Thanks for that ken Nam is now home since I brought out this blog last year. when some ask me in PM ( like so many still often do) his whereabouts and disappearance, it's far easier just to bump this up then explain it all again.
Fewer than 10, I can never understand you men when it comes to war but like I've said, the old fool is home and I've not yet to date, suffered an injury ... ...
WOW more built up then I expected .... you've one motorway that has me completely gobsmacked, the palace or whatever it is, lit up in the night...absolutely fabulous
Strained my eyes, but I couldn't see your rose garden
And my little corner in the world my house included.
If he lived a good life up till the age of 60plus... then where his story is true, I don't think think it's a sad one, nor do I believe he is/was punished for living for himself... jmo
Some would say, living for others is a punishment too
Cheers MB & Luke for your comments regarding Sinead O' Connor
Time now to put this blog to bed but before I do..... I just want to say I find the media very hypocritical right now when it was them that shadowed her truth by focusing more on her mental issues instead.
I liked Sinead even when she was hard to keep up with sometimes ... but one would only need to look past, to see her truth within.
We all know her view on the catholic church and why she exposed them... Her final battle was with lifting the lid on the lack of care and the negligence regarding mental illness in Ireland. Sinead always claimed her son was discharged from care whilst being suicidal, but because she was portrayed as crazy, who really listened whilst she continued to protest.
Wednesday a none national, posing as a physiatrist was sentenced for sexually assaulting many of his vulnerable patients. Wednesday very disturbing reports were aired regarding CAMHS/TUSLA. Wednesday Sinead died without knowing she had won her final battle, or perhaps she did .. what's victory without closure.
From darkness into light.... May Sinead be resting in peace
MBK, birthday greetings to you you know best what works for you, long may it continue. As most here have said, you're a gent... can't disagree with anyone there lol
You're very lucky to live in a society you trust to care. after listening to our evening news yesterday, we Irish are disgraced yet again but this time round we can't blame the Catholic church like before, this time its on the government along with our own people, or the lack of.
Just when I thought yesterdays news could not get any worse...... it happened when it broke, we lost one of our own
Well it's always good to hear from you, when you're in town and yes" you've understood me perfectly.
Drugs and drink can just be another wrong road to go down and once they do, the depression is no longer seen but an addictive abuser instead... whom some people have less compassion for and those who do, often struggle with.
That same week my aunt took her life, so too did a local eighteen year old boy.... hours before he hung himself he too was turned away from the hospital when he sought help.
Two weeks ago it was in our local paper how a father drove his 18yr old son X amount of miles to our hospital, poor lad was in an accident which caused him a finger... they took his finger put it in a fridge, sent them away suggesting a BB and come back in the morning when someone will around to treat him then... with no pain treatment, both father and son were sent on their way.
This evening another story broke of a serious s*xual assault on an elderly patient in a nursing home and since reported, another 21 cases/complaints are to follow
To think we Irish are building the most expensive hospital in the world, yet we don't have proper skilled professionals to REALLY care for our most vulnerable, in my books its not a hospital but the most expensive show case I've ever seen ... wasted good money that could be well spent elsewhere.
Shucks Luke, that's one less person in the world to keep you on the up and ok... if its any consolation, you've still got me
Maybe follow in Tony's footprints, look at all the friends he had LOL you may even find yourself a girlfriend in the process of it all, but hopefully not as ugly as the one he had
