Well... Much as I loved Perry...
I have my Ventolin generic when i feel like it, and Trelegy once a day in morning. I told the dr. i take a shot of Zempreon (the Ventolin generic am on now) before taking the Trelegy, he said, good idea. I don't take any vitamins, Vitamin 12 is something it sounds i should look at.
Don't know how i lost yours from mail. Lucky to come across it now.
I need your deli now. When friends going away emptied their fridge to me, they included in the stash some slices of ham. At least part of them are now part of me, and a sudden crave to get some more ham slices for sandwiches has erupted. Thought maybe Woolworth's but no. only in plastic. So now am headed out and that is the primary goal of the day, to learn where i can get nice old ham slices for ham, cheese, tomato, lettuce sandwiches. A simple goal.
Hear hear -- Physician calls for compassion in health care — for ailing patients and burnt-out workers
'I don't think people want to know what doctors feel,' says Winnipeg doctor Jillian Horton
"Worldwide it's the same old, in many areas of worth and exploitation. It's the capitalist way."
CBC Radio · Posted: Jan 18, 2024 4:26 PM EST | Last Updated: August 15
In 2023, about 1 in 10 Canadian doctors considered attempting suicide. Dr. Jillian Horton says the health
-care system has to change to make room for the emotional well-being of doctors. She's helping
doctors understand that in order to care better for their patients, they must care better for
themselves. (Shutterstock / Alliance Images)
LISTEN -- Ideas 53:59 Healing and the Healer: Dr. Jillian Horton on compassion in health care
*Originally published on Jan. 18, 2024.
Jillian Horton traces her love of medicine to her sister, Wendy, who was diagnosed with a brain tumour at age six.
Wendy's surgery took away her hearing, sight, and her ability to walk. It was then Jillian Horton saw how dehumanizing the health-care system could be.
"After her surgery, my parents asked the pediatric neurologist about her prognosis. And that doctor put Wendy's scans up on a light box and he shouted at them: 'Can't you people get it through your heads? This girl has no brain left!'"
Dr. Horton is a specialist in internal medicine in Winnipeg. She says the health-care system leaves no space for doctors to show any authentic human emotion, requiring medical staff to steer clear of all feeling — but she wants to change that.
* First Person Dr. Jillian Horton pleads for care for vulnerable people like her late sister in life, as well as death

* Q&A Dr. Jillian Horton examines burnout facing healthcare professionals in new book
https://www.cbc.ca/radio/thenextchapter/dr-jillian-horton-examines-burnout-facing-healthcare-professionals-in-new-book-1.6728708
In her book, We Are All Perfectly Fine: A Memoir of Love, Medicine and Healing, she writes about what she's witnessed as a doctor and the necessity for compassion for both health-care workers as well as those on the receiving end of health care.
Horton recently won the Edna Staebler Award for Creative Nonfiction .. https://www.wlu.ca/information-for/community-members/literary-initiatives/edna-staebler-awards/edna-staebler-award-for-creative-non-fiction/index.html , based at Wilfrid Laurier University. She spoke in front of an audience at the awards ceremony.
Here is an excerpt from her talk.
I've experienced all the cardinal signs of burnout: depersonalization, emotional exhaustion, and a low feeling of personal accomplishment. And sometimes I had them at work. But for doctors, high performance at work is like blood flow to the brain in trauma. It's the last thing the body hangs on to at all costs. So where did my burnout show up? It showed up with my family, with my small, precious children, and with the people I love the most. I came home from work some days, a burnt-out, empty husk of a person. And after a while, as I wrote about in my book, I hit a point where I knew that something had to change.
I ended up going to a retreat near Rochester, New York — a mindfulness retreat for doctors. It's held at a Zen center in the woods called Chapin Mill. That program is run by other doctors who have made a career out of teaching mindfulness to health-care workers. It's evidence-based. It's been published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, and the results have been replicated in centers around the world.

She served in the Senate, like Pence, and she sure as shit wouldn't have needed to consult anyone about whether or not she needed to certify an election, like Mikey did.
And she threw no softball question in Sen. Committee hearings.
I should have been more specific--she is good at performing and getting ratings for mindless entertainment.
She has done nothing in governing.
Thanks for focing me to clarify myself.

