Hi Michael,

 RH> They've really been putting you thru the wringer this time around.
 RH> Actually, more accurately, your body has been giving you a bad time
 RH> and the medical treatment to help hasn't been very enjoyable.

 ML> All of the above. I wish they had coordinated the various
 ML> venipunctures so that they could draw multiple tubes from
 ML> each stick instead of having each doc go I want it now, so
 ML> fresh bloodsuck every time, which squandered my veins in

That would have been expecting too much co-ordination--not possible with
all the doctors that you had tending to you. (G)


 ML> short order. I noted to someone that I'd had over 100 sticks,
 ML> and they said, that includes blood sugars, right, and I said,
 ML> no, that would be 50 more.

I just do one of those a day, in the morning. Today's reading was 72.


 RH> They could go either way but since we don't go there to try the stuff
 RH> out, it's not that big a deal. OTOH, I read about people that come
 RH> every year just for the food, and especially to try out the latest
 RH> fried "goody".

 ML> It is a big deal, after all, for some of these folks.

Nothing more exciting in their lives?


 ML> maybe something like crabgrass or newspaper (appropriately
 ML> spun and processed).
 RH> Shhhhhhhhhhhh, you'll give somebody ideas and we'll see it next year.

 ML> Or maybe we could return to the classics with forgotten
 ML> stuff like gizzards (utterly delicious) and chicken heads
 ML> (you pick them up by the beak and chew from the other side).

Don't bet the farm on it.


 RH> Looking at the menues you sent to Dale, I see what you mean. I don't
 RH> know what the regular diet menu is like but from this listing, I'd
 RH> have trouble finding enough to eat for some meals.

 ML> Vanilla soy milk was my friend.

I can see why. Did you get to do any sort of evaluation of the place
afterward, and if so, did it include rating the food servive?


 ML> Spinach mushroom lasagna
 ML> cat: Italian, Singapore, pasta, main
 ML> servings: 6

That looks decadently yummy! Good thing I've already had supper or I'd
want to do this. (G)
