Even though Micah was vaccinated, like some children, he still developed a mild case of chicken pox. It only lasted a few days and you could still count them. There were so few and very far spaced apart. He really wasn't even uncomfortable with them, said Micah s mother, Barbara Levy. For a boy of three, it made a big difference.
Most children recover from a bout of chicken pox without difficulty.
However, we want to urge you to have your child vaccinated against the chicken pox if you have not. This will minimize life-threatening complications. Copyright 2000 Belo Interactive Inc., All Rights Reserved.
