Whatever For

You'll wear my mask until you die?
   Words like these make me cry
 
Whatever are we getting vaccinated for?
   ~ Not to withdraw from the world more!

I am so tired of these masks! I can relate here in a big way.

I know that the message came through loud and clear to you. And we sure are in sync on this one. Happiness always, Gershon

You hear about people my age receiving the first shot and then 4hrs. later they died. Then other people say well I did just fine, no problem. One of my daughters tells me "Get The Shot Mom!" and another says "Don't Do It Mom!" My oldest says "Make up your own mind Mom." I'm scared. Well said Gershon. God Bless, JB

Judy, all I can tell you is that I got two shots of the Pfizer vaccine in March. I have high blood pressure (without medication, hyperthyroidism, lymphedema, insomnia, etc. Didn't feel a thing. No reaction whatsoever. I'm perfectly fine. ~ One man's experience, gw

There are so many mixed messages floating around, it is frustrating.i wrote a poem about it, but not sure I will post it. Then, experts who question or warn about vaccines get slandered or censored. Not easy times! Truth be told. :)

'only two doctors I trust told me, Get the vaccine, Gershon!' So, I got two shots in March. Didn't feel a thing. No adverse effects. Lucky me, perhaps. :) gw
