Dangers effexor, The past few days I have spent quite a bit of time with some old friends from our years in Africa. Even though we don't see each other often, we pick up the dialog at the point we left it off the last time we were together. That's the thing about life long friends ... they're comfortable. You can put them on like a comfy sweater and feel right at home.
My life has been enriched by many many friends, dangers effexor. One of my favorite things is meeting and getting to know new people and catching up with those Iv'e met before. I remember the first time Lynda's parents visited us in Africa. We were spending time in two countries. -- Kenya for a vacation and Sudan was our home. Dangers effexor, In Nairobi we would be wandering around town and invariably bump into someone I knew from somewhere. It got to be something of a joke and my father-in-law, Ray, started keeping track of how often it happened.
Ray figured I had met my match though the time we flew into Kapoeta, a small town in a remote part of Sudan and our ride to the village of Riwoto twelve miles away wasn't there. He reckoned we were stranded, how to clear the effexor haze. The plane left immediately and I left everyone else standing at the dirt airstrip while trying to figure out how to get out to the village. Kapoeta probably only had two or three working vehicles, dangers effexor. I wandered into the business district ... that's a block long dirt road with about eight shops on it. Desserted. As I walked along I heard a distant rumble of a Landrover. Dangers effexor, A few moments later it came into view and I flagged it down. The driver was from Juba 200 miles away, but I had met him there one time. For a five gallon jerry can of gas he was happy to cart us out to Riwoto. I remember Ray's look of surprise when we drove up to the airstrip and I yelled to everyone to climb in.
That was a great trip. We were visiting the Toposa langage group where we had lived and worked a few years previously, dangers effexor. We showed them the place where Pam and Erik nearly got swept away in a flash flood; showed them the thorns that Erik used to routinely step on and force through his flip flop into his foot; showed them the place where Pam had played in the mud wit the dishes they had given her ... dishes which got so stuck in the mud they were never retrieved. (Some archealogist is going to scratch his head over that one!)
We also got to introduce Ray and Louise to our Toposa friends, particularly my buddy Lochilade. Effexor or wellbutrin which works better, Toposas are very rugged and traditional cattle herders. Dangers effexor, They live simply. A chair is just a branch with three strategically pointing limbs that you balance on about six inches above the ground. Lochilade gave one to Louise to rest on. Before we had the chance to tell her there is a front and back to the stool, it was too late. She had sat on it backwards so that it had no rear facing support. Over she went .., dangers effexor. on her back with feet pointing skyward. Ray was using one of his newly acquired toys, a movie camera. He got the whole escapade on tape.
That was one of the last times I saw Lochilade. Dangers effexor, We met one more time about 2-3 years later when I stopped in the area as I was driving a car from Mombasa to Juba for one of our teams. Not too long after that the civil war got too close for comfort and we had to pull our folks out of the area. That was 20 years ago. If Lochilade survived the war, he probably didn't survive the endemic deseases or old age. Parts of the New Testament have been published in Toposa now, effexor savings. Too late for Lochilade, but hopefully in time for his children and grandchildren. One of these days I'll be walking in a new place, an eternal city. I'd sure love to run into Lochilade there like old friends on a Nairobi street.

Effexor effects, Just got the call that Lynda's mother had a significant stroke a few hours ago. She's in intensive care and is responding to medications, but it's still a pretty big deal. The next few days are going to be important. We're praying for her full recovery.
Louise has had a huge impact in our lives. To begin with, she didn't become "Mom" until Lynda's senior year of high school. But from that time on she's been "Mom" to Lynda and me and "Grandma" to our kids. She never looked back, treated all of us as if we were part of the biological family, effexor is it wellbrutrin, and loved us unconditionally.
When I think about the impact that Louise has had for Lynda, Effexor on nervous system, I am awesomely grateful. In a short space of time she taught Lynda all sort sof things about cooking, entertaining, family, and so much more that have been a bedrock part of Lynda's life and ministry in our home, effexor the antidepressant.
This morning I blogged about "He is risen!" I hope soon I'll be able to add "she is risen." We love you Mom and are praying for your recovery.

