I've had several shots over the years for various reasons.

-pencil point into my wrist by another small child (3rd grade at the time)

- stepped on a rusty nail

- cut by a knife while slicing a coconut

- fell and twisted my toe while cleaning a bathroom (the toe nail had to be pulled)

- cat bite

I'm now overdue for one. I don't look forward to getting one.

Every time --- my arm grows the size of the Hindenburg, I get a fever over 103 and it hurts.

The last time, the nurse said "most people don't get a reaction" I said, "I will and I'll give you a call when it happens."

A day later I called and told her... she gasped.
