Stayed there for a while and then got back into bed. Had lost her husband and couldn't call EMS, with two adult disabled children who were 43 years old. Patient wanted the coverage of the vaccine though. Many years ago, when they came out with the first shingles shot, patient got it and felt like she was hit by a truck. Her husband got it as well.
