Guest guest Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 Peggy, My understanding is that the books have to be purchased and downloaded to the device. I think I've read that some devices come with a number of books already downloaded but additional books have to be bought. I've also heard that libraries in some places have books available for temporary download. Not certain how that would work but that would be great. They are pretty expensive although I'm sure they will come down in price. Remember how much pc's cost 10 or 15 years ago? LOL I'm just too in love with real books for this to appeal to me. I love books, I love shopping for books, I love going to the library etc etc. Down the road if I'm less able to get out I can definitely see how this would be great. It's just something I'm not ready for now.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 Yes MB, They would take the paper experience out of it. I love the feel of a book in my hand too. There are a few diff. models so I am just investigating. I saw there is a site that you can download free. I haven't checked it out yet. Ken, Would I say I have a Mac--again--.. yep.. lol She uses a PDA and I have never thought to ask if it has microsoft.. DUH better find out huh.. I am sure I'll be talking to about them too.

Guest guest Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Peggy, My kids bought me one for my birthday. Like Beth I wasn't sure I wanted one because I love shopping for books, reading the back covers, adding to my collection, ect.,etc. I also thought it would be too little to get used to, but remember when we all thought it would be hard to adjust to a cell phone after our big home phones and now we can't live without them? I absolutely love my jetbook. It isn't like reading a computer it is like reading a real book. Mine came with 50 books already on it ( including dictionary, world fact book and the King Bible) and it can hold up to 2,000 books. I can bookmark a page, highlight sections, save quotes, change the fonts so that I don't have to use my reading glasses and it is so easy to take anywhere I go. I love going on my beach walks and being able to carry an entire library of books to read. Although I love the jetBook, I would recommend Amazon's Kindle. It is a little easier to download books and they let you preview books ( download the first two chapters) free. That way you never have to buy a book you don't like. What a great present, will love you for it! God bless you Peggy- R.

Guest guest Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 , I have to admit the concept is intriguing. I think I would need to actually attempt to read on one to understand that they are not like reading on a computer. I intensely dislike reading long articles and such on the computer. I end up printing things to read that are longer than a one or two page magazine article. I have heard good things about the Kindle and like the idea of being able to 'test ride' a book before buying it. Right now they are way out of my budget range so I'll just keep loading up on my trips to the library!!

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 , The one I use is an incentive spirometer and you can buy them as cheap as $5.00. I use it once a day and take 10 slow deep breaths, and rest about 30 seconds in between each breath. It seems to really help to keep my lung capacity up and keeps my lungs from getting filled with mucous. I think everyone should get one. Take care- R.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Peggy, It's sore but nothing that a couple of ibuprofen didn't take care of. I didn't sleep to well last night cause I'm used to sleeping on my right side and of course it wasn't comfortable to sleep on the incision and bandage on my right arm.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Bruce, Actually I planned it this way...LOL. The doctor wanted the skin biopsy from my right hand because that's where the rash is the worst so I decided I'd rather have both the biopsies done on the same side so that I'd have at least one arm that didn't hurt. (Not really knowing how uncomfortable I'd be). It's no big deal by tomorrow I'm just going to put a big bandaid on it and that should help. Worst case scenario is a couple of nights in the best recliner in the world! I'm told I should have the results by next Tuesday or Wednesday.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 MB And they make it sound like its nothing. Well, of course its nothing to them. They aren't being cut. And, certainly not life threatening. But when you start cutting and taking pieces of me, I know its going to hurt after. I've been told by the doctors that the skin and the muscle biopsies are " nothing " , " you'll barely know we did anything " and I didn't buy it for one second. > > > > Peggy, > > It's sore but nothing that a couple of ibuprofen didn't take care of. > I didn't sleep to well last night cause I'm used to sleeping on my right > side and of course it wasn't comfortable to sleep on the incision and > bandage on my right arm.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Bruce, Well for me the skin biopsy really was next to "nothing". Not even a suture, just a bandaid. Today it really doesn't hurt at all. The muscle biopsy is only slightly more uncomfortable. I took ibuprofen this morning around 10 and haven't needed it since. I may take some tonight before bed...there's nothing like trying to go to sleep to make mild discomfort unbearable. You can't go by me though, I think I have my paternal grandmothers tolerance for pain. She was up walking around like nothing had happened 12 hours after a radical mastectomy...freaked all the nurses out. I'm not like that but things don't phase me that probably should.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 MB I normally have an extremely high pain tolerance, at least partly in some way probably associated with my neuropathy which of course is of unknown causes. The exceptions I would make to that are having lung surgery and coming out of the anesthesia too early and the esophagus motility study when it takes 8 tries for them to get it all the way down. Now, I'll admit those two were beyond my threshold. > > > > > > Peggy, > > > It's sore but nothing that a couple of ibuprofen didn't take care > of. > > I didn't sleep to well last night cause I'm used to sleeping on my > right > > side and of course it wasn't comfortable to sleep on the incision and > > bandage on my right arm.

