I heard that!!! It has long been my contention that the social "needs" of KC increased dramatically after Missourians okayed the lottery, and it has only gotten worse with the "boats". Glad to hear my suspicions were correct. LSA
Well, I'm back. What did I miss?
Seriesly, any mini-dramas upon which I need to be updated? I may or may not get time to read back through the thread.
Trip was good. We is tired.
Oh, and other news:
Good news: Sugar numbers are not up (I'm not diabetic).
Bad news: Cholesterol numbers ARE up...
Corin's back! Yay!
No dramas. A couple weirdoes had this anniversary yesterday so there's probably leftover cake. Lots of chicken posts, lots of bike posts. It's hot everywhere.
Tell us about your trip!
Hmmm......lessee....
Hair and ecurbh's 1st anniversary.
Puffy is on notice and responded by laying her first egg in months
thinking.....
PS - cholesterol? Sounds like you oughta be drinking more red wine...
Get thee to the Zinfandel aisle!
;-)
Welcome back!
So we've been away a lot ourselves, if there've been mini-dramas, we might have missed them too ;~D
Good news about the sugar... It isn't fun to have to worry about that.
Mmmmm.....fresh basil....
Woo-hoo! I'm really, really happy that came through!
Oh...and 2Js right...maybe some "cholesterol medicine" would be beneficial...
Hi everyone!
Welcome back, Corin! :-D
It's been a long day. My ex-MIL was taken to the hospital today by paramedics. They've admitted her because her heart rate does not go above 50, when it's supposed to be somewhere around 60-70 (so the docs say).
I'll defer to 2J's knowledge on this subject.
I'm so tired of hospitals what with my grandfather and all, that it seems overwhelming to even consider the fact that my ex-MIL is in one now.
~sigh~
I don't mean to sound so selfish. :-(
*smiling* I've got apples.
So you're over pineapples?
Oh not at all!
Just haven't done a full grocery for some time, so the pineapples are on lay-a-way. *laughing*
I'll get some next Friday for sure.
Dang! You need a new job if you have to put it on layaway!
hehehehe...
What else do you know? What made the paramedics come get her? Did she pass out?
Does she have a history of heart problems, do you know? Is she taking Lanoxin? It's a heart med that strengthens each beat of the heart, but can slow the rate down. If she's taking too much, that can happen.
Some people just get into a slow rhythm like that and won't come out. It's pretty easy to fix...I imagine they'll try medications first and maybe put in a pacemaker.
What she has is called Bradycardia. There can be any number of causes...
I hope she does well soon Ruthy.
Not selfish at all Ruthy.
And better you vent here rather than there.
;-)
(((Ruthy)))
