I miss Dr Becker. He had bedside manor and a sense of humor, and he hugged me when i cried about needing another surgery. i met my new dr today, this is how our meeting went:
**Enter Dr Smith** "Hello, I'm Dr. smith. Will you touch your toes for me?"
**I slide off the table, stand on my good leg and bend as far as i can.** "I cant bend all the way, it hurts when it pulls the muscles."
**Dr. Smith reads over Dr Becker's notes, looks up and says** " My nurse will set up surgery and call you." **EXIT DR SMITH**
WTF!!! No handshake, no physical contact, and i'm letting you take a scalpel to my spine??? Did i forget my meds today? Or worse, did u????
**UPDATE---SURGERY IS SCHEDULED FOR SEPTEMBER 11**

Dr. Becker!!!
Auburn: Friends, patients, family mourn loss, recall the brilliance of Dr. Virgil Becker
By ROBERT WHALEAuburn Reporter News reporterAug 20 2008
Eagle Scout by 14, student at West Point, holder of legal and medical degrees, past member of the Secret Service, trained pilot, farmer, photographer, veteran of Desert Storm.
In his 58 years on earth, Dr. Virgil Tory Becker seemed to be everywhere, doing everything.
Not only was the Auburn doctor a top-flight surgeon, but he also excelled at diagnosing and working with his patients. President of the Enumclaw Regional Hospital Medical Staff, he wrote an internationally published paper on orthopedic back surgery.
Yet somehow in his crowded life, Becker found time to run marathons and to hike Mount Rainier and Mount St. Helens. One trip up St. Helens in 2007 with his youngest daughter, Barbara, then 9, put the girl in the books as the youngest child ever to make the climb.
Hundreds of patients and family members gathered last Friday afternoon at Wabash Presbyterian Church for a memorial service honoring Becker, who died in a plane crash July 27 in the rugged area of Bald Mountain north of Arlington. Also killed were the pilot, 47-year-old Brenda L. Houston of Enumclaw, and her 10-year-old daughter, Elizabeth M. Crews of Enumclaw.
Lynn Nieland, Becker’s nurse in the operating room for 18 years, recalled a man who felt as at home at the hospital as he did on the family’s 40-acre farm in Enumclaw, so at home in fact he wore his farming boots on rounds, much to the puzzlement and amusement of his patients.
Nieland recalled being at her mother’s house in North Carolina recently when the phone rang. It was Dr. Becker, asking if by chance her mother had a moonshine still. Now what would a conformed Scotch drinker such as Becker be wanting with a moonshine still? Well, he replied, he had some lavender and wanted to make fragrances.
“Now here’s this man who taught us how to sheer sheep, wore his boots and was out on his backhoe doing all the manly, manly stuff, but he had some lavender, and he would like a still to make some fragrances,” Nieland said. “He was a man who did it all, who brought us the honey that he made.
“Lucky me and all of us to have known him, worked with him, learned from him. No one will ever be like that again,” Nieland said.
Sylvia Parker, a member of the Franciscan Health System Board and a friend, described some of Becker’s special qualities.
“You know how there are some people that the minute you meet them you know they are extraordinary? I have rarely met that many people who were as funny and unusual in their brilliance,” said Parker.
“... He was very deliberate and very fastidious, but he was such a quiet person about his accomplishments. And that’s the thing I found so extraordinary. Because usually people who have done a third of what he’s done would be shouting to the heavens about how clever they are. I learned about his accomplishments from other people,” Parker said.
Dennis Popp, chief operating officer of Enumclaw Regional Hospital, said the hospital had a unique relationship with Becker and his wife, Dr. Nancy Becker.
“Virgil had a portion of his medical practice in Enumclaw, but a very small portion of it at our hospital. But because of his interest in supporting Enumclaw Regional Hospital and making his home close by, he devoted significant time and energy and wisdom to the hospital. Using his medical training, his legal background, his experiences and a lot of common sense, he participated in a lot of intelligent discussions and helped make some very practical and keen decisions with the board of directors and the medical staff.”
