Dingy - I'm seeing if I'm a match for someone.

 

[dingyibvs]

stoney is a peacock!

 

[lstone13]

ill let you think about that for a sec

😕

Hmmm, stoney is a tough one. Lynx, fox or bobcat?

lynx. 100%.

I approve of this. 👍

 

[jackson1]

What about me Jackster??

umm an alligator?

 

[dingyibvs]

stoney, you know, female dog....

plus i think peacock fits u the best, with the whole pageant thing 🙂

 

[RogueUnicorn]

ksmi is a lindsay lohan.

[dingyibvs]

umm an alligator?

Ohhh... Dingy! 😡 Hmph.

I mean, peacocks are fine and dandy, but I do like the lynx...

Dingy - I'm seeing if I'm a match for someone.

is that for blood donation? i assume ur the donator since drawing 10 tubes from you would be counterproductive otherwise....

 

[lstone13]

I like that one! We're talking about jackson, right?

That would be perfect for jackson!

 

[BBender716]

or you could pull a Kramer and just stock up, lol

 

[dingyibvs]

Ohhh... Dingy! 😡 Hmph.

I mean, peacocks are fine and dandy, but I do like the lynx...

lynxes are vicious, but then again its the male peacocks that have the huge ornate tails....

 

[dingyibvs]

yup jackson, the pouch starts it, and the bounciness seals the deal!

 

[Mandiblespeaks]

umm an alligator?

hmmmmmm. Snakes and alligators. What is this thread

 

[Sammich117]

Bone marrow

 

[BBender716]

welcome to the jungle.

 

[RogueUnicorn]

[Mandiblespeaks]

welcome to the jungle.

NOIIICEEE! The 2014 jungle.

 

[RunningDiva]

its sooo nice today and i am stuck inside. hmphhh. 😡

 

[BBender716]

😎

 

[Sammich117]

Haha then tell me what they're checking for now. Apparently I was a 6/6 initial match.

 

[lstone13]

Lynxes aren't vicious!!

hmmmmmm. Snakes and alligators. What is this thread

Looks like the Okeefenokee Swamp.

 

[RunningDiva]

ohhh are we choosing animals?? hmmm....

 

[Mandiblespeaks]

Hey Sammie can you believe this weather??

It was so nice all day and just now the flood gates opened! jeez.

 

[Sammich117]

Omg I know. I had to change into a t shirt earlier because it was so lovely but then I was just freezing and caught in the beginning of this storm on the way home.

 

[lstone13]

ohhh are we choosing animals?? hmmm....

More so, others are choosing animals for us!

 

[RunningDiva]

More so, others are choosing animals for us!

ohhhh me next, me next! pleaaazzeeee.

the 6 antigen match checks out the DR locus of MHC II and the B,A loci of MHC I. 6 because you have a copy from each parent, obviously. this is usually good enough for a solid organ transplant, but in bone marrow they do a FULL match of all MHC loci to minimize graft vs host disease where the donor lymphocytes attack the host. LOTS of tests... PCR, 1 way MLR, crossmatching, etc etc etc

yay i have finally managed to make SDN useful

If I didn't have my chick avatar what would I be?

 

[BBender716]

I'm back to the finch. Hard to find good close ups without a bunch of background.

 

[Mandiblespeaks]

Crazy. And I have to walk home from work today. lol T SHIRT ONLY woops..

 

[dingyibvs]

Bone marrow

ooo, ure donating bone marrow? heard it kinda hurts!

 

[lstone13]

'Tis time for me to leave work! Thank goodness. It's so pretty outside. I'm glad I'll get to enjoy at least a little bit of it before sunset!

Oh so the odds are still pretty small of me being a good enough match?

Though apparently I could give this kid my kidney.

 

[bobsmith]

ohhhh me next, me next! pleaaazzeeee.

cheetahs seem like they'd be running divas.

i don't know if that means that a running diva would be a cheetah, though

 

[lstone13]

If I didn't have my chick avatar what would I be?

Hmmm... I mean, I think the chick suits you well. But... If anything else... Perhaps, a bunny?

Oooo that's good. A cheetah seems appropriate for you RD.

 

[RogueUnicorn]

yea you still have to match in the DP, DQ, and C loci. marrow transplants now for the donor is essentially painless though. they just shoot you up with some factors to stimulate leukocyte progenitors and just collect it from your blood.

 

[Mandiblespeaks]

I might have to second that. 😎

 

[dingyibvs]

you're thinking bunny because of her previous bucktoothed avatar 😉

 

[Sammich117]

Depends on the way they extract it.

And I'm unsure if I'm actually donating. I initially matched this kid but they just took all the blood out of my body to find out if I'm really a good match.

 

[Mandiblespeaks]

you're thinking bunny because of her previous bucktoothed avatar 😉

I thought that was Blue? Am I mistaken?

 

[RunningDiva]

i could do cheetah. its logical.

an ostrich runs fast but they aren't diva-esque. divas never bury their heads in the sand. 👎

 

[Sammich117]

😀

Oh man, we should have retro avatar day someday.

 

[Sammich117]

I thought that was Blue? Am I mistaken?

Blue was in love with my avatar.

Big ol' smiley face with glasses and buck teeth.

 

[RunningDiva]

Oooo that's good. A cheetah seems appropriate for you RD.

alrightie, are changing avatars for this??

 

[BBender716]

nah, the one with the rimmed glasses, sammich knows what's up! lol
