Prayer and well wishes requested for Andy!!!

[John Miliunas]

Hey folks, I once again come to you with yet another prayer and/or well wishes request. Just got a phone call from Andy Hoyt. I don't have many details but, he was calling from his cell phone while freezing outside the door of the hospital! :( I guess it's diabetes related, following an "episode" and they're doing and/or waiting on numerous test results. With it being a Holiday weekend, he expects to be there for some time. :(

Whether it's prayers, well wishes or both, please keep Andy in mind. He's always been one of our foremost team players here at the Creek! Thanks much, gang. If I should hear anything else, I'll keep you posted.:) :cool:

[Pete Jordan]

Andy, Get well!

[Keith Burns]

Andy, my friend, you are in our prayers as well. Didn't know you were diabetic. I've had it for 40 years so I know it can be difficult. The main thing is to do what the doctor tells you to do !! (I know that can be hard for you to do). PM me if I can be of help.

[Ron Jones near Indy]

Prayer done. Hang in there Andy. You belong in the Creek, not the hospital. Thanks John.

john

[Jim Dunn]

I thought Andy was traveling this holiday. Sorry to here about your troubles Andy a prayer is said and said again. Hope we both on the right side to be making and accepting em:)

Hope your feeling better real soon. Drink lots of Moxie and eat some real good icecream.

Jim

[Brad Kimbrell]

Andy,

I didn't know that you were diabetic too. I've been so for 20 years now and have just begun to take better care of myself - stubborn ain't the word, so my wife says!

I've seen pics of you and you don't even seem to be overweight (like me).

Godspeed to your recovery, whatever the complication. I'll remember you in my prayers and have a good thought for you and yours.

[Fred LeBail]

Best wishes Andy, probably just a little too much of the ol' Moxie !!!

[Joe Mioux]

It is all that damn ice cream's fault that you have been eating!

Take care and, Andy, I hope you have a speedy recovery!

Best Wishes
Joe

[Bob Noles]

Andy,

Prayers sent up and my thoughts directed to a fast healing. Hurry up and get yourself well and back to leading this crazy bunch of turners.

If you need anything, I think you know we are here for you just as you have been here for us so long.

[Curt Fuller]

I wondered where Andy had been hiding. I've missed his wit, wisdom, and Andyisms. Hope all goes well my friend. We're pulling for you!

Man, how would you like to be Andy's nurse!:eek: :eek: :eek: !

[Gary Herrmann]

Keeping you in my thoughts, Andy. Best wishes.

[Steve Clardy]

Andy.

Hang in there and get well soon!!

[Jim Becker]

Hang in there, Andy!!

Thanks for letting us know, John.

[Ron Journeau]

Thanks John for passing along the word. The Creek is like a home for many of us, and everyones favorite uncle is in the hospital. The power of prayer is mighty, and I add mine to all the others. Feel the love, Andy, and get well soon,friend.

[Lee DeRaud]

Man, how would you like to be Andy's nurse!:eek: :eek: :eek: !How would you like to be the doctor that has to tell him to cut way back on his Moxie intake?!? :eek: :eek: :eek:

Get well soon, dude. :cool:

[Syd Lorandeau]

Hi Andy,
I told you that you have to take a break from the shop every now and then but you just do not listen. Get well soon as we can not have the Creek dry up.
Syd

[Earl Reid]

Hang in there Andy, our prayer are with you

Barbara and Earl

[Bruce Page]

Get well Andy!

[Brian McInturff]

Must've ran out of Moxie and Ice Cream. Our prayers from the beach and Loretta said you better get to stompin around. Godspeed. Brian

[David Fried]

You better get well Andy, it's so hard breaking in moderators! Besides, you are missed. My thoughts are with you.

[Dave Fifield]

Man....."diabetes related"......that could mean anything from hypo to hyper (a simple low or high blood glucose episode) to something VERY serious (eye problems right up to and including organ failure or gangrene leading to amputation :eek: !).

Andy - I'm creekin' (mods - is this word ok? delete if not please!) worried.... please tell us it's one of the simpler complications! My thoughts are with you as a fellow sufferer (type 2 in reasonable control for many years).

[Randy Moore]

Andy,

My prayers are coming your way Andy. Get back in the shop we need you HERE in
:)

[George Conklin]

I've missed his wit, wisdom, and Andyisms.:eek: :eek: :eek: !

Ya got that right, Curt.

