"After we gave her the baby doll, I never felt sad again when I left," she said. "So it was very liberating for me......" Two Catonsville mothers, Wendy Geist and Amy Nelson, have initiated a volunteer project of collecting used dolls to ease the suffering and bring joy to seniors experiencing Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia. The women say, " beneficial effects can be amazing." My mother loves dolls and handles them all the time. She also loves anything that is soft and cuddly--like the pink Gund bear I bought for her 20 years ago. My mother also perks up whenever she is around children. They seem to ...

So I’ll just share a quicky whilst I play catch up. I’m not sure if it’s an American thing or a Californian thing but I think the whole world recognizes it. You have to imagine a teenage girl, an American of course. She is probably dressed in whatever is the current fashion for teenage girls and wears a whole heap of attitude. It’s an attitude full of confidence and entitlement. It’s encapsulated in a Bratz doll but I believe it’s universal. These young women have a few stock phrases which they exchange with other young women of their ilk. They all understand each other although these few phrases may seem like an overly brief shorthand to an older generation. Can you see it? Can you hear it? Are we on t...

I heard the concern expressed that young girls might play with the doll, decide they like breastfeeding (yay!) and then — here’s the inexplicable leap — suddenly decide they want to have a baby! Yet somehow we let our little girls play with dolls with baby bottles, and there’s no concern there? Does that mean that breastfeeding is sexual or that a breastfeeding doll sexualizes the young girl who plays with it? Give me a break! I suppose I can see some people’s concern with the “flowers” that represent the nipple and areola. Personally those do not bother me one bit. I teach my seven-, four- and one-year-old girls the correct anatomic...

After awhile I was feeling that I was getting tired a lot, however, I also had been dealing with the effects of a cold over a month. Tired, and still depressed, I went back to talk about the meds. We decided up to twice as much. I was convinced it was not feeling well that was doing it. My doc did give me a script for Cipralex, essentially the same drug, but less side effects, to switch to if I felt I needed to over the course of the holidays. Over time, I just couldn’t get my mojo happening. I was so f.ing tired, and I was not sick yet again with a bad cold. It’s so hard to tell what’s what. In any case, I switched to th... acidrefluxweb.com blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=2163588 Fri, 06 Feb 2009 03:41:10 +0100 2163588 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=2156455&cid=t_162354_135_f&fid=35274&url=http%3A%2F%2Facidrefluxweb.com%2F%3Fp%3D2499 I hate it when I take the wrong dolls! One definite tell-tale signs of being a d-list celebrity is when you mix your prescribed mood altering medications. For sure a-listers don’t accidently take their Lithium in the morning instead of the evening, and completely miss their anti-depressant in the morning. When do you ever hear of that? Patty Duke takes Lithium, do I need to say anymore. She probably f.s up the timing of the doses as well. Of course, this is what I did today. F. man I hate that. This is what I get for buying a pill box where the dark coloured side for AM, and the light coloured is inverted from the old one I had. Nearing 5 pm, I was starting to feel a little Anna-Nicole Smith like, and decided to check my pill box, and sure enough I took the evening instead of the morning... acidrefluxweb.com blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=2156455 Wed, 04 Feb 2009 02:20:12 +0100 2156455 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=1918644&cid=t_162354_177_f&fid=38134&url=http%3A%2F%2Fbabybound.wordpress.com%2F2008%2F10%2F29%2Fi-think-i-could-sell-my-pocket-lint-with-more-success%2F I was recently out on the town, mindin my own bidness when I rolled up on a street vendor with the most disturbing table of stolen shit for sale goods that I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to share. This, folks, is a 12 inch tall ceramic baby.  Not all that impressed yet?  Well, what if I was to tell you that this lovely little clay version of what we all long for was covered in what appears to be blood?  From head to toe. No?  Wow you are hard to please aren’t you. What if I was to throw in a picture of her little friend, Bullseye Brown With a bloody target in her forehead…. Nothing?  Well you are leaving me with no choice then.  Here it comes… And there lies the head of what was once their partner in crime, Shorty Stumperston.  Bloody, with a giant hol...

This round the topic is breastfeeding education. First, let’s start with a little breastfeeding education humor. The two adorable handmade Waldorf dolls shown in the photo were given to my daughters by their great aunt Sue. During yet another game of midwife, my three-year-old stuck these dolls together and said, “She’s breastmilking her baby. Breastmilking her!” Perhaps the term “breastmilking” should be added to the lactation lexicon! Back to the question at hand. What is the best way to educate mothers about breastfeeding? What is the best way to educate the general community about breastfeeding (so we don’t get comments like this one asking why a small business should have to provide a place ...

However, later on, when Mother experienced the more advanced sta...

And it seems that even though she has been a type 2 diabetic for quite some time, it doesn’t mean she is a very swift diabetic… It seems that Ms. Berry has ticked off many diabetics in the world. Take this with a grain of salt. As I have told you before I love celebrity news so I found this while searching one of my fave websites, as embarrassing as it is… Perez Hilton. Yes, I am THAT person. The actress has been quoted saying that she was a Type 1 diabetic but now she has been able to ween herself off insulin to be a Type 2. SOMETHING THAT IS NOT POSSIBLE.   Pregnant HALLE BERRY is winning her battle with diabetes, thanks to a healthy diet and good living. The actress was...
