Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday From: Amos Date: 20 Sep 09 - 03:51 PM Pat: Don't worry about the short-lung capacity. Move slow, sleep a lot, do small things and walk a little now and then. It WILL build back up to normal. Well, not that anything about you could be called that, but you know what I mean... That's the way peeneumonia rolls, dude--the recovery is a long gradient but just take it one step after another, you dumb shit. Boy, am I glad you came out of there dick first. A |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: SINSULL Date: 20 Sep 09 - 03:05 PM Harumph! May the Bird of Paradise fly up your nose May an elephant carress you with his toes May your wife be plagued with runners in her hose (maybe not) May the Bird of Paradies fly up your nose. Glad you're home, Spaw. Take it easy... SINS the Grump |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: katlaughing Date: 20 Sep 09 - 02:55 PM Just got off the phone with himself. He's doing pretty good until he tries to do anything; then it's wipeout time. We're going to have to be happy with the one or two postings he's been able to do, for a while, folks. They've got some rearranging to do at home for convalescing and he's got to take it slow and steady. Lucky for him, he doesn't have to be on supplemental O2! The dog, bird, and cats are happy he's home, as are the kids and KarenSpaw, of course. The bird was REALLY loudly proclaiming her/his joy!:-) |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: gnu Date: 20 Sep 09 - 02:28 PM Easy, SINS... there will be lots of time to kick him in the nuts in about six weeks. If you stress him out, it may take longer and the lineup will grow longer too. I hate standing in line... of course, ladies first... >;-) |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: katlaughing Date: 20 Sep 09 - 02:01 PM Spawdarlin'...think beyond six weeks and don't push it, okay? You know what I've just been through the past five months. NOT that you have to take that long and you probably have a jump start on where I started since they didn't incarcerate me and ya had yer own thread, BUT DON'T PUSH IT!! If it takes longer, it takes longer and use yer O2, if they were smart enough to prescribe it, okay? And, do NOT worry about posting here. it's enough to know you are home.:-) luvyabuncheskatstillshakybutgettingbetter |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: SINSULL Date: 20 Sep 09 - 01:18 PM Enough of this Poor Spaw crap. The one who really deserves the sympathy and cards (probably not Boberts) is Karen. That idiot husband of hers ignored a cold knowing where it could go (Damn it, Spaw! I am really pissed at this one)leaving her holding the bag full of doctor.s meetings, snotty nurses and dirty laundry. I am going to find the most horrible piece of hideobilia and sent it to this saint of a lady. Spaw is getting the mean little nuns to watch over him with a big ruler. Poor Tris and Michael get caught up in this BS too. It must scare them to death. You damn fool - if you do so much as sneeze, you see a doctor! Got it? Much love, Auntie SINS |

From: wysiwyg Date: 20 Sep 09 - 12:47 PM If digital audiobooks can help pass the time for Pat, somebuddy pls PM me with interests and address, and I will run up an MP3 CD ASAP. (I may even still have a spare player and earbuds, if he lacks one.) ~Susan |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: gnu Date: 20 Sep 09 - 12:45 PM Ebbie... "Congratulations to us all!" How perfectly fitting. Almost brought a tear to my eye... the good one. You have reminded me by that concise accolade of the contributions Pat has made to The Mudcat Café in so many ways over the years. The writings and stories, being a friend to all, leading the way in fund drives, defending and supporting the policies that make this vauable resource what it is, and using his unique vernacular to call a broke d... you know, amongst others. Congrats indeed. Thanks Ebbie. Now... enough of that. Six weeks before you can take a good kick in the nuts? Brings a tear to me bad eye. |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: Alice Date: 20 Sep 09 - 12:40 PM So... I wasn't the only one who sent you the "It's a Boy!" card! Great to see you back! All the best, Alice |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: Ebbie Date: 20 Sep 09 - 12:25 PM There is a reason why you named yourself 'CATspaw', Spaw. Congratulations to us all! |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: Leadfingers Date: 20 Sep 09 - 12:16 PM Welcome back On Line !! |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: jacqui.c Date: 20 Sep 09 - 12:09 PM Whew! So glad to see you back at the keyboard Spaw. Glad you liked the card. Now, keep on keeping on, relax and do exactly as Karen tells you. She knows what's best right now so if she tells you to go boil your head you know enough to do just that! |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: gnu Date: 20 Sep 09 - 12:01 PM YO SPAW!!!! |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: catspaw49 Date: 20 Sep 09 - 11:50 AM Well first.....Thanks to you all and as usual there are never enough words to say what is really in my heart. I do want some of you to know I was able to deliver all the babies successfully ...... Kendall sent me a lovely photo card---a fuck you right back atcha' ...... and Bobertz card put me in the mood as well as the staff. In all seriousness I will come back with more detail about this nasty one later but the pneumonia took over 50% of the volume in both lungs and the Docs say it will be at least 6 weeks to fully recover and assure its gone. Folks, this one was bad. I feel pretty good but get tired almost immediately.....simply amazing how weak I am......and a bit depressing as well. So I'm gonna' take it easy getting back here as well. I had a few laughs in the hospital as well though which will add to my continued collection of dumb medical crappola. Thanks again and I'm damn glad to be out and about again, even if a little slower! Much love to you all. And Greg? Dodged another one old buddy --- LOL..... Spaw |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday From: Amos Date: 19 Sep 09 - 09:32 PM With friends like us, he doesn't NEED enemas! A |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: katlaughing Date: 19 Sep 09 - 08:05 PM Bobert, he did get your card! He also got all of the other ones from the hospital e-card link.:-) I am sure it's going to take him a day or two to settle in at home, folks...energy level is still depleted some, ya know? |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: Peace Date: 19 Sep 09 - 07:31 PM Four days in the hospital and he took a turn for the nurse . . . . |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: Rapparee Date: 19 Sep 09 - 06:15 PM I understand that he was tossed out of the horsespittle because they couldn't keep him under a fume hood big enough and the EPA got after them for the unnecessary, illegal, and totally unjustified release of noxious fumes. