Re: Coupla Distractions...

Dr.Smith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx formulated on Friday :
OK, these are (selfishly) to help me keep distracted and cope with
some pretty bad BT (2nd day...)

1. What kinds of quilts do CP sufferers like? (Yeah, I design quilts
on a special software pkg. - keeps me busy and involved when I can't
do anything physical - I don't sew 'em. I was a designer, and
designing is designing.)

2. I think we need a term for ourselves - Chronic Pain "Patients" and
"Sufferers" may be accurate, but they seem too close to "Vctim" and
IMHO we need a term of empowerment. "Painees/Painies"? Too trite?
Yeah, one looks like "panties" and they both sound like pains in the
patoot...

Oh, the pain... THE PAIN...

How about CP Survivors? CP Champions? We are surviving and to survive inspite of the DEA and FDA we should be considered Champions.
