"ll of them suffered substantially, says Pamela: “[the eldest] had blisters mostly on his torso and his fever went away after a few days, once the blisters started to dry up. [her second son, five years old] had it bad, the back of his knees was so covered he couldn´t even bend them and he also had blisters on the inside of his eyelids. [her third son], three, had a very high fever for several days and was covered from head to toe." At first Pamela thought the disease spared baby Rahel – “we got lucky with her.” Pamela herself knew that a few years earlier, when her titers were measured, she had high levels of antibodies; she believed breastfeeding Rahel protected her against the chicken pox. She was wrong. A few days after the boys were sick, as they were healing, “I woke up in the middle of the night to her whimpering. When I turned the light on, I was in shock: she was covered with blisters and had a really high fever.”" beforevaccines.blogspot/2013/09/too-close-for-comfort-rahels-experience.html
