RE: Selfish

phew!! was about to give out to you, till you updated that !! sorry you had to go through it but glad you gave your self esteem a kick up the a&&!!

RE: Selfish

I would consider him selfish to say such a thing to me, without a thought for my feelings.
i would most certainly not be selfish enough to wish him to stay with me in a 'life of unhappiness' and would be gone so fast my feet wouldn't touch the ground( thanking my lucky stars!!). i'm selfless me!!

RE: Why do so many CSers believe that an apostrophe makes a word plural?

exactly- I could not care less than i already do about it.... i have reached the lowest point of caring

not my actual opinion, as i don't like to see it IRL, but when people are typing fast here, I can let it slide- even do it my'self sometimes

RE: Previous commenter!

yeah right!! then you're too young for me

RE: SAY IT LOUD.....

sorry- , but i don't understand what you mean. who aqre the 'powers that be'??

RE: Do we have a Right to choose "Life" and Death?

you may like to think so- but that is the crux of the matter, there are some diseases that slowly rob you of your ability to have any say in this matter, so unless you consciously choose at a very early stage of that disease to take matters into your own hands and end your life, then you are at the mercy of either the professionals who cannot legally help you die and can only act within the parameters of legal pain relief, or the family who choose to honour your wishes and face prosecution for carrying out your wishes to not allow you to suffer.

some people say?think? that 'life is paramount' whereas i believe that 'quality of life' is paramount.
is it better to live an extra day/week/month... when you are in constant pain, struggling to breathe, incontinent, etc etc and there are many etc's? or to accept that life as a pleasureable thing has passed. surely noone else has that right to decide that other than the person that is living that life??

I believe that noone that has not experienced the horror of watching someone die slowly in unneccessary pain should be allowed to make that choice- sadly I have

RE: SAY IT LOUD.....

my point exactly S!! ( but like i say- can't speak for all that said it!)

RE: Previous commenter!

well- depends if the blond wig stays on or not

RE: SAY IT LOUD.....

playing devils advocate here- i'm sure some have- maybe all... but what have those that said 'yes we can' done since this post appeared??

like i said, I'm sure some/all have. me? i haven't done that much- i do have( relatively small admittedly) monthly direct debits for some charities, give clothes to the local charity( not those stickers that come through my door that are for clothes collections where they SELL the clothes to 3rd world countries), bought the 'Big Issue' that supports the homeless- but i don't actually DO much to change things.
what do people do here that help change things.? Honestly , i am not criticising, just maybe looking for suggestions of ways i or we,could do more. Not in the position to go off and give time in poor countries( though i did once volunteer for VSO when i finished my agricultural degree and was so put out that they wanted 'experience' )

we can all 'talk the talk' but maybe we need to think of ways to 'walk the walk'. A CS fund for hunger or something?? not beyond the realms of possibility??

more things kids say

I may have posted this before but it still slays me!!

what have your kids said that just is not what you were looking for.??.
once , after my youngest had had a fire drill at playschool, i was in the car with the 3 or them, and being the perfect mother that i am( no comments please) i was trying to ingrain the lesson on their minds.. I asked as we were driving along..' what would you do if your clothes were on fire?? expecting the 'stop drop and roll' answer... from the back of the car came...
























''well I wouldn't put them on''

that kid will go far

RE: You just got to love those blondes....................So love this one...............

bless your honesty!!

RE: Do we have a Right to choose "Life" and Death?

as a nurse who has worked with terminally ill people in the community- i most certainly believe in it.
have been totally angered by people that have said in the media that hospice nurses( whom i worked side by side with) have a 'licence to kill and hasten death' That is soooo not the case, and i have never seen a single persons death 'hastened' by the drugs that are given to relive pain/nausea/secretion...( i have seen death occur in a painfree and dignified manner, death that was going to happen at that time anyway))... but i think this is the thing that makes some people feel that 'euthanasia' is practiced regularly by medical professionals.

I also work with people that have horrendous diseases that take from them the ability to move/feed themselves/talk/ go to the toilet/breathe unaided, and whatever they may feel about it, I KNOW that if I was in that situation, i would want to have available to me, the choice to end that non curable suffering, when I chose to do so.
I would never force that suggestion on anyone else, but would hate to be forced to be a prisoner in my pain wracked, quality-void body, because of 'do gooders' who feel it is their right to dictate what i should suffer to soothe their own conscience

Oops can you tell this is a sore point with me??

RE: You just got to love those blondes....................So love this one...............

RE: 65 % of Americans (USA) are Obese. Canadians, 50%. Why ?

fast food is more expensive than healthy home cooked food so surely the poorer the person the healthier they should be??
