text: New treatments for hair loss have recently emerged, using medications and procedures such as microneedling with microinfusion of drugs into the skin, a technique known today as MMP. In this treatment, utilizing a microneedle device, growth factors, vitamins, minoxidil, finasteride and other substances that stimulate the hair growth and reduce hair loss are applied to the scalp. The treatment is effective for various types of hair loss in both men and women. The sessions should be done monthly and last for about 30 minutes, with minimal discomfort and effective results. Another breakthrough in this area is the use of lasers to treat hair loss, such as Fotona and LED.

A new progressive lens from Nikon is changing the way people see the world. Nikon's SEEMAX ULTIMATE progressive lens is a breakthrough lens technology that delivers a field of vision as unique and personalized as your own fingerprint! This truly revolutionary approach to customization redefines what we can expect from progressives.
At Eyes Focused on You, our primary goal is to provide education to our patients to empower them to take charge of their health and the health of their families. It's important to know about progressive lenses and understand the benefits they provide so that you can make the best possible decision when it comes to vision correction.
What are the benefits of progressive lenses?
Progressive lenses work well for those with more than one vision problem, for example, those who are far-sighted or near-sighted and are losing their ability to focus (presbyopia). Having a combination of vision issues can require multiple pairs of glasses in order to cope with our visually demanding world. This can be difficult and impact our quality of life. We need to see clearly, far and close, and in between. Imagine going to the grocery store wearing one pair of glasses, browsing the shelves wearing another pair, and then having to switch to a third pair to read the ingredients label or check the price! Many people live with this situation for years.
Progressive lenses reduce the need for multiple pairs of glasses but, unlike bifocals which provide just two lens powers, or trifocals which provide three, progressives are true multifocal lenses that provide a smoother, seamless progression through many lens powers for clear vision up close, in the distance, and in between, so you can see the world as nature intended, without any effort to focus.
The new SEEMAX ULTIMATE progressive lens from Nikon is a very exciting development. It opens up a new era of vision correction through unprecedented personalization to the individual's needs, preferences and viewing habits. With the SEEMAX ULTIMATE technology, your prescription is used to create the lens rather than have the lens adapted to your prescription. This new software uses detailed input from the patient about things like sensitivities to blur and near vision working distance, resulting in lenses built for you, by you!
Benefits of Nikon's SEEMAX ULTIMATE progressive lens
- Wearers forget they are wearing progressives!
- Regardless of what you wore before, everything is instantly familiar right from the start
- You can see your world your way by being in control of what matters most
- Instant focus at intermediate distances
- Natural vision when scanning from side to side
- Lenses feel like they carry no visual distractions
- Seemingly boundless view with minimal visual distractions
If you are considering progressives, there has not been a better time to try them. Nikon's SEEMAX ULTIMATE progressive lenses are available at Eyes Focused on You. Call 905 702 1616 to book an appointment.

EUROPEAN BUSINESS: Ms. Lindahl-Jessen, Fritz Hansen is one of the market leaders in Nordic furniture design. How would you describe the company’s philosophy?
Sofie Lindahl-Jessen: Our brand name is Republic of Fritz Hansen. This reflects the fact that all of our designers, among whom there are many different nationalities, share our philosophy about Nordic aesthetics, high quality and unique design. We are a global niche player; we compete in the high-end, premium design sector. Our mission is to combine iconic pieces in our collection with modern design.
EUROPEAN BUSINESS: Fritz Hansen has, in recent years, expanded its activities beyond furniture. What was the thinking behind that strategy?
Sofie Lindahl-Jessen: Three years ago, we took a strategic decision to expand our scope as a furniture designer; we wanted to develop into a lifestyle interior specialist. Our goal was to create inspiring, all round furniture environments. In 2015, we acquired Danish lighting company Lightyears, which develops and manufactures modern lighting that combines tradition and innovation – a perfect fit with Fritz Hansen’s philosophy. We also launched our own accessories line, Objects by Fritz Hansen, which encompasses cushions and throws, vases, trays, mirrors, and stools. The collection goes by the tag line ‘complementing your life’, and introduces the whole Fritz Hansen brand to customers through stunning yet affordable products.
EUROPEAN BUSINESS: Nevertheless, furniture remains the mainstay of Fritz Hansen’s portfolio, and its iconic pieces are recognized around the world. Tell us about the collection.
Sofie Lindahl-Jessen: Chairs and lounge armchairs are the two main pillars of our portfolio. We actually have two collections: classic furniture, and contemporary design. Series 7™ is the best-selling range in the classic collection; the iconic chair was designed by Arne Jacobsen in the 1950s, and has always been incredibly popular. The sculptured Egg™ lounge chair is another, instantly recognizable classic. On the contemporary side, the Ro™ lounge armchair offers both comfort and style. This year, we launched a new sofa, the Lune™, a functional, modular system which maintains the clean, elegant lines of the famous Nordic style.
"We are a global niche player; we compete in the high-end, premium design sector" Sofie Lindahl-JessenExecutive Vice President for Sales & Brand Management at Fritz H
EUROPEAN BUSINESS: What is particularly special about Fritz Hansen’s furniture?
Sofie Lindahl-Jessen: We create a specific combination of Danish and Nordic design tradition – clean and aesthetic lines – with a high level of quality and craftsmanship. We utilize our history and add modernity. We have an in-house design team who co-ordinate our external designers, a mixture of classic and modern designers, which includes such renowned names as Spanish designer Jaime Hayon, and Cecilie Manz from Denmark. Iconic designers include Hans Wegner, designer of the China™ chair in the 1940s, Arne Jacobsen who was the talent behind the 1950s Egg™, and Poul Kjærholm who designed the PK22™. Within our furniture portfolio, we have some of the most recognizable design icons ever produced, and we constantly update our classics. For example, in 2016, we relaunched Arne Jacobsen’s prestigious Oxford™ Classic chair, which was originally designed for professors at St. Catherine’s College, Oxford; this design earned him an honorary doctorate, and is considered to be Arne Jacobsen’s most outstanding work.
EUROPEAN BUSINESS: Fritz Hansen boasts a number of iconic designs which have really stood the test of time. How did the company develop into such a prestigious and recognized brand?
Sofie Lindahl-Jessen: The company dates back to 1872. However the real breakthrough came in 1950, when Christian Hansen, the son of the founder, devised a method of steam-bending wood. This proved a turning point. Arne Jacobsen was very interested in this development – he wanted to create a sophisticated chair with a light look, using this technique. The pair collaborated, and the result was the famous canteen armchair. At that time, it was known as the 7-series™ chair; today, 60 years on, it is known as one of the most iconic chairs in the world. Around that time, Jacobsen also designed the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen for which he created the Swan™, the Drop™ chair and, most famous of all, the iconic Egg™ chair. In 1970, the family sold the company; today the Augustinus Foundation owns 70% of the company, in partnership with another foundation.
"Looking further ahead, our vision for 2025 is to become the most important player within the premium design sector." Sofie Lindahl-JessenExecutive Vice President for Sales & Brand Management at Fritz H
EUROPEAN BUSINESS: What sales channels do you use?
Sofie Lindahl-Jessen: We sell to the B2B market, which includes contract sales for hotels, restaurants and offices, and of course, we also supply the retail furniture market. We have 25 Republic of Fritz Hansen stores around the world, as well as 130 in-store outlets. We also sell online; this is a growing sales channel for the accessories and lower sector of our portfolio, the products which our customers know very well. The Nordic region is still our most important market, followed by Germany, where online sales have really taken off, and the USA. We have also seen huge growth in Asia Pacific, especially in Korea and Hong Kong, where we still see huge potential. Japan has been a great market for us for many years.
EUROPEAN BUSINESS: How would you describe the company culture?
Sofie Lindahl-Jessen: As a Scandinavian company, empowerment and freedom are key characteristics, but we also expect our staff to take responsibility and be proactive. This is a typical Danish leadership style. As a high-profile brand, we have no problem attracting good staff in Denmark, but abroad it is more difficult; competent sales people are hard to find.
EUROPEAN BUSINESS: Finally, what are Fritz Hansen’s future plans?
Sofie Lindahl-Jessen: In 2018, the Swan™ and the Egg™ will be 60 years old, and we are relaunching both in February. We are also still working on the marketing for the newly-launched Lune™ sofa, which is a huge initiative for us. Looking further ahead, our vision for 2025 is to become the most important player within the premium design sector. We believe that good design beautifies a room and its entire building; in this context, we simply want to bring joy to people.

