In checking the calendar, I noticed several procedures during the last week. JulieW4 and Rosalie had Translabs, KLM had a GK, and Catflower got a BAHA. Has anyone heard from them?
Looks like next week is one of those slow AN weeks.

David:
Julie is doing splendidly. Out of hospital in 48 hours! She's probably trying out for the Olympics by now. :)

No word on Rosalie as yet that I know of, although I might have missed it. Hard to keep up with so many surgeries, but we try.
Well, this upcoming week is pretty quiet - and probably just as well.
Jim

Thanks for the link Jim. I'm away from the board for a day and I get lost. It's really great to see that Julie did so well.

I just now found where Julie's post was. I'm still thinking there should be a "On Deck" heading for surgeries and hospital stays alone so well-wishing and procedures don't get lost in the shuffle -- like I tend to do. Just a thought.

Catflower (Linda) and sabuck (Steve aka Bucko) both got their BAHA processor this week! Linda on the 2nd and Steve on the 3rd. We've heard from both of them - and they are happy campers ;D
As Jim pointed out, we also heard from JulieW, but nothing from Rosalie yet.
From what I understand, Phyl will be off of her hiatus soon - perhaps we can have her designate a place to post "On Deck" wishes. Maybe like you suggested before, we can make it someone's responsibility to start a weekly thread.
Haven't had time to check the calendar for next week yet, but I think Tumbleweed starts his radiation on the 7th.

David, I agree that it is confusing where to post for updates on surgeries and so forth. I knew I had a couple options to chose from when I was deciding where to post my update of surgery. Things are still going well. I'm a very tired and sleeping a lot but that it to be expected. It really means a lot when I know people who have gone through this are concerned about me.

Yeppers, off hiatus... have you all taken cover yet? ;)
"Pre-Treatment" would be a terrific spot for "On Deck". "Post Treatment" for after-the-fact or specific issues locations (ie: hearing, facial, etc). No worries...
BTW, David.... hope you are doing ok... you know I'm sending the Celtics... um.... er.... Boston hugglez! :)

one of the ideas we also had along these lines was to designate an "official delegate" to start the pre-treatment well wishes posts based on the AN Calendar.
Any thoughts on this?
Should we just nominate ourself or someone else and see if we can all agree on a delegate?
Thanks in advance for the input ;D

hmmmmmmmmmmmm.... ok, we know the AN Calendar is in place, so a terrific step #1. In trying to do the well wishes (which we know to keep to "AN Community" forum).... me thinks you all nominate 2 folks... in case someone is away on vaca/sick day/hiatus/on ebay goofing, etc. and have 1 person to help back them up. Just my thoughts.....

Okay, since Jim Scott and Steve already have jobs, I nominate LA David and Debbi.
Either of you guys willing to take on this responsibility?
Or does anyone want to nominate themself?
Jan
-
I just got nominated for what :o ? Sure I'll do it. Every Sunday under the Pre-Treatment heading, I'll list the week's upcoming adventures.
And BTW Phyl, being anti-anything that Kobe has to do with, I'm not a Lakers fan. I'm actually a Suns fan and have been for as long as I can remember. I was glad to see the Celtics beat Kobe. But when it comes to baseball, I am very loyal to LA teams. We shall keep an eye on the Angels and Sox this year. ;)
David
-
Okay to that - I'll be your backup, David! It is only appropriate that we have someone from the Right Coast, and someone from the Left Coast. I'll check the first thing Monday mornings, and if there's nothing from you, I've got your back!
BTW, I'm anti-Kobe too. He's a terrible role model.
So, what does this gig pay, anyway???? ::) David, I think we should immediately ask for a raise...
Debbi, reporting in from the Right Coast
-
Hey Debbi
From what I understand this job pays zillions. I think we just hit a gold mine. ;D Just don't tell anyone. They'll all want to get in on it.
Thanks for the back-up. I'll post first thing Sunday morning in the Pre-treatment section. Already got it on my calendar. We all need to make sure that we encourage newbies to list their procedures on the Calendar. I noticed there isn't a lot going on in August.
This is me being cool in my new jetset lifestyle 8)

David & Debbi -
if I knew it would be this easy, I'd have nominated you both for many more things this past year ;)
Glad to see you are both willing to take on this high-paid job!
David, any room on that trip? I've been dying to see Tahiti ;D
Jan (just for the record - not a Kobe fan either)

Asking for a raise works for me. Every time I do it, my pay rate gets doubled! :D
I think I would be tempted to just move to Tahiti.
Thanks, David and Debbi, for taking the calendar monitor job. Scary to think that we might get organized around here, though. :o
Steve

Steve, David, and Debbi (and Phyl, joef, and Jim Scott, too) -
your reward is the undying gratitude of all your fellow forumites :D
It definitely won't pay your bills, but it's more valuable than all the money in the bank ;)

You got me on that one, Jan! Totally agree... but.... I do need a new car, paying for 2 plane tix to the UK for Christmas holidays, some clothes (have gained far too much weight and nothing fits anymore), some new furniture, gas for my car, etc..... I'm still waiting on my raise. I've mentioned it to the ANA office from time to time.... I'll take their undying gratitude that they always share...... works for me...... So, if anyone does make money from doing this gig..... please remember I am a chartible cause! ;D

Phyl, do you give out tax receipts? ;D

Okay, let's not get crazy now, okay? "organized" may be too ambitious...
Debbi

Maybe since Steve and Jim make so much money as moderators now (must just be the new ones making money - the "old" ones seem to think they're broke), they can each pitch in some of their salary to David and Debbi. :D
I know they wouldn't mind - they seem so generous! :D Watch out for Steve though - I hear he's pretty good at arts and crafts - he might be passing along some counterfeits! :o
Lori

Hey Lori
This is just my first step in becoming a wealthy moderator. Leer jets and caviar all the way for me. Why did I waste so many years on acting? A few minutes on Sunday morning and untold zillions pop up in my bank account. Say Phyl, just how does that happen anyway since you don't have my address or my bank account info? Oh heck, you know all that stuff. I'll leave it up to you. I'm buying an Astin-Martin tomorrow and when the ask me how -- I'll just say, Phyl's got me covered. You do, don't you? Phyl? The $100,000 Astin-Martin is cool -- isn't it?

*slaps forehead, rolls eyes ::) and let's loose with an....*
oy gevalt.
:)

And, I think I probably need an apartment on Grammercy Park in NYC - for entertaining, you know. That's okay, right, Phyl? (David, you need to go for something beach front ... with a big garage for the AM...)
Debbi
-
Just a reminder to everyone, in an attempt to get "organized" ;) we're posting this weeks upcoming events under Pre-Treatment Options. There are a few that you may want to check out *hint*.
David
-
so, who's gonna rob a bank to pay for all of this, eh?
Thanks David for the reminder! Great job! Did you ask for the raise yet? BTW... Kobe who? ;)
