The idea behind a stool transplant is to "reseed the lawn," so to speak. After exposure to weeks or months of antibiotics (including Vanco) the normal bowel flora - the organisms in your colon that help prevent infection - is weakened. They simply can't keep C. diff out. In other words, the normal barrier function of the colonic flora is gone, and C. diff gets right back in. So putting in some normal flora from a healthy donor is like reseeding the lawn - it restores the barrier. When that happens, C. diff cannot get back in, and the infection is cured. ~ J. Thomas LaMont
Fecal Transplant quotes by J. Thomas LaMont
There is a Western phenomenon called the male midlife crisis. Very often it is heralded by divorce. What history might have done to you, you bring about on purpose: separation from woman and child. Don't tell me that such men aren't tasting the ancient flavors of death and defeat.
In America, with divorce achieved, the midlifer can expect to be more recreational, more discretionary. He can almost design the sort of crisis he is going to have: motorbike, teenage girlfriend, vegetarianism, jogging, sports car, mature boyfriend, cocaine, crash diet, powerboat, new baby, religion, hair transplant.
Over here, now, there's no angling around for your male midlife crisis. It is brought to you and it is always the same thing. It is death. ~ Martin Amis
Fecal Transplant quotes by Martin Amis
Comedians, such as yourself, Jon Stewart and others, are a valuable supplement, and here's why: Good journalism at its best frequently speaks truth to power. What's happened with journalists - again, I don't except myself from this criticism - in some ways we've lost our guts. We need a spine transplant. What's happened is comedians, in their own way, speak truth to power and fill that vacuum that we in journalism have too often left, particularly post 9/11. ~ Dan Rather
Fecal Transplant quotes by Dan Rather
I am overjoyed that I do not need a heart transplant at this time. ~ Lech Walesa
Fecal Transplant quotes by Lech Walesa
I think we can allow the therapeutic uses of nuclear transplant technology, which we call cloning, without running the danger of actually having live human beings born. ~ David Baltimore
Fecal Transplant quotes by David Baltimore
When did you get so smart?"
He tapped his forehead. "Brain transplant. They put in a whale's. I'm passing all my classes with my eyes closed now, but I just can't get over this craving for krill." He shrugged. "And I feel sorry for the whale that got my brain. Probably swimming around Florida now trying to catch glimpses of girls in bikinis. ~ Maggie Stiefvater
Fecal Transplant quotes by Maggie Stiefvater
For a dying man it is not a difficult decision [to agree to become the world's first heart transplant] ... because he knows he is at the end. If a lion chases you to the bank of a river filled with crocodiles, you will leap into the water convinced you have a chance to swim to the other side. But you would not accept such odds if there were no lion. ~ Christiaan Barnard
Fecal Transplant quotes by Christiaan Barnard
The brain isn't like the heart. They learned how to transplant a heart. The brain is more complex. ~ Adam Ant
Fecal Transplant quotes by Adam Ant
And I wrote a story for private circulation, "Miss Lewis & the Giant Turd," about a painful bowel movement that began in class, as she was drilling us on prepositions. Suddenly she emitted a low scraping sound like a box of rocks being dragged across concrete--like a glacier moving!--and she let out an AIIIIEEEEEEE and bent over double and hobbled to the girls' room, where she fell to the floor and cried pitifully for the janitor, who rushed in with a plunger and tried to extract the fecal mass from her, but it was too immense, and then the fire department arrived and laid her over the sink and attached a suction pump, two men on either side of her skinny butt, working a lever, and they managed to suction the poop out of her, and when they were done, she weighed forty-five pounds. And she couldn't teach anymore, she just sat on her front step waving to passing cars.

