The magic of medicine

Once a month I have an hospital appointment with a podiatrist who tends to my trotters so skillfully that they are now in the best condition they have been for years.  It's been a long process that at times has made me question the point of trying to save my foot from amputation.  A few months ago when I was yet again on a course of antibiotics that was issued following the removal of a few pieces of bone and the subsequent pathology report sent to my GP I had decided that elective surgery was the road I wished to go down since it was inevitable that this would be the outcome in time.  A consultation was arranged with a surgeon and I felt relieved that I was soon going to be free of the palaver of treatment.  A quick flick of the scalpel and my foot would be able to heal without the need for more debilitating drugs and dressings. Then fate stepped in.  For one reason or another I missed my appointment and the treatment had to continue .  I was in a low place and ready to give up completely, but regardless of my vocal protestations the podiatrist kept on with her insistence that she hadn't given up on me. Ordinarily I would kick back at this but she never lectured me, she soaked up every last expletive that fell from my potty mouth, dried my tears with her chatty humour and entertained me with tales of her own life. I shall never look at Steak Tartare in the same way again. For this I cannot thank her enough.  She saved my foot and she saved my life.

That's almost all that I have to report, except for Dorothy's bowels definitely being back to normal, demonstrated with the most enormous turd (she's on daily omelettes forever), a little political activism with a taxi driver (he needed setting straight) and a shopping order delivered by a new guy who I can only describe as hunky as fuck.  I'm almost tempted to abstain from abstinence since he not only has the looks of Adonis, a beard but also has a Chihuhua.  Maybe next time i'll greet him at the door with a bottle of chloroform.

    PERFECT  HACKER  IS THE BEST PLACE TO GET BLANK ATM CARD. I was searching for a loan to sort out my debts, then I saw comments about Blank ATM Credit Cards that can be hacked to withdraw money from any ATM machines around you. I doubted this but decided to give it a try by contacting (perfecthacker1@aol.com} they responded with their guidelines on how the card works. I was assured that the card can withdraw $5,000 instant per day & was credited with $50,000.00 so I requested one & paid the fee and delivery cost to obtain the card, after 24 hours later, I was shocked to see the UPS agent in my resident with a parcel I signed and went back inside and confirmed the atm card works perfectly well after the agent left. This is no doubt because I have the card & have made use of It, the card is accepted in-All store and online purchase the hackers are USA-based hackers set out to help people with financial freedom!!

    I never thought that I could be this wealthy after all I've been through trying to meet ends and take care of my family, I used to play lottery but has never be lucky to win until I saw some comments online how he had helped a lot of people win, after first I didn't believe him but still I gave it a try, I wrote him a message on email after few hours he replied back so I told him what I want he assured me success. he also told me what I should do and I did all he requested from me, after some hours he gave me the lucky numbers and showed me where to play so i did as instructed to my biggest surprise I won 27 million pounds (Euromillions). Now I'm rich and happy all thanks to Dr Benjamin for the help, I'm nothing without you. if you need his help to win you can reach him via his email drbenjaminlottospell711@gmail.com and his whatsapp +13344539570 or visit his website Drbenjamintemple.com

    I have been unlucky playing the Lottery over the years. I couldn't take the pain anymore and I searched for help online. I saw random positive reviews of DR AMBER saying how he has been helpful with his spells. I visited his webpage: ( amberlottotemple.com ) and he told me what was required to get what I seek for done and I accepted. He did a reading for me that made it clear to him that I was going to become a MEGA JACKPOT winner and he gave me the right numbers to play the Lottery. I had faith in him and I went back to the store a few days later to confirm if I had won and while the clerk was checking my ticket, I heard her say ‘Oh my God! I looked up and saw the Big Winner screen of $36,449,852.60. I was completely shocked, but calm. It feels amazing – I can’t imagine this shift in my life and I want to appreciate this man DR AMBER for his help. It’s not everybody that is naturally lucky to win the Lottery but the solution to win is DR AMBER. For more info Call/Text/Telegram +1 808 481 5132 or E-mail: amberlottotemple@yahoo.com

Christmas is almost upon us and there's the stench of frantic preparation in the air.  The roads are busier than usual, the shops are full of heaving trolleys and the people on the streets are barking their festive greetings at one another.  In a little over a week this rigmarole will be repeated for the welcoming of the new year.  You may call me a cynic for believing that this is mostly false sentiment of the masses.  Their goodwill lasts as long as it takes for their good wishes to fall from their lips.  They walk past those in need as quickly and as ignorantly as they did yesterday, and the days before that. It makes my piss boil.  I do my best with what little I have but it's a mere drop in the ocean when fighting the injustice of what's purported to be civilised society.  As a child had I known what I know now about mankind my life would have taken a very different path.  I'm not claiming to be a saint or wise man, nor am I of the false...

Catching up

Image
It always feels good to catch up on stuff that has been waiting around in the mire that is our minds.  Over the past week it seems that catching up is all I have done, with both my own chores and those of other people.  The worst of those neglected tasks was assisting a friend who had become long overdue in handing in coursework for a qualification, a task that I was told about last Wednesday and had to be completed by Sunday night.  She had scarcely begun the process, was feeling desperate and eventually reached out to me for help.  I agreed, she came over to mine and we made a start on what at first seemed quite a simple job but that illusion was soon shattered. I then spent the next four days attempting to dissect the information given by the examining body, written in a language that seemed alien. Three course units later it was finally completed yesterday on my own whilst my friend was in work.  I am always happy to help people, but I think it's the la...

Expectations and Disappointments

Image
I'm not one for expecting much of people because of the resulting disappointment that so often occurs, however I do expect some courtesy from those I choose to have access to my life.  This past week has definitely been one for mild disappointment from that small expectation of my fellow human beings. I am left questioning myself: is it something that I have done to warrant such disregard for my time? I don't think it is , so the only answer that I have come up with is that some people are simply rude and/or ignorant of the impact they can have on others. I'll cope with it, like I always have, but I must say that it hurts just a little bit.  I know for sure that one person in particular won't have the opportunity to let me down again for I  have closed down all methods of them communicating with me, bar them writing a letter which would go in the recycling bin. I have not asked for or expect an explanation or an apology from them, and equally I won't give them ...
