Shingles!

Could it get much worse? Well I'm afraid so...I came down with shingles last Saturday. I had Nancy D sub for me on Wednesday and someone else today and tomorrow. It's so hard writing plans for a sub when I have no clue what I'm doing myself. Coupled with the fact that I'm not completely set-up or organized. I'm having a huge pity party -- I hope I'm well enough to go on Monday. The shingles are on one side of my waist so wearing clothes is somewhat of a problem. I will talk to you all soon and I hope you are all fine. I sure do miss everyone from Ames!!

OMG--never had them but understand this is just awful. Can be stressed induced, I am sure you have been told? Bob recommends putting tea tree oil on the shingles for relief. Get better soon. Hugs, Deb

Oh, Debbie, I'm so sorry. I've had them twice, and I know it's awful. I have a suggestion for you. Go get a couple of super soft camisoles to wear under your clothes. It really will help. Hang in there, babe!

Oh Debbie, I am so sorry. I have heard that shingles are just nasty. Your immune system is on overload. I will keep you in my prayers.
I really miss you,
