Stem Cell..Yea

CC, my wife, saw this.   I find it quite wonderful and incredible. 

This is the product of research our President had to reinstate Federal okay and funds for..I can only post this link.. It show an amazing,  experimental, working device that takes healthy stem cells and puts them into damaged skin including burn victims.

I say, ‘Imagine what we could accomplish  using no resources for destruction’.  I believe the majority of folks are good.

A Tired Sadness..

Winds would blow long ago something carries fate..perhaps wind..maybe not..winds cannot be

 

late..blanket clouds warm cities..country rural way..wild howls in the canyons..coyote lends a say..yowl or growl..big cat stalks up wind is his friend..makes no noise in wind..walks as the saplings bend..stars approve each natural move..forest shakes and moans..crazy winds go North all ways..a man is most alone..

Winds blow through alleyways..down Main St. in town..big city folks bundle up..whan ‘Hawk’ is around..sidewalk vents warm homeless..city..money way..wild howls between buildings..a victim lends a say…foul or drunk parasites hunt up wind is his friend..makes no noise in wind..stalks as folks walk and bend..stars are hidden lost in greed lost in city light..crazy winds go North all ways..sometimes a man must fight..

Tell me of your story..speak clear where you been..if we share we share in truth..once, then again..everything seen worldwise..each life drawing breath..story full lived in love..until there’s nothing left..mirror tells your story..keeps it shiny clean..your soul in life is glory..some know just what I mean..cats live and express their universal soul..knowledge clean as yet unknown..has no need to control..

Moral found in moments passing, ‘quick there did you see? just wraith call..something astral..name is lost to me’..other turns with eyes that burn says..’little slow there brother’..must be joined in soul..to see in time with another’..first a race to show your face..then money lends a hand..inside each soul universe I swear it as I stand..born a scholar each..perfect for each need..what does money wan?..why does it foster greed?..

As with most folks I know money comes dear.  When I have to pay for a device to communicate with others I do not even know..at cost if I do not..It is baffling..one small loan from a friend speaks the complicated nature of any shekel, ducet, penny, peso,, dollar or gold that can and sometimes does foul friendships..fiendships so rare..Peace T@cftd

Stupid and Uncaring..

Hello..I copied the news article from a news service.  I wrote this..

It is depressing that our government finds money to

'I promised you nothing..then took what you have..this time..moreso'..

destroy in war but cannot understand the needs of its own.  Perhaps the world is beyond national boundaries and we are growing to it.  It certainly is something to think about..leaders, historically on one hand say and rightly so..’murder is horrible’.  They would never take a firearm and put a bullet through a person..yet they will sign a declaration of war.  What is war?.many times nothing more than an extension of the economy.  Many times an excuse, finding license in things like ‘the spoils of war’ and ‘all’s fair in love and war’..I have to wonder how this can be? When the economic attacks started on social security I thought, as did many others, it would be seen for what it was and turned around..denying medical care is unacceptable..as soon as it becomes fact..what will happen..for many I feel it will be the last straw..I hope this is resolved well..for the people..not some greed soaked liar..

I think it misappropriates the tax resource of our economy to wage war for any reason save defense.  I do think defense can be used to the point of being counterproductive for life on this planet.  I think that concerns us all.

Peace t@cftd..

WASHINGTON (AP) — It’s become a symbol of sorts for the federal government’s budget dysfunction: Unless Congress acts before Jan. 1, doctors will again face steep Medicare cuts that threaten to undermine health care for millions of seniors and disabled people.

This time it’s a 27.4 percent cut. Last year, it was about 20 percent. The cuts are the consequence of a 1990s budget law that failed to control spending but was never repealed. Congress passes a temporary fix each time, only to grow the size of reductions required next time around. Last week’s supercommittee breakdown leaves the so-called “doc fix” unresolved with time running out.

A thousand miles away in Harlan, Iowa, Dr. Don Klitgaard is trying to contain his frustration.

“I don’t see how primary care doctors could take anywhere near like a 27-percent pay cut and continue to function,” said Klitgaard, a family physician at a local medical center. “I assume there’s going to be a temporary fix, because the health care system is going to implode without it.”

Medicare patients account for about 45 percent of the visits to his clinic. Klitgaard said the irony is that he and his colleagues have been making improvements, keeping closer tabs on those with chronic illnesses in the hopes of avoiding needless hospitalizations. While that can save money for Medicare, it requires considerable upfront investment from the medical practice.

“The threat of a huge cut makes it very difficult to continue down this road,” said Klitgaard, adding “it’s almost comical” lawmakers would let the situation get so far out of hand.

There’s nothing to laugh about, says a senior Washington lobbyist closely involved with the secretive supercommittee deliberations. The health care industry lobbyist, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to make public statements, said lawmakers of both parties wanted to deal with the cuts to doctors, but a fundamental partisan divide over tax increases blocked progress of any kind.

When Pain..

Illustration of the pain pathway in René Desca...

I have had a few engagements with serious pain.  The other day I was giving some serious thought on when to take the meds necessary for relief of pain until the causes can be cured. 

As with most things negative or whose sole purpose is to bring news of trouble, or something that needs tending..I think pain is pretty much useless.  As with fear it is seldom, if ever your friend. 

Here ’tis..When pain becomes such an item in life that one lives in expectation of the next ‘blast’..it is time to relieve it lest it warp clear thinking and a cool head.

Peace Tony
