SECOND IN MY SERIES ABOUT HEALTH, HEALING AND DOCTORS
In my previous article I described the results of my November doctor visit. From several doctor visits over the past three years, the diagnosis has been hypothyroidism, and anemia. Never been diagnosed with any serious disease. Haven’t taken an aspirin nor tylenol in seven years and only take one prescription pill, Synthroid. But I take a lot of vitamins and minerals, I will discuss later.
As I have related in previous articles, I grew up with hearing my mother repeat like a mantra, “Be your own doctor, your own counselor, own banker and own preacher.” Plus prohibiting any mention of diet or retiring.

PART ONE OF SERIES ON HEALTH ISSUES
The news has been dominated most of this year about the proposed Health legislation. However, it’s really not about health issues, but politics, and political power, money, centralization of power, insurance companies, and taxation.
Growing up in the Great Depression years, I’ve lived long enough to have experienced that going to doctors and health professionals was about healing and curing diseases and injury problems. Fortunately, born with good genes, and parents and grandparents living into their nineties.

Comment on the post “San Paku: Three Sides of White Showing
in the Eyes (Issue 146).”
Author: Valerie Spinner
Comment:
George Ohsawa, who brought macrobiotics over from Japan, wrote an
excellent book on the subject called, *You Are All San Paku*. It is
easily explained when you understand the concept of Yin (pronounced Yeen)
and Yang (pronounced Yong). Every food has different qualities and some
cause cells to contract while others cause cells to expand. For
example…a baked potato causes cells to contract more so than a
strawberry because the liquid has been cooked out of the potato, while the
strawberry still has it’s original water content- just as a sponge- a cell
absorbs water. A cracker, however, is more contractive than a baked
potato because it is virtually devoid of water.

What a year this has been!!! Looking back on 2009 as it winds down, so much has happened. Internationally, nationally, locally, and personally.
This year marked 300-plus lengthy articles I have posted since my beginning, two years ago. When my son called one day and said he would furnish me a team of helpers, if I would just write. I did not know what a blog was, nor an octogenarian. I type with two fingers, and my ten-year old granddaughter knows more about a computor than I do. However, I jumped in to where angels fear to tread and began writing. About anything that pops into my head.
