Right now I'm on the road, approximately two miles out (having escaped the home base pre-dawn). And the observable scene is peculiarly lit by nature's momentary incompleteness. The pre-sunrise lack of light being shed leaves my imagination to fill in the gaps. And within soft tones and a vaguely...

Reader discretion advised.
I feel like I’ve made so many tiny leaps and bounds forward past few years. Slowly. Nothing huge… but making my existence more comfortable after non stop torture for so long. And that’s not far from...
The sprinklers have ceased scattering droplets of water across the grassy expanse. I am now amongst birds in the morning dampness - they, being the ones who dwell in and about the park. Whereas I am merely a frequent visitor - one who trespasses.
And then suddenly, there he is. Orange Julius...
Well, it seems that perhaps voicing myself here at times....was more cathartic than i fully realized.
Its certainly healing to use your voice at times and especially when you live in a world where few want to be bothered with your voice.
Yes, people can be jerks.

Resistance is _________
I'm fully latching onto and into the Vitamin D Resistance realm. It just makes too much damn sense. Each of you already knows the details, as incessant exposure to direct sunlight improves my physical energy state (whereas a lack of sunlight severely detracts from my...

I thought I would try this. If it goes well, we might do another one at another stage.
Transport/travel: Venue is close to the M50 junction 6. There is a quite big car parking on...
This blog has been a healing journey and pleasure at times of self reflection, cathartic healing and community healing as well…. But, I’ve said all I need to say for now. For the foreseeable future, I shall bid farewell. On to new journeys and new beginnings.
Much love and healing light to...
My boy graduated high school last week.
It’s an incredibly strange feeling.
My heart strings…. Are pulling.
I see his sweet face in my arms. It’s 10pm at night on a warm September evening in 2004. And all is so well. I’ve never felt that kind of love up until that point. That kind of...
It’s a liver kinda release week for me. Often in the form of emotions and physical pain. Today is a full moon. Nature often likes to sync up and provide windows of release so the new can come in. And many of us with chronic illness, have a tad of back up in us 😅

These tears we cry
Are falling rain
For all the lies
You told us
The hurt, the blame!
And we will weep
To be so alone
We are lost!
We can never go home
So in the end

The night sky is especially black right now, but I cannot say why. Blacker than a black ink pen? Perhaps it is.
I shouldn't be awake right now. And really, nobody should. But I am contending with a particular kind of pain. An old familiar. The Bile Flesh Burn. It's a deep skin erosion trauma...
Somedays, the anger is so much.
That the knowledge of what has happened exists
yet mob mentality keeps us complacent.
And mob mentality, is a massively powerful thing.
That doctors are scared to treat me.
I’ve been told off record many times at this point.
Other doctors have lost their...
I’ve been watching these slowly over the past ‘blank’ years I’ve been bedridden. Don’t want to think about numbers.
Anywho, I enjoyed this show as a child and have been enjoying rewatching it. Sharing fir those that may be looking for something in good spirits to watch.
I had intentions of trying castor oil packs for years but it always seemed messy and not as powerful as other things I had on my to try list for supporting my liver and lymphatic system.
But as I realized how powerful transdermal methods of application can be in humans for a multitude of...

Its just regular tests put together in a panel.
Amusing to me because i had put together a set pf blood tests i am going to ask for next week. And i then saw it is very similar to the post covid panel!

In the court of the crimson king kinda day 👑
“The rusted chains of prison moons
Are shattered by the sun
I walk a road, horizons change
The tournament's begun
The purple piper plays his tune
The choir softly sing
Three lullabies in an ancient tongue
For the court of the crimson king”
Apparently, one of measles tricks to avoid the immune system is to wipe out the host immune system’s memory! So not only do then become more susceptible to the measles but you also develop more severe infections to other illnesses because your body no longer recognizes them even if ykuve had...
