Re: [QUAD-L] To Dave O and any other Chihuahua Owners
{{Thanks for those interesting stories and advice about the Dogs everyone !!
}} Dana, I remember you told me about your Yorkie and as we narrowed our small
dog picks -- It came down to Yorkie or Chihuahua. In answer to your
questions---Her name is Isabella ( bella for short ) And we are told she will
be under 6 pounds.

so glad that your daughter got you a puppy. Do you know how large it is
expected to be, according to its parents. I have always wondered what a
Chihuahua would be like as a pet, I have a female, 5 pound Yorkie that just
turned four years old and I really love her as a companion. Zoe likes to be on
my lap and she will lay on top of my phone and iPod. She loves it when I don't
have my Plexiglas on my lap and she can have it to herself. The person I have
gone to for my nails as a small Chihuahua about the same size as Zoe, that is
really cute that she sometimes has in her shop. She is afraid of my dog that
is on my lap, she hides under the tables but they don't bark at each other.
Keep us posted on your little daughter. What is her name?
Dana
Dave, so your little dog is not fixed yet. I have heard that little boys
like to do that. I only had little girls.
What is his name?
Dana
I really like my 2 guys. my 'stud' needs a fix which is in the
pipeline - when he gets started, nobody is safe. poor little guy runs around
humping thin air. the breed is very ferocious around strangers, my guys go
after pit bulls and great danes. also, anybody entering your house needs to be
careful and not turn their backs to them right away. mine sleep with me, they
love to cuddle at night thus making it very hard to roll over. All in all, I
would definitely recommend this breed - they are very attentive companions and
make great intruder alerts.

Re: [QUAD-L] To Dave O and any other Chihuahua Owners
I have had chihuahua's all my life and love them. Currently I have a male Chico. He is very loyal. He enjoys scaring the crap out of new mailmen, meter readers, and generally anyone who dares strays into my yard. Bark definitely worse than bite! Once a kid pushed my oldest son off the porch it wasn't a bad fall but ever since he harrasses all blond haired little boys. I got a kitten recently and to my amazement he litter box trained himself! Vet said most small dogs can do this. No more worrys about accidents especially on rainy days (like today) when he refuses to go out. I wish you many years of faithful companionship. Zeta /HTML

Re: [QUAD-L] Does anyone have hip problems
When I was sent for a ct scan after my spinal surgery, I was sent back for another one so they saw something with my hip but then wasnt sure what it was.

