After a prolonged hospital stay that saved his life, he was treated by a team of thirty medical professionals, lead by Drs. Jeffery Janis and Bohdan Pomahac. The results are nothing less than astonishing.

The type of work that I am doing now leads to periods of high intensity followed by a lull, or low-intensity work. My problem arises, of course, when I am in the midst of insane deadlines and mountains of work that has to be done to impossibly high standards of quality. I have no problem doing the work and think that I am becoming quite good at it. The problem is that I give too much to do it. If I had more time to work within a reasonable schedule, then I would love this job and may even want to do it forever. But, it’s not like that. Up until now, I have managed to keep a low profile by doing all of the detailed, difficult work in the background and letting others take the lea...

As a child of about six or seven I quite possibly suffered some form of psychosis.  I had been burned as a baby (before I was fostered), but have no tangiable memory of that time.  It does however, mke me question regualrly the impact of physical and mental trauma on the develping mind of a baby and toddler. We’re very keen to dismiss the fears of children saying they have “overactive imaginations”, or are just playing for attention. Perhaps we shouldn’t be so quick to brush off the fears of young children. My wonderful Dad, Ron, I’m certain didn’t understand what was happening to me, but he never dismissed ‘the knocking people’ or my tre...

Y’see we get these service users free, They come like lambs to slaughter, And when they fall at the side of the road, We treat them like unexploded mortar.

On the other hand being deaf to the thoughts we are pretending we don’t hear, or refusing to allow them to escape into words which we may want to say, but which we don’t because we fear repercussions just doesn’t work. It creates chasms, voids, holes in lives which squash hopes and dreams. Relationships become strained and broken. Self worth is slowly chipped away.

It happens at bus stops, train stations, shop queues. Somehow you become aware that the person next to you would like to say something, something about them changes, they become a little agitated, they move their feet, fiddle with something; their hair; gloves; or their mobile phone, and then they glance at you quickly, weighing up with that quick sweep of their eyes that you are indeed someone who may not rebuff their approach. It’s quite a mini ordeal people put themselves through, it raises their anxiety, reminds them of their fear of rejection, and it could go so wrong! That face they’ve passed a cursory glance at, may well belong to someone who doesn’t want ...

Within my life I’d become lilliputian, tiny, like a character in Mary Norton’s ‘ The Borrowers’.  Shrinking into the life of the Land Of The Giants was not something which happened suddenly one day. It sneaked up, and over time life outside my home became a huge mountainous, confusing, loud, darkened landscape. Looking back I can clearly see how I stopped walking.  I was deceived.

It is the cause of skin cancer, wrinkles, problem after problem after problem. But is the sun really to blame for any of this. The sun’s always been there, but it’s really only caused a problem in the last few years. Why is it that it is so dangerous? Truthfully, the sun is crucial to our survival. We need it to help our foods to grow, to give us light and to make us feel alive. The effects of vitamin D, produced in our body with sunlight help,  are never disputed and the amount of vitamin D we can get naturally is always better than taking it in supplement form.

This week I was going to write an article about marriage burn-out, but I didn’t bother because someone else already did in yesterday’s Washington Post! While the Washington Post article by Abigail Trafford focuses mostly on long marriages, I think one can have that “burned out” feeling doing anything for even just 5 or 6 years, much less 20 or 30. I think marriages, unlike jobs, are far more challenging to maintain, and beyond just maintaining it, actually helping to nurture it and watch it grow over the years. It can be done. The article mostly focuses on describing how and why many marriages burn out after decades of togetherness, often due to two people growing apart over th...

The terms “sociopath” and “psychopath” are pretty much the same —people who feel no emotional connections to others and have no respect for the rules and regulations of society. Psychosis….now there is something completely different. That’s medical. I hate when media type people start getting confused. Don’t get me started on that wrestler guy’s toxicology report and ignorance. I about threw several objects at my television yesterday. Friggin asshats. They have a hell of a story in front of them and are too stupid to see it….but I digress. Why bring up sociopaths? Dahmer. Why? I know no one gives a shit. I don’t care what you want to read about.

Truly stressful, screwed up day. Extra valium? Anyone? Please!!!! I NEED SOME! Suddenlink (WTF is sudden about it? Should be called “Draggin’ My Ass to Aggravate the Hell out of you” link) was suppose to be here between 8-12 to fix my HBO on demand and trade out my cable box for a HD box. All of ya’ll know that cable time is not real time, right? And they also do not knock loud, call before-hand, or wait more than 30 seconds for you to open the door before they leave. While waiting for the cable company, you can not watch TV for fear of not hearing them, go to the bathroom for fear of not getting your bizness done before they leave, talk on the phone louder than a whisper to make sure you hear their truck pull up…..actually, you mostly have to sit ... bipolar chicks blogging blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=723264 Tue, 10 Jul 2007 02:55:12 +0100 723264 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=716684&cid=t_162904_140_f&fid=35448&url=http%3A%2F%2Fseemedlikeagoodideathetime.com%2F2007%2F07%2F05%2Fjohn-edwardsooooh-hes-so-pretty%2F  John Edwards is a big fat, moley face hyporcrite!!!! A $400 haircut???? How ’bout giving $385 to some of the po’ folk you keep harping about. That leaves you $15 for a haircut like the average, middle-class man, John? Or, if you want to fancy up a bit,  you could keep $25 but if you do, you had better tip the hairdresser at least five bucks of it., you  twinkle-toed candy ass nancy boy.  Now, let’s all sit back and enjoy John primping, feathering, and posturing like a 14 year old girl on a Friday nite at the local mall.

I did. I about threw my can of diet vanilla coke through my television…but that would have ruined a perfectly good snack in a can.

Well, I happen to love spy shows. Even stupid ones. Especially deliberately stupid ones, like "Get Smart." However, the genre has gone downhill of late, with 24 establishing that the most important tool for spies to use vs spies is a car battery, jumper cables and a bucket of salt water.I'm sorry, in the American Rules version of The Greatest Game, torture is cheating.But I like USA Network's quirky approach to programming, so I felt it worth a look. The opportunity didn't say I had to approve, it just said "go look and then talk about what sort of gadget the character would need to remain "under the radar." I'm taking this as a promise that a wide variety of gadgets will be a staple of the storyline, and I go into dr...
