hello, this is raven, Phoenix's submissive *waves hi*  unfortunately Phoenix has had a bad time recently - when it rains, it pours! he was in the hospital for a week, most of that in ICU, for a blood clot found in his lungs, on top of pneumonia! he's been home 2 weeks, still needs oxygen, and is on blood thinners. his back is reallllly hurting him now (the herniated disks he'd written about here), i think it's worsened by being stuck in bed or having to sit so much. he's used to being on his feet pretty much all day, climbing around, very active guy. also, his ulcers make things difficult, because the blood thinners can cause them to bleed. he's way too young for all of this stuff!

the good news is, he's quit smoking, and has friends locally who understand how hard that is, that he can talk to. whew!

it pains my heart to see my Dom so sick!! also, not sure if this is a guy or a Dom thing, or both, but he gets majorly grumpy if i offer to do anything for him, or ask questions. it's my nature to serve, but i sense he perceives needing help as weakness right now. anyway, he can definitely use prayers and light from those he's come to know here :) i'm not sure when he'll be on again, but can pass him messages. he's an extremely terrific person and it just sucks so badly to see him down :(

Allow him time in the cave.  It is a man thing, introspection.  Everything is gonna be ok, I am a Dom, I guarentee it.

Pain meds make a person grumpy as well as quitting smoking.

I am sure, he has no clue he is being this way.

Just give him a break and go have a break yourself when he gets this way, then come back after coffee in a hospital lounge. 

Most likely, he might be doped up and think 'Oooo she is visiting me' and it all starts over again. LOL.

A vicious, loopy circle.

Ask the doc about quitting smoking medication? Or the patch or the gum even. He had pneumonia and a clot, he can't smoke ever again. But nicotine is an extremely difficult addiction to quit.

And yeah, he has to stay in bed while the lungs recover. There's only so much the antibiotics can do while the lungs are being pushed to work harder.

Maybe give him a bell to ring if he needs you? Bring up a thermos of coffee or tea so he can refill his own cup rather than keep asking you to do it?

Basically, good luck to him and sympathy to you taking the brunt of his unhappiness. Men should never be sick!

Well first I'd like to say thanks to my precious submissive for her love and support. She deserves a spanking.lol Secondly thanks to all for your thoughts and prayers. This stuff is very scary and its is driving me nuts to be cooped up in bed resting. Arrrrrrrgggggg. My ability to do anything has been gravely affected and I'm not the type of person who will just accept my new limitations. Any way its nice to know that my submissive has an outlet. Thanks for your support.

My best to you and he, and all kinksters.

This is a Man thing. For example I was homeless about 25 years or so ago. I refused to ask for anything. Once in a while from a friend, but I would not panhandle or beg. I was owed some favors, I also sold things, did some odd jobs and even stole at times. I have this block aganst asking for certain types of help.

I think there is some of this in your Master. He wants what he wants, not what he needs. I understand this.

He wants dominance for kink purpose, and is probably not feeling real kinky at the moment. I understand completely.

Incedentally, a few years ago a cure was introduced for ulcers. It had been used on pigs for decades. If his doctor hasn't tried it, or doesn't know about it he should get a second opinion. Heart/lung specialists might not know about it. It involves a supplement and an antibiotic. It is said to actually cure ulcers, not just treat them. It came out about five years ago. What needs to be determined, if he can find a doctor familiar with the procedure, is if it a compatible with the medications he is on now. Healing those ulcers would make him alot more comfortable while he is on the blood thinners.

When he gets out of the danger zone, dietary changes are needed. You might not be able to reverse the damage done, but stop further damage.

Get off the carbs, eat less pasta, rice and cereal. Eat more meat and seafood, and I mean SEA food, from the sea, not farm raised. Other than that, green or some other deep color veggies, nuts, spices (certain ones only due to the ulcer), vinegar.

No more sugar, soda, frenchfries, get out of all of the junk. You are what you eat, nutrients do not absorb through the skin, except if you swim in the ocean or take salted baths, which is not a bad idea either.