To Reckon With the Post-Apocalypse, Cities Need to Better Invest in Community
Urban Areas Need the Buy-in of Locals if They Want to Address Major Problems From Public Health to Climate Change
Most people in the world today live in cities. So it is unsurprising that cities have weathered the extremes of an extreme historical moment: they are where the pandemic first hit last year, where protests for racial justice emerged, and where climate change has made its presence most known.
For all these reasons and more, said Somini Sengupta, international climate reporter for the New York Times and moderator of yesterday’s discussion, “How Do Our Cities Prepare for The Post-Apocalypse?,” cities are now in a moment of reckoning.
“As we emerge from this …

Up the Ridge is a 2008 documentary film by Appalshop filmmakers Nick Szuberla and Amelia Kirby revealing injustices in the American Prison System. It especially highlights prisoners sent from urban areas to be incarcerated in rural supermax prisons, such as Red Onion State Prison and Wallens Ridge State Prison. The film delves into issues of parole reform, prisoner abuse, and prisoner suicide. Up the Ridge was created as a part of the Thousand Kites project, a nonprofit organization aimed at exacting prison reform through narrative means. (Kite is prison slang for sending a message) In 1998, Szuberla was a volunteer DJ for a hip-hop show "Lights Out" on WMMT, an Appalachian region radio station when he received hundreds of letters from inmates transferred into nearby Wallens Ridge State Prison, the region's newest prison, built to prop up the shrinking coal economy. The letters described human rights violations and racial tension between prisoner staff and inmates. Filming began that year. Through the example of Wallens Ridge State Prison, the documentary explores the United States prison industry and the social impact of moving hundreds of thousands of inner-city minority offenders to distant rural outposts. The film displays competing political agendas that seem to align government policy with human rights violations, and political expediencies that bring communities into racial and cultural conflict, sometimes with prisoner suicide and prisoner abuse as consequences. Connections exist, in both practice and ideology, between human rights violations in Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo and physical and psychological abuse recorded in U.S. prisons.

Seven months after the referendum that began the procedure for decriminalizing abortion in Ireland, Parliament passed the bill on Thursday (see In Ireland, marketing authorisation for the abortion pill and Irish Referendum: abortion decriminalised).
The bill provides for unconditional abortion up to 12 weeks, as well as if the mother’s life or health is in danger. Abortion will also be possible if the foetus presents a condition that is likely to lead to death in utero. A three-day cooling-off period must be observed before the abortion.
Several amendments were rejected, one of which proposed the complete decriminalization of abortion, and another which created no-protest zones around abortion clinics.
To come into force, the law still needs to be signed by President Michael Higgins.

I started by stamping the large Indigo Blu Map Background four times onto smooth white card using Watering can Archival ink, to give the impression of a much larger map. I then carefully watercoloured the entire map with Tumbled Glass, Antique Linen, Shabby Shutters and Bundled Sage Distress Ink markers (by scribbling ink onto an acrylic block and picking it up with a water brush).
The car image and fun sentiment are from the Indigo Blu Little Voice stamp set and were stamped directly onto the map with Black Archival ink. I then stamped the car again four times onto some dark green card and fussy cut the layers to decoupage using clear foam pads. I used Spring Moss card and ribbon to mount my stamped images onto a 5" x 7" white landscape card blank. Finally the bodywork of the car was emphasised with a thick layer of Glossy Accents to make it nice and shiny! The photo below shows the car in more detail, with it's traditional racing green bodywork. I hope my friend Arthur likes his new car!
Thank you for looking and for your lovely comments!

Former employees of DANS approach the corruption commission
Today, the chairman of the Commission for corruption prevention in the 41st National assembly Yane Yanev summoned in his office Velin Hadjolov and Rashko Zaikov – the former chiefs of the departments OSA and “Counter-espionage” in the Angecy for national security (DANS).
As a result, former employees of DANS approached the Commission for corruption prevention for violations of the law in DANS. According to Yanev, the issues are corruption practices and dependence of DANS agents on several business circles.
“The statements of Rashko Zaekov and Velin Hadjolov will be sent to the chief prosecutor. The prime minister will also be notified on the matter”, said Yanev.
According to him, the reasons for the lack of legal clarity on people who were former employees of the special services and their future endeavors have to be clarified.
The reason behind the meeting was the leak of information for financial misuse and corruption practices in DANS to the national media.

