Luna accepts her vet easier that orangutans.

I was looking at a documentary about baby orphan orangutans and they dhow how people cake for them when they come injured. I couldn´t but compare how orangutans dread shots and other things that vets do with how Luna behaved with Kharla. And then I remembered that when I was a child I dreaded shots too. I learned how to accept shots when I was an adult through reasoning. Even now I feel something in the pit of my stomach every time I know I will have to put out my arm for a shot. How about you?

Same as @JudyEv, shots do not worry me, but I never watch the needle. I do not like even to watch when they use the needle on my husband.

I want to watch it. That´s why shots in the butt are not the ones I prefer.

@LadyDuck I don´t like shots. And just when I was accepting them more, I was on chemo. And the veins and arteries are not as good and I have to get shots with special people.

I hate needles but I'm okay with shots and blood donations.

I´m way past blood donations now. I´m much too old.

@rakski Decades ago many people donated blood and transmitted ailments to others.

@marguicha I agree with that and not everyone is for donating blood

When I was a young child to teen, I am really scared of it. Now, I am fine as long as I do not look at it when being plunge in.

I remember that some years ago, I had to go with one of my friends for some blood tests she needed. She did not even want to enter .

@marguicha One of my brothers is like this. Whenever we go to see a dentist, he is the one who keeps on yelling with fear.

I can't look when they draw blood or give me a shot. I'm better than I used to be. Have a good day.

I also hate shots when I was a kid. Now I don't mind it. I always have to look away though.
