Maggie's FarmWe are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for. |

Wednesday, April 3. 2024Much Sorry with DelaysAs I mentioned, I want to write more as my system continues or alters. Sadly, it's been nuts for slightly over 2 weeks with a lot going on. I can share information or a few things, because it's been mostly good, but there are a few items. 1. Due to Chemo and Radiology daily (5 days) I have seen my health drop. Not significantly, but enough to definitely feel awful. Nausea, then treated. Weakness, handled by some improvements which manage a bit more extensively. The last 2 weeks allow the assistance of steroid assistance allowed in lower levels. Headaches higher the past 3 days. Treatments allowed in higher levels. As mentioned, my hair is long cut (and I'll share my lovely look now lately). 2. Overall feeling better in treatment as weekly doctor meeting have opened the assistance and treatment gains. Greatly appreciated. I have been in the city twice over 4 years, will add tomorrow and next week - though weakness is down slightly. 3. Radiology lost one day due to errors wasting 3 hours waiting last week - my day shifted by one day so my last day is 4/15 Monday - but I am heading immediately to leave Mrs. Bulldog behind as her parents will allow me to resolve in FL as I'll need restness and softness at the local beach. It will be helpful. Great to have healthy in-laws.
4. Sleeping more. Recieved an in-law pantreatic cancer (her days are far more shorter, possibly, than mine as her develops shift). She has ultra Cannabis edible, which my doctor has recommended a prescript for me - that will arrive by tomorrow. His goal? Improved head ness and sleeping. My in-law gave me some of hers to try hers per my doctors estimate. I tried one by accident, after trying she laughed and said "I meant 1/2 that size" - oops. I did not hear that. The full one didn't hit for 2 hours. Then I drove to buy something at the store - and after arriving I had the worst possible reaction and had to drive home slowly and frightened. Everyone laughed at me - and I simply fell asleep for 3 hours. I woke up and felt like I was so tired...but feeling better. Main benefit - great sleep, better carpal syndrome reduced and the size needs to be smaller. Since then I've shifted to 1/4 size day time, no effect but better carpal reduction furthering. As of today, and a 1/2 one full hour before dinner, I have had 8 hour sleeping and complete reduction and removal of my carpal summit issues. Gone completely. The steroids do assist a bit. 5. I had a list of several things. Some emails on work cleared out (done), some emails had (done), taxes (done finally) from 2023, clear out lawn (mostly done for timing), all printing of dirty clothing, clearing old working, updating Quicken lists from January so can hand all to my wife so she can manage as my age slims due to the disease, etc. So far almost all needs done finally. Just a few minors left. Writing fell behind. 6. Met with my pastor. It was excellent. He will have me speak to HS students after May when a nurse/nun reviews me. I am also joining him for a dinner with local doctors and some short-life potentials to have a discussion about death and how to discuss or move it forward. Pastors I have met at Catholic have been a very good team - looking forward to speaking with a Rabbi. 7. News - let's just keep it simply laid out. Journalism is a media disaster full of lies and nonsense. Watched 60 Min the other night and was stunned at the lies which I KNOW were had. I had covered some of that prior to another group 3 months ago - and it's clear they are lying and making nonsense up to try and support Biden and lie massively about Russia (I checked with one radiology I have who is Russian and she claimed it was 100% false and full of lies). It's worth noting she hates Putin, as do my several coPoker players who are Russian - but even they admit they don't like Putin but USA coverage is full off lies and nonsense to support Ukraine, which they'd prefer to have dealt with effectively but Biden avoided to start a war. It was clear. Biden wasn less inclined to resolve the problems there and 2 Ukrainians I have (one family, one helping with my house) admit they too hate Putin and the invasion but knew the claim they left Ukraine for was that Russia would invasion as USA refused to discuss openly with Russia. So I agree with that as 2 USA student neighbors, who I play tennis with, WARNED me of a lot of this after they snuck in from Moldova to watch portions before the invasion and then returned to see a town shortly after invasion. They claimed USA falsehoods and danger were large and caused by Ukrainian NAZIs who were clearly very visible and they showed me their personal pictures from