Re: [QUAD-L] Bowel problems

2008-06-07 Thread John S.
You wouldn't catch me dead in a hospital that allowed nurses to have long 
fingernails. That is just typhoid Mary trying to get back into business.  All 
nurses were taught in school that fingernails are unsanitary and rather 
disgusting on a nurse. Beside being a place to grow germs, it inhibits their 
ability to use many medical devices.  Even nurses at veterinary hospitals can't 
have long nails. It is bad enough they can't wash their hands because they 
haven't the mental acuity to remember it, but with long nails they just CAN'T 
get their hands clean.

In many hospitals it has become policy not to do dig stim unless 
specifically ordered by your doctor.  Many lawsuits were filed when nurses 
with long fingernails caused rectal hemmoraging (sp?) and longer hospital 
stays.  I've asked nurses to cut their nails before allowing them to insert 
suppositories.

After 32 years of using bysocodal suppositories I believe they may be 
addictive. Just a guess.
Frankly, I think almost e/thing I do is an addiction. No AB person would do 
what we do to live.

I only use suppositories. Occasionally have an accident -- but is there any

Hello,
 
a paraplegic friend of mine was shot 5 years ago and has the standard 
neurogenic bowell. Well he had to move in with his mother and she refused to do 
digital stimulation...she would only insert suppossitories and wait. This 
resulted in many accidents and him wearing diapers daily. He couldnt even bend 
for fear of an accident. After awhile things became worse he got impacted over 
and overso the hosspital said they were really going to help him by 
giving him a colostomy bag.  Now hes still in the hospital with the bag and now 
had bedsores because they dont roll you either. They wont even let him back in 
his wheelchair. Saddens me

[QUAD-L] 40 Year Anniversary

2008-06-07 Thread nlgillen
Yippie!? I made it.? How mny other old timers are out there???

Yes, I celebrate.? Forty years ago they gave me a 5% chance of living - and 
here I am 40 years later. 

Now going for the next milestone ... 50 years!

I have a great life.? Yes, it has it's ups and downs - like spending 2 1/2 
months in a nursing home healing a pressure sore or gaining way too much weight 
and not being able to shed it, or living in cold, cold, cold?NY State (well not 
cold this week).?

My husband and I?celebrated 30 year together last year - even though he came 
out to me after 26 years of marriage ...? THAT was a surprise!!? He is still 
my best friend. 

I have my sons, my grandchildren, my miniature horses and my 3 Labs (17 puppies 
at the moment!!) and my friends.

Life is good.? I celebrate life!

Well, sorry to make?this short but sweet, so much has happened over the years I 
could go on  on . But, I have a horse show tomorrow so have to get to bed.

My parting words were written by someone else, but they fit so well: Life 
should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a 
well preserved body, But rather to slide in sideways, Chocolate in one hand, 
Strawberries in the other, a body worn out,
used up and? screaming as loudly as possible,'Woo Hoo, What a ride'!!!
