“The Accident”

"I swear, I don't need my tetnus shot! It's too painful!" I shouted at my mom.

"You still need you're shot. Do you want an infection!" she argued.

My arm had been bitten by Sugar the cat. The wound on my upper right arm was bloodied and swollen. I was cradling her when she lashed back and bit me. My mother is currently driving me to the nearest doctor to our home. She claims that if I do not vaccinate for this, I can sustain an infection that may even be fatal.

"Fine, now I believe you." I responded in a calm tone of voice.

I am starting to believe that vactionation for children is actually crutial to my health. I do not think I want an infection.

"Good, once you get you're vacination, nothing bad will ever happen again with those rusty nails you were playing with," she awnsered. "this will prevent other illnesses too, honey. It will stop the spread of some. We need to keep your health tip-top."

I stare in silence out the window, watching vibrant colored vehicles speed by.

"This will also stop chicken pox, whooping cough, and HPV."

"Mmh." I thought.

The pain I will endure will be worth it. The vacination can prevent me from being contagious towards my friends at school. My mom swings the door open to the office.

"Hello, my daughter was just bitten by the family kitten. Can she have a tetnus vacationation?"

"Yes, we will do this imediatly." the woman countered with centering a bucket of loliepops on the desk.

I ended the day the a smiley face bandage on my arm and an acute,keen pain. The lesson of my story is to always never take a chance for your health because it may be fatal.
