And right now my house is also upended with the tear out of the tile in our bathroom going on. What a mess, lots of noise...but will be worth it. 🤗 Good luck at the dentist's. Sending you our best wishes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take care and stay safe away from those selfish nay Sayers. Graham. Look at all the maskless idiots celebrating super bowl win in tampa.

They were able to see him in the hospital before he passed following strict rules. Two people could visit for 15 minutes, followed by 2 more people for another 15 minutes, followed by 2 more people for an hour. Not sure how they came up with that rule, but it let his immediate family and brother say their goodbyes. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers.

It's comforting to know he wasn't alone. My brother died at 40 years old and was a donor. He helped over 40 people donating bone and bone marrow in addition to organs. It's amazing what can be done. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So good to hear that your brother could also help others in need. Everyone is probably aware of organ donation, but not the extent that it can be done. My wife's niece was stunned at how many parts of the body can be used to help someone...often saving their life. I hadn't given it much thought beyond eyes, heart, kidneys, lungs, liver. I agree that it's amazing. The people who do that work need to walk a fine line, harvesting organs quickly without appearing to be vultures over the body. According to my wife's niece, they were very respectful. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted February 8, 2021 #7467 Share Posted February 8, 2021 OK...call me big chicken. 😮 🐓 But did not have the tooth pulled. After heart to heart nice conversation with the dentist...we decided to wait a year...but can always come back earlier if the infections return. What changed our minds, was the wisdom tooth showing on the Xray that was not only not decayed or infected, but in fact was starting to drop on it's own...starting to separate from the jaw. Welcome to old age. 😉 Will be easier to remove later. I had no idea they did that. Another reason to delay was due to getting the Covid vaccine. If I were to get an infection due to surgery on the tooth removal, I could not go on antibiotic. I have had the first Covid shot, and am to get the second on Thursday. Was warned by pharmacist of the same thing when I got my pneumonia shot months ago. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck for your second vaccine jab on Thursday and hopefully no side effects. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grapau27 Posted February 8, 2021 #7471 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Just now, island lady said: Thanks...did you get both shots yet? I can't remember if you told me that. No. In the UK they have vaccinated 12.2 million people so far with hospital staff and over 70s the priority. Next is over 65 then my category of 16-64 with health issues (my heart attack) Hopefully it might be April before I get my first vaccine jab. They are working on 10-12 weeks between vaccine jabs here. Pauline is 59 next month so it might be May before she gets her first vaccine jab. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems strange (and unfortunate) being even though you in the under 65 group, the health issue should have put you more forward. Your immune system has taken a beating with that heart attack. Hope they up the schedule and you can get your shots sooner. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATG Posted February 8, 2021 #7473 Share Posted February 8, 2021 We just got back home from getting our first shot. We live in rural South Carolina and our county has no health clinic, so the state DHEC has outreach clinics. Ours was in a Baptist church. DHEC dropped the age eligibility to 65 last Wednesday evening and I called for an appointment Thursday morning. It took about 35 minutes to get through, and our appointment was for 1:30 today. We got there at 1:13, filled out the paperwork and got registered. We had to show a SC drivers license but no insurance info. Waited about 15 minutes and the nurse gave us the shot. Got our appointment for 4 weeks from today at the same time and place. Waited 15 minutes and left. In car at 2:12. Wow!!! I feel a great sense of relief. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone with serious health issues was in the priority groups already vaccinated. I had Covid19 in November and was poorly and spent 3 weeks in bed at home so hopefully it has given me good immunity.
