Originally posted in alt.support.cancer.prostate:

Two older men are sitting on a park bench talking and one of them
asks the other about his sex life. The man answers that he has an
excellent sex life and is still very active.

The other man confesses that his sexual appetite has greatly
diminished with old age so he asks the other man if he has any
secrets for staying sexually vital.

"Well," answered the man, "I eat rye bread everyday. That is my
secret. If you just eat rye bread, your sex life will improve
dramatically."

The other man decides to follow this advice and finds a bakery
nearby. He tells the clerk behind the counter that he wants all
of the loaves of rye bread that they have in stock.

The clerk then asks the man, "Do you want whole loaves or do you
want us to slice them?" The man looks puzzled and asks the clerk,
"What is the difference?"

The clerk responds, "Well when it's sliced, it gets harder faster."

To which the man responded, "How come everyone knew about this but
me?"

I'm just curious. Why responses you make to posts end up starting a
thread all their own?

I don't have a problem with it. It's just a puzzlement to me.

BTW it might not be you. It might be my server and/or newsreader.

He's living in the Ice Age. Hasn't he ever heard of Juvenile
Rheumatoid Arthritis, or of babies born with arthritis?

We are a support group, not a medical group.

We don't diagnose or prescribe medicines for anyone.

But I will warn you that there is no such thing as a "home
remedy," in spite of what all the rip-off artists will have
you believe.

If you have any metal implants (hips, knees, heart, etc.),
be sure the doctor knows and gives you an antibiotic at
least 30 minutes before the procedure.

If he doesn't offer a pain killer before the biopsy, walk
out of that office as fast as you can (after you dress).

  questions on behalf of a recent toe-surgery patient         


Author: shoemakerted
Date: May 5, 2008 08:43

Hello,

A 44-year-old woman recently had a bunionectomy on each of her big
toes. An artificial joint replacement, called "hemicap", was
implanted in each foot. The doctor and physical therapists are
telling her to get "shoes with support", but it's not yet clear what
that means.

First question: Does "support" mean: firm arches? back straps? closed
toes? stiff uppers? etc.

Second question: If she's determined to wear "cute" shoes (and by
that, she usually means minimal sandals), is there such a thing as
"cute shoes" with "support"?

Thank you for all serious replies.
