I sure am glad I decided to go lurking on this site tonight. This post has been both educational as well as entertaining. All this talk about cows, sounds like a lot of bull. I just couldn't resist. I have been treating my fingernails with the tea tree oil, but I have marked my "to do list" to purchase bag balm and rejuvacoat. My nails are still splitting and I ended my Herceptin on Nov 07. My middle finger is also prone to cracking, but I have to be careful not to flash it around by itself.

Bill, Nicole has got to be smiling down on you. Not only did you enhance the quality of her life here on earth, you continue to be an "angel" to the rest of us.