HE IS RISEN INDEED! Addiction effexor, I went to the Easter sunrise service this morning. Should have taken a jacket. It was cold ... relatively speaking for Florida. I had taken a stainless steel mug of tea with me and used it as a warmer by clutching it between my arm and body. About 150 of us sang songs and listened to the Gospel being preached. As Pastor Bates was sharing about the resurrection, effexor withrawal, Combination effects of concerta and effexor, the sun crested the over the trees and suddenly there was warmth on my face.
That little scenario played out in the Florida sunshine is analagous to every day of my life. My heart can be cold and hard .., safety of effexor while breastfeeding. until I turn to Jesus and let His love warm and soften those cold, hard places. Far too often I choose to remain shivering in the dark when light and warmth are on a turn away.

Effexor and bipolar, Yesterday the Personnel Section from work spent the morning in a team building event at Moss Park. What a great place. Lots of picnic and camp sites, clean choos (bathrooms for the Swahili challenged), a great playground area and tons of trees to provide shade. But beware of the squirrels and sand hill cranes.
Evidently people have fed them so often that they now feel that every picnic basket includes a portion for them to select at their pleasure. We had to station someone in the picnic shelter the whole time to keep the squirels and cranes at bay, effexor and bipolar. They have become quite assertive, especially the male sandhill crane. He would walk right up, trying to force us of our food. It was like be on the receiving end of a avian charge.
Our family has had quite a few experiences with animals that wanted to get closer to us. Effexor and bipolar, Like the time we were following a group of elephants in Maasai Mara in a VW bus. It was great ... until the male at the back of the herd decided that he was bigger than us and we needed to leave. He turned, flapped his ears, trumpeted and charged. Do you know how fast a VW bus can go in reverse -- faster than an elephant can charge.
Erik also found out that chasing elephants through the bush on foot is only fun for as long as you are facing their butts, effexor and bipolar. Several of us had gone to Mombasa to pick up three new Suzuki jeeps for our colleagues in Sudan. On the highway back to Nairobi we had to go right between the east and west sides of Tsavo National Park, a veritable elephant haven. As we were going along we saw a herd munching the scrubby bush about a hundred yards away. We all stopped and I stayed to guard the cars while Erik (age eight at the time) and the guys ran off to chase the elephants. Effexor and bipolar, All was bliss until a male about ten times their size realized that these guys were fleas compared to him. When he turned and trumpeted, effexor weight control, Erik and the guys proved that the cartoon characters are real ... you don't have to have your feet on the ground to run really fast.
Then there was the time that we were watching a rhino in the Nairobi National Park. There was a kid sitting on each of the window sills of the Landcruiser so they could get a better view into the grass. That was a great idea until the rhino decided he valued his privacy and wanted to let us know about it, effexor and bipolar. Out of the grass he burst a few dozen yards behind us determined to teach us a lesson. I think the lesson the kids learned was that you have to hang on really tight when Dad hits the gas to outrun a rhino.
Then there was Erik and the ostrich. We were out in the Nairobi Park again and Erik was practicing his driving. Effexor and bipolar, The Park was a great place to teach Pam, Erik and Amy to drive. Wide open spaces and the obstacles could move out of the way. The day was going well until Erik drove up on a mama ostrich protecting her brood of about 20 ten inch high ostrich babies. It's the first and only time I've ever seen an ostrich attack a car. Erik learned a unique lesson in defensive driving that day.
Then there's the baboons, effexor and bipolar. They're really nasty critters. Worse they are nasty critters who have really BIG teeth. There's a place where you can get out of the car and walk around an overlook of a gorge. The baboons have learned that hot and weary travellers leave their cars open. Effexor and bipolar, Maybe we are related to monkeys after all because they've also learned how to open a cooler and pick out fruit, sandwiches, soft drinks. The challenge is, "How do you get a baboon out of the car when he really likes it by the cooler?" Trying to tempt him out with an apple doesn't work, because he's sitting on the mother load (remember the cooler). I once watched a guy grab a baboon. I thought I was also going to see the guys arm bitten off. I learned at that time from an African safari guide that the way to dislodge the baboon is to simply threaten him with a stick or a rock. Don't actually hit him, effexor and bipolar. Just make him think you mean business and he jumps out. Effexor sex drive, Or maybe it was because he had already finished everything in the cooler and was looking for greener fields.
