Guest guest Posted October 27, 2002 Report Share Posted October 27, 2002 ---Thanks , I remember them saying some thing about the vinegar when she was first diagnosed a yr ago. That does make sense not to boil. I also have had problems with moisture in the tube, I will try that next time.

Guest guest Posted October 27, 2002 Report Share Posted October 27, 2002 Margo, I wash them in hot(as hot as I can get it) soapy water and add white vinegar to the water also. Soak for a good 20 minutes and then rinse thoroughly in hot water and let air dry. I wash the towel they air dry on every few days.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2003 Report Share Posted February 10, 2003 Hello Sheila, Do these backaches, that you are talking about, happen everyday? Every morning I wake with a painful back that usually subsides after awhile of being awake. It's a spine pain not a muscular one. I often feel it when I wake and before I get out of bed. Then for the first 15 minutes after getting up it's still quite painful. I always tell my wife she's married to an 80 year old man. I have also noticed that I don't have the endurance that I used to have. I'm a dairy farmer so like you I do a lot of bending and lifting, carrying things etc. It seems that in no time and all the same pain returns. I'm not trying to blame Chiari, but like everything else I was able to do these same things much easier a couple of years ago. So I don't think it's much of a leap. Hope you get some good advice! in Wi SKOSKI@... wrote: > > Good morning, i wake up sometimes with the headaches but they are the > two to three minute headaches that take place several times a day.

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 A man left Chicago for a vacation in Key West. His wife was on a business trip and planned to fly down to meet him the next day. When the man arrived in Florida, he e-mailed his wife to let her know he had arrived, but mistyped her address. Instead, his message went to the inbox of a woman whose husband had just passed away. When the grieving widow opened her e-mail, she read the message, screamed and passed out cold. The woman's daughter rushed into the room and found this note on the computer screen. "My darling wife: Just checked in. Everything is prepared for your arrival tomorrow. Looking forward to being with you again. Your loving husband. P.S. Sure is hot down here!" Walt on Whidbey IPF,Nsip.Uip. 06 Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow.†Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
