I can't tell if you're grinning or not as you write this. Bless your sweet heart! How unbelieveable. Praying for you and little one. Do you know what you're having?
ReplyDeleteJo, thanks for your prayers! We are having a girl. And I feel a lot better now (mentally) that my OB thinks that the baby will probably not be affected by the shingles. Just trying to keep my humor and joy in all situations. :) Sometimes it's hard to do!
ReplyDeletepraying for you. i know it can't be any fun!
ReplyDeleteWill be praying for you. If I lived in the Lone Star state I would love to go to Sonic for you.
ReplyDeleteI had Shingles in my 30's. So, it's not entirely and old persons illness! And you're right, it's not fun. But, I was not pregnant, which would make it even less fun. Sending prayers your way!
ReplyDeleteSO glad you're feeling better as I read this. You always make me laugh! Even when we both feel like crying.
ReplyDeleteHang in there! :-)
Lisa, at the age of 29, started medical school with shingles around her eye. No one mentioned her hair hanging over one side of her face. Good to hear you are doing better. Being over 60 has its advantages. I got a shingles shot and coffee an McDonalds cost 50 cents. Good luck!
