Doctors in this area have been advising folks over 60 to get the shots
for a few years now. At first the insurance companies were not covering
the cost, but when I had my shot a few months ago, almost 1/2 of it was
covered by insurance. Hearing Harvey's description of his shingles gave
me the push I needed to get it done.

Oh Ann,,, I wish Gwen had done the same thing. She is going through
HELL,,, much worse than I did and I had three months of not being able to
drive a car due to the seizure that was taking place. So it goes and
tomorrow will be better.