Runners enjoy a salute to the Moores
MIMS — Four-year-old Amarion Floyd is not the type of kid who likes to sit around. In fact, he likes to run. He also has visited the Harry T. and Harriette V. Moore Cultural Complex with schoolmates, and although he’s not one to give details, he knows it’s important.
So Amarion joined dozens of people from his community, Titusville, and others from throughout the area to salute the Moores, raise funds to maintain the complex that celebrates their lives and get out in the late-winter sunshine at the inaugural Heritage Freedom 5K on Saturday afternoon.
The people who went out and came back fastest in the rare late afternoon race were Robert Longstreet of Indialantic, who finished in 18 minutes 35.5 seconds and Mike Acosta of Viera, who was second in 21:13.4. Miguel Rodriguez of Titusville was third among men in 22:28.3.
Third place overall and first among women went to Kristen Klein of Indian Harbour Beach, who crossed the tree-shaded finish line in 21:18.9, followed by Autumn Neilson-Herring (21:39) and Tricia Tezel (23:37.8), both of Cocoa Beach.
Joe Godleski of Cape Canaveral (22:45) was male masters champion and Veronica Quintana of Patrick Air Force Base (24:08.2) the female masters champion.
“I liked it. It was a good course, a fast course; the race was well organized by Running Zone,” Longstreet said. “It was a little windy, though, and it was hot.”
Klein called the course, which started, finished and partly ran under canopies of trees, “a fast course, a scenic, fast course,” but also said the heat was a bit bothersome. “It was very hot by the time we got to the finish.”
Retired Air Force Col. Herman Cole of Titusville, chairman of the board of Parrish Medical Center, which was the major sponsor of the race, joked that it was the “first time in my life that I’ve run this late in the afternoon,” but added that he considered the afternoon, “perfect.”
It may just have been that, too, an exercise in congeniality and community awareness as well as the chance to get some exercise.
Dick White, president of Space Coast Runners, probably should not have participated, as he has a foot injury and was told to “lay off for a while.
“The doctor told me 21 days and it’s 19 days. Close enough,” he said.
The purpose drew him to Mims, he added.
“We came because of the center,” said White, who arrived with his wife, Marlene, from Cocoa Beach. “This is important. This is something people should know about.”
Harry T. Moore, like his wife an educator, founded the local NAACP in 1934 and was instrumental in registering voters across Florida. The Moores’ home was bombed, killing them both, on Christmas night, 1951, and a replica of it has been built on the complex grounds, which also has meeting facilities and a museum.
Race organizer Bill Gary, for decades an activist and president of the North Brevard Chapter of the NAACP, said, “We honor the Moores; we bring attention to what they did, and the work goes on.”
For Amarion, who walked/ran with his great-grandmother, Charlie Bell, was less philosophical.
“I like racing,” he said. “If you race, you get big and strong and I want to be strong.”
“I make sure they know what this means, all the kids (in her family,” Bell said. “We like it here; we even had a family reunion here. This place is important to us.”

Officials say community transmission is at play in fast spread of COVID-19 in Nunavut
TORONTO -- After remaining COVID-19 free for months, Canada’s north has been struck with COVID-19 and it’s spreading worryingly quickly in a region ill-equipped to handle an outbreak.
On Sunday, ten cases were reported in Nunavut, more than doubling the territory’s count in the span of 48 hours. The vast majority of these cases were linked to an outbreak in a specific community: the hamlet of Arviat, with a population of just over 2,600.
Arviat is on the west coast of Hudson Bay, near the southern end of the territory.
“Due to the number [of] cases of COVID-19 in Arviat, anyone from Arviat who left the community on or after November 2 is being asked to immediately isolate for 14 days wherever they are,” Dr. Michael Patterson, Nunavut’s chief public health officer, said in a press release. “In addition, to protect Elders in Arviat, there will be no visitors allowed at the Elders’ centre for at least two weeks.”
A new case in Rankin Inlet, a community slightly north of Arviat, which was also reported Sunday has been linked to Arviat, according to the release.
Out of the territory’s 18 active cases, only three are not linked to Arviat.
All of the individuals who tested positive are in isolation, the release stated. It added that community transmission is currently believed to be occurring in Arviat, as there is no clear links at this point between the patients to show how they became infected.
In early November, Nunavut was still the only area in Canada to be left untouched by COVID-19. Then, on Nov. 6, Nunavut’s chief public health officer confirmed the territory’s first case. Around a week later, eight cases had been reported.
Sanikiluaq, the community where Nunavut’s first case was reported, has around 850 people. As of Saturday, 63 tests had been done in the community, all coming up negative according to a press release.
Twenty-two other tests done in Rankin Inlet found no additional cases.
In all three communities, officials are stressing that residents should be isolating as soon as they believe they’ve been exposed.
“Contact tracing in Rankin Inlet, Sanikiluaq and Arviat continues, with the end goal to trace and contain the virus,” the most recent release states.
Restrictions were tightened in Arviat and the rest of the Kivaliq region, as well as the capital city of Iqaluit earlier this week. Non-essential travel between communities, especially inter-community travel requiring a stop-over in Rankin Inlet, should be avoided, according to officials.
Officials have warned for months that if the virus reaches the north, it could be disastrous, as many regions do not have access to things such as ventilators, or even PPE. The remoteness of many communities can make transporting PPE and patients even more difficult.
Some communities also lack appropriate health centres.
In Sanikiluaq, although a new health centre was built recently, it’s not open yet, according to Kenneth Bell, mayor of Iqaluit.
“Their old health centre just doesn’t have the capacity,” Bell told CTV’s Your Morning on Friday.

Winnersh Triangle’s popular summer music programme drew to a close last week, when the final act in the line-up took to the stage.
Audiences enjoyed the variety of bands playing at Winnersh each week from the end of June through to August, come rain or shine. The outside events took place each Wednesday lunchtime at The Tent on The Green – or sheltered under the tent’s covers depending on the British weather.
The summer music programme introduced a different headline act each week – featuring bands offering an eclectic range of entertainment from a steel band to a string quartet for the enjoyment of all those working at and visiting the business park.
Also on offer each week was a tempting menu of delicious ‘street food’ dishes – featuring a range of international delicacies and free ice-cream.
The summer music programme is part of a range of exceptional events hosted by Winnersh Triangle’s manager PATRIZIA UK for its occupiers at the business park. The musical events have proved to be very popular, with an array of vibrant acts attracting people out of their workplaces to enjoy the ambience, and audience feedback appreciation has been unanimous:
“…It was great chilling out for a few minutes in the glorious sunshine listening to the lovely music. Finished off with a nice cold ice cream…Thanks for organising everything!”
“Just wanted to say thank you, [it’s a] nice way to spend lunch with your colleagues, [we] appreciate the organisation for putting it on.”
“The music has been brilliant.”
“What a fab selection of activities.”
“…Thanks to all concerned for the mid-week music sessions, I really did enjoy them, despite the weather, and the food was good too, especially the free ice cream!”

Governor Migz Villafuerte has a kickass adviser
Some will contend that Camarines Sur Governor Migz Villafuerte is simply too young for his position.
What’s a 27-year-old to do then? Seek advice from a veteran, that’s what. Only this “adviser” is no ordinary vet.
“To be great, you have to ask and seek advice from the best people! With former president FVR,” Migz said, referring to Fidel V. Ramos.
Hopefully the tobacco habit won’t be the first thing that you pick up from Ramos, guv.