Becker is survived by his wife, Dr. Nancy Becker; daughters, Barbara, Jane, Carol, and Diane; his mother Barbara MacIntosh (San Marino); his brothers, William (Enumclaw), and Brian (San Marino).
A private graveside service at Tahoma National Cemetery preceded the memorial. Donations may be made to the Virgil V. Becker Destination Imagination Fund at Mt. Rainier Bank in Enumclaw.

Nuther Back Surgery
Word of advice. When your dr says you are done with physical therapy but take it easy for a while, he DOES NOT MEAN ITS OKAY TO LIFT A SMALL REFRIDGERATOR!!! Nobody told me this; i learned the hard way. And wouldn't you know it, *POP* i felt my back go out. Dr. Becker did an MRI and i busrt into tears when he said i opened my spine again. He hugged me and we began the process again. I'll prolly have the surgery in about 2-3 weeks. I like him, but there's a greater risk for complications and paralyzation. I'm scared.

Alone...
Its pitch black. I can hear the ocean all around me. I can feel the cold steel of a metal railing under my hands. I sense a presence and i open my eyes. I can see you, off to my left- just out of arms reach. The ocean is liquid black glass, no moon for reflection. Off in the distance is something; small, white, and bobbing closer. I look at you, but you have moved. You are now about 5 feet away. I reach my hands out anyway... knowing i cannot reach you. I return my hand to the railing and check on the white speck. It has bobbed close enough that i can see it is a small boat. i look back at you- do you see the boat? But you have moved even further away. now over 10 feet away, i can barely make out the features of your face. You have become a shadow. Laughter brings my attention back to the boat, where i see 4 people standing on the end. They are laughing and pointing to something i cannot see, in the far off distance. One of the men slides his arms gently around the waist of the females and she leans a head on his shoulder. I crave that touch. Nothing sexual, purely human. I reach my hand out to you, again knowing its futile. My hand grabs at nothing and when i look you have moved even further into the shadows. I cant even make out your silhuette, and i realize. I am alone. I close my eyes, and everything goes black.

Adults only, Seriously
Keep in mind as you read this- i have never asked for anything but your love. You wanted a woman that would love you, understand you and care about you. And i gave myself to you...
Can you imagine the first time we meet? Should i kiss your lips? Or pull you behind a tree and drop to my knees? Unbutton your zipper with my teeth, as you run your fingers thru my hair? I'll slide my hands up the side of your pants, and look up into your eyes as i pull your pants down. I look down, shy about what i want to do, but wanting you to tell me. You grip my hair with your hands, pulling me closer to your slightly swollen dick. I can feel myself getting wet, and i know wearing a skirt was a BIG mistake. I run my fingers slowly up your legs, scratching the inside of your thighs as my mouth finds exactly what it wants. I pull your cock out, teasing the end of it with my tounge, waiting further instructions from you. You pull my hair back, forcing me to look up at you. I know, when i see your eyes, im lost. I am at your command. I only want to please you.
I take the head of your cock in my mouth, and run my fingernails gently down the side of your leg. Not enough to make scratches, but enough to make shivers down your spine, and i hear your breath catch. I love that sound, and i can feel how wet my pussy is. I feel your fingers in my hair tighten, and i know what you want. I take a deep breath, and i take your entire dick in my mouth; down the back of my throat. As i wiggle my tongue, i can taste how sweet the first drops taste. I cant wait to swallow it all. But first i have to tease you... In and out... slowly... each time i force myself to take you all the way down my throat. I know you like it because you keep your hands tight in my hair and each time i pull back, you grip tightly. But each time i pull back, i look straight into your eyes, to capture that feeling of being yours. With my left hand, i slowly lift your dick, i play with the tip as i lean forward to take your balls in my mouth. You hold my hair with one hand; the other is slowly running up and down my neck. Each touch is like electricity, and i can actually feel my poor pussy dripping. I reach down with one hand to see how wet, but you pull my hair and shake your head no. Slowly i pull my hand back up, and reach to play with your balls. i lightly tickle them, then lead them to my mouth as my left hand keeps playing with the head of your cock.
