Dolittle: Thank You

Dark Vamp: Is she on any blood thinners? We had a friend of ours with the same thing.. I will try to call her and find out what they found out..

Dark Vamp: I am sorry to hear that. Your mom has had a long struggle with this. She is in my prayers. 

Dark Vamp: Sorry to hear that DV...my thoughts and prayers are with your Mom.

Dark Vamp: thanks for sharing the pic with us. My mother in law just had a similair thing happeneing with her. They never did find out what was wrong, but they did find out she was anemic and treating her with iron helped some. I don't know if it's the same thing, but thought I'd tell you.
They never did figure out where her blood was going either..but we know it doesn't evaporate...I will keep you and your Mom in my prayers. Thanks for keeping us posted. for your Mom!

Tuesday:.. Awwwww.. I am so sorry to hear of this.. I remember you posting that.. didn't realize it had been two years.. a shame he lost his battle. I worry about my brother at times. He is also diabetic and for years denied it. I will pray for strength for his family and loved ones..

Tuesday: It saddens me to hear that news about Toby...he fought a hard battle for one so young. I will keep his family in my prayers!!

My cousin's only son (Greg) passed away last night. Very sad. We were just celebrating his improvement in the hospital and he was able to go home. Complications and he passed away in his sleep.

Artful Dodger:  I am so sorry to hear that.. what a terrible upset and loss that is... I can't even imagine the emotions right now.. but, I hope and pray for you and your cousin and family the strength to get through this.

Artful Dodger: My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May God give you all comfort!

Tuesday: You and Heath are in my prayers!

Tuesday: He will be fine hon and that first letter will sure be welcomed. When my son went, he couldn't write or anything for that 3 weeks. I will be thinking about you every day!!!

I'm praying that everyone here will read the 1611 King James Bible

Servant: I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee.

Servant: Of that period.. I prefer the Geneva version. So did the Pilgrim Fathers.

(V): Ha! We agree on something!!!!

People pay for what they do, and still more for what they have allowed themselves to become, and they pay for it, very simply, by the lives they lead.

This is his brother Tom using his nick at the moment. Brian's surgery didn't go to well. The Dr's tried lowering his blood pressure but the meds made him hyperventilate & shaking way to much that they had to rush him into ICU to monitor him 24 7 for 2 days until he was stable. On the 26th, he had surgery but they found alot of blockage around Aorta & the left venticle. That was a 7 hr waiting nightmare so say the least. Brian is still in ICU & might be there for another week. All depends on the meds that will help. Sorry if I don't know the names on all. Still waiting to talk w/ the Dr's on what they did & what they are planning to do. They definitely told me that he isn't going to be working anytime soon. I have to go to his work & tell them that he won't be coming back. Again I just wanted to say a thank you for all the prayers & thoughts for a speedy recovery from my family to all of you! He used to play under the name of MagicDragon a few years back

TigerCat:   I will still put out some prayers for he and your family to make it through this difficult time. I remember your brother better as MagicDragon.. thank you for sharing that detail.

Hello: I am an internet friend of his from before we started to play here at Brainking. I had not heard anything about something being wrong until someone took his turn in our game. They told me to read his fellowship to find out what happened but unfortunately I am not a paid member. We became friends whe we both played at Dorcinos together. My thoughts and prayers to him and to the family. Tom my email address should be in his address list so feel free to message me from it to keep me informed. I will let his Dorcino friends know what is happening.

TigerCat: Hi This is another friend of Snoopy from Dorcino's. I heard about our friend Brian and wanted to send along prayers and well wishes to him. My email is scrappy@daketl.com. Many of us would like to send a card to him, but we don't know which hospital he is in. Could you let me or Amanda know? PLEASE? Stay strong. Paula Biel aka Scrappy

scrappi183: Made an error in my email address I saw scrappy@daktel.com Thanks again.

