Thank you, Lainey and Marion, for your kind welcome. I am a bit concerned about using the sugar; Siggi is diabetic and in addition, I think I would need to check that one out with his Oncologist since at this point I still know so little about pancreatic cancer and what would be good and not good. Probably anything he can tolerate. The pineapple juice did work well. He got the hiccups back a little bit this morning, but I haven’t heard anything nw in about an hour. He is ornery, though, and I do not want to get ornery
Lainey – you and Ted were truly blessed that your blended family actually was one. My father’s 2nd wife and her family, for reasons I never could quite understand other than perhaps we aren’t in their “league” (social and economic standing), had no interest in being a family. My father and they were all quite close; just didn’t spill over. I feel horrid that when I heard she had passed away this past summer (my father left us January 2007) in a very round about way, my first call to my sister was “Ding Dong the Witch is Dead”. SSSSSOOOOO not like what you and Ted had and I just think that is grand!!
Have a Blessed day!
Thank you Janet (Cinnamin) for the pineapple juice suggestion. My significant other has had the hiccups for going on four days; I googled Gemzar and hiccups and found this site. Anyway, the pharmacist said to take some Benadryl. He took it and fell asleep but was hiccupping something like every 4 seconds! I woke him up to drink the juice about 45 minutes ago – he hasn’t had even ONE hiccup since he drank it and is now able to sleep peacefully. (I’m going to CVS tomorrow to get some Brioschi, too for backup. It’s listed on their website, so they must still be making it).
Thanks again,
JanetLainey,
I actually came upon this site and you because my significant other has been experiencing horrible hiccups and after traditional cure methods didn’t work, I googled Gemzar and hiccups. I saw some of your Thanksiving postings and kind of fell iin love with you and your attitude. I am so sorry for the loss of your loving and loved Ted and hope for your own healing and peace. I think you two had a wonderful and loving life together.I am so glad, too, that Ted found a way to visit you and to make contact. I pray that I will not be soon looking at that aspect in my SO’s and my life together but reading about people like you makes me have something more to hold on to. May peace be with you.
