Violence against nurses on the rise in British Columbia

By Raina Delisle, Special Advertising Feature Global News

**WARNING: Some images may be disturbing to viewers.

When a physiotherapist asked Vancouver General Hospital nurse Virna Bation to take an elderly patient for a walk around the halls to stretch her legs and avoid bedsores, she immediately agreed, knowing it was best for the patient. In turn, Bation recruited a care aide and another nurse to help her clean up the incontinent woman before the exercise.
“When we approached her, she was very nice,” recalls Bation, who has been nursing for more than three decades. “But suddenly, she became very, very aggressive.” The patient kicked the other nurse in the stomach and bit down hard on Bation’s thumb, ripping through her skin and sending her to the emergency department. “The pain was really excruciating: throbbing, pulsating.”
After receiving several stitches, Bation went home and didn’t go back to work for more than three months. “Emotionally, physically, and socially, I was really distraught,” she says. “It impacted my whole person. When I remember what happened, I feel shaky.”

When Bation put her scrubs back on and returned to the hospital, she had trouble writing in patient charts due to the damage to her thumb. She has since modified the way she holds the pen.
Bation was attacked nearly two years ago, but still thinks about the incident daily. “It’s impacted me a lot. But as the time goes by, maybe I can recover.”
Bation’s case is not unique. Every day, nurses across British Columbia suffer violence in the workplace and the number of incidents is on the rise. According to WorkSafeBC, the overall injury rate due to workplace violence increased over 50 per cent from 2006 to 2015, and the health care and social services subsector had a significantly higher injury rate than others. Workers in this subsector accounted for a whopping 61 per cent of workplace violence claims. In the past decade, 9,231 injury claims due to violence have been accepted from health care and social services workers—that’s nearly three injuries a day.

“Violence against nurses is a significant issue in B.C. and it’s not just restricted to the emergency department,” says Gayle Duteil, president of the B.C. Nurses’ Union (BCNU). “It affects nurses every day and in every worksite. Things need to change. If nurses aren’t safe, patients aren’t safe.”
When it comes to nurses, there’s chronic underreporting of violent incidents, Duteil adds, highlighting that 85 per cent of workers injured from acts of violence are women.
“Often when it is reported, the manager comes back and says, ‘What could you have done differently?’” she says. “This is like blaming the spouse for getting beaten. We need to educate our management, our stakeholders and our nurses that violence is not part of the job and it’s not their fault.”
BCNU is calling on the government and health authorities to improve working conditions for nurses. The union would like to see trained security personnel at sites 24/7, enhanced education in workplace violence and legislated changes to the criminal code for harsher sentences for those who perpetrate violence against nurses.
BCNU would also like community nurses, who visit patients in their homes, to be equipped with personal alarms. “They’re alone and they vulnerable,” Duteil points out. “Nobody checks on their safety or their whereabouts.”
Duteil says implementing hands-off Code Whites is also a priority. Code White is an emergency code used in the hospital to notify staff of a violent patient. BCNU doesn’t want nurses to be expected to respond to dangerous situations and put themselves at risk.
“Nurses’ jobs do not include taking down patients. Full stop,” says Duteil, who faced several acts of violence herself when she was a frontline nurse, including having blood thrown at her. “We go to biology, anatomy and physiology courses—we don’t go to take-down-patient courses.”

