This Thread is about how a person who had a stroke in May 2021 is experiencing life AFTER the stroke. My Ups and Downs.
Has anyone had radiation treatment in Australia over the last couple of years please?
Husband has just been given the costing and it doesn't make any sense.
Medicare pays $20,000
If you have to have radiation treatment you are expected to pay a further $620,00 a week for five weeks.
Even if you are on a Part Pension or Pension!
Being stressed linked with a greater risk of high blood pressure and heart issues, study finds
Researchers from Japan's Kyoto University followed 400 Americans for more than a decade and monitored the levels of stress hormones in their urine.
Celia's photo prompted me to share my favourite 'mother' and daughter photo. The lady is actually my Aunt, my Mother's sister, but she was just as instrumental in raising me as was my Mother. I grew up in a house with Mum & Dad, Aunt & Uncle, and one adult cousin. The sisters were both considered parents in the eyes of a young kid, I called my Aunt Mimi. So I had Mum and Mimi and continued to refer to them like that all my life, still do.
When my kids came along, the two sisters were still living together but the men had gone, died way too soon, sadly.
Funny story. My youngest son's teacher once asked me if my mother had a dog. I didn't think much of it, just said no. Then she said was I aware that he may have an imaginary friend? Well no, but it wouldn't bother me if he did. After a process of elimination, I worked out she was talking about Mimi. When 'Mimi' failed to be a French Poodle, the teacher surmised she may have been an imaginary friend who lived with my mother!!!! A bit of a leap. It amused Mimi and me no end.
Anyway, this is Mimi and me.
Australians living on the road to escape gruelling Covid lockdowns are stopping at an 'enchanting' forest described as a 'scene from a fairytale'. Hidden beside a sleepy town on Queensland's coast, the forest (pictured) is the region's number one attraction, captivating visitors with its towering myrtle trees and spectacular cabbage palm plants. A boardwalk made from raised timber beams and felled tree trunks carves a path through the undergrowth, creating the perfect backdrop for stunning photos.

It was a postcard I have copied and put in my photos some years ago now.

Thanks ladies!
I was just stating that my Diphtheria Jab was much more painful three weeks ago than my Jab on Monday!
That needle put into me three weeks ago hurt for a good week, today I don't feel anything from the jab from Monday.
I am thinking it has a lot to do with who gives us the Jab! More than the actual dose of vaccine!
I am glad it was done, but I wonder why they say it has to be done in three weeks? Why not three months like the AstraZ. Why not in smaller doses also? All these questions if I ask will probably draw a short straw in reply! LOL
But I think people should be asking them.
I am sharing a photo of my late mother and myself, I was 5!
