Marti -

you are now linked to the new DDA logo but it has the name of the new logo - it used to be just dda now it is dda small so somehow the link was changed - did hunka hunka do it for you? otherwise - maybe the powers that be decided instead of sending emails to just adjust the logo for you?!?

if so - I think that was pretty nice of them - to center it =- go to your user cp - edit signature - highlight and hit the center button then save signature

Not exactly sure what happened, but then again, when it concerns my computer I'm never sure what happened!! But I think I've changed it now. Thanks - let see how long that lasts!

I have a stupid question -

what is the treatment for a broken rib?

A wrap, like a huge ace bandage, around the ribs. My dad had a hairline crack in one a while back and he said it was extremely painful, because you can't immobilize it like an arm or leg.

I think they usually just wrap you real tight around the middle. Not sure.

I was looking at your lovely children in your sig was thinking you need to add a picture of Mrs. Potts.

Don't know of the treatment, but what happened???

 

[julia & nicks mom]

Don't know of the treatment, but what happened???

not sure - just have a huge pain in my ribs - it is clearly my ribcage that is hurting - not the muscle or an internal organ - it isn't too bad during the day but at night I can't even lay down on that side - we had company in bed a couple of times this week and I am wondering if one of them kicked me while I was sleeping

 

[Steamboat Marti]

Definately take a bunch of Advil or Motrin and try to sleep. What if you sleep in a recliner so that you're not flat? Will that help?

This is what happened to my dad. We were at Funland, (arcade, putt-putt, go carts, etc.) and someone ran into his go-cart. After that he complained about his side hurting (the side he got hit on). Well, a few days later, he sneezed really hard, and fell to the floor in pain. The crash must have started it but the sneeze actually finished off the break.

 

[Tammi67]

Ok, all. I'm off to bed. DH is working tomorrow and my kids will be up by 8AM. I so wish they were late sleepers. Good night.

Guess i wont' be sneezing this week!!

I can lay on the other side and it isn't too bad - it just hurts if I roll over and it is on my preferred sleeping side - I don't have a good recliner to sleep in - I might try propping up my pillows though

[Steamboat Marti]

[miss missy]

Cant help on that one. I did it till I married! For real, at bed time !

[PNO4TE]

Well, we'll be at Pop on the 17th with you But we check out and leave on the 18th, so our trips don't overlap that much! Have fun, though ... it looks like you have a lot of fun stuff planned!

Sorry we probably won't run into you this trip. And we DO have lots of fun stuff planned. Lots of resting up from a hectic recital schedule that does not stop until Friday, 12/16 at 9:30 p.m.

 

[PNO4TE]

I actually never minded watching Shining Time Station and Barney with my sister. QUOTE]

Ahhhhh... How about Eureka's Castle and Today's Special from the old Nickelodeon Network? Or The Elephant Show with Sharon, Lois and Bram?

And then there was Baby Songs... I think that is what it was called. We have ALL those videos.

And if we go back to FirstBorn DD... Sesame Street.

 

[PNO4TE]

Way off thread! Does anybody live near Tucson? My husband has a business trip there in Jan. We are trying to decide if we should go with him.

Don't live anywhere near Tucson, but you should go. It is a beautiful area and you get to go away with your DH!

 

[PNO4TE]

Yep - I've kept every one of Matt's teeth. Problem is, what do I do with them now???

Make a necklace........

ETA: I wrote this before I read Tammi's advice. We are on the same wave length. Either that or her mother and I are the same age....

That's true, they aren't using the rib binders anymore because of impaired breathing (from less chest expansion), pneumonia, and other complications.
