I put up a (too) lengthy post today! Thanks for getting the story to me.<BR/><BR/>Jen, True that: we all have something we can stomach and lots of things we cant! the trick is to find yourself!<BR/><BR/>Holly, all I could think is that the "Boo Boo Kisses" bandages were a great idea, and the first person I was going to give them to was our Urologist!

A friend gave me these ultra Kewl bandaids. They are shaped like a pair of lips! They also come in 4 colors: Red, Orange, Purple and Pink. <BR/>I wore a purple one and a pink one over my incision sites on my knee when I went in for my post-op check. Mt surgeon looked and them and busted out in guffaws, "What the hell do you have on your knee, Holly?" and I answered, "BooBoo Kisses" He said, "You come up with the damnedest things!"<BR/><BR/>I think your life could use some BooBoo Kisses, maybe I'll send them to you now, instead. They even come with a PRIZE in the box.HollyBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17644166795449256850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13562314.post-11551682735543517612008-01-10T05:50:00.000-06:002008-01-10T05:50:00.000-06:00My guess is that a lot of things that you find run...My guess is that a lot of things that you find run-of-the-mill might be "disgusting" to those of us who don't have to face them...I got the heebie-jeebies from your ability to see the bed through the women's leg! Thank heavens for people like you (and others with strong stomachs!) <BR/><BR/>I hope that soon you'll be dealing with band-aids and tonsils.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02809636995447795326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13562314.post-32633348169864280822008-01-10T02:11:00.000-06:002008-01-10T02:11:00.000-06:00The BBC is reporting this morning (Jan 10) that 18...The BBC is reporting this morning (Jan 10) that 18 Brit soldiers were being tested for contaminated blood received (straight from US soldiers) in Iraq when treated at an American hospital. Supposedly the US soldiers had been tested for HIV and such before giving blood, but not afterwards. The Pentagon is saying that the soldiers were tested afterwards and were found negative for all contiminates. The Brits did admit the soldiers would have died without the medical aid given by the Americans. I don't really understand why this is news, but it is interesting stuff. Is it all just part of the agenda?Bag Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01885412195900280096noreply@blogger.com
