Yes, thank you for the prayers.

So good to hear!

As I keep telling my asthmatic child "breathing is GOOD" (He hates using his inhaler, even when he clearly needs it)

Kids hate to be 'different'. My grand daughter came close to dying because she hated taking her Lupus medication.

With my kid I think he hates to show any weakness. He wants to be strong and burly, and sees his asthma as a weeny boy thing.



And he IS super strong and burly, much stronger than most kids his age.

Not sure why he is so critical of himself. ..oh wait.... let me look in the mirror

As some of you know, we have family staying with us until their home is finished. Well, it's getting close. In the meantime, one of the boys got the chicken pox. And now, a second one is getting them. She only got one shot for each one. And, they have a younger daughter... that hasn't had them. Oh Oh! Thing is, this first grandson got a mild case, hoping it goes the same for this other little guy...maybe the one shot helped?

The younger you are, then usually the milder.

My dad as a baby got them and had ONE pox. His mom got them at the same time and had to be hospitalised.

My dtr had a single pox when my older son had them. We thought she was immune after the mild infection. They returned with a vengeance when she was a teenager. I had measles just before my first pregnancy. If it had occurred a couple months later, the results would have been disastrous. And, I even had measles as a child. I hope it's still standard practice to check titres before any planned pregnancy to allow time to get those immunities built up if needed.

I thought I had chicken pox as a child, but when my first husband and I decided we wanted a baby, I stopped taking my bc pills. My nephew got chicken pox and gave them to me! I was 26 years old! Thank goodness I hadn't gotten pregnant yet. My son will be 26 next Tuesday!


Prayers all around for all Team Rachel!!

When I got chicken pox at a very early age, I had a very mild case. The next year, I got them again. Not enough immunity the first time around. After the second round, I was immune.
