46. Great news! You must be so relieved!

And that you have caregivers again must also be a relief! Hoping that things are looking up for you and you're less stressed...

I know it doesn't compare, but I'm also relieved that I persuaded my stubborn brother to get his first shot last week! He's not anti vax, he's agoraphobic, hates to leave the house, so he kept thinking he'd be okay. But the state facility which is just down the road (in the old Sears store at the local mall) started taking walk-ins last Thursday, so I stopped by when I was out with my dog on Friday and convinced him to go - he was probably just sick of me nagging, LOL. So he got shot Pfizer shot #1 (and I was impressed with the turnout there, one of the workers there told me that they've managed to vaccinate thousands!) and he has an appointment for #2 in 3 weeks!