Another major concern, Duteil says, is that after nurses experience violence on the job, many never return to work. That’s been the case for Rhonda Bennett, whose jaw was dislocated when a patient punched her from behind while she was trying to help the individual back into bed.
That was in November 2014, and today she still can’t open her mouth wide enough to eat a hamburger or chew crunchy foods such as baby carrots, one of her favourite snacks.
“I want to go to work. I want to feel safe,” says Bennett, who also had a coffee mug thrown at her and was threatened with scissors in separate incidents. “I want to be able to take care of people and not worry about getting my jaw dislocated.”
Bennett attempted a gradual return to work at Vancouver General Hospital in June 2015, but on her first day back, she experienced violence yet again. An irate patient stormed up to the nurses’ station and lunched into a tirade, swearing and threatening her.
Due to anxiety, Bennett had a hard time sleeping before shifts and knew it wouldn’t be safe for her to practice. Today, she is pursuing a master’s of science in nursing at the University of British Columbia and is on educational leave from her job.
“Becoming physically or verbally violent with your caregiver is not acceptable,” Bennett says. “If you were going to see a bank teller, it wouldn’t be acceptable to start yelling and screaming and physically lashing out. Hopefully we can get the government and other players on board to find better ways to reduce violence and support health care staff. We can’t afford to be losing nurses right now.”

I just got in From the Garden

I just got in from the garden. I finally planted my seeds to mini pots, and will keep them indoors for a few weeks before planting them outside. I even cut the grass for the first time, since rain is in the forecast again for tomorrow. I was only able to pull the mower, and not push it. I have tons of moss, and don't know how to improve the small plot of grass, since my back yard primarily has wood chips. See Back to Eden Gardening if you are a newcomer to my blog. I put sulfate under my blueberries, and honeysuckles, and hydrangeas. I put dolomite under some of the trees, and the grass. The time passed quickly outdoors. I kept pushing myself to accomplish more, while reminding myself that God was the exquisite Chief Gardener. I am using the laundry room under the staircase to store the freshly planted seeds, where Tiger our cat sleeps, and has been kept warm in this big winter we have had. I will put the heat on for the plants and the cats in the evening, so hopefully, the benefits will be plentiful.
My married daughter has gone to Seattle on a train for the weekend. I drove them to the skytrain, at 5 am and they left, despite the landslides reported a few days ago, along the tracks. They are traveling business class thanks to my son-in-laws place of work, gesture of appreciation. He has worked so many weekends, I can't even recall. A well deserved rest is due for them.
My pre occupation now, after a shower is to proof read, and edit where I can a new book that my friend Stephen Steinman is writing. It is 500 pages long, and have been interrupted too many times to finish the book. Remarkably in one afternoon I got to page 200 already. This book is so good, that after the Pilgrim's Progress, and of course the Bible (Number One of all Time Ever) , this book called The Mystery will be a most thorough, and incredible display of end times Prophecy. Steve goes back and forth from Old to New Testament, using often the Wycliffe Bible, one of the most original translations to clarify things that modern day teaching has sadly misunderstood.
Just to give you an example of a paragraph that he wrote:
" On 9/10/th day of Tishri, Yom Kippur known as the day of Atonement will see the completion of the 40th Jubilee since Jeus ascended into Heaven, 2300 days following the Bull's Eye Blood Moon of June 14/15, 2011. According to Daniel 8:14 this is the day the sanctuary is to be cleansed Jesus was Tempted by Satan during his 40 day wilderness fast. There were 40 days in which it rained during the great flood of Noah. It was 40 day's after Jesus arose from the dead, that He ascended into Heaven."

Isn't that incredible??and just like Jesus ascended so we will be caught up in the air...!!!!
So, I may take a day or so to finish his yet unpublished book. He is working on 3 all together by the way. The urgency is on to get then all finished. The bible is 1/3 prophecy, and we are living it, my friends.. The Fig Tree Generation.

Funny followed by something Serious

This reminds me of a poem I heard recently: (Did not president Trump quote it, when he spoke of illegal migrants?)

