it just never ends
Dan is sick - I came into the nursing home room and found shivering . I got out the quilt and covered him up , the we snuggled for a bit. But he was really shivering. so I told the nurse. But the scary part our youngest Beth has the chicken pox- and she was with dan at her most contagious. Right before the breakout. We have no idea how she got exposed and she was vaccinated for it. So now shingles for Dan could be in" the cards of life". One more crappy deal… Dan and I for that matter are both going to be at risk because our immune systems are impaired… I had shingles as a 5th grader, but that offers no protection probably makes me more vulnerable. Both Dan and I have had the chicken pox so shingles could be a very real possibility. It is what it is I guess. I think Dan actually had the shingles vaccine. But in our family - if it is improbable - then that is going to be what happens. If anyone wonders how or why I got so depressed well - this little slice of life, is the answer - It just never ends...
