Bandito is 13.5. He's been a challenge all his life with us. Biting people. Peeing in the house at night. But he's devoted to me and we've had a good relationship. Now tho...... He's been diagnosed with Cushings Disease recently. He also has liver failure. The first round of pills for $191 for...

I've been missing @Dreamz. Wonder if she's OK? With her health, her ex, her sis in FL and so on.... On TEG, Hoodat went missing and then reappeared a couple of years later. Turned out his wife had died and he went into a care home. BobM passed away - I found his obit. On an AirBnB forum, two...

I did a search on the word cholesterol. I found many comments, but thought if we could condense all of your anecdotal knowledge into one thread for future reference, it would be helpful to current and future members. (and me). 68 yr old F, 40 lbs over nourished, healthy all my life. Until...

Mine is: 1. have more patience with my Mother. Aauuugghhh. She's 80 and leaving today after a nice visit. So get over it, Barbara. 2. get yer rear in gear and get going. Walk, stroll our property on the incline part (when its not raining and I'm not working on the ark) 3. switch to tomato juice...

I hope those CO fires aren't near where you live. They just had some news about them and the numbers of homes that have burned down reminds me of the San Diego fire a few years ago.

I just had a nose bleed. I cannot remember which decade I last had one. No, I wasn't picking my nose nor blowing it. I was bending over the cat box to clean it out when I felt a runny nose starting. Nope. A nose bleed. Compressed my nose, just under the bony part with a tissue. Blood went down...

Hello fans of the above. I've been dying to tell you all that I went to a class on Thursday. A food prep class on a ton of new things for me. This lady was about 60'ish and she and her DH have been 100% organic for 5 years, and she takes a ton of natural vitamins, orders from iHerb and a...

Today, from my CSA delivery, I've encountered two items which I have never bought nor used, and in one case, never heard of. Green Garlic: what is this? Just garlic that has not been allowed to mature? The two stalks are stunning - baby garlic bulb on the end with a very long straight stalk...

I did a search in this forum to see if its been discussed before. Nothing found. I was ordering from DripWorks and found that they had a magnet that you place on the incoming pipe of your water system (city or well) and the magnetization will soften your water. Living here now, I find that the...

My realtor told us about an off grid home about 6 min from where we live, up a paved road, and then off onto about 1/4 mile of a rutted dirt road. Evidently its a foreclosure, and the ppl took all the light fixtures, the toilets, the solar system, the elec covers, range, refrig, etc etc etc...
