Haha forgot to mention that the next morning, Mum, being my Mother, made me go to school to have school photos..

Ok, so I shamefully haven’t read your blog for a little while, this becoming quite obvious when I am commenting on your previous entry, but whatever!
I can seriously relate to you on the fainting from needles, it is awful, much worse than the drunken passing out that you mentioned! Ha ha.
After my last tetnus jab, I was in the waiting room and felt that dreadful feeling wash over me, the room spun and next thing I was on the floor with my mother over me. I had apparently fainted backwards stiff, bashing my head on the tiles and the resultant concussion soon followed. Cutting it short I was at the local hospital an hour later after an ambulance ride that I wasn’t able to enjoy! Mum later admitted that she thought I had died, as apparently my eyes were open, gross!
And… that wasn’t even in the vein! You can imagine how I cope with that! Ha ha.

So Jimmy, I greatly sympathise with your affliction and as a follow sufferer offer all my moral support I can over the internet ha ha. I hope you are well on the mend, and you give yourself some time amongst all your work!

Take Care, can’t wait until you (and Laura) get back on our shores!

I was one of those very strange kids that wanted to stare at the needle going into my arm. I grew up to become a dentist...go figure.

Great blog, James--I love the way you write! :)

Sorry to hear about the fainting. But look at it this way... it made for an hilarious blog. :) Baron Von Lung-Puncture is sure fire entertainment. But yes, let's hope he's gone for good this time.

(First time I had blood taken I got all dizzy and light headed, but every time since I've been fine. So maybe your body adjusts to it. Can only hope!)

Oh and Dave might be there by the time you read this! You'll have to give him a hug from me. And then tell him to give you a hug from me too. Yep, I'm hug happy.
