    I had chicken pox as a kid. I think the vaccine for it only came out after my youngest sibling was around the age for it, as she is the only one of us that got the vaccination and not the illness itself.

    Fuck this mentality. Nobody deserves to suffer that shit just because you and I had to. You’re supposed to try and give your kids a better experience than you had. Vaccinate your god damn children.

      I was really young when I got chicken pox, maybe 5 years old? The thing I remember most is getting winter mittens taped to my hands so I couldn’t scratch my butthole until it bled. It was TORTURE. No one should have to suffer like that if they don’t have to.

        I remember getting two weeks off school, the first week was a little tough but the second week was joy.