Objective This study examined the effects of exercise on symptoms and activity in chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). Methods Twenty CFS patients and 20 neighborhood controls performed an incremental exercise test until exhaustion. Fatigue, muscle pain, minutes spent resting, and the level of physical activity were assessed with a self-observation list. Physical activity was assessed with an actometer as well. Data were obtained 3 days before the maximal exercise test (MET) up to 5 days thereafter. Results For CFS patients, daily observed fatigue was increased up to 2 days after the exercise test. For controls, self-observed fatigue returned to baseline after 2 h. Both CFS patients and controls spent more minutes resting on the day before and on the day after the MET. For CFS patients, self-observed minutes resting increased on the day of the exercise test. For neither group, a decrease of actometer recorded or self-observed physical activity after exercise was found. Conclusion Fatigue in CFS patients increased after exercise, but the level of actual physical activity remained unchanged.

Dogecoin Mining Scam In Turkey Costs 1,500 People $119M As Alleged Perpetrator Vanishes Into Thin Air
An alleged scammer has gone missing in Turkey with 350 million Dogecoin valued at nearly $119.14 million, as per local media reports.
What Happened: Turgut V. organized one-on-one meetings and promoted “Dogecoin mining” at luxurious venues in order to lure investors and build relationships with them, reported Interesting Engineering, citing Turkey’s TV100.
Post the meetings, Turgut V. gathered the investors on a Telegram channel and got them to transfer DOGE to the allegedly fraudulent scheme.
An investor told TV100 that they were promised 100% returns in 40 days.
At press time, DOGE traded 0.71% higher at $0.29 over 24 hours.
Why It Matters: Reportedly 1,500 people made transfers to Turgut V.’s operations in the course of three months on the promise of regular dividends before they were abruptly shut down.
Istanbul’s Küçükçekmece Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office has launched an investigation into the incident and banned Turgut V. from leaving Turkey.
As per TV 100, 11 other suspects are also under investigation, which includes the romantic partner of Turgut V.
Dogecoin, often discussed by Tesla Inc CEO Elon Musk, has captured the imaginations of many retail investors, a fact not unnoticed by scam artists.

Girl With a Pearl Earring tells the story of Griet, a 16-year-old Dutch girl who becomes a maid in the house of the painter Johannes Vermeer. Her calm and perceptive manner not only helps her in her household duties, but also attracts the painter's attention. Though different in upbringing, education and social standing, they have a similar way of looking at things. Vermeer slowly draws her into the world of his paintings - the still, luminous images of solitary women in domestic settings.
In contrast to her work in her master's studio, Griet must carve a place for herself in a chaotic Catholic household run by Vermeer's volatile wife Catharina, his shrewd mother-in-law Maria Thins, and their fiercely loyal maid Tanneke. Six children (and counting) fill out the household, dominated by six-year-old Cornelia, a mischievous girl who sees more than she should.
On the verge of womanhood, Griet also contends with the growing attentions both from a local butcher and from Vermeer's patron, the wealthy van Ruijven. And she has to find her way through this new and strange life outside the loving Protestant family she grew up in, now fragmented by accident and death.
As Griet becomes part of her master's work, their growing intimacy spreads disruption and jealousy within the ordered household and even - as the scandal seeps out - ripples in the world beyond

We woke next to the Palisde Lake, what a magical place! By far the best campsite I’ve had on the PCT to date. It was chilly and pulling myself from my war sleeping bag was all the motivation I need to get my butt going on the trail.
The sun had yet to hit us as I let out. Ladybug and Sissyphus weren’t far behind and Happy and Pickle seemed to be taking their time. The trail bombed down from the lake and followed a beautiful cascading waterfall as it did. Down and down it went and it really felt good to get the legs going. I paused for a picture when Ladybug and Sissyphus rounded the corner. We bombed down the canyon as a trio and chatted on about political history.
The granit towering walls were the theme of the day and continued all the way down, even once we walked back into treeline. We all pulled over for a break to check out an old washed out footbridge and Happy and Pickle come strolling in. Pickle was getting off at Bishop pass to meet his fiance and we bid him a goodbye as he pressed on.
We had reached the bottom of the canyon and it was time to climb. We hiked up and on, checked out the roaring creek, wandering deer, and lush green meadows below the surrounding granit cliffs. It was a wounderland.
Soon after leaving tree line again our wounderland turned to winterland. Snow patches that had been feeding the roaring rivers reared their heads, but we were determined. Ladybug and I pressed on as we were seperated from Happy and Sissyphus after taking a break hidden up high from trail.
We hiked on, postholing in the snow, crossing ice bridges above raging rivers, and seldomly scampering across some exposed rock. It was pressy sweet and I was loving the trailless mountaineering approach to the ascent. We climbed up to a beautiful glacier lake half covered in ice and filtered a bit of water.
As soon as we rounded the ridge we saw Happy and Sissyphus having a break on a rock. “Whats up guys!” We were happy to find them as it woud have been a nightmare trying to manage the pass and figuring out of we should pwait or go on without them. We pressed the last snow covered slopes together. Step after atep until finally Muir Stone House came into view!
This would be our camp for the night and we were extatic to fially have arrived. We all cooked up dinner as hikers came rolling in. Opa, Shoppin Cart, Buscuit, and Feather. Feather only stayed for a moment, long enough to share some food and drink with us. Buscuit and Shopping cart seemed hell bent on catching a nearby marmot. I let them be not thinking they could do it, until my surprise they did. Something in me had to protest and I said they should prbably let the lil fella go. Once that whole ordeal was over, we all settled down and watched the sun set over the mountains. What an action packed incredile day. To top it off we wouod be sleeping in a little mountain paradise!

From what I can tell the primary difference between these and the 363D is the lack of internal sound driver, and general aesthetics. How do these stack up against something like the original 363D or even the 373D? I'm sure they are a good deal but is the differences between the 37X and the 363/373 worth the price differences between them?
Massdrop described it something like this: they looked at the PC373D, asked Sennheiser to color it all black, and switched out the cable with the USB dongle for an all analog cable that splits into the PC standard 1/8" mini headphone plug and 1/8" mini microphone plug. and dropped the price in less than half. So, the sound should be exactly the same except it won't have the USB dongle which some people say makes the microphone sound nasally.
I have a sample PC37X, but I've never heard the PC373D with the dongle, but since I have my own soundcards I would have tried to ditch the USB dongle as fast as possible.

Action: Monitoring of 84 billion dinars within the strategy for poverty alleviation
On: Tuesday 29/5/2012 4:46
The new evidence / Essam Khuzaie
The Minister of Labour and Social Affairs Nassar al-Rubaie said the government allocated an amount of 84 billion Iraqi dinars as part of the strategy that his ministry is working on a strategy for poverty alleviation in the country.
Rubaie said that «among the provinces included in this amount is classified as the least income in the country and therefore the most poor are the provinces of Muthanna and Diwaniya, Diyala».
He noted that he «was the formation of committees for this purpose for the development of appropriate mechanisms to spend this amount to be taken into account some of the experiences in the world where that work is to give small business loans is the best way to eliminate unemployment and alleviating poverty as the provision of these projects to start production which is the case in many countries of the world ».

