New Photos from RJ

Hi everyone,   Here are a couple of photos from RJ. His comments:   ...here are a couple of me, one with the dragon do-rag and one without. Liese Corrigan is coming by this afternoon to take some pics, and I'm pretty sure there will be something better among them. Ugly customer, isn't he!       Personally, I don't think it's THAT bad. The new look reminds me of somebody, but I can't quite put my finger on it. (Maybe James Cromwell)? Hmm. Maybe not. It'll come to me l

A message from Wilson

Hi everyone,   Jason here again. RJ asked me to post this message from his cousin Wilson. To give you some context, read over the previous few blog entries.   Enjoy. And thanks, Wilson!     To those of you that have said nice things about my small show of support for my brother-cousin, thank you. He's what this is about however. To Nynaeve, you were absolutely spot on. He would have done the same to support me were the tables reversed.   I have read all your comments and well

I ESCAPED

I should have a long list of thank-yous for folks who made donations to the Mayo in my name, but that will have to wait until next time because I left the pages with the laptop. I'm sending Jason something to post, either here on the blog or elsewhere. It's from my brother/cousin Wilson. I thought a long time before deciding to include it. It's awfully laudatory. Besides, you don't think he writes stuff like that for free, do you? I made it out in record time, and would have made i

DM temporary website downtime: May 6

Hi everyone. This is just a quick notice to let you all know that on Saturday, May 6th (this coming Saturday), Dragonmount.com will be offline for a few hours. I need to take the server offline to install a new rear fan into it. Everything is running great, but the fan is not doing too well and I'd like to replace it. I will also use that time to do some system-level adjustments to further improve the stability and speed of the server.   Thank you to everyone for your visiting the site. If

Pictures of Wilson from RJ

Hi everyone,   Jason here. RJ asked that I post the following pictures of his cousin Wilson. (See his other blog post to see what he was talking about) Here's the note he sent along with the photos:   Here are a couple of pictures of my Cousin Wilson which I would appreciate you posting. He is as close to me as a brother, and in fact has always been called the fourth of the three Rigney brothers. He is also the first to come through with the promise to shave his head when my hair fell

ONE MORE TIME FROM THE TOP

Okay, guys. This will be another short one. I don't have a lot of energy right now. But I want you to know I'm still kicking. First off, a few thank yous. The Mayo Clinic -- Amyloidosis Research Program has acknowledged receipt of donations in my honor from Mr. Kevin Woulfe, Mr. Richard Maxton, Mr. Noam Krendel, Dr. Robert Kluttz, and Mr. Chris Peterson. My deepest thanks, and to you in particular, Bob. The good news is my numbers are climbing. Five days ago I hit bottom, the nad

A VERY BRIEF ADDITION

Well, the appetite is beginning to slip, and last night was miserable. I wasn't sick, per se, but I felt as if I were about to become sick shortly and I couldn't sleep worth a damn. Oh, well. I'm still doing pretty well. I managed a good (if bland) supper last night and a decent breakfast this morning. I am beginning to look around for any possible sources of calories I can get down for the future. That does mean anything, dark chocolate bars, ice cream, peanut M&Ms, anything. I'm not

A LITTLE MORE

I received some additional acknowledgments from the Mayo of people who have sent money in honor of James O. Rigney, so here goes. My deepest thanks to Mr. Michael Nemeth, Mr. Ryan Tibbetts, Mr. Steven Odden and Mr. Spencer Martin. I really can't say how much this means to me. One thing I should point out is that won't receive an acknowledgement, and you won't get one either, not from me, if you send money in honor of Robert Jordan. Their patient is James O. Rigney, and they don't have a

MORE THANKS YOUS

I've received some further acknowledgements of donations to the Mayo Amyloidosis Research in my name, and I'd just like to thank Ms Joanna Stampfel, Ms Lelon White, Mr. Ryan Kelly, Gospodin Dzmitry Ludzik, Mr. Steven Rowell, and Ms. Krisztina Radnoti. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. Also, many thanks to all of you who have posted about your own experiences with severe illness and chemo. Chemo treatments are all different, but I appreciate your posts. You are all fighters, or you

Photos from RJ

Hi everyone -- No, this is not Robert Jordan writing. I am invading his blog in order to upload some pictures that he asked me to pass along. I've not quite figured out a way to have him post this many pictures directly to his blog. Here they are: the eagerly-awaited before and after pictures. Click each image to see the larger version. The first batch of pictures he sent along were all of the "Before" pictures (with hair). In reference to those Before pics, RJ wrote the following:

A SMALL EXTRA

I just got some mail from Brad Condray and "all the Maniacs at wotmania," pages and pages of get well messages. And never a troll in the lot of them. Thanks, guys. I can't tell you what it means. Thanks a lot. RJ PS Had my first chemo this morning, and though they say the side effects won't kick in for a few days, I have to say, so far, so good. PPS I decided not to wait on my hair falling out in patches. First visit after leaving chemo was a barber shop where I told the m

THE NEWS FROM MAYO

A running commentary on the Mayo Clinic. I had intended to post before this, but it didn't work out. This began life as bits and pieces and notes I intended to use. It turned into something a little different. Sorry about that. I hope it's coherent.   The first week has been interesting. If you find needles interesting. There have been other sorts of tests – X-rays literally of every bone in my body; a pulmonary function test with me coughing all over the place and the tech sighing and s

Get Well Project for Robert Jordan

I am going to be attempting to put together an online "Get Well" Talent display for all members of Dragonmount. Anyone is welcome to participate, talented in your opinion or not, it's the thought that counts.   The idea is to create a webpage (several to be exact) that is dedicated to telling and showing RJ how much his world means to us and that we wish him well in his treatment and recovery periods.   If you write poetry feel free to submit something.   If you make graphics feel free to

A TOUCH OF THIS AND THAT BEFORE THE MAYO

First off, many, many thanks to all of you who have offered your prayers and/or good wishes. There are far too many of you, both here on the blog and elsewhere, for me to acknowledge you all individually, but believe me, you have my thanks.   I promised you some answers before I go off to Mayo, so I will give you some here. A few.   For Sidious, thanks very much for posting the overview of amyloidosis, but after conferring with my hematologist, I have to disagree with you on one point. Yo
