Took its time but there at last, here's hoping it works quickly for her. Lx Always be aware that what you do might hurt others........and if it could, do nothing without careful consideration of the consequences

Thanks for your support, Glenys and girls! First injection was absolutely fine. Rather than pinching an inch, Steve pinched a foot (all you can do when you're my size) and I pushed the stuff in. No pain at alll. It looks as if I may have to come off it already, though  as I've managed to pick up yet another chest infection!!! Love to you all Jeanxxx

 Pleased your injection went well jean. Sorry you have a chest infection ,i hope your feeling better soon. I can remember my Nanna rubbing goose grease on my chest when i was a little girl, i hated it. It used to stick to my liberty bodice ! Can you remember what they were? Maybe you are younger than me!

Oh my goodness, Kathleen - I certainly DO remember liberty bodices! I'm 66 so older even than Doreen  My Mum used to put mustard and lard on my chest poultices and they were absolutely disgusting!! Maybe I should try one if the infection doesn't clear! I have to say I feel much better this morning and haven't coughed so much during the night. Love Jeanxxx

Not only does she remember Liberty bodices Kathleen, she still wears them! Although I suspect you may have taken it off a little early Jean. Remember the saying "ne'er cast a clout till May is out"? Glad you are feeling a bit better today  Love, Doreen xx

I remember the liberty bodice too, but my mam used to put a kaolin poultice on my chest - ugh, ugh, and double ugh!!!!!!! Bad enough when they first went one, but horrible when they went cold. Kathleen xx (Kathleen_C )

We ALWAYS wore vests under our bodices!! I remember not being allowed to take my vest off until the end of May! And Kathleen, do I remember that horrid, sticky, clammy mess when the poultice had gone cold?...oh yes!! xxxxx

Glad to hear you a feeling a bit better Jean. I don't go as far back as the liberty bodice but always a vest. My mum used to cover me in Vick when I was little. Back and front - tingly skin and streaming eyes - you forgot to cough!

Hi Jean hope you soon feel much better!
I remember liberty bodices very well.(blooming horriblethings with beige rubbery buttons!!??) the smell of vick about an inch thick on my chest and my mum used to put my scarf on crossed over at the front and pinned at the back so I couldnt get it off!!
Happy days!!
Love Heather

good see you coughing less Jean mam used rub vicks on me chest,and when i was older and into herbs etc i made mustard poultice for chest infection worked wonders to warm up area loosen mucus not for faint hearted or skin problems,at time was great till cold and sticky.  bet youd love a wee back rub with nice oil know for me coughs always make back sore,wish could drop by do that for you. maybe get your hubby do it for u. melly cuddly cats make my world seem so much more fun

Hmmm...if Steve massaged me, Melly, I'd probably end up through the bed. He's not know for his gentleness - patience, yes, but gentleness no!