On her way to work one morning
Down the path along side the lake
A tender hearted woman saw a poor half frozen snake
His pretty colored skin had been all frosted with the dew
"Oh well," she cried, "I'll take you in and I'll take care of you"
"Take me in oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman, " sighed the snake

She wrapped him up all cozy in a curvature of silk
And then laid him by the fireside with some honey and some milk
Now she hurried home from work that night as soon as she arrived
She found that pretty snake she'd taking in had been revived
"Take me in, oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman, " sighed the snake
Now she clutched him to her bosom, "You're so beautiful," she cried
"But if I hadn't brought you in by now you might have died"
Now she stroked his pretty skin and then she kissed and held him tight
But instead of saying thanks, that snake gave her a vicious bite
"Take me in, oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman, " sighed the snake
"I saved you," cried that woman
"And you've bit me even, why?
You know your bite is poisonous and now I'm going to die"
"Oh shut up, silly woman," said the reptile with a grin
"You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in
"Take me in, oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman, " sighed the snake

Radon gas in Calgary-area Homes, Dangerous Levels

Radon gas at dangerous levels in 1 in 8 Calgary-area homes, study finds

Testing for odorless gas is easy, and remediation techniques work well, University of Calgary researchers say

By John Gibson, CBC News Posted: Mar 29, 2017 12:33 PM MT Last Updated: Mar 30, 2017 5:50 AM MT

Deadly radon gas was found at unacceptably high levels in one out of eight homes in the Calgary area, according to a new study published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal.
Researchers at the University of Calgary's Cumming School of Medicine tested radon gas levels in more than 2,300 homes in Calgary, Cochrane, Airdrie, Okotoks, High River and Redwood Meadows.
The results show the known cancer-causing gas is a growing public health concern in southern Alberta, said the study's lead author, Aaron Goodarzi.
"Every region we looked at had houses above 200 becquerels per cubic metre," he said. "Beyond that, cancer risk is very certain and homeowners are advised strongly to mitigate their home."

Fintan Stanley, left, and Aaron Goodarzi, right, at the Cumming School of Medicine found that one in eight Calgary homes exceed Health Canada’s acceptable radon level, a radioactive gas that has been linked to lung cancer. (Riley Brandt)

A becquerel is the unit scientists use to measure the number of radioactive decays of radon atoms. According to Health Canada, the acceptable level of radon in the average home is 200 becquerels per cubic metre (200 Bq/m³), while the World Health Organization sets the acceptable level at 100 becquerels per cubic metre (100 Bq/m³).
Goodarzi said one in two Calgary-area homes are in "the danger zone" with levels over 100 becquerels per cubic metre.

Homes tested for 90 days

Radon gas arises from the radioactive decay of radium, thorium and uranium in the bedrock and soils and permeates through the soil under high pressure — toward low- or negative-pressurized areas such as basements, according to the study.
The homes examined, which included single-family, condos, duplexes and townhouses, were tested for 90 days between 2013 and 2016 and represented an area encompassing 82 per cent of the southern Alberta population.
Inhaling radon gas from indoor air exposes lung tissue to a "highly mutagenic form of ionizing radiation that damages DNA and increases the lifetime risk of lung cancer," the study said.
Roughly 2,000 Albertans are diagnosed with lung cancer annually. Fifteen per cent of those diagnosed have never smoked, according to the study.
The good news is that radon testing is simple and effective, and if mitigation is needed, there are some very effective strategies, Goodarzi said.

Easy testing, effective solutions

"I would encourage everyone living in southern Alberta to consider testing their homes for radon gas. You can't see it, or smell it. You don't know you're breathing it in unless you test for it," said Fintan Stanley, who co-wrote the study.
Testing should be done between October and April to get the most precise results, Goodarzi said. Radon test kits cost between $50 and $100 and are available at most local hardware stores.
Goodarzi and his team are also still looking for volunteers to test their homes as part of their research.
Homeowners who register radon levels over 200 Bq/m³ should take action.

"The most effective strategy is sub-slab depressurization, which really means you sink a little hole through the foundation of your home into the soil underneath and that gets hooked up to an air-tight fan that vents the radon up and outside."
Goodarzi said the mitigation devices so far have proven to be very long-lasting.
"For 90 homes with an average radon level of 575 Bq/m³ before mitigation, radon suppression successfully reduced levels to an average of 32.5 Bq/m³. In the most striking case, a level of 3441 Bq/m³ was reduced by 97.5 per cent to 86 Bq/m³," the study said.

