GigiG, I see y'all are going to get a little rain from Hurricane Joaquin.

"Bad Moon Rising"

I see the bad moon arising.
I see trouble on the way.
I see earthquakes and lightnin'.
I see bad times today.

Don't go around tonight,
Well, it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise.

I hear hurricanes ablowing.
I know the end is coming soon.
I fear rivers over flowing.
I hear the voice of rage and ruin.

All right!

Hope you got your things together.
Hope you are quite prepared to die.
Looks like we're in for nasty weather.
One eye is taken for an eye.

Wondering if Joaquin is going to hit us here in the mid-Atlantic. With each hour that passes, the predictions become more dire. Hoo-boy, I don't know if my old house can take it (meaning: I don't know if I can afford to pay for the damage & repairs). I also live in a neighborhood with really tall trees, just to add to things.

My daughter's birthday is Saturday, and I am always amazed at how the weather can change so quickly this time of year. Some years her birthday is super hot & humid as if it's still summer. Other years it's really brisk & chilly. This storm will add another dimension to that history.

Think I'lll go to the store tomorrow ahead of the horde and stock up, especially since I was lazy last week and didn't buy any groceries.

Good luck and best wishes to anyone else potentially in Joaquin's path!

Were you reading my mind? I just posted about my worries. Thanks for thinking of me. Zuri is also facing the same potential peril. Let's hope we all fare well!

Pages,

I just love all these old songs! I was born in 1961, so I grew up listening to much of this and of course dad always bought every eight-track tape he could get his hands on. We had the eight-track tape players in the vehicles and two more in the house. I would always sneek the tapes out of the vehicles to play them in the house. Dad always knew where to find his missing tapes hahaha. Brings back lots of great memories!

Sounds like that Russian MD is solving your DH's mysterious sickness, but I can't understand why the others couldn't???
I was anemic when I was around 12 yrs old and it wasn't a good thing. The MD came everyday to my house and gave me B12 shots for a long time.
Here is something on anemia and how it's treated to read: (sounds like the symptoms your DH has)

Anemia

"Anemia is the most common blood disorder, and according to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, it affects more than 3 million Americans...

When you have anemia, your body lacks oxygen, so you may experience one or more of the following symptoms:

Weakness
Shortness of breath
Dizziness
Fast or irregular heartbeat
Pounding or "whooshing" in your ears
Headache
Cold hands or feet
Pale or yellow skin
Chest pain..." url]http://www.hematology.org/Patients/Anemia/[/url]

Hope that whatever kind of anemia your DH has can be fixed real soon.

------------
Hi Zuri &Y/N , I am anemic. I take iron aad try to eat the veggies. I have the symptoms
except for chest pain ,looking yellow. been this way since I bled so bad. They did give me
transfusions. My Doctor watches it close! that and Imuran, blood test every other other month.
So good to see both on the board. :happydance: Now we need a case..P.S. My oxygen level is 97!

 

[Jasper52]

Niner, I hope your dear hubby is doing well. Sending more JINGLES your way!

Nore, great news about your oxygen levels! I'm sending you some more JINGLES just because I want to!!!

Ok guys, I need to let off some steam so please pardon my french if I slip up.

I've been very upset and b****y since my appointment with the specialist on the 21st of Sept. I was initially told they had taken a FEW biopsies only to find out they took a LOT of biopsies. The good news is there was no cancer. The bad news; something showed up in the biopsies but they were unable to determine what it was. I was told there was nothing that could be done. BS.

I see my family Dr. this Friday, so hopefully he can suggest something else that the last two specialists couldn't to help remedy the situation. This has been going on for over three years now and I can't take the pain and suffering much longer.

My real rant - I'm following a case here that is truly gut-wrenching. There are a few newer members but mostly one particular individual that are really making it difficult to even get on and read the thread. They're just posting nonsence and stuff that is completely irrelevant to the subject on hand. GRRRRRR. I try my best to be patient (guess I need to hook up with Zuri :thinking but I just feel like I keep banging my head against a cement wall. They're taking cults, zombies, you name it - some of the stuff that was posted was so far-fetched it was incomprehensible. :gaah::gaah::gaah:

A few members have made complaints to the effect and other stuff has been reported and the posts have been removed. When something is posted and verified as fact (as best as can be), one of these dudes posts a response that just makes me SMFH. :facepalm: Unfortunately, some members seem to have left the thread. I just may have to do the same. This is the first time, since I became a member here, that I've become so annoyed with this kind of crap but I've yet to see it this bad in any other thread, thank goodness. I know everyone is entitled to their opinion but some of these dudes need theeir med's adjusted, lol. :scared:

Sorry for the rant and thanks for letting me vent here. I feel much better now!!! :blushing:

I can relate, Jasper. During the investigation into the Savopoulos murders (here in my hometown!), the thread was inundated with a lot of misinformation, conspiracy theories, character assassination of people who were never accused or charged with any crime, ad hominem attacks on fellow posters, and a general meanness of spirit. Snark to the nth degree.

Several times the mods took down dozens of posts, trying to clear the air, but those same people came back and basically did it all over again. With a vengeance.

Even though I was highly interested in the case (the crime scene was just a few miles from my house!), eventually I just threw up my hands. It wasn't worth the frustration.

That thread seems to have died a natural death after no further arrests were made and no further information came to light. But I wonder if some of those people just wander around different WS pages trying to make trouble. Some of them seemed to think that the purpose of this site is to engage in controversy for the sake of controversy.

That experience definitely weirded me out!

The weather news just said it might merge with another storm and be an even bigger event. And it looks like you're going to be impacted no matter where it makes landfall.

Remember to buy batteries for flashlights. Do you have an old fashion radio that uses batteries too?


October birthdays - my nephew's is Sunday the fourth, and Anna's is the thirteenth. She loves when it falls on a Friday. When I went into the hospital Wednesday morning to have her it was in the nineties, and when we left the hospital on Saturday morning it was in the drizzling in the forties and falling. After we got home, and I sat down to feed Anna, a bird flew out of one of my hanging baskets that dh had brought in and he chased it all over the house. I was thankful it wasn't bees.

Batteries. Check. Thanks, I wouldn't have remembered that! No radio here, so we'll probably just lay low until it blows over.

Happy birthday to all the October folks out there. My daughter was born on the 3rd, and my son on the 29th. If it weren't for those two landmarks I probably wouldn't realize how much the weather/seasons change in October. While her birthday can be warm, his is always chilly. A few years ago it even snowed on his birthday...

Hi Everybody. I am so far behind and. I just wanted you all to know I was thinking of you. I have been sleeping on and off for the last week and I am too exhausted to add much to any conversation.

I am so sorry about Niner's husband. Hope the transfusions work and give him the needed oxygen and replacement whatever he needs.

Nore, I think of you often and I interpreted your dream as your son has moved on, he is in a good place and is at peace and wants the same for you. Not easy on this earthly side.

I can't even begin to express my gratitude for the love and prayers and major JINGLES you all sent my way. The recovery process will be long and arduous, but it consists of goals that are attainable with life lessons in the middle of it. I am working on PATIENCE. Patience is not my strong suit, nor virtue or a word prominent in my vernacular. Everything I wanted done yesterday is not going to happen, did not happen, does not have the same meaning to others. Expecting others to step up is an exercise in futility, so I am just going to heal. The mess will be there when I wake up.

I hope you all are doing well. You are in my thoughts and much love sent to all of you. Xo

It's so good to see you hear, Zuri! And to hear you are sleeping and resting, that's when your body is healing itself. So just have patience, heal and get well. (((hugs)))
