I was not told (or I don't recall - likely I don't recall!) about CMV with my brother and I. Evidently 80% + in the midwest (cows) have this dormant. It has kicked my butt. Now there is a Measle outbreak in our area...... great. I will be going nowhere at peak times and when I go out I will wear a mask. My nurse told me that in the 80's when a transplant patient got CMV they died. Thank God for medical advancements. Thank you for all the comments. Just another bump in the road!
