good afternoon everybody,<br /><br />Carmen ~ so sorry to hear about your kidney stones&#33; hope all goes well with your procedure. <br /><br />Kevin - don&#39;t know about the <i>personal </i>marking bit, never heard of that one, I have heard of people that go to their beauty shops and get all of the hair that is cut ( their hair dresser saves it for them) and scatter it around their gardens...that is <i>supposed</i>  to keep away animals...<br />P.S.  you and the boys got it in &#39;ya... <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wink2:" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> <br /><br />Fred - contuined thoughts and prayers for your family and your son.<br /><br />Debbie - save travels and have fun  <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":smile:" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> <br /> what the doctor has me doing for my face right now is a putting a homemade paste of zinc oxide and pure aloe vera gel on it.  I mix it   together and plaster it the bad spot.  He didn&#39;t want to use a strong steroid cream on it, for the infection,  for fear it would discolor the skin.  If the burn isn&#39;t better by Monday I call him and then he will have to do something else.<br /><br />Cheryl - How SCARY&#33;  so glad you got off the interstate safely&#33;  <br /><br />HI to everybody and have a great day.
