  1. DNA from residual saliva suggests otherwise.
  2. The first fall was at a friends house, the second at a restaurant we frequent. The restaurant has a ramp for handicapped patrons, we've just never thought it necessary. These falls are a recent development.
  3. The teeth marks.
  4. Thank you. Thing is she doesn't have steps at home. It's those she encounters while away from home that cause the problems.
  5. The lady has new shoes.
  6. Oh, I thought that was because of the biting
  7. Mum fell again. This time on the top step going into a nearby restaurant for lunch. Not injured as badly but we spent 4 hours in the ER. No stitches this time, just glue and steri-strips as the cuts were smaller. However, the CT scans show an intact fracture in the orbital bone. These typically heal fine on their own but the on-call specialist requested a follow-up call tomorrow as a precaution since he was calling in from the university hospital in Charleston. Steps are becoming the bane of mum's wellbeing.
  8. So it was green wood burning just not in your immediate neighborhood.
  9. Many docs are now part of larger medical practices that set the policy on how much time is allotted per patient. Many doctors have little to no control over their scheduling. So rather than becoming frustrated with them over delays focus on the care and attention they pay to your needs when they treat you. Remember, if they end up spending more than the allotted time with you the next person in line waits a bit extra but that time spent with you mattered to the doc.
  10. Glimpses of life, a celebration, lovely.
  11. I'm finally going to begin a treatment that will hopefully correct the problem with my left eye. It involves eight infusions spaced 3 weeks apart. The first is scheduled for this coming Wednesday morning. I hope it works and that I don't encounter any of the more serious side effects like temporary(?) hearing loss or diabetes. Fingers crossed.
  12. Woohoo! It must be Spring. The sexy tractor is up and running. Have fun with the youngsters Grandpa.
  13. Why would you dress an Australian wild animal in ranger boots, tan shirt and short shorts? Isn't making it wrestle Drew enough of a traumatic experience? Unless of course you meant an Aussie Rugger player, that would be entirely different. They already comfortable in short shorts.
  14. How about astonishing, bewildering or an amazement?
  15. She's still sleeping and I'm not waking her before she is ready.
  16. 'Cause we love you.
  17. He relies on muscle memory and his latent primal instincts.
  18. Rome was a republic headed by a despot. Some of whom were made Emperor by the army they led.
  19. I heard they amended their report.
  20. Is that using the meteorological scale for snowfall or the tape by the door at 7eleven?
  21. It's colorful and lacks all that messy glitter.
  22. Hey, Canadians have southern regions ... what ... oh, uhm ... sorry, you meant the south. I misunderstood.
  23. That's not your "real" address, menial staff do not live on grounds. He he he, spell checker suggested "mental" instead of "menial", it must have noted I was responding to Drewdo.
