INSOMNIACS place to talk in the wee hours

Tang - Cami is having sometime today a cystoscopy - camera of urethra/bladder. Per her choice she will be awake maybe slightly drugged but certainly no gen. anesthesia or even the loverly Propofol. She calls it pe-ectomy.

Oo - good call. Missed Ziggy. O Ziggy where are you?

Hope you get DH to doc. Mine goes reluctantly yearly but just to keep his BP meds.

I'm in for Chevy's porch.

pawprint, sorry you r soooo tired. Must be so hard to feel that way all the time. Hope they can figure it out and get that iron to stay in....in your pocket

Ok, I’ve been reading for days about this Peectomy Cami is having and all I can say is
OUCH!  Cami you are a brave lady!

And I was wondering the same about Smaarty and Estrogen, but Gardengumby
beat to asking about it!

Welcome and Happy Birthday to you, tressaliz!  Also, prayers for
your daughter! That’s such a young age!

And Susan you are
so correct with what you say about the rest of us, especially me, let’s see how
did you put it? “And well, then theres just
the rest of us.  There is a bunch of us, and we forget who is gettin what
and when, we mess up names.....but no one cares. We know what we r talking
about....you know like family. Don't have to say it correctly....we can fix and
finish each other's sentences......when they r not being made up....lol”

Chevy, my daughter would love you garden, she is def a garden person and since she no
longer lives with us, I have NO gardens!  But she has her new place really coming together and she would love the pots, I’ll have to show her your pic!

FBB—I agree with hubby throwing her out!  You have done
your part and raised her, it’s time she step up to the plate and take a swing
for herself! You nor your DH need added stress at this time!  Although, I know your illness is stressful
for her too, but at 20 she should know how to act!  I know it’s tough, as mothers, we worry!  Always have, always will, but at some point we have to draw a line!  When each of my two graduated from high school, my DH gave them a choice, go to college or go to work and if you go to work you will be moving out!  Both went to college!  And as soon as they finished college they were on their own!  I’m still sorry you have to endure this added stress!

Well, I’m still behind!  I’ll catch up more later!

But wanted to add, chiro put me on decompression table Monday…..it seems to have helped
although that in and of itself has added some soreness!  Off to massage today, so hopefully by the
weekend, I’ll know if the table worked!!

Thanks everyone. Life just sucks right now, but all I needed was a group hug!

Fierce....!  We're with you hon....  What is? Is....... that's what my Brother always says about his kids....   sometimes you just have to step back and take a breath, and know it will turn out alright...  

Kids that age just know it all.... I remember that.... Glad I don't have to go through it now....I would go nuts....  If you call the "Mom"....  all you can do is explain what happened...  she will understand... 

OR, you could just go over there, hog-tie her, and drag her home by the heels and lock her in her room, never to see the light of day AGAIN, unless she behaves... 

Sorry.............

????? I'm here, hiding behind the screen

FBB we all understand and I think sometimes girls are worse than boys, she'll come around my DD was like 21, 0r 22 and she was a different person. And another thing is she's probably scared like crazy for you, she just doesn't know how to process it st all--(((HUGS)))

Oh please I am not brave it didn't hurt at all, well after I sang my song and my legs were in the stirrups I did say that my legs haven't been in that position for anyone in many years, She said nothing looked crazy but took a biopsy of course she wasn't looking at my brain otherwise it would have been a whole different conversation altho some have said my brain is in that area as I told her. I'm fine really. U really don't need any drugs for that--I didn't have anything so if u ever need one really u don't feel anything that hurts.

But I did come home and had to catch up on my work (voicemails) and caught up on here a little, now I'm tired. so I'll relax some now.

cami. Hugs to you too...glad u r home and not in pain down there

Ha ha ha Susan! I've actually done that! That or turned over and kicked myself with a sharp toenail. Ouch

susan - the CT report says "there is a destructive lesion involving the right aspect of the inferior aspect of the sternum.  WTF?? Really, who gets one of those....whatever they are?  It says there is a lucent (???!!) lesion which measures 12 x11 x24mm.  Again WTF??!! Anyway (deep breath) I have some sort of destructive force that is 12x11x24mm that is right but inferior somewhere around my sternum.  Also some other crap!  I think it is all caused by the ankle monitor that Chevy and cammi insist that I wear.  I had to get new batteries so that I could power my cell phone and iPad from it. Must be the wi-fi waves?
Okay, that probably made no sense but neither do destructive aliens in my chest.

