  2. Hello all - I haven't been around a lot because of some things going on with the family. That being said - I know the DV prayer warriors will do what they do best for my family. First - my 18 YO daughter has Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. This can raise some nasty complications - and unfortunately she has a number of them. It has wrecked havoc with her autonomic nervous system and created some serious conditions. I am taking her to the hospital on Friday to have a feeding tube emplaced because she can no longer eat solid food without throwing up. Even things such as milk or ice cream have about a 50/50 chance of staying down. This procedure is being done in a city 170 miles from here because none of the GI specialists in this town will do it because she is only 18. We have to go to a pediatric GI specialist because she is under 21. Her current Drs. have referred her to the Mayo Clinic, and we have an appoint the first week of March. Please pray for her as we travel through this. Secondly - my wife has slowly gotten worse. Her back has been slowly degenerating over the last few years, and she is now to the point she can only stand for a about 5 minutes, walk maybe 100 yds, and can't sit in a standard chair. The only way she is fairly comfortable is in her recliner with pillows under her knees. She is actually on pain management (pain patch 24/7 and pills every 4-6 hours), and is still in a level of pain every day. She doesn't really complain about that - what she does complain about is not being able to help me around the house, going outside for walks and doing her photography. She's really a pretty strong woman. We recently switched Dr. for her - getting away from our town, which has a reputation for Drs. doing only what they need to do to get by...very few will take the extra step. We are now seeing a Dr. in a city 90 miles away. The first thing he did was order a full spine MRI - prior to this it has only been her lumbar and thoracic. What they have found is she has Tarlov cysts, spinal stenosis and empty sella syndrome. What this boils down to for her is pain, muscle weakness, muscle spasms, sciatica, depression, anxiety and messed up hormones. We are going to see a neurosurgeon tomorrow to see what our options are. Please pray that this man is given inspiration and guidance to find an answer to her conditions. Thanks in advance...may God bless all of you also.
  3. The average person probably does not think about the impact of things like the ebola virus directly or even indirectly on their everyday life -- It did not even hit me until just recently as I began to read more - I am probably still too late to stock up on cocoa without the price already being adjusted - I use a lot of cocoa - probably every week with all the brownies, cookies and candy I make and give away -- Just as I have written before - everything has a ripple effect -- With things like this virus, storm devastation, war & other major catastrophes -- though ----- one can wonder how and what was pre planned -- hummmmmm....... <3 <3 <3 UNEEK Ebola Outbreak In Africa Threatens World Chocolate Supplies As Harvest Nears The West African nation of about 20 million people, also known as Côte D’Ivoire, has yet to experience a single case of Ebola, but the world outbreak has already impacted this nation's economy, raising prices on chocolate around the world. Ivory Coast is the world’s largest producer of cacao, which is the raw ingredient in M&M’s, Butterfingers, Snickers Bars, and your favorite chocolate bar. Experts say that the Ebola outbreak in and around the Ivory Coast region has placed a major crimp on the workforce needed to pick the beans that end up in chocolate bars and other treats just as the harvest season begins. Photo by Ian Waldie/Getty Images Due to the Ebola outbreak in neighboring countries, officials in the Ivory Coast have shut down its borders with Liberia and Guinea, putting a major burden on the workforce needed to pick the beans that end up in chocolate bars and other treats just as the cacao harvest season begins. According to data from the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, the Ivory Coast produces about 1.6 million metric tons of cacao beans per year, or about a third of the world's total. More than 8,000 people have been diagnosed with Ebola in several African nations, and nearly 4,000 have died in Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone. Next to Ivory Coast is Ghana, the world’s third-largest producer of cacao beans with 15 percent of the world’s total. Investors are also worried about this potential drastic economic impact. Jack Scoville, an analyst and vice president at the Chicago-based Price Futures Group, said prices on cocoa futures jumped from their normal trading range of $2,000 to $2,700 per ton, to as high as $3,400 in September over concerns about the spread of Ebola to the Ivory Coast. The world's chocolate makers have also began taking donations for an Ebola initiative, hoping to stop the rapid spread of the disease and help those who are sick to recover. http://www.examiner.com/article/ebola-outbreak-africa-threatens-world-chocolate-supplies-as-harvest-nears?cid=taboola_inbound