The Swimmers by Chloe Lane
Chloe Lane’s debut novel The Swimmers shows us the best kind of mother and daughter relationship. Erin and her mum are intensely close, they have the same brand of quirky humour, similar ways of looking at the world. Erin’s mum is a single parent; there are no other siblings, they have each other. But Erin’s Mum now has motor neuron disease which is swiftly, devastatingly progressing - ‘it had been some time since she had been able to speak. She could no longer eat or drink.’
Erin is entirely credible as a twenty-six year old, caught up in all the considerations and circumstances of her own life. She frets over her thesis topic, the ‘overwhelmingly mediocre’ response to the exhibition of her paintings, the break up with her (married) lover and yet the passage of the novel follows this very recognisable young woman over a weekend wherein she must accept, help with and witness the choice her mother has made to end her life.
The notes Erin’s mother is able to write to her daughter demonstrate that, while her physical world must be managed by others, her mind is very much uniquely her own; the requests and comments she makes indicate her strength, willpower and humour. For example, in response to the excessive array of dolphin ornaments in her room, she writes - SOS I CANT SPEND ANOTHER MOMENT WITH THESE FUCKING DOLPHINS.
Her wish is to ‘exit’. Lane confronts issues surrounding euthanasia with enormous sensitivity but with lashes of humour and humanity. Family relationships are explored both through recollections of the past and through the way each family member reacts to the present crisis. Beautifully written with convincing and highly engaging characters, I loved particularly the swimming motif which underpins this novel and the ending, which is so courageously and gently told.

The term "cyberspace" refers to the virtual computer world, specifically an electronic medium used to facilitate online communication. Cyberspace is typically a large computer network of many global computer subnetworks that use the TCP/IP protocol to facilitate communication and data exchange activities.
The central feature of cyberspace is an interactive and virtual environment for a wide range of participants. In the common IT lexicon, "cyberspace" refers to any system with a large user base or even a well-designed interface. Users can use cyberspace to share information, interact, swap ideas, play games, participate in discussions or social forums, conduct business, and create intuitive media, among other things.
The word "cyberspace" was first used by William Gibson in his 1984 book Neuromancer. In later years, Gibson criticised the term, calling it "evocative and essentially meaningless." Nonetheless, the term is still widely used to describe any Internet-connected facility or feature. The term is used to describe various virtual interfaces that create digital realities.
In many ways, cyberspace is defined by human societies. One way to define cyberspace is the use of the global Internet for a variety of purposes ranging from commerce to entertainment. We see cyberspace existing wherever stakeholders set up virtual meeting spaces. You could say that wherever the Internet is used, a cyberspace is created. The widespread use of desktop computers and smartphones to connect to the Internet indicates that cyberspace is expanding in a practical (if somewhat theoretical) sense.
Online gaming platforms marketed as massive online player ecosystems are another prime example of cyberspace. These large communities, when playing together, create their own cyberspace worlds that exist only in the digital realm and not in the physical world, which is sometimes referred to as the "meatspace."
To truly understand what cyberspace is and what it means, consider what happens when thousands of people who might have previously gathered in physical rooms to play a game do so instead by each looking into a device from remote locations. In a sense, gaming operators are bringing interior design to cyberspace by dressing up the interface to make it more appealing.
Indeed, gaming, as well as streaming video, demonstrate what our societies have largely chosen to do with cyberspace as a whole. Many IT specialists and experts, such as F. Randall Farmer and Chip Morningstar, believe that cyberspace is more popular as a medium for social interaction than for technical execution and implementation. This clarifies how societies chose to create cyberspace.
The practice of defending computers, servers, mobile devices, electronic systems, networks, as well as data from malicious attacks is known as cyber security. It is also known as information technology or electronic data security. The term is used in a wide range of contexts, from business to mobile computing, and it can be divided into a few broad categories.
Network security: It is the practice of defending a computer network against intruders, whether they are targeted attackers or opportunistic malware.
Application security: It keeps track of the security of software and devices. A compromised application may allow access to the data it is supposed to protect. Security begins with design, long before a programme or device is deployed.
Operational security: It includes the processes and decisions for handling and protecting data assets. This includes both the permissions granted to users when connecting to a network and the procedures governing where and how data can be stored or shared.
Disaster recovery and business continuity: It defines how a company responds to a cyber-security incident or any other event that results in the loss of operations or data. Disaster recovery procedures define how an organisation rebuilds its operations and information after a disaster to carry regular operations. Business continuity is the plan that an organisation uses when it is unable to operate due to a lack of resources.
End-user education: It addresses the most unpredictable aspect of cyber security: people. By failing to follow good security practices, anyone can introduce a virus into an otherwise secure system. Teaching users to delete suspicious email attachments, not to plug in unidentified USB drives, and a variety of other important lessons is critical for any organisation's security.
The severity of the cyber threat
Data breaches are becoming more frequent each year, and the global cyber threat is evolving quickly. A RiskBased Security report claims that in the first nine months of 2019, data breaches exposed an astounding 7.9 billion records. This figure is more than twice (112% more) as many records were revealed during the same time period in 2018 than this year. The most vulnerable sectors included government, retail, and medical services, with the majority of incidents being committed by malicious criminals. Some of these industries are more attractive to cybercriminals even though they collect medical and financial data, but all businesses that are using networks are vulnerable to customer data theft, corporate espionage, as well as customer attacks.

