God I hope so. I don’t know if I can handle any more physical labour or mental load.

Edit:

The reason I worry is because despite good cleanliness after handling him (repeatedly), I have a sus red circular lesion on my knee that could be from catching it. So I still went for more pats after discovering that but took a Silkwood shower with anti fungal shampoo and soap afterwards.

The knee is being washed with sulfur soap and covered with anti fungal cream and bandaids until the doc can take a look.
