I mean well and I do feel you also do @msfntor.

We are human and will say the wrong things, we al do, we are not perfect. Even though we want to help, sometimes we don't always get it right, hopefully people will forgive us when this happens as we also be forgiving and understanding of others and what they have been (are going) through.

Be right Back...

Heat wave in my City, a "serious threat" to my postings here...

Yes indeed, I apologize to you all for not replying right away, and it's because of this stifling heat, sorry.

I serve the living first, and then I answer the digital demands (so your postings), this seems logical to me, sorry my digital friends.

he posts every link he finds in the Web to this topic (Pretty Detox Posts topic and MSFN cafe topic), and expects us to understand every link he posts.

No Mina, I post the chosing links only, NOT every links I find on the Web... So what you don't understand, please... you don't understand my taste of humor?

"expects us to understand every link he posts." - surely, but this will come with time, I don't lose hope.:cool:

Jack's frozen photo next to botox freezing effects description...? It's to make you smile Mina... Obviously it is difficult sometimes to pass the sense of humor on the web? Yes, I've already noticed, that on the web there are people who sometimes don't understand my sense of humor, hmm - this will come with time...

Do you read your links (in full entirety) before you post them?

YES, that's why I judge to post - or not...

Sometimes I've "errors of judgment" - very rarely, sorry - I'm human only. Like you all.

I'm not a doctor. And I don't even play a doctor on TV.:D

Very sorry to tell you this, but I am very serious nowadays, that's why I don't have so much taste of humor.

It frightened me. Posting about frozen people frightens me than making me smile. And also about some animals dying because of X reason. These are the article links I avoid reading.

Chiari malformation

 

This Latina doctor survived six brain surgeries and now cares for patients: "I want to give them hope."
A stroke paralyzed her body: "I had to learn how to do absolutely everything". She was advised to forget her dream, but she didn't give up: "I didn't think I was going to make it, but I was persistent, I wanted to prove, not to others but to myself, that I could do it".


Survived six brain surgeries and was left paralyzed: now a doctor at the same hospital that saved her

A Latina doctor who survived six brain surgeries and a stroke now sees patients as a physical medicine and rehabilitation specialist at the same Texas hospital where she was saved. "In medical school you learn many things, except how to be a patient," she told Telemundo News.

Claudia Martinez, 31, is a third-year resident physician at TIRR Memorial Hermann, a teaching hospital of Baylor College of Medicine and the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston.

Like many Latinos, Martinez is the first to receive a college education in her family. Her maternal grandparents migrated from Mexico to California and her dad is originally from New Mexico. "I'm also the first doctor," she added.

When she was still a student, she began to suffer symptoms that forced her to visit a specialist. "I started with headaches and my arms and legs became weak," she told Telemundo News.

In 2011 she was diagnosed with a disease known as Chiari malformation, which causes brain tissue to extend into the spinal cord, and can cause paralysis.


Since being diagnosed, the young doctor underwent six brain surgeries, the first in 2012 and the last in 2017, and then suffered a stroke that paralyzed her from the neck down and left her unable to walk, write, or use a computer.


In the midst of his recovery at TIRR Memorial Hermann Hospital, he had to attend therapies for a year and learned to do everything again. Her mother was her main support in the midst of adversity and her dad the inspiration to keep going through her treatment and studies.

"All my life I have seen my dad work hard to give me the education he didn't have, so I wanted to do everything I could to become a doctor," she said.

After a long struggle and even hearing many doctors tell her she couldn't practice, Claudia graduated and began to inspire her colleagues and her community. On Instagram, she has more than 45,000 followers.

"I share my story so people can see that we can do everything that a person without a disability can do," he assures.


She decided to do her residency at the same hospital where she was treated because she remembers that this was the place where her now colleagues told her that she would be able to. That's the same thing she tells her patients "to give them hope."

For now Claudia is making progress in her recovery. Her hands do not have the same sensitivity as before as a sequel to her surgeries and the stroke.

Her message, she says, is also for more Latinos in the medical community. "That also inspired me," she said.

Sorry you've been in heat wave and so glad you returned, we would miss you, you have a good heart and people here care (I care) about you very much and we ABSOLUTELY understand - real life and the living has to come first.

I'll be back in a bit

You didn't offend me at all, I was wondering why my posting caused you concern is all. I was sort of joking (tongue-and-cheek) type humor in say my posting was weird because I AM weird. The latter also is ok with me as I have sense of humor and dearly departed father used to say there is nothing wrong with being an outsider or what others would consider odd - would never want to be "normal" ;)

No, please feel sorry for me, I'm actually doing alright considering.

Sorry, but what do you mean by this?

Mina, I think, that when you have lived something unpleasant... even difficult to agree with, at the level of well being of yourself, family, friends etc... it's better to move on (but not forgetting); thinking rather of present and future, than constantly about the past.

You can't change the facts that are there. 

On the other hand you can improve the present and future of the things that concern you, your family, your friends and acquaintances, think rather of their present and future...
I wish you the best of course!

My therapist tells me that ruminating over the past (even yesterday) is unhealthy. I don't hold a grudge, but I also don't forget, I learn from it and try to not repeat the same path that caused me to be in this situation. True, I didn't have control over much of it, but I contribute to it; I admit that.

You don't have to say, and I wouldn't ask anything of somebody that would further cause hurt feelings or sorrow, but I am guilty of saying the wrong thing to people. Even trained doctors screw up (royally screw up - big time) and bartenders become therapist for some, but I've not been to a bar since the 1990s and never will even again. Total sobriety is the way to go.

Ugh .. see .. I'm saying all the wrong things right now.

"Scars don't vanish but are healed given time. Offer ourselves (this) forgiveness and compassion, (for) forgiving others is to release yourself - this is for you to heal; but to hold on, only you are stuck, while others move along and only you (are to) relive the anguish and left behind."

-XPerceniol

This was from the heart only and I speak from 'first hand' experience ... people have let me down ... I try to admit to myself my part and not repeat the "cycle". Trust me, the cycle can continue very easily if we allow it to fester and we punish ourselves so easily.