Get well soon, Ange.

Hey Mods! Any updates???????????

[Lou Morrissette]

Hang in there, Andy. Thoughts and prayers from the Cape.

Lou

[Blake McCully]

Andy, dang it, get better. We miss you as everyone else said.

I didn't know you were a fromer Corpsman. Me too, since I was an 8404 I guess I can say, Semper Fi.

Get well bud.

[Paul Engle]

Hang in there Andy , we're pullin for ya, remember we all in this together :eek: :D .

[Jeremy Gibson]

Andy, you have my prayers and best wishes. You were very kind to call me a while back and talk about Maine and I'd like to meet you and shake your hand when we make a trip out that way. Hang in there!

[Bill Turpin]

There are many reasons why we diabetics call diabetes meillitis..... De Monster. It affects your total life. It is like having an evil twin brother that is always in the next room watching you. Our prayers are with you. :)

Bill in WNC mountains

[Mike Ramsey]

Hang in there Andy, I've been fighting it for many years. Hope
you get well soon.

[Dave Ray]

Get well soon Andy, we need your input on the creek. Constantly looking for your comments on all subjects. God bless

[Nancy Laird]

John, do we have any further word on Andy? I'd sure like to know if all is well with him.

Nancy

[Christopher Hunter]

Hope you return soon Andy....!!!
we are all thinking of you in here>>
--Chris

[John Miliunas]

John, do we have any further word on Andy? I'd sure like to know if all is well with him.

Nancy

Nancy, thanks for asking but, no more word on how he's doing. I've got a couple others keeping an ear out for him, as well but, nothing as of yet. I will be sure to post to this thread if/when I hear anything!!!

[Ken Fitzgerald]

I knew those Moxie floats couldn't be healthy!

You don't think that I'd have well wishes for the inmate who started the bombing run on me..................


Well I do! My thoughts and prayers Andy! Man .....this place just isn't the same without your wit!

[Keith Christopher]

My thoughts and prayers are there for you Andy !

[Joe Melton]

Andy, we're hopelessly adrift without your wise counsel! Joe

[David Fried]

Andy, we're hopelessly adrift without your wise counsel! Joe

You are so right. Things are way too normal.

I hope they have him hooked up to an IV full of dust and wood shavings so the withdrawl isn't too bad.

Somehow, I can picture Andy attempting to abbysserate all the nurses.
I'm trying not to picture Andy in a hospital gown :eek: though I can see him
taking one home thinking it would make a good turner's smock!

We're pulling for you old guy ;)

[Cecil Arnold]

Andy, hang in there guy, you're to ornery to let this get you down. Maybe you need less calories, you know, get off mayo and start using mustard.

[Don Orr]

...and hope things are on the way to resolving. Lots of positive energy heading your way Andy. The Creek just ain't flowin' as smoothly without your presence.

[Jean Holland]

I hope Andy is doing better. I know how it is to have something wrong and the doctors use you as a pin cushion. You are in my prayers.

[Mark Pruitt]

I just got off the phone with Andy. He has been through a few rough days. The diabetes is a new diagnosis and Andy is determined to take it on and do what he needs to do for the sake of his health. Today his wife and daughter are with him and he says he is doing much, much better than a few days ago.

Andy anticipates being discharged in a couple more days or so, and he is looking forward to getting back into the swing of things (pun intended). He is deeply grateful for the support that has been shown for him here. I told him that John M. started this thread and that so far there are about five pages of well wishes. I'll spare you his response.:p :p :p Suffice it to say, again, he is thankful for this bunch of folks. And BTW so am I.

[John Miliunas]

Thanks so very much for the update, Mark! :) OK, so it's a bummer about the diagnosis, however, if I know Andy like I know Andy then, he's going to attack the whole diabetes thing like he attacks a bottle of Moxie and all will be well! :D (Probably will have to cut back on the Moxie, though.:rolleyes: ) I'll be keeping him in my prayers throughout! :) And, I'd like to add my personal "Thanks!" to all who have been cheering him on and had him on their own prayer list! You Creekers are THE best! :) :cool:

[John Taylor]

Andy sorry to hear you are newly diagnosed but it is not the end of the world, even though it feels like it at times, I was diagnosed on the 6th November 2006 so have some idea of what you are going through now.

