He said his last 4 treatments were coming up this week on T-W-Th-F and then he's done! He was in good spirits and had several stories to tell, despite a raspy voice, and it was great seeing him, despite the "redneck" disguise. |

28 May 02 - 12:59 PM (#718849) Subject: RE: Kendall's Cure From: catspaw49 Old recipe for Salt Curing Kendall, this method can preserve Kendall for years. For a 170lb. Kendall: 33 Pounds of Brown Sugar 10 Pounds of Black Pepper 5 Pounds of Red Pepper 58 Pounds of Salt Mix the ingredients together and rub onto the skin-on Kendall, paying special attention to the ass. Then the Kendall is wrapped in paper, then wrapped in cloth, then placed in a cloth bag and hung with the ass down. The Kendall is hung in a well ventilated, dark and secure building. The Kendall bitches for about two months and is ready to piss, moan, whine, and complain continually, in about 6 to 9 months and is still a pain in the ass years. Kendalls cured in this manner continue to stay curmudgeonly until they are completely dried out. Spaw |

It works that way for most people. " Most people - this direction. Kendall - anywhere but there. (grin) This fight/flight vs mothering instinct, in the case of sickness, is obviously another case to add to the files on the great psychological and linguistic divide between men & women. Hubby gets cranky if I "mother" him when he's sick and wants to just be left alone. I get cranky because he is "ignoring" me when I am sick when I need some loving attention/support. Just been watching Allan Pease videos on body language etc and his latest called Why Men Don't Listen and Women Can't Read Maps. It's really funny, and very apt. Get back to your normal healthy cantankerous (marshmallow-hearted) self, Kendall. ASAP. Helen |

However, they told her that the effects she is feeling right now are from several weeks ago, and the effects from the later radiation are still to come. Perhaps that is what you are going through right now, Kendall? I hope very much that you will see a dramatic improvement in a week or so, both in your throat and in your energy level. The throat is such a vital, vulnerable part of us that aggressive invasion of any sort is a pain (no pun intended). Be well.

08 Jun 02 - 09:14 PM (#726300) Subject: RE: Kendall's Cure From: Stilly River Sage If I were in your situation now, I'd be looking to diet and herbal remedies to provide comfort and extra energy. Slipperybark elm is one you should look for. Avoid the sugar still. Get LOTS OF SLEEP in a regular pattern, if possible. I heard somewhere recently that it isn't just getting 8 hours, but getting to bed before midnight for those 8 hours. The earlier in the evening you go to sleep, evidently the better it is for you. I don't have chapter and verse to back this up, but observed for myself through my recovery that getting to bed early made a huge difference. The countdown was intended to give you a jumping off point for beginning to feel better, giving a psychological advantage. You'll get better, but on your time schedule, not the lists'. Take care!

He had a co-author who helped him put together all the stories of his life. It is such a treasure.

Slippery bark elm sounds like something you don't want to come across if you're taking a walk in the woods. :-) Was Dawson from Dallas? Sounds like a story from down here; he died a few months ago, at something like 102. Very long life, and what a wonderful example he set for so many people. Kendall, look out for the boiled okra if you're headed South to start eating. It's one of those dishes that you had to be raised with to even consider eating. Fried is much better. (A tip, in what you will consider hindsight--you could possibly have skipped the radiation treatment altogether if you'd opted for the Barbecue Cure. Have to pick the right southern state to get the proper formulation of pork vs. beef, whole vs. chopped, and the correct spicy sauce for YOUR form of cancer, however. . .) SRS |

Storytellers, though.... well, I guess they're all right too. I'm awfully glad you're getting this behind you, Kendall. Sorry I'll miss you at Old Songs, but I'm sure I'll see you down the road - next February, if not sooner. In the meantime, REST UP! Dan Schatz |

Another was a mobile home park that a tornado went around. Why is a redneck divorce like a tornado? Either way, someone loses a trailer.... Peter.

