One of these days, I have to get
the Shingrix vaccine against shingles.
I keep putting it off.
But my grandmother had shingles and they were awful,
I remember her being bedridden.

They have just announced the death of Senator Dianne Feinstein,
and shingles was one of the things she was struggling with
in her final days, which sound like they were very difficult.

In the meanwhile,
Jimmy Carter looks set to observe birthday 99 tomorrow,
and Mudcat has a birthday then as well (but not 99).
