Mom Says: Shingles…You don’t want it!
Stress apparently plays a big part in activating Shingles. No stress here this year.
So the first week of September, our human Mom started having Shingles symptoms. Then the full blown 4 inch by 15 inch rash front to back. Pain takes on a whole new meaning with Shingles. She spent so much time taking care of the Alz, cancer, copd, borderline heart failure (our human dad) and then worrying about paying the ALF. She had no time to take care of herself. She didn't know there was a vax for Shingles or she would have taken it.
If you haven't had your Shingles Shot. Get it Now! You do not want this.
We've been taking turns helping Mom de-stress, by sitting in her lap and purring. Well, except for Big, he just sits near by and purrs. He hasn't figured out laps yet. Mom says it all helps and thanks us.
