Thank folks!
It's been a pretty rough go - first in July then in November - rough as it's been I have much to be thankful for! MUCH!!!
I had some folks that really came through for me - my Rockstar buddy even flew into Spokane to see me - that was so sweet.
Doesn't mean that I have not had any frustrations - I've had plenty and a few times - I can admit I was less than human in behavior - boy did that humble me!! Well I can see light at the end of the tunnel sort of. Family, Friends, and Employer been really good to me.
a partial spilling
Wed Nov 24, 2004 Well I was figuring since I'm so closely tied to you guys and my IV and it's going to be a few weeks(4 to 6) to talk about this stuff might be in order.
Yesterday seemed to be a good one, nurse came to visit and gave me an A+ for doing the job:
a. changing the tubing
b. stabbing the medication pouch with the tubing
c. feeding the tubing via the IV pump (regulated flow and dosage)
d. getting air bubbles out of tubing (can kill)
e. sterilizing connections
f. care of portal in arm that IV make transfer through.
(getting an A+ doesn't make you less nervous )
Well tonight I scared the hell out of myself with the alarm going off early that the drip was done!!!! turns out that I got the flow rate turned around do it dropped 2x faster than it should have. reason for this confusion is that the dosage for one is 100/100 and the other is 100/200, and I programmed 200/100 -
Called the nurse and got the low-down - I'm OK but "don't do that again".
I'm on my last med drip of the night so in about an hour I can go to bed.
this morning I had a bad tube that kept giving me an air in tube error message - had to replace that in total. this stuff is enough to drive you nuts once in awhile.
Thu Nov 25, 2004 what I can remember
smoked turkey
smoked ham
stuffed pork chops
butternut squash lasagna
apple salad
spinach artichoke stuffing
pears with some fancy cheese saucy stuff
red and white wines
all types of pies
Tue Nov 30, 2004 the Doc was happy with the healing - but I'm not getting off the antibiotics early LOL (sigh)
Wed Dec 01, 2004 thank you - I'm counting on you guys when I have my low points!
Sun Dec 05, 2004 doing well just finishing the last iv of the day
we figured it takes 8 hours a day with prep,doing the IV and cleanup
between 6 am and 11:30pm I'm starting to feel tied down
Mon Dec 06, 2004 I'm just home and from my GP - they are very please with everything!!! Said I can start walking now - when I have time between the IV's - just pace myself then get home and elevate leg. OK to cust back on the water pills by 30% IN 1/2 hour I'm off to the sleep doctor soon as this IV finishes that I'm on now.
Wed Dec 08, 2004 no yet exercise wise to much snow - but doctor’s said exercise then get leg up
Thu Dec 09, 2004 horrible night last night about 11:00pm noticed my calf swelled some - and had real problem sleeping - laid in bed until 2:00am worrying then on and off sleep until 45 minutes ago - I'm a wreck.
diagnosis staph infection - no celeritous(sp?) the cellular part of my skin tissue is fragile and still messed up even though there are no lesions\ulcers or sores - that's why it swells and has fluid (edema) build up so easy - right now my foot hurts (it's elevated)
Cellulitis is an acute inflammation of the connective tissue of the skin, caused by infection with staphylococcus, streptococcus or other bacteria (see also cellulitis - streptococcal).
Risk factors for cellulitis include:
Insect bites and stings, animal bite, or human bite
Injury or trauma with a break in the skin (skin wounds)
History of peripheral vascular disease
Diabetes-related or ischemic ulcers
Recent cardiovascular, pulmonary (lung), dental or other procedures
Use of immunosuppressive or corticosteroid medications
Cellulitis treatment may require hospitalization if it is severe enough to warrant intravenous antibiotics and close observation. At other times, treatment with oral antibiotics and close outpatient follow-up is enough. Treatment is focused on control of the infection and prevention of complications.
Antibiotics are given to control infection, and analgesics may be needed to control pain.
Cure is possible with 7 to 10 days of treatment. Cellulitis may be more severe in people with chronic diseases and people who are susceptible to infection (immunosuppressed).