Bigger the house, higher the ratings

Goodarzi said one of the surprising results of the study was that newer homes — built within the past 25 years — have 31.5 per cent higher radon, on average, compared to older properties.
The reason seems mostly to come down to size, he said.
"Our homes we're building today are simply much bigger than they ever have been in the past," he said.
"So, if you double the size of the home sitting on the ground, it's twice the surface area upon which the home can draw radon up inside it."
The increased height of modern houses also plays a role, he said.
"They basically act like taller chimneys, drawing more powerfully upon the ground. As you heat the air in a house, the hot air rises, it creates negative pressure in the basement that sucks on the foundation. The taller the home, the more powerful that effect."
Also, since modern homes are also more airtight, it's increasingly important to have the correct balance of air intake and outgoing air, to keep the house from sucking too much on the foundation and pulling up the radon, he said.

Can you make sense of this?

That is Trudeau leader of Canada. I heard from a hair dresser ( and they hear much good information) that many have voted for Trudeau, Muslim people that is, because his father in the 70's accepted them into this country. I hope many of these voters will make a change with the next election. I also immigrated in those years from Eastern Europe under the iron curtain. Immigration is in many ways appeasing the employers who find they can't get skilled workers. The myth about that is that these immigrant skilled workers have to start from scratch to be recognized as qualified Canadians with a degree. Their documentations are useless from abroad. I know a sweet Egyptian gynocologyst, who is still studying after several years of being here in order to be working as a doctor. Same thing with engineers and others. Therefore, Canada is lying to the public and to those coming into the country under the pretense of working in their field of expertise.

Expensive Drug to Treat Severe Multiple Sclerosis

F.D.A. Approves First Drug to Treat Severe Multiple Sclerosis

By KATIE THOMASMARCH 28, 2017

The Food and Drug Administration approved on Tuesday the first drug to treat a severe form of multiple sclerosis, offering hope to patients who previously had no other options to combat a relentless disease that leads to paralysis and cognitive decline.

The federal agency also cleared the drug to treat people with the more common, relapsing form of the disease.

“I think that this is a very big deal,” said Dr. Stephen Hauser, the chairman of the neurology department at the University of California, San Francisco, and leader of the steering committee that oversaw the late-stage clinical trials of the drug, ocrelizumab. “The magnitude of the benefits that we’ve seen with ocrelizumab in all forms of M.S. are really quite stunning.”

The drug, which will be sold under the brand name Ocrevus by Genentech, showed the most notable results in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis, appearing to halt progression of the disease with few serious side effects. In patients with the more severe form, primary progressive multiple sclerosis, the drug only modestly slowed patients’ decline, but medical experts described it as an important first step.

“This sort of opens the door for us,” said Dr. Fred D. Lublin, who was a crucial investigator for the clinical trial and is director of the Corinne Goldsmith Dickinson Center for Multiple Sclerosis at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York. “Once we open that door, then we do better and better and better. It’s a very encouraging result.”

Genentech, which is owned by the Swiss pharmaceutical giant Roche, said Tuesday that it would charge a list price of $65,000 a year, which — though expensive — is 25 percent less than an existing drug, Rebif, that was shown to be clinically inferior to Ocrevus in the two clinical trials that led to Ocrevus’s approval.

Rebif, sold in the United States by the German company EMD Serono, carries a list price of about $86,000. In a statement, Genentech noted that the price of drugs to treat multiple sclerosis had risen sharply in recent years.

“We feel that the industry needs to start to reverse this trend, and believe that pricing Ocrevus 25 percent less than the comparator in our trials is an important first step,” the company said.

