so many medications. the heck with WHY the symptom is occurring! lack of physicians willing to work in the area just a lack of physicians in general (And that is my rant for the day....going to go meditate or something now ....) Paula MrMom
Brrrr....wouldn't the grease be just as cold or am I supposed to warm it up??? What would you suggest for a pole warmer? It is snowing here this morning. The ground is trying to turn white. Nice fine flakes though. I'd like to see some huse monster flakes. Paula, That's my thought on medications and doctors. They don't want to find the root problem, just perscribe a pill to make those symptoms go away and when another pops up - do the same. The doctor she was with in Lunenburg was ral bad for that. The doctor she's with now isn't quite so bad, but the damage is done. Can you imagine - cardic, diabetic and renal diets. Her previous doctor is the root cause of the renal diet - he pushed too many pills and now her kidneys can't function well. Her new doctor has cut her meds in half, but still that's not enough. We aren't that rural. Bridgewater is a pretty big town with a lot of out lying areas. A relatively new hospital that has lots of space, but no doctors. There's a entire wing not open. Just supplies waiting to be used. I think new doctors don't come and stay is because of the over load they seem to get right off the bat. There are a lot of people here on waiting lists. There's just no new blood around to help ease the other doctors loads and when they do come they go holy crap and run for the hills. When anybody goes to a doctor they don't have to pay for a regular visit. But at my doctors office you have to pay for stupid stuff like having forms filled out, having moles removed - cancerious or not, ingrown toe nails and the list goes on. The doctors claim that these things the health care system won't pay for. I have some wierd looking moles and should have them looked at, but for the price of $40 - 50 (that's canadian) I don't think so. The people in the healthcare system here are greatly over worked. Most of the people going to medical school can't find jobs and are going to the US. There they get more money and a job, with the debt they are in from schooling - who can blame them? So that isn't going to help ease the load on anyone. When I was in visiting my grandmother yesterday, I saw 2 trainees. The rest of the nurses sitting sedately behind the nurses station were batting middle age. There should be positions for younger people, but there aren't and that's disappointing. When someone rings the buzzer they just sit there until it goes off for the second or third time and then they go and investigate. Nanny said that happened to her in the middle of the night. She woke up and felt funny. She thought her sugars were going low and the nurse didn't come until the third buzzer and then didn't know she was diabetic. It makes me wonder, it really does. All the charts are there, pull it when you hear the buzzer, do a quick check and then go. But that's not what they do. They seem to think it's a horrible thing to have to go to someone in the middle of the night. The nurse by the way told her she looked fine and to go back to sleep. I was not terribly impressed when I heard that one. Butthat's enough ranting on the hospital, I know that she is feeling better and able to keep that stuff they call food down. Remember diabetic, cardic and renal diets - what does that leave you to eat????? Last night it was a pound of turkey, a cup of rice, apple juice (watered down), and applesauce. She mixed her applesauce in the rice so she could eat it, but she just could swallow the turkey without it getting stuck in her throat. Nice meal. But anyway it's still snowing YEAH!!!!!!!!! I should go check the weather and find out how little we are really supposed to get, I thought this was actually supposed to be rain, but I'm not going to complain. I LOVE THE SNOW!!!!! Sherri PS - Sorry that these posts are so long.

Hi Miss S. Glad you got the folks stabilized. Thoughts prayers etc. That said now back to kidding you OK You are making headway, Thin you cracked the curse. lot of area's snow predicted. However you know there are 24 hours in the day. I am not saying you have to be dancing around the campfire every night, but Look for full moon nights. change outfits during the course of the day to reflect the theme (maybe an NFL C.L. outfit to work.) You were getting in to the North Amer native thingy, Eskimo and or Indian thingy. I don't know Eagle feathers, and those dream catcher things. (nice decorations those Dream catcher) Buffalo head necklass, beads, Jack and the bean stock beans . whatever. At least the beans could be workin while your sleepin. Yeah I know lame suggestions, But some of us are getting desperate as the thaw is close. It is in the forecast, but it may still be up to you to make it happen.. Go get em Snowcloud. Ben

Just thought I'd come in for a break. It's time to get some food and drink. It feels nice to sit down. I've tried lots of outfits, leather, lace, pink, white, black and so on. Haven't figured out yet which one works best. I think I'm going to have the pole moved out behind the house, I'm tired of all accidents happening out here. First Ungabunga and his tractor, that brought several RCMP, fire dept., and ambulances. Well 2 RCMP cars have ended up in the swamp, 1 ambulance and I think I saw a fire truck end up over the cliff before I came in. Hope the neighbors aren't getting mad. But if they are oh well - they should be out dancing too. Well foods on - then I'll go change into a genie theme and head back out. Sherri
