Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: ChanteyLass Date: 12 May 11 - 04:03 PM Severn, glad you are able to maintain a sense of humor! |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Rapparee Date: 12 May 11 - 06:39 PM Which humor? Air, fire, water, or dirt? Obviously Sev has one or more off balance or he wouldn't be the sicko he is. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Bill D Date: 13 May 11 - 11:47 AM Sev was in passible form last night, singing behind me and chatting. I think he's on the mend. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: gnu Date: 13 May 11 - 02:59 PM Great news! |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Rapparee Date: 13 May 11 - 10:27 PM He'd better be on the mend. Getaway is coming. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Donuel Date: 13 May 11 - 11:35 PM I got poisoned by some sort of vine and am in day 5 of forearms that that look like they were hit by buckshot. The Doc gave me cortisone. My wife goes in for another surgury this week to enable her to use her leg which has a paralyzed quad. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: ChanteyLass Date: 14 May 11 - 12:03 AM Heal quickly, Donuel, and I hope your wife's surgery goes well. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 14 May 11 - 12:08 AM I'll second that |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Rapparee Date: 14 May 11 - 10:32 AM I'll third that. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: freda underhill Date: 15 May 11 - 06:44 AM 5th, and glad to hear that Sev's in good form too. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Severn Date: 15 May 11 - 09:33 AM Thanks! This place gives us a chance to print the truth about our conditions and recovery, while inventing our own fictional staff of doctors with their own attempts at cures. And it's a place that those who needs to know we will print updates, so that we don't have to tell the same story umpteen million times. I Sixth the emotion and send out my best to all who are struggling with conditions of their own or of their loved ones. That's yet another reason we are here, to be there for each other and provide info and laughter to help out the rest of us. There's plenty of good therapy for all. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 16 May 11 - 01:42 AM I'll second that! where would we be without the Recovery Ward? sandra |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: gnu Date: 15 Jun 11 - 05:21 PM Soooo... I just had a minor "tweak" in the OR and, much to the opposite of what I was told, I had NO pain after the drugs wore off. The OP wasn't a full success as the doc stopped short on one side of my honker to see if the minimal invasiveness would do the trick. Might have to go back and reem out the left nostril some more in 3 to 6 months but it was a walk in the park as far as pain is concerned. Soooo... let's have some updates from the rest of you sickos eh???? Keep! A round for the house! Hmmmm... that's the tavern thread... how long does binlaudid stay in yer system anyway? |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 15 Jun 11 - 09:56 PM well, I have a cold! But it's nearly finished, so I'll just leave a bunch of Australian native flowers & not bring the few remaining germs in! sandra |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: freda underhill Date: 22 Jun 11 - 03:51 AM The corridors are strangely empty.. does that mean we're all ok, or .. how is everyone? |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 22 Jun 11 - 04:04 AM I still have an occasional cough! but nothing worth mentioning. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: gnu Date: 22 Jun 11 - 07:04 PM Odd that there are not more posts given the number of sickos hereaboutst. Of course the mentally disturbed are likely reluctant to post so I guess that rules out a great deal of Mudcatters except for the loikes a me eh? |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Severn Date: 22 Jun 11 - 07:06 PM My computer's been down. My hurts are about the same. I just found out that Social Security is no good for benefits the moment. I will check out the Veteran's Admin. in a few days and hopefully get my own computer back up. Tall tales to come. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 23 Jun 11 - 06:44 AM good luck |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: freda underhill Date: 23 Jun 11 - 07:08 AM A very gnowing comment, gnu. and Sev, not only the same hurts, but a sick computer. good luck with Vet's Admin, all the red tape just adds another layer to it all. and Sandra, see you Sat! |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: GUEST Date: 23 Jun 11 - 10:50 AM Hope it goes well Sev and that the healing progresses. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: gnu Date: 23 Jun 11 - 04:08 PM None of my posts took after I tossed my cookie. Sev... good luck with that and with continued progress in healing. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: ChanteyLass Date: 23 Jun 11 - 09:06 PM Oooh, pretty flowers, Sandra. I hope they cheer those of you who are still having physical problems. They cheered me, and I'm doing well right now! Severn, I hope you can work things out, the back pain, Social Security, and Vet's Admin. Phooey on bureaucracies. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 24 Jun 11 - 01:42 AM yesterday I picked up a nasty vomiting/gastric bug & even tho it is 11 hours since the bug announced it's presence in the very early hours of the morning, I still feel a bit woozey. I spent most of the 11 hours in bed & only got up 90 mins ago. Sometime soonish I'll have a dry bikkie or 2, all I've had is water & paracetamol (tynal or something like that to the US Catters) following advice of a nurse friend I rang a few hours after the bug hit. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Catherine Jayne Date: 24 Jun 11 - 09:19 AM I'm well....now! Had a week in the hospital with kidney stones and a severe kidney infection. Was on IV fluids, antibiotics, morphine and tramadol. Spent a week not really knowing my own name! had a month off work now, 2 weeks of those on jury service. now well and building up my fitness. Back to work on monday! |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: ChanteyLass Date: 24 Jun 11 - 09:58 PM Keep healing, Sandra, Catherine, and everyone else! |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: freda underhill Date: 25 Jun 11 - 02:58 AM This ward is an essential service. Sandram, Catherine Jayne + Sev, thinking of you. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: freda underhill Date: 26 Dec 11 - 05:50 AM All quiet.. does that mean all well? I hope so. Merry Christmas to all freda |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: SINSULL Date: 26 Dec 11 - 01:30 PM Unfortunately or not it is time clean a room or two and wake up the staff. Severn is back in the hospital and will be requiring some after care. Where's Ratched? She needs to get the ice baths up and running.Somebody check out the WiFi. Is there a stock of lime Jell-O? I can go out for supplies if you give me a list... Sister SINS |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 26 Dec 11 - 01:34 PM Great minds think alike, Mary. I just put a note in the Tavern thread. SRS |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: freda underhill Date: 26 Dec 11 - 03:32 PM Thanks, guys, I've just seen the new thread- damn that Nurse Ratched. I saw he was messing around with her in the Tavern - it's dangerous to play with that old witch, I'm glad he's safe + being cared for and will keep in touch. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 27 Dec 11 - 10:52 AM She gets what she deserves if she hangs around Sev - cruel and unusual puns. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: SINSULL Date: 28 Dec 11 - 12:21 PM Severn's room is ready. Jell-O setting up in the fridge. Ratched's ready to perform any surgery necessary but I think we have to convince her to sterilize the chainsaw. Cook is preparing suitable meals. Wheelchair races are being ortganized in the geriatric ward. What else needs doing? |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2011 From: gnu Date: 28 Dec 11 - 02:25 PM Glad to hear of resonable outcomes, so far, for the recovering sickies. I am sick too, but mostly just sick in the head and it's an ongoing condition so it doesn't count. |