I sit up on my knees to get a better grip on you, to play with your dick some more, but you push me away; back to the ground. I look up into your eyes to see what i have done wrong; what makes you continue to push me away? Your eyes are dancing with a teasing look. You pull off your shoes and pants completely, and crawl next to me. I feel your hands up my skirt, just teasing the outside of my tight, wet pussy. And then i feel your fingers, playing around the inside, as you lean over to kiss me. The electricity of your kiss, mixed with the teasing fingers; i lose my self-control, and when you push me back until im laying on the ground, i can't refuse. Your kisses are like lightning, sending shivers down my whole body, stopping at my pussy, now dripping with your finger playing circles just inside it. I reach up torun my fingers thru your hair and pull you own closer- i cant enough of you. My hands reach down to see if you are still rock hard, and i can feel that you are dripping, too. I open my legs a little, trying to send you the signal that i need you inside me. And I feel your finger slide all the way inside, which makes me kiss you harder. I pull you close, hugging you and kissing you at the same time, as your finger slides in and out.
Then you pull away from me again- no kisses, no hugs, nothing. What have i done this time?? Did you not like that?? I stare in your eyes, trying to see... what have i done? I move to sit up, but you shake your finger no. I am so very confused... Until you move down between my legs, i can see your eyes; smiling now. Instictively, i put my legs down, and you crawl over me, lifting my skirt as you do. I can feel how hard you are, and i brace myself, knowing what will happen, wanting it to, but being so afraid. But you lean down, entering me softly, staring directly in my eyes, and kiss me. I feel the head of your dick open my pussy; your fingers have done a very good job of getting me ready. I close my eyes, waiting for the final thrust and when i feel it, its like a million lightning bolts thru my body. I open my eyes to see you staring at me, making sure i am okay. I shake my head yes, and move my body to match yours, move for move. I can feel the pressure building, and even though ive never felt this way, i know whats going to happen. Without warning, i am no longer in control of my body. All my senses are gone, focused only on you, and the feelings jetting thru my whole body. I can feel your hands on my body, i can feel your cock inside me, but i cant stop the lightning, the electricty that has taken control. I grab your arms for help, but your eyes are smiling... you know what just happened, but you do not know you were my first. I slowly calm down, yet you continue to slowly fuck me, and i feel the elecrticity coming again.
When you reach down to kiss me again, i push you over onto your side. I want YOU to feel the same electricity you sent thru me. I slide down between your open legs, and i can SEE what you did to me. I reach down and touch your dick softly, and i see your body move. So my hands contiue down to play with your balls, and i bend down to kiss the tip of your cock. Its wet and slides easily down my throat. Before i can even come back up to tease you, your hands are playing in my hair, pulling me back. I want so badly to play; to tease; to taste! You pull me up for a deep deep kiss, and then release me. i slowly scratch my nails down your body... and resume teasing you with my tongue. I reach down, grab your hands and pull them thru my hair. I slowly slide your dick deep in my throat, and your hands tighten in my hair... i can feel this is it... you're about to feel the electricity you gave me. Your hands tighten in my hair, and i feel your cock pulsing in my mouth...i taste your sweetness fill my mouth,and i swallow as fast as i can, trying to please you. i know its very very sensitive, so i lighty suck all your juices out, licking and swallowing every drop. When you are completly empty, i crawl up beside you, kiss your forehead, and pull you into my arms. Wrapped in my arms, i let you sleep, knowing you are safe. Knowing you are loved.
Can you imagine the first time we meet? Should i kiss your lips? Or pull you behind a tree and drop to my knees? Unbutton your zipper with my teeth, as you run your fingers thru my hair? I'll slide my hands up the side of your pants, and look up into your eyes as i pull your pants down. I look down, shy about what i want to do, but wanting you to tell me.
