Guest guest Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Thank you for your welcome and confidence in us, Kathleen. I appreciate your ss perspective on this. Grumpy, cranky and tired is certainly going to have a negative impact. Ron seems to be doing fine, so far, but I'm struggling a bit still from the aftermath of our trip to Oregon. Nothing much seems to appeal to me right now in the food department. I'm sure this will sort out. I look forward to getting excited again. We've just discovered farmer's markets here in San Diego, which run all year, so we can get really good veggies. I'll look for the Mollie Katzen book. Maybe that will inspire me! :-) Thanks again, Rosieliz , Kathleen DesMaisons <radiantkd wrote: > > Rosieliz, > > I wanted to respond to this. I think the key is what is best for > healing.

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 Excellent links, Louanne - I'll be passing them on to my dh ALWAYS something men are interested in (and women too, of course, but for less direct reasons). For the benefit of this and other new members, I am reposting here a link I posted 3 September. It's about Dr Ornish's study - very impressive too. http://www.naturalnews.com/024015.html Good topic! Thanks for starting this thread.
