You look ridiculous!
I just had a Make-Over!
When did this become The Oprah Winfrey Show?
Since I revamped the make-up department
and brought in my own people.
You fired Ree-Ree DiNucci?
Is that the Ree-Ree DiNucci of the
famous South Philadelphia DiNucci's?
The very one!
Oops! Should I get her back?
I would.
I'll be right back!
Do we have a case this month????
Oh, yes, it's the case of my son's
facial tics.
Facial tics? Is that the best you could do?
Elaine, these are not ordinary facial
tics, you're going to love this case! Ahem! Here's the newest installment
of "Who's sick this month at kelly's house?"... a riveting
story of high drama and edge-of-your-seat excitment!! Hello????
I'm listening.....
My son, let's call him "U of
Em"...
Your son is a college?
Is there something wrong with that?
Anyway, he had developed what appeared to be facial tics and some
strange mannerisms. I noticed he was clearing his throat often and
between throat clears was blinking his eyes several times very rapidly.
He was not aware of what he was doing, and when asked he would say
nothing was wrong! He would also open his mouth wide and sort of
"stretch out" the area below his nose. These movements
were repetative and would continue for several minutes at a time.
Sounds charming!
He had also been soooo sensitive,
irritable and grumpy-not his usual self at all. We recently decided
to sell our house, which, of course, would mean many changes for
the children. Elaine suggested giving --------- 30C, which I gave.
His mood improved immediately, the
grumpiness being the first to go; the over-sensitivity much-improved
by the next day. The blinking and stretching just sort of "faded"
to the point that I forgot about it until they started up again
after 6 days. At that point I gave another dose. It's been 4 days
since then and all symptoms have improved. There was never a relapse
of the mentals. I did notice one episode of face-stretching today
but throat clearing is gone and the rapid eye blinking is almost
gone. I plan to re-dose if the symptoms return or increase.
So, how's that for entertainment,
Elaine? Elaine? Elaine, wake up!
Don't shoot! Oh, it's only you.
