Em and Phy, the Sema twins

OldBones-Larry
0 12 48

My small caravan of camels I had taken with me found the main caravan this morning, I told everyone to get me to the nearest oasis.

While scouting for other water supplies and food trees, I was attacked by the Sema twins Em (Emily) and Phy (Phyllis). They had a large army of smelly friends with them.

I was able to inflict some damage to their army, but in the end I was captured. One man could not hold off the entire force of them.

Because I had killed so many of their followers, the twins tortured me. They inserted a very large needle into my left lung and began pumping in their special mixture of poisons. At a certain point, the poison spilled into my right lung.

I finally saw my chance and broke one hand free and unstaked myself. I pulled the needle out and drug myself away into the sands. I heard my camels and moved towards them. When the group followed me, the camels kicked them severely. They left without me.

As I only had the Moses Dust with me, I decided to try it on my wounds. I mixed a paste with a small amount of the dust and spread it on. I then mixed some into water and drank it.

What a taste! It did seem to work on the poisons though.

After a many days, I was able to mount one of the camels. They moved by night and found the others this morning.

I must now rest at an oasis till I have healed. I wish I could say I had destroyed those twins, but I can't. I have beaten them off for a while, But I am sure they will be back.

I was able to save all the supplies I found and had loaded on the camels.

Keep Them Away From Your Face.

One step, and then another, will get you to where you want to be.

About the Author
I am a male that underwent coronary artery bypass X3 (triple) on 10/22/13 at the age of 55. I was living on about 20-30% of one coronary artery and my left heart output was only 20% to 25%. I spent a week in the hospital after surgery and went home. Then had to go back a day later for another week because I had pneumonia. Finally a few days because of a slight arythmia. All told it has been about 2 1/2 weeks. I am past the cravings by now and only have the urges to contend with. I really don't suggest that anyone quits smoking using this technique though. I'll have to carry the scars from that day for the rest of my life. The large one down the center of my chest, and the ones from several "silent" infarctions. I came that close to the next world. Never again will I subject my body to that (at one point in my life I was smoking 5 packs of cigarillos a day). I now have to say N.O.P.E. (Not One Puff Ever) every day of my life.
