I just received news that Jim was taken to the hospital several days ago for a bleeding ulcer and is not doing well. They have him on a respirator and he's not lucid. That's all I know tonight.

Yaaaaaaaaaaay!!!! Of course all of our prayers had a lot to do with it. And I am not really joking on that either. I'm sure they helped. LOL It is all pretty close and makes me throw up anyway. They will drop most men to the floor though. You try squeezing rocks out through that little hole and tell me how you feel. Thhhhhhhhhhpppppppp! You might want to talk to a Certified Naturopath. One with their head on straight.
Agreed. He always remembers he's a gentleman even when in strong disagreement. Great news, thank you for the update.
So, he's awake, cogent and happy to have that breathing tube out.

Sir Lod has never digressed from the straight and narrow. A gentleman in my small book.

Did they zap/crush it or is he just passing the sucker whole?

I went to see him early this afternoon and ended up staying an hour and 15 minutes. Jim is lucid and grateful to be alive. He knows more or less what he's been through and he knows how close to death he has been. He remembers some of the hallucinations he had while in the coma, including family three generations back standing around his bed. So, he's awake, cogent and happy to have that breathing tube out. Great news! God does answer prayers! I would love to meet him someday. Still praying for you and your family Lod. Jim's breathing tube was removed late this morning. You must know that this is a momentous occasion for Jim's recovery, a turning point.
God is always good!

I noticed that you'd given Sir Lod a title but it was subtle - and even moreso because it suited him perfectly. It's good to see you here, Cyni - and I look forward to Sir Lod's return. Several years ago, on this forum,I started calling Lod...Sir Lod...

Geez Christine, your troops are feeling the effects of living in the negative atmosphere that's been created for us by the PTB. I sure offer my prayers for both JT and Sir Lod (and everyone on this "seniors" thread). A name change for "4" could be upon us ... like maybe ... www.fixem4us.doc Just kiddin - get well soon boys and thanks so much for being there Christine ! JT is at the ER in excruciating pain from a kidney stone....:(

He remembers some of the hallucinations he had while in the coma, including family three generations back standing around his bed. That's really stunning. I know that you can have some remarkable experiences when you're "out." So, he's awake, cogent and happy to have that breathing tube out. I'm so glad to hear that. Thanks for the updates.

Wonderful, wonderful news. Thank you, Christine.

They are most certainly painful enough. The three most physically painful things I have had in my life (so far and I hope nothing is worse)would be sciatica, gout and kidney stones. And the time I had sciatica I got lucky and got gout at the same time. I wouldn't wish any of those things on anyone no matter how much I might dislike them. Anyone I disliked that much I would wish them dead first since that would be more humane. Have heard, and believe, that this is one of the most painful conditions you may experience.

Whew! What a relief! Good news of the day. Thanks for keeping us posted on the status and for doing mail delivery. I'm so happy and gratefult that you are able to see Loddy in person and share a smile with him for the lot of us. : ) he's awake, cogent and happy to have that breathing tube out.

Hi Cyni! So nice to see you in these parts again. I hope you are doing well and know that we have missed your presence around here. : )

Great news on Jim christine, and kudos to you for being a true friend to him, and for us by proxy. I can’t wait for the YouTube song fest to begin upon his return. And a big thank you to all that wished me well with my annual kidney stone episode. I had an 8.5mm one shattered by lithotripsy last March when I was in Florida. That was three weeks of fun in a sunny doctor’s day room with a bunch of seasoned gentleman who couldn't pee. Yesterday’s attack put me on the floor, crawling around like a baby. Effing incredible pain. Pain and I are old friends. I like to think I can handle more than most can, but this? Ooooo Nooooo. Fork'n major OUCH. It took a 5-hour stint in the ER and two hits of IV fentanyl to clear my head. I’m not sure where the stone is now but I’m pumping water in and waiting for it to resurface like the Lock Ness monster. Tomorrow I’m off to the urologist (who received his training in Ghana) with my pockets full of precocet. If you don’t hear from me again after my visit, it’s probably because I developed a wicked case of bad karma to accompany this evil stone. Welcome home Cyni.

Jethro, I am sorry to hear of this painful kidney stone. Holy crap that sounds painful! I'll add some prayers up for relief from this stone. Hey, are you drinking tea? I had a friend who had a kidney stone and was told to stop drinking tea.......he did and then he never had another one. It took a 5-hour stint in the ER and two hits of IV fentanyl to clear my head

Thanks abraxas. Much appreciated. The only tea I drink is unsweetened in place of diet soda when I'm out. I'll bag it ASAP.
#120. To: Jethro Tull (#119)
My friend had opted for tea as a soda replacement too, but no more. It will be wonderful if omitting tea works as well for you as it did for him. : )

And please skip the diet soda too. That aspartame - well you might as well sweeten your drinks with pesticide. I still enjoy an occasional soda - sweetened with real cane sugar. Good ones I know of: Thanks abraxas. Much appreciated. The only tea I drink is unsweetened in place of diet soda when I'm out. I'll bag it ASAP.
Jones Soda
Boyalan (Their Root Beer is divine and tastes the way it used to - similar to the Old A&W.) (Big Lots is the cheapest for it when they have it in stock, and same with Jones Soda.)
Imported Mexican Coke and Sprite - Mexico does not allow the use of High Fructose Corn Death. They taste the way they used to - meaning good - in moderation.

#131. To: More Good News about Jim from Jay (#130)
More good news about Jim. I stopped by the hospital last night and Jim had been sitting upright in a chair most of the afternoon and was worn out from the effort. I left after just a few minutes. This morning he is doing much better. He slept throughout the night and looked good. Four positive events have occurred since since yesterday morning: 1. He had a shave 2. He ate a little soft food (said it was terrible) 3. He had a BM last night (said THAT was great) 4. The NG and oxygen tubes were removed from his nose. The monitoring electrodes are still connected and I assume those will remain at least until he is released from the ICU. He's a happy camper now that all the devices have neen removed from his nose and mouth. The wonders of modern medicine! j *************************** i plan to go see him this afternoon. we spoke on the phone yesterday. Jim sounded real good, but he didn't remember my visit on Monday. i've printed out the thread and will take it to him. :)
#132. To: christine (#131)
Thank you for the positive update on Lod. Jim, hang in there and get better every day!
