Sonny, as crazy as it sounds, I've used oven mitts to get things out of the freezer...they should help.

With heat, my hands do not feel the heat until they are lobster red and I am digging at them because I am itching them. Let's just say there is no heat hot enough for my hands if that makes sense. Yes, there comes a point when I feel the heat, but by then it is so hot and steamy, it is like being in a sauna. Yet cold, that is another whole story. I cannot even open the refrigerator door without my hands getting stiff from cold and once they get cold, forget it, they are cold, frozen forever. (ok, not forever, but long enough) I have to use a plastic cup with a handle to drink out of for cold beverages. (one of those 2 ply thermal travel mug things, where it keeps cold in but not on the outside) If i get something out of the freezer, it is like I have to plan for a timed race. Like I have half a second to open the freezer, grab it, and throw it on the counter. It burns to the bone.

I just don't get any of it and probably never will!!! but luckily I have you all to discuss it with. (and you won't think I am crazy):o

Just thought I would share my experience!

Sometime time you have eto laugh to keep from crying. My tears even burn my face. But about the Cold. It is no joke. When I open my refrigrator. I have to plan too. The cold will stiffen my joints and my knees.Then makes my skin burn; on FIRE!!!You have to open it fast look and see what's in there and pray that you can remember it.
By now that little breeze from the regrig. makes me feel like a cool pepermint. Then plan your next move, to hurry up and get everthing you need, fast. So that you don't turn in to the Crep Keeper. With your knees, hands. and joint not being able to move. And Skin on fire.
Well this is what happens to me. That's why I HAVE TO LAUGH TO KEEP FROM CRYING! Take care and stay positive. I know that it hard!! I'm in the some boat!!! La Shawn
