Flu Shot

I was very hesitant to get the flu shot even while Walt was really pressuring me to consider it. I finally gave in so that I might be able to visit my grandpa in the hospital.

I've had somewhat of a mental breakthrough regarding my fear of shots, and this flu shot experience cemented in my mind that shots are not that bad to receive (as far as the actual needle part). I have yet to get over my fear of vaccination, however, and this may be problematic in the future. If Walt or I proceed to get the flu regardless of the vaccination, my fear of vaccination will, in my mind, prove not that unrealistic and I will have a hard time having my kids get vaccinated.
