Yikes! I should check on my vaccinations, I don't remember getting any boosters for long time, not even tetanus.

Our wings are not tired.
Yeah, I'm a baby about shots but would be a bigger baby about shingles. TB, yikes!

Not one, but TWO friends of ours got shingles in their eye, and it messed them up for quite a while. One of the guys had to take a long leave of absence from his job because his eye couldn't tolerate any light. Even when he was indoors with the curtains drawn, he had to wear sunglasses.

Oh, yeah, shingles is horrible and painful and to be avoided in general but I hear eye involvement is a whole other level of bad. I'm so glad there's preventive care available!

I recently talked to a lady who had had shingles 8 times -- evidently it took until the reliable vaccine came around that it stopped happening every single time she was stressed.

I had shingles in my eye and it was impressive how fast my GP turned me over to the ophthalmologist and washed her hands of me. I was still seeing him six months later.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

If I knew that every time I got stressed I would get shingles, I'd be pretty stressed about that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously.
My mother had shingles, but it wasn't that bad. Which she will insist on telling you, which I actually appreciate! Because everyone's always like, "Oh no! That's terrible!" and she's like, "Meh."
