    You are right it is almost 12;30 am... Goodnight to all my friends and I will check you all out tomorrow late afternoon... Those fresh cool sheets are callin' me... :)
    I see you are still up Stinger, my love. (well you were until I got through typing and pasting this post.. ) Happens to me all the time. But anyway, I thought I'd take the opportunity to chat and thank you for that beautiful post on the thread the 'girls' did for me. You guys all make me feel so warm and welcome/appreciated that I now proclaim that I have a new addiction and will have it till the end (my AMHD Family!)

    I had a really lousy time this week (except for being with Alexander) and that thread just soothed my current wounds to no end. I sincerely hope that I can be here for you any time you need lifting.

    I can't stay sitting too much at one time, so I find it hard to keep up with all what's going on in this thread - you are all too fast for me now, but I hope I don't miss something important that you feel ignored- I'd never do that to any one of you. I just got through telling rp how part of my week went in the Private Post thread, but I'll paste part of it here so that you have an update and understand why I've been a little scarce lately. BUT, I promise, I still have my sense of humor and steadfastness.

    Oh,Oh rp, you got me started...
    The last cleaning team consisted of two new 'ladies' (putting it mildly) with BO as if they washed only once a month. Two ladies in my little bathroom for almost two hours managed to NOT dust, not wash the tiles below the sink or the corners of the ceramic tile floor. They did however manage to sniff around my perfumes, throw away things that they had no right to (or stole them) even though I told them not to throw anything away without asking me first they carried out a trashbag and when I insisted in looking into it, they got nasty. I told them that I was not a child, or mental patient and that they would not feel too happy if someone went to their home and did the same trick they did with me and then get snappy. These two witches with a capital B will never enter my home again. I called their boss and demanded my missing articles back and an apology - which I have not gotten either yet. I will take this further up the ladder as I took pictures and will have another ashtray in my bathroom. If they want to keep their job, they better call me and apologize soon too.

    Then, yesterday, I went for my first visit to the Oncologist for the 'non-radioactive' infusion - well they lied to me and I went off - I told them that I did not want chemo but the doc promised that this would only attack the bad cells and leave the healthy ones alone --- right ---.
    After attempting to find a large enough vain to stick into, (because it needed three bottles, one to 'relax me' and then one a steroid, and the last 'little' one with the radioactive sticker). Well after the second bottle my arm got swollen - the liquid backed up and I did not feel it and was busy trusting them and watching a movie. Oh well, then they had to try sticking in the hand on my other extremity. Good thing this was only a little bottle because after it was empty, this area also swelled up. Now these have reduced their bumps and have wonderful new colors though. And I have to go through this two more times in three-week intervals. I hope they can find enough veins and pay more attention next time. So, now I also have migraines and heartburn to add to my other little unimportant ouches, but the doc said it's important to try because of the metastasis of 6 new scouts. Since I'm allergic to morphium, it's hard to find medication that helps but not mess up my mind. I need to have a clear head or nothing will be worth it anymore. So, it's try this, try that, and frustration sets in.

    So, with pain from my degenerative spine, arthrosis in the coxcix(sp) (end tail of spine which radiates pain down both legs), pain from the tumor in my back on the right side - and down the right arm, migraines, etc... there's not much left on me that does not hurt, I just would not feel right without any pain at all - can't wait to sleep a total amount of 3 hours within 24 - and still keep going. Now I need to be able to find a way to afford this super wig I found for when my hair falls out.

    That's me, I'm a fighter and hang on tight to the times when I can sit up and play on my PC and also go out and play with my kids.. so life does go on - no matter what, and I'm not the only one with such problems - as my forum family also has their trials and sufferings. That's why I'm glad to be here and receive as well as give support whenever we all can - proves that we are humans who also care for others too.

    But, I'm not complaining, just venting, and I will stay strong and not give up because those smiles and hugs I get from my grandson are the greatest incentive and I don't want to miss a moment of them. And I can't leave you guys on your own either, I love this site and my forum family and want to be here for as long as I can to help, cheer, and even get a few of you miffed off. You wonderful folks are my life-line to the rest of the world and I will not let anything get in the way, yet.

    So, my dear, you did ask... now you know - the rest of the current story--
    C.U. on the forum later after a bit of rest. I certainly hope your week was a little better than mine. My daughter is going to BBQ for me on Saturday - I love BBQ anything, even eggplant and bell peppers taste better off the grill.

    Have a super weekend.

    This includes all you others that beat me to the posting-punch again.

    Yes Chery I am still up, thanks for noticing dear.

    I meant EVERY word I typed for you. My mom had the same strength and love as you do, maybe you two are kindred souls hon. So many aspects of your personality are so much like hers. You once said something to me that I will never forget... "when I get up there I will look up Alice and we will hug." Wow... I want you to meet her very much, she will love you too...

    Good night for now Chery.

    Yup, I remember Stringer... I also mentioned that if you look at a picture of me and keep in mind now and then - you'll send it to your Mom and she will recongize me, so no problem at all dear. A promise is a promise.

    Yeah, stung for about 10 minutes, I'm feeling all right now. If its who I think it is, the kids a loser and I don't feel bad one bit. If it were a game, I'd be winning

    I guess it's a good gauge of how I'm doing :)

Sneezy cat [ 2 Answers ]

I just found out that my cat had some kind of allergy and well she had an itchy lesion on her head, the vet said it wasn't anything serious and that all I had to do was put an ointment on her wound. Almost a week later she is now sneezing uncontrollably and I am really worried that this could be a...
