One reason we don't have any is that the one I looked at costs over $100. Did y ever make wine out of them? I read they're used for that and are a favorite deer snack. Guess the deer here are going to have to settle for apples, pears, turnips and Chuck just said he might plant wheat soon.

I'm not trying to second guess your doctor but when a nodule is found usually a sonograph or a fine needle aspiration to biopsy the nodule for cancer, 95 percent is benign. Mine fell into the 5 percent so no thyroid and 14 lymph nodes. Been 9 years and no return of that **** cancer. Praying for a good outcome for you and same for your wife HB.

Hillbilly in my professional opinion , if your wife reads this . You're the one that will have that walker wrapped around your neck /head ,lol. But I do hope she gets to feeling better .

RR , I hope your husband gets a good diagnosis too.

HB good luck when the inflammation gets high & I can't walk things get interesting. KTape is a wonderful thing, a foot wrap is easy & takes away the pressure. What I have is a man's disease so doctors don't think to run the test on women. One of the major indicators is swelling of the tendons & ligaments not the bone like arthritis. Hope she feels better & doesn't leave you a big honey do list!

Rex how was Chuck's appointment?

Didn't hear from the Dr about results. Hospital told him, they would send results over this AM. If the Dr's office doesn't call by Monday afternoon, I'll give them a call.
Just since I started typing this, Chuck was standing at the backdoor and told me to come look at 2 bucks. R rat terrier ran after them. There ended up being 5 deer. 2 little bucks, 1 big one and not sure about the other 2. Sat down to finish this and an eagle flew over the front yd! Wish a couple of coons would come through 😊

Going to say I'm disappointed in Bass Pro Shop, we drove up to the city to pick up the Garmin he ordered. These big fancy sporting goods stores just don't do it for me.

HB glad she's doing better, since she's walking good maybe get her worked up to go squirrel hunting?

We renamed the Walker pup Pickles, she's a smart little bugger can pop the storm door open & spend the day outside with the blue girls.
