My leukemia's back.

"doing better now" is at least headed in the right direction. Thanks for the update.

Yeah, it's all we've got right now. It's a 3+ hour to visit, and since she is still shedding the virus we've been hesitant to make the trip as I don't think that I have ever had chicken pox. I know, I know I have to get the shingles shot.

WAIT!!! Don't get the shingle vaccine!! You can ONLY get shingles IF you had chicken pox. The virus hides in your spinal column for decades waiting for a second shot at giving you misery. Someone that didn't have chicken pox can get chicken pox if exposed to the oozing sore of someone suffering from a shingles outbreak.
 
Good morning Team Rachel :frow

I read that over 90% of people over 45? Have had chickenpox. Not everyone remembers having them or symptoms were mild. Get the shot