As they say welcome to the club no one wants to join, there is a lot of info out on the web, most of it good, to help you tame the beast a couple of good sites to start with are http://www.mendosa.com/ and some very good advice for us newbies can be found on http://jennifer.flyingrat.net/

Also the support of good friends is the most important thing and I know you will get plenty of that here at the creek.

john

[Dick Strauss]

Andy,
Try to take it all in stride. I'm sure you'll be back to normal in no time (assuming you're willing to follow a few orders). Don't let it slow you down.

Take care,
Dick

[John Miliunas]

Andy,
Try to take it all in stride. I'm sure you'll be back to normal in no time (assuming you're willing to follow a few orders). Don't let it slow you down.

Take care,
Dick

"Normal"??? Dick, we're talking about Hoyt here! Please, define "normal"! :D :cool:

[Jim Becker]

Thanks for the update, Mark! Having eaten ice cream with the man at his house this past summer, I know that he's exuberant about getting this behind him! He has a lot of "Moxie", as it were...and I don't mean that drinkin' stuff...

[Jim Dunn]

"Normal"??? Dick, we're talking about Hoyt here! Please, define "normal"! :D :cool:

My sentiments exactly:eek::rolleyes:

[Bernie Weishapl]

Yea but John is that not going to play havic with his moxie and ice cream?????:eek: :mad: :mad: Remember we are talking Hoyt here!!!!!!!!!!!

[Scott Donley]

It's a good thing they make Diet Moxie :D Get well Andy, your missed :p

[John Bailey]

Andy,

If you read this, and I bet you don't miss any of it, know that you can lead a normal life. I was diagnosed 6 yrs. ago, was almost put in the hospital with a 600 reading. I was determined to beat it. I weighed every gram of food I ate for 3 months to find out what affected me and what didn't. I changed my diet to strict vegetarian, continue to watch what I eat and excersize more. It took me 18 months, but I'm off all medication with no restrictions on what I eat. I go back to have tests done every 6 months. I've been in the normal range for 4 1/2 yrs. with no drugs. I've become a great cook, love what I eat and stay very active with outdoor activities.

You can do it too.

John

[John Shuk]

Andy,
Hope you're feeling better.

The devil that sat on my shoulder and got me started turning was diagnosed with diabetes over a year ago. He had a heart attack and became aware of the diabetes at the time. He had the attack on a Monday and we went to the Totally Turning symposium on Friday. He has his diabetes well under control and he is doing fine.

[John Hart]

It's good to hear that Mr. Hoyt is building up some spit-n-vinegar for his return. I'm relieved that you're going to be ok Andy!!!:)

[Pat Doble]

Hope all is well soon Andy. My prayers are with you.

[Curt Fuller]

Andy, never fear! Diet Moxie is here!

Glad to hear that things are looking up and you're feeling better.

[Dennis Peacock]

Andy,

Here's wishin the very best for ya and a very speedy recovery and hang in there buddy. We're all with ya. :D

[Sean Troy]

Any word on Andy?

[Mark Pruitt]

Any word on Andy?
Sean, see post #77 in this thread.

[Tyler Howell]

Got your back Buddy!!
Kick this one square.;)

[Dick Strauss]

Guys,
"Normal" is a relative term. You know...some of your relatives are normal and some are...well...not so normal!

You fill in the blank as to where Andy fits in this range!

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Guys,
"Normal" is a relative term. You know...some of your relatives are normal and some are...well...not so normal!

You fill in the blank as to where Andy fits in this range!

Dick.........are you talking about Andy under the influence of Moxie.....or not?.........I'm trying to see if this range is wide enough.......

[Zahid Naqvi]

Thanks for the update Mark, can't wait for Mr. Hoyt to get back in the folds of the creekers. I have a few family members and one close friend with diabetes, with carefull diet and an active lifestyle it can be handily managed. Sometimes we need a kick in our ar$* to remind us to take care of our bodies, Andy consider this diagnosis as one of those kicks :eek:

[Lee DeRaud]

Dick.........are you talking about Andy under the influence of Moxie.....or not?You're assuming we've ever witnessed him when he wasn't under the influence of Moxie. :eek: :p

[john whittaker]

Andy...You have been missed, prayed for, had creekers sending well wishes and even a few saying nice things about you. If that's not the start of a miracle....I don't know what is. Take care of yourself and get well.

[Andy Hoyt]

You guys rock, and so does the VA; and I truly love you all.

I'm safe, and at home.

First wise crack about tofu bowls and bean sprout hollow forms gets banned for life.

