I finally walked out on the most-respected alternative doc in town when she told me forcefully to drink only one quart of water a day, and that before noon, so I could sleep through the night without getting up to go to the bathroom, an act that didn't even bother me - it's what old people do. I was already in kidney failure at that time. It was crazy. Saw two others more briefly. Spent over $3,000 of our own money on acupuncture last year with a very respectable Chinese doctor. And also, earlier times, an Ayurvedic practitioner. I've found that nothing helped as much as a good laugh or time with good friends, and I'm kind of worn out with alternatives. :) Thank you for caring.Jeanne Desyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07800258273705288582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7123326368423499292.post-30402559536702419042012-04-12T09:50:24.557-04:002012-04-12T09:50:24.557-04:00Yes, I'm having a hard time coming to terms w...Yes, I'm having a hard time coming to terms with this death business myself (insert winky face). Bleh. Well, you've still been doing your meditation? Jeanne, have you ever gone to a naturopath or one of those people who tell you exactly what you should or shouldn't eat, and what kinds of "natural" things you can take to feel at all better? I wonder if they would be able to do anything..I don't have complete faith in modern medicine.karensomethingorotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14476544335741075497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7123326368423499292.post-59566020783399066212012-04-10T17:29:59.032-04:002012-04-10T17:29:59.032-04:00So we try to take care of our bodies and souls whi...So we try to take care of our bodies and souls while taking care of others and all the while there is beauty and parts of ourselves that stay well through the dis-ease. Thank you for the reminder about the breaths and the ayurvedic approach to wellness. May you cool the fire and may you be surrounded by peace in the midst of this challenging human existence.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11784351916601088583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7123326368423499292.post-62133399639953229302012-04-10T15:21:26.200-04:002012-04-10T15:21:26.200-04:00Great picture!Great picture!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