Holey - thank you for the paintball party.  Paintball guns are necessary any time someone tries to stick a big fat needle in my chest. 

cammi so glad that your "procedure"  or pee-cedure went smoothly and without pain.

chevy -  I LOVE the idea of a GPS for sassy's brain!

Blubie - good luck with the CT.  Chest X-rays do not have the right to be suspicious.

p.s. count me in for tea and a bong

Yea....party on Chevy's porch (and yard)..I'm in.

Sorry to hear yucky news from FBB and Philli. Extra hugs to both of you. Maybe Chevy will share what she took out of the rhino pot with you. 

Cami, glad to hear test was pain free. 

Thank you Sas for info on the iron scan. I will share it with my doc. Cancer was 100% estrogen, and onco score only 8. So no chemo or rads. Arimidex for me since mastectomy. 4.6 cm liver tumor of unknown status since its in a dangerous location that can't be biopsied. Only shows on MRI but not on CT. I don't absorb iron taken orally. Had lots of tests checking for bleeding. So as of now it's iron deficiency anemia, cause unknown. 

Hi 2nd, if you're lurking. 

Susan, so funny, I often knock myself in the face pulling up my blanket. 

Issokay Cammi!  We gotcha babe...  We understood everything you said....  more or less.

And you don't have to go anywhere with anything...  Just glad they didn't do anything to your brain...  Oh wait..... never mind.

So it WAS like that whatever they do with your feet in the stirrups, and you are grabbing onto that table like billy-hell, and they have the whole 4th floor standing there, looking at your what-evers, and they are snickering and pointing?

I had that 4,000 years ago, and they electrocuted things from up there, and I swear to GOD I wanted to kick him in the face, it hurt so bad.  Glad they only all looked at you and laughed and took notes....  Damn people ANYway!

Okay, PHYLLIWITHGODONLYKNOWSWHAT...... Maybe it means this?  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2706332/

I looked up what you almost said...  Is it a "destructive force" like with Darth Vader or something?  Can't you ever do ANYthing boring? 

"Pronounced "lee-sion" with the emphasis on the "lee," a lesion can be almost any abnormal change involving any tissue or organ due to disease or injury. There are numerous types of lesions with different naming classifications."

So maybe they can figure out what to do with you?  Wouldn't it be nice, if they could just do something simple!   Or just tell them to "fix it" damnit!    Sorry little Filly....

Yes LittlePaws.... you can bring your Pups!   It's the back patio, that is up for partying... porch only has a little round table... We can't all fit!

Sassy, we can put a GPS in your little head, and then we can all talk back and forth like that!  And you can just click a switch, and shut it off when you don't want to think anymore, or be bothered by your brain going every which way, trying to think!

About the Tinnitis....  Wouldn't you just love if your ears were like your nose, and you could BLOW it, and clean everything out?  That is my wish for today.  Then I could hear...  See, we could hold our nose, and BLOW, and our ears would just clean themselves out!  Without blowing out our brains!   Like sometimes happens.

Yes, and the Chickens...!  They would feel bad if we didn't bring them over too! 

Morning Blessings and FBB!  And Susan!  I love the pictures!  I sent that one saying to my Daughter's!

Hi Peppermint! And 222222nd!  Cute kitties....

LittleGoats, did you see THIS?  I thought of you!  Miniature Mama gave birth to a mini-miniature baby! 

Okay... starting to get light out... have to go get my coffee, and sit at my little table and bring on the DAY!

Morning Nettie, Tang and HIO!  xoxoxoxoxo

Phily. Thanks for the explanation....notice I didn't say clarification, of what you are waiting to find out about.......I have a heart doc who says after a test.......that was just a finding, now we need another test to see if it is anything we need to do something about........that's what yours sounds like. There is something there, they need to clarify what it is. They just like to word it in a way that is code for them. I think it's a cruel game they play of...let's stress out  the patient .  It is such a pain to wait so long for the biopsy. Let's hope they r taking their time cause they arent worried.

Susan, that sounds like so much fun! Have a great time!

Took my Chevy To the Levy, loved the goat pics!  Party on the patio! I'll bring my chickens too. 

Reruns tonight of cami's peetest. Summertime TV is so boring.

Phillawhatthehell, Ain't got no time for that! Lesion schmesion. That super strong battery interfered with their test. Now they have to change all their signs to say, NO CELL PHONE USE or ANKLE MONITORS may interfere with testing equipment.  I'm coming to cut that damn ankle bracelet off. I don't care how pretty cami and Chevy thinks it is. Supercalifragilisticexpialodocious hugs being sent your way.
