[Nfb-krafters-korner] Knitting with Shingles

[Paulette Vickery]

Hi Karen,

Oh, your poor grandmother! A few months! That is what I am afraid of. I
don't have much of a rash, and my pain is on my left side and comes and
goes, but is always there. I just want it to stop.

I will think about a class for the hat if it turns out well. I'll see what
it looks like when I finish it.

If you have and Chicken Pox twice, you better go and get the Shingles
vaccine. My husband got it and I didn't. I wish now, that I had gotten it. I
will certainly get it when this bout of shingles goes away.

Paulette

Paulette, I am very sorry to hear you have shingles. My grandmother had a 
bout with it once when she was in her mid-70s. She had a terrible rash on 
her arms and back and the pain was so bad my grandfather said she would sit 
in a chair and cry. It lasted a few months with treatment.

I've heard if you've had chicken pox you'll get it, and I've had chicken pox

twice so, if true,  that doesn't bode well.

I pray you have a speedy recovery.

Love the idea of little knitted hearts and other medallions. Please share 
the patterns. Perhaps a class?

Karen
