In high school I used to spend the night with a Philipino friend, and it is

their tradition to eat last night's supper for breakfast the next day. The

food was always so delicious and it tasted just as good or better the next

morning. (They cooked pretty fancy dishes the nights I stayed over--I have

no idea if they cook like that all the time.)

,

Your story sounded so familiar to me that I was compelled to write. First of all, welcome...and you came to the right place. Expect from these wonderful people; warmth, comfort, understanding, and humor.

My heart problems began after the birth of my daughter (second child), went into cardiac arrest 10 minutes after she was born. When she was not quite six months old, I had open heart surgery. I remember the agony of not being able to hold her because of the weight restriction following surgery. It was later, after 1 pacing study, and 5 ablations that it was decided that I needed an ICD. The attempted ablations were unsucessful..I had VT also. I also needed a pacemaker because of bradycardia (too slow irregular heartbeats).

i, like you, was young and a mother...scared out of my wits!! Way too much anxiety and fear was making me lose the precious moments of my daughters infancy. So, I focused on the good stuff, took some courses on stress-management and found some method of coping. Believe me, its not easy...and none of us here will try to tell you any different. Its a day to day effort..

The great news? You will recieve the support you need here from people who really know what it is like to live (not just exist) with an ICD. You are not alone. One day you will be writing words of welcome and encouragement to newcomers, telling them how you adjusted and are flourishing. Until then, enjoy each day and count your blessings..

Always,

"Words are the voice of the heart"

Hi

Welcome to our little group. Lurking is fine but feel free to always

chime in. We don't always talk about soaps & such as you can probably

tell from all of our past postings. We're very informal here....help

each other out when we can, support each other and lean on each other's

shoulders many times whether it's business or personal stuff. So don't

be afraid to " vent " about something if need be. You'll probably find

that most of us have " been there, done that " , too.

Re: Dyeing Herbs

Hi, everyone. I've been a lurker here for a while (joined right before

last year's gathering but didn't say much 'cause I wasn't able to come,

and after that, I had family health issues to deal with back in the

midwest, yada yada yada). But I wanted to chime in here.

I've used alkanet root to color soap. It can be anywhere from blue to

a purple to a reddish-pink, I think, depending on the pH of the soap

mixture. Mine turned a lovely pastel purple color. I steeped the root

powder in some reserved olive oil and strained it out before heating

the oils. I've also used carrot, but I also added some powdered

cinnamon, so my soaps came out kind of orangey-brown. That's what I

use for a gardener's soap, great for scrubbing off the dirt. Haven't

used any other herb or plant material that dyed the soap.

Quick intro: I live in Macedon, just over the Monroe/Wayne Co. border.

I have been soaping for at least four years (probably more, just can't

remember), only CP, 'cause the first and only time I tried

melt-and-pour it was a terrible failure for me. I also have made fizzy

bombs and bath salts, and some deodorant for me. Some day I'd like to

try my hand at lotions for me without preservatives, as I'm not too

thrilled with the products I've bought in the stores. I have one son

who just turned 7, and we homeschool. My hubby works at RIT teaching

physics. I have only sold at two really small craft shows, a while

back, but I never seem to have the energy to put into marketing, so we

have a lot of soap around the house...!

Thanks for the welcome I am enjoying the group very much. I think

the vacuum is created from the lack of air following the pah. I have

noticed that if I suck up any air or don't get everything out on the

pah I don't get the vacuum effect. Feel free to correct me if I am

wrong ladies I am still only 4 days old at this.

I feel the same way. My goal weight is 150 pounds but when (not

if---thinking positively here!) I get below 200 I'll be estatic. I

haven't been less than 200 pounds since before I was pregnant with my

fourth child, and he's 19 1/2 years old.

Hi ,

Actually I probably should have him ask his oncologist these questions I'll

write them down. He usually don't ask to many questions, thats why I'm trying to

keep up with what he needs to ask. Especially last week when he had high calcium

count. So far his treatment has been Leukeran and now they put him on predisone

for a month. He has swollen lymph nodes, and they want to do a biopsy this week.

I'll let you know what results are from the test. So far since he's been aware

of CLL he hasn't had to many things going on other than night sweats, fatigue,

and swollen lymph nodes. WBC are up and down with treatment. Thank you Donna

Welcome, Donna

Hard to say about your husband.......

Do you live anywhere near where you could get an expert opinion? In some

strange cases a second opinion can be invaluable.

The high WBC by itself does not necessarily represent a danger. Important to

know his lymphocyte percentage to compare with the white count.....

Does he have swollen lymph nodes? Another thing to wonder about.......

Let us know more, there are lots of people here with good theoretical

knowledge......

Hi Ya and Thank You for joining Us. So sorry to hear of all the added emotional and stressful problems you are having and without the support and understanding of your family members. Many of us share the same HCV symptoms, emotional and medical problems and the added burden of financial and insurance problems. HCV for many people is a very chronic progressive and debilitating illness sometimes fatal without a sure cure or treatment options that work

successfully and long term for the majority of us. We also have many success stories to also share with you. Do you know your geno type or had a biopsy ??? Honey, I hope and pray natural remedies work for you and you have an easy time of it. Here we deal with our everyday HCV problems and issues in an open and honest discussion type format among friends. We deal with reality with truth and honesty about our HCV and lives and how it also effects all that know and love us. All The Best To You.

Yes, welcome Dr. McLaughlin,

I've enclosed an example of what McLagan means when he says, "It is not about who is right or wrong, but rather, respecting each other and allowing others to express their opinions and thoughts in a professional manner. We shouldn't judge one another nor should we put each other down. We should be open to different thoughts, techniques and treatment."

McLagan wrote: "I guess some are a bit slower than others; it's ok , soon you will get it. Please re-read slowly, then re-read again. Dr. Medlin understood and he seems like a smart guy, unfortunately you don't understand. I don't see how that is my problem. If you have any more intelligent questions, please ask again, but after you read my post one more time, even slower."

Shad McLagan D.C.

So be careful, that knife-like pain you feel in your back may not be a thoracic adjustment!

(But, yes, welcome to the forum and enjoy!) (:-)

M. s, D.C.

Welcome

Welcome Arah, it is good to see you on here. I think you would be a great moderator to this group. I am glad to see you are open and willing to discuss various topics with an open mind. It is not about who is right or wrong, but rather, respecting each other and allowing others to express their opinions and thoughts in a professional manner. We shouldn't judge one another nor should we put each other down. We should be open to different thoughts, techniques and treatment. We should be here to help one another and work together for the good of the patient.Shad McLagan D.C.

Thanks all of you for your welcome to the forum. My last email was, yes, to welcome all forms of thought and philosophies as I love to hear all ideas--- good or bad. My other intention was to subtly say " let's stop arguing" as it seems wasteful and so much more time can be spent towards lifting up our profession and each other.

Yours in health and life, :)

Arah McLaughlin, D.C.

welcome

Welcome

I am bursting with joy at all the new members we've been getting. I hope it means more people want education and support and not that more people are getting this nasty virus. Welcome to our crazy little family. I'm aka De. I'm 49, single mom in GA (almost empty nest), genotype 1, stage 1/grade 2, dx Halloween 2003, tx all thru 2004 and clear since week 12. I credit this group for my current level of sanity. It would have been WAY worse without them.

Jump on in and introduce yourself as soon as you feel comfortable. You can learn a lot by reading, but we can't know how to support you if we don't know you.

Do not ask God to guide your footsteps if you are not willing to move your feet!