Although people with the relapsing form of the disease have more than a dozen treatment options, many of the most effective drugs also come with significant side effects, which means that doctors often wait to prescribe them until a patient’s disease has advanced significantly. Ocrevus is viewed as relatively safe: Side effects included reactions at the injection site (the drug is infused every six months), and more upper respiratory infections and cold sores.

As a result, “it represents a new treatment option that has the potential to be used earlier,” said Dr. Peter Chin, the group medical director of neuroscience at Genentech, who was closely involved in developing the drug.

An estimated 400,000 people have multiple sclerosis in the United States, and about 15 percent have the primary progressive form of the disease.

In the trials that studied the relapsing form of the disease, which involved 1,656 patients, those taking Ocrevus saw a 47 percent reduction in their rate of relapses compared with patients who were taking an existing treatment, Rebif. In the clinical trial for people with primary progressive multiple sclerosis, which involved 732 patients, those on the drug had 24 percent less risk of their disability progressing compared with patients who were taking a placebo.

Ocrevus works by depleting a specific type of a patient’s B cells, which circulate in the blood and are part of the immune system. While they normally help the body fight off infections, they are believed to malfunction and contribute to central nervous system damage in people with multiple sclerosis.

“I think if the safety holds up, it will become the leading M.S. therapy,” said Dr. Steven L. Galetta, the chairman of the department of neurology at NYU Langone Medical Center, who is an expert in multiple sclerosis and who was not involved in the clinical trials. But, Dr. Galetta said, the medical community will be watching to see how the drug performs once it is widely available. The clinical trial showed a slightly heightened rate of tumors in patients with primary progressive multiple sclerosis, which he said needed to be monitored closely. “There can be side effects, but you just didn’t have enough patients initially to confirm that signal,” he said.

Jerrie Gullick, one of the patients who received Ocrevus in the clinical trial, said the drug had significantly slowed the progression of her primary progressive multiple sclerosis since she began taking it about three and a half years ago.

Ms. Gullick, who is 51, had been declining steadily since she learned she had the disease in 2010. At the time she learned she had multiple sclerosis, Ms. Gullick was an active 45-year-old who walked six miles a day between her home in Park Slope and her office in Downtown Brooklyn, where she worked as the chief financial officer of a technology start-up.

But her condition quickly deteriorated, and the drugs she was given appeared to do little to help her. She lost the ability to walk more than two to three blocks at a time, and she had to move out of her third-floor walk-up to an elevator building. Fatigue led her to leave her job, and she began to notice cognitive decline.

Ms. Gullick said that at first she hoped she was on the placebo because while she noticed her disease slowing, her condition did not improve. “From a patient perspective, what you want is to get back what you’ve lost,” Ms. Gullick said. “What this drug seems to do is to stop what was happening.”

Now, she said, she is thankful that Ocrevus appears to have bought her more time. “I was figuring another five years, and I was going to be bed-bound, and one day I realized I might have 20 or 30 more years of this,” she said. “It’s like I was on a bullet train, and I was transferred to a local.”

The Broom Brush has Blossomed

The Broom brush has blossomed. It is pouring buckets today. Some mud slides along the train tracks have stopped trains from going from Vancouver to Seattle. There are a few signs of springs, the budding of certain trees, and even early rhododendrons. The daffodils will be out in the next day or so. The Japanese cherry blossoms are not out, and my Japanese student left without seeing the mature trees on my street. There is an emptiness in my home. I miss the student. Perhaps I miss being as busy.
Deborah's room is empty once again. We are washing sheets, and vacuuming. I spoke with a friend who said that surely all the time, and effort we put into having a student stay with us, is hardly compensated. So I've come to realize it as a ministry of witnessing to foreign students. God knows Japan has so few Christians. I made sure to point her to the truth; the four steps to salvation in Japanese. I showed her some christian churches in Japan with the lovely worship on youtube.

