Subject: RE: Severn's Round 2 Chemo (24 Jan 2012) From: Charley Noble Date: 24 Jan 12 - 04:11 PM I'll be making a direct appeal to some ancient Ethiopian gods on Severn's behalf, pouring them a libation of honey mead from a horn cup. The old gods don't get much attention these days and, who knows, may actually be motivated to help. Charley Noble |
Subject: RE: Severn's Round 2 Chemo (24 Jan 2012) From: GUEST,999 Date: 24 Jan 12 - 04:25 PM Please pass this on to Severn and let him know I'll call tonight or tomorrow. Bruce. "My wife found out that our dog (a Schnauzer) could hardly hear, so she took it to the veterinarian. The vet found that the problem was hair in the dog's ears. He cleaned both ears, and the dog could then hear fine. The vet then proceeded to tell Andrea that, if she wanted to keep this from recurring, she should go to the store and get some "Nair" hair remover and rub it in the dog's ears once a month. Andrea went to the store and bought some "Nair" hair remover. At the register, the pharmacist told her, "If you're going to use this under your arms, don't use deodorant for a few days." Andrea said, "I'm not using it under my arms." The pharmacist said, "If you're using it on your legs, don't use body lotion for a couple of days." Andrea replied, "I'm not using it on my legs either. If you must know, I'm using it on my Schnauzer." The pharmacist says, "Well, stay off your bicycle for about a week." |

Subject: RE: Severn's Round 2 Chemo (24 Jan 2012) From: LilyFestre Date: 24 Jan 12 - 10:13 PM Severn, Sit back, relax, let the nurses take extra super good care of you. Talk to the people in the chair next to you...the community of love and support in the chemo chair and surroundings is like no other. If you have a port, make sure to ask for Lidacaine creams and a patch so that event becomes pain free. Rest easy my friend and know that we're all pulling for you. XOXOXOXOXOOXOXO Michelle, former Queen of the Chemo Chair |

Subject: RE: Severn's Round 2 Chemo (24 Jan 2012) From: Stilly River Sage Date: 25 Jan 12 - 12:04 AM Groan at Rap and smile with Michelle's advice - she knows what she's talking about! Take care, Severn. Stay above it, ride the chemo like a wave - there are highs and lows, but if you're calm, you'll stay out of the troughs and will fare much better. SRS |

Subject: RE: Severn's Round 2 Chemo (24 Jan 2012) From: Rapparee Date: 25 Jan 12 - 09:40 AM Sev, just because I called you "Chemo Sabe" doesn't mean you have to become chemo savvy. |
Subject: RE: Severn's Round 2 Chemo (24 Jan 2012) From: ranger1 Date: 25 Jan 12 - 09:59 AM Sev, just for you, because I'm told laughter is the best medicine: Dead penguins- I never knew this..but it's a fact! I never knew this about Penguins… Did you ever wonder why there are no dead penguins on the ice in Antarctica - where do they go? Wonder no more ! ! ! It is a known fact that the penguin is a very ritualistic bird which lives an extremely ordered and complex life. The penguin is very committed to its family and will mate for life, as well as maintaining a form of compassionate contact with its offspring throughout its life. If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of the family and social circle have been known to dig holes in the ice, using their vestigial wings and beaks, until the hole is deep enough for the dead bird to be rolled into and buried. The male penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave and sing: "Freeze a jolly good fellow" |

Subject: RE: Severn's Round 2 Chemo (24 Jan 2012) From: LilyFestre Date: 25 Jan 12 - 10:54 PM Hey Severn....how's food tasting to you? If you get metal mouth from the chemo, skip the mouthwash (which never works for that) and try sucking on a lemon or something sour. It helps!!!!! XOOXOXOXOXOX Thinking about you today!! Michelle |

What grand friends, eh? May you sail through and be free of concern, full of ease and comfort with a full return to health. luvyakat |
Subject: RE: Severn's Round 2 Chemo (24 Jan 2012) From: Ferrara Date: 25 Jan 12 - 11:27 PM It was great to see you at the pub sing, Severn. You really looked great, and it was a pleasure to hear you singing on almost every chorus. How was the late-night open mike session? SO glad they're letting you stay in hosp, where somebody else can empty the buckets. Rest. I'm looking forward to your concert at the Mini next week. |
Subject: RE: Severn's Round 2 Chemo (24 Jan 2012) From: Severn Date: 25 Jan 12 - 11:35 PM Very appropriate that I'm wearing my Penguin PJ pants. Thanks again to Emily and to Phil Fox for the haircut pix on FB and for driving and other logistics. And,of course, to all of you carters for your mere existence and continuing friendship and support. |

Subject: RE: Severn's Round 2 Chemo (24 Jan 2012) From: Stilly River Sage Date: 26 Jan 12 - 01:41 PM Penguin PJs. . . take a moment to visualize that. It goes well with the Howdy Doody bathrobe. |
Subject: RE: Severn's Round 2 Chemo (24 Jan 2012) From: gnu Date: 26 Jan 12 - 02:09 PM You can do it, Sev. Just one more day of not chatting up nurses. I KNOW you can do it. Like Spaw says, urges pass. Today, I kept my eyes closed for most of over an hour of a shocking experience during electrodiagnostic nerve tests. Oooo, me nerves. I'd say the trainee was in her early twenties and she was a looker. Of course, I could not nor would not try to chase a lass 30 years younger but that wasn't my concern. >;-) |

Subject: RE: Severn's Round 2 Chemo (24 Jan 2012) From: Rapparee Date: 26 Jan 12 - 09:59 PM Vitamin C can help a lot, I understand. So get some and take lots of it. Photograph yourself taking it -- I want to have a visual on where Severn meets the C. |
