Cynthia please hold a pillow firmly against your ribs when you feel coughs coming on.

When my brother had a quardruple bi-pass several years ago, they told him to do that. Actually in the hospital they gave him a stuffed bear to hug/hold tightly.

Did you have the current flu shot CYN? My brother and I are seniors and they give us a stronger dose.

prevnar 13 I think it's called gives protection for 13 strains of pneumonia. I ask the pharmacist at Target what's IN now and get it. Also got both Shingrex shots ( best protection so far from shingles).

Did regular flue shot and prevnar13 at the Dr he wanted me as protected as one can be my immune is strange

I also get the shots to prove to myself, I am NOT the little crybaby I was before. Would practically collapse at the thought of getting a shot. Way back as a kid, I was afraid of the polio vaccine they gave on a sugar cube. Thought that was a big lie to get kids to co-operate. What's really funny is my parents and I switched roles. I had to beg, bribe, you name it to get my parents to have the shots. In my fathers case he wouldn't get one until he saw me get it first and NOT drop dead.

tell you what I was sick as dog praying to ralph the day I got the regular flu shot but only for the 18 hours then fine

Dr wouldn't let me get a flu shot back in November when I saw him. Saw him earlier this month and he asked me why I didn't get a flu shot. I was immunosuppressed!

I tell ya, sometimes you just wanna kick them where they live.

So bread is out of the oven along with rolls for dinner and a small loaf left over from the rolls. Wall is finished. Kitchen is clean. Told DH not to get used to it. Back to dishes in the sink drying tomorrow.

Yes, I do decorate with ducks, chickens and farm animals in general. DH tolerates my obsessions, bless him.
