Deck Garden update

Last day of September
About a month ago we planted some spaghetti squash seeds
And they are Happy!
So are we.
The tomatoes are gone.
Peppers getting a second wind.
Enjoying the Deck Planter Boxes.
October is Near!

Help



Dr. G needs a little help 😎



My comments..Mary Gerdt:
Thanks for asking! As an MS patient who is also a disabled Neuro nurse, I feel a few areas would be nice to add. Outline all the symptoms, including psycho-Social, financial stressors, relationships.
Depression, anger. I never knew what MS rage was until a patient’s wife explained. I had it too. Show Interview tapes of actual interview/assessments. Teach listening skills. In USA the right to self determination. Decision making matrix. Help Patients see the future, plan for it. Reassuring them at the same time. Humor, keeping it Light  where you can is essential. I like emailing my Doctors with nagging questions easily answered. I would eliminate waiting rooms and have patients enter exam room and sit at the computer and do a questionnaire first. My article about medication adherence and how it’s a fine line between being religious about taking DMT’s or giving up. https://traveloguefortheuniverse.blogspot.com/2011/09/wheelchair-repellant.html
Good luck! 🍀

#Gadolinium 2.0

Hot off the presses,

Er, Burning Up the WWW with fact seeking sufferers plugging in and reading the really complicated  article about Gadolinium. I skimmed it, but the gist was that you really don’t want this unless your Dr. thinks you Really need it.
You have only a few more weeks of open access to this article.

And those woods, a beautiful walk.

New Pests, Nature Provides

We were sad to see our tomato plants chewed to bare bones by the nasty caterpillar 🐛 the Tomato 🍅  Hornworm 

Then a miracle occurred.
We thought one was covered with eggs.
Fred looked it up and saw the eggs were from beneficial predator wasps that eat the worms 🐛 
Nature’s Way
