                   Just increasing my "Medical Knowledge"! (Wishing I had access to either a Matter Transporter (Star Trek) or a few of Canaisis 's Nanos installed! The word of the week/month is Streptococcus Coagulase. Which to the best of what I can determine is Streptococcus virus builds a shield ( pretty smart for a virus!??) in order to PREVENT detection. Third time since Bypass surgery I've had a run in with it or a friend of its. I've been reading some on the other service and trying to watch for posting for verbal chapters being released and reading some of Lady A's other works posted there. And laying low (and watching the snow fly, tip of the hat to an old Elvis song! LOL) What's up and new in your side of the planet?

@-NikaRave- Not bad, still having BP issues but now it's thought to be meds that need adjustments. Otherwise getting better in most ways. I do wish to say thanks again for the "Crewman" Status on Canaisis

@-NikaRave- Well, Pressures are for the most part staying up but Doc's not quite sure if normal progress or blood clot that developed in right wrist/hand causing it! Now youay have a good idea whyy family has a saying that "Murphy was an Optimist!" LOL (Also why we decided on the safest and least problematic procedure) Overall things are good. Will do follow up on Emails and had daughter do some for me the other day, but my fingers are hitting the right key's (most of the time now 

KevinMcKinney

@-NikaRave- I have found the Emails and will look/listen soon as I am "All here!" (Blood pressures of 74/58 is very low and near black out level for me so going slow as easily confused right now with low compression levels that should prove in coming days. (Daughter Jennifer is sending this for me as my fingers just won't do what brain is telling them! ) LOL

Kevin, my friend, have completely blown me away. Lady Annika is already made great use of the gift. Please, allow me to return the gesture in a small way. 
                   Sincerely, Raven

@KevinMcKinney Glad you pulled through, Kevin! Hope your recovery goes well. Check your inbox for several emails; I shared a few 'listening entertainment' from our joint account.

Hey Kevin, that was you I was referring to in the Authors note. Tks for being around and, well, just being you. How are you getting along health-wise?
                        ~R~

-NikaRave-

@-NikaRave- Kevin, I'm not sure what to say to all that, except "Wow, that sucks".
                Then I thought about it some more and this came to mind. Never underestimate the power of (1) Prayer. It never hurts to get right with the universe. (2) Laughter. Start binging comedy skits if you have to but find it and share it with others. Good old fashion wholesome laughter heals. (3) Herbs. Research the old knowledge. Do you remember the story of the three wise men who brought gifts to Jesus? One of them was Frankincense. It turns out the bark of the Frankincense tree is an incredible antiinflammatory, it's refered to as Boswella (works better than Ibuprofen, IMO). You see, the wise men brought medicine. Medicine that we have forgotten about. So, start researching the natural medicines. I find western medicine (and doctors) to be incredibly short sighted.
                  Well, that all I have for right now. Hang in there and hang around here, we need you to see the last page of this story. It would pain me not to read your opinion of the ending. Remember, the story teller told you in the very first page, this is a love story....and the ending is a happy one.
                          ~R~

@-NikaRave- On a quick secondary note, you have in a way already givene a measure of immortality by the one chapter dedication and I again THANK YOU for that.    Kevin

@-NikaRave- overall good, I must say that I have a pending surgery coming as my Left Carotid artery is 71% blocked and the docs are advising surgery within a few weeks due to its condition! (Same crap they told me about scans in December before that became an Emergency Quad by-pass surgery the next day!) I have finished the CT scan and you have the results and confirmed 71%! (Family mottos, 1st "Murphy was an Optimist", 2nd
             "If it wasn't for BAD luck we wouldn't have ANY luck at all"!) LOL I did ask some questions about the talking book but somehow our communications are not getting thru!   And if nothing else I would like to be known/remembered by some for seeing the great story contained in the chronicles and supported it's continuation. I still have to decide whichode of surgery will afforde the least chance of stroke and or nerve damage which could be "MY" Final chapter. I would like precise instructions on how to cover the unlimited year program and how to make sure that it covers you both. 
                 I will have a lot to do in the next few weeks and will look for the email. BTW a GREAT pause (Definitely NOT the ending and shouldn't be called that either!) to the Chronicles and can only hope that when it continues that I am here to continue to enjoy it's greatness. An old quote comes to myind right now from some other story I've read iny years and it's NOT a goodbye but lind of a "See Ya Later" type saying and it simply says        "Clear Skies" 
            (Sucks to remember something but not where the hell it came from!) LOL

Hey Kevin, how ya doing? Healing up I hope. I'm feeling a little post 'chapter posting' let down. Was hoping to hear your thoughts on the chapter. I'll be honest, I thought of ya when the 'shoes in the corridor' came up. I hope I got a chuckle out of ya.

@-NikaRave-       HEY! Sorry, I kinda side stepped the 1st part of your text. I am feeling OK (not where I think I should feel, but it's good that no "Supermen" are really needed now as I just couldn't make it! LOL) The bypass and its effects have passed, and I only have 3 more rehab visits, and then it's time to see about adding more hours at work. But there is a complication as my scans came back that my left Carotid artery has a greater than 70% blockage, and that was the threshold for surgery, and I have known for a few weeks! I have been told that I'm  NOT taking it seriously like I did the bypass due to the high chances of stroke and nerve damage but I have told family and friends that worrying about something that I cannot change or do anything about is just a waste of time! So I am gonna try to have a great summer (until they decide on surgery date) and do things that I have missed in previous years (if I can  afford them) )one is Pearl Harbor so I can see what my father was building when he was wounded on Dec. 7th. The other (it's gonna get spendy!) Is to visit  and see where my family imagrated (Legally!) from. So now it's "Out there"

@-NikaRave- YEP! Chuckled both times I read it!  It is a chapter of Discovery for ALL! Again, the wispy veil of TIME is felt and acknowledged by both Gareth and Ayla. Ahmid had his own discoveries and self revelations, as did both Ayla and Gareth! I have a nagging feeling that Gareth is indeed holding back something, and I feel that it was something Dara said/imparted to him, and in a way, he fears what he knows of what may come. I also feel that both will find that Canaisis I deed is alive, INBOTH OF THEM one way or another (never trust a Nano!) LOL
