Day Three Hundred and Forty Nine: Caretaker

It’s that time of year again.
That time of year when everyone I know is getting sick. Sick, sick, sick. Madison is sick, Taylor is sick. Hell, my dog was sick. But that is a story for another day. The main thing to remember is that everyone is getting sick around me.
I have been vaccinated against every ailment known to mankind at this point. The fun thing about Crohn’s is that it puts you on a very special list. This list tells every pharmacy in existence that they need to give you all the shots. Most people get a flu shot. Maybe. If they feel like it. I however get them all: Measles, mumps, rubella, yellow fever and everything else.
So yeah, my roommates and my coworkers and even my dog are all sick. But I am doing my best not to get sick. I pretty much guarantee that I will get sick someday soon, but for now I’m staving it off. Besides, it’s my time to take care of Madison and Taylor.

Challenge to my Readers:

Get your shots. Vaccinate your kids.
