Wow, youve had a battle to face .
I hope you get better real soon and always stay positive. You might have this Hodgkins ~but dont let it have you!!!

Was there a reason given as to why you couldnt touch your chickens? I do hope this is safe for you.
Please look after you and rest up when you need it.
Hugs to you.

I'm guessing your doctor said no to your going out to the chickens because of possible infections through contaminants/germs. I'm also guessing you are more than aware of that and took whatever precautions were necessary.

Personally I truly feel that animals have some of the greatest healing help for people there is. Being with our furry/fuzzy etc. friends is great therapy for both physical and mental issues. They've proven that just petting a dog or cat can lower a persons blood pressure and help them relax.

So I say - go enjoy your chickens (with proper precautions for germs) and let them help you feel better.

I'll be praying for you. Have a very Merry Christmas.

You are correct! I didn't go in the coop, only held them outside and washed up when I came in. I figured being happy helps you feel better, so it couldn't hurt just a little. Plus I am getting near the safe stage again. Although I do have to get all my childhood immunizations again in like 3 months. That ought to be a lot of fun

I reported you to your doctor and he said you should beat yourself with a stick for taking such chances.
