Another on the Sick List, Friday Update
Update- Just received a text from Ex. More tests are needed, and she may have to stay the weekend for a Monday release.
Ex-PH2 has been feeling poorly of late, so she finally went to Lovell’s Women’s Health Center only to find her appointment had been mysteriously cancelled. Long story short, she wound up in the ER and after considerable testing, she has some issues that I’ll not mention out of consideration of her privacy. She’s staying overnight again, I presume for observation.
So another favorite TAH’er is in need of thoughts and prayers, or however you roll. I’ll keep positive thoughts and hoist a glass, with a libation to whichever deity is in charge of these matters. Please keep her in your thoughts, too. I’ll update as events warrant.
No word from Wilted Willy yet. I asked for him to call after he felt rested enough and not to push it. Hope to hear from him by the weekend, if not before. But again, when he’s ready.

This is where we all sign up to cook for her based on her recipes, right?
That’s a bad idea in my case. People have asked me how I could possibly survive 18 years as a firefighter without being able to cook. My answer: wasn’t easy!
Yeah, a firefighter who can’t cook and doesn’t eat chili. How does that happen?
I like chili. It really doesn’t like me back.
The trick is to add 1/4 tsp. of homemade devil pepper to the pot of chili.
It “love you long time”. 🙂
I’ve tasted my own cooking and lived to tell about it. Hope Ex is back in good health and fine form very, very soon!
Hope you have a speedy recovery and get back to good health Ex. I got jumped on for telling my friends about your Penne/sausage recipe and they said that putting the penne into the water and sauce keeps the starch in.
Hang in there Ex, there’s butterfly’s and dragonfly’s and such that are still in need of being photographed.
Sending some thoughts and prayers your way Ex. Feel better!
Get back here soon Ex…..hospital Jell-O is not fit for human consumption…wishing you the best.
Praying for speedy recovery for Ex, Wilted Willy, and whomever else needs it.
Thoughts and prayers coming your way Ex, we need the head Lioness here. (smile)
Thinking of you, EX….
Ex-PH2, I am so very sorry this has happened to you. Please be assured you are in my prayers for a full and speedy recovery. God bless and God speed sweetheart.
Get well soon Ex-PH2! Prayers for your speedy fix. Most everything your nurses say to you will be intoned like a question, and they will call you ‘hon’ a lot. It will irritate you. They mean well.
Best wishes!
Our prayers are lifted up to all of our Sisters and Brothers that are suffering. May He that can Heal all afflictions place His Healing Hands upon them for a speedy recovery. AW1Ed has his hands full what with having to post up stuff, delete wingnut’s drivel, stack the deck, AND ride herd on a bunch of miscreants, feather merchants, and ne’er do wells. His Guardian Angel has moved into a corner, with a bottle of red stout, redoing her nails, shaking her head and wondering how she got stuck on this detail. You will be needed back on duty ASAP Mi’Lady.
And, yeah, btw…Them nurses asking when your birthday is doesn’t mean they gonna throw you a party or get you a gift.
AMEN! So mote it be.
I don’t have to stack the deck, Gun Bunny. Admins, like The House, never lose.
I do have it on good report my Guardian Angel has put in for a transfer. Something about the recruiter BS’ing her and wanting out of this chicken shit outfit and go to someplace more normal. Like Somalia.
“…stack the crab cakes.” Damn auto corrupt.
I understand Somalia is nice this time of year, or maybe Yemen. There is at least one less terrorist there now. Got to be better than what she’s dealing with now. Maybe you can get Mick to check with one of his favorite fly boy buddies to do the “flying to the danger zone.”
“…crab cakes.” Riiight 5/77. Mick and I have been on pretty good terms of late. He hasn’t said he hates me in a couple months now. One of us is slacking, and I’m afraid its on me this time. In my defense my plate is pretty full right now, as you kindly noticed, but I’m sure we’ll be back to our usual knuckles soon enough. After all, TGII will be out in June.
*grin*
Aaaaggghhh!!!
No TOP GUN, ya damn Squid!
Aye aye sir! Copy, no Top Gun.
It’s Top Gun II, ya Jarhead. Now be a good stick monkey and let us professionals in back do the work.
Thanks Mick- I feel so much better now!
*grin*
Amen.
Inasmuch as Ex tends to serve as the resident housemother for this misbegotten bunch of military frat rats, may I suggest that it would be fitting for us “boys” to send her some flowers?
Ed if twenty of us pony up twenty bucks each on the donation button for such purpose, can the funds be used by, um, someone in admin for such a personal specific cause?
Standing by…
Standing by………..(radio silence)………….
ROUMINT has her being released to home tomorrow, so while the gesture is thoughtful, she won’t be there the enjoy them.
That is perhaps the best gift of all. That and the kick she’ll get reading all the well wishes.
In that case, I’ll just wish the lady well and hope she’s back home soon, far away from the misery of being hospitalized, a misery ol’ Poe knows far too well.
Hey, if she’s allergic, I’m in! /s
Praying for complete healing for Ex and Wilted Willy. And for anyone else in the group in need.
Prayers out for my favorite distaff sailor….
Ex-PH2, please get well real soon…
Prayers out for you Ex-PH2, get well soon!
Prayers up Ex, May Sky-Six watch over you and grant you a speedy recovery!
