it's been a pretty good 25 years

[dishuser]

but with everything I was already dealing with and the events a few days ago I don't think I can continue
if I don't see any of you again I hope to see you on the other side of the bridge
but I seriously doubt we're all crossing the same bridge...lol

I'm not a religious person but I just want to wish you and your loved ones God speed on whatever journey you are about to embark on. The journey is never over until one reaches the final destination. Never met you but you were one of the few people on this site that I would have enjoyed meeting. I also appreciate the fact that you seemed to like my posts and I thank you for that. I think that you're a fighter so keep fighting the good fight.

[TLG]

I don't know what you're going through,,, be strong and courageous
Take a moment to think of all the wonderful things you've accomplished
and, all the wonderful people you have near you at this moment
your legacy will will live for ever in those who were nearest and dearest to you

I am not a religious person either, but I always liked this verse

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

COPD is the major thing being tied to oxgen has got me slowed down but not done. I have a nice shop an not wanting to give that up but starting to sell tools and getting out.

My neighbor who is on hospice has had lung cancer for 2 years now and they only gave her 3 months to live. She keeps telling me it's hard to kill a cockroach. So don't give up yet.

[surfinisfun]

How is Andy (Snaggle Tooth, Rom10x), btw? That Rat Bastard put a lot of good ppl away!

Well, I always knew what you looked like Rotten because 25 years ago you released a pic of you in a cowboy hat and long leather coat. Do you still have it? Your hair was a lot darker and I think you were wearing sun glasses also. I always wondered what you do for a living. I didn’t know at that time that you were also a dog lover, but now I know. I always thought about you. I always wondered about you. I think you are an interesting person I would like to know more about.

If you have written a bio, please direct me to this info. If you have not, please think about doing so because your story is very important to those of us that suffered along side you, in the beginning. ��

This is not farewell.

[dishuser]

I first learned everything from chas 1964
smart woman
then x-15 taught me a bit about coding
after that dtyen47 taught me about blockers
if it weren't for those guys I'd probably be in prison
they helped create a distraction :thumbsup:

[dishuser]

so after jumping thru hoops for almost 3 months now I finally have meds being delivered to me on monday
the cost is almost 100k to live a little longer
what a great country I live in...lol

[dishuser]

and ford ain't no dummy
I have to take these meds for a minimum of 6 months
but they'll only deliver every 30 days
just in case...lol

[dishuser]

https://i.imgur.com/DDdn3gw.jpg$22k for 28 days x 8 refills :rolleyes:

[The Noof]

[dishuser]

went to my doc yesterday to get a new inhaler
he owns his own walkin with a pharmacy
ended up leaving an hour later with 3 different inhalers,paperwork for another ct scan on lungs and throat and a follow up with my specialist
at least I'm down to 3 doctors now...lol
now to just remember when to use the new inhalers every day
he exempts me from making appointments because I always forget so I just go whenever I want
not sure how he expects me to remember my inhalers and other meds every day :noidea:

[auggie]

My Daughter calls it "Some-Timers" sneaking in.........lol lol

[dishuser]

Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
Don't know how much time has passed
All I know is that it feels like forever
When no one ever tells you that forever feels like home
Sitting all alone inside your head

[dishuser]

so this morning I went to walker centre for pulminary tests
about half way through I woke up to them resuscitating me
the girls said I turned purple for about a minute
so I said at least I didn't look like a smurf...lol
they had to send in another tech cause she was freaked out
the other girl was a student and she stayed...lol

[auggie]

Hey you got to stick around that's a Order From the SatFix Crew.......lol

[dishuser]

I had to stop using my inhalers on sunday night to get true test results
now they know....lol
as soon as I got home I used 2 of my inhalers and took a 3 hour nap
who knew breathing could wear you down so fast? :noidea:

[The Noof]

There's only 1 thing worse than getting old...

[dishuser]

There's only 1 thing worse than getting old...

I'll never do that again...lol

[dishuser]

part 2 at 6am for a full scan
I think they're trying to speed up the process and save money by annoying me...lol

[dishuser]

so ct scan gave mixed news
spot on throat has only grown 2mm
spot on lung I can't remember because I went deaf when I started to hear the result :rolleyes:

[dishuser]

FFS
I wish these guys would communicate more with my doc
now I have to go back to the hospital for another scan since they only scanned my lungs and throat last time
if they had well my doc always has a scan done from head to toe
I don`t have their priveledge of free parking and it ain`t cheap :splat:

Can you get handicap parking? Or is there no free parking for that?

[runamok]

We went from one of the best to mediocre!!!

I went back to Medicare. No copay and Medicare pays 80% of claims

[dishuser]

Can you get handicap parking? Or is there no free parking for that?

the longest you can park for free is 15 minutes
Parking RatesPer 1 hr: $3.00
Per 1½ hrs: $6.00
Up to 12 hrs (no in/out privileges): $8.00
Daily pass (in/out privileges): $16.00
Per month (31 consecutive days): $80.00
Staff - $27.00 bi-weekly

so if you have to go to emergency it will cost $8 to $16

Can you go to your dmv and apply for handicap parking? Here the DMV gives you a form your doctor fills out and then DMV issues dash cards

but which doctor do I ask? :laughat:
hey
that's what I need...a witch doctor :thumbsup:

[auggie]

If you are a returning Patient (long term) "Most" Hospitals etc. will issue a Parking Pass, My dad got one when he was
dealing with Bladder Cancer at our Local Hospital for treatment.

[dishuser]

HPASS PERMIT:
5-days: $40.00
10-days: $70.00
30-days: $180.00

What is HPASS? HPASS is a preloaded multi-day card for 5, 10 or 30 days that gives patients and frequent visitors a discounted parking rate. The HPASS™ card allows for “in-and-out” privileges within a 24-hour time period.
