Thanks, Diap.
It seems that it's "our" age group that is the most vulnerable to attack. I've never, never experienced anything like it--not broken bones, when I was a rider (smashed up my entire rib cage and collarbone) and it was never like this.
I'm very glad you've gotten the vaccine. I forced my husband (through wifely nagging and his first-hand observation of the last 24 hours, I suspect) and made him get it today (Tuesday). I know, I said that previously, (I'm not that gonzo yet) but I'm hoping ANYONE in this age bracket that had chicken pox will run out and get it right away.
This should do some good, somewhere.
