One of my friends doesn't vax and both of hers got whooping cough at 10months and 4 years.
I won't lie and tell you it was a walk in the park, both of them were quite ill for quite a long time BUT niether had to go to hospital, and both survived and got better within a few months. The 4 year old was no longer BF but the baby was and he definitely benefitted from the BM when he couldn't eat (they both lost quite a lot of weight).
When you made the decision not to vax you did so by weighing up the relative risks. I know it's scary when you are faced with the reality of the situation, but with no-vaxing you have to trust your decisions sometime hun! Eventually they are exposed and you deal with it as the generations before vaccines (who were generally in poorer health than you and yours will be, and no doubt got iller and died more often because of it!) did.
The only way to get immunity to a disease is to have the disease (or in some cases the vaccine, though not all vaccines use the actual disease cells to stimulate antibodies). Find a GOOD reliable homeopath to look after you all. My friends have a naturopathic doctor who understands and respects their aversion to western medicine and it makes a huge difference because instead of offering the same thing they don't want again and again they help them find alternatives.
