Groucho:

WatfordFC: I just read about your Dad he's in my prayers.

WatfordFC: What a week you are having...Came to let you know that you and your mum are in my prayers today & now that I'm reading all this, your dad too...Only good thoughts & great times, past, present and future...Take Good Care of You too

Groucho: Take it really easy, get better & stay that way - Thinking of you

srnity:  Thanks.  I haven't felt well in over a year and it's all due to these constant sinus infections.  I've been researching the procedure and it's very promising.  It's not 100% but about 90% success at some level (most very good results).  Thanks for the words!

Groucho: Sinus infections hurt, really badly. Good that you have completed the surgery. I think now that you will get progressively better. Good health to you.!

boop2004: ;) thanks.

Thank you very much. His small op that he had on Monday is clear. Those results will now go to his surgeon who will be operating on his aorta. We are just hoping that he gets a date pretty quick, we all want it over and done with now.

Groucho: Jessica has had secondary nasal infections since she was 5. She has had her adenoids removed, and the small inner tube burnt, but still nothing. Because of her age (13) they cant operate now until she is 15, because her facial bones and nose are still forming. At 15 they will be breaking the cartliage (sp) in both nostrils and also the bridge of her nose, to widen it. What happens, when she has a common cold, the mucous does not release itself , thus it collects and gets infected.

WatfordFC: I'll keep your Dad in my daily prayers.I'm sure your full of all kinds of emotions right now,but you know were all here for you.

Foxy Lady:

WatfordFC:   I've heard that a procedure like that is so helpful.  I've been reading about sinus surgery and didn't know until yesterday that most kids can't have the surgery because they are still growing etc.  That must be tough dealing with the constant infections.  That was my problem as the draining stopped for me due to other factors.  I have packing in my sinus's now so I can only breathe out the nose, but it will heal in about a week.  Depending on the serverity of the problem, full recovery can take up to sixty days.  Tell Jessica to hang in there! 

Groucho: Yes she gets, on average 2-3 infections a month, none of the sprays or tablets help her anymore, so she just has to ride with it.

WatfordFC:  That must be rough.  I've fought the chronic stuff for over a year and it is frustrating.  But I didn't have it that bad.  My anitibiotics did help with the symptoms.  I feel for her!

Ok, I'm back to feeling miserable.  And now trouble sleeping.  What's up?  The first few days I'm doing well and I feel yuckky all over.  lol, now when I'm feeling a bi tmore energy, I'm totally stuffed and now can't sleep.  hehehe Doc gave me a few pills to help with that though. 

The mind is a strange thing.  Two different days, same problems, one day it's not a bother and the next day I can't sleep and am all anxious.

On a bright note, my music teacher friend told me that I'd probably be a better singer as my facial cavities will be totatlly clear and my resonation will improve.  heheheh  I'll record a song and post it and you all can vote.  ;)

Groucho: Awwwwwwwww, keeop ya chin up darling, and try not to fret. Jess was at drama school for 5 years, and had numerous disctinctions with the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, that has all gone now, as the poor lamb speaks as though she has a peg on her nose, another 2 years of this :o(

Groucho: It takes time to heal your probably still swollen inside.

Groucho: Have been away for a while. How are you doing? How did the surgery go?

Radiant Aunt:  It's been a week and the last few days have been rough.  Hard to explain but there is currently little drainage due to the packing and so it's like having the flu.  I see the doc tomorrow and as I understand it, they will remove the packing and that should help a lot with the pain. ;)

Radiant Aunt:  thanks for askin!!!! 

As today is the day of my birth and you can't be with me, I want to send you both ALL my Love & ALL my Thanks, for if it were not for the union of two such wonderful people once upon a time, I would not be me.....I LOVE YOU BOTH for all eternity.....Thank You Always for making me, raising me, and loving me...I feel very blessed for having known you...

srnity:

Groucho: You are very welcome!! I have had no idea of you being in hospital... :-( Since its about a week later: how are you doing now and what is 'packing'?

God bless you real good and may He heal you completely!!! amen

Light a Virtual Candle

my thanks to Kickbut's father for sharing this with me. It's completely free and I think a nice idea.

I was at a twelve step meeting tonight for the first time in a long time. Laziness was not the reason for my prolonged absence! But irregardless of the reason I was at the meeting and it closed with the Lord's/Disciples' prayer! Whenever I hear that prayer,because I don't hear it often, I'm reminded of how unforgiving I am.....even tonight as an EX Christian! Being an EX Christian doesn't allow me the right to be unforgiving or to forgive when not an ounce of energy is needed. Furthermore, I was amazed at how much stress it took to be forever unforgiving. I feel as if a load has been taken off of my shoulders by dropping all of the grudges as a result of multiple hurts leading up to 2002 and beyond.
"Forgive us our temptations....as we forgive those who trespass against us.
Reminds me of the marraige vow "To have and to cherish in sickness and health....But what happens when the sickness comes?...as in what happens when it takes energy to forgive? I quit religion for health reasons. But now that I see how brainwashed I was and how cultlike the religious experience was like at the end I am leery of going back into it too intensely and becoming brainwashed again. I am not against religion. I just have a personal fear of it.

Gentlegiant101:  Don't let your fear of religion keep you from experiencing your spirituality.  God bless you!

Nirvana: Yes it is a lovely idea. Thanks

Thoughts and prayers for a a former student of mine who tragically died yesterday in a car accident.  Great kid and super family.  Being a small town they are known by many.  The staff is devistated.  He was 22.  Name Chris.  Thanks

Intensive care. They are not sure if she has had a stroke or heart attack after an op on her neck.

Please say a prayer.

Groucho: That is so very tragic at such a tender age, my thoughts are with you

Groucho: Its so very hard , i really do feel for you and your family and Chris's family. The fact he wasnt wearing a seatbelt, makes it harder to take in. I have bookmarked your brothers website, and will look at it tomorrow if thats ok. Going to bed now have a 6.15am start tomorrow.

Take care sweetheart.
