That would be quite a feat Teddy, putting the parts of two people together.

Lets hope you both have a good conclusion to your problems.

Marval and Teddy, thanks so much for your concern. When is your next appt. scheduled for Teddy? And yes, I do wish they could do what you describe--oh well.

Thanks Margaret. Steve, awaiting appointment. With the flu outbreak over here it could well be a little while

I'm sorry to hear that the UK is having a flu outbreak. Please take care of yourself. Have you gotten your flu shot yet?

No Steve, the problem is I suffer from Guillain Barrie syndrome and there were a lot of deaths of sufferers in America following the flu jabs last year. I would rather take my chances.

Yes, I have had my flu jab, and my swine flu jab. I am lucky because my immune system is not the best, my doctor offers them to me.

Hi Teddy--I don't know what that syndrome you cited is but it sure doesn't sound too nice. Just take care of yourself and be well.

You can Google it Steve. Its a self induced syndrome which causes paralysis. Can be fatal. One of natures little jokes. They taught me to walk again, but it has got worse since I have got older

I'm truly saddened to hear this. It sounds serious ... My thoughts are with you, Teddy. Please do take care of yourself.

Thank you guys. It is one of those things you learn to live with. i do not let it stop me doing anything. I just do it slower and for not so long. And not as often. But some of that could be age related. Nil desperandum illigitimo carborumdum. :devil:

Teddy, it's all Greek to me :lol: but whatever you wrote, I just hope that you continue to feel better. I took Latin in high-school about a million years ago and remember really enjoying it. However, very little of my retention of it remains with me at the present, I am sorry to say.:cry:

Steve. Dog Latin - roughly translates as - Don't let the b$&*!*&s grind you down.

teddy :D

It reminds me of the Father Ted series. The favourite expression was feckin. Sounds rude but actually meaningless.

In modern Irish and other parts of the world it does mean exactly what its meant to mean:eek:
