Hi Pinzia I'm really sorry to hear of your terminal diagnosis. I agree with you. Were I in your position, I would refuse treatments, apart from strong pain meds. In fact, without wanting to cause offence to you, or others, or open a controversial debate (but then why not), if I were in your position, I would want to say all my goodbyes and take a magic pill or potion, rather than have to be prolonged. For what? I'm afraid find this country archaic in it's attitude to euthanasia. The Swiss and Dutch make thousands from Brits, flying out and paying substantial fees, wanting to end their lives in a quick, painless, peaceful and dignified way, when I'm sure such people would prefer to be at home, or in their own country. I wish you peace Pinzia, for what time you have left, and that it be without any suffering. If Leigh's still out there looking in - I hope you're well and you're hubby's still doing well after his brain tumour scare. I've just been recapping on one of your posts where you mention adrenaline being constantly produced when you have a diagnosis such as BC, exercise being a good way to rid it. And crying being a good to rid the build up of cortisol. I've been researching into Hypnosis, how it basically helps you retrain your own mind with depression or anxiety, the positive thoughts producing small amounts of serotonin, the "feel good" hormone. These can then be increased with just practicing such, which apparently then in turn help to dispel the adrenaline. Hypnosis doesn't dwell on the past or "causes", as standard medicine or psychi/psycho does, all of which tend to ask, "What's wrong, what are your symptoms, tell us your history". The re-iteration of which, over and over, then tends to maintain the natural body's "fright or flight" adrenaline, in the reliving, and that in turn inhibits the "feel good" serotonin production and levels. All makes a load of sense to me. But one of my biggest problems is getting down to stuff like this, and then maintaining the treatments long enough to have effect. But if I do, i'll let you know the results. Keep doggy walking and cycling, Blackisler2. Hope you're all still listening to the music, Rockstarchic, Rachy, Wavey and any others of you who find it therapeutic, like myself. How's you, little fairy? Animals do it for me too. So funny. But I was blubbing at a programme the other night, that showed a magnificent bull Elephant that had recently been shot, just for its tusks. So the human torture, needless killing side of, breaks my heart. Loadsa love to everyone DoolallyDelly xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
