One of the hazards of living in this part of the southern hemisphere is the strength of the sun. Because of the thin layer of ozone, or in some cases, lack of any, our skin burns very quickly. Skin cancer is a real issue too.
Today I went for a check up to a skin specialist, to make sure there was nothing ominous happening to my skin. Although I’m pretty sun-shy, I don’t want to take any chances. I am grateful to have been given the all clear.
I am however on antibiotics for a rash on my face which flared up recently. It seems to be an allergic reaction to something or another.
Tonight I did a double take with the container of antibiotics on the kitchen counter. On Saturday, our cat had a run in with the local feline Terminator. He came away with a gash near his mouth and scratches on his head. He is also on antibiotics –same shape container, same kind of label.
I was a nano second away from swallowing cat tablets and demanding Whiskas on toast for breakfast in the morning.
