VRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!! That's good he won isn't it???? Didn't you want him to win?!?! Enjoy with some wine for me!

I am DELIGHTED that he won. I really like Jenson Button. He had such a hard time the previous 2 years and at Christmas Honda pulled out of F1, so it looked like Jenson wouldn't get a drive at all this year, then Ross Brawn took the team over and WOW! The team hasn't even got any real sponsors. Richard Branson (Virgin) has given them some money, but they don't get nearly as much as the other teams.

Then let's raise a big TOAST TO JENSON BUTTON! Hip, hip, hooray! Hip, hip, hooray!

Ok, MC, excuse the curiosity of an Anatomy & Physiology teacher: Is there anything protecting the base of your brain now? Is the lower part of your cerebellum no longer protected by bone? Now, one of my soph students would ask, does your head wobble a bit without that first vertebra? I am so puzzled by the workings of all this, and can only imagine that I would want a neck brace on at all times! Also, can you detect improvement in the numbness of your legs and feet?

Champagne spraying everywhere.

It's Turkey in 2 weeks time and then it's Britain. Go Jenson!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, no, there is no bone there. They did a sort of "sling" with my dura tissue to hold my cerebellum in. My second vertebrae now takes over the workings of the first and supports my head. This is why I will have to really strengthen my neck and strap muscles in the coming months. As for the tingling, numbness and spasms: ALL GONE! He did say I could no longer play football or shouldn't do anything stupid like race cars since my brain is a bit "exposed" now.

Awesome on the improvement, MC! RATS! I thought you'd become a NASCAR driver :)))
HI to everyone.....

Hokay, really dumb question now: are you shorter? So great that the other symptoms are gone now, hopefully the headaches will disappear too!

Posted 2 years ago by paulajeanne #
HOORAY for all those awful symptoms being gone, MC!! Once the post-op pain is all gone, there's going to be no stopping you. But no football, you hear me young lady? :) I always laughed when doctors told me I couldn't do contact sports, I was like "Not a problem, me and sports, not a good combination".

Posted 2 years ago by Kilroy #
Thanks so funny you ask that! I was wondering the very same thing, am I shorter now? I am sure I am. I can't hold my head up straight yet so I am not ready to measure myself. I want to give myself all the credit I can!

Posted 2 years ago by mollycat71 #
You go, girl! Your gung ho attitude is marvelous to hear. And inspiring! Thanks, MC.

MC you amaze me!!!.....

Hi, Everyone!!!!! MC, I'm so sorry about the football part! *cancels call to Green Bay recruiting coaches*

It's a bit overcast today but I know the clouds are just teasing us and it won't really rain. But I'm going upstairs to do a bit of quilting today.

Hello my fellow TDKers. Just popping in to say hi and bye as wasn't around yesterday. Have moved up a notch on the new meds scale and am feeling distinctly spaced out. Good thing it's a long weekend here, need the extra time to get used to this! We watched the Grand Prix too, woo hoo for Jenson Button!

My local girl Danica didn't win the Indy 500. Glad my UK TDK'ers are happy with their winner today!

Sorry your driver didn't win MC. Better luck next time.

Right now there aren't any women drivers in F1. There was one a few years ago but women just don't seem to get a look in these days.

We are having a Memorial Day cookout a day early, although tomorrow we plan to grill steaks. Tonight - Texas barbecued chicken and homemade baked beans. After dinner we plan to watch The Patriot. (sorry, PM!!!)

MC, wish you were here :-(

WWM, you MUST serve the "Sweet and Crunchy Coleslaw" with that!... it would be sooooo perfect!... email me if you want the receipe!....

I've read the book several times.

ok, so we got back home, and Abby is now velcroe!.... she doesn't want to be more than literally 1 foot from me, 'cause she think's I'm leaving again! (we were only gone 3 days!).... as we speak,she's sitting on top of my desk where I'm typing, and is trying to get in my lap...!... cute little bugger!

There's no night shift tonight so I'm adding this thought to the day shift.

I wonder if we should ask KM to put a new heading up. He added the Book Club, maybe he could add something along the lines of "Poop" or "Orphaned Kittens". Lord knows, we spend 1/3 of our time discussing poop. Might as well have a heading for it.

:D

Posted 2 years ago by Kitten Whisperer #
Oh, oh, CBM, such a good idea. Two threads would be great, one for Kitten Poop Problems and one for Orphaned Kitten Care. (If we just put Kitten Poop, people whose kittens aren't pooping might not go there... lol.)

Posted 2 years ago by jcat #
I started a Night Shift thread. Poop is the perfect topic for the night shift. Come on over! lol