I finally got hold of the Dr's on Wednesday & asked what they did & what they planned on doing. They told me that they did another test before the surgery to see if everything was the same from the 1st test they did. They found out after the test that they Aorta was a little damaged but the left ventricle was ok. They put in a stent heading somewhere ( so sorry) can't remember all the medical stuff. Did more tests on Wednesday to see if everything was going good. So far it is. They moved him out of ICU that morning. Brian is healing up nicely that on Thursday, for at least 1 hr 3 times a day, they started him walking slowly to build up his strength. Brian will be released on the 6th so he can be home ( he's been bugging them bigtime about that) LOL. Don't have the names of the anti-biotics he'll be having tho. But when he is home, He cannot sit down for long periods of time ( 15 minutes max). Won't be able to do much of anything for the next 3 to 5 wks if lucky. Brian will be able to start doing his walking exercises(Dr. orders) next Wednesday the 7th. Him using a walker isn't something I'm used to seeing, but that is what he'll be using occasionally I do believe. Definitely going to drive him crazy that he can't sleep or sit the regular way that he does. Somewhat sitting up w/ his legs elevated when awake or sleeping. Between my work & things that needs to be done around my home & coming back & getting things done around here is alot tougher than I expected. Hopefully I haven't destroyed anything in his gardens . I haven't been answering his phone tho. Going to re-arrange his bedroom for easier access to everything this weekend. Pixie can't wait for Brian to come home. Brian will be doing alot of latch-hooking LOL Sorry for going on & on. Again I just wanted to say BIG TY for all the prayers & continued thoughts for me & our family at this time + being his friends as well. Take good care of yourselfs & God Bless

TigerCat: thanks Tom for letting us all know how Brian is doing

he still in my thoughts and prayers and hope he be back here very soon
God Bless

Amanda & Scrappi, Brian will be home on the 6th but won't be on-line much for the next 3 to 5 wks tho. I decided not to answer the phone & let him do that when he is able LOL Like Brian doesn't like to be quiet If I can figure out on how to get his messenger working, he'll be able to chat that way for 15 minutes we can do that. I did mention to Crow when she asked me which hospital Brian was in while I was in Dorcino's, it is Heritage Hospital. I have to do something w/ all the flowers he has at the house. I brought them home w/ me. Haven't seen that many bouquets & containers in my life LOL

TigerCat: Thanks for the update.. make sure to take care of yourself as well.. Really makes one realize how vulnerable we all are when we hear of others.. You are a good brother to take care of him and his home. I am sure he appreciates you..

Snoopy: yqw. Did you know that Snoopy is his favorite cartoon character....even has a glass snoopy jar that used to have jelly in it & also has 2 Charles Schultz's comic books, "It's A Dog's Life, Snoopy" & "Peanuts Treasury" which he got before Mr. Schultz passed away

ScarletRose: yqw & yes this does put your life into perspective when something like this happens to someone in your family, someone you know as well. My yard isn't as big as his tho & mostly mow everything at his home w/ the tractor except for inside the fenced in part. The only things that was getting out of control is the weeds in his 10 gardens & that wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. Taking it easy tonight & tomorrow. Between me & our 3 sisters everything will be doing ok

Tuesday: ty & I will Tuesday. Brian was thinking that as well, he did have everything planned out, have a good friend taking his turns for him so his games wouldn't time out, making a little boss in his fellowship & keep it nice & running & for me doing alot of other things w/o worrying. I think as well as you, that ppl should do that as well so alot of players know what has happened to missing players as well

Thank you very much Tom for the good news about Snoopy. I was hoping and praying to get good news before my birthday. Don't worry to much about the gardens. I know how much he loves then but he is more important. I am sure that Pixie has been going nuts without him. I have told him before that he spoils her to much but she is his puppy. Does his pc only have a messenger or does he also have a mic on the pc? OH I just thought of something. With this long recovery time he will end up missing the Tigers games. Hugs to both of you and to Pixie too.

Amandakmg365: yqw....only has messenger on it. Definitely will miss most of the games but after 6 1/2 to 7 wks, he can go to either the Tiger games or the start of Wolverines football. I haven't checked when they start this year LOL

Tom Snoopy could get a good boost from his Tigers this year. Who knows, they may go all the way. It will certainly lift his spirits if they win the World Series. OH with this hospital being about a blockage the doctors must be placing him on a special diet. Tom some of his Dorcino friends have asked for an address to send him cards. What should I tell them?

Amandakmg365: Please e-mail me & I can send you his home address

Tom if it has not changed since he has had internet then I still have it. He gave it to me some time ago. I will send an email for you to look at to make sure I wrote it down correctly. I just didn't think it would be right giving it out to anyone without his consent. There may be some people who he doesn't want to have it. If he wants I can get a list of the people who are asking for it and he can let you know if it is okay for them to have it.

Amandakmg365: That would be fine. It is the correct address & number.

Good morning. Tom do you know yet if he will be going home today or tomorrow or later then that? OH you mentioned that his room has no AC. In this heat and humidity you should tell his doctors about that. They may not want him to use it if it has no AC.

How is Pharb2 doing does any one Know?

What happened to Pbarb? Before our old PC died she and I played many games together. I have not heard from her or about her since I have been back online.
