I haven't been on this forum for a while and I can't really say why, but I'm back. I have been have terrible computer problems but hopefully it's fixed for a while. Life has been going great for me. I'm still the secretary in CV Holding at our major hospital, in fact the only hospital now...

We are wanting to take an Alaskan Cruise on our 50th anniversary in July. I'm sure many of you have been. What is the best cruise line and the cheapest way to go? I imagine I had better sign up right away for the best deals. I could get a travel angency to do it for me but they are so darn...

I haven't been on in a while but checked in just a few minutes ago and gosh the new forum looks great. It's easy on the eyes. Hank you did a great job!

How do you find your private messages now and how do you send one? I can't find a icon that says anything about receiving or sending one. Am I just nuts?

I went this afternoon to a new ortho because the bunion (I thought) had grown back on my right foot and has been giving me so much pain. I live on Ibuprofen. It hurts so much just to walk. He took x-rays and said that I had calcium build up from where I had the buion surgery back in 1999...

Well, I just did it! :biggrin2: I booked our trip to Hawaii to see my daughter for October 1st. :smile2:I got the tickets so much cheaper by booking this far ahead. At least we'll have a place to stay when we get there and I just talked to my daughter and she is elated. She has so many...

Well six months really comes around fast. My echo last Friday showed the same results as it did six months ago. My cardio always tell me when I leave that he will see me in his office in another six months or he will see me in ER. What's funny is that since I work on the Cardio floor now I...

I have an echo every six months because supposedly my pig's valve is failing. My cardio told me the same thing he tells me every time. "I'll see you back in six momths or I'll see you in ER. I still don't have any of the symptoms that I guess he thinks I should be having. He also told me that...

I have landed a new position at the hospital. I am now a unit secretary in our Cardio Department. So far I work from 6:00 am till 2:30 pm. I did pull an evening shift last night. (2:00 - 10:30) I really like the evening shift better. And being the new person I have to pull the hours no body...

Well I went and did it. I quit my job this last Friday. My last day will be April 21st. I got so stressed out Friday that I thought I was having a full blown heart attack. My check felt like someone was sitting on it and my left arm and through my shoulders were killing me. I was getting...

I went to my primary doctor this morning for my regular check-up. I've been having trouble with my feet hurting so bad especially my toe on my right foot. I had had bunion surgery quite a few years ago and I've had cortisone shots in it about three months ago. The other day I noticed that...

On top of having a very busy Easter. I got a new dog last night. My husband's brother who lives down at the lake, his son had a dog dropped at his house out in the country. They had had her for two weeks and was keeping her in the garage because he doesn't like animals in the house. He was...

I start my new job at the Pediatric Clinic tomorrow. I can hardly wait. It's a part-time position working days. My husband hasn't like me working evenings at all. We have argued more these last ten months than we have in 48 years of marriage. My marriage is more important then some stupid...

I had my six month check-up with my cardio on Friday and he said he doesn't understand how I am still going. He said my body is seriously rejecting my aorta valve that I had done five years ago. He asked my about symptoms and I really don't have any. He said there are three things to watch...

I haven't been online for a while. One of my oldest grandsons (24) over dosed last Thursday night. Thank goodness I was working that night and was already at the hospital. I made it downstairs to ER before the ambulance even got there. He has done this before but has never come this close to...

Well, I've done it again, come down with a terrible head/chest cold. I really think it's because I've been under so much stress at work. We are so understaffed and have so many unhappy people working in the General Surgery department that it is affecting everyone. We have had four nurses quit...

I haven't seen Cort post here for a couple of weeks. Has anyone heard from him? He had stopped in Joplin on in Route 66 trip but that was a couple of weeks ago. I figured he would be back home by this time. I'm just worried about him!

A friend just sent to me and I wanted to share: HOW TO STAY YOUNG We all need to read this one over and over untiil it becomes part of who we are! 1. Try everything twice. On one woman's tombstone she said she wanted this epitaph: "Tried everything twice, loved it both times!" 2. Keep...

Does anyone know Cord's last name. I guess he is on a road trip through Joplin. He had left a message on my cell phone and I missed it. I just got off work from the hospital and it's now 12:10 am. He wanted to meet for breakfast in the am. He told me which motel he staying at and I know...

Last week when I went to the doctor I had lost over 95 pounds so far. I now have 40 to go. Isn't that great? The doctor was so pleased. He took me off most all my medicines. My sugar count is normal, my blood pressure is normal, my right knee doesn't hurt anymore and my joints don't hurt...
