An old work mate of mine, who now lives in South Australia, went into hospital for an emergency appendectomy last week.
During surgery, they discovered a tumour on her adrenal gland and then immediately after surgery, she suffered a heart attack!
She is not yet 50.
She has asked me for some ideas on how to help heal herself naturally. She is also following Doctor's orders and will undergo further surgery and whatever else they decide she needs, but she wants to do everything possible to get well.
So I spent the day doing lots of research to give her some ideas.
I certainly don't profess to be an expert, but the good thing about food and nutrition, is that it's safe!
She still has a young son living at home with her and she is concerned about what will happen to him, if the worst happens to her.
She also doesn't want to concern her family with her fears, so I am her sounding board.
Her mother, who is in her 70s, was one of my teachers at TAFE in the 90s when I did my Administration course. So I feel like we have a bond. We genuinely care about each other and I know that her family, especially her Mum, is worried sick. They are a very close unit.
Aside from that, I also spent some time searching for text books for my course.
They are very expensive to buy brand new, but I was lucky enough to find one of the books, second hand, but never used, in Townsville, and had very friendly discussions with the lady selling it. Half price is always good value!
Now I'm sitting up til stupid o'clock watching a replay of the academy awards!
Nite all.
