Guest guest Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 All I know is that I picked a bad two months ago to quit smoking. Anyone got some airplane glue?

Maybe not as long, but I am with you. I just went in for tooth implant surgery this morning. I am thinking about doing VATS in the next year (still haven't made up my mind) and want to get this done and be well healed for future decisions. I have chosen to do liquid diet to avoid complications for the next week. Lots of water, slim fast or ensure and staying away from everything else!! I also have pain medication... will see if I need it. I have a pretty high tolerance of pain, but when you need something to help, you take it. I have never been much of a soda drinker so I guess I wouldn't miss Dr. Pepper. We will count the weeks with you to the good old solid food. Keep us posted...

That's how long until I get to eat solid food and NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODr. Pepper for 8 weeks. Maybe theirs Dr. Pepper in Heaven. I sure hope so. I am not in much pain but then liquid morphine kicks pain's butt. I just have to be careful not to do too much just because I can't feel the horrible pain.> > Sunny 51 PF '09, Lupus/Sjogrens/Arthritis/Asthma '04, GERD '04, Barrett's Disease '08, Hyperthyroid '08, CAN '09, Hiatal Hernia '09, Idaho> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Thanks Marcia! Maybe that will shut up them up. I get tired of those I love (no ) who take it so lightly. I don't want them shocked and devastated when the time comes.

He said to explain that the difference is that someone with a terminal illness, looks over their shoulder and can see the bus bearing down on him. Maybe that will give them a slightly different perspective. Marcia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
