Guest guest Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Lottie have they thought of a Power Pic line for your grumpy veins..I use to have a port in my chest, but the stay in Hospital they took it out thinking it was causing my high fevers (it was not) now I have one of them new fangled power picks, it has two lines so they can hook up blood and other things except platelets, that has to be hooked up alone. It is not theold pick lines but this one has no stitch in it.... if you do not have one ask your doc. say hi to jimmy SkipD dx'ed when dead sea was just sick  ________________________________ From: Lottie Duthu <lotajam@...> CML < > Sent: Sat, March 13, 2010 5:02:19 PM Subject: [ ] Old saying  Dear Anita, It has been a long time since I heard the phrase, " right smack dab in the middle " . I wonder where that originated. Any of our librarians know? LOL Bobby is right, These are trials to find a cure. We are just around the corner for a cure, but and the Arganauts have not arrived with the the Golden Fleece just yet. Meanwhile, as Bobby said, we have options and lucky to have better than what was available 30 years ago, just ask Skip. I was on the ATRA trial with Hydrea for 4 years. This stuff is still being used to bring down the wbc, but my blood vessels collapsed like dead flies when I was on it, they just " rolled over " . Now they have a hard time finding vessels they can use and as a result, one arm is dry and the other has been overused and pokes out like a pebble. Meanwhile the bunsen burners were going full speed ahead, with the little elves working around the clock on the silver bullet, STI. That was all the buzz and was as important to us as the first man on the moon was to the rest of the world. We were waiting for our sustenance. Now our beloved Gleevec has siblings and we have found ways to circumvent many of the side effects by switching back and forth, if necessary. These are the good times, folks, revel in it.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 My Dear Sweet Lottie, You really should write a book like Sue said you have a such a way with words. LOL I Google the saying but all I found was a Nabisco cookie page giving coupons.. Yummy I too would love to see a cure, to live life without taking pills would be oh so wonderful. But until that happens I will just go on living a wonderful life taking pills. Hope everyone is having a super weekend. Know I sure am Anita ________________________________ From: Lottie Duthu <lotajam@...> CML < > Sent: Sat, March 13, 2010 3:02:19 PM Subject: [ ] Old saying Dear Anita, It has been a long time since I heard the phrase, " right smack dab in the middle " .

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 I can't tell you how long " smack dab in the middle " has been around. I do know my grandmother always said I was " samck dad in the middle " of everything in the 1940's and 50's here in middle America. Of course I was, I attempted to know everything anybody was doing thus being in the adults when they were working.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Remembering old things brings to mind St. 's Day. I want to wish everone a Happy St. 's Day. I always remember my grandfather planted his garden by the almanac and he always planted his potatoes on St. 's Day. When I was about 8 years old he wanted me to help him. It had been raining and cold, but he had to get his potatoes planted. He decided that my bare feet were the right size so he me use my bare feet to push the potato eye into the mud. Cold you bet and all he would do was laugh and tell me there was only a few more to plant. By the way, he had another bumper crop that year.
