Guys I'm asking anyone who would to say a prayer for my son Russell. He contracted the shingles on the left side of his face and head and is in danger of loosing the eyesight in his left eye. After having the shingles myself I know what type pain he is in so I went to visit him yesterday. The virus has moved into his left eye and basically already taken most of his vision in that eye. The doctors say it's possible he may totally loose the use of that eye or totally recover. He's using a salve in the affected eye and in terrible pain.
I've always thought the shingles were an old persons desiese but he's 33 and the Doctor told him the virus was activated by a steroid shot he recently got for a RSV ailment. I've posted this before and will again, if you are 50 or above and believe in preventative vaccines please go get a shingles vaccine. Believe me after my 6 month ordeal with this nasty virus, you do not want any part of it and a simple shot could prevent the misery that goes along with the onset of this virus.
Thanks in advance for those who would include my son in their prayers.

Prayers for your son Ivey. I watched my wifeβs grandmother contract it while in hospice care at my home. Iβve never had it but seeing her suffer with it was so sad on top of her respiratory issues. My understanding is it comes on when your immune system is weak and compromised. Prayers for a good outcome.
Prayers for your son, Iveyππ

God is good and has been good to me and answered many prayers. Prayer and faith are key. May God be good to and bless all of you!!
Prayers out. My dad had shingles and was the only time I saw him cry other than when he dislocated his thumb, which I put back in place.
I got my shot for it when it first came out. Call me smart or a coward, I don't care.
I have had pain past the "1-10" that the doctors chart has, 3 times in my life and never want it again.
Thank you my friend and I will pray for your son to be healed by our Lord Jesus Christ .
I myself had an ailment with my heart and we prayed for my heart to be healed . One year and a half later I got an early Christmas gift my Lord healed my heart.
I had an enlarged heart and enlarged left ventricle that just disappeared. Normal now
Cardiologist and nurse were in loss for words . Miracles do happen my friend.
Make sure he's taking supplements .They may help. π

Sorry to hear about your son sending prayers πππ for Russell and for you Ivey the pain you are going through also πππ
Prayers for Russel have been sent and will continue. Iβve seen a few family members get shingles (grandpa, uncle and my wife). Itβs a horrible affliction I wish it on no one! ππ»ππ»ππ»ππ»ππ»ππ»
