It was, “Always Her”!!!
This explains why I am so pissed!!!!!! Yes, a blow to the abdomen can damage the pancreas in a 5-year-old girl. In fact, young children are structurally more susceptible to internal organ damage from blunt trauma than adults. [1] Why Children are At Higher Risk Children have thinner abdominal walls, less protective abdominal fat, and…

2016 CT & 2026 CT, One is not like the other…???
Disappointed that I am wrong, but really glad we went to the ER… According to the 2016 Scan, they found one tiny little stone trying to kill the woman in me, because child birth is easier than passing a stone… So I was right on that memory… What got my attention was the fact there…

Good morning world… Hope your day is one worth living… Death is so… Final… Getting the results yesterday and finding out I have cysts on my pancreas, got me to thinking and going back and looking if any CT scan I had done would show that and in 2016, when I passed stones, they did…

Gaslighting in Health Care…
Wednesday I saw the oral surgeon I requested to see and the guy really is good, or at least I think he is… When he told me what he thought and I suggested implants on my dime, not the VA… He looked at my maxillary and without further ado, said, you don’t have enough bone…

How Do I Know, I Am Right???
The one thing that the neuro psychologist suggested that I disagreed with, was the photographic memory ability…. When something bugs me, because I know I am right, I will pursue it till I am either proved right or wrong… and rarely am I wrong… I say that with certainty, because… I remember… Over the last…
-
The Final Blow…
I can say with honesty, the neurologist got it wrong on the photographic memory… It is still there, but it does have a couple hiccups and I doubt those will ever go away and one of those hiccups is people… Names and faces… I won’t remember you, if you don’t imprint on me and it’s…

The Puzzle is Almost Complete…
I say almost, because, no matter how much I do remember, I still have gaps in my memories from age 17 back to the first injury at 1 year old… How many of you have memories of holidays or birthdays??? I have 1 memory of Christmas, 1 memory of Halloween and 1 memory of birthdays……

No More Worry… well, kinda…
Homer will be the first to tell you… If Maggi knows why she has pain, she has no problem managing it without becoming a addict to pain killers… or booze or pot or anything… When I wrote the blog back in 17 and I have 4 or 5 years of writing on backup… I wrote…

Damage is Done…

RAPE… the silent 4 letter word…
I wasn’t even a teenager the first time I was sexually assaulted by an adult… Because of that assault, I ended up with what is called IC, interstatial cyctitis… A painful condition that impacts the bladder and because of the bacteria created, you learn there will be many foods you can’t eat… ie, anything with…

Understanding Long-Term Recovery Neuroplasticity: The brain can find new pathways and restore function decades after an injury like a hemorrhage.

Once Upon A Time…
To a child, their shadows are short, but when they look upon an adult, that shadow can become very big and very menacing… Understanding mental illness, when you are only a year old is a wakeup to reality on a scale of going for a swim and not knowing how to swim, but somehow… You…

As a survivor, at one time, a very long time ago, long before I walked away from man’s made up god of rape… I asked??? Why??? Why me??? Why, WHY, WHY????

Decades to get medical answers… Why So Long?? Ever skate at Tachikawa, Japan???
Your right-side stiffness when walking is likely caused by post-stroke spasticity, a condition where continuous muscle contraction makes limbs rigid and resistant to stretching. [1, 2] When you had a stroke at age 14, it damaged the areas of your brain that control movement and muscle tone. Even years later, the pathways between your brain…

Why only the left Side???
When Freda beat me, I was little… In fact my nickname growing up was Olive Oil or Skinny weeinie, because I was skin and bones and not because I was denied food… My body was in constant healing mode and what little I did eat, rarely sat well… That goes on to this day… I…