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: John MacKenzie Date: 19 Sep 09 - 05:05 PM Well where is the flatulent fool, has he been sprung yet? Is he being returned to the bosom of his family because he's better, or because the hospital have had enough of his stories about the Reg Boys? Enquiring minds and all that. JM |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: Bobert Date: 19 Sep 09 - 05:00 PM Sheet fire!!! Tje boy musta gotten my card if he's out this quick... B~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: gnu Date: 19 Sep 09 - 04:45 PM Ya needs a proper hoser eh! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: Rapparee Date: 19 Sep 09 - 03:23 PM It's the enemas he'll still need that'll make him holler "ARRGH! me hearties!" -- especially when they miss with hose. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: scouse Date: 19 Sep 09 - 12:01 PM Didn't know Spaw was Ill as I'm just back from Hols. Get well soon please.. As Aye, Phil |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday From: VirginiaTam Date: 19 Sep 09 - 04:01 AM Woot! Wow! Wonderful! Make him take it easy. No taxing himself with undue outbursts of profanity. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday From: Janie Date: 18 Sep 09 - 09:26 PM Once home, don't you dare shake hands or let the kids touch you before thoroughy washing or sanitizing their hands. They will be glad they did, rather to have to deal with your sorry ass in the hospital! Love, Janie |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: bbc Date: 18 Sep 09 - 08:52 PM Great news! Thanks, kat! Heal well, Pat! Karen, you can take a breath now. love, Barbara |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday From: Andrez Date: 18 Sep 09 - 08:07 PM If the measure of how well a person is cared for is the amount of sh*t that is dumped, shovelled, thrown, hurled or otherwise propelled at them, then 'Spaw is well and truly loved. On the scale of 1 to 10 on the Sh*t-O-Meter he must be a 12, and if laughter can heal all then he'll live and post on the 'Cat for another century or two at least! Dunno if I'll be around that long though :-( Cheers, Andre |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: Fortunato Date: 18 Sep 09 - 07:06 PM Good. I'm sure the nurses will be glad to see the backside of him, but I suppose they've seen that already. 'Spaw, when you read this and you're back home safe and sound, imagine me with my tongue sticking out going "thppppppppppssss". cheers chance |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: Jeri Date: 18 Sep 09 - 05:53 PM I'm willing to bet they made the mistake of letting him eat something and now just long for the good ol' days when the only thing that flammable was O2. I'm sincerely glad he's doing that much better. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: Peace Date: 18 Sep 09 - 05:45 PM Good news, indeed! |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: jeffp Date: 18 Sep 09 - 05:43 PM Great news! Thanks, kat, for keeping us informed. |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: katlaughing Date: 18 Sep 09 - 05:29 PM LOL..uh-oh...I think maybe he's been practising in hospital with an Arrgggh here and there whilst being drained, pumped up, and various other invasive "procedures." Here's to a decluttering of life! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: Hollowfox Date: 18 Sep 09 - 05:08 PM Yeah, Kat, I haven't been able to visit every day lately. My life isn't so much a disaster as it is cluttered. Do you realize that Spaw is coming home on Talk Like A Pirate Day? |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw - home on Saturday! From: gnu Date: 18 Sep 09 - 05:02 PM Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw update - out of ICU! From: katlaughing Date: 18 Sep 09 - 04:38 PM Yes!! He sounds SO much better! Just got off the phone with him. He is going home tomorrow morning! He will be back online in a day or two. I told him not to rush it, but he's got to do some other computer stuff, anyway, so we might have a sighting in a couple of days. You folks are wonderful! kat |

|
Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw update - out of ICU! From: gnu Date: 18 Sep 09 - 02:20 PM Yo, Spaw... I decided to keep my old truck for at least a few more months so you can rest up some more in the spa before I need your help again. Glad the pressure is off you now and you can relax. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw update - out of ICU! From: Hollowfox Date: 18 Sep 09 - 02:09 PM (Jay-sus! I go walkabout for a bit and I come back to this...) Well, 'Spaw, I'm glad you're out of ICU. When you'r ell enough to complain, they know you're not sick enough to be in ICU any more. Now fagawdsakes, stop with the over-testosteronated assholery of saying "I'm not sick" until wou have to be wheeled into the hospital! It's not just hard on you, it's hard on Karen and the boys, not to mention all us slack-jawed idiots here at the 'Cat. Don't make me get all Mommy on your sorry ass! Now, down to business. Good thoughts and prayers are rushing to you and yours right now, and the Gen-u-ine Pure-Bred Midwestern $#@!-reduction candle series will start up when I get home from work. |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw update - out of ICU! From: open mike Date: 18 Sep 09 - 12:35 PM the best part about getting back home will be wearing real clothes again...not the gowns that are often doomed to wardrobe failure worse than Janet Jackson experienced...... you might need a pair of these to complete your outfit. http://www.mcphee.com/shop/products/Handerpants.html |