The safety of food shipped from an occupied Ukraine could NOT be assured. Long before the harvesting of whatever Ukrainian horticulturists and geneticists would have prepared a VERY unappetizing 'menu' for Russia.
Our internet chef would describe it as a minus number symbolizing the effect on Russian population numbers. ☠️
The Democrats shut down nothing. Manchin was thinking of running and realized just like everyone else she had the organization and money. You’re a fool
And I will put you down for being unable to say that if would turn out different it the flip of the circumstances that I described were to happen. If you can't answer THAT then you have no valid point, as per usual.
Do the Dems SEEM like they are upset with your bogus description of a 'denial of democracy' to them? Who in TF are you speaking on behalf of?
The 'challengers' wisely decided that it was too f'ing late. And rest assured if one decided to go for it you'd STILL be claiming a denial of democracy because that person didn't go through the primaries.
Wow, you really make it easy to sandbag you with facts and logic. NOT that difficult at all, believe me.
So you are voting for Kamala Harris in November. Otherwise you vote for trump because he truly represents democracy, fairness, and only cares what happens to all Americans. Trump could never be selfish in his approach to being president, he just wants to defend the constitution.
Ok--I will put you down for "OK with undemocratric, political elite making decisions for the Dem vote."
So--you were OK with the DNC shutting down any and all challengers? No option for the Democrat?
Wow-- you really are blind rats going down the rat hole following the Pied Piper.
Ukraine, bread basket of the world, they grow wheat. Export wheat to feed the world. Putin wants it to feed his population. Control of the food.
Have my breathing treatment I do twice a day, trilogy, extra Vitamin B12, it's all good. Life is wonderful, great doctors and nurses, and a loving family.
Supreme Court Judges cannot be screwed with, and always thought justice prevails. Old Perry Mason fan.
I was overwhelmed at Houston, had my little MGB and learned quickly that when it rained other drivers became erratic. Also there was a bar with an apple tree in the name, I think. Lastly, my boss had me over on Christmas Day, and Fired me on New Year's Eve. I wanted my own store, he wanted them all. Great business, lunch trade, New York Deli, mostly sandwiches.

God gets mixed reviews on Amazon. This is perhaps surprising. His marketing campaign (now in its third millennium) has been strong. His slogans (“God is Great!”) are positive. And indeed many shoppers effuse. “Wonderful!” reads one five-star review beneath His best-known work, the Bible. “Beautiful,” says another. “Amen,” adds another satisfied customer...
One study found that in 2016 American faith-based orgs had revenues of $378bn... God may be reat; His full-year results are greater..

LOLOL Elizabeth Booker Houston is a comedian worthy of the late George Carlin's memory.
George Carlin ANNIHILATES Donald Trump and Everything He Represents
You're the f'ing moron. And you're too intellectually dishonest, or too stupid, to accept that the argument I made about a GOP scenario, with the same circumstances applying to an un-hanged Mike Pence, would play out as described.
Refute it or STFU.
https://hls.harvard.edu/today/can-kamala-harris-access-biden-campaign-funds/
HLT: So for the purposes of campaign donations, running mates who are on the same “ticket” running for president and vice president are a package deal? If somebody said they donated to President Biden three weeks ago, for example, were they donating to President Joe Biden or the Biden-Harris campaign?
Stephanopoulos: For the current 2024 presidential election, the Biden-Harris Campaign is technically where those donations have been going. That’s a fund that supports the campaign for president and the vice president. If the presidential nominee wasn’t someone already on the ticket, for example Gavin Newsom, it would be more cut-and-dry that Biden-Harris campaign funds could not go directly to him. With a non-Biden/non-Harris nominee, the money would have to stay independent from the new candidate and most likely end up with the Democratic National Committee (DNC) or some other party committee. The entity receiving those funds could still use that money to support the new candidate, it just wouldn’t be able to transfer those funds to the new candidate directly.
Harvard Law Today: Given that Biden was chosen as the nominee by voters through the primaries, is the Democratic Party allowed to just change its nominee? If so, practically, how does that work?
Nicholas Stephanopoulos: So, it’s important to remember — Biden was not the actual, official nominee of the Democratic Party yet. He was just the presumptive nominee because he had accumulated enough pledged delegates to get a majority of the total number of delegates.
But the convention hadn’t happened. The delegates hadn’t voted. And, so, he hadn’t yet become the nominee. Once President Biden dropped out, the party was free to identify a different nominee. The ultimate bar for becoming the Democratic Party nominee is just having an outright majority of delegates voting for you at the convention in August. Now it appears that Kamala Harris is going to have an outright majority of delegates backing her.
If so, under the pre-existing standard Democratic Party rules, she’ll receive the official nomination. Things might have been a lot trickier if Biden had pulled out after becoming the official nominee. But because he pulled out before the convention, things are a lot simpler.
HLT: With the rules regarding campaign fundraising, is there a difference between funds that are raised by the official Biden-Harris campaign and those raised by supporting organizations?
Stephanopoulos: There is a difference in that all of the various Super PACs or party committees or other entities that are raising money can spend that money however they want to regardless of who the nominee is, so it makes no difference for any of these other groups, legally, whether the nominee is Biden or Harris.
For Harris, in particular, she has just inherited the money that the Biden-Harris ticket had previously raised and so, about a hundred million dollars just went under her direct control after Biden dropped out because she was already on the ticket.
Campaign finance lawyers have questioned whether that’s strictly kosher. It’s not going to make a difference practically because Harris has the keys to the account right now and any complaint about that is not going to be resolved by the FEC remotely in time for the election. So while there is a little cloud of doubt over whether it’s completely fine for Harris just to inherit all this money that was given to Biden-Harris, as a practical matter, she’s doing it, and any legal doubts will most likely remain open until after the election.
Holy shit, I gained a lot of followers today. Y'all really hate Ann Coulter, too, huh? 😂

