We heard a few good pieces of wisdom while ringing in the new year this evening: A man on an elevator said, “Here’s to making this year better than last year,” and a fellow travel enthusiast who is tempting me to buy a piece of contemporary aboriginal art said, “When in doubt, buy! [at least while traveling]”
What New Year’s wisdom did you receive this year?
Cheers to you, and a very happy 2011,
Brian - Frank, I’m sorry to hear that. Hopefully the chemo goes well.
Don’t know if you saw Kate’s post on sugar a couple weeks ago (http://watsons-unleashed.com/2010/12/living-with-addiction/), but one of the comments from a breast cancer survivor noted that dietary sugar (and simple starches) feeds cancer. A board-certified M.D. also told us this a few years ago when we took his healthy eating workshop. Our normal cells can live off of just protein and fat (there are no essential carbohydrates), but cancer cells need sugar to survive.
Frank - Wisdom I received this year: When the doctor tells you it’s time to get a colonoscopy, don’t put it off. I did and, well, I start chemotherapy on Wednesday. :-/