Varicose veins in the legs are not the last of the many problems facing modern women. Regular simple exercises for leg varicose veins can help in the early stages of the disease. Of course, the problem can be solved fundamentally - by means of surgical intervention, but usually therapeutic physical activity is sufficient, depending entirely on how advanced the disease is. Before starting to fight varicose veins, it is advisable to learn more about the disease before deciding whether exercise therapy is needed.
Types of Varicose Vein Disease
Medicine divides varicose veins into:
Both forms manifest as dilation of the veins in the legs. Acquired varicose veins are most commonly seen in women whose work is associated with a heavy or long leg load. For example, the disease often develops among sellers and teachers. These occupations involve women standing for long periods of time, so the load on the legs may not be excessive, but rather constant, often ending in the development of pain and varicose veins.
Congenital varicose veins are inherited from grandmother to mother and from her to daughter. If the older generation suffers from varicose veins, the probability of it appearing in the daughter is very high. To prevent the development of hereditary leg varicose veins, special exercises for lower extremity varicose veins can help. With regular physical activity, women can not only prevent the onset of the disease, but also reduce external manifestations through the dilation of the veins in the legs.
It happens that varicose veins in women are not yet obvious, but there is a risk of their occurrence. In this case, certain gymnastics are recommended on a regular basis. The same exercise applies to the determined initial dilation of the veins.
You should know that gymnastics for varicose veins includes elements that require you to lie on your back and lift your legs. In addition to fighting varicose veins, the suggested set of exercises also helps strengthen the abdominal muscles.
Prevention and treatment of leg veins
The following set of exercises are recommended at the risk of onset of the disease and in the initial stages of the disease.
- Slowly lift your leg as you exhale and hold it vertically. Then slowly lower the leg as you inhale. During the first exercise, you will feel some tension in the calf caused by a slight squeeze in the foot. Perform the exercise up to twenty times and repeat the four methods while alternating legs. What the exercise means: When the leg is raised, blood flows more actively from the venous bag, and when the leg is lowered, the blood in the vein fills sharply. This leg vein training is effective against varicose veins.
- Lie down and do circular motions with your feet. The movement of the feet should be smooth and unhurried, while the calves will be taut in one direction. Initially, the leg is on the floor, but after a few reps, it can lift slightly and continue the exercise, keeping the weight on the leg. This movement of the feet facilitates blood flow.
If you are overweight, the load on the walls of the veins increases significantly, which undoubtedly triggers the development of varicose veins. Often, doctors recommend blood-thinning medications to treat varicose veins, which help the veins work. There are many such drugs, so it is definitely not recommended to take them yourself. Even better if an experienced doctor chooses the necessary funding for you.
The most important thing when it comes to preventing varicose veins is strengthening the relatively thin muscle walls of the veins. This can be achieved not only through physical activity or through integrative exercise therapy. For the weakening of the vein walls, regular contrast showers can be the perfect help. Alternating exposure to hot and cold water works perfectly to train the veins in the legs.
There are simple therapeutic exercises for standing work on varicose veins.
|Standing, transfer your weight from your heels to your toes and vice versa.||10-12 times||This exercise works the calves, allowing blood to pass through the veins more actively;|
|Stand, stand on tiptoe, and slowly lower to your entire foot.||10-12 times||In addition to developing veins, this exercise strengthens the calf muscles and improves the shape and aesthetics of the legs.|
Jobs in which women have to sit frequently can also contribute to the development of the disease. In this case, a slightly modernized toe rise can help. The only difference from the previously recommended exercise is that you need to descend with your heels as much as possible and not lift your heels up.
Running, cycling or playground?
Physiotherapy exercises can recommend many different exercises to train the veins. Running, jumping rope, and other exercises at a leisurely pace are very effective for varicose veins. Cycling helps a lot too, but there's a little subtlety here. Leg vein training is most active when the seat is set as high as possible so that only the toes can reach the lower pedal. When riding with this bike setup, the calves are actively reduced and the pressure on the veins is increased, allowing for better circulation.
If you notice that as the dilation of the veins in your legs starts to manifest itself, it is best not to delay but to consult your doctor immediately. If necessary, he will be able to provide you with an effective exercise program. Only the right practice can help keep the leg veins in perfect condition.
Among the many different programs and exercises designed to combat varicose veins, the method of Dr. Bubnovsky, whose clinic studies exercise therapy as a means of combating a variety of ailments, can be singled out. In order to prevent varicose veins and treat diseases that have arisen, the specialists of the clinic develop a personal exercise program that takes into account the individual characteristics of the patient.

MoviePass is continuing to make changes amidst its cash struggles. MoviePass says 85% of its customers already see no more than three per month.
We have heard - and we have listened to - our MoviePass Community and we will not be raising prices to $14.95 a month.
The company is trying to burn less cash so it can stay in business.
Under the revised policy, set to begin on August 15, the $9.95 a month fee remains unchanged but MoviePass will drop its surge pricing and its recent move to block sales of tickets to recently opened blockbuster movies. Any additional films seen after the third screening will come with up to $5 discounted from the regular ticket price. At $9.95 per month, MoviePass is significantly cheaper than a single movie ticket. Meanwhile, annual members will not be subject to the new three movie limit until it's time to renew their subscription.
Now, many of those changes are being rolled back, though MoviePass isn't returning to its "good old days". Last week, the company said it would raise the price of its plan from $10 to $15 per month, but that's no longer the case.
President Urged to Stop Tweeting on Trump Tower Meeting Between Advisers, Russians
USA media then reported that the U.S. president had been involved in the initial statement his son issued on the meeting. He reiterated that he had no prior knowledge of the 20-minute meeting when it happened, adding that " it went nowhere ".
"Any industry-wide disruption like MoviePass requires a tremendous amount of testing, pivoting, and learning", CEO Mitch Lowe said in a statement, adding that the new pricing will "help to stabilize our business model".
"They will not be affected at all by this program, and even better, they'll stop hearing MoviePass is going out of business", Lowe told WSJ. Users would have to wait a few weeks before using their subscription to see blockbuster films.
Two law firms announced on Monday that they have begun seeking defendants for class action litigation against MoviePass parent company Helios and Matheson Analytics, claiming that the company over-inflated MoviePass's profitability when presenting information to investors, who then lost money. The new plan "will include many major studio first-run films".

Postal Service fights for survival
- Paul J. Gough
Under pressure from a steep decline in first-class mail and a $5.5 billion pension pre-payment, the U.S. Postal Service is in a fight for its life.
The Postal Service went before a Senate committee earlier this week to ask for permission to avoid making the pension pre-payment as well as to cut Saturday delivery in an attempt to stave off insolvency and reduce what had been an $8.5 billion loss in 2010. While the postal service does not get any taxpayer money, all of its big moves have to be approved by Congress.
Earlier this summer, the Postal Service announced plans to close as many as 3,700 offices and branches nationwide in a cost-cutting effort. The proposed cuts would fall hard in southwestern Pennsylvania, with 10 Pittsburgh post offices or branches that could close among the 126 in the western Pennsylvania district. Postal service spokesman Tad Kelly declined to comment about how many layoffs would occur in southwestern Pennsylvania. Reports have estimated between 80,000 and 120,000 layoffs nationwide. The Postal Service also wants to eliminate Saturday delivery.
Withholding the $5.5 billion payment will help the Postal Service by allowing it to have cash on hand to pay employees, creditors and other expenses so it's able to maintain its services, said Postal Service spokesman Tad Kelly in Pittsburgh.
"It's this albatross on our back, the $5.5 billion payment that is crushing our service," Kelly said.
One southwestern Pennsylvania Congressman, U.S. Rep. Jason Altmire, D-McCandless, told the Business Times that he supports making a change in the requirement that the Postal Service prefund its pensions. Altmire said "their balance sheet would look a whole lot different" if that change was made. Yet Altmire doesn't want to allow the Postal Service to drop Saturday delivery.

Petscan shows cancer has spread significantly, but is still just in bones. I have been on generic xeloda for 3 months apparently its not working for me. I was on ibrance & fasoldex before that and tamoxifen & zometa before that, and chemo, mastectomy & radiation before that. Now my doc wants to put me back on iv chemo to get things under control. I lost my hair the first time 3 years ago with chemo and i was ok with it because i knew it had to be done and after 6 months my hair would grow back. This time there's really no set time thst i will be on chemo, just until it no longer works and I'm really struggling with losing my hair again and maybe not getting it back.
Bad petscan results : Petscan shows... - SHARE Metastatic ...