conix, Are you really pretending i did not say that to you, more than twice.
""Told you a long time ago ..." Oh, yes Daddy. Tell me more on what you said that is not true? Please!
What a bubble you are in, fuagf. Not self aware"
What exactly are you saying there which you claim i just said which was not true.
Justify your slander, no bullshit. Or don't reply to this post.
That's it? That's the post?
You seem extra upset today, perhaps seek out a hug from someone and come back later?
And she has done nothing.
She kicked your ass!

Back so soon? Wife disappointed again?
"Told you a long time ago ..." Oh, yes Daddy. Tell me more on what you said that is not true? Please!
What a bubble you are in, fuagf. Not self aware
conix, Mine to you that long time ago was never more than an opinion of an ordinary guy.
And just then to you i simply stated a fact. A fact which carried none at all of the sort
of arrogant, rude presumptuous pomposity which you have brought to this board.
No matter how you ... "You told many people many things that should be ignored.
How pompous of you to say that. Ridiculous." ... love to misrepresent positions.
Obsessed with Melania
Just asking questions honey. Where is she?
REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER continues FRIDAY, AUGUST 23
This week features a one-on-one interview with Kaitlan Collins, former CNN Chief White House correspondent who now hosts the CNN primetime series “The Source with Kaitlan Collins.”
This week’s panel discussion includes James Carville, Democratic strategist and a co-host of the podcast “Politics War Room with James Carville & Al Hunt;” and Dan Crenshaw, Republican congressman who represents Texas’ second district and host of the podcast “Hold These Truths with Dan Crenshaw.”
Crenshaw is that eyepatch wearing GOP ass-clown. So expect some stolen valor shit.
As between Carville and Maher, who will play the Cadet Bone Spur suckers and losers card? 😊
That is the subtitle to this board..."Where boring posters know everything".
That is not how elections work are supposed to work. The VP and President are not interchangeable. You moron.
And your "enthusiasm" in a screaming convention long on entertainment and absent ANY policy declarations.
Not "every American should be able to afford a house". Those are goals. Not policies.
But--wait--who am I replying to?
Oops--blackhawks? With the imaginary girlfriend?
Sorry...never mind.
Oh, the horror of hypocrisy fully mastered by the right, so grant the left a little slack. I don't care what the heck Rs do! I voted for Joe and Kamala in the primary and am perfectly pleased where we are, how we got here and where we are heading! It must be very special to be so smugly all knowing as you proclaim!
Obsessed with Melania, arizona/
Go into your room with your towel and get over it.
They voted for the ticket, you moron. And the obvious enthusiasm shown towards her, not just by Dems, puts the lie to your laughable 'ignoring the will' of the voters' nonsense.
You told many people many things that should be ignored. How pompous of you to say that. Ridiculous.
Spare me the mantra that you want to defend democracy when you defend ignoring the will of the voters who voted for Biden.
I certainly do not listen to the VP of the Administration that the Dems wanted to get rid of before Biden stepped down. Dump Kamla has become Hail Kamla.
And she has done nothing.
Horseshit. You're simply incapable of this kind of mental exercise. IF Trump was an incumbent running, had the same bad debate performance and uneven subsequent performances, and was persuaded to step down to help the GOP win the election, it would have unfolded the same way for the same reason. Campaign money goes only to the VP.
Dems are focused on democracy far more than a Party still overlooking 'stop the steal' and the incitement to storm the Capitol to block the certification of a democratic election. The GOP Taliban is as authoritarian as it gets.
He is a seemly broken person and doesn't deserve to be anywhere near a position of power. What happened to your buddy Dean Phillips?? LOL
you know JR killed a bunch of kids and started a measles outbreak with his anti-vax bullshit in Samoa right? My guess is most thinking people want to steer as clear from this lunatic as they possibly can.
Of course you'll listen to him but you do you.

I will remind everyone that Democrat primary voters had their vote hijacked by the DNC
And who do you hear complaining except like MAGAts like you and Trump? You sound pretty desperate, Cruellla.

conix, Told you a long time ago that Democrats would do what is best for America and for the world.
And told you long time ago Democrats would do that unlike the Republicans who caved to the
bullying, the insults, and the lies of the wannabe Putin-like Donald Trump.
No country is perfect and no party is perfect, For you to grab little cherries as you do and to use what
RFK Jr. says about Democrat Party process after he asked the Trump camp to take him on is a joke.
