11. I didn't know you were ill, but I'm glad that you are better.

I'm limping around since the cat bit me on the back of my shin last week. It was only a 3/4 inch break in the skin and I thought I would be okay since it wasn't deep, but it flared up on Monday and I had a knot the size of a tennis ball so I can't put any weight on my right heel. I did go to the doctor today for antibiotics since it was oozing pus.

The cat is on double secret probation.

Tea and ginger ale are the only things I drink when sick. redwitch Apr 2018 #1
