Yes, very strange. Maybe yous is not so much sinus, but something viral. I have a bum kidney and the pain is killing me.



I'm pretty sure it's just a head cold. I've already had something viral, I was horizontal for three weeks with Dengue Fever in March. That was miserable.
But i'm now going to stop complaining, cause I just have a few sniffles, while you have a bum kidney.
I hope you feel better.
Do kidneys get better? or just replaced?
hope you don't mind me asking

you guys are hard core.

The whole post accumulation campaign make me think of the movie "A Christmas Story" you know where the little boy, Ralphy, saves up all the box tops to get the little orphan annie decoder ring. When it comes he listens to the radio program only to find out it's an ad for ovaltine.
Wouldn't it be funny if at the end of your post collecting you just found an ad for a drink powder?

Really?
hmm, I wonder why they call it a green card then
KHURRAM SERAJ
BCZ it used to be green nots just a permanent resident card with a chip built in
GrenadianCrix
matt, I like your disclaimer though

Personally i found myself staring at it for a bout 10 minutes when i first saw it.
I teach special Education in Grenada. It makes me think about some of the kids.
They are funny, but they are also fun. Seeing them all happy is a bit contagious, partly because you laugh with them, partly because you laugh at them (sometimes you just can't help yourself)
they don't mind, my students love making me laugh.

I was in the process of answering this question when I got booted offline. Kidneys do not regenerate themselves like say, the liver. A person can live with only one, but as we know the body was designed to have two. People can get kidney transplants . Mine are not at that stage yet , and if kidneys fail, they put people on dialysis. What a way to live, eh?

i have audio clips of the songs in the chinese restaurant.

However, I usually did not get what I asked for....lol

Looks like we are a bunch of sick tickets, my fiance and myself. He is a beautiful young man with a mechanical heart valve ( since February ) and now gallbladder and liver problems. I got the kidney trouble. If this process lingers on and on, we could be dead . It is in God's hands.

or you two could bounce back and compete in the international organ donor olympics. yes there is such a thing, i've met a woman who ran in it. Good Luck with it all. sounds like the visa journey is not the only path your on right now. I wish you both the best in your recoveries. Sometimes inredible things happen, I've seen it.