I'm not but it seems to be looming around the corner diabetes
I've been asked and tested a jillion times
Mon Dec 13, 2004 forget to say - tomorrow is checkup
Tue Dec 14, 2004 Doc said I will get 6 weeks total antibiotics and also no more exercise I'm actually working from home cell phone and links to my office, it's not apparent to anyone I'm at home - mostly; I get tired cause of the screwed up sleep - think I mentioned when I go to bed and rise?? Also trying to get used to the CPap for my apnea but it's a difficult go right now, feels like it's making me more tired.
Soaps are out - a friend loaned us their blockbuster exchange program 2 movies for as long or short a time as you like - since the sickness started I think I've watched 90% of what Blockbuster offers that includes the A and B list movies (and also most all new releases)
Fri Dec 17, 2004 feels like a scuzzy day here - thinking of all the screwed up Xmas cheer - gift buying and so hard, it's difficult to make or even get a list from anyone in the family - our lives have been so turned upside down.
We managed to buy a 2 foot live pine tree, we're lacking space since I have so much extra medical crap hanging around (get it? IV) .
The Mrs. has been busy also with the food bank, food drives, and helping a few families have a Christmas - (remember she's a Director) - I usually help with that, but you already know that's out for this year.
OK - that's enough crying and trying to feel sorry for myself - fighting the depressing side of things is the hardest. right now I'm close to tears but it'll pass.
OK actually there is a tear or two
01/05/05 PIC removed and no more antibiotics for now
01/06/05 Doc says another 2 weeks at home for sure
Thanks - it was ok - 2004 was a challenge for me being hospitalized 2 times
THank You!
i'm on levaquin and clindamycin (4 per day-24hrs)
laceix (sp) water pills 120mg a day
potassium
I'm back home from the hospital from another 9 days in - for a staph infection that went from my toes to my groin - swollen\inflamed lymph glands - man those hurt.
I'm doing home IV's with anti-biotics - it consumes about 6 hours of a 24 hour day - but way better than being in a nursing home or hospital.
lets hope I can keep my job through all this.
remember july was 11 days in the hospital and 2 months to recover.
HELLO???? WHERE IS EVERYONE?? I'm still alive and holding on for another good fight - well at least I hope so.
So I wonder if all the people leaving the US will renouce (get rid of their US Citizenship) or will hold a dual-citizenship so they can suck off the tit that they so dis-approved of to leave the for, for retirement and medicare?

No I think what I was getting at is that God does love everyone without exception, if a person such as a homosexual does not receive that full blessing it is up to them(that person). It's maybe difficult or even impossible to understand the afflictions and trials, God will reveal his fullness in time. Would you rather consider that God is angry or hurt about the actions of the sinner? Love your neighbor as yourself. I wonder if the anger died on the cross? And was it replaced by his passion at that time.......
naked man!
Many years ago I considered the differences between the various Christian denominations (visualize me holding my hands two or three feet apart) and thought "boy, that's a big difference".
After being in the Middle East for 12 years now, that difference has shrunken in my mind to insignificance.
As far as I'm concerned, as long as you believe:
-God entered his own creation as Jesus of Nazareth
-He died on the cross for the forgiveness of sins
-He rose from the dead
-You accept Christ as Lord and Savior,
then everything else doesn't really matter.

My feeling is you stepped over the line and on your man toy again! The beauty about cyberspace is that in this place beauty is more that skin deep - so it doesn't matter if you are a 100lb wimpass or 500 lb fat-gorilla. But shallow is as shallow does, and sometimes your need to be bigger than life and cool comes at the expenses of others. Consider in that I think you are a Christian? Are the things you are doing and saying in a Christ-like manner? So they bring glorify his kingdom? These things you need to consider in all that you.
As Easter approaches, I'd like to share this with you.
There was a certain Professor of Religion named Dr. Christianson, a studious man who taught at a small college in the Western United States. Dr. Christianson taught the required survey course in Christianity at this particular institution. Every student was required to take this course his or her
freshman year regardless of his or her major. Although Dr. Christianson tried hard to communicate the essence of the gospel in his class, he found that most of his students looked upon the course as nothing but required drudgery. Despite his best efforts, most students refused to take Christianity seriously.
