Another Dawn, by Kathryn Cushman

Another DawnAnother Dawn by Kathryn Cushman

My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Another Dawn by Kathryn Cushman is about a single mother, Grace, who decides not to vaccinate her son and when she travels to visit her family, the son becomes ill with measles. Unfortunately he infects the church nursery before his symptoms surface.

This story was well balanced in showing the pros and cons of immunization. The author's medical background was obvious. It's a good story about a bitter woman coming to the end of her own self-righteousness and seeing how she was the proverbial pot calling the kettle black.

The story is good, the plot is good. Unfortunately I didn't like Grace and never real embraced the story because of that. Grace reminded me of me before I came to the end of myself and realized my double standards. It wasn't a pretty reminder.