their visit. They kept these personally to avoid government stealing their products as they were in college and did not want problems before they got home and they openly decleared Biden is a complete disaster if you go there as they did and saw what they did. Not that Russia is worth it or willint to support them. Just remain open about misleading by USA. 8. A few concerts coming that I will take in. I am a long fan of Madness. Saw them (Elvis Costello slipped in) in 1983 in London. Will see them again. Neil Young in Forest Hills in May, and Rolling Stones in NJ shortly after. I am trying to fit in English Beat and Adam Ant this weekend in NYC. The Pretenders in July in Red Bank, NJ possible, as is Bruce Springsteen in Asbury. LOTS TO GO and take in what I can!! Some expensive - but for me, if I'm going, I'll enjoy the albums I have past in the earlier years! Thats just a few items. One last thing. I return to my work on 4/22, then have a vacation 2 weeks later and I am cleared for that. But when I return from vacation I will get my MRI test review, AND will get to take part of a new test in vaccine treatment - a CHANCE to expand my opportunity. One attender with me on Radiology is 55, 7 years younger than me, but lives near me. Right side, non-methylated. Upon me warning him that issues of Cancer, but of a larger example of Glib Blastone showing larger numbers since 2020 or so - the tie to Covid but MORE IMPORTANTLY THE HIGH LEVEL OF Covid Vaccine seem to have caused more Cancer issues. Ours certainly has begun to suggest this, as well. He was stocked, but looked up what I suggested and he agreed - the Daily Mail from UK was covering issues showing higher Cancer increases likely due to Covid Vaccine and it seems doctors (per my calls) have all claimed "not related and won't be invested". I suggest there is a massive problem of this which needs to be reviewed as it is clear that pharmaceutical is a massive problem on several levels - mainly Covid Vaccine damages (and catching it despite claims you should be reduced but I have met most people in the hospital after it) but also knowing people have heart issues welcoming known related to the Covid Vaccine - and I DO BELIEVE various Cancers may have been impacted. It requires reduction to make the claim intact. I do not believe there is a good reason to not investigate because I can assure you the 5 people I have met (30-62) who have what I have right or left, ALL HAD COVID VACCINE. Willing that is the key point - like to suggest non vaccine getting members who are no the same as me are more likely to avoid what achieved me and others. So yes, I'm still digging quite a bit. I continue to dig. I even use Meta AI - and they claimed my information FALSE - that nobody posted such an article. I posted the Daily Mail example and Meta AI called it false and not worth reading. So clearly Meta AI (and others) are being destroyed to push dangerous ideas and make people think they are "fixing" things. I have cancelled and blocked Meta AI for its length of mistreatment and claims which were great and terrible - remain open to options to avoid AI when possible. Trackbacks

Thanks for the update--was wondering how you are doing. DEFINITELY see The English Beat if you can--they put on an absolutely great show, and Dave Wakeling is a helluva guy.
Hang in there--we're all pulling for you. All the best Bulldog. Pictures are truly worth thousands of words. My heart aches for you; all cancer battlers. Many prayers.
I was diagnosed w Stage IIIb Cancer last March. Cancer free right now with three separate biopsies. Heavy radiation and chemo, (I estimate 650,000 mgs) over seven months. What a ride. I read your note with great familiarity. I am a daily reader of yours. Send me a note if you wish to talk via email or phone.
Will try to reach out to you I've been overloaded recently
HAHAHA the hair issues causes it to fall off lately so it's a bit harder to wear.
Thanks for the update I was wondering how you were doing. Please keep posting your thoughts on media deception and on the cancer covid connection and other insights. I'm curious why some of us can see the deception and some are oblivious. I know someone my age who wears a big 4" Biden button every day. I don't get it.
Let's see.
I lived several years while he was "growing up" and after he left he attended law school prior to my arrival at Syracuse University. He was NEVER well liked. Not in the Poconos and not at Syracuse - some people fall for his BS and other nonsense. But most smart people have known him to be a lying criminal full of crap most of his life and career. We can't wait for his family to be exposed eventually. He has never been well liked in PA - that's why he wet to Delaware...easier for him to survive there. |
