A brilliant physician and researcher indeed.<BR/><BR/>Keep up the blogging! <BR/><BR/>I hope and wish to leave more usefull comments in the near future!Albertohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01808102177363398719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19102494.post-12117511941650155652007-09-27T09:36:00.000-07:002007-09-27T09:36:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Albertohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01808102177363398719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19102494.post-46657714527855398462007-09-24T18:25:00.000-07:002007-09-24T18:25:00.000-07:00.......not that I've ever visited, but in Portland..........not that I've ever visited, but in Portland OR, you can find the Velveteria Museum of Velvet Paintings!One link described velvet painting as the Rodney Dangerfield of art...!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19102494.post-31763646587738912022007-09-20T16:07:00.000-07:002007-09-20T16:07:00.000-07:00David:This was a great read.

Techniques vary, and it has recently been reported that withdrawal should be slow and deliberate. Many practitioners just yank the thing out. <BR/><BR/>Also, there is no law that cancer must start in a polyp in the intestinal cavity. It can start in cells outside of the colon, and never be picked up on the colonoscopy until the disease is well advanced. So you cannot blame the patient for ignoring routine testing for all colorectal cancers.<BR/><BR/>As far as the art goes, I like the <BR/>'grandma in the forest fire' picture the best. Although the raccoon painting is also good in a bad way. Your paintings are good examples of folk art, in my opinion.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19102494.post-32521248134246324032007-09-17T17:15:00.000-07:002007-09-17T17:15:00.000-07:00I love Versed.

It is an interesting drug because even though the user feels as if he is asleep, he isn't. <BR/><BR/>I had been a user before I was a giver, so when I first gave it to an anxious patient before a bone marrow exam, I expected him to go to sleep like I thought I had done.<BR/><BR/>It's a great drug. You don't feel a thing (or, at least, you don't remember any discomfort), and you feel really relaxed for awhile afterwards.<BR/><BR/>But is it worth the prep? Like you, I'm not so sure...<BR/><BR/>Glad everything came out all right.