[QUAD-L] Fwd: A Rising Tide Won’t Lift a Leaky Boat
**Ideas to please picky eaters. Watch video on AOL Living. (http://living.aol.com/video/how-to-please-your-picky-eater/rachel-campos-duffy/ 2050827?NCID=aolcmp0030002598) ---BeginMessage--- Asclepios Your Weekly Medicare Consumer Advocacy Update A Rising Tide Won't Lift a Leaky Boat February 21, 2008, Volume 8, Issue 8 New research published in Health Affairs shows that the uptick in the U.S. economy in recent years failed to halt the growing number of uninsured in this country. From 2004 to 2006, even as household incomes rose and the proportion of people living in poverty declined slightly, the percentage of people with health coverage through their jobs continued to fall. The number of uninsured grew among low-, middle- and upper-income groups, although it grew fastest among the self-employed and workers in small firms, as well as among service industry workers whose jobs tend not to come with health benefits. More of us fall into those categories these days, and more of us--47 million at last count--do without health insurance. Now that the economic uptick seems to have tuckered out, we can expect things to get worse, faster. The Health Affairs study showed an even larger increase in the number of uninsured from 2000 to 2004, a period when incomes declined and more people slipped into poverty. Good times or bad, our system of obtaining health insurance through our employers is increasingly unable to deliver. A job with decent health benefits may some day be as rare as one that guarantees a pension. One bright spot in this gloomy picture is the consistently low number--1.5 percent in 2006--of adults over 65 who are uninsured. The reason of course is Medicare. Carpenters, fast food workers, barbers, Walmart greeters, florists, grocery baggers, drywall hangers, security guards and anyone else now working without health insurance becomes eligible for Medicare coverage when they hit 65. They will receive the same Medicare benefit as retired insurance executives and drug company lobbyists, whether the economy is up or down. If you work hard and pay your taxes, your right to Medicare coverage is guaranteed. Making quality, affordable health care a right for all of us should be both the guiding principle and the ultimate goal of health care reform. It does not explain how we're going to pay to cover everyone, but it tells us to find the money. It does not control the rising costs of health care, but it forces us to make those hard choices. More than anything, it makes clear that the current path is a dead end. Boosterism--faking optimism that the next cycle of economic growth will solve our problems--is wearing thin. The blind faith, in the face of all evidence to the contrary, that the market for private insurance will solve everything, rings hollow. Tinkering around the edges is no longer enough. It's time to stand up for our right to health care. * * * * Medical Record The number of uninsured Americans increased by 3.4 million between 2004 and 2006, despite improving economic conditions. In the first four years of the decade, during a period of economic recession, the number increased by 6.0 million. The dominant factor in both periods was a decline in employer-sponsored insurance coverage (The U.S. Economy And Changes In Health Insurance Coverage, 2000--2006 (http://www.kintera.org/TR.asp?a=hkIRK6PRLmKXKhLs=ruI5KfPNJcKYJaOWGm=lkIXIbNOJdI4G), Health Affairs, February 20, 2008). Both the percentage and the number of people without health insurance increased in 2006. The percentage without health insurance increased from 15.3 percent in 2005 to 15.8 percent in 2006, and the number of uninsured increased from 44.8 million to 47.0 million (Income, Poverty, and Health Insurance Coverage in the United States: 2006 (http://www.kintera.org/TR.asp?a=anJDLLMpFfJKIXKs=ruI5KfPNJcKYJaOWGm=lkIXIbNOJdI4G), U.S. Census Bureau, August 2007). Here's my philosophy--that government ought to trust private medicine; that we've got a fabulous health care system. Does it have issues? Sure, it's got issues. But when you compare it to other health care systems in the world, the United States has got a fabulous health care system (President Bush Discusses Health Care, Economic Growth and Free Trade at 2007 Grocery Manufacturers Association/Food Products Association Fall Conference (http://www.kintera.org/TR.asp?a=dqLJIUNBLiIRK7Js=ruI5KfPNJcKYJaOWGm=lkIXIbNOJdI4G), President George W.

Re: [QUAD-L] Does anyone have hip problems
Gina, How did they find out your hip was dislocated? Was it your doctor or a therapist who told you this? Did they explain how it became that way? I ask these questions, because I am paralyzed on the right side and have no use of that arm. Because of the paralysis, my arm has subluxation. I understand that my arm became this way, because the muscle hangs down from my shoulder. I was just curious about the dislocation of your hip.

Hey all, I had posted a while back that I have been feeling some grinding in my back and it had been hurting (I had rods put in from T7 down into my pelvis). My neurosurgeon in Baltimore was out of town at the time so I went to my pain specialist here locally that used to practice neurosurgery in Baltimore. I had x rays done and he seemed to think that a rod might have been moving where they had to remove a screw. I went to my neurosurgeon a couple of weeks ago and had another ct scan done. It happens that a screw popped through the vertebrae and is grining against the one above it. He said that its not real important to consider surgery now but if I go through with it, he is going to put more rods in. He's now talking from T4 now so I wont be able to bend my back pretty much at all. It's freaking me out because My level is T7 so I didn't have full sensation therefore pain from my last surgery and now I am having enough problems with my push wheelchair because of not being able to bend my back. I tip backwards going up ramps and curb cuts. I use the sides of my ramp to pull myself and go up curb cuts backwards. I really dont want to go to a power chair, although I know the better part of you use one, but I am freaked out about gaining weight and not being able to do excercises because I can barely keep my balance as is. I know that you all deal with this daily. Any ideas, tips, helplful words? All input is welcome. I am really considering going through with this surgery soon, considering what my second opinion says. The pain is pretty bad and the grinding feeling isn't very pleasant. I am finally healed from my sore, driving and some independence again. I was going to get back on the sub lists for teaching since I'm sooo broke and now I have to deal with these problems again. Anyone else suffering from another obstacle after getting over a previous one? I really feel like I am going backwards. I have been very blessed, dont get me wrong. I once was a quad, but starting to feel like I am going backwards after all I have been through. I am feeling really down here lately and would love some sort of words of encouragement. Sorry for the rambling. I've been holding it in the last few months. I feel like I am a burden when complaining, but I've had enough of this s...t. Stacy Looking for last minute shopping deals?

