hi all for those who are new here don mckinley is my adopted 'cyber-dad' he has the worst spelling keyboard on the planet and sometimes when he writes something worth reading [hah!] i 'translate' it for him [just kidding, dad, every single message you write is worth reading] sis aka janet At 11:23 1999/11/10 -0800, cyber-dad-don wrote: TIP OF THE DAY DO TODAY WHAT YOU SHOULD HAVE DONE YESTERDAY i have been very sick, mentally and general-health-wise. my fingers have healed fine [from the fire] - they still have a smoke smell, which i cannot smell. [lucky me!] i finally gave in - i am going to see 3 different doctors. it's a matter of my going willingly or being carried.[!] i then will decide what I WANT TO DO - it is my life. i still have not got over the last time in hospital; [when i went in for some surgery and ended up in ICU for 5-1/2 months] i still will not go to see anyone in hospital. but i look like a lady with a child. my waist went from 30 inches to 35 inches in 3 weeks. my weight has gone from 110 to 140 in 3 weeks. there is a lot of pain in my belly. [must be the dog-gone baby kicking!] lolo [laughing out loud] no need to call. i can't eat or sleep. i still read the listmail but have trouble in understanding a lot. it bothers me that i have to hire people to do stuff i usually do myself. like getting the leaves up with my tractor. my baby [youngest daughter cheryl] said if any thing goes bad she will let you all know. it so easy to give advice, but to take it is something else. I DO KNOW I WILL BEAT THIS PD. but on my own terms. they took my friend to the MAYO CLINIC. i was right. they asked through his friend for me to keep working with him. as of now i've got a lot on my mind 3333 [ed.- ?is this a secret code?] i can be of help. C.G.'S know what we PWP'S go through. i hope i am making some horse sense here .... i did eat a whole hamburger yesterday. the DOCTOR WHO operated the first time is not sure if he wants to do it again. but he thinks he learned a lot through me. as well as about PD. all so flash backs VETS, you know what i mean. so please don't worry, i am just a mean young old good-looking guy. LOLO I.Y.Q. [say it fast!] DON AND VIVIAN [THE LOVE OF MY LIFE - FOR 54 YEARS] PS MY 'BABY' IS 50 YEARS OLD NOW LOLO! BEST MED FOR PD IS AVOID BITING WHEN A SIMPLE GROWL WILL DO LOLO!
