--inert-gas surgical atmospheric benefits( cancer removal)--

--i have been rolling this one around a looong time--

an epiphany--

   i am totally "talking out of my back-side" on this one...possibly requiring a "verbal-proctologist", or other specialist, in the field of "B.S.", to intervene...or, i could be right...
i have no idea--



  the skinny--

   cancer requires oxygen to grow( like all things in nature...both large, and small), and unfortunately, a large amount of "o2" gets introduced into the abdomen during a cancer operation, this remaining "o2"( in the abdomen, post-op), is then absorbed by the body( good)...and also by any remaining cancer cells( not so good), if this is the case( and some/any cancer remains), the cancer growth-cycle continues, rapidly...

conclusion--

   i suggest, that if the atmosphere the operation is preformed in, is an environment that has no "o2"...but instead is comprised of helium, argon, or another inert gas( the least expensive type available)...no further cancer growth will likely occur...due to there being no "o2"( nature's building-blocks), present in the abdomen, effectively maintaining the body's "vacuum", or lack of oxygen, within the "thoracic cavity"--

affordable application--

  a device to make this concept affordable( a simple inflatable clear plastic chamber, similar to a baby's incubator, with a hole in the bottom), that is fixed/glued/taped to the patient( via an adhesive), with hand-portals to reach the surgical implements on a tray inside( to perform the operation), while the chamber is pressurized with an inert gas...is...

note--

  --i feel that this B.S., is good B.S., to speak to a doctor about, as a joke, or something to make conversation, and nothing more--

--verbal dyslexia( and it's potential remedies)--

    i noticed a person speaking to someone at work the other day, that
was having trouble with speech, i had a few moments to make observations,
and drew some conclusions, about the person's wellness, and possible
future...here goes--


observations--

   after the person left, others mentioned that they thought the lady was
brain-damaged( and that speaking to her was great, but patience was
needed, as the conversation takes awhile, due to her ailment)--

   i felt that she was not brain-damaged, but was in fact, experiencing a type of
"verbal-dyslexia"...she kept stopping her speech, and "catching herself", before
saying the wrong word...after listening more carefully, i began to believe that the
woman was saying the words in the sentence she was trying to convey, inverted...
every-so-often, like individuals with dyslexia do, when they read, or write--

an epiphany--

  for this reason, i am suggesting, that extreme dyslexia, can present it's-self in
a person's speech-patterns( if the lady in question was indeed brain-damaged,
i feel she would not be "catching-herself" saying the wrong word, but would
instead be oblivious to the error, and would not attempt a correction)--

  this also leads me to believe, that a great many people with strokes, and other
brain injuries, that inhibit "quality speech-patterns", are, very much, "all-there"(mentally),
but are unable to convey the thoughts they have to others, properly( this lady
seemed quite sharp)--

conclusion--

  what to do??...i feel that it may be of use for this person to seek-out a speech
therapist, where specific exercises could be learned, to "rehab" word selection,
and delivery, from the speakers vocabulary...perhaps, by having the subject
sing "happy-birthday"( a song held in most peoples long-term memory), while
the person was reading the words( on a chalk-board in front of them, or other form of
media), would be a good exercise...as this utilizes the "visual", or "reading-portion",
of the brain, thereby improving word selection, via "locking-in", good "word selection
tendencies", in the person's speech-patterns( using methods currently in practice for
combating dyslexia in reading and writing)--

verbal exercise #1--

   expanding on the concept mentioned above, the practice of having a patient singing
along with a song that the person "knows-by-heart", while the subject reads the lyrics
off of a tv-screen( i suggest utilizing the old bouncing ball, that lands on each word in the
song...a thing some of us "older-folks" may remember from childhood), may work better
than a chalk-board, for younger people( as video is a much more familiar medium for those born
after the "tele-tubbies" were first broadcast)--

verbal exercise #2--

   i feel a person with dyslexia/speech dyslexia, might be able to do rehab at home, via
reading a book out-loud to their "significant-other", as a means of practicing "good
word-selection"...to enhance both vocabulary, and speech-quality, at the same time...
( eventually reducing/eliminating verbal stuttering)--

 personal note--

  verbal exercise #2 , may also induce a response from the listener, that the other
"significant-other"( the speaker), might enjoy...  :o)

  --speak to your doctor about this idea's wisdom, and potential merits( if any), before deploying it--
