Hi Judy and listfriends, As we all know, our skin is often fat (don't know the english word). I have since I have PD, more ear-fat (again i don't know the word). I hope that you understand what I mean. It sits in my ears and I have to get help from the doctor to have it cleaned with water under pressure. Sorry for the bad terms, but in a few days I'll be back in Holland where I have my dictionary.:) Take care Kees Paap
