That explains it, I hope you didn't take that too seriously, we all know you're very frank in your manner of speaking, and I'm very much the same way in person, so I understand how i get labeled a problem when dealing with the general public. All jokes aside, I'm glad you didn't die on us.

Not at all...I just felt like sharing....
Texans do talk funny...but a speech therapist won't help that....

Us Arkies talk funny too. One of my favorite things about traveling is that people automatically assume I'm simple when they hear me speak. I have a lot of fun with those people.

I actually have had to teach myself to speak normally...( for a Texan)....
First...the Cancer was a mass on my tongue..and the surgeon removed quite a bit of my tongue so it didn't work the same anymore. He told my wife I probably would not be able to speak the same anymore.
I figured it out in less than 2 weeks and just used my tongue differently...and the surgeon freaked out.
Tougher was the loss of almost all my teeth..(two stumps of molars left now...due to radiation.
Again....I had to retrain the mechanics of speaking so I wouldn't sound like a guy with no teeth...( S is the hardest).
But it takes quite a bit of effort and concentration to do so....a few two many beers and I sound like all the other toothless people.

So is this where we're supposed to be calling Elmer Fudd as a translator???? 
Doug re: those pharna charges, etc -- all that can be disputed, as I'm sure you know. Even just raising the question they're likely to bump it down. Now, if you insurance wants to pay, "OK then...." Health care is nuts.

So I may or may not be on here for a few days. My mom had come home from the hospital just a few days ago, since there was no room for her at a nursing home for rehab. Well just this morning around 1am, she passed away in her sleep. My aunt performed CPR until the sheriff arrived and then the paramedics came with this automated CPR machine. They gave her 2 shots of adrenaline to try to revive her and they were going to give her a third but the doctor they were on the phone with said not too.
Right now this feels like a nightmare that you want to get up from, you can't. I did write this post a few hours ago, but deleted it. I have no appetite at all. This was a shock and surprised kick to the stomach. The coroner/medical examiner took her about 2am to Minneapolis to perform and autopsy to see what went wrong, what health conditions she has, and to take note of everything that could be passed down to myself or my brother genetically.
I'm glad I was able to see my mom in the short time she was home from the hospital, just wish it was a lot longer. She had wanted to live to be 100 years old, guess she'll get that wish, just not here. She was 60 and would be turning 61 in October. I'm glad she went peacefully and at home surrounded by family. It's going to be a rough time for us, but we'll deal with it. I never knew her healthy at all my whole life, so in a way I am hardened to this, unfortunately. But I'm glad she is no longer suffering and I believe she is seeing her dad again and past family members she never saw.
Sorry for such a downing post.

Sorry to hear that.
There are no words for times like this.
I hope you know we have heard you these past few months, and we are still here and care, If you want to share.
Take it easy bud.

Finally got some closure. My mom had a pulmonary embolism in her lungs, ie blood clots. This was the primary cause according to the coroner. Secondary cause was 30% blockage in the right side of her heart and 65% damage to the left side. Pulmonary embolism is pretty much 100% chance of not surviving. This sucks completely, but I'm going to do everything I can to keep myself active and healthy to prevent any of these things happening. I'm just glad she is no longer suffering and that she went peacefully.
Thanks for your kind words guys, you have no idea how much this means.

Please bear with me; in times like this, I have a habit of saying things that are, usually, misinterpreted...
That was the single most gut & heart wrenching post I've seen here, I literally felt my mood drop...
My sincerest condolences to you & your family; the next few days, weeks & months will be the hardest of your life, we're here for you...
I recall, when my father died, some years ago but, 3 weeks before christmas, that christmas was notably different; I have a large family but, compared to the amount of people present, it was eerily quiet; I have a feeling the mood around here will be, somewhat, similar over the next few days...

I had a bad day.. and I was going to tell you about that...
frankly, I won't!
My day was the perfect spring time picknick day compared to what you are going through Kartorbust.
My sincere condolences!
I cannot even imagine to loose my mom any time soon, I can only try to imagine what you must be going through.. and that alone feels absolutely terrible;
as Tony put it : "heart wrenching" indeed.
I wish you all the strength to come through the following weeks and months,
and all the love you can give to and get from your family to lessen the pain as much as possible.

Thank you, all of you. I believe the funeral home just a few miles from where I'm at, has picked up my mom within the last hour. I believe some time this week or next week, we'll be having a memorial service with family.
There's so much that goes through your mind when stuff like this happens. February 4, 2015 I lost my grandpa at the age of 81. He too died at home in hospice care after falling and hitting his head at a nursing home he was at. My grandma had his bed brought to their apartment from the hospital. I visited him while he was in the hospital, he was unresponsive, in a coma. He too went peacefully in his sleep. There is no way anyone can be prepared for this kind of thing. With my grandpa, we knew it was inevitable, so in a way we were as prepared for it in a way.
With my mom, no one expected this. It's possible she had a blood clot in her left leg that had been exacerbated, by her trying to use crutches, rather than trying to be bound to a wheelchair. I think what happened was, when she was getting up to use the crutches, she kind of twisted her already broken ankle a bit, and somehow that dislodged the blood clot. Her ankle and leg were in a leg brace boot. I can only guess what happened, but I do know one day I'll find out, or at least I believe so. Probably the hardest day now will be her memorial.
You all have been very kind these last few months. These have been some of the hardest times I've been through, and you guys have all been helpful.
Thank you all so very much for your kind words and condolences, it honestly does mean a lot.