[Joe Mioux]

What's wrong with soybeans?

[Mark Cothren]

Andy is home... all is well with the world... well, with Maine, anyway... welcome home, Ang...

[Keith Burns]

TA-DA, YEAH TEAM, IT'S TIME TO SPIN AND GRIN. HE'S BACK:eek:

[John Miliunas]

Welcome Back, Andy!

You were greatly missed, as you can see by the responses. :) Now, just ease back into it and be sure you get proper rest and all that! Really, REALLY great having you back, my friend! :) :cool:

[Ernie Nyvall]

Glad you are home Andy. I hope you are doing well... I know the news of you being home has certainly made a bunch of people around here feel better.;)

[David Fried]

Now that my Moxie futures have rebounded, I hope you do the same Andy.
Welcome back!!! If you need anything just holler, I 'm just a right smart piece down the road.

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Well it's certainly good to see you posting my friend!

:)

[Curt Fuller]

WELCOME HOME ANDY!

We missed ya!

[Frank Chaffee]

First wise crack about tofu bowls and bean sprout hollow forms gets banned for life.
HAHAHAHA!
Well Minister Andy, I hope you blaze a clear trail thru the blood sugar jungle, ‘cus I’s barely a few steps behind you.
Lead on, McAndy!

[Barry Stratton]

He's BACK!!:D :D

Missed ya around here you old codger!!!!

Now get some rest, then turn a carrot.....:eek:

[Jonathon Spafford]

Hey, it is great to see ya back... I guess all our prayers were answered!!!

[Glenn Clabo]

I truly love you all.

Ah yes...the truth comes out. Beneath that kind and caring exteria...Andy is also sentimental.

Good to see you're home and you didn't take over the VA. Take care of yourself my friend...

[Ben Werner]

Welcome Back!!!!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D

[Jim Dunn]

Hi Hi Andy. (I had to add another "Hi as my message was to short, such is my lot in life):o

[Mark Pruitt]

Andy,
It's a true pleasure to see you back here again. You hang in there and I'm gonna try to do the same. Later....

[Dave Richards]

Good to know you're still kicking, Andy. I look forward to seeing more of you around here.

[Mike Ramsey]

Glad your home Andy! Get used to Sugar Free Butter Pecan....I did....

[Steve Schlumpf]

Welcome back Andy! Things just haven't been the same while you were away!

[Steve Clardy]

You guys rock, and so does the VA; and I truly love you all.

I'm safe, and at home.

First wise crack about tofu bowls and bean sprout hollow forms gets banned for life.



Crack. er ah. What was I gonna say:confused: ;)

Glad to see you back Andy. The Moxie stocks went downhill while you were out of service.:eek: ;) :D

[Nancy Laird]

Welcome back, Andy. I'm glad to see you didn't lose your sense of humor along with all the blood that the VA vampires took. It's good to have you back...I've missed you. Now, back to sugar-free ice cream and diet Moxie!

Yuk, that sounds awful!

Nancy

[Gary DeWitt]

Relieved and glad to have you back, Andy.
They have you looking at the glycemic index yet?
Diet stuff aint so bad. What was that saying from college? Better living through chemistry, ahem.

[Kurt Rosenzweig]

Welcome back Andy! Glad to hear your home!

[Tom Sherman]

Good to hear from you Ol Salt, look forward many more of those awsome projects.

[Ron Journeau]

Now this a is a great way to start a new year, having you home with the family and us having you here with us. Amazing when you think that so few of us have really met one another, yet are all friends and more. So glad to see you retained the curmudgeon gene, had us worried for a bit.

[Jerry Olexa]

Glad you're doing better, Andy.

[Christopher K. Hartley]

...First wise crack about tofu bowls and bean sprout hollow forms gets banned for life.Now, you know we'd never do that to you, but we do need to put you on a strict diet. Let's see, a regular intake of Spalted Hickory and maple burl chased with a moderate amount of Moxie, to make sure you get your vitamin needs fulfilled we prescribe some green ash, long leaf pine and Buckeye. A generous helping of segmented pecan and walnut for desert. If you're real good you can top it with some cherry. Finish things off with a bit more Moxie and if you stay on track you may even get a small scoop of special rainbow ice cream (sugarless) in your favorite Creek produced bowl. We'll look out for ya!:eek: :D :) Glad your back!! Now, get to work and get this place straightened up again!!:cool:

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Jerry and Christopher....buttering up to a moderator I see......:eek: :rolleyes: :D

[Christopher K. Hartley]

Jerry and Christopher....buttering up to a moderator I see......:eek: :rolleyes: :DDarn you Ken...he'd of never figured it out if ya hadn't told him! Tattle Tale!!:( :D :)

[Jim Dunn]

I don't know looks like they flattened his head out for some reason. Was it to pointy?

