Someone has been qualified for assistance and will get to live in some nice digs with its own theater room and nice dining room for the rest of Her life if she behaves.
I love her very much but her dementia has been one of the major stress points that still hasn't been lifted from my shoulders like a ton of bricks.
I'm still waiting for one more settlement in life regarding 8 years and for Covid to end once and for all. the US it's still an issue. is it still a problem anywhere else in the World? seems like everyone else has moved on. is Covid still a thing in China or UK?
WTF is going on? Traffic is back to normal.

We're still on lockdown here in Ireland, but the Government has taken responsibility for the costs associated with the pandemic.
This sounds like good news for you TJ, congratulations.

I know exactly what you mean. The demon living in your chest, right on the Solar Plexus. The I got cancer right in that spot when I was 25.
It's rare, a good diagnosis is rarer, and successful intervention is even rarer. Lucky I survived.
Yeah, stress used to feel just like having a demon living in my chest. Sometimes I still feel that old tension, but I have learned to let it go. Maybe it's just due to all the nerves that got cut up in my operation, or pulled out due to being "necrotised" - eaten and dead.

and even then it's about the 5 year remission before they say it's totally cured. so the 5 year extension usually means it will survive it. Doctors usually don't say "We'll cure it. we;ll extend life and if it hits the 5 year remission it doesn't come back"
keep on eating healthy.
It's becoming more curable, but also more common.
I had stage 4. It had spread to the lymph nodes, my neck, and even my lungs.
Chemo killed it - I hope - and it's been gone 10+ years now, after which the chances of remission are so low they blend into the chance of actually getting it de neuvo.
As a result they no longer want to see me for annual screening CT scan x-rays.

It's a thing in the UK as well, the government has imposed restrictions again after an increase of cases.

most people wear them now in Berkeley when I walk around there to get exercise. its a nice hike up the hill, but when I see someone on the sidewalk coming at me I'll usually step out into the street and walk along the driver side of doors to avoid a person. other times I don't have to. people do the same.
But here is a unwritten rule that people should just follow. If traffic moves on the right or left (regardless if Europe or US etc) the person should walk the way traffic moves. in the US always to the right side of the street. so it is the same going both ways. people walking against the flow of traffic even on the sidewalk is annoying. especially when you get a group of assholes who wont single file when someone is walking towards them. its just common sense and only dickheads or someone about to challenge you to a fight would do 30-40 fucking years ago. but everyone today likes to be difficult.

Alameda County (Where Oakland and Berkeley are located) has 1.7 million people. just in this county alone. there are nearly 8 million people in the entire San Francisco bay area.
out of the 1.7 million statistics show
Alameda County
18,873 cases
295 deaths
I am not under minding covid being serious. but 295 people died out of 1.7 million people. or is it 19,000
19,000 out of 1.7 million in infected and 295 people died. but in Italy 8% died. 8 percent died. 8 out of 100 people died. or 1+ out of 10 died.
explain?

there is now close to 40 million people in California. 40 Million. that's more than the entire population of Canada.
795,000 people infected
13,500 dead. in California. out of 40 million
I hope this trend doesn't go for the worse. people in Oakland area are scared of this. People in LA act like Covid aint shit and hit the beaches. so thats why we have a huge number in LA. but LA has 10 million in its county. the entire LA basin has like 20 million people.
so 1:44 people got covid in California. 13,500 died. that's 1:2963 ratio
but in Italy. 1.2:10 ratio of death
How? I know we didnt test everyone. but that is the number. percentage of 1:2963 is 0.00035 and not 8.0
What the fuck happened in Italy? young people were left to rot in their homes for weeks because the police in Italy wouldn't let the dead bodies out of the house until they had dug a hole for them.