Being stalked by lions is another memorable event. We had gone camping out on he Sand River between Kenya and Tanzania with my mother, brother and his wife. Effexor and bipolar, While the ladies were cooking supper Glen, Pam, Erik, Amy (3 years old) and I went for a little walk. We got about half way up the hill when I noticed impalas running over the top of the hill. They were really running, not bouncing merrily along, which meant they were scared of something. Using my binoculars I saw a group of three lions stalking the impalas. Being a cautious kind of guy, I decided I better sweep the hill between us and those lions. Sure enough there were two more lions facing us with nothing between us and them, effexor and bipolar. They were crouched down like cats ready to spring on their prey. I told everyone to begin backing slowly down the hill. Under no circumstances were we to start running. That would have been disastruous because then those lions would have been on us like cats on a mouse. Effexor and bipolar, Those lions would have been having a hearty meal of Hersmans. Instead they had a human-free diet that night.
But of all the animals that we have been charged by, the one that still makes me sweat is the Cape Buffalo that tried to take out me and my friends, Denny and Dan. We had tracked that guy for a couple hours on a hot morning in southern Sudan. Finally we spotted him 100 yards away across a grass clearing. Wounded buffalos have a reputation for charging and maiming unprepared hunters, effexor and bipolar. We ad made sure that we had each chosen a place we could climb for safety if needed. Each of us took aim and shot simultaneously. Unfortunately Dan's gun jammed, but Denny and I both hit him, alternatives to effexor. Sure enough, as soon as we hit him, he reared up in the air and came down charging. Effexor and bipolar, Denny and I made it to our trees and looked back to see the wounded buff bearing down on Dan who was still trying to get his gun unjammed. Thirty-five ards from Dan the buff fell in death. At that point Dan's gun started to work again and Dan dutifully unloaded his breech into the jaw of the fallen buffalo. Sure glad he ran out of life before he ran out of space to Dan.
Comparing the squirrels and cranes to the animals we've encountered in Africa, makes yesterday seem pretty lame ... but you had to be there to see the killer glint in those squirrels eyes.

How To Discontinue Effexor
0 Comments Published by russ April 12th, 2006 in Africa, Family, Fun Stuff
How to discontinue effexor, Last Saturday we had a Fun Fest for the children at our church (University Presbyterian Church, Orlando). The main event for the kids was the Egg Hunt. They were divided up according to age and egg hunt ability and sent to various places on the property. I wonder if the fourth and fifth graders ever learned about the three foot snake we scared away while hiding the eggs in their area.
My favorite group is the twos and threes. Basically their eggs are just scattered on the ground for them to see and pick up. The amazing thing is that a two year old can walk right up to a brilliantly colored egg and not see it.
When our kids were growing up we had world championship egg hunts. Depending upon the weather and where in Africa we were at the time, the egg hunt might be outside in 115 degree blistering heat or confined to our living and dining room. As the kids got older and increased in their egg tracking skills, the degree of difficulty of hiding places increased commensurately. No place was considered too hard or out of bounds .., effexor and adderrall. whether it was down an aardvark hole, in a seemingly sealed container or behind a light fixture screwed to the wall.
After a few years of these Egg Hunt Olympics I learned an important lesson ... Effexor absorption post gastric, always write down where you hide the eggs. If the kids didn't find them all and if I couldn't remember where I hid them (not an uncommon occurence), then we were in for an unpleasant event a few weeks/months down the road. Eventually the growing putrification of the egg would make itself completely known. Even someone that was deaf, dumb, blind and totally incapacitated would be able to find that egg as long as they had any use of their olfactory senses.
These days our egg hunts are back to scattered on the grass for the grandkids. But in the high heat and humidity of Florida, effexor and drug class, keeping a diagram of the hidden eggs is still a desirable strategy. Otherwise in a matter of days, the last one found will be a rotten egg.

Alcoholism result of effexor, I'm still reflecting on when our kids were small and some of the joys they brought into our lives in those early days. Although much of their lives were spent in Africa, that is not the only "exotic" place of their formative years. We had the privilege of living for five months in the state of Chiapas in Southern Mexico among the Tzeltal Indians as part of our preparation for overseas living. Pam was three and Erik was 14 months when we got there.