[Ken Fitzgerald]

I don't know looks like they flattened his head out for some reason. Was it to pointy?

Yup....too much time in the Abyss/vortex....:p

[Tom Sherman]

Andy, don't completely rule out Tofu and bean sprouts, Tofu is not too bad mixed in with some stirfry and sprouts can be a nice addition to a ham or turkey sandwich...and their good for you too.

[Andy Hoyt]

Once again - Creekers to the rescue. And once again, I'm ever grateful for that. So. What's up with Andy? Fair question, so here goes.

I've been home for two weeks now and physically, I feel fine. My feet hurt less now than they have in a long time and this is a huge improvement. But I'm having a hard time concentrating on stuff which explains why I've not been pounding out a whole lot of so-called "value added content" for the creek on my keyboard. The docs at the VA say this will clear up in another week or so; and I have my fingers crossed. Every day does seem to be better than the last one, though.

Equally bad is that since this happened I've not consumed a single cookie, one scrumpdillicious potato chip, one heavenly spoonful of ice cream, nor one sip of Moxie (the original nectar of the gods). This lack of Mental Health Food undoubtedly explains why I can't focus on stuff for more than a few minutes. Might also have something to do with the new holes I had to punch in my belt!

But I am reading and keeping current. I see a number of new names (Addy, Wyko, Randall, Nelms, some Tibbetts guy, and many more) and wish to collectively welcome all of you. There has been lots of great stuff posted lately and while it's great fun to look at it all, it also hurts a bit because it reminds me that I haven't danced with Janine since Christmas Eve.

I've had a lot of PMs, emails, and phone calls from many of you; and I cannot properly express how meaningful that has been. Prior to typing this message, I just re-read this thread from the beginning. It choked me up to do so when I got home from the hostible and just has again. Suffice it to say, that once more, the Creek has transformed me.

Thanks ever so much. Andy

[John Hart]

....It choked me up to do so when I got home from the hostible and just has again. ....

I'm sorry...you misspelled a word. It's "horsepittle". Glad I could help.;)

[Jason Roehl]

If it makes you feel any better, Andy, my lips have never touched Moxie, but that's because I had never heard of it until you were around, and I've never seen it locally. I did do an I-net search and I could possibly get somewhere not too far, albeit inconveniently.

So, raising a (virtual) glass of Moxie to your mental fog clearing and to your improved and continually improving health!

[Mark Pruitt]

I understand why you would say this is "bad" Andy, but as "your chaplain" I also want to lift up what is "good" about this. By doing without these things for this amount of time you have proven beyond all doubt that you CAN do without them. That takes stones (the good kind) to do. The focus will come. This is your new way of life and it will be a great one as long as you have made up your mind that it will be.



There has been lots of great stuff posted lately and while it's great fun to look at it all, it also hurts a bit because it reminds me that I haven't danced with Janine since Christmas Eve.

I can empathize, as you know. I've been out of comission for what will be two weeks tomorrow and it sucks. For you it's been almost twice that, but, the good news is that there is light at the end of the tunnel for us both. The worst has come and gone and we are still here, and we are going to get better.

Hang in there!

[Skip Spaulding]

Hang in there Andy, need You to keep the Peace. Something tells me God has to keep an eye on anyone that drinks MOXIE! Skip

[Jim Dunn]

I don't know Andy I'm in a mental fog all the time and seem to do just fine.:o I'm sure glad your feeling better and that you'll soon be standing in your favorite place which is in your shop. Looking forward to all of your posts, both verbalish and pictorialish.:)

[Glenn Clabo]

Suffice it to say, that once more, the Creek has transformed me.
Thanks ever so much. Andy

Mr. Andrew Hoyt...
You believe what you want...but I believe that YOU "transformed" the Creek (and a few people directly I might add) much more than it has transformed you. Of course I won't accept your usual challenge to a Moxie float drink off...cuz I'd whoop your tired butt fur sure! Well...that's if it is of the diet kind off course.
