I told her she should go to the hospital. Cause it was already late today. I called the hospital there but nobody is allowed to give any kind of information on whether you should go or not. I am now in Cali and she is in Ohio. What do you think she should do. My dad is willing to give the enema, but I don't think it would be safe for him to do it. Being inexperienced and all. I know mineral oil helps too.

Yikes, that's a bad deal. I'm not sure what the answer is, hun. I'd agree with the recommendation to get her to the hospital or her doctor. Regular folks like your dad can give enemas, but if she's lost so much muscle tone that she's impacted, she's likely going to have a hard time holding the enema liquid in till someone can get her to a potty. In other words, there'll probably be a fairly significant mess. Nurses are accustomed to that and can prepare for or prevent that situation better than dads can. Mineral oil can indeed help, and they also sell glycerin suppositories at the drug store that can help, too, and are easier to administer at home than an enema. My sister had that same problem toward the end of her cancer, and my grandmother who had Parkinson's had it, too. Hope they can find a solution!

Yep, exactly, and also loss of muscle tone in the bowel from the ALS disease itself, which slows down peristalsis.

my top 3 go
coors light
old german (pittsburgh beer, 9.50 a case)
dos equis

You went up a rung in my book. Miller Light is horrid. I am sure you hate the sour aftertaste like i do. Coors light does it up right, nice and smooth and drink that bitch down. Of course I am sure you have learned that dos equis is a much better mexican beer than corona, though corona is good, its not dos equis.

Lots of people think "Omg, youre such a pussy! You drink that coors light, its like Water! I drink <insert non-light beer>. Its got more alcohol."

Then I say:
"Alright bitch, grab a coors light, we are gonna drink 18 of these silver bullets tonight"

Response is usually "18?!"

Real drinkers don't fuck around.

Even though you may not like the taste of Miller...It does have more of a 'volume' than Coors or Bud Lights. I think it's more of an aquired taste (I use to hate it). It's not a bad thing that those two seem like half water...go easily down the tubes. I'm not going to say anymore than that because I like Coors as well...been drinking it lately. And there's only 0.8% difference in most light to heavy beers. So I'm with you on your conversation lol. Ice's have more...but what's the point...nasty.

except for ice house! as far as the 'i-want-to-get-fucked-up-fast-and-cheep' drinking goes. you can't beat ice house, keystone ice, railbenders, and the mother and father of shitty strong beer, hurricane and steel reserve both are like 8%


i was at a bare in erie one time with my buds, i had been drinking budweiser all night ( i was on a budweiser kick for years) anyways, we were getting ready to leave and someone handed me a miller lite draft, well i chugged the fucker and the next thing you know my mouth is watering and i know that its coming back up. this was kind of like a dance place/bar so there wasn't anywhere i could go to puke without being seen. so what did i do? ninja puked into two draft cups :D stupid miller make me puke! but i didnt spill any and no one noticed that i had puked. speaking of which that reminds me of another story

my buddy dans brother had come up with a few friends of his, we were going to a skynyrd concert in the morning. the Flyers had lost to the lightning in game seven of the conference finals, so needless to say i was singing the blues. anyways we were drinking one of the mamoth bottles of jager. well we finished the bottle and i passed out right were i was sitting. next morning i wake up thinkin what the hell happened. anyways i look on the coffee table in front of me and there is this red solo party cup filled to the brim , and i mean to the very top full of nasty black jager puke, yech. apparently i somehow managed to puke into this cup without spilling a drop anywhere, i was amazed.

Oh if I am offered a Miller light, I'll definately accept and enjoy it. I know what you mean about the aquired taste. Every year we have Chilifest, lots of music and chili and drunk college kids. It is sponsered by Miller Light so thats all you can buy. Many cases, baby. Ice chests on wheels. Its a big 3 day drunkfest. I remember it was like 3pm, during a concert...about 90 degrees...everyone is wet and soaked, we had plenty of beer. I was really toasted and I recall chugging an ice cold beer and thinking "God damn, Miller light is the best tasting beer ever".

But I won't buy it if I don't have to.
