I had mono and anyone at any age can get it. It can be gotten just from drinking from the same glass or water fountain from somebody who has it. That was a terrible experience. Similar to having the flu only much worse. Its also is called the kissing disease.

I believe anyone can get mono. It doesn't just happen to adolescents.
Also, congrats for your sister being cancer free. Unfortunately, my sister passed away from breast cancer in November. 9 days short of her 36th birthday. :(
