Subject: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: katlaughing Date: 09 Sep 09 - 08:03 PM First off - he's okay, well sort of. He's in hospital at least through Saturday while they get rid of a nasty bug, either a cold or something else. He's tested negative for flu; they will be testing him for the swine virus, but that's standard for anyone coming in with respiratory stuff. Anyway...after a long night in the ER, they admitted him and Karen got to go home for about two hours of sleep. She sounds good, but a bit tired. She said he's been sleeping all day and feels miserable. She said this is NOT "the one"...that by tomorrow, he will be a lot better and the antibiotics etc. will have taken effect. She said he's basically in for a tune-up. They would appreciate any spare thoughts, etc. you all may have. I will be calling him, directly, tomorrow for an update. I'd think we've had our fill..nobody else is allowed to get ill on MUdcat, ya hear?!*bg* luvyakat |

Install a fart filter if they have one. Oh, and make sure to send him home healthy again! Good luck, Pat and Karen. Get your rest and take care of yourselves. Maggie |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: Ebbie Date: 09 Sep 09 - 09:30 PM "It neither sings nor dances but it has hairy legs" I suspect that describes the man. We must ask Karen. (Get oudda there, Spaw. I don't like getting teary eyed about you.) |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 09 Sep 09 - 09:36 PM Spare thoughts? Shit, I'm lucky to have one thought a day. How about a spare moment of incoherent gibberish? |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: Little Hawk Date: 09 Sep 09 - 09:44 PM Yikes! Well, Chongo has his usual sage advice to pass on, which is: "Give him lotsa hot mulled cider spiked with even more whisky and rub some powdered red pepper all over him, specially the parts below the belt." I don't know about these chimp cures, though, when it comes to people. Chimps, after all, are tough as hell. |

Wanna make something of it? Don't make me come to Southern Ohio. Please don't. Oh please........... |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: Art Thieme Date: 09 Sep 09 - 10:26 PM Hey, Pat & Karen, Great timing. Prez O. made good cheap healthcare a reality tonight! (Well, not yet exactly, I guess.) Be well quick; and then join The New Crusty Nostrils. I can hear ya now!!!!... Art |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: Janie Date: 09 Sep 09 - 10:40 PM Git well, and git home, 'Spawser. And Karen, you take as good care of yourself as you take of 'Spaw. They don't hospitalize folks for the common cold or a 24 hour virus, so I'm hoping and praying the H. admission is simply about being very cautious with a feller who has had a heap of health problems and interventions. Now that I think about it, when one considers the amount of money that has been invested in keeping the old fart going, he really is an investment Karen wants to protect;^) Probably represents the investment of their life savings, and then some! No wonder we consider him a national treasure. Light and hugs, and watch the coughs - they can cause wet farts. Janie |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: Seamus Kennedy Date: 09 Sep 09 - 11:41 PM Spaw, ya jealous bastard! Ya just can't stand to see Kendall and Tom gettin' all the attention, can ya? No ya can't; so you have to go and get sick to get some sympathy 'n' prayers 'n' stuff. Well, it ain't gonna work, pal, 'cause nobody here gives a rat's ass. So just get your sorry ass outta that hospital and back home, and let Kendall and Tom have all the TLC. Prick! Seamus |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: Neil D Date: 09 Sep 09 - 11:51 PM We agree with Katlaughing, too much with bad news. Get better real quick Spaw, it's not too far to drive, we're in Ohio too. Remember, Neil still has one good leg to kick butt with. Neil and Christina |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: katlaughing Date: 09 Sep 09 - 11:53 PM When they went to the ER, he hadn't taken his evening meds, yet. He kept telling the personnel that he needed to get some meds taken, esp. important things like lasix. I think it was about 6p when they got there. They finally got seen around 10p, admitted and meds administered, which by that time were really needed! Janie, Karen told their son, Michael, "this isn't the one," so I think he's okay. I know it is a long time to keep him, but she feels they have a good handle on treating his symptoms even as they figure out what is causing them. It did start out as a cold and I know he's been really concerned about swine virus, sorry I keep forgetting the proper name for it, H1N1 or whatever it is. I'll post as soon as I talk with him...keep in mind, I am an hour earlier than him and two hours earlier than Mudcat, so those of you in the East and beyond may have to wait a little while in the morning. I'll be sure to pass on the "good" wishes!:-) |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: Art Thieme Date: 10 Sep 09 - 12:07 AM Seamus, That is a unique way to sign your name to your post. I don't think I 've ever seen it done just that way---with that word. ;-) Art |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: Seamus Kennedy Date: 10 Sep 09 - 01:23 AM Art, I believe you missed the word beneath the word you're referring to. *G* Actually I think Prick is the least of Spaw's worries at the moment! Seamus |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: Will Fly Date: 10 Sep 09 - 04:39 AM Well, tut tut - this is what you happens when you curse and swear and use profane language and damn everyone to hell and back and allow foul expletives to flow from your mouth and spout the vocabulary of the cesspool and employ the grammar of the gutter and spew the atrocities of the termagent, the harridan, the fishwife and the damned: You end up in hospital with a lot of sick people. Get well soon - love and kisses Will xxx |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: Tinker Date: 10 Sep 09 - 05:57 AM Ya know the hospital demands so much involuntary action, what with the poking and proding and describing of symptoms.... I was thinking it might be in direct condradiction with that Lay-about-at-Large contract ... But since it might take real work to figure out the direct caluases your in violation of I'll think about it after my morning nap.. Blessings and Light tink |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: Azizi Date: 10 Sep 09 - 07:54 AM Here's a uniquely Pittsburgh message to Spaw: SPEEDY RECOVERY! |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: Severn Date: 10 Sep 09 - 09:20 AM Most of my thoughts are spare, but I'll spare a few for you. Some snappy patter, son...... Don't think of the place as a mere horse-spittle. Think of it as a Health Spaw! Hiring a chimney sweep yearly would've cleaned out the flu. Will you have to recover the couch before he recovers on the couch? How soon will he be Standing Pat? I hope you can find some Pat answers, besides "Blowing In The Wind", of course.... Heal, boy, heal! (Obedience school training) No stranger to Hospital Threads, myself, The New Crispy Minstrel |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: jacqui.c Date: 10 Sep 09 - 09:38 AM Mary's not the only one with Hideobilia to spare so get your arse out of that hospital and back home where it belongs, sir! Karen - take care of yourself my love - lots of good thoughts flying from Maine this morning. |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: Rapparee Date: 10 Sep 09 - 11:06 AM Here's a tip from a nurse of my acquaintance: Make sure the staff washes their hands before they touch you. Otherwise they can spread stuff from people who are really sick to you. It would probably be nice if they cleaned the stuff they stick you with, prod you with, and in general use on you. Especially rectal thermometers, enemas and things like those. You want to be sure that the thermometer they stick in your mouth is the kind that's for sticking in your mouth, too. You might want to check that yourself. |

Subject: RE: BS: Spare thoughts for Spaw & KarenSpaw From: katlaughing Date: 10 Sep 09 - 11:07 AM I hesitate to post this until I can talk to him more, but I think it's best that I do. He sounded awful just now. He had a doc there, so we only spoke for a minute, but when I said you don't sound like you feel good at all, he croaked out a breathless "no." I know he is in one of the best places for good care and Karen believes he will be okay, so I continue with visualisation of him healthy and home. May it be so! I'll probably call Karen at some point today and see what's up. kat |