Everything will be clean for Passover. I have not been corresponding with Deborah's friends, perhaps their obligations do not allow it. I can't tell you how many times I thought we would be enjoying the last leg of Lamb for Passover, but we must track along no matter how we feel. God said He would not give us more than we can bear. This Jubilee year will be special, no matter how sad we may be.

March 27, 2017

Canada’s government is finally introducing long-promised legislation to make recreational marijuana legal across the country. The new law, likely to add to the country’s “liberal haven” reputation, could be in place in time for Canadians to celebrate Canada’s 151st birthday, on July 1, 2018, if not sooner.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government will lay out plans to legalize the drug next month, as early as April 10, according to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. (One rumor says it may be April 20, or 4/20—a date with significance to weed enthusiasts.) The law would reportedly give power to the provinces to establish prices, while making the federal government responsible for the drug’s safety. Canadians would also be allowed to grow pot at home, but be limited to four plants per household.
The legislation ought to sail through Parliament with little opposition, since it has broad support from the left and right. Before news of the Liberal legislation broke, Trudeau and his party were facing criticism from the left-leaning New Democrats Party (NDP) for running a “cynical campaign” in 2015, when Trudeau promised to make recreational pot legal if elected. The NDP, which is pro-legalization, charged that the pledge was designed to attract young voters and that the Liberals had no intention of following through with the proposal.
And in a surprising softening of its tone on marijuana laws, the leader of the Conservative Party last year also leaned on the Liberals to enact the law, saying it was necessary to begin regulating pot to keep kids from buying it illegally from prescription dispensaries. The federal government would set the legal minimum age to purchase pot at 18, though provinces could set a higher limit.
Already, storefront dispensaries in Toronto, Vancouver, and other cities have been selling pot to those who have a prescription. Some even offer live video-conference appointments with a remote doctor who could write that prescription. Periodically, the dispensaries would be raided by police, but they quickly re-opened.
Legal pot is not expected to bring eye-popping tax revenues for the federal government— at least not in the first year or so. A report from the Parliamentary Budget Officer released last fall suggested that the change would lead to about $618 million in taxes when first enacted, but said that number would likely grow as the industry and market mature. Trudeau has said that the money raised should go toward drug education, addiction programs, and mental health support.
In a recent poll, 51% of Canadians said they supported legalizing marijuana, and 33% said they opposed it. Some 14% of respondents were totally chill, holding no strong opinion either way.

Sparkling Deborah Poem By Lanny Townsend

Poem by Lanny Townsend used by permission, and read at her funeral by her 3 surviving sisters,
Elizabeth, Erica and Sarah.

Sparkling Deborah

Deborah of the sparkling eyes, deep dimples, and dazzling smile,

What were you thinking, dear girl, when you went through your last trial?

You left us clues, as you searched the Bible to soothe your cares;

Highlighted verses are windows to your thoughts, witnesses to your prayers.

We are comforted that, though you stumbled and fell,

You looked to Jesus to save you from sin and Hell.

He forgave you; we know that it is true;

He came into your heart, with its walls that were painted blue.

Such a sad, sad heart, such a troubled mind,

Triggered by a drug that promised good times you’d find.

You yearned to be accepted and to have fun with your friends,

And became deceived, like many, by youthful trends.

Jesus spared your life, after drugs sent you in a spin.

And gave you time to repent of each besetting sin.

You reached for His hand, and He led you through His Word;

Twice you read His Book, and much in it you heard.

What a comfort to us now, to see the words you underlined.

And know that your name in the Book of Life is signed;

Written there by the blood of Jesus Christ, our Lord;

We know His grace and mercy, upon you He has poured.

You were just starting to walk the path of the wise,

And were too unlearned to discern the deceiver’s lies.

You thought that waters of baptism would your confusion all unwind,

And instantly produce a miracle of healing for your mind.

Significant and powerful, baptism is indeed,

But it is through faith that we get what we need.

It is not through feelings, nor experiences, nor the reasoning of our brain,

But through constant trust in God’s Word, the victory we gain.