This year, Dr. Christianson had a special student named Steve. Steve was only a freshman, but was studying with the intent of going on to seminary for the ministry. Steve was popular, he was well liked, and he was an imposing physical specimen. He was now the starting center on the school football team, and was the best student in the professor's class.
One day, Dr. Christianson asked Steve to stay after class so he could talk with him. "How many push-ups can you do?" Steve said, "I do about 200 every night." "200? That's pretty good, Steve," Dr. Christianson said. "Do you think you could do 300?" Steve replied, "I don't know... I've never done 300 at a time." "Do you think you could?" again asked Dr.
Christianson. "Well, I can try," said Steve. "Can you do 300 in sets of 10? I have a class project in mind and I need you to do about 300 push ups in sets of ten for this to work. Can you do it? I need you to tell me you can do it," said the professor. Steve said, "Well... I think I can...yeah, I can do it."
Dr. Christianson said, "Good! I need you to do this on Friday. Let me explain what I have in mind."
Friday came, and Steve got to class early and sat in the front of the room. When class started, the professor pulled out a big box of donuts. Now these weren't the normal kinds of donuts, they were the extra fancy BIG kind, with cream centers and frosting swirls. Everyone was pretty excited it was Friday, the last class of the day, and they were going to get an early
start on the weekend with a party in Dr. Christianson's class.
Dr. Christianson went to the first girl in the first row and asked, "Cynthia, do you want to have one of these donuts?" Cynthia said, "Yes." Dr. Christianson then turned to Steve and asked, "Steve, would you do ten push-ups so that Cynthia can have a donut?" "Sure." Steve jumped down from his desk to do a quick ten. Then Steve again sat in his desk. Dr.
Christianson put a donut on Cynthia's desk. Dr. Christianson then went to Joe, the next person, and asked, "Joe, do you want a donut?" Joe said, "Yes." Dr. Christianson asked, "Steve would you do ten push-ups so Joe can have a donut?" Steve did ten push-ups, Joe got a donut.
And so it went, down the first aisle, Steve did ten pushups for every person before they got their donut. And down the second aisle, till Dr. Christianson came to Scott. Scott was on the basketball team, and in as good condition as Steve. He was very popular and never lacking for female companionship. When the professor asked, "Scott do you want a donut?" Scott's reply was, "Well, can I do my own pushups?"
Dr. Christianson said, "No, Steve has to do them."
Then Scott said, "Well, I don't want one then."
Dr. Christianson shrugged and then turned to Steve and asked, "Steve, would you do ten pushups so Scott can have a donut he doesn't want?" With perfect obedience Steve started to do ten pushups. Scott said, "HEY! I said I didn't want one!"
Dr. Christianson said, "Look, this is my classroom, my class, my desks, and these are my donuts. Just leave it on the desk if you don't want it." And he put a donut on Scott's desk.
Now by this time, Steve had begun to slow down a little. He just stayed on the floor between sets because it took too much effort to be getting up and down. You could start to see a little perspiration coming out around his brow. Dr. Christianson started down the third row. Now the students were
beginning to get a little angry. Dr. Christianson asked Jenny, "Jenny, do you want a donut?" Sternly, Jenny said, "No." Then Dr. Christianson asked Steve, "Steve, would you do ten more pushups so Jenny can have a donut that she doesn't want?" Steve did ten; Jenny got a donut. By now, a growing sense of uneasiness filled the room. The students were beginning to say "No", and there were all these uneaten donuts on the desks.
Steve also had to really put forth a lot of extra effort to get these pushups done for each donut. There began to be a small pool of sweat on the floor beneath his face, his arms and brow were beginningto get red because of the physical effort involved. Dr. Christianson asked Robert, who was the most vocal unbeliever in the class, to watch Steve do each push up to make sure he did the full ten pushups in a set because he
couldn't bear to watch all of Steve's work for all of those uneaten donuts.
