Musing of a Manic Writer: July 2009
http://musingofamanicwriter.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Musing of a Manic Writer. Thursday, July 30, 2009. Tarot for Writers - A New Way to Gather Ideas. As writers we are able to find ideas in even the most mundane of items such as the wagging of a dog’s tail, but there are times when you just want to apply your forehead to your desk and bang repeatedly – this does not work…it only damages your desk and hurts your forehead (I have the bruises to prove it). The tarot cards can also help you through writer blocks as well as give inspiration when you are feelin...

The Dragon with MS: The Beginning....
http://dellabbuckland.blogspot.com/2009/08/beginning.html
The Dragon with MS. Wednesday, August 5, 2009. 8230;Sounds like a good place to start. I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) in 2004 [although I mistakenly wrote 2003 in previous articles – chalk up a mark for the disease/disability]. I continued to work but MS took its toll. All was not lost, because of the MS I was brought back to my one true passion – writing. I have also sold two short stories with http:/ www.sorceroussignals.com/. Diamond Days Stone Weeks:. The Multiple Sclerosis Diet:. Http:...

The Dragon with MS: The Rare Side of MS
http://dellabbuckland.blogspot.com/2009/08/rare-side-of-ms.html
The Dragon with MS. Monday, August 10, 2009. The Rare Side of MS. Ah, the “joys” of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) – well, that’s an oxymoron – but hey you have to keep up a positive attitude no matter what, right? Paroxysmal symptoms: These are sudden and momentary spasms of an arm or leg and often confused with seizures. Sometimes they are can also occur in the muscles used for speech or swallowing. They are a result of abnormal electrical discharges in the brain that have been damaged or scarred. Pseudobular...

The Dragon with MS: Medical Studies
http://dellabbuckland.blogspot.com/2009/09/medical-studies.html
The Dragon with MS. Wednesday, September 30, 2009. Pharmaceutical companies go through extensive testing of a medication before the FDA will approve it and many of those tests involve human subjects - count me as one of them. Now I have no health insurance, so I am not able to get my meds and if I do, they are in excess of $1,000 for a one-month supply - not feasible. So what does a person do? Enter in the medical study or clinical trials. There are risks (as with all medication) and they are fully expla...

Musing of a Manic Writer: The Toy Squeaks For Thee
http://musingofamanicwriter.blogspot.com/2009/08/toy-squeaks-for-thee.html
Musing of a Manic Writer. Saturday, August 1, 2009. The Toy Squeaks For Thee. After a few throws, Toby jumps up on the couch to catch his breath. I had to ask about his obsession with plush squeaky toys. His response, “bark, bark, woof, growl, bark, yip, woof, bark.” His head cocked to one side and his ears fall forward as if I understood the explanation. When the toys squeak, it squeaks for thee and the dog wants to play. Della R. Buckland. August 1, 2009 at 2:33 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
