Shingles


Barb is always saying we should get the shingles vaccine because she has heard about so many of her friends in Florida who have had terrible painful problems with shingles.  We found out today that shingles was not just a problem for old people when Laura came down with the shingles.  At first we didn't know what the little bumps on Laura's stomach were and then they spread to her back.  Barb quickly took her to a local clinic and the doctor gave her a prescription for an anti-viral medicine.  The doctor said that since we caught it so early it should react well to the medicine.  If we had waited any longer it would have been very bad.  When Barb and Laura filled the prescription the medicine came in a cool neon green bottle.
