High cholesterol seems to run in my family. I worried about my mother, eliminating nearly all "good" fats from her diet to reach a number, but she would not take statins. She did live to the age of 91. Her BMI at the time of her death was probably about 15. My son claims that we have "genetic superiority". He may be right.
RABIES VACCINATION REQUIRED: Pursuant to G.S. 130A-185, every owner of a domestic dog, cat or ferret in North Carolina is required to have their animal currently vaccinated against rabies by four months of age and maintain the animal’s current rabies vaccination status throughout the animal’s entire lifetime. The owner should retain the original copy of the rabies vaccination certificate, provided by the legally authorized vaccinator as evidence of the animal’s current vaccination status. There are no legal waivers or exemptions, rabies vaccinations are required by law for domestic dogs, cats and ferrets in North Carolina.
I think that starting 1/1/2027, the authorities can come into your home if you have unvaccinated pets. We have a cat that is almost 19 years old. She is only in the house and on the screened-in porch. She wouldn't go out if the door was wide open. She has not been vaccinated in probably 10 years. I've never had a pet live this long. I will never adopt another pet, if torture is required. I don't trust vets.
Thank you, Nestle? They should not have put that crap into their products in the first place!
Very sorry for your loss. May your son rest in peace. May our Divine Physician provide healing and comfort to all who are in mourning. Blessed are they who mourn, for they will be comforted (Matthew 5:4).
I think I do understand your meaning. I am a retired nurse. It hurts my soul to learn how I and others were lied to and that true knowledge was hidden when it suited a purpose. I did not go into nursing to hurt others, but to serve and care for them. It was a decision I was told that I made at the age of 3. I believe there are many good and well-meaning people still in the industry. Some/many may still be asleep. It was a not an easy choice to see the doctor today and it caused me a bit of anxiety. I think this doctor is asleep to the truth, but means well and shows respect to my choices to decline vaccines and tests. If those who know never interact with those still asleep, then we have no opportunities to share the truth and potentially help them to see. I appreciate your comments and beliefs, but choose a different approach.
Today, I just wanted a prescription for ear drops refilled. I checked with Medicare and a yearly visit is not required, so if I feel well next year, I'll cancel the appointment.
The doctor did however offer a survey to see if I qualify for a cancer screening blood test. She said half of her patients who took the survey qualified for the test. "If your insurance does not cover the test, the max price would be $250." lol - I declined. No more fear porn, thank you. She also said that if I ever changed my mind about vaccines or a mammogram to let her know. haha, not bloody likely!
I think the consent form that I mentioned initially was a hospital admission consent. I think it is good for a year (unless rescinded). They like to keep one on file. No one at the doctor's office mentioned that I failed to sign it.
It is electronic and there does not appear to be a way to amend it. I do like your suggestion, though.
His ability to remain calm in the face of such hatred is inspiring. A gift I wish that I had.
(May) The Lord bless you and keep you; (may) the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; (may) the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace. Numbers 6:24-26
For all that nasty drainage, I suggest you cut up an onion (any type), put onion pieces in a jar (up to 3/4 full) and cover it with raw honey. Cover and let sit on the counter. In a few hours, you'll notice that the honey is thinner in consistency and you can start using it. Take a tablespoon of the liquid several times a day. It will loosen the secretions, aiding with sinus drainage and making it easier to cough out nasty secretions. It will soothe your throat. Hope you find relief and healing soon.
Very sorry for what you are experiencing. Our military deserve much better treatment and care. Prayers for relief from the pain.
May our Divine Physician heal you from all ailments.
Was it Harry Truman who said: “Show me a man that gets rich by being a politician, and I’ll show you a crook. “?
In the video, it appears he is in a classroom. Parents, if this is what is teaching your precious children, please pull them out of that school!
True. In NC, we pay property tax yearly on our vehicles. We have a trailer that was purchased in Ohio 20 years ago for $500. NC appraises the current value of the trailer as $1200. Fortunately, the tax is about $5, or we'd make an effort to challenge.
A friend said that each time someone uses a Grok app, it uses a gallon of water. Is this true? We are in a drought in WNC.
Thank you for sharing this. I was confused, but EB's thoughts about how God uses people for His purposes aligns with my beliefs.
I will include you and your family in my prayers, also. I used to counsel pregnant teens. Something that came up frequently was continued worrying over something the teen had prayed about and given up to God. I reminded her that once you give something to God, there are no "take backs". When you realize that you are obsessing over something you have asked God to handle, immediately say a prayer, apologizing for your lack of trust in Him and ask Him for the grace to trust that He will handle it. If you do this every time you start to obsess, you'll find yourself stopping sooner and sooner. I pray for your peace of mind and that joy will return to your daily life. God's got this!
Thank you for sharing this.
Blessings on your grandpa for his promotion from this life. May he rest in peace. May your memories of him bring comfort.
Prayers for your healing and strength. What you are going through sounds like normal recovery from the anesthetics (tired, sleepy, nauseated). Medical providers often tell us lots about recovery from the procedure and rarely mention the effects of the anesthesia. Drink lots of fluids to help flush the drugs from your system. Hope you feel better soon.
Sorry for your loss. May she rest in peace and may the good memories bring you comfort.
