I have my doubts about childhood cancer research. 20 years ago, as a nurse in a pediatric hospital, I learned that 4 out of 5 children with cancer would survive. Now, St Jude's commercials tell us that 80% of them survive. This does not sound like progress to me.

Although this happened in March 2017, it bears repeating for others who may choose to make bad choices. If it were my son or grandson who was killed in the commission of a crime, I think I might consider that a worse outcome would be the death of a victim.

And I don't want to listen to TV commercials in any language but English.

I assumed the Archbishop of Canterbury was a Catholic, but I just read that he is Anglican. I guess the plans include destruction of all Christian Churches. No denominations can claim they are exempt from these issues.

How are so many men homosexuals and pedophiles? I've read that parasites may be involved. How did so many of them rise to the positions of bishop and cardinal? I do not know. I am a cradle Catholic and this has been an issue for most of my life. I agree that these men need to be stopped, and I think many have been, but reparations for those who were harmed in the past is not happening fast enough.

Part of the plan to destroy the Catholic Church was to flood the priesthood with homosexuals and pedophiles.

Perhaps they killed off millions of voters with the poison shot. Who thought that would turn out well?

This recently occurred to me . . . "My body, my choice" reminds me of Shakespeare's play, "The Merchant of Venice". In the play, a debt collector (Shylock) requests a pound of flesh from a merchant as payment for treating him poorly. The demand was fair, and the judge agreed that the debt collector could take a pound of flesh, but the contract said nothing about the collector taking any blood from the merchant. Thus, women can be in charge of their own body, but the baby's body happens to belong to another, and is not included in mommy's mantra of "my body, my choice".

I was looking for a restaurant which I knew was near a VA (Veterans Administration) Hospital. My phone map finder kept telling me where to turn to get to the "Virginia" Hospital (in North Carolina). lol

Wish I had seen this before I voted early. I think political clothing is a free speech issue. In support of this lady, I would have said "Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump . . ." the entire time I was in the booth!

Whatever happened to "2 wrongs don't make a right"? I also am disgusted by the desire to punish a child for the sins of the father. Many women report that the child conceived through rape was a blessing for their lives.

Sadly, there are cures for cancer, but the general public is not permitted to know or have them. Some do die from cancer. My sister died at the age of 66 with melanoma metastasis to her brain (no covid vaxx). She had one tumor removed for identification, but refused chemo and radiation. This was before I learned about the cancer fighting powers of IVM and Fenben. She may have tried them. Another sister's MIL just died from pancreatic CA. She had 2 covid vaxx d/t pressure from at least one of her sons. She developed symptoms (turned yellow) within hours of taking her second Ozempic injection (prescribed for "pre-diabetes"). She was 86 and refused to have a biopsy or treatment. Both ladies died within 3 mo of diagnosis.

I drink a glass of water with about a tablespoon of unpasteurized apple cider vinegar in it at lunchtime each day. As we age, the stomach makes LESS acid. Acid is the chemical signal for the sphincter between the esophagus and stomach to close. So, for many, heartburn is not due to too much acid, but acid in the wrong place. Those drugs you've been taking block your acid producing cells, so the body just makes more of those cells. Without the drugs, you can have extra cells now producing acid. I am not sure if drinking ACV in water will help your situation, but it is worth trying.

And our part D, drug coverage is going up from $5 a month to $40 a month (each) in 2025. Between us we have 1 ongoing prescription. But, even if you have zero prescriptions you are required to have part D coverage or you risk a big penalty if you don't pay for it now and then need it later. On top of that, when the doc tried to prescribe one of those pricey new drugs for my IBS, SilverScript by Aetna refused to cover it. At first, I was annoyed. Now, I am grateful that I am not dependent upon big pharma.

To me, loving my neighbor means wanting what is best for them. The absolute best is salvation. Thus, I will not excuse, condone or encourage their sins. I do pray that they repent of their sins and turn to Jesus for forgiveness and mercy.

How frightening for the woman who spoke to the city commissioners. She weighs 95 pounds and Haitian men who speak no English yell at her from her yard, throw down mattresses in her yard and leave their trash for her to pick up. This is a travesty for Americans. (Grew up in Dayton, OH)

I read that mouthwash was first invented to strip wax from floors. No thanks.

My uncle committed suicide in 1971 and the psychiatrist told my mother that prozac was probably the reason. In the late 90s, my sister was suffering from depression and her doctor prescribed prozac. Within weeks, she started having homicidal thoughts and quit taking the drug.

Friend just had hip replacement surgery; couldn't go to a rehab center because all of the patients have "covid". Such a crock.
