“Went for a hike with some friends, found a place to sit down and have some drinks and a bite to eat. Turns out we were surrounded by poison ivy, literally hanging out with it.

Not realizing we had been laying down right beside the ivy, the oil spread from my legs to my bed sheets. I washed the clothes I was wearing and contaminated my other clothes and a towel so I was getting reinfected probably daily.

Got a severe reaction and it spread to everywhere on my body except my face. Had to take prednisone so I didnt turn into the Michelin man.

Taught me not to take my good health and working legs for granted. Definitely not going back to that spot anytime soon.”
