all I know is it's a form of chicken pox. Poor thing it's supposed to be pretty painfull too, and it leaves scaring, so tell her to LEAVE IT ALONE!!!
 
:wave2: Hi Tracy and Kayla. I am not positive, but I have known girls who have gotten shingles along their hairline, above their bangs and I had thought that sometimes stress can bring it on :confused3 I am not sure if that make it less contagious.

Kelli, please keep checking in....I am worried about you!!!!!!!!!! stay safe.

:wave2: I think we are leaving to take our trash to the dump (DH just cleaned up some this morning :goodvibes ), to see Cars (finally :rolleyes: ) and to stop at the store..... but, right now DH and DS are playing videos games...so hopefully we will get going :moped:

Causes
You can only get shingles (Herpes Zoster) if you have previously had chickenpox. After having chickenpox the virus lies dormant in the nerves, and shingles occurs when it is revitalised in one particular nerve to the skin, thus explaining the way it affects a clearly demarcated band of skin only.

Usually the cause is a decrease in your body's natural resistance, which may come through other infections, stress, being generally run down, or occasionally, when the body's immune defences are affected by certain drugs or other immune deficiencies.

Prevention
You cannot do much to avoid shingles. It is not caught from contact with someone with shingles or with chickenpox.
If you have shingles you should stay away from other people until the blisters have dried (usually about seven days), as there are virus particles in the blister fluid. The risk is that people who have not had chickenpox might catch that from you.

Those at particular risk are people whose immune system is not functioning normally (who are immunocompromised), as for example in people on steroids, chemotherapy for cancer or those with transplants or with AIDS, so do try to avoid contact with people in these categories if you have shingles.

Kelli~ Congrats on the new home for mom! Good thing you have a couple of weeks to gather, pack and plan. :thumbsup2

Pam~ So glad that your mom is doing good!! Summer Timw Fun coming up for you now!!

Kathy~ I guess that teacher is NOT very internet savy! She figured that if she just deleted the link from the page that it would all just disappear :sad2:


Tracy~ Yeah.. like I believe you were at your Aunt's/Uncle's till 2am!! :p

Kim~ You're getting so close to closing!!! :wizard: :wizard: for the inspection!! and what kind of stuff is a 0200 stuff?????

Kayla~ :wizard: :wizard: on your moley/growth thing! Did it just show up one day, or was it there growing a little each day?? BTW.. we have a GREAT sleeping couch... sometimes I just choose to sleep on it :thumbsup2

Kelly~ How's Darren's cut?? Is it feeling better??


Update - I guess the whole darn school system isn't very internet savy!!

I spoke to the assistant superintendent this morning and he said he would get with the technology advisor and get it taken care of right away.

I just got home from work and started looking at the links by the addresses. All of the regular links come up "page not found." However, the one link that only listed 8th graders website and Andrew's name still appears. And at that point you can click on Andrew's name and bring up his homepage and from there you can get to any of his pages. The only thing is they have changed the physical address of his website pages so that instead of including his name in any form in the address line they have put PRIVATE in the address line. But all of the pages can still be accessed on the internet, including the page with his picture.

Kayla - the first thing I thought of when you posted your question was your spot under your eye. Did you get an appointment to see the doctor???

I hope he continues to do well at home, Kayla. That's great that he got to go home early.
 
Well, it appears as though I've gotten caught up and am talking to myself. :rotfl: I'll check back on here later!
 
Tropical Storm Alberto, which stengthened between Sunday and Monday, is holding shy of hurricane strength. As of 4 p.m. CDT, Alberto's maximum sustained winds remained at 70 mph, 4 mph short of Category 1 hurricane strength.

Hurricane warnings were issued today for a portion of the Florida Gulf Coast. A hurricane warning means hurricane conditions may occur in the next 24 hours. The warning area covers the Gulf Coast from Longboat Key to the Ochlockonee River. A tropical storm warning has been extended northward to the Savannah River on the Atlantic Coast.

There is a slight chance that Alberto could reach minimal hurricane strength before making landfall around Taylor County, Florida by early Tuesday, but the storm seemed to weaken a bit on Monday afternoon.

Locally heavy rains may induce some scattered flooding but the general area has been very dry lately. Many locales will pick up 4 to 8 inches of rain with isolated 10-inch amounts possible. A storm surge of 8 to 10 feet above normal tide levels can be expected in the warned area which extends from Longboat Key to the Ochlockonee River. Isolated tornadoes are always possible with landfalling tropical systems.

Kelli - Looks like you guys may be spared the direct hit but will get a lot of the rain. Are you all ready??? Keep us posted 'cause you know we'll all be worrying about you.