12 Jun 02 - 12:28 PM (#728395) Subject: RE: Kendall's Cure From: kendall I've been pondering that. Still cant sing, or speak properly, but, a number of women have threatened to hug me if I go, so,I might show up to support my old pal, Gordon at the restaurant venue.Could be a very nice outing. |

12 Jun 02 - 02:14 PM (#728505) Subject: RE: Kendall's Cure From: kendall Gordon just e mailed me to say that his brother Tony, a dear friend of mine, passed away. He was a victim of A.L.S (Lou Gerhigs disease) I am very very sad. |

12 Jun 02 - 03:24 PM (#728573) Subject: RE: Kendall's Cure From: Deda I'm so sorry to hear that you're getting hit with the loss of a dear friend right now when that's about the last thing you need. I click on this thread periodically just to see if the famous Down Easterner is getting along OK, very quietly cheering you on. I'm really sorry about your friend Tony. |

12 Jun 02 - 03:54 PM (#728587) Subject: RE: Kendall's Cure From: Ebbie I don't know where the phrase "misery loves company" came from. In my experience, when I've been really down and heard of someone else also going through a rough patch, it didn't make me feel better- it just confirmed for me that the world is a really sad place. But it's also a lovely place, Kendall. And that's what I look at most of the time now. |

12 Jun 02 - 04:14 PM (#728607) Subject: RE: Kendall's Cure From: Bat Goddess Hey, Kendall! Add me to the list of women who want to hug you, whether you show up in Kennebunk (which I hope you will) or not. I sincerely hope your recovery from the cure is rapid. (There are times the cure seems to be worse than the problem, doesn't it?) Sorry to jump into this thread late -- I haven't been ignoring you or not thinking about you; just away from a computer for over 2 weeks. (Couldn't find a computer in Milwaukee, just brats and brewskis.) Love ya lots and hope you and your voice are feeling better REAL SOON! Linn |

12 Jun 02 - 08:08 PM (#728793) Subject: RE: Kendall's Cure From: Stilly River Sage Kendall, The tears from losing a good friend aren't going to make your throat feel any better, probably worse, but the rest of your system will benefit from a good cry. ALS. What a horrible wasting disease to die from. The father of one of my closest friends is in the end stages of ALS now. Celebrate your friend's life, and be grateful that his suffering is finished. SRS

Just sent you some super charged positive and loving thoughts. I will hug you at the world mudcat gathering |

18 Jun 02 - 02:10 PM (#732340) Subject: RE: Kendall's Cure From: bfolkemer Kendall, I'm geting into this thread really late. I was thrilled to scan the messages and find out you're done with radiation. It seems to me that when I have been really sick, had surgery, etc., that I didn't necessarily feel better everyday, but I could see progress from week to week. I'm saddened to read about Tony. I ran into ALS a lot when I was hospice chaplain--such a cruel disease. I hope his family and friends are able to stick together as they grieve. Sending prayers your way, Beth |

18 Jun 02 - 03:03 PM (#732369) Subject: RE: Kendall's Cure From: Stilly River Sage Hey, Kendall, can you see a difference this week from last week? The throat less sore, the voice a bit smoother? (I'm experiencing sympathetic vibrations with your throat this week, having come down with laryngitis. I hope we're both better soon!) SRS |

19 Jun 02 - 12:43 PM (#732986) Subject: RE: Kendall's Cure From: Naemanson Kendall, I haven't kept an eye on this thread since my last post. It was only last night at Roll & GO rehearsal that I heard the news about Tony Bok. I never knew him but I could see you were not quite up to snuff when I saw you on Saturday. I put it down to you cure and recovery. I am sorry to have missed the chance to meet someone who meant so much to you. I hope as you hold him in your heart you find that place to be always sunlit and warm. |

19 Jun 02 - 06:53 PM (#733241) Subject: RE: Kendall's Cure From: GUEST,Kendall Hey folks, please welcome my old friend Euclid. He just joined Mudcat, and, a fine addition he will be too. I'm visiting my buddy, Dave Mallett, and using his confuser. Today he took me to the spot where his grand dads barn burned down when he was 9 years old. It was the inspiration for his classic saga titled "Fire" We have been doing a little picking and story swapping. I'm off to a bluegrass festival for the weekend, gonna drive the banjo pickers nuts with my open back, no tone ring Vega!

19 Jun 02 - 07:11 PM (#733258) Subject: RE: Kendall's Cure From: Midchuck Kendall, get me a snailmail address for Dave Mallet. We'll probably do "Ballad of St. Anne's Reel" when we get onto our 3rd CD, and I'd rather send him the statutory royalties directly (pittance that they'll be) than let Harry Fox bite off a huge chunk.
