Aks, I had hand surgery a few years ago to correct a trigger thumb. It was no big deal, I healed quickly, and now my thumb is as good as new. You might want to at least consider having the procedure if the CBD topicals don't help.

Thanks for the info, I'll give it some more thought. I'd need to first find a good surgeon who worked only on hands.

Some mornings when I would call my wife before we both left for work, I'd ask her how she's feeling. Should have known she would come back just about every time with "with my fingers!"

The little town I lived in didn't get a morning paper until Tuesday mornings. Bad thing about that was, if something bad happened to us over the weekend, we wouldn't know about it till Tuesday!

Have a good weekend, folks, and always remember to smile! It makes people wonder what you're up to!

Thanks motor...... This last year has been a roller coaster ride. Serious illness is always someone else, and then suddenly, it´s you.

I have seen things this last year I will never forget. I have been treated in England at a hospital called ´The Christie.´It is a specialist cancer hospital, and treats nothing else.

I felt very sorry for myself at first. Needles in the arm, and all day chemotherapy treatment. Then more recently, daily doses of radiotherapy for a month. It´s very easy to get down, and feel all is lost.

But, at the hospital, I have seen children receiving treatment, and many young adults. It´s mainly older people, but many young also, which surprised me.

How can I complain at my bad luck, when I see a child crying, with it´s worried mother holding it close? I have been humbled seeing the hard working doctors and nurses, doing their utmost to save mine, and other´s lives.

I have no complaints, and am grateful to still be here. I have made it to Spain, from were I am typing this. We return home to England this morning, after a week in the sun. I didn´t think I´d make it here ever again. Hopefully, this won´t be my last time visiting this wonderful country.
