What do we do?

An_222145 posted:

My name is Tamara, my son is three and my husband and I are worried about getting him vaccinated due to autism. We got the first four shots when he was a baby but, didn't like the fact that they gave all four of them all at once. So, we didn't get the rest because of the stories we heard where the child got a high fever over night and woke up blank. We are wondering when does a childs brain and body develop enough to handle these vaccines?