God understands what drove you to the decision you would make,
And allowed the enemy of your soul, your precious life to take.

But He did not let him keep it, when you plunged into the water;

He caught you in His arms, His beloved, redeemed daughter.

Now you live in Heaven, where all your fears are washed away;

And you are free to love and laugh and play.

Though our heart sorrows for the loss of our dear girl,

We know you are now safe within the gates of pearl.

We cherish memories, of how you loved cookie dough ice cream,

And how you could sing and play music like a dream.

Your favourite colours were blue and pink, and you liked the dollar mart;

Pink roses and red roses, and perfume charmed your heart.

You had a photographic memory, and a photogenic face;

Your athletic ability and energy set a lively pace.

Swimming was a favourite sport, and chess a favourite game;

Which your Grandpa taught you because you were such a clever dame.

But kindness was part of you, and generosity, as well.

And humour, too, for silly jokes you liked to hear and tell.

Family and friends were high priorities on your list;

Oh, dear girl, how sorely you will be missed!

But when the tears start to run, we will wipe them with a smile,

As we remember the blessing you were, when we had you for a while.

We will think of you when we hear Hillsong’s tunes,

And when spring returns each year with its pretty blooms.

We will recall how you organized our closets and our drawers,

And how you loved dogs and kittens and willingly did your chores.

Brindle pup and Moonshine kitty will join you in Heaven someday;

Look after them for us, Deborah, until we come Home to stay.

Let our family circle be unbroken in that celestial realm;

We know our ship will make it, as long as we keep Jesus at the helm.

We don’t fully understand God’s ways or know all His plans,

But everything will work out, as we remain in His strong hands.

We will look into our Saviour’s eyes, and all our pain will be no more,

As it is now for you, gazing upon Him whom you adore.

Revel in His embrace, as you to dance among the stars above;

We release you to His tender care and never ending love.

My daughter's second baptism

I just got home from driving the Japanese student to school. Tomorrow will be their last day in Canada. She does want to come back and visit, and has enjoyed her time here. I met a family who has done home stay for 5 years, and now they are about to retire. They have invested in the lives of many students, and I know that their reward will be rich in heaven. Now they seek to retire in Sea-Celt, BC. The compensation is very little considering the responsibility of keeping the students safe, warm and fed. Daily homework, cooking fresh foods, and weekend entertainment is all part of the visit. On my way home, I heard the song Ocean's on the radio by Hill-song. A song that has forever become embedded into our families fabric. Deborah's song. She played it on her piano for a long time, and we believe it spoke to her deeply. She knew not even death would separate her from God. She basically, self baptized herself by taking her life off the bridge. She wanted to be solely the bride of Christ. She wanted desperately to be married to Jesus alone. The devil could not rob her innocence, and she had enough of this life and all it's pains. Her mind no longer worked as before she took marijuana on the weekends. Her psychosis to her, never left and she did not want to live with a malfunctioning mind. It worries me that by next year, our prime minister wants to legalize marijuana. Four pot plants per families will be allowed, and they will be likely dispensing marijuana from drug stores and alcohol dispensaries. Some of the details they haven't figured out yet, but for Canada's 150th birthday Trudeau ( the Jihadist as some call him) will legislate the legalization of cannibus. A mind that is still formative, should not be subjected to alcohol or marijuana in my opinion. Studies have shown it causes schizophrenia, and psychosis.