Get completely off of table salt, use seasalt instead. This is not limited to a doctor's recommendatin of low sodium. To make sure, grind some up and put it in a salt shaker. If it clumps up it is good for you, if it doesn't stay away. If you can't get the really good seasalt, at least get the stuff without the anti-clumping agent. Then at least the sodium is properly absorbed. Don't worry if he has high blood pressure, the table salt must be limited because the sodium cannot be properly absorbed by the body. This is not true of unrefined salt.

In fact, high blood pressure and many other problems can be caused by a sodium deficiency (surprise surprise), but the crux of the matter is that we cannot absorb the sodium properly from modern table salt.

I am not a doctor, but I know a few things. I can send you some seasalt, but don't eat it, it does not clump. It is unrefined, it just happens to have enough of something in it naturally that keeps it from clumping. Therefore do not eat it, but you can bathe in it. I have quite abit of it, 23 pounds actually. Your skin can indeed absorb these essential minerals, that other companies sell after they refine it. It's just I have the opinion that if it does not clump, you shouldn't eat it.

If you get me on the other side and tell me where to send it, I will. Be aware that a saltbath makes the bottom of the tub very slippery, be careful. Also, if both of you shower beforehand, you can both take a bath in it, even together if you like. The skin is the largest organ in the body, and if you have doubts about being able to absorb nutrients through it I have a few words for you : "nicotine patch" and "nerve gas". For modern nerve gas a gas mask does not work, you need the whole body covered because it absorbs through the skin.

If poisons can be absorbed through the skin, so can nutrients. I'll send you a couple pounds of the bath salt. And do it alot, almost every day. It can't hurt.

Quitting smoking is a step in the right direction. Even cutting down. My boss at the one job smokes about a half a cigatrette a few times a day, throws the rest out. I, on the other hand am a heavy smoker, but have not gotten any really bad side effects ......yet. If you smoke a pack a week it is not hurting you all that much. When you smoke two packs a day I can't say that. Too much is too much.

But it's not just smoking, and doctors just aren't all that keen on nutrition. The research in this country on the subject of malnutrition is very misdirected. You need minerals. They do not address this at all. Rather they try to get so technical nobody knows what is going on. I have a series of articles on the subj ect if you are interested.

I know this is probably not what you expected, I will not pray because it does not work, I can give my best wishes (which I do) but that doesn't mean shit. The only cure is to remedy the conditions that led to his condition. But when you ask for support/help, expect things like this from me. I am into solutions, not ranting chanting, praying or playing. If he orders you to go to McDonald's to get him a bunch of junk food, with a supersize fries, refuse and take your lashes. That is serving him better than anything. But then you will probably have to cook him something if he is hungry.

If you do, throw out all margarine, Crisco, anything hydrogenated. Potatoes be gone, get some wild rice if you can get him to eat it. Cheese, not cheese food. Imitation NOTHING. Low fat NOTHING. It is all worse poison than the original.

And when it comes to drugs, try to eliminate or reduce the dose of calcium blockers and MAO inhibitors. Don't just blindly take what they give. find out what each drug does and make coherent decisions about it. I don't want to see anyone on CM lose a loved one, they are too damn hard to find.

Be well, or try to get well, try to get him well. If you want more on the subject catch me on the other side. This may be a drastic change in diet, but it helped me. I used to be barely able to walk back when I lived on junkfood and pizza. I changed the way I eat and have improved dramatically, to the point where I had a chipped tooth that capped itself ! I also took colloidal mineral supplements for a few years. That, with shunning table salt, hydrogenated anything (margarine, Crisco) and sugar have made me twenty years younger almost. My health is not perfect, but it is a hell of alot better than it used to be. I found an ice cream place the uses no sugar in their ice cream, only honey. This year before it gets cold I will have my first taste of icecream in OVER 15 YEARS. I cannot stress enough about getting off the sugar. It leeches the nutrients out of the body and what you need is excreted by urination and defecation. Sugar is worse for you than cocaine. Interestingly, they are grown in similar areas of the planet and refined almost exactly the same way. They are both addictive as well.

So I leave you with that and my best wishes. Consider what I have said. It is my firm belief that the body can repair itself if given the proper nutirents.

I'll close with that.

T
