no worries lass lost a brother to the drink last summer he was only 50 still dealing with that

Hi everyone

I wanted to say a special hi to Della, I have not experienced losing a family member in such a way. I imagine the heartache must be tremendous, and with an ill son at the same time, your worries sound very big. I am so sorry you are going through all this and that your paranoia is coming out because of it. Hang on in there, you have a lot of people who care about you, that must be because you are a lovely person to know!

Crazyhorse, that sucks to wake up in a hospital bed like that, and your brother had the same problem, I guess it runs in your family then. Good luck with the tests and keep smiling, that may trite, but sometimes I don't really know what to say, but smiles seem like a good place to start.

Hi Vixen, seems like you started a good place to talk when you started this thread.

I simply can't imagine..

Aww thanks Kaz

i'm havin a larf laughter is the he best medicine

Very true....

Gotta dash and throw the G at the bus and run up cardiac hill to work.... back laters sometime ~waves~

have a goodun lass

If laughter is the best medicine then can we use someone really unfunny as a weapon of war? Suggestions?

Keep laughing crazyhorse, thats gotta help.

Do you want to talk more about your drinking habits, I am happy to listen. Its not something I understand in the same way, sometimes I need a drink, but one beer or glass or wine is all I need. I drank myself into oblivion as a student, but didn't we all?

I like the way booze makes me feel, but again as I do not need much of it, it never becomes a problem for me. I have eaten choc until I was feeling sick though, so I kinda understand a little about compulsions that make you ill but you continue them anyway.

Have a

unfunny weapons+george dubya.....ive been there with chocolate...but i reckon tobbacco is the we worst,,,could use a decent joint fer a change

Marvin, you've got a point there. After all, they always send out Jim Davidson to entertain the troops...

I read that they also sent out some of the actors from Stargate to entertain troops! Weird!

monty python defeated the entire german army with one joke

From Stargate, who would've thought!

Hey all how is everyone?

not bad how was work lass?

Busy, busy..charging up and down the wards, running patients over and delivering stuff to all the wrong areas....

Nah...not really, just busy, I exaggerate as usual ...I'm very courteous and happy smiley and sedately move in a quiet frenzy...

I have to pop off again inna mo and get dinner on the go, I thought hubbie was working late again tonite, but he just e-mailed so I'd better go throw some chicken in t'oven!

good onye make sure it's hot

Thank you, Kaz. What I meant about paranoia, is about illness, I have always worried about either of my sons being ill... (I couldn't care less about my own health, especially now.)Thanks for your support.

Jim Carrey, or Adam Sandler would be favourite...

Hi Della, I never answered your question about whether I believe in reincarnation. Before I had my breakdown, I believed in reincarnation very strongly. After my breakdown, I was not so sure, I doubted every thing in my life. Gradually, I grew back into a belief that there is an afterlife, and that it is some sort of combination of heaven and reincarnation. I think if people reincarnate, it is because they want to - to experience the thrill of being alive, and to help the world grow. I think anyone who would rather stay in heaven can, and that we can always recognize our loved ones on the other side. I think people in heaven can appear as any of there incarnations - that just makes sense to me. I'm a Universalist - I don't believe in hell. I believe what I believe mainly because of 1)dreams I have had 2)precognitive events I've experienced 3)books I've read, like Life After Life, 4)psychics I have seen or known and 5)just my own gut feelings.

PS Maybe we should start up a thread just about reincarnation!
