Why You Can’t Afford To Get Sick Without Healthcare In America
Susan Cassidy at Progressive Libertarianism is an idiot. From my feature on CNN, there is this quote from a naysayer on the issue: “Her hand written letter says nothing of her having the freedom to get the service and pay out of pocket, at possibly an outrageous cost, but get the life-saving service none-the-less,” writes…

I am Obamacare and This Is CNN
Holy crap! I’m on CNN!. My story is up. And as of right now, it’s right on the main page too. Holy cow. How surreal is that?? To see yourself on the front page of CNN?? I’m kinda freaking the heck out right now. In a good way! You can still see my original I…

Post Hysterectomy – 8 Months Post Op
I haven’t updated in awhile so I thought I’d post another photo of the healing progress. June 5th was eight months post op from my Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (TLH) and my incisions are looking really good. The main scar on my left (viewer right) is fading nicely and is much less red then it was….
PhoenixFire Designs Shop Updates
Sorry no entries since the weekend. I’ve been busy mainly with shop orders and updates the past few days. Since it’s what’s been occupying my time, I thought I’d take a moment and show off some of what’s been keeping me busy. 🙂 First off, I’ve completed my full moon “trilogy” as it were. Now,…

This, That and The Other
Love & the Neurologist Yesterday (Monday the 14th) Love had his follow-up with the neurologist. Turns out the CT scan he had done a few weeks ago was perfectly normal. See, Love has this “whooshing” which kinda pulses in his right ear. Had it for years. But, when the whole vertigo-turned-out-to-be-migraines attacks started a year…

Selfish Grief
I’ve discovered with Rand’s passing that grief has many faces, shows up in many different ways and comes and goes with varying impact – even long after you think it should still bother you. It was two years this March and many days it’s easier to deal with; the grief is well-worn in and doesn’t…
Boring Weekend
Nothing really to talk about, hence the lack of posts in a few days again. Just more of bullet-point comments than anything, so here goes: Love’s CT scan The neurologist wanted to get it done to see if they could track down the source of the throbbing/whooshing/pulsing problem he has in his right ear. Doc…
Rainy Saturday
The forecast says, “1.47 inches of rain coming your way” which I find amusing. It’s so specific a number. It’s still sunny outside currently, but if you look at the expanded radar, it’s clearly on it’s way. Which is good because we’re in an “extreme drought” situation here in the Tampa Bay Area. (And indeed,…

Post Hysterectomy – Almost 6 Months
Today is day 161 or 5.75 months since my surgery. Next week will be 6 months since my hysterectomy. Crazy to think six months has gone by already! In an effort to continue to help those looking for information and healing timelines for a hysterectomy, here’s where I am at. At six months, you are…
