even when playing in his sand pit and with his new playing football. It so good to see him playing outside in the fresh air. Seeing the sand everywhere is another matter...but what can you do eh?
He went off to nursery fine and no problems this morning so I'm off to do loads of chores and food shopping..aren't I lucky!
