Pamela,
I went through the same worries a couple of years ago when my husband had shingles. I couldn't remember if I'd had chickenpox, my mom and my brothers couldn't remember, and nothing was written in my baby book.
Since I know adult Chickenpox is usually very serious, I needed to find out.
There is a simple blood test that can be done to see if you've had Chickenpox. You shouldn't have any problem getting your mom's doctor to order one for you.
