Upper GI Hopes

[Totah Sam]

Hey guys, good news.

I just got back from the upper GI, and they found NO ULCER. YAHOO! Thanks guys for all your prayers and good thoughts. I know it helps. It always helps people to get well faster when they know people out there are rooting for them.

Yay! It's so nice to hear some good news.

Now let's work on getting you a card. Do you know how much a doctor's visit would cost? Maybe I can buy some art and you can use the money for the doctor? I'm sure there's something we can work out.

It was sure a cool job. That was in Spokane, Wa. I was assigned there through a technical services company. When I quit, so I could go back home and start getting well, they told me when I'm done come on back and they would hire me permanent. I plan to take them up on that. Well, that is if I don't get on with Boeing first. They are building a manufacturing plant for the B787 in So. Carolina. I wouldn't mind going there and teaching the new fokes. It seems like most places I go they want me to do that. I recon that's what happens when one has been doing it for 30 years.

I lived in Seattle, Auburn and Everett in years gone by, but I think I liked Spokane best.

No doubt your experience is GOLD right now. I worked w/ a guy who was a B-52 crew chief and he was a blast,totally fair and stern when needed. We were working on a Mercedes Diesel that ran on Jet-A,4cyl on a 172. The I/A we had "working" w/ us would not listen to his common knowledge(experience) but I did and I learned from that ole boy.The I/A was only 2 yrs older than me but a real hotshot,ha he made $16/hr,what a D.A. I take it they finally got all the bugs worked out of the Dreamliner,bout time. I worked for Evergreen(what a joke),they said they did maint on the 747 that flew pieces of the 787 fuselage around,I never saw it in 3mos. I did see a few 747s and DC-10s.Anyway hang in there Bud.If you made it 30yrs in Aviation I suspect you'll beat this Hep C sh*t and be teaching us young bucks again,we need guys like you.

When I read that, I was floored. You really mean it? Wow!

I have to wait to find out what the doctor says. She may wait till after I see my psychologist tomorrow. I am hoping to know when I start by early next week. You know how that goes though. Hope in one hand, poop in the other and see which one gets full faster.

I recon I should start calling around and find out how much it costs for a recommendation. I can't get one from the VA doctor. Someone told me they think it is $200. When I heard that, I was floored too. In a bad way.

If you would like to see some of my art, here is a link:

I haven't been trying to push my art. I kind of set that site up to see what would happen. Then I got disgusted because some of the artists there were really acting like butt holes. Disregard any prices you see there.

Stuff like this really makes me believe there are more good people on Earth than bad.

Well HOPE you get better Buddy!

It Cost About $150-$200 for a recommendation.
And your art is awsome!!!!
and Your a good artist!!!!

You really do have a talent pepurr. Of course I am partial to "Horse Play" but I really liked the others! I'm not very computer literate and I really don't have a lot of green backs about now and it pisses me off. I want to help you.

Sam,you rule Bud.

Anybody up north have any suggestions on how we can get these works seen and bought? I used to clean David Rothermel's yard but I am out of touch w/ him,he could give me an idea on what to do to get seen. Come on I know someone has an idea.

Hey pepurr go to this link Home or the number is 505-247-2535. they help with mm docs and they accept certain insurances.

[pepurr]

Thanks for the encouragement guys.

Thought I should tell yah that the works on my site that say 'sold', weren't really sold. I wanted to post them there, but had given them to friends and family. So in reality, I have never made a dime from any of my art.

I will contact Peace and see what they say. I have a good idea about that. I won't say what that idea is because I am feeling sick and grouchy this morning.

This is why they need to add HCV people who aren't on antiviral treatment yet. This morning I feel as if I am about to barf. Will the barf come? Heck no. Just the feeling. If I had a little smoke, I know that feeling would go away.

Just let me know how to get the money to you and I will be more than happy to buy some art to help out. By the way, I really love your art.

I am reluctant to give out my address on this forum. Call it paranoia, but I fear maybe some cops lurking on a site like this, then finding an address, coming over for an unexpected, and welcome visit.

There is a place by UNM in Albuquerque called Yusif's Cafe 216 Yale Blvd SE. It is a MMJ friendly place. I stopped in there last week cause I read they help with advise about getting a card. They are very nice people. Perhaps we could meet there. On Friday nights, I think, they said they have a hookah get together, where people who have a card come hang out and they provide the hookah, but not the meds. I look forward to doing that some day.

I am some what limited in travel cause I don't have a car. So I take the Railrunner and city busses. I live in Bernalillo. I bet luck would have it that you live all the way across the state.

If you have any ideas, I'm open. :hippy:

Actually I live between Farmington and Shiprock. I grew up on and around the Navajo nation. I have a really good friend in Cuba and I visit him all the time. It wouldn't be that big of a problem for me to get down there.

Pepurr my email addy is [email protected] - shoot me a line and we'll get this coordinated.
