Get Well Soon lala_rawraw!

[benburch]

Hey guys! I just heard that our friend Larissa has pneumonia!

So;

GET WELL SOON!

:hi: :pals: :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: :yourock:

[TayTay]

1. Oh Lala, I hope you feel better soon.

You need to call me dear. We never got to gossip.

Hey, get well soon sweetie!

[Lone_Star_Dem]

2. Wishing her a speedy recovery!

:hi: :grouphug:

[blm]

3. Wishing you well, larissa.

Please take it easy. In 2004, I had pneumonia 3 times because I didn't let myself get well enough the first time. It's so easy to relapse.

Take care of yourself. We need you.

[Jackpine Radical]

4. We Love LaLa

Get better soon--not just for your sake, but for ours!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[lala_rawraw]

5. thank you:) am typing in bed, lol

[Scout1071]

8. I'm with you girl.

I've been stuck in my apartment since Wednesday fighting the world's worst sinus infection. Cabin fever finally got the best of me today and I ventured all the way to the market and made dinner.

Don't mess around with pnuemonia - be sure to take it easy.

Hope you recover quickly.

[lala_rawraw]

11. I did the dr. thing last

Week and got all my meds, but I think my Lupus is complicating things. Going for a quicki :) at Dr. office tomorrow to make sure the lungs look pretty on the big screen. But am having loads of fun watching really bad movies that my husband got me and eating loads of soup. Plus my cats are with me and I finished my article on deadline for tomorrow, in bed. This "in bed" thing couldbe the start of a new fad of changing the world, one pillow at a time:D

[bear425]

18. Oh, hope you feel much better soon!

Glad to hear that your kitties and hubby are taking good care of you! :hug:

[Scout1071]

I've had a movie fest as well. Today, The Color Purple.

Such a beautiful film/novel. I think it is actually my all-time favorite movie. I've seen it probably two dozen times! And I'm be damned if I didn't cry through the entire last 10 minutes again. Only movie that makes me cry every single time I see it.

Take the time to relax and enjoy it as much as you can. You deserve a rest. Happens to the best of us.

Keep us posted this week.

46. Lala -- Feel better! Sounds crazy but try this:

Acupuncture cured my daughter's chronic pneumonia in a single session, honest to God.

The kid was a competitive figure skater, couldn't get through her routine even once in 3 months without stopping, wheezing...Went to the acupuncturist, got off the table, no more wheezing.

Next day, she skated her routine FOUR TIMES back to back. Doc wanted to put her on oral steroids, but the needles did the trick instead!

I edit a journal that covers alternative meds, and this isn't as odd as it seems. A lot of people have had respiratory conditions cured or improved by an acupuncturist.

6. I had no idea. Get well soon lala, we need you. eom

[Kurovski]

7. Heal, oh beauteous one!

:-)

[liberalnurse]

9. Oh my....LaLa......

Drink plenty of fluids! Cough and deep breath as tolerated every 2 hours while awake...I'm serious...it might hurt a pinch but it helps in the the recovery. O8) :hug:

Get well my friend.

[lala_rawraw]

13. I am told to

Use my expectorant and ONLY cough once an hour for a productive movement. Hurt a pinch? No, more like a kick with high heel shoes, plus you get that whole gag reflex. I am taking a cough suppressant too and a steroid inhaler and antibots, and some other secondary inhaler. I don't feel so bad unless I try to walk, then I simply start to feel very tired, like a I ran a race and short of breath. Fever is down though, so that is good, but the stuff coming up is quite ugly I must say. Not sure what the hell it is even, but not pretty. Thanks for hugs, really, means a great deal.

[G_j]

10. get well soon!!

hope you are able to get some reading/R&R time in

[Pithy Cherub]

12. LaLa, you have my Best Get Well Soon

Thoughts, Wishes and Prayers. We need you and your mighty keyboard back out there fit and fighting to inform us who hunger to hear every bit of news. Make sure you rest and do everything right otherwise the dreaded relapse. I speak from painful experience.

:hug: :yourock: :pals:

[EFerrari]

14. Get well soon, lala!

:loveya:

[MelissaB]

15. Get well soon! Positive thoughts coming your way.

:hi:

[bleever]

16. Just remember: no matter what you cough up,

it can't be as ugly as this administration.

Get well soon! So glad to hear you at least feel well enough to work. I've missed seeing your byline here and at RS.


:hi:


:hug:

[Nothing Without Hope]

23. Leave it to bleever...

He, er, comes up with the ultimate line. Yeah, the administration's definitely worse. Too bad antibiotics can't take care of THAT problem.

[bleever]

35. As DUers, we have very high expectorations of each other.

Right?

:)

[Nothing Without Hope]

40. aaaaaaaaaarrrrrgh!!!!!! ...and you don't want to see what that was...

...but I'll name it after you! :loveya:

[bleever]

44. "Expectorum bleeverii".

:rofl:

Please, please: if it's good enough please use "larisaii".


:)

[Nothing Without Hope]

47. Oh, I dunno - there's a precedent for a more basic nomenclature here:

(This could be Ward & June's neighborhood!!!! :scared: )

But I suppose we could compromise and go with Blobbus larisae...

[freefall]

62. That IS a great line and I needed something to laugh about.

I add my wishes for Larissa's complete and speedy recovery.

:hi:

[acmejack]

17. Hope you are healthy again quickly!

Pneumonia is awful hard on a person.

[stevedeshazer]

22. Best wishes, Larissa

Get well, we need you here.

[lostnfound]

24. Oh, dear, I hope she recovers more quickly than I did from the bronchitis

This bug that is going around is hellish. Took 6 weeks and I still have a steady obnoxious cough.

Dear Larisa, if you're reading this, get well soon. I love Raw Story -- I check it twice a day, at least.

Manchester, England, 1965."http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0000648WH/sr=8-3/qid=1139810995/ref=sr_1_3/103-4755652-0310201?%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance

Your spirit is too important for us ALL, so tonight I will search the universe in deep sleep for whatever it takes to drive the petty annoyances away (POOF! THEY'RE GONE NOW!), KNOWING you're in good health and as feisty as ever. :loveya:

[lala_rawraw]

64. awwwwwwwwwwwwwww

well the update is that i have to take oral steroids it seems, which I really don't want to do, but for only 4 days... am not "brining up" enough it seems...blah!!

but hanging in here, just screwed me up on my work and I am bored watching the boob box... and I cannot sleep because of all the coughing...jokes, can someone start a long thread of jokes, funny clips, and puzzles? just something to do when sleep is busy staying out all night.

thanks again:D
