The virus that causes Chicken Pox can remain dormant in a persons system for years and has the potential for reactivating as a secondary infection (shingles) at a later date. It most commonly affects older adults or people with weak immune systems.

I just got back from Disneyland, the most stressfree place of all. Anyway, it is much better,I am able to wear ALL my clothes again....TMI......I am not hurting, and am on the mend...thanks for the care and concern.... XOXOXOXOXOX Polly

I had the feeling some people misunderstood the reason why I posted this. 4000 posts is actually very modest compared to some other posters. I was really shocked that I had accumulated 3000 posts in just 7 months (5000 if I count my other profiles) but I like to take these little milestones as an opportunity to tell my friends just how much I appreciate them. A post count is fairly meaningless, good friends are priceless.

Originally Posted By ShivaThDestroyer >>I'll admit I've seen numerous profiles that I thought were you - just how many do you have?<< a gentleman never tells ; ) I have separate profile for each screen name. I usually post as ShivaThDestroyer from home and as just Shiva when I'm at work. Pirate Shiva hasn't been around too much lately, Daddy Shiva pops up on the smed thread a bit and one never knows when Sultan Pepper Shaker will show up!
