Thank you Cathie
Its small enough that they are going to cut it out via keyhole surgery next month. It's not too invasive but not without it's risks either e.g collapsed lung etc. so we're all hoping that goes well.

It's hot hot hot here again. ,
I did most of my chores this morning. That included a visit to the GP for a tetanus jab after I stood on a piece of wood with a nail in it yesterday. It wasn't very deep because it went through my shoe first, but it did bleed and was very tender this morning.
My last 10 year jab expired in May so I rang the docs for advice and they told me to go straight in - which was amazing in itself!
Made me wonder where that 10 years has gone. My last tetanus was because I was bitten by a pupil - I did wonder if I should have had a rabies jab too because he was like a wild animal the day he did that.
Anyway I'll be ok for another 10 years now hopefully I won't treading on anymore nails though.
Hope your all having a good day and looking forward to the weekend.

I had COVID before the vaccine came out but still got the vaccine. That's one I decided to get. And yes the symptoms were not good at all. It's interesting that I've not had it since although many people I know have. My doctor and I decided that the vaccine was my booster. I may still get the shingles vaccine but I'd really like to wait if possible. I've been reading.
My doctor's office said to wait at least 6 months. In the UK it's 1 year. I'm not an anti vaccine person. Certain ones are really important. Like the measles vaccine. Joe is a victim of my mother getting measles while pregnant. So we agree 
basically the same . Since I've had shingles maybe this should be considered my booster since I now have natural immunity also. All I really know is mine started inside my ear and I have some sort of hearing loss. We'll see if that clears up. If not I'll be seeing a specialist when they get the time 
I hate silly accidentsIt's hot hot hot here again. ,

it heals quickly for you.
God bless him he'll be in my prayers forever
. I know you're right about a positive attitude. Faith works 
. He sounds like a lovely person to know.
That question is very interesting.
Thank you. I just saw the years and that's something I've been reading about too. It's good to know the vaccine can clear up some of the long term issues. It gives me hope.
I got the Shingles Vaccine two days after my 50th birthday. I can remember being 12 years old and trying to help wash my mom's back when she had shingles. Nope no way, vaccination please
Good morning everyone!
I cared for dad with Alzheimer's and not long after putting him in the care home I went down with shingles. I wouldn't wish that pain on my worst enemy.
Ray I was wondering how the Gopher family are getting on? I'm just imagining your garden with a Gopher family plus Opo, Ms Sully, Franklin and Ozzy!

I will have to look on my calendar. I wrote it down when the eggs should hatch. I believe it is 100 days to hatch.
He was a very disturbed little boy in our special needs unit and was at risk of hurting others and himself, so I was part of a team that was trained to restrain those out of control which thankfully didn't happen too often. I still don't know how he did it but he managed to really bite into my arm, broke the skin and left teeth marks for weeks. When he was calm he was a lovely kid, but something or someone really upset him that day.

Thank you for explaining - I am impressed that you were given training on dealing with the children - I mostly taught in special needs schools, and I was never given training - but there were generally two assistants in the class with me,who were usually very sensible and kind (and bigger than me !) I never got bitten - just bruised a lot. But I loved the children - I am still in touch with some of the families after many years.

Thank goodness that's over with. Now for Jacky's pre-hibernation checkup on Wednesday and my thyroid blood test on Thursday.

I see I miss worded a sentence. It was years that he suffered.
Uh, huh . . . so the truth comes out..
That hurts Ray.....but poor Mrs Watson might agree.
This is how my school pics looked, with the teachers always holding on to me for support I suppose.
