@dchip had a picture on your other thread. I searched for  “mask ear strap” on Amazon and they had lots (of course). Here are three different types. Hope you find something that works for you.

I got a chuckle out of the "easy to use billing for one of them.  I have yet to find one that is as "easy to use" as it is advertised to be.  But, thanks for posting this.

Oh, no!  That's a bummer.  I guess tomorrow will have to do, but I know how disappointed you must be.

Not just in Canada.  My usual 3 month appointment with my PCP resulted in a screw up by my doctor  He sent prescriptions for my usual medicines to CVS when I reminded him that they needed to go to Express-Scripts.  When I realized what he had done, I called his office and more prescriptions were sent to Express-Scripts which then caused issues when they tried to fulfill them.  Just this afternoon, I get a phone call from CVS that another already filled prescription that I already have from them is ready to be picked up!  I called and, thankfully, the pharmacy tech at my CVS was able to solve the problem and cancelled all of the other prescriptions that were going to be re-filled at some point in the future.

What a disappointment, when you were ready for the drain to be removed.

Did she apologise?

I remember removing a stitch on a family camping trip years ago with sterilized nail clippers, scissors, & paring knife.  Dear Daughter survived.

Am pleased that the drain was removed, and that you are feeling good.

Jim, I made mask straps for my son in law for work. If you email me at 1superoma at gmail dot com With your address I will gladly send you two or three. They are about 6 inches long and made of a soft fleece material. I have them with black buttons too.
