Ah Jack... having nightmares about vampire bats makes one little jab of a needle more pleasant. One warning though... don't upset the nurse, or offer her a hundred bucks if you don't feel it - Lindsay

I offered her riches beyond her wildest dreams and she still stuck the damn thing in... barbaric!

I so totally agree with what Terry has said below, I always tell them to use my hands... Man I hate that time of year when a person has to get any time of blood work done. Great limerick dear Jack. Hugs Theresa

Wear a tutu and they might give you a lollipop! LOL... A suger coated attack is always better than not. Grandpa Troll says it gives you something to look forward to, and to think about, other than what they're doing. Or he said... He'd come over with his club to give you a little anesthetic. Actually it works quite well... Been there... done that... And I didn't remember a thing... plus they gave me a world famous gigante lollipop... Said I'd earned it, since I was the best patient ever! Really!

Or even better... Have Lady Cathie come along and give you a big kiss while they're doing it... Trust me... I'm sure... It's a top notch way to go! LOL

Hey John, stopped by for a visit. Oh, I do shudder at the thought of the dreaded needle (in whatever part they decide to stick it). Be Blessed, Neva
