It's Not Old Age....It's Shingles

Kevin's doctor misdiagnosed him. Can you believe that. She said they were spider bites! Because he was still in so much pain we went to Urgent Care yesterday morning and the nurse and doctor there said he has Shingles. UGH!! So that is the cause of his neck, back, and shoulder hurting. Poor thing. It must be really really painful. He can't even sleep at night and always stiffining up because of the pain. I just pray that it goes away very soon and that none of us get the chicken pox because of it. I read on WebMD that shingles are not contagious but if you never had chicken pox, you can get those. So I'm keeping my distance as best as I can.

Please continue to cover him in your prayers.
