    Airplane Travel Motion Sickness

    My doctor recommended this to me for future plane rides. I have used it twice. It's like a miracle drug for me. It works great. But you are correct. It's not cheap.

    Spinal injections for pain

    Forget the shots. I had several myself and they lasted only a short while. Boston Scientific has an instrument out called a Spinal Cord Stimulator. You wear it on the outside of your back for a week and if it takes away the pain, the surgeon implants it. If it doesn't, he disconnects the leads...

    Husband with depression has become nothing but a "people pleaser".

    Write to Dr. Phil. Maybe he will get you two on the show and he will be able to give you both some guidance. His real profession is a Life Coach. Sounds like something you both could use.

    Suppose you won the lottery. What would you change?

    I won the Florida Lotto once and I earned enough to keep me alive for the rest of my years. You have to pick 6 out of 53 numbers. My life didn’t change tremendously, but it did change some. I had my own business and I did very well, so I really didn’t need a bunch more money. Most of it I used...

    What if you were given a "do over"

    My psychiatrist once told me there’s nothing wrong with fantasizing, whether it’s the past of present. I live in real time. No good looking back and it’s ok to think ahead, but not live ahead. I had an old girlfriend call me a few years back. She started out the call with I was just thinking...

    Transgender affirming care banned in Oklahoma

    Why does it matter how many we are talking about? Whether it’s 100 or 100,000,000, it makes no difference. If you can change just one sex, you change 1,000,000.

    Transgender affirming care banned in Oklahoma

    Well, that’s not quite true Gene-editing in humans and plants is being done on an experimental basis. By doing doing gene-editing, scientists can target harmful mutations and correct or remove targeted genes to prevent or exclude some diseases. It’s kind of like doing engineering on COVID-19...

    Transgender affirming care banned in Oklahoma

    I never wanted to be a girl. Never even gave it a thought. In fact, if anyone (kids) called me a sissy, I was ready to fight.

    Unvaxxed discrimination?

    Between the vaccines and the Russia-Ukraine war, I did pretty good in the market. A friend if mine is a high market trader, meaning that he buys large blocks of stocks when he buys. When the government first started talking about shutting the country down, he advised me to buy as much gaming...

    Michael J Fox New interview maintaining Optimism

    The younger you are when the disease is found, the chances of living longer are greater. I cried when he came out on stage to speak to the large group we were able to amass and before he spoke. I was surprised to see him come out on stage in a wheelchair, but then got up and walked about 20 feet...

    Michael J Fox New interview maintaining Optimism

    There are different levels or types of Parkinson’s. I saw the interview with him on CBS, I believe it was. I had 2 uncles, both of my mom’s brothers died from Parkinson’s. That doesn’t make me an expert on the disease, but it has been discussed in our home for many hours. Both brothers had the...