I just came across this post. Simply, the message is to discern what everybody says. Believe only what is parallel with bible teachings. Jesus made it clear, what the end times will be like , particularly Matthew chapter 24. Test the spirits ALWAYS

Crossed the Wretched Bridge Again

I talked with my mom today. She sounds frail, with little ability to formulate words or sentences. I would love to see her, but the trip would be physically and financially a strain. I still have a Japanese student to tend to for a few days. I have been very blessed to hook up with another host family and therefore we shared rides, and trips to the shopping malls. Yesterday, my heart started beating way to fast, as I tried to keep up in the mall with the girls. Today, I bought more dis-solvable children's aspirin that dissolves under one's tongue, in case I get a stroke or heart attack. I feel tired and unmotivated. I missed my walk today in the cemetery. Today, my one daughter was displaced from her work due to hours that were cut back, while another got a full time job as a nurse. The third, may be moving. Life seems to be a turmoil of things. When I sit down to rest, I feel guilty. When I work too much, I murmur. I am supposed to be more thankful than I have been lately. This is not easy to do. A deep fog is present, not only on the roads but in my mind. I seem to be directionless.
Again, yesterday, as I drove my Japanese girl to the Japanese speaking church, I had to drive over the Patullo Bridge. It looked worse than ever. I stayed in the lane farthest from the walkway, to not witness where Deborah may have jumped from with her psychotic mind. Twice I had to cross that wretched bridge, yesterday. I feel depleted, cheated, and so sad.

Fibromyalgia Mystery Finally solved!

Fibromyalgia Mystery Finally Solved!

Researchers Find Main Source of Pain in Blood Vessels

Researchers have found the main source of pain in Fibromyalgia patients, and contrary to what many believe, it does not stem from the brain. The findings mark the end of a decades-old mystery about the disease, which many doctors believed was conjured in patients’ imaginations. The mystery of Fibromyalgia has left millions of sufferers searching for hope in pain medications. Up until recently, many physicians thought that the disease was “imaginary” or psychological, but scientists have now revealed that the main source of pain stems from a most unlikely place- excess blood vessels in the hand.
The discovery may lead to new treatments and perhaps even a total cure in the future, bringing relief to as many as 5 million Americans thought to have the disease. To solve the Fibromyalgia mystery, researchers zeroed in on the skin from the hand of one patient who had a lack of the sensory nerve fibers, causing a reduced reaction to pain. They then took skin samples from the hands of Fibromyalgia patients and were surprised to find an extremely excessive amount of a particular type of nerve fiber called arteriole-venule (AV) shunts.
Up until this point scientists had thought that these fibers were only responsible for regulating blood flow, and did not play any role in pain sensation, but now they’ve discovered that there is a direct link between these nerves and the widespread body pain that Fibromyalgia sufferers feel.
The breakthrough also could solve the lingering question of why many sufferers have extremely painful hands as well as other “tender points” throughout the body, and why cold weather seems to aggravate the symptoms. In addition to feeling widespread deep tissue pain, many Fibromyalgia patients also suffer from debilitating fatigue.
Neuroscientist Dr. Frank L. Rice explained: “We previously thought that these nerve endings were only involved in regulating blood flow at a subconscious level, yet here we had evidences that the blood vessel endings could also contribute to our conscious sense of touch… and also pain,” Rice said. “This mismanaged blood flow could be the source of muscular pain and achiness, and the sense of fatigue which are thought to be due to a build-up of lactic acid and low levels of inflammation fibromyalgia patients. This, in turn, could contribute to the hyperactivity in the brain.”
Current treatments for the disease have not brought complete relief to the millions of sufferers. Therapies include narcotic pain medicines; anti-seizure drugs, anti-depressants and even simple advice such as “get more sleep and exercise regularly.” Now that the cause of Fibromyalgia has been pinpointed, patients are looking forward to an eventual cure. Other expressed frustration about how much they had suffered already:
“When are they ever going to figure out that things are never “all in your head?” said one commenter. “Whenever something doesn’t fit in their tiny little understanding, they belittle the patient and tell them they are crazy. People have suffered through this since they were invented. Prescribing SSRIs for everything is not the answer any more than a lobotomy or hysterectomy was.”
The announcement has the potential to unlock better future treatments and undoubtedly has patients all over the world rejoicing that the mystery of Fibromyalgia has finally been solved.
