Nope. But I did get the chicken pox as a kid. By St. Boogar and all the saints at the backside door of Purgatory! |

I had measles, mumps and chicken pox as a child.
I was 3 when I had the measles. I remember being sick - and my parents kept me in a dark room because measles causes photosensitivity. (It also depletes the body's stores of vitamin A - which is why blindness sometimes occurs after a bout with the measles. That didn't happen to me.) We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

I got lucky. It snuck up on me in my late 20s, I never would have known I'd ever came in contact with it if I hadn't gotten pregnant the second time and tested positive for the virus antibodies which I didn't have during my first prenancy and I've never been vaccinated for. Chicken pox snuck up on me too in my early 30s. | |

Same here. It wasn't fun. "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

Yes, had measles and mumps within a couple of weeks of each other, being a second child, mum not as strict able getting vaccinations  . But have never had chicken pox, so when I decided to have children, had to pay for the vaccination for that.[Edited 9/20/12 17:29pm] You know you are in love, when you cannot fall asleep because your reality is finally better than your dreams - Dr Seuss | |
