Ain't that the truth Jdawg, it's a dirty job but someone's got to do it. Since BJJ gots hisself elected to the position, he's our FDOL, and part of the job description is to make regular appearances in this here forum and spread some of that unique wisdom, humor, and love!

So Big Guy, try to stop falling over when you go out  tongue  and avoid any more of the (fortuitous) pain that makes you want to hide (a sentiment I totally understand, by the way).

Much love,

Hammer

Re: Where's Big Jeff Jones?

Hey y'all!  Got up, worked a little in the yard; reeeeeeal slow and I'm doing better lil by lil. 

Had an interesting conversation yesterday with Neurologist's office:

Me: These meds make me wannna kill myself...(not really peeps; just play along)
Them: You have to be seen in April...WHAT?  well you need to take 2nd pill (antidepressant) to counter-effect 1st pill!
How bout I just don't take the 1st pill?
No you have to take that, so you don't have a seizure...
Even though I never had a seizure?
You have to take it!  So we'll just prescribe the second one too.
If I have to take it why did you refuse the renewal when the pharmacy called you?
HUH?  We would never do that.  So what time on the 19th?  2:30PM OK?
No, I have a very important date to shine my shoes and have my nails done...
Well you have to be seen...
Why?  and BTW what were the results of the MRI I took last month?  The one you ordered?
HUH?  What MRI?

and then it got bad...  roll   Really!

I agree with Rick.  Sometimes I wonder how some of 'em graduated from high school and I won't even start about the absurdity of health care and some faceless pencil pushing twit deciding medical treatment.  Hang in there Jeff!  Get a second opinion and reclaim your health.

Re: Where's Big Jeff Jones?

BJJ...I'm in healthcare...It sounds like you have gotten yourself lost in the proverbial "Land of the Specialists"...My recommendation without knowing any of the details, is to latch onto a great primary care doc (family doc, general internal medicine) to become your advocate, your interpretor, your watch dog, etc...If you already have one, and the specialists aren't communicating with him/her, that is a problem...Your primary care doc needs to start kicking the specialists butt or changing his/her referal patterns to a more patient focused specialist...Your description is ridiculous and should not be tolerated...

It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life for me...and, I'm feelin good

Hi Cathy,
I know your offer was not made in jest.  I'd like to thank you (belatedly) for a similar offer of assistance to my family last month.  This forum is blessed by people like yourself and Jeff in our midst.

Re: Where's Big Jeff Jones?

It's ironic that there is no care in health care anymore & even though I seem a PIA as a patient, the ones I like I really like.  Why?  Because they talk to me.  I just got back from having an ESI (Epidural Steroidal Injection) and that guy I trust with my life.  My brain surgeon too.  me go lay down now...head on fire (in a good way) from Kenalog.

Thanks also JB georgia.

Re: Where's Big Jeff Jones?

I thought this was funny...  lol

I was shocked, confused, bewildered
As I entered Heaven's door,
Not by the beauty of it all,
Nor the lights or its decor.

But it was the folks in Heaven
Who made me sputter and gasp--
The thieves, the liars, the sinners,
The alcoholics and the trash.

There stood the kid from seventh grade
Who swiped my lunch money twice.
Next to him was my old neighbor
Who never said anything nice.

Joe, who I always thought
Was rotting away in hell,
Was sitting pretty on cloud nine,
Looking incredibly well.

I nudged Jesus, 'What's the deal?
I would love to hear Your take.
How'd all these sinners get up here?
God must've made a mistake.

'And why is everyone so quiet,
So somber - give me a clue.'
'Hush, child,' He said,
'they're all in shock.
No one thought they'd be seeing you.' JUDGE NOT!!

Re: Where's Big Jeff Jones?

Not to air too much, but Mrs. Jones gave me a little talking to Easter morning.  In not so many words, she said she didn't want to be independent.  She did NOT want to watch me suffer.  She realized when she woke up that she didn't know what I lived with.  (or what death looked like) but it was Easter morning, (she is a recovering Catholic after all) and if anyone could rise up out of that grave of pain and misery it could be me.

I was moved, yes, but that mountain came to me.

The universe speaks, I am listening.
