I don’t drop in this thread too often, but I mentioned an injury and shown lots of concern. This is a good place.

You should stop in more often, Dude!

Yesterday was filled with many emotions. My gift was my granddaughter clinging to me as I carried her into daycare, brunch with my GF and dinner with my son. The sadness came as I learned my brother in law of 57 years (like a brother) is fading from kidney failure. I am hoping he makes it to his dialysis on Wednesday. My sister needs to vent to me. Friends continue to vent to me about their problems.

It gets lonely as I am dealing with my own health issues (possible prostate cancer). I really miss my wife in these times.

I am thankful for all of you!

Life is, at times, a very difficult journey and one where support from others, whether physical or moral, is essential. I am sorry that your wife is no longer able to help you, I know I would be utterly lost without mine. This is, perhaps where online communities such as this can really come into their own. There is always someone here to listen and offer some genuine words of comfort. Feel free to unburden yourself rather than internalise your feelings. Good luck to your brother in law and to you with your own health issues.

I can't laugh....I will fart and never trust a fart

Working up the nerve to drink dose 2 of 2..... It is awful.....

Is it golitely (a misnomer if there ever was one!) or mg citrate (almost as vile!)?

 

[Lilianna23]

You can laugh. Just be appropriately parked on your throne of destiny!


This too shall pass... (I don't think they have a dying laughing emoji, but they need one!)

"Throne of destiny!"

 

[Lilianna23]

You can do this!! Means to an end.
If it's like the colonoscopy prep, that's the worst part IMO.
Thinking of you!!

It is the colonoscopy prep K is doing.

 

[Lilianna23]

I was right...it was awful.... I took the 2 of 2 dose and I almost puked

That stuff is just nasty! And not in the good way!

 

[Lilianna23]

Yep..... 8 am eating a green popsicle now.... I am freaking hungry for food...

I weigh in in the am...and for dinner...thinking pasta or pizza..... with some veggies

Good! Plan your reward!

 

[nipplecaresser]

I was right...it was awful.... I took the 2 of 2 dose and I almost puked

I have surveillance colonoscopies every three years and the 'prep days' before each are hands-down my least favourite days of the year. Soon be over though, so fingers crossed that time seems to pass more quickly for you today.

 

[Lilianna23]

I took some extra time. Knew the first few days would be the toughest. So far the Tylenol-Ibuprofen tag team is doing the job.

Supposed to ice 20min each hour. Keep feet elevated over heart 23 hrs a day. Plus limit walking for the first few days. Twice a day foot soaks and rebandaging start tomorrow. Plus lower leg exercises 4-5x a day. Who knew there was so much just to get rid of pesky ingrown toenails?

Glad I opted to get both sides of both big toes done at the same time. Clean sweep.

Can't imagine doing this 4x (although for just one corner of the toe they do it in the office w/ a local). After care is much the same though.

I'm going to remember to tip my nail tech extravagantly next time! Ain't no way I want to go throught that!

 

[Lilianna23]

Yeah it's horrible!

The only thing I could do when I was eviscerating the toilet was laugh.
My wife was in the room next door, and I could hear her snickering at me.
She's next for something similar, this month actually...

You be nice...!!!

 

[Lilianna23]

We only had one choice: eat it, you little son of a bitch.


Off . . . .

Same.

 

[Lilianna23]

Time to check out of here...

You hang in the @Missk_2022. Hope everything goes well tomorrow.

Good night, DKA!

 

[Lilianna23]

Night all....

I hope you can get some sleep, K. Did you chux the bed?

 

[Lilianna23]

I'm heading to bed, too. Long day for doing mostly nothing.

Sweet dreams all...

Sleep well, Likes! ️

 

[Lilianna23]

It's just after 2200 PST. I need to get to bed early tonight as I have people showing up to my house at the ungodly hour of 0900!

Have a wonderful Wednesday, all! ️

Ok so I have not visited this thread in a long time and I just randomly clicked on it as I woke up and can’t fall back to sleep! so my comment on the colonoscopy prep….isn’t it an easy way to lose 5 lbs overnight? at least that’s one positive?

 

[dynamo24]

But in all seriousness wishing you a clean bill of health after your colonoscopy @B2fromA2looking4U

 

[nipplecaresser]

Good morning all, have a wicked Wednesday. A little more gentle humour to, hopefully, put a smile on your face.

I went out for a few drinks with my wife to our local bar. We were enjoying a few drinks when I noticed that she kept on looking at a drunken man who was smashing back drinks all by himself in the corner of the room.

I asked her, "Do you know that man?"

"Yes", she said sadly,

"He is my old flame who I dated in high school, I heard that he hit the bottle hard immediately after we broke up years ago, and he hasn't been a sober man since."

"Oh my gosh!" I replied, "Who would think a person could continue celebrating for so long?"

And that's how the fight started...

----------------------------------------------------

My wife was standing naked in front of the bathroom mirror.

She had a look of frustration on her face and turned to me and said. "I no longer am happy with my appearance. I feel awful and I look wrinkled, fat and old. I really need you to give me a compliment to make me feel better."

I responded, "My darling, you have 20 20 vision."

And that's how the fight started...

 

[Missk_2022]

I know, sweetie!

I said a little prayer to apologize to every patient that i gave this shit too and encouraged to drink.... i deserve a punch in the nose

 

[Missk_2022]

Is it golitely (a misnomer if there ever was one!) or mg citrate (almost as vile!)?

It is called sureprep 2 6 oz bottles of evil

 

[Missk_2022]

I hope you can get some sleep, K. Did you chux the bed?

Nope ...I just got up to do guess what.... and I am npo and my stomach is growling

 

[Wonderer67]

Thank you for your service!

Well, i am a huge fan of servicing women, so there’s that.

 

[Wonderer67]

I will need to call a company soon to get the inspection done.

It’s a good thing to put on your list so you can out a satisfying strike through on your to do list when done!!

We are a real (well ok, it is fully electronic) community.

When my kids used to be social media saying she had friends all over the place I used to sort of roll my eyes. Now I get what she was saying.

We are a virtual community.
