Problem: Article: There’s a common myth that if you’ve had chickenpox once, you can never get it again. Unfortunately, because VZV stays in your body the rest of your life, this simply isn’t true – though once you’ve had chickenpox, the virus usually returns as shingles. Even children can develop shingles if they’re exposed to the virus. Most people only get shingles once, but it is possible to develop an outbreak of shingles multiple times throughout your life. The Shingles virus is not sexually transmitted or spread through sneezing or coughing. Rather, it is transmitted by touching the shingles blisters or fluid from the blisters. If you have been around someone in the blister-phase of the infection, you should wash your hands thoroughly; avoid touching anyone else’s rash.  A person is not contagious before the blisters appear or once the blisters have crusted over completely. Keeping the blisters covered lowers the risk of transmitting the virus. If you have never had chickenpox and come in contact with someone with shingles, you can get VZV – but you’ll get chickenpox, not shingles. (However, you can then get shingles later in life.) Most cases of shingles occur in adults over the age of 60. You are also at higher risk of getting shingles if you have a weakened immune system. This may be due to:  Cancer treatment with chemotherapy or radiation Lymphoma or leukemia Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) Taking immunosuppressive medications like steroids or drugs given after an organ transplant If you are 60 years old or over, you should get the shingles vaccine to reduce your risk of contracting the disease. Being unvaccinated after age 60 is a risk-factor for most people. Talk to your doctor if you have any concerns about whether the shingles vaccine is right for you.
Summary: Realize that anyone who has had chickenpox can get shingles. Recall whether you’ve been exposed to VZV. Recognize if you’re high risk for infection. Talk to your doctor about getting the shingles vaccine, if you are over 60.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Rituals, like a funeral, can be helpful in coping with the death of a cat. For example, you could hold a small memorial service with close family members and bury your cat’s remains. This will allow you and your family to openly express your feelings regarding the loss of your pet cat. You will also be able to say your last goodbyes to your cat. Try and schedule a time with your family and maybe friends when they are available to hold a funeral for your cat. After your cat dies, it can be therapeutic to look back at photographs from throughout your cat’s life. This is a nice way to remember your relationship with your cat and will bring back some positive memories. This will also help you to be able to focus on the good times with your cat, instead of the bad times. You may want to organize some of these photos into a scrapbook or memory box. This way you will be able to look through the book whenever you need and can easily reminisce about your cat. Framing pictures of your cat and hanging them around your house might also be a good idea, so that every time you glance at one of the pictures, it will remind you of your cat. However, this may not work for some people because they might get sad when they look at a picture. It depends on what you prefer. It is also possible to create some sort of memorial for your cat. For example, you could plant a tree in your backyard to memorialize and celebrate your cat’s life. Place a small marker near the tree and mention that the tree is dedicated to your cat. Alternatively, you could donate money to a local animal shelter or sponsor an animal at your local zoo. You might also want to consider volunteering at your local shelter. That way, you will be able to spend time with the animals which can make you feel better.

SUMMARY: Hold a funeral for your cat. Look at pictures. Create a memorial for your cat.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If your yard is still uneven, string the line level along the 4 stakes and watch the bubble on the line level's panel. Record any high or low areas. Continue smoothing out the top soil with the rake or removing raised areas with the shovel until you reach even levels. Rake the area to spread the dirt around evenly and blend together the even, high, and low parts of your yard. After your area begins to look even, use the string level to measure the area. Continue raking until your level records an almost or fully even area. If you cannot completely level your yard using the rake, take a 2x4 board and tape a carpenter's level onto its top. Watch the reading on the carpenter's level—if the bubble dips to the right or left of the line markings, the ground is still uneven. Push the 2x4 board along the ground to lower any raised spots and fill the low spots with dirt. Check the level as you work so you can make the ground as even as possible.  Simple carpenter's levels can be purchased at most hardware or home improvement stores. Buy a 2x4 board that is approximately the same length as the area you are leveling. If you are leveling the whole yard, purchase a large 2x4 board and move it along the area you are leveling as you work. Alternatively, you could rent a water-filled lawn roller from a home improvement store to help you level your yard. If your yard is grassy and you did not have to remove any turf, then your work is done. If you did, however, then you will need to grow new grass from seedlings. Spread grass seeds over the areas you leveled, then cover them with peat moss to help the seeds retain moisture. Avoid stepping on your grass seedlings for the first few weeks to prevent trampling them underfoot.  Water your seeds daily to keep them moist, but avoid watering so much that puddles form. You could also mix grass seeds into a top dressing and spread 2 to 3 inches (5.1 to 7.6 cm) over thin or bare areas. Follow the guidelines on the package to use the right amount of seeds for the area you’re covering. New grass seeds need plenty of care and maintenance to keep healthy. If you stripped your entire lawn, lay sod on the ground and grow a new lawn. Roll out tight rows of sod over the bare ground, keeping the gaps between rows tight. Fill in the lines with soil or peat moss, then walk over the rows with a lawn roller to ensure contact between the sod roots and dirt.  Water your sod at least once a week, and mow the area whenever it grows taller than about 3.5 inches (8.9 cm).
Summary: Use a line level to mark any remaining uneven areas. Use a rake to roughly level the bare areas of your yard. Use a 2x4 board to finish leveling the ground if it is bare. Grow new grass from seedlings if you only partially removed the grass. Grow new grass from sod if your lawn is bare.