  4. Experts: Ebola Outbreak, Black Death 'Plague' Spread From Africa as Viruses Most assume that Black Death quickly ravaged the fourteenth century western world was a bacterial bubonic plague epidemic caused by flea bites and spread by rats. But the Black Death killed a high proportion of Scandinavians -- and where they lived was too cold for fleas to survive. A modern work gives us a clue into this mystery. The “Biology of Plagues” published by Cambridge University Press analyzed 2,500 years of plagues and concluded that the Black Death was caused by a viral hemorrhagic fever pandemic similar to Ebola. If this view is correct, the future medical and economic impacts from Ebola have been vastly underestimated. Authors Dr. Susan Scott, a demographer, and Dr. Christopher J. Duncan, a zoologist at the University of Liverpool point out that the Bible used the term “plague” to describe a catchall of afflictions resulting from divine displeasure. The researchers analyzed the “Four Ages of Plague”, including “Plague of Athens” from 430 to 427 BC that killed about a third of the city; “Plague of Justinian” from 542 to 592 AD and killed 10,000 a day in Constantinople; Black Plague from 1337 to 1340 AD that killed a third of Eurasia; and a series of plague outbreaks in Europe from 1350 to 1670 that killed about half a number of city populations. Historical records of the Athenian plague paint a very similar picture to the Black Death and the accelerating Ebola pandemic. Like Ebola, the plague is believed to have originated in Africa and then travelled northward. Athenians suffered a sudden onset of severe headache, inflamed eyes, and bleeding in their mouths and throats. The next symptoms were coughing, sneezing, and chest pains; followed by stomach cramps, intensive vomiting and diarrhea, and unquenchable thirst. With flushed skin burning from fever and open sores, 50 to 90 percent died in the second week of symptoms. Desperate to cool off, contagious victims may have transmitted the disease to other humans by jumping into public cisterns and watering troughs. Th bubonic plague was first recorded in China about 37 AD and still is a worldwide public health problem, with thousands of cases each year. The most recent outbreak occurred in the Chinese city of Yumen on July 22, 2014, where a man died after handling a dead marmot. The Chinese military responded by quarantining 30,000 local residents. The first symptom of bubonic plague is a mild and non-alarming fever. But bubonic swellings follow within a few days. Sufferers either go into a deep coma or become violently delirious, paranoid and suicidal. Most victims die within a few days. Recovery is almost certain for those whose “buboes”, sores lymph glands, fill with pus. But before antibiotics, the appearance of black blisters was considered a sign of imminent death. Bubonic plague is very seldom spread from person to person. The disease needs a rodent population, usually rats, to carry fleas to spread the infection to humans. Once the local rats die out from the infection, human infections tend to tail off. For the 2011 book, “The Black Death in London”, author Barney Sloane, an archaeologist who worked on medieval sites for the Museum of London and is now attached to English Heritage, documents the 1348-49 epidemic that killed two thirds of the city could not have been bubonic plague, because “The evidence just isn't there to support it.” “We ought to be finding great heaps of dead rats in all the waterfront sites but they just aren't there. And all the evidence I've looked at suggests the plague spread too fast for the traditional explanation of transmission by rats and fleas. It has to be person to person – there just isn't time for the rats to be spreading it.” The World Bank just estimated the cost of Ebola in West Africa is $32 billion over the next two years as it spreads from Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone to its larger neighbors. This estimate assumes that the Ebola hemorrhagic fever can only be transmitted by direct human to human contact with bodily fluids. But The United States Center for Disease Control (CDC) in June 30, 1995 published guidelines (44(25);475-479) for managing patients with suspected viral hemorrhagic fever, including “Lassa, Marburg, Ebola, and Congo-Crimean hemorrhagic fever” to prevent hospital acquired “nosocomial transmission”. According to the CDC: “Epidemiologic studies of VHF in humans indicate that infection is not readily transmitted from person to person by the airborne route.” Although airborne transmission “is considered a possibility only in rare instances from persons with advanced stages of disease (e.g., one patient with Lassa fever who had extensive pulmonary involvement may have transmitted infection by the airborne route). In contrast, investigation of VHF in nonhuman primates (i.e., monkeys) has suggested possible airborne spread among these species.” On October 2, 2014, the CDC published Ebola Virus Disease: Transmission, stating: “Ebola is not spread through the air or by water”. The CDC states “Only mammals have shown the ability to become infected with and spread Ebola virus.” They suggest “humans, bats, monkeys, and apes” as transmitters. But this mammal to mammal theory should concern Americans, since 18.6 billion rats are the most populous mammal and six cities with the largest rat populations on earth are in the U.S; including: 1) New York; 2) Boston; 3) Baltimore; 4) Chicago; 5) New Orleans; and 6) Atlanta. Senator and ophthalmologist Rand Paul warns that US officials are underestimating the danger posed by Ebola, because, “This could get beyond our control.” The World Health Organization agrees “There is no evidence that the EVD [Ebola] epidemic in West Africa is being brought under control.” The WHO’s current “Ebola count” is 8,033 cases and 3,865 deaths from Guinea, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Congo, Spain and United States. Australia, Germany and Turkey just reported new cases and some authoritarian nations may be suppressing disclosure of Ebola cases. A pandemic is “an epidemic (a sudden outbreak) that becomes very widespread and affects a whole region, a continent, or the world due to a susceptible population.” True pandemics cause a high degree of mortality”, like the Black Death and Ebola outbreak. The probable logic behind President Obama not closing U.S. airports to travelers from Ebola-ravaged countries is that with the death of first U.S. Ebola patient and numerous cities reporting potential cases, the U.S. risks becoming an “Ebola-ravaged” nation. http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2014/10/09/Risks-Rise-Ebola-Pandemic-is-Same-Virus-as-the-Black-Death
  5. Ninety percent of Americans are chronically dehydrated, and the body often misinterprets thirst for hunger. This video gives some great information - like how much water to drink each day, why room temp vs cold water, and some symptoms of dehydration. http://screen.yahoo.com/surprise-side-effects-dehydration-050000603.html