(52) Sarcoid/PF 3/2006 Carlsbad, California I had my first visit with the pulmonologist today. He is not convinced that I have pulmonary fibrosis. He wants to do a more comprehensive CT scan. He also wants to check for sleep apnea, possible reflux still occuring and possible autoimmune problems. He says he sincerely hopes my primary doctor's diagnosis is not valid as pulmonary fibrosis is truly awful. I should be excited but I am still exhausted and all the stuff I was before I went to him. It will be three weeks before I see him again. I have been sick in one way or another for so long. I am worn out with it. Anyway, I'll let you guys know the deal after further tests and the follow-up visit. Thanks for all your support. My primary doctor told me he was positive of the diagnosis. Onward and upward!

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 Well the beauty of this Board is that you get lots of 8 minutes worth of home grown wisdom & warmth & all for FREE! Look Mr/Ms/ Miss Dr. Shrink there's no such thing as 'MUSN'T' .. we all need to say whatever words FIT.. if we're squaring up then TERMINAL is a word we need to absorb... yes LIFE is Terminal.... I have never heard of ANYONE surviving LIFE... BUT when one is told that one has a health condition that CAN lead to death one has to blinkin' well ABSORB the news..... give a girl a BREAK! I always think of the time I was taught how to get a car out of a skid... the rule was to back off on the urge to slam on the brakes...... go WITH the car.. move into the motion of the skid & GENTLY apply the brakes to pull the car back out...... THAT's what a healthy dose of the 'Downers' does... that's what being negative is about... how can you come UP unless you've been DOWN! NOW of course it's horrid to get stuck in a DOWNER 'cos you miss out on too much FUN! How to climb back up is the Tricky bit...... YOU are in charge of that process....you must have a bag of tricks up your sleeve by this stage in your life..... Black Humour is one that works for me! So does a good Lindt Choccie but BUGGA I'm on an Addiction diet right now.... a good Lindt Choccie hasn't touched my lips for months.. writing about it helps.. I can SEE it, imagine it... almost taste it but I DARE not go near it! SERIOUSLY! I reckon it's possible to get addicted to being 'Down' too.....years ago I experienced that after my firt hubby died... I haven't always been hopelessly cheerful & scilly! I called myself the 'President of the Voluntarily Depressed Society' when people asked how I was with that LOOK that told you they didn't really want to know! Crikey what IS it about you lot this morn' I'm typing away like I'm on a dose of 'Quick Fingers'..... tried the chemical way out... hated the shakes... stopped taking 'em & eventually got so BORED with myself that I resigned my Presidential position & took up LIVING again! Now just remember you're not dead yet Blue Flyer... & besides you'll have plenty of time to be out of action when you are.. SO...... get on with LIVING while you are ALIVE! I mean it'd be pretty awful to sit watching the Clock & Calendar counting down the days m'dear! I want to hear some tales of FUN & FRIVOLITY! SOON! Hugs, in Oz (GIO & SGIO when I'm being Scilly!) IPF: Fibrotic NSIP/UIP????? Raynauds' May 2007 Ro52 May 2008 >> ! You have brought a smile and a warm heart to me every time I read your posts! I thank you for that! I went to see my shrink yesterday morning - I see him for 8 minutes every 3 months too- and I told him about having PF and that I was aware that it was a terminal illness and he said: what do you mean by Terminal? I started to laugh. Anyway, I told him I was going to National Jewish and I'm not so sure he knows what it is but he ended our session saying..."When you first came in you were so negative. I mean you mustn't say that you are going to die from an illness. You could get hit by a bus! They could come up with a treatment. It is just so dour to say you are going to die from something. We are all going to die!" And, I started to laugh again. Crazy world isn't it? Actually I haven't laughed so hard in a while. A psychiatrist preaching denial. Ahahahahahahahahhaha Well, I do hope they do come up with something helpful but there are no busses where I live.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 Oh , You make me laugh and want to go in the craft room and paint again! I am an oil painter and have sold-though I don't know that that makes you any more an artist! I stopped painting when my husband was murdered. All creativity just left me...but lately I have noticed my "eye" is back....You make me laugh at myself and that is what it is all ab out! I love black humor too! Just keep telling ne to get up and live! Because that is what I fully intend to do! I need to go out and work in my garden and go to my political functions and out to lunch with my friends. My aerobics classes begin again on Thursday and will show up to aerobics with my o2 tank on my back ready to jump around! I decided to stop swearing at my hose in the house and my back pack but to be grateful they have such a thing as oxygen! Count my blessings! I am alive and well today and that is all that matters!
