Mum was up early this morning as she had to head into town for her appointment. It was foggy and cold when she left home, but the closer she got to town the fog was clearing, she was even early and got to wander round a bookstore. Although she no longer buys any books she will take photos if covers of ones she is interested in, and see if the library has it available.
She got a steroid injection in her sore frozen shoulder, done under ultrasound. It was quick, only 5 minutes and sore for a couple of minutes. Mum came home to rest after as it was quite uncomfortable and she is not allowed to work until Thursday. The injection may reduce pain and inflammation, so hopefully mum will feel a bit better.
So it was an afternoon of reading her book and relaxing with me. The sun was out, so the windows were open and fresh air let in.

We sure hope the shot works! We know it's hit and miss with those, depending on the person and the issue. We'll cross our paws that it's a "hit" for your mum!
