That’s basically your armpit . It’s going to be very tricky because it’s a super high risk of damaging the main artery and they have already replaced it twice.. we didn’t find out a lot yesterday but were sent for lots of testing. The surgeon did see something that made him think they might could rebuild her shoulder instead of replacing so we did a CT scan so he could see better. We will get more info next week... he did tell us that they had excellent results replacing and repairing nerves as long as the severed distance wasn’t too far... I don’t know where she fits in that picture...

I absolutely love Halloween so that’s a perfect night for a blue moon.. I’m actually planning on having a Halloween party that evening so YAY!!!!
Thanks I was wondering what area those nerves were. The tip of my amputated forearm hurts 24/7 like when you hit your thumb with a hammer. It's all because of the nerves.
We will pray Jess dosen't have to much discomfort in the future.
Halloween party will be fun.

Traditionally can just be stored ina cool larder to mature... few houses have those these days. I let them cool and then put them in the freezer. It is impossible to make a small quantity of Christmas pudding, so I have made 4 1lb puddings and 1 2lb puddings.

The big one will be eaten over Christmas Day and Boxing Day. In our house we’ll have a 1lb pudding on New Year’s Day and we usually have another on the Easter weekend. One will get eaten on a random comfort food day probably and the last is eaten the weekend we eat the next batch. I have the last of the previous batch defrosting for dessert tomorrow :)
Ok,I didn't realize it had to mature. Is there different flavors? I guess I should Google it.

Good morning all! My son Ray has just left port for the final 1hr leg of the trip. He has a 5hr window before the waves pick up. I will be happy when he gets to Bay City.
Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Keep us posted when get finally gets HOME. ❤️

He should be there. You know how adult children are. I have to make the call most of the time. But he might also have been busy. They had to have the boat lifted out of the water and dry docked.

In 2020 isn’t there some kind of cream or something that can be rubbed on the area to make it feel numb and take away the 24/7 pain??
I mean..?
No alcohol...
No addictive meds....
Just a cream or gel?
Hey!!!.....?
Opo..? We could make one and be billionaires!!!!!?

I have tried numerous creams and lotions. Even had a guy make me up a suave from marijuana. Maybe Opo's urates?????

She must fit in a bit or I doubt they would give you hope.? I can't wait to see a Blue Moon. There's been some really pretty things in the night sky lately... With the cresent moon and planets several days. A Blue Moon as a topper will be so nice.?
