Dirty Stay-out

So this little guy-and he is little,all 8 lbs. of him full grown- went outside with Kiska(very tall tabby), when my daughter and her friend went out for the night and didn't close the door shut. We found the door open about a half hour later. Kiska, when seeing us, ran into the house,as he never likes us to get mad at him/or offend us.

But this little guy, Puma, made it out to the woods in the back which houses all kinds of mountain critters, not to mention ticks and fleas, etc.. And of course, their Frontline was good til the 30th of April, as luck would have it. They were due for it.( Now, these are house kitties, but the oldest, Mr. Kippurrs, is so fast and always sneaks out to chomp on the grass in the front or side, so they get the Frontline.) Well, Puma went galavanting into the night.

Needless to say, we were pretty ticked about the door being left open. When I went towards Puma out back in the dark, he meowed as if he were hurt.Faker. He was telling me 'Nanny, nanny, booboo' or translation-I want to stay out and play, because I've never done this before, and I was an abandoned,wild, rescued kitty originally, and am excited by the outdoors.

We knew he'd be back when he got hungry. He's always hungry and steals the others' food constantly. So naughty. We knew the food would bring him in if he were still alive, or unhurt. When we shook the food, he was tempted, and his eyes kept shining in the dark, but he was feeling his oats.

So when he came in, he got his Frontline, and went to sleep in a bathroom for the night with his nighttime snack. When I checked him, he actually looked good, so I'm hoping that last month's protection carried over to repel the nasties out there. We do live in the country, and bugs are all over. And, of course, I got 3 tick bites right outside my front door.

Dirty stayout. Glad he's ok. Just hope the house and we will be also. Also hope he won't now make a habit of being a dirty little stay-out.

Just having some fun, and... I can see....

Just having some fun with a package to Alison, one of my sisters -in-law (??? or is it sister-in-laws???) Living with chronic Lyme, and healing from it, is like a roller coaster. But, about twice a year for the last , I don't know how many years, for a few hours, I can see clearly. Don't get me wrong. I'm not blind or anything, and some would say that my sight is way better than others. But, it's this feeling, that when I can see clearly behind my eyes, even the 6 panels in the doors look amazing to me. My head clears, I can focus, I feel positive, and feel like I can do anything. 

Dealing with physical symptoms, pardon my Francais, but it sucks. When your body keeps having to deal with so many things not being quite right, even if you can tolerate it, well, it takes your focus away. One can become distracted, while the mind focuses on what the body is constantly feeling, especially when the feelings change constantly like the DVD player ball on pause for too long. Bouncing all over the place. 

 The sinuses become affected a lot, wreaking havoc - it's like a constant war going on in the body. Anyone who deals with sinus infections/problems will know what this is like. 

Anywho, it feels so nice to see. Wow! What a treat.:)

I spoke to my cutie nephew on Skype

He lives abroad, 8 hours ahead of us, so I've never met him in person. But, today I met him via Skype. He's got his own keyboard and mouse and loves it. He just turned 2 on my birthday 2 weeks ago.

Got to talk with his Mom and brother, and his Dad, my brother. That was so nice.:)He was actually a bit shy on Skype:) So cute. Can't wait to meet him and hug him up ! :)

Doctor Says overall Stable...

This one's labeled 'Dad grunting'.tehe-one of the kids labeled... A few years back at some match.
Ken and his baby sister visiting from Hawaii, a couple of years ago. Yes, my hubby wears his work/gardening pants out. I know women who would never allow this from their hubbies. Hahaha...it was just on a trail up to a monument in the middle of nowhere.hahaha...Ah, what the heck. He's got fabulous legs.:)
He called me back a short while ago, and said with confidence that overall he is stable- which is what hubby wants to hear. Of course, I'm waiting for more healing.

His rib area is fine, so Ken is just feeling the deterioration of the rib area. But , even there there has been healing. Maybe he's just feeling some arthritis , which should be helped by the Protocel.

Doctor'll check out his neck next week, but there was only slight activity there, and in other crucial areas there was improvement.:)

Now I have to convince my hubby to be focusing on the complete recovery, instead of just stability. After all, with God, ALL things are possible.:)

Wrong Day-Arggh!!!

Ken with his Mom about 7-8 +- years ago in Hawaii for his sister's wedding.This is before the cancer.
So hubby got the date wrong, but I can't blame him. He had his scans on Monday, and it is typical to see the Dr. on Wednesday. But when we got there, the receptionist said that his appointment was next Wednesday! That was frustrating, and Ken didn't want to wait to hear, so we asked the Dr. to call.

 He called my cell, and I guess I didn't have reception, so I got a voicemail. He said if I had questions to call him tomorrow. But, basically that in general there wasn't much change. That some things looked a little bigger( Protocel killing off the cancer turning it into blobs that look bigger, but that are empty cells-that's what we're praying for, and that's what they have been looking like).

He also said, with a lilt in his voice, that actually some of the cancer looked better. So, it seems that once again, the scans reflect ambiguity, which looks to be in our favor. (Read Tania Harter Pierce's book,Outsmart your Cancer- Alternative Non-Toxic Treatments that Work).

So we'll see. We'll have a better feel for things tomorrow , and next week. There's been a nasty cold going on. My one daughter had it in the fall, and I was very concerned, but it wasn't the flu or encephalitis, which is what I was concerned with. She was burning the candle at both ends. 

And my other daughter had a nasty-similar- cold about a month-2 months ago. But she cleared up w/in the week. Then , my son had a head cold a couple of weeks ago, and then the gasoline got my immune system down, so that I finally joined the crew(which I usually never do-I stay pretty healthy despite the Lyme). It was just a nasty,(for a few days), head cold, that I used my homeopathics for, and am fine, with very residual effects at this point.

We usually don't get so sick around here. Although I do think that different people, or different families , go through good years, and bad /worse years.

 But, what I'm getting at is, that Ken might be fighting a low grade version of the nasty cold, and that it may have landed in his glands. The Protocel,(natural supplement that he's taking to hopefully get rid of the cancer), is a very powerful anti-oxidant, but nasty is nasty. Hopefully , it's just something simple that he's got to work out of him. He is battling lung cancer after all.

So that's the scoop.

There's a show that I'm thinking of doing in June. I've been having a hard time staying focused, what with the willy nilly overspending that our government seems to be doing. If it wasn't good under one president, why would it be better under another? When there is no money, you don't go out on the town. Very disillusioned by all sides in Washington these days. Anyway, it's been a little preoccupying. All this spending does nothing good for the confidence in the economy, and well, sales go  with the art selling business.

Concerned? A wee bit. Re-evaluating things, and feeling pretty gloomy about things. Throw the Swine Flu/N1H1-2009 flu in the mix, and no one closing our doors, like every other country in the world is doing, and well, yeah, I'm a bit worried. Who wouldn't be?

And our graduate is going to Hawaii in a few days for her graduation gift to herself, with her best friend- visiting her two aunts, and basking in the sunlight. But, Oh, those locked up planes and their recycled air.......
