Ok, no leaves or flowers. What does "grade the root" mean?

They are both still in there, it's just that the left one kinda slid out a little which renders the whole unit useless. I figure that if it can slip out a little while it's taped to my back, then they should both come out pretty easy.

Back update. Trial was unsuccessful. Next, and probably the last hope, is an internally implanted Morphine drip directly into the spine where the pain is. I go Wednesday where they will do a trial of that by injecting morphine into the area and then observe me for a few hours. If it takes the pain away, then they'll put the implant in. I'm so disappointed this trial didn't go well the way I had hoped and it's scary to know that I may only have one option left.

Ring update...still no rings.

The usual. Still really putting a lot of thought into this other treatment. I know it doesn't do any good to worry about it cuz I won't even know if it's a possibility til Wednesday.

Well, I only stopped in for a couple minutes, now I have to find something to eat and get ready for bed. Have a good night sis! :-4

Hi sis. I'm getting a little anxious about this, I think more because I know it might not work than the actual procedure itself. I'm hoping I find something that works and maybe that will help, even just a little, with this stupid depression.

shelbell · Post by **shelbell** » Mon Dec 08, 2008 12:06 pm

I forgot some important stuff....we finally filed the claim for my rings. Hopefully it doesn't take long to process so I can go out and find some new ones. This is the perfect time to go find some new ones cuz there are so many huge sales going on!!

My big momma turtle(she's my sweetheart) laid some eggs yesterday...11 of them. I knew she had been acting weird the past few days, but since this is the first time she's laid eggs, I had no idea why she was so bizarre. Unfortunately she broke all of them and was eating the insides.....ewwwwwwe, gross!! :yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl

Do you not have to separate the eggs from her?

That's if the trial works. The trial is on Wednesday and he's just going to inject some morphine into my spinal cavity and then they'll observe me for a few hours....sounds boring. :yh_rotfl If that works then we'll schedule the surgery to put the actual unit into my back.

We had them insured for the value on a separate policy just for them, so I know I'll be able to find something nice.

We could have separated her from the eggs, but then they have to be put into a certain kind of soil in a box, kept at a certain temp, and dampand it takes anywhere from 60-120 days for them to hatch. We were not prepared for it at all, but I'm also not sure what we would have done with 11 baby turtles.

morphine is a very very strong pain medication, it's used in various treatments, one being in the pain of cancer, excuriating pain where one needs it via accidents, torn limbs etc.

you should google it's uses.....- makes you go into la la land, just what you need.
