I am longing to visit myself.<BR/><BR/>I am told that if you take 3 tablespoons of olive oil with the juice of a lemon before bed and again on waking that this softens gallstones and allows them to pass into the stool - look for them. You can use grapefruit juice instead. Maybe, worth a try to avoid surgery.<BR/><BR/>Loved the manogran! I debate the value of mammograms, again worth doing some research, perhaps look at Dr. Mercola's website. I understand they can cause more harm than good so have taken a decision to avoid them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20252511.post-58271280405747894552007-06-22T04:06:00.000+12:002007-06-22T04:06:00.000+12:00Damn, I forgot to say that I hope your mom gets be...Damn, I forgot to say that I hope your mom gets better really soon.

Sometimes it has nothing to do with it, it could be that your regulars have been too busy to visit for a few days, or just that one doesn't always feel qualified to make a knowledgeable comment, and it feels lame to keep saying "lovely" over and over....or are just having a "lurking day". You are the best judge of your work, you know when it works and when it is lacking, so be true to your intuition, and don't be swayed by the perverseness of the ethernet!<BR/>We love you Shirl.... don't despair!Suzi-khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00338300048993883066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20252511.post-11814037457705376822007-06-21T19:43:00.000+12:002007-06-21T19:43:00.000+12:00Hope your Mum is on the mend soon.

Pancreatitis can be a long term & recurring illness. I hope they can nip it in the bud for her. It's not fun. Maybe they can unplug the duct with an ERCP, then get gall bladder out laproscopically, (much nicer than the old fashioned 9 inch scar like I have).<BR/><BR/>I love cats too. So if I go to that zoo would they let me pet the cheetah, or do you have a special connection?<BR/><BR/>I think your simple square quilt is a perfect beginner quilt, it's just not as exciting as what you ususally do. Kind of like the rag quilt I just made for my grand-baby. Very simple, not exciting, not a prise winner, but just what it needs to be. No shame in purpose!<BR/><BR/>I like the name of the bird you mentioned on my blog.Pied stilts? Just sounds fun.Deb Hardmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01538758042536664177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20252511.post-47659916402942136592007-06-19T20:54:00.000+12:002007-06-19T20:54:00.000+12:00Great present for your mom!I wish her wellnessGreat present for your mom!<BR/><BR/>I wish her wellnessAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20252511.post-38321552416530077542007-06-19T20:12:00.000+12:002007-06-19T20:12:00.000+12:00Great photo - that must've been an amazing experie...Great photo - that must've been an amazing experience for her.
