Re: What's the latest in people's lives?

My Mom died on February 29th at 5:30pm. They did a CAT scan earlier that day and found she wasn't getting oxygen in the area of her stomach. Which according to her doctor, it's indicating her stomach was dying. They could not do surgery because she wouldn't survive it or even she did she still had i...

Re: What's the latest in people's lives?

Seems like a reasonable option so long as she can get there safely. Wishing for the best. Today we found out it can't happen. Some hospital politics. My Dad is still pissed because the hospital was so quick to try to pull the plug. Anyway my brother and his wife visited her today and she was wide a...

Re: What's the latest in people's lives?

I think after sleeping on it, my Das has decided to keep the treatments for my Mom. The simple reason is that my Mom is responsive and at times wide awake. Yelling at nurses and all that. Pulling the plug so to speak just seems to be too early for that. Right now the idea is move her to another hosp...

Re: What's the latest in people's lives?

Got a call today to come to the hospital this time very very serious. Last night at 11:30pm I got a call about sending my Mom back to the ICU, so I know today's phone call was serious. Anyway, treatments for my Mom's infection isn't working. The doctors have suggested at this point to do pain manage...

Re: Cool Picture Thread

https://i.imgur.com/Bs6rFuo.jpg Nelson class is an interesting one that is one that came from the above G3 class. The reason why the turrets, the guns are all forward is dud to the armor scheme. Shorter armor box with all of the turrets forward as opposed to the more classic two forward, one or two...

Re: Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes | Teaser Trailer

The original movie is well worth watching. The sequels less so. For 1968 it was amazing. The final scene is excellent, but even if you don't know what it was would be somewhat spoiled by knowing the modern movies. I remember watching the original movies back in the 90's when they would do a maratho...

Re: Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes | Teaser Trailer

Are they ever going to have a nuclear war in this series of movies. It was always implied from the original that this was the downfall of mankind and the eventual rise of the Apes. These seem to have forgotten about that. I never watched the previous movie series but from what I gathered how the ap...

Re: What's the latest in people's lives?

Thanks everyone. She is still not well and looking rough but stable. Yes, there is still a danger with that infection. But she seems to be getting better slowly. I do know she will be there for awhile and then get transferred for physical therapy. One of her issues which is more on her than anything...

https://i.imgur.com/by0Oxvw.png Nice picture. Never seen that one before. I got a giant collection of naval history books. Over two book cases worth with a main theme of battleships. Never seen this one. Fun thing about the G3 is that despite being classified as a battle cruiser it's capabilities c...

Re: What's the latest in people's lives?

I had to make a similar call to my siblings during my time caring for a parent. Go and stay as long as you can, even if she isn't awake/aware. My thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Thank you. I had received similar calls when it came to my grandparents (mother side) years ago. They w...

Re: What's the latest in people's lives?

My Mom has been in the hospital for for the past week. Back in 2020 had a kidney transplant which left her immune system non existent. She also came in with a host of issues that they had to fix during that time. She was there from February to October. She racked up a $7 million bill, good thing she...

The Abyss is great. Once you get over the dyslexic worry that it is about nuns. :) I don't get it. Like I said haven't seen it in a long time. Like I am not even sure when I last saw it. So I don't get that reference. The head honcho at a nunnery is the Mother Abbess Well I forgot so much about tha...
