Smunshi

Hi, Smunshi! I saw your "Like" recently. How're you doing these days? Did you learn how to speak through that special method (I forgot what it's called). I hope you are much better than you seemed to be a year or so ago. Hugs, Carol

Thank you for best answer. I thought that you probably wanted to see how we disagree and what the guidelines are. Some sites are so picky. You can see that we are already off topic. I really didn't mean to do that to your question. Basically you can say what you want, and people will go off topic, like it and stay on subject, or disagree with anything and everything.

This site has strict censorship, The door thing that you turn to open the door---that is slang in England for a man's thing-so that word becomes stars because it's censored, but we get around that by writing door (k)nob or door k(nob).
Dates like 04/22/2016-05/20/16 should be redacted when you read this, because they don't want us to contact each other, but you can say 04/22/2016 to 05/22/2016. The soft ware reads dates and hyphens as a phone number. So we have to be careful when we say the sun will come up or a convention will happen between 04/22/2016 to 05/22/2016.

You can't even say my Persian kit(ty) cat ran away. We can say cat. So we try to be civil and the soft ware helps us to be better people.

Oh my, They allow hyphens now in dates. truely amazing. last month someone was complaining thet her treatment 03 day hyphen and end of treatment date was removed. I'll try door knob door (k)nob lets see what happens?

Smunshi, thank you for awarding my response "the best answer"!

I'm not sure if you have a question, but my mother had larnyx cancer 30 years ago. She had surgery, but no trach (except right after surgery, but was removed a couple of weeks later). She was able to talk and eat for the rest of her life, til the end when she was weak from having leukemia. But, her throat cancer never came back.
