Re: President of SDSM&T dies

I just started chemotherapy and will undergo 5 more treatments at 3 week intervals lasting into Jan or Feb 2013. I have no idea of what complications played a part in Dr. Wharton's demise, but I have been warned of many side affects from Chemo treatments such as loss of hair and infections. Its unfortunate that this happened. No doubt an active man, and a loss to South Dakota.

I understand the President Wharton had been battling some respiratory issues earlier this summer. I was very surprised by this news. He was a very nice man, and my sympathies go out to his family and to the SDSM&T community.

This is interesting. What I noticed about his write up is that he had degrees in botany, but was a big push in research funding something badly need at Mines now with the undergroud research going on. He is going to be hard to replace.

Thanks 89 I appreciate all those concerns and prayers. In situation like this you find who your friends are and am finding how that I had more friends than what I was a aware of. I have a form of lymphoma which the Avera Onuculogist is firm in believing that it can be cured in six treatments. I hope I havent turned this thread into about me, its about Presient Wharton after all.

Nidaros, heres hoping for a speedy recovery, If you haven't heard about it try taking Turmeric supplements or the actual root itself in food and drink. its related to the ginger family and is used in Southeast Asian and Indian cooking like in currys. I have read about it and am taking if for joint pain. supposed to be an anti-carcinogen, anti inflammatant, and used to treat just about everything. read about it and decide. it also said that it lessens the ill effects of chemo.

Thanks at one time it was often a decision where to go on Saturday night, Volga or Sinai?. We lived in between those two towns. My dad did not want us kids to see too many movies so Sinai often won out. Another time another era.

Did Volga have a movie theater? If so I don't remember it, I lived on the Dutch side so movies were not big in my area either, at least among our parents.

Has it helped with your joint pain?

Re: President of SDSM&T dies

Has it helped with your joint pain?

just started taking it yesterday so results are not available yet. also started taking glucosemine and chondroiten which is starting to help. a wife's friend into holistic medicine swears by the turmeric though. and I'll try anything to get rid of the knee pain. for temporary relief liquid lavender extract rubbbed into the affected area really works.