This title passed from pupil to pupil, two grimy sheets of paper folded to pocket size.... The story found its way to Laura, Miss Lewis's pet, who handed it over to her, and she read it, thin-lipped, and tore it into tiny pieces and dropped them into the wastebacket. "This is so childish it doesn't bear talking about," she said. "It is beneath contempt. ~ Garrison Keillor
Fecal Transplant quotes by Garrison Keillor
But the western mind can't bear an opt- out option. we're going to have to re-fight the Battle of the Little Bighorn to preserve the right to opt-out, or your grandchildren and mine will have no choice but to eat amalgamated, irradiated, genetically prostituted, bar-coded, adulterated fecal spam from the centralized processing conglomerate. Joel Salatin ~ Michael Pollan
Fecal Transplant quotes by Michael Pollan
In the Lord's Prayer, Jesus offers more than God's personal email or private cell number - He offers us a heart transplant. ~ Mark Hart
Fecal Transplant quotes by Mark Hart
He smiled slowly, as if particularly pleased with her question, and she couldn't help smiling in return. He reached around her, his arms nearly embracing her, and wrote in the notebook on her lap, Very good. Yes, the root ball should be quite big, even so. "Should be?" His breath was warm against her ear. I confess. I've never attempted to transplant a fully grown tree. I shall do so, however, this afternoon. Would you like to watch? If someone had asked her a fortnight ago if she'd like to watch a tree being planted, she would've looked at the questioner quite pityingly. But right now, this moment, she was rather excited at the prospect. Perhaps too many viewings of Caliban's nude chest had addled her brain. In any case she gazed into his thickly lashed brown eyes and smiled brilliantly. "Yes, please." His grin was quick and all-encompassing and, she couldn't help but think, solely for her. ~ Elizabeth Hoyt
Fecal Transplant quotes by Elizabeth Hoyt
At the Temple of the Seven-Handed Sek a hasty convocation of priests and ritual heart-transplant artisans agreed that the hundred-span-high statue of Sek was altogether too holy to be made into a magic picture, but a payment of two rhinu left them astoundedly agreeing that perhaps He wasn't as holy as all that.
A prolonged session at the Whore Pits produced a number of colourful and instrutive pictures, a number of which Rincewind concealed about his person for detailed perusal in private. As the fumes cleared from his brain he began to speculate seriously as to how the iconograph worked. ~ Terry Pratchett
Fecal Transplant quotes by Terry Pratchett
Nothing mattered, except whether the transplant took. God, he wanted it to work. He wanted to heal Skye, make her well again, if not with his kidney, then from the very force of his longing. Tears slipped out from beneath his eyelids and ran down his cheeks. Even if he never saw her again he couldn't bear the thought of her dying. ~ Kylie Ladd
Fecal Transplant quotes by Kylie Ladd
It is infinitely better to transplant a heart than to bury it to be devoured by worms. ~ Christiaan Barnard
Fecal Transplant quotes by Christiaan Barnard
I look back to where my life had been. It's always risky to think of letting go. That's why this is the perfect ending. Nothing left to reconcile. ~ Loretta Ellsworth
Fecal Transplant quotes by Loretta Ellsworth
Oh, how crafty of religion, I cried out indignantly, to transplant rewards and punishments into a future life in order to comfort cowards and the enslaved and aggrieved, enabling them to bow their necks patiently before their masters, and to endure this earthly life without groaning (the only life of which we can be sure)! ~ Nikos Kazantzakis
Fecal Transplant quotes by Nikos Kazantzakis
Following his studies with Carrel, Voronoff worked in Egypt for the Egyptian king. Voronoff soon became fascinated with the eunuchs that were part of the king's harem. In particular, he noted that the castration they received seemed to increase the speed at which the eunuchs aged. This observation was the beginning of Voronoff's obsession with a surgical answer to aging. Likely inspired by the pioneering work of his mentor and the excitement of the new surgical techniques, Voronoff began to dabble in experimental transplantation. But he went beyond the techniques that his mentor had perfected. In early experiments Voronoff transplanted the testicles of a lamb into an old ram, claiming that the transplant served to thicken the ram's wool and increase its sex drive. These early studies foreshadowed the work that would follow. ~ Nathan Wolfe
Fecal Transplant quotes by Nathan Wolfe
It'll be a blunder to 'transplant' those you should leave at their distant habitat of acquaintance to the vicinity of friendship. If you naively embrace a slimy, slippery, serpent, you will nonetheless get bitten. ~ Vincent Okay Nwachukwu
Fecal Transplant quotes by Vincent Okay Nwachukwu
Should he be advised to come home, to transplant his life and resume all the old friendships- nothing prevented this- and generally rely on the help of friends? But all this would mean to him, and the more tactfully it was put the more offensive it would be, was that his every effort had been for naught, and he should finally abandon them, that he should return home and suffer being viewed by everyone as the prodigal returned forever, that only his friends had any understanding of things, and that he was a big child who must simply listen to those friends who had remained home and been successful. ~ Franz Kafka
