Can We Talk 2

Early Christmas Present

         For the second time, I have shingles. The first time was about 30 years ago. I've had the old vaccine. I've had the new 2-part vaccine more recently. I am probably going to be housebound for Thanksgiving because being bounced around in a vehicle hurts. You don't realize know how bumpy the paved roads and parking lots are until you've had an injury or a disease.

         The blisters are all sizes in all stages, red and painful. A few are itchy. It will take about 10 days to heal with the medicine I'm on. Sometimes you just wonder, How did I get to be so lucky?
