Those darn twins - kids get you sick like wildfire.
Dang...I got mine out when I was in ~4th or 5th grade I think? Must be one of those things where it's not as bad when you're younger because I don't really remember it. I used to get strep ~4-5 times a year it felt like and I haven't had it since (knock on wood).
