And life goes on ....

I figured it was about time to check in, before the posse gets sent out.
Yes, I know some may not be happy to hear this, but I am still alive! LOL
Yes, I am still chronic. Yes, I still get hit 8 to 12 times a day. Yes, they still go from side to side, but still occur mostly on my “normal” left side.
The past three months have been a bit rough, but oh well, such is life. (NO, I am NOT looking for vibes or sympathy!) It really sucks when oxygen quits working, but, as usual, it has recently started back working about 60% of the time. I will take that! GLADLY!
This month has been rough, due to some sort of lower stomach problem. I have a HUGE list of what it ISN’T, but still no idea what it is. Fortunately, that has finally almost gone, completely. It really sucked, screaming and banging your head, and then once the hit was gone, curling up into the fetal position, in order to get some relief. The last test/procedure scheduled is the ole “rotor router” in early February. They want to go all the way into the small intestines, this time. What fun!
The Warden From Hell has basically moved out (then why is her room still full of her junk?) and moved in with her boyfriend. More grey hairs for dear ole dad! So I am back to having the house to myself again. It has distinct advantages.
My darling grandson is doing fantastic! He is now six months old, and is adorable. (a totally unbiased opinion there) I just wish he lived closer, so that I could spoil him more!
I am sorry to see those that are in pain, or going through some rough patches. I feel each and every one of your pains. I wish I could alleviate them for each and every one of you. I don’t feel up to posting much, but I try to keep track of my dear friends and family here.
OK, I have done my duty, and checked in. My love to all, and PLEASE, if you are NOT PF, Don’t dwell on the hits. Just concentrate, enjoy, and live your life, to the fullest, during the PF times! It is the only way I have been able to survive this hell we suffer from! You can too! If you ARE PF, AWESOME!!! I hope it lasts FOREVER!
Chuck

Oh my good grief, he's HOW BIG already?! 
I can't believe he's grown so fast and he is gorgeous Chuck, that's one extremely handsome little boy you have there 
Umm just reassure me would you? He's not following in Grandpa's footsteps is he? Pampers haven't started making thong diapers yet have they?!

Ewwwww! Sheesh KOP - thanks for NUFFINK!
Mind you, this could help out a fellow clusterhead in need with a problem he wanted some advice on discreetly..
Hey Paul - this could be the answer to that little problem you were confiding in me about!

Ya cross-dressing old hippy freak....about time you checked in with the clan!
Please note that Helen is now the self-appointed "old Broad"....which makes me the forever-spring chicken-and you must respect me! A LOT!
As for that baby, I am certain that beauty comes from Dana's side of the family, and the tie-dye came from you!  Let me know if he needs a nice Grammy!
Please give Steph my love, and you should be reminded, that girl has always landed on her feet. Lord knows, if I had to live with you and that obnoxious bird, I'd take a boyfriend as well........and move out!
I have a suggestion for your stomach. THROW OUT THE POT OF CHILI! Sheesh! You're much too old to eat crap like that, your cast-iron stomach has rusted out. Eat bland food, cream of wheat, brown rice and a few pureed meats.
It's really good to see ya posting. I miss our daily abuse sessions! ..wish I could help with the beast, but NOONE lives with this with more style and verve than you, Chuck.and that's the LAST compliment I'll give you!
Rock on, Chuck!

Chuck, if you check back in you might want to try "Dannons Activia" for unknown intestinal issues. It can't hurt unless of course you are allergic to yogurt and I have had good results with it.
I wish i could recommend something for the beast, but since I can't find anything for me I sure am not qualified to suggest anything to someone else.
Love your attitude and the pictures

Howdy Chuck,
Nice to meet you. Wow! You've been blessed with a beautiful grandson. Seems to me that your grandchild will be blessed if he's inherited your attitude. Keep your chin up!
with warm regards,

Can't believe your grandson has gotten that big already--he's a definite keeper.

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs
Wearing the tangerine suits
And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.
