I am happy for you & Hubby!...There is so much controversary about the shots, I scared to get one and scared not to!. Haha...

I will be getting my second shot of Pfizer on Friday. I can not wait. Hopefully I will not feel ill after. My dog Coco is not very good in taking care of me.

These sound very similar to my reactions to the second dose last week but add swollen arm. Thankfully, worse symptoms lasted less than 24 hours. Hubby had mild reactions following his first dose Monday. He believes he may have been exposed to the virus so immunity was kicking in similarly to those receiving the second dose. I will be soooooo happy when everyone can be vaccinated!

Now to go hug my granddaughters (and get my hair cut)!!!

We got our second Moderna vaccine Monday too and feeling better today. Hubby ran a good fever Monday night or about 5 am Tuesday, took Tylenol and fever broke. I was chilled until this morning but only ran a slight temp, but I had taken Tylenol before fever got up. Lazy yesterday but both ok today. Seeing my sisters so near death convinced me to take the vaccine.

My family that has had their second have not had issues (1 each type). I am two + weeks from my second shot so fingers crossed but will take side effects over COVID.

Laura, I know I already commented but I just found out my cousin Lora Mae and her husband Johnny died on the same day, just hours apart, in the hospital with Covid. They were such a sweet couple, loved fishing together, the outdoors, she loved quilting and both were still very active in church. She and her sister both had such loving souls.
I edited to add the picture of my other cousin Elton that passed away from Covid earlier this year. Angie this is me, Elton and his wife Margaret. She is from Germany. He married her years & years ago as he was a career serviceman. I love the accent.

Congratulations that you have had your second jab but sorry to hear that you had after effects. My older daughter had her second jab Pfizer- a week ago and wasnt well at all the next day but is fine now. Not sure when my second jab is as I haven't been given a date. Yes it is very sad that so many have lost their lives over the past year with Covid.

So sorry to hear you had some side effects, but it's better than the alternative, isn't it Laura?
My local Doctor's surgery rang me on Monday to ask if Mum wanted a vaccine and I told them yes, she's hanging out for it. NSW has received the AstraZeneca vaccine and it's currently being sent around the state. I'm not eligible for the first couple of rounds as I'm not 70, but Trevor can get his, he is in Phase 1B! I'll be patient and wait for mine when it comes. I'm in Phase 2A . Our surgery has it under control.
I hope you continue to get "betterer" and "betterer" (he he he) Love Chris

Shot 2 today!

Yesterday 2nd shot of Pfizer. Feeling just like any other day. Yeah pretty soon being able to hug the great-grands.

Hope you are feeling better Laura. There is still no sign of even our first jab here in SA.