Pam and Erik were our passport to an immigration and customs easy border crossing at Nueva Laredo. Erik's nickname among our friends was The Michelin Man ... he was so chubby he had rolls on his arms and legs. He wasn't walking yet, so had to be carried everywhere. We had to spend about five hours waiting for a train in the Nueva Laredo station, during which time Pam and Erik made the rounds of all the customs and immigration officials. Pam was terminally cute and Erik was "muy gordo." The officials loved them, so by the time we had to clear the official procedures, detox from effexor xr, they just waved us through.
While the rest of us lost weight living in the rain forests of Chiapas, Erik gained weight. This was accomplished through the help of the other children that shared the morning day care with him. They soon discovered that Erik would eat anything fed to him on a spoon. Most of the structures had dirt floors, so the other kids realized they had a steady source of "nutrition" for Erik as long as they scraped the floor up on a spoon. One wonders how many zillions of the microscopic community of Mexico he ingested. Effexor and lawsuit and generic, A couple times a week Lynda and I would head out on a 45 minute trek to a nearby village to meet with a couple who were helping us learn to speak Tzeltal. It was across the river, so we'd plunk the kids down into this long mahogany dug out canoe and pole ourselves across the river and then head up into the hills. Both Pam and Erik were instant hits with our host family. Wanting to have a treat for them, the wife would make some fresh handmade torillas on our arrival. Nothing is quiet as good as a real fresh torilla.
Unfortunately Erik was still not walking and the trek was too far for Pam, so both Lynda and I got to carry one each the entire distance there and back. We developed strong shoulder and neck muscles. Even though Pam was 20 months older, they weighed the same .., sudden weight loss stopping effexor. amazing what a steady diet of dirt will do for a boy.

Effexor xr connective tissue effects, So we celebrated Meredith's birthday today. It was a great morning of bubbles, gifts, bubbles, cake, bubbles, family, bubbles, friends, bubbles. Did I mention bubbles featured in the party? There was everything from the individual bubble bottles and blowers to the communal bubble pot (kind of like an Akamba elder's beer pot) to the high tech turbo bubble blaster. Enough for everyone. Thanks to excellent planning by Rinnie and others, we didn't run out ... not even with 8 children three years old and below (plus a bunch of older "children"). As I looked around the party at my family, it took me back to three other 2nd birthday parties.
One took place in Tacoma, Washington in 1976. We didn't know a whole bunch of families with small children, so the party was pretty much Lynda, me, Erik (all four months of him) and the birthday girl Pam along with Grandma and Grandpa John. It was January, but I recall Pam riding her "bithie" (that's horse in Pamese) in Grandma's backyard. I think that was the year she got her Steif teddy bear from Grandma and Grandpa Hayes ... a tradition that carried on for the other two as well. Those teddy bears are still a part of the family, albeit a little dog chewed here and there. Actually Erik's is the most worn from years of being loved.
Speaking of Erik, his second birthday would have been in Dallas, long term usage of effexor, Texas at the SIL Center. We had moved there to complete our linguistic training and made friends with the Klump family (Teresa, Teddy and Kevin were the kids friends). Classes had started so Erik got to spend his birthday morning in the childcare on center. We would pick him up for lunch and go to the dining room where he would eat in his sleep. No kidding. His eyes were closed, his head was banging about from side to side, but his hand was still tracking from plate to mouth ... a skill that prepared him for his four years in the Marines.
Our final second birthday was in 1985 in Nairobi, Kenya. We had been living on the BTL Centre, but moved off into our own house on Kiambere Road just before Amy's birthday. So we had our own backyard and Amy could have a select group of kids over without her party being plundered by all the other kids on the center. Center life had its advantages, but privacy was not one of them! I don't think we had built the tree fort by then or hung the tire swing, Does effexor increase alcohol abuse, but both of those places were favorites for Amy. She especially liked using the tire swing as a bludgeon to smack her older brother with. After one of those bludgeonings, I can still hear Jedidah calling to Mom, "Don't beat her, Mama. Don't beat her!" Of course there were no beatings, unless, of course, you want to talk about the wooden spoon ... but that's another story.
So now those two year olds are 32, 30 and 23--all grown up and adult-like ... but they still love to blow bubbles with the best of the other two year olds. And I'm still glad to be a part of the party, effexor and high blood cholestrol.