[QUAD-L] A first
Hey Guys This is a first, last night Andrea myself had to be put to bed by firefighters! It was snowing like crazy our CNA couldn't make it we called the on call Nurse which refused to come over. Then our owner of our Nursing Service wouldn't come over to put us in bed, I told her to call 311 see if fireman(rescue team) would help us out. We really didn't want to sit up in our chairs all night. Shortly they came over gave us our meds, emptied our catheter bags, give us water then used our hoyers to put us in bed. They were good guys!

Re: [QUAD-L] Big Brother
I watch TLC and the science channel a lot. Saw a couple episodes of The Amazing Race but then thought they picked people who were more likely to lose than win.

Re: [QUAD-L] Bed on Fire!
You've swallowed the red pill. Should have chose the blue one. FACT: Everything, including breathing the air, drinking the water, eatting fresh veggies, etc etc are now haz to your health. It's been that way since they put all that Plutonium into the atmosphere. FACT: Only 25% of smokers suffer ill effects FICTION: All doctors say quads should never smoke FACT: Tobacco is STILL considered a medicinal herb by some Native Americans. And you with the God complex... THEN YOU DESERVE TO DIE FACT: We all die, but some of us enjoy ourselves a little before hand. But I'm not wanting to live forever tnt FACT: You really do have some pent up anger issues.

Re: [QUAD-L] A first
I had to get pulled out of the tub a few years ago. At one time, I could get myself into the shower. I had really bad spasms that threw me in, my legs were bent and wedged in the tub, I spent the night because I forgot my phone to take with me. Long story short, my friend called them in the morning and they bailed me out. They asked my friend to cover me so I had my privacy. It's nice when they go above and beyond and are really great about it. Your story is much better than mine hehe. I'm sure you all had a good time while they did it. What a way to weather the storm. I just cant believe you couldn't get the help you count on to get in bed. My CNA is on her last strike. Not only has she not shown up a few times, but then doesn't call on top of it. I only use her a few times a week, but i count on her those certain days.

[QUAD-L] Spinal surgeries
B4 I would do any surgery on my spine I would get three opinions and ask about the percentage of failure rate and the possibility of improvement. Then I would investigate it all further then make an educated decision. I say this because you might have 40 yrs or more to live as a quad if you get too many surgeries too soon the later years could be a rough go. Surgery is a last resort when your paralyzed. Ron c7
Re: [QUAD-L] Bed on Fire!
Are are a meanie. lol. I think saying someone deserves to die is pretty harsh thing to say, no matter what the circumstance. There is a girl here that became quadraplegic because she was playing chicken in summer traffic at the beach. She isn't the friendliest person and seems that she is pretty miserable. I've said some some things about how she acted when I had the chance to meet her while sharing a bus ride, but I also didn't know her whole situation. This young girl was still in high school and both of her parents had been dead. She is a quad, on a vent and living with a grandmother because of what she did, but does she deserve it, I don't know. It's not my opinion that matters, but no matter what, she will be in a bad way her whole life because of what she's done.

Re: [QUAD-L] Spinal surgeries
I am going to a specialist hopefully soon. I have to go to my rehab doc first to get referred to him, because he won't take just anyone. I'm just in a ton of pain and want it to stop. I'm so afraid of losing the little bit of flexability, let alone being a quad again. I had 3 surgeries between the end of may and beginning of july. First he put a cage to replace a couple of vertebrae's mid T sec, then I ended up with 2 more cages and rods in t and l spine, then finally on my bday in beginning of july, he had to remove a screw too close to my aeorta. Waking up on a vent scares the crap out of me since I had gotten damage to my vocal cords the first time I was on one and had to get surgery to get my voice back. This all scares the hell out of me in general not even considering being put to sleep for a 9 plus hour surgery.
