I’ve had some problems with my eyes over the last three weeks, culminating in all day at various hospitals seeing five doctors along the way. The news was promising although not likely to be quick. They are talking of perhaps months or even ongoing treatment over the future.
The issue isn’t my eye per se, but [...]

Last week our city was inundated with three months rain over a few hours, hailstones the size of golf balls and bigger, flooding in some areas and part of a hill slid down into ground floor appartments. We were comparatively well off. My husband’s shift work had him home a couple of hours before the [...]

Mostly our lives go on from day to day in very predictable ways. Then on occasions it becomes startlingly obvious that things are going to change. It might be that someone you love gets a terminal diagnosis. Or it might be that your job comes to an end. Or one of your children has a [...]

I was reflecting on successful affiliate marketer Lynn Terry and how she brands herself as a single mother. I had to smile when I realised that she was as technically savvy as the guys on stage at Ed Dale’s Coming Home 2 seminar in Melbourne last weekend. But I recognised that much of her drive [...]

I have spent almost a year searching deeply within the medical literature trawling for indicators of what can improve our chances of good health. There is a strong division in understanding between the standard medical practitioner and the alternative health brigade.

This is the same for today’s material. When I did my research into [...]

My sister, a business coach from New Zealand was over visiting (which is why I haven’t posted for a week or two). While here we took the opportunity to take a six hour workshop to share some of her expertise with people thinking of setting up a business. Frances has taught about 6000 people business [...]

In 2008 I was finally able to get my research published in a mainstream health journal. It took years and many versions before I managed to achieve it. Now I am turning that research into an ebook to be available within a month or two online – Beat the Medical Odds.
This was a study of [...]

I’ve been doing a lot of thinking – that’s one of my hobbies, thinking – about the issue of loneliness as one gets older, in fact at any time. You can be happy with your circle of family, friends and associates and then something changes everything. It could be that you have to shift for [...]

I have been considering how to put all of the things I’m passionate about together in a package people would love to buy. My passion is finding out information and putting it together in a useful way. Firstly when I was ill I was interested in how to get better and I spent about 15 [...]
