Please let me help if you have any pediatric issues!

livi · 11-03-2006, 11:08 AM

After almost two years on this fantastic forum I want to express my gratitude the only way I can. I feel almost silly, but I have to admit I get withdrawal symptoms if I can´t get to a computer every day. Just to check in to see what´s new and how the current threads are coming along. The generous help and hands on advice spread around this forum is down right heart warming. I have in a short time learned so much about Porsche´s and I have done upgrades and service items myself that I never would believe I was capable of. And it´s all thanks to you!

But that´s only part of the membership reward. The long distance friendship, support and company is invaluable. Many of you I feel I almost know.

Anyway, I feel a strong urge wanting to be able to give something back if possible. And the only thing I can truthfully say I know something about is pediatrics.

So, please, if any of you have any pediatric issues you want to ask about or discuss - PM me. I will be more than happy to assist if I can. Regard it as a long distance, anonymous second opinion. Sometimes I don´t have access to a computer, in which case it may take a few days for me to answer.

Please just ignore this post if you feel it is inappropriate or otherwise ill advised. It´s just that I can´t think of any other way to contribute.

can you do anything about the childish behavior on this forum? it could become epidemic!

Jim Richards · 11-03-2006, 11:13 AM

LOL!

Actually, that's a very kind offer you made, Markus. I can't benefit from it, though others with children at home might.

Joeaksa · 11-03-2006, 11:29 AM

Marcus,

You can help us in one way. How are things going with you? Did you ever settle things with the Mother and I hope that you have full custody of your children?

Thanks Markus, you've helped me before and I thank you greatly. My kids are great right now so no questions there. But......I do have this thing between my legs that looks like a four year olds arm holding a softball.

Markus,

My kids'll keep you so busy you'll soon regret your generosity.

You can always start by getting your a$$ out to America and we can fly to where you come (Chicago's always nice

) and we have a big party.

Well I have a sore spot on my left foot. (You did say podiatry right?)

Thanks, with a 2 year old it's always nice to get an outside opinion!

Actually I might be a better choice on that one

Heel pain, right? Bottom of the foot, worst on getting up in the morning, generally not too bad by the time you get done brushing your teeth...JK

Sorry, I get that a lot, people always taking off their shoes, makes me glad I am not a proctologist or gyno.

or are you JK about the sore spot on the foot...

Markus, hope life is good and you are playing with your kid more than you are fighting with the ex

Joe,

It has worked out very nice. Joint custody and a strong will from both of us to cooperate in the best interest of our daughter. It is another full time job of course, with so many kids in two different places. But I can rest when I get old, as long as everybody is happy. Thanks for asking!

len,

Thus equipped I would look into the movie business for some really big salary checks.

CC,

I would have to bring the kids, so we can always party at MacDonald's.

flatbutt,

Thats an epidemic I rather enjoy in reasonable portions.

Tobra,

Life IS good and I play more at forty than when I was a kid.

Jim,

Thanks for the kind response. Sometimes I wish my kids had grown up and moved out. At least for an hour or so..

cstreit and stomachmonkey,

Bring them on!

First I thought it said geriatric and I thought great for me, just had one of those milestone birthdays...then I saw podiatrist and I thougt great for me, my 2 year anniversary of tearing up my plantar fascia is coming up and my foot still freaking hurts....

Then I look closer and it's pediatrics, and I thought, great for me. Now post your address and I'll fly my 12 year old son to you. I tell him the reason my foot still hurts is because I have to kick him in the a$$ to do anything.

Just kidding (well kind of). I always appreciate your style, wit, humor, gratitude and intelligence in your posts.

Thanks for the offer Markus.

Hell, let's take the party to him.

Markus, you're a giant amongst men.

Markus, dunno if you have any experience with this
but lately the shift of 7 year olds in my sweat shop have been performing a bit sluggish... would ADD pills help or not ?
do you know any uppers that might help them do a 14 hour shift instead of 12??any idea?

livi · 11-04-2006, 10:51 AM

I am overwhelmed!

Thank you so much for your kind words!

Ahh...Stijn, let me get back to you. I think I have what you are looking for down in the basement. Not legal anymore.

the good stuff never is... it just never is...
never stopped me though...rules are meant to be broken

livi · 11-04-2006, 10:59 AM

In practice, it´s not illegal until one is caught..

Markus is about as good as they come, he was a really blessing when I was going through some very troubling times. Your opinions on this site and constant affirmations for the hard work on projects is more than enough!

livi · 11-05-2006, 12:40 AM

Hey Matt!

Thanks for your very kind words!

Seems I havn´t seen you around much lately - or have we just roamed different threads ?

Everything OK with you ?

Actually, that's not a bad idea......

Never been to Sweden. You guys would love it too...with all the hot Swedish girls and all.......

We'd probably get 3 people total in the end, but we could get something together... Can I take mom? LOL. Maybe I can find someone to stay with her.....

Edit: BTW, nothing to do with you personally Livi...it's the distance..... That sounded bad initially and that was not my intention...
