My mom didn't realize she had shingles and had blisters on her back. My dad got shingles from rubbing something on her back when he touched the blisters trying to help her. == From: "Debbie M.

My father-in-law gave it to his two grandchildren. My son had a particularly nasty case of the pox. So father-in-law was treated for his shingles and when the kids got sick about 10 days later, he moved in with us for about 3 weeks to help take care of them. Suitable pay back, we thought . My husband immediately got to the doc for a chicken pox vaccine. I'm glad he did, since our son was really sick. Debbie
