I should learn to not be surprised by things like this, but it still happens.  People at home know that we collect medical equipment and supplies to bring down here.  Our barn and garage usually have lots of donated stuff.  We ship some and we carry some with us.  My check bag was near the weight limit but had quite a bit of space, so I put a bag of hundreds of diabetic syringes in the top.  They weigh very little but occupy considerable space.  We had discussed what to do with them when we got here, but that was an unnecessary discussion.  Hiliana, the nurse we all love, came and visited yesterday morning.  I told her about the wheelchairs and walkers and crutches coming in the shipment in a few weeks, then asked her what she needed most right now.  Her reply without hesitation was "diabetic syringes".
