This is why I Rock!

I was woken up at 3am by DKM. He was in pain and his bowels had stopped moving. We went to the ER where they treated him with morphine. By 7am he was feeling better so they send him home. Hopefully a liquid diet today will help. His X-Ray showed [...]

Dark and Twisty

I’m definitely in some sort of holding pattern right now. I’m not excited about much, my body feels bloated and aches, and I’m almost finished Season Three of Grey’s Anatomy on DVD (fans will recognize the phrase “dark and twisty”.) I’m tired.

If

One of the reasons I am a teacher today is because I had some truly wonderful teachers as a child. My grade seven teacher, Mr. Stevens, used to give me extra projects to do at home. I gladly accepted these, and spent hours trying to problem solve and fulfill his requests. One [...]

Mad Pride

From the New York Times article on the subject:
Just as gay-rights activists reclaimed the word queer as a badge of honor rather than a slur, these advocates proudly call themselves mad; they say their conditions do not preclude them from productive lives.
Mad pride events, organized by loosely connected groups in at least seven countries including [...]
