Selling Toes on E-Bay

[hoss58]

True, Shasta, I had an elderly friend who lost a foot after burning it with hot water in the tub..he couldnt feel it too well and scalded it by turning the heat up too high..

It eventually took his entire foot due to his diabetes..he lived on though, quite ok with a bit of help...until he passed a few years back.

Another off topic fact about him was he was a victim of either MK Ultra or some other test entity when in the Army..remember him from the Token when we talked about him? Frank McGavock?

He was a great man, who gave all for his country and I will never forget him. He is sorely missed.

John, you have many people here with your health in our hearts, you too are a special man like Frank and I personally wish you the best through your operation.

And if you take Hoss' advice, Remy Martin VSOP works good to make things feel better!;)

Be well, sir,

Dave

Hey Dave... I thought John's liquor of choice was Napoleon Brandy ? , or is that what you are referring to ? I don't know too much about that top shelf stuff . I lean more towards Kentucky bourbon myself, how 'bout you ?


I sure hope John doesn't have any complications on his foot surgery. I watched my Grandfather go through the same thing, he was a little older than John though.

Hey, Hoss, ironically as I type this Im toasting a rocks glass full of Bullet Trace.

Remy Martin is a fine cognac, sorta like brandy, a bit like brandy and really good scotch in one.

And for now, the toast is to John and his quick recovery!

Cheers, mate!

Remy Martin.  I have to remember that.  Maybe a bit at Samhein.  Celebrate the new year, the time of waiting for the Sun to be reborn at Yule.  The end of the month of sixty hour weeks.

I hope this helps with any skin condition anyone might have.

Recently I developed infection underneath my foot and couldnt work out how it developed because I didnt remember stepping on something I shouldnt.  Went to the doctors, he said it was cellulitis and gave me some antibiotics.

Wasnt really clearing on antibiotics.  But skywatcher, who is on here and also on another forum with me told me her daughter had cellulitis and she bought some Manuka honey - it has to be of 10 up to 25, not under that rating, so off I drove to the supermarket as we do not have any health shops in my semi rural area.

Found a small jar which was a 10, which was the highest I could get in my area and got home, soaked my foot, rubbed and rubbed this Manuka 10+ into it.

This morning when I looked there wasn't any more infection where there was before, so I washed it and rubbed more Manuka into it.

Skywatcher's daughter was treated for three days with this and it cleared up.

See if you can order some on the net John or maybe they have or can get some in that is higher than a 10 (not sure what that means but anyway) and soak and rub this in everyday and occlude it under a crepe bandage like I did.

It worked for skywatcher's daughter, is working for me, now try some for yourself.

Zorg see if you can bring this to John's attention please as it could really help him.

Your poor thing, sending big hug and speedy recovery.

Too bad you couldnt get out here, they would treat this in hospital without you having to pay hon.

[Shasta56]

Raw unpasteurized honey is a very potent antimicrobial.  It sounds like Joh'n infection is deeper than cellulitis, possibly into the underlying tissues.  Cellulitis can be a tough one on it's own. I've had a couple of times from cat bites and scratches.  I need to find some local honey to have on hand.  Thanks for the reminder.

Anything infection wise I would recommend MMS also. I have seen this work. I have a feeling Johns problem also is beyond this. If he can see bone he should be operated on pretty soon that can spread and gangrene. Also he may have Type 2 diabetes either way John you are in our prayers.  Maybe we can help John raise money for his Dr bills ??  Any ideas ?? 

[biggles]

I think it is shocking he is left in this condition and has to get the money first to be treated in hospital. 

My 89 year old mother just came out of a hospital just down the road from me.  She had a total knee replacement done by a specialist, was in hospital for a week and it cost her nothing.

Hello All,

I accidentally let an infection get away from me on my left foot and now I have to have 2 toes amputated in order to save my foot

In order to help cover the expense of the surgery I am going to offer my toes for sale or at auction on E-Bay.

I will have an autographed photo of myself on the jar.

If anybody has any ideas for size or type of jar or what kind of fluid to put in the jar to keep the toe fresh I would greatly apprecate it.

No date for the surgery is set yet as there are a couple of tests they have to do to confirm surgery is needed. The toe bone is already sticking out of the skin so there is not much chance of saving it.

All the best and thanks for your help,

John

Hello John,

Sorry to read that you will be losing a couple of little piggies. I hope the rest of you is in good health.

All the best,
