Actinic Keratosis

 

I just finished seventeen days of a 21-day

 

Carac chemotherapy treatment

 

for Actinic Keratosis.

 

My reaction was too intense,

 

and had to be discontinued on day eighteen.

 

 

Actinic Keratosis can be a common skin condition for those living in sunny climates,

 

and I spent most of my life in South Florida.

 

I am very fair complected,

 

and most would not have noticed that I had facial sun damage.

 

 

This treat regimen is not for sissies.

 

And, the lesson here is to

 

protect your skin from the sun.

 

 

I am now in the healing phase

 

which takes approximately three weeks.

 

I am so grateful that this is over.

 

Going to work looking like this every day was tough.

 

I count my blessings that my condition

 

was treated before it became more serious.

 

 

I am including a short video

 

explaining the different treatments

 

for Actinic Keratosis.

 

I was on the Carac treatment.

Which one caught my eye?

Every week after the close of Pink Saturday,

I scroll through all the thumbnail links

to see which is the first one to catch my eye.

Wow!  There were some great thumbnails last week.

This is the first one that caught my eye.

 

This week Jenny captured my eye

with one of her curvaceos ladies,

but wow did I get a treat when I

clicked the link for her post.

Just look at the beauty.

Jenny at The Red Bulletin Board?

A puzzle for the

fun-lovers.

I love jigsaw puzzles.

I've loved puzzles since I was a young child.

The part I don't like is having the puzzle sit out

for long periods of time in the house.

The table it is on is "occupied",

the pieces get knocked off on the floor

and the lighting is not always great.

Those are the reasons I love these online puzzles.

No mess and quick solutions.

Give them a try.

You don't have to give your solution time.

How long it takes isn't important.

What is important is that you try.

 

Come on and play with me.

My advice is to study the picture and

puzzle shape before you start.

These puzzles are fun,

and our brains can

use the workout.

My time was 4:43 seconds.
