Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

Excellent point, -t.

Mammo results all clear. Thumbs way up.

Going to a friend's house for takeout and a movie tonight. Thumbs also way up.

Yay to those, JenP!

Anyone know if you can take a small stuffed animal into an MRI machine? Google is being unhelpful.

I don't know, I'm afraid, but it sounds like a good idea so I hope so

Relatedly, does anyone know if Jellycat bunnies have any metal in them? I wouldn't think so, but I'm not 100% certain about their eyes.

Arropa it may also depend on what they’re scanning and where the stuffed animal is. Like if they’re scanning your head it might not work if you’re holding the bunny by your face but maybe ok if it’s hugged to your chest?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

It's the weekend. There are some things I need to do. Whether I get to do them is anyone's guess.

I'm seeing several links indicating yes, Atropa.

"You will be able to bring your favorite stuffed animal or blanket in with you, as long as they don’t have any metal on them because the MRI machine is one big magnet. "

A different site (that won't let me link):

"Do you have a favorite stuffed animal, blanket, or another comfort item (without metal or glitter)? You can bring it with you to the MRI room."

Oh good. Now to wait for JellyCat customer service to get back to me about if there's metal backing on the bunny eyes.

I didn't have any luck on the Jellycat metal info hunt, but I did find that they have a stuffed dragon that is SO CUTE I'M GONNA DIE!

Ahem, that I may have to look into purchasing.
