not so much the bug i had as the pain med I was taking, gabapentin. I tripped out on it, I had the sweats, anxiety, suffocating feeling

yeah I hope he is ok thanks for the update

I was getting ready to stick out my thumb and hitchhike on up there to check him out, get him to sign my copy of cool calm collected

'In the spiritual and political loneliness of America of the fifties you'd hitch a thousand miles to meet a friend.

I heard from him. He's out of the hospital but needs follow-up. They found a mass on his vocal cords. That's all I know for now.

a mass - implying it's removable.
thanks, doreen.
when you hear something, you'll update us, no doubt

Yes, that's what I told him. They'll remove it and take care of him and he'll be able to talk and sing again and feel much better!

He's convinced he's dying, though. I directed him here. I hope he reads this thread.

The mind is a very powerful healer! Dear Clay, please believe in this power and think positively, not negatively! You'll be good as new soon! Sending you energy and strength and positive healing thoughts.

any current news on eLRod?

That's as current as I have info ... from yesterday. They found a mass on his vocal cords.

I'll keep you all posted when I hear more. He said he was going in today for a follow-up appointment. I imagine they'll do tests to determine what type of mass it is and how to approach removing it.

Surgeons must be very careful
When they take the knife!
Underneath their fine incisions
Stirs the Culprit,--Life!

well... at least it´s a mass, not a mess...!! (yeah..., I imagine it´s not a good time for bad jokes... sorry! ). Ahhh, the vocal chords... I almost got a master in the throat chackra last year... Hope you have enough paciencia & can recover soon, l-rod!! We´ll be here in case you want to do type-signs...

i tried call a few weeks ago, clay, but doreen didn't have your latest number. wanted to compare notes on sagebrush and whitman, or some-such... of course, you'll need your voice for that...

(i never use emoticons)..

I heard from him again last night.

He's having surgery on Tuesday. They will do a biopsy when they remove the mass (as I understand it). I guess he might have use of a laptop in the hospital. I don't know. He said he had blood pressure problems but they've stabilized it.

Please send your healing energy as his attitude isn't very good. He's convinced he's dying.

I asked him if he wanted me to come see him in Texas. I don't know how often he has access to a computer. I've directed him here but I have no idea if he's read these messages. So just send your positive energy his way!

I've told him that his mind is strong and powerful and to believe positive things, not negative things. I hope he starts doing that!

Positive vibes - clay just say yes to the positive vibes and let them take over.
Yes - that's all you have to do. Just lie there and say Yes.
no need to speak. No need to do anything. just feel Yes and lie back and let the vibes do the rest.

sending healing & loving vibes to l-rod specially next tuesday..., gracias doreen!!!

As if you were reading along with us on this one clay
"mass' now there is a word
I remember my sister came home a couple of years ago from a visit to her neighborhood doctor looking scared and depressed. It started when the doctors nurse told her "I will pray for you"

She come over and got on youtube and played "It's all over now baby blue" she played it and sang it a lot all day. She said she was okay with the mass thing it was the not knowing. Apparently women's abdomens are terra incognota took months and months and months of tests, misplaced tests, wrong tests ordered, more tests, and finally the good news.

I am vibrating my ass off for you
we all dying, I mean yeah some days more than others, but don't die on us now clay, just when politics is getting interesting again.

Boy oh boy it takes your mind of the eternal s

If you need a shoulder to lean on bro I can come up on tuesday, if you need anything.

I hope that helped
I don't know what to say
except good luck on the biopsy
sometimes a mass is just a mass
not a mess I suppose
been five years now she still going strong
but then they are the stronger sex
I will pray with Emily for the surgeon's

Sending positive vibes, get well soon LRod