Fecal Transplant quotes by Franz Kafka
Nearly every shift, I'm asking myself, What do I do with this patient now that he has shown up here in my ER? What does he need from us right now? Unfortunately, the most common answer is: He needs a childhood transplant, he needs to start over - with loving parents this time, in a caring, nurturing environment. ~ Julie Holland
Fecal Transplant quotes by Julie Holland
EVEN THOUGH I KNEW it was going to be what she would ask me, Graciela McCaleb's request gave me pause. Terry McCaleb had died on his boat a month earlier. I had read about it in the Las Vegas Sun. It had made the papers because of the movie. FBI agent gets heart transplant and then tracks down his donor's killer. It was a story that had Hollywood written all over it and Clint Eastwood played the part, even though he had a couple decades on Terry. The film was a modest success at best, but it still gave Terry the kind of notoriety that guaranteed an obituary notice in papers across the country. I had just gotten back to my apartment near the strip one morning and picked up the Sun. Terry's death was a short story in the back of the A section. ~ Michael Connelly
Fecal Transplant quotes by Michael Connelly
A brick could be used as brain filler for the political mind, just in case one of our elected officials needs a brain transplant to try to boost their intellectual capabilities. ~ Jarod Kintz
Fecal Transplant quotes by Jarod Kintz
More than 100 people are involved in a transplant operation ... and we can't waste time and resources if there is a chance the caretakers aren't up for an awesome responsibility. ~ Leonard Bailey
Fecal Transplant quotes by Leonard Bailey
Captain, your fecal aroma is disturbing our meditation." "I ~ Lindsay Buroker
Fecal Transplant quotes by Lindsay Buroker
Felching is when a man fucks you up the butt without a rubber. He shoots his load, and then plants his mouth on your anus and sucks out his own warm sperm, plus whatever lubrication and feces are present. That's felching. It may or may not, include kissing you to pass the sperm and fecal matter into your mouth. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fecal Transplant quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
If becoming a person of faith were more like, say, receiving a personality transplant, life would be easier. ~ Nadia Bolz-Weber
Fecal Transplant quotes by Nadia Bolz-Weber
Just to confirm to all my followers I have had a hair transplant. I was going bald at 25 why not. ~ Wayne Rooney
Fecal Transplant quotes by Wayne Rooney
My first attempts to transplant nuclei in Xenopus were completely unsuccessful, because the Xenopus egg, unlike those of other amphibians, is surrounded by an extremely elastic membrane and jelly layer that make penetration by a micropipette impossible. ~ John Gurdon
Fecal Transplant quotes by John Gurdon
Modern medicine has created more co-dependents even than co-pays. We've learned to hold out for a magic bullet such as a new miracle drug, breakthrough surgical procedure or new organ transplant. What rubbish. ~ Andrew Saul
Fecal Transplant quotes by Andrew Saul
Since when has leadership been a criterion for sanity? Or vice versa. Hitler was a gifted leader, even Nixon. Exhibit leadership qualities as an adolescent, they pack you off to law school for an anus transplant. If it takes, you go into government. ~ Tom Robbins
Fecal Transplant quotes by Tom Robbins
I have scary eyes. I look like the guy in 'American History X,' yes. I remember coming home from school and asking my mum if I could get an eye transplant, and of course she declined. ~ Timothy Ferriss
Fecal Transplant quotes by Timothy Ferriss
I know I was an idiot, but I swear I've changed."
My brows lifted. "Really? Got a brain transplant, did you? ~ J.T. Geissinger
Fecal Transplant quotes by J.T. Geissinger
That cake tasted good. But the cake in the garbage tasted better. It was the best cake I ever ate. ~ Loretta Ellsworth
Fecal Transplant quotes by Loretta Ellsworth
Unlike modern pills, these hard antimony pills didn't dissolve in the intestines, and the pills were considered so valuable that people rooted through fecal matter to retrieve and reuse them. Some lucky families even passed down laxatives from father to son. Perhaps for this reason, antimony found heavy work as a medicine, although it's actually toxic. Mozart probably died from taking too much to combat a severe fever. ~ Sam Kean
Fecal Transplant quotes by Sam Kean
I recently have had a full hip replacement and a liver transplant, and I'm getting used to the medication. ~ Evel Knievel
Fecal Transplant quotes by Evel Knievel
We are beginning to learn that intangibles have more specific gravity than we suspected, that ideas can generate as much forward thrust as Atlas missiles. We may win a victory in exploring the infinities of outer space, but it will be a Pyrrhic victory unless we can also explore the infinities of our inner spirit. We have supersensitive thermographs to show us the slightest variations in skin temperature. No devices can teach us the irrelevance of skin color. WE can transplant a heart from one person to another in a brilliant feat of surgical virtuosity. Now we are ready to try it the hard way: transplanting understanding, compassion, and love from one person to another. ~ Lloyd Alexander
