Gardasil for girls

Both of my daughters have received all their Gardasil shots - it's a series of three.  They had no reaction to it, but I have heard that there have been side effects and even some deaths from it.  However, with that said you have to look at the bigger picture.  Yes, some girls have died from it, but where there underlying issues that affected/caused their death?  Also, what is the percent of serious side effects or even death?  I weighed the decision and chose to get the girls vaccinated.  Because I am a breast cancer survivor and was diagnosed @ 29 with no family history I want to give my girls every advantage possible to fight any kind of cancer they could face.  Although this shot won't help prevent breast cancer it can help protect them against cervical cancer.  And because I have had breast cancer that increases their overall chances of coming down with another type of cancer more so than someone who doesn't have a family history.

From what I have heard about the vaccine I don't know that it is necessary.  I think it has to be a personal choice between the parents and the daughter.  The type of cervical cancer Gardasil protects against is caused by HPV.  HPV is a STI and is only transmitted through sex.  If your daughter isn't having sex then there is no need for the vaccine.  It becomes a trust issue if you decide not to have her vaccinated.  Do you trust she really isn't having sex?  Or you can give her the vaccine and protect her no matter what her decision is.
