Phooey.  Not to say that I like shots, but I've had bazillions of them.  I was 
hospitalized last week and I lost count of the blood tests taken.  I may have 
to have a pacemaker so I will probably have more blood tests and I don't care.

  I list anything that comes in a needle under allergies.  I can't stand shots. 
 I have no problem giving them to our animals but to take one myself.........I 
run.

      Once upon a time, long ago, I was on duty in a clinic in a MASH unit.

    I had never given a shot to anyone.

    Guess what?  My first Sargent was a patient, and he needed a shot.

    Not every one gets to stick his first Sargent in the rear with a huge 
needle.

    I had seen nurses give it one hard and fast JAB.

    I tried that, and the needle did not go it.  It just bounded out.  
Darn.......
    He hollered in great joy !

    So, ....... I tried again and drove it in to the hilt, and part of the 
syringe.

    And......... he hollered again.  My mission was complete and I was an 
    expert at giving shots,

    to the First Sargent, at least.

    I never told him about that being the first shot I ever gave anyone.