My story close to yours. different drugs. In 09 lumpectomy,Chemo, radiation and then arimidex.. 2014 tumor on vertebrae wrapped around spinal cord. Surgery to remove and stabilizer plate between vertebrae. faslodex shots every 4 weeks and xgeva every 3 months. Taxol left me with neuropathy in fingers and feet.. I have been on oxycotin since surgery. spots found this Apr. Radiation caused more pain instead of relief. Disruption to nerves from breaking up of tumors?? My hands shake and numbing and tingling waist down. So next prednisone 20mg daily. i have only done 2 cycles ibrance and lesterole. Numbers very low and on my 2nd week off. my next option chemo too. Hair loss is hard to take. Hopefully it will be temporary. I'm sorry this is your next option and that we are running out oral dugs. I am hoping the best for you. I could be in same boat if my numbers don't improve. Good luck to us all.
I have a very similar story also, I refuse to do IV chemo ever again, I am now on Afinitor and Exemestane. I will have to say losing my hair was the least of my worries, it's my quality of life. I have heard there is new IV Chemo that is not as harsh as the old stuff and you don't lose your hair, you may want to ask your doctor about that. I have bone and liver mets and have tried every drug you have. If you want to try another oral drug the Afinitor and exemestane seem to be working for me. It's so hard! Praying for all of us to be able to deal with this horrible diagnosis.
I'm where a lot of you are. After initial diagnosis and 12 surgeries and 2 chemos I went on Femara. Diagnosed stssge 4 jiily 2017. Went on Ibrance, Xgeva and Faslodex. It spread faster. In all my torso bones. Was put on Affinitor and Aromasin in February. Had pet add can Friday. Dr is sure it's still spreading. He wants a port in and chemo. I don't want to go there again. That is not quality of life. Nothing is working for me. I may get kicked off of here for saying this but the pharmaceutical companies are making a lot of money. They are advertising new medications for everything. I firmly believe if they wanted there could easily be a cure for certain types of cancer. Just my opinion. I'm praying for all of us and sorry about your results.
My husband received a call today from a salesman selling these bracelets that seem to be popular. The salesman mentioned he started to use the bracelet when he got nauseated from cancer treatments. He even said at some point they thought his cancer spread because scans showed it all over. But, he said that was because the primary site had gotten broken down. Anyway, he said he is NED. He suggested I read “outsmart your cancer”.
I’ve done lots of reading...most recently Spontaneous Healing. Anyway, I ordered the book.
ARe bracelets magnets?
Honestly, I’ve heard mixed reviews. The bracelets is by EFX and mainly says it improves balance, energy and I guess athletic performance. However, a number of people say it helps w nausea. And some make bigger claims although studies say it could be placebo effect. Either way, it was strange that I have been experiencing nausea. Then my husband received a call because he had been researching it online. Interesting enough, the salesman shared how he had cancer. I’m not sure what kind. He had experienced nausea and said this was a huge help. Then my husband told him about me. The salesman talked about books he read and supplements, protocols he followed. It’s a $30 bracelet so I don’t think it’s big commission.
But I’m open that God sends me messages of hope. And so I ordered the book from Amazon and a bracelet. Maybe I’m crazy but I don’t think it was coincidence. ❤
I agree that the pharmaceutical companies r making a fortune and I find that it is difficult to trust the health system. Problem is that we r at the mercy of the drugs!!!!
I feel you. It is a money maker for them. I'm curious how your onc reacted to you stating you wouldn't go on I've chemo again. my story is similar. Dx 2000. Bilateral mastectomy, AC/Taxol, radiation, femara. TM up drastically in 2014. After too many scans, dx with MBC to peritoneum. Been in Xeloda for 12 months. Looks like it may not be keeping me stable anymore. Not sure if I can face the port/IV again.
I am curious as to if any of you have your blood glucose levels checked. I was diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic in 1976. I had the 8-hour testing which they no longer do. The 3-hour testing misses the diagnosis. I decided on my own to get Metformin and started taking it June 28th. A week later a skin cancer on my stomach went away. I had to cancel the appointment to have it removed. I have bone mets and got liver mets after going on Fluvestrant. That and Ibrance did not work for me. My dr. did the blood test and told me that both drugs should have worked. I told him that I think the reason they didn't work is because I am a borderline diabetic. When I saw him two weeks ago while going over my scans, he was pointing out my three liver mets. Then a few minutes later, we went back to them and he was surprised telling me that one of the mets looks like it may be dying. I asked him how he could tell. He said that the inside of the cancer cell will turn dark and a white line will form around the cell. He then said, "This one is darker and it's already starting to draw a broken white line around the cell." I had been on Metformin a month at that time. I have read an article that said that they think there is definitely a connection between diabetes and cancer. Most doctors are not aware or they choose to ignore it. I also read that if you are diabetic that you have a 23% higher chance of getting breast cancer. Also especially if you have diabetes in your family, you need to investigate this. New York Times in England, June 23, 2019 stated that Metformin is now being used for breast cancer and liver cancer.
Hi there My3girls
How much Xeloda were you on?
Sorry to hear you are having such a difficult time. I was on Xeloda 2500mg a day for the first 6 months then my medical scheme changed the script to a generic but it all worked fine for 11 months. Any odd fluctuation in my markers were more or less ignored by my oncologist as she tends to believe the scans are more accurate and the Xeloda needed time to work. Then I had progression to my liver met. Like you I had a mastectomy and radiation for er+ cancer in 2013 and was then put on tamoxifen but after 3 months I had a really bad couple of days and was given a CT scan which showed up a small liver lesion (less than 1x1cm) and was told basically that this was stage 4 and no cure was available. Thereafter I was on Letrozole for almost 4 years and though the Ibrance choice is not available to me on my medical scheme the Letrozole worked well till my routine scan in November 2016 showed a sudden increase in the size of the liver lesion. Xeloda kept it in check for about 10 months then the markers climbed and the next scan showed the lesion had now grown to some 6x4cm. Now the problem was that my oncologist was not comfortable with upping the Xeloda as my hands were beginning to show signs of hand-foot syndrome with hard peeling skin on the forefingers and thumbs (had very little trouble till that point) so we tried 3 months on Navelbine and another 3 on Faslodex - and the lesion grew again! Unfortunately I have run out of "friendly" options now as some of the combinations like Ibrance are not supported by my medical scheme and I certainly cant afford the price they charge here (I am 73 and a pensioner). Currently as I have no symptoms other than scan results and rising blood markers my oncologist has taken me off all treatment on the premise that I should enjoy my current quality of life as long as I can because tough chemo seems to be my only option now and that will impact on my life whether I like it or not. Like you I am struggling with the notion of undergoing chemo till it stops working, hair loss. nausea, fatigue and all that goes with it. Some say I am crazy not taking the chemo now while I am fairly well. I am not so sure!
Hope you will find a suitable treatment and if that is chemo it wont be too taxing.