He sent Robert over to where Steve was so Robert could count the set and watch Steve closely. Dr. Christianson started down the
fourth row. During his class, however, some students from other classes had wandered in and sat down on the steps along the radiators that ran down the sides of the room. When the professor realized this, he did a quick count and saw that now there were 34 students in the room. He started to worry if
Steve would be able to make it. Dr. Christianson went on to the next person and the next and the next. Near the end of that row, Steve was really having a rough time. He was taking a lot more time to complete each set. Steve asked Dr. Christianson, "Do I have to make my nose touch on each one?" Dr. Christianson thought for a moment, "Well, they're your pushups. You are
in charge now. You can do them any way you want." And
Dr. Christianson went on. A few moments later, Jason, a recent transfer student, came to the room and was about to come in when all the students yelled in one voice, "NO! Don't come in! Stay out!" Jason didn't know what was going on. Steve picked up his head and said, "No, let him come." Professor Christianson said, "You realize that if Jason comes in you will
have to do ten pushups for him?" Steve said, "Yes, let him come in. Give him a donut" Dr. Christianson said, "Okay, Steve, I'll let you get Jason's out of the way right now. Jason, do you want a donut?" Jason, new to the room hardly knew what was going on. "Yes," he said, "give me a donut."
"Steve, will you do ten pushups so that Jason can have a donut?" Steve did ten pushups very slowly and with great effort. Jason, bewildered, was handed a donut and sat down. Dr. Christianson finished the fourth row, then started on those visitors seated by the heaters. Steve's arms were now shaking with each pushup in a struggle to lift himself against the force of gravity.
Sweat was profusely dropping off of his face and, by this time, there was no sound except his heavy breathing, there was not a dry eye in the room. The very last two students in the room were two young women, both cheerleaders, and very popular. Dr. Christianson went to Linda, the second to last, and
asked, "Linda, do you want a doughnut?" Linda said, very sadly, "No, thank you." Professor Christianson quietly asked, "Steve, would you do ten pushups so that Linda can have a donut she doesn't want?" Grunting from the effort, Steve did ten very slow pushups for Linda. Then Dr. Christianson turned to
the last girl, Susan. "Susan, do you want a donut?" Susan, with tears flowing down her face,began to cry. "Dr. Christianson, why can't I help him?" Dr. Christianson, with tears of his own, said, "No, Steve has to do it alone. I have given him this task, and he is in charge of seeing that everyone has an opportunity for a donut whether they want it or not. When I decided to have a party this last day of class, I looked at my grade
book. Steve, here is the only student with a perfect grade. Everyone else has failed a test, skipped class, or offered me inferior work. Steve told me that in football practice, when a player messes up he must do push ups. I told Steve that none of you could come to my party unless he paid the price by doing your push ups. He and I made a deal for your sakes.
Steve, would you do ten pushups so Susan can have a donut?" As Steve very slowly finished his last pushup, with the understanding that he had accomplished all that was required of him, having done 350 pushups, his arms buckled beneath him and he fell to the floor. Dr. Christianson turned to the room and said. "And so it was, that our Savior, Jesus Christ, on the cross, pleaded to the Father, 'into thy hands I commend my spirit' with the understanding that He had done everything that was required of Him, he yielded up His life. And, like some of those in this room, many of us leave the gift on the desk, uneaten." Two students helped Steve up off the floor and to a seat, physically exhausted, but wearing a thin smile. "Well, done, good and faithful servant" said the professor, adding "Not all sermons are preached in words." Turning to his class the professor said, "My wish is that you might understand and
fully comprehend all the riches of grace and mercy that have been given to you through the sacrifice of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. God spared not his only begotten Son, but gave Him up for us all, for all people, now and forever. Whether or not we choose to accept His gift to us, the price has been paid. Wouldn't you be foolish and ungrateful to leave it lying on
the desk?"
Resurrection [Easter] BLESSINGS to one and all,
I needed to post that somewhere but could not get the link - I got distracted - I missed the show last night but got wars in other places over it. Link is there now.
