Feel Better:Complain About Anything

Hi Dear Tau,

I am sorry I haven't replied to you. Big thrill, we left the farm this afternoon for our 2nd astra Zeneca and then got some shopping etc.
Getting out and back into the farm was a challenge we, have about 5 kms of dirt rd, which atm is like a death trap. Half of it is washed away and full of holes.
I am going to have a word with the shire. We pay plenty of rates for no services here. No post, no rubbish collections it is a joke.

It is so very hard to lose a loved one, I keep thinking...oh maybe I should ring Dad. Then I realise he is dead and then perhaps I could ring my daughter, she is not dead but will not speak to me.
But this is small fry compared to your final loss of your precious daughter.
Yes, just a fleeting thought or a chance remark can turn your day very black.

Life is so strange, it can be short or long and everything can change so suddenly or a painful disease can I think, be even worse, because you are so wishing and hoping for a miracle, when death comes. Even though you know it may, it still cuts like a knife. Like your girl and my stepfather who died at 43.

I am rethinking my vitamins. Looking for a really good general vitamin, perhaps rather than the ones which I take daily.

Bless your heart. You are a lovely soul. There was a piano piece playing as I just came out of the lounge. I did recognise it, but could not recall the name and it made me think of you.

Take care my lovely Jo Jo

Hi @Joannie - thanks for your sweet post!

I re-read Parsi's advice and what she said makes a lot of sense - maybe do some more reading and observing yourself, too - taking just one multi-vitamin is a good idea.
I have been good with my diet this week, but today I had bits of pork belly roast (still lots left over) - and boy did I enjoy eating the crackling etc.

I have acquaintances who are much younger than myself - but both the husband and wife suffered from cancer some years ago - almost simultaneously - both used to eat a lot of those continental small goods, sausage meats etc. They have recovered remarkably well, but now take great care about what they eat - and they use a lot of vitamins daily. He sent me photos of all the vitamins they take - not at once - at certain meals only - and they do the long fast overnight - last meal at 6 pm - breakfast not before 9 the next morning. This is easy to do. The husband claims specific vitamins etc helped him get rid of very bad osteoarthritis as well. He swears by 'Curcumin' for example - which I use in cooking every now and then, but not daily.
All the best