I totally agree it's all about quality of life and I'm not going back down the IV chemo road- you are never the same again -on xeloda for past 2 years now numbers starting to rise- it's a waiting game- labs in 2 weeks!! Just going with the flow-
I was on 1500mg in the morning and 1500mg in the evening also got faslodex inj once a month. But the cancer grew like crazy the last 3 months. I ask My oncologist about maybe trying verzenio and she said we'd talk about trying it after we get it under control with abraxane. I still have a 13 year old at home and i've promised to do whatever i have to to see her graduate. So for now i guess chemo it is. I hope you are doing well and able to do all you want to!
Wow. This is me to a T. Thanks for sharing
I have had a similar journey with treatment when I was initially diagnosed stage II in 2013 and then after I was diagnosed stageIV in 2016. I progressed on Xeloda in 4 months. I just completed my second cycle of IV chemo (Doxil). No hair loss expected it is not as harsh as the original chemo. The other chemo option was taxol which I had originally, could cause hair loss. In discussion with my dr she seemed to indicate that we could do either chemo option and ultimately decided Doxil was way to go. Do have fatigue and can lead to Hand Foot Syndrome which I had significantly when in Xeloda. You can also explore if you can use cold cap or dignicap to prevent hair loss. Some centers are now offering and helping with costs. I did the penguin cold cap with my initial chemo. I had to cover all costs. I only lost about 50% of my hair. It is a commitment but something you can explore. Sending a big hug your way
Dr us wanting to put me on abraxane? I'll ask about the doxil. Thank you
Just looked up the doxil,
I had that in the first chemo coctail they gave me.
Do you get Xgeva shots? Xgeva stopped my bone Mets in their tracks.
I have not had xgeva? Is it similar to zometa?
Are you HER2positive? Women do quite well and tolerate it well on that drug and it does shrink cancer well. I am with you on Taxol IV. I really don't want to have to take that again!! It is all tolerable if you know there is an end to the IV treatment. Herceptin is on going but I do hear good things about dealing with it and do not think it is like the old chemo I had.
This is the worst. It’s one thing when there is an end in sight but for us there is none. We have to keep enduring treatment after treatment until we have no more options. I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy! I am going to start on Xeloda. Im scared of side effects but i have to use something. Did you have all the side effects?
I really didn't have any sides effects from xeloda besides being a little tired and my hands would get a little sore the last few days of the two weeks. I wished it would have worked for me because i felt the better on it thsn any other treatment. I did make sure to keep my hands and feet moisturized while taking it.
Hope it works for you for a long time!
I hope i have the same results. I really need this to work because doing iv chemo is not on my list of things to do. It annoys me that everything stops working after a while. I’ve been on ibrance with fulvestrant and i was feeling great then suddenly it just stopped working. Very frustrating because the last thing we want is horrible side effects. I hope whatever choice you make gives you results with the least amount of side effects.
I feel like you - everything seems to have a working life! I replied re Xeloda to My3girls - I used it for 11 months and was very happy on it barring a little skinning on my index finger round to my thumbs. however my oncologist seemed to think that when some progression was noted, a stronger dose was not a good idea looking at the palms of my hands?? Pity as it really was a comfortable drug for me. Tried Navelbine then Faslodex over a period of about 7 months but progression continued and, as my Medical scheme does not have Ibrance or similar types of medication on the formulary at all or not for my plan (too expensive here) I have no recourse now but chemo of which I am terrified! Fortunately I am asymptomatic (my mets are on my liver and one node nearby) and with the oncologist's blessing I am not on any meds at all till I begin to feel bad enough to reconsider.
Oh my goodness Izzy, I am so sorry to hear that. I wish you could take iBrance. I been on it for a year and now it stopped working but it was great. Virtually no side effects. Just keeping an eye on white cells. I took it with fulvestrant. Chemo is very scary. I don’t want it either. Im doing the oral and hope it works. If not it will be you and me in the same boat. I have met in bones liver kidney lungs nodes. Basically a mess! But if im gonna be sick as a dog laid up in a bed, I’d rather be dead as that is not living. That is merely existing. Long term chemo would be horrible. Let’s pray we both do better than anticipated.
My feelings exactly, Monica. Some say that is defeatist but I have spent years enjoying camping in the Kruger Park and gardening in my patch at home and to be unable to enjoy these things anymore makes me dread the idea of continued existence. Also my sister who lives with me, has spent so many years looking after older people in their homes in UK, and my mom when she became a bit frail (she is a nurse and specialised in midwifery but had to leave Zimbabwe when work became unavailable) I really do not want her devoting the rest of her life to caring for me! It is a difficult question and all the reports you hear about chemo do not give one much encouragement if one may be on it long-term! Lets just keep on hoping and live as best we would like.
Good luck and hope you do well
I’ve already given up so many of the things I used to love. Like hiking, dancing, running etc that i already feel cheated. I go about everyday slow as a snail thanks to a tumor that is blocking my airway, but i am grateful that even at a slow pace i can get around. No way do i want to lose that bit of freedom and living. My internal voice when i get opinions from others about how i should take chemo and fight says...shush! Until you have to live this, do not opine. My external voice says...yes of course. In the end it’s my decision and i want to live and not be a burden to anyone. Do you still garden? I’m a city girl so I’ve never gardened but I sure do think it’s fun and rewarding 😊
Tough about the airway - I am so sorry. That must be wearing but, as you say, while you can still get about, however slowly, it is cause for some joy. Like you, my opinion is ultimately what matters most to me regarding my ongoing treatment so prefer uninformed folks to keep their advice, however well meant, to themselves. Just had my 3-month visit to oncologist - blood counts still going up regularly but still no obvious symptoms - as she says, without counts and scans we wouldn't know I had cancer! So I shall continue untreated till discomfort reigns.
Yes I do garden. We grew up on 2 acres in Zambia and later Zimbabwe with a very keen rose gardener for a mother! My first property here in South Africa had a postage stamp for a garden (I still managed 40 roses - in pots as well as ground!) so when we decided to buy here in the Lowveld I wanted a garden and eventually ended up on a nicely manageable 600sqM where I can grow all sorts of more sub tropical plants, aloes and succulents and a small veggie garden from which we get tomatoes, beans, leeks and carrots all year round.
I find the exercise required to mow, dig, prune etc does give me some much-required movement but would like to be able to do more walking (too much arthritis in my ankles) or yoga or something too. They do say exercise is a help both mentally and physically.
All the best and keep in touch with this great site - it really helps
I’m sorry about your airway! Is there any radiation treatment as short as possible? Or because it’s causing breathing problems can’t they remove it. I mean I know we have Mets but you should not have to not be able to breathe! I have plural fluid and even though it’s small if I overdo it I can’t catch my breath for a min and it’s scary. I hope they can do something for you and I will pray for you!🙏🙏🙏💗💗