Sorry Ex-PH2 I forgot something. They usually have a zip-locked “quiet kit.” Apparently it’s easy to forget, because they also forget to tell you about it. Most important items are ear plugs, and an eyeball cover. It takes the edge off the beepers, buzzers, bells, and overhead pages. Maybe you’ll want one. Get well.
PH2, get well soon!!!
A speedy recovery Ex! Take all the time you need but not a second more,…please Ma’am.
Wishing you a quick recovery, Ex. You are missed in these parts!
Thoughts and Prayers go out to you, Ex!
Best wishes with a speedy recovery to you. Get Well!
Gott sei mit dir, Ex-PH2.
Praying for you Ex-PH2.
Best wishes for a quick recovery Ex-PH2
Under the circumstances I’ll allow this comment to stand. Don’t get used to it.
Fair enough Special Ed!
I am amused by your lame powertripping 😘
Ex-PH2, Best wishes and a speedy recovery!
Ex, Get Well Soon and seeing as how tomorrow is your Birthday, “HAPPY BIRTHDAY”!!!!
Trust the Supply Daddy to know all the secrets. Graybeard you’re up. You are the baker in the family and I don’t think that Mrs GB would mind. I would like a…uh, I err err think that Ex would like that one you made for the Mrs. GB’s birthday you posted one Thursday. Or maybe an apple caramel. And as always, red velvet or key lime in a pinch.
Happy Birthday Queen of the Lionesses.
I’d need to get the APO address >grin<, but I'd be willing to bake Ex-PH2 a cake for her birthday!
And Mrs. GB is very understanding about me doing things like that.
Oops, almost forgot. From me to you:
8920-00-127-8243 Fruitcake, Fresh, One Pound, Shelf Life of 9 months, so don’t be saving it for Thanksgiving. (Smile)
“You in a whole heap a’ trouble now boy.”
Better you than me.
*grin*
Ex-PH2,
Hope ya feeingg better!
Ex, don’t let the bastards wear ya down!
Feel better soonly Ex!
Hope for a quick recovery!
Thinking of you, Ex.
Is there someone to look after her cats? And if not does a TAH member live close enough to do so? Not having to worry about her pets will help her focus on recovery.
I’m sure a trusted neighbor is looking after her critters, Lars. I mentioned her kit in a text to her, no reply. She should be home tomorrow. Descent of you to think of that.
Commissar:
Was thinking the same thing that you were reference her Fur-Babies.
That was very kind and thoughtful of you to remember her pets and you are right: knowing that someone is taking care of them will help Ex focus on her recovery.
Thank You.
AW1Ed, Thank You on updating us.
And Ex: Happy Birthday. You deserve the Best. Please Get Well: We Care.
If I were Claw I’d find another place to be for a couple days. Ex says she WILL get him for outing her birthday, and Hell hath no fury, well, you know.
*grin*
Thanks for mentioning it. It passed through my mind but didn’t have the grapes.
Ex, take care, get well soon and try to enjoy a rest ( as much rest as you can get in a hospital anyway). Prayers from this end are sent up for you.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery!
Prayers out for you Ex, and also for WW. Take care of yourselves, and get better fast.
Ex-PH2: get well soon!
We need you back in the fight!
Sure hope she recovers quickly. Wouldn’t be the same around here without her.
Ex riding sick call? I don’t believe it! LOL
Hope ya get what you need out of the clown show known as the IL VA hospitals.
Still making that cookie recipe for the grandkids you emailed me some years back EX, get well soon and know that I and the grandkids are fondly enjoying those cookies on a regular basis.
The screwy thing about this aging process is the lack of clear instructions in the manual about how many parts start to need a bit more maintenance than we were aware of 30 or 40 years back when it all worked more or less perfectly.
Looking forward to reading about your return to good health. Best wishes from all of us here in the PRoMass….
Late to the party. Reporting for second shift duty!
All ya’ll get over whatever it is y’all needs to get over and get all y’all selves back where ya ‘sposed ta be!! Enough with all this malingering already.
Got it?
Well all RIGHT.
Ex-PH2 get out of the hospital soon before that institutional food destroys your taste buds. Your own recipes prepared by your own hands will go a long way in restoring your body and soul. Get well and get back to posting on TAH soon!
Ex-PH2,
Here a little something that besides sending prayer and positive healing energy your way, is the best thing ever (IMHO)….If’n I could, I certainly would…
And I only send this version because I know the bunch of “animals” you have to deal with here at TAH.
At the very least, I hope this shows you how much you mean to all of us here an dhow much you are thought of. We love you girl. Get better and get back quick like, ya hear?!?!
XOXO
Get well soon Ex (and WW).
Get well, fer sure EX! This place isn’t quite the same without you.
Ex reports she’d bored out of her mind, and even misses Lars. She needs to get home ASAP!
Best wishes and prayers sent, Ex! Please let us know if there is anything we can do besides pestering!!
For Ex and WW we pray at the Temple at noon..
Get Well Soon…
Me and the rest of my crew are wishing you a speedy recovery that includes my psychotic
Blue heeler and grossly overweight rodent
My daughter has
BHWHAHAHAHA !!!!!!
On the road and/or out of comm until last night (and kinda beat then). So this is late.
Get well soonest, Ex. Thoughts & prayers for a complete recovery.
