One mom is hoping to change parents’ anti-vaccination view with a video of her sick baby, who was diagnosed with whopping cough. Her baby has been sick for over 20 days but will get better — thanks to a vaccine.
“I’m tired. Damn tired,” the mom, Rebecca Harreman, posted with her video. “I’ve been on duty for over 3 weeks having to wake every single time my baby boy coughs for fear he will stop breathing. Every. Single. Time. I cannot and will not pass that duty to anyone else, because I just can’t sleep.So for those of you sitting on the fence on whether to vaccinate yourself and your kids or not… maybe this video will convince you.”
