Thank you for this video. I had radiation treatments to my brain two years ago. It is only today that I am feeling pain in my teeth and gums. I use ACT everyday and it helps a little, but it feels like I have a major infection.
I have never heard of this art form and it's very beautiful and this video's description is helpful. However, note to the camera-person - please position the camera in front of the artist's hand, not behind as you were covering much of what she was 'showing' us.
Who did a fabulous job with this video. You explained the concepts well in a way that is accessible to anyone. I just watched someone else's video under graphic art in the boat made it sound so serious and precise that I couldn't finish watching the thing. The next video I chose was yours and I'm very glad I did. Thank you exclamation points
Thank you for this explanation. I am getting the workup and didn’t know why they were doing certain tests. I am encouraged by the information in this video. My level of fear is not gone but it is decreased.
Me parece un método de expresión para liberar emociones sin la necesidad de interpretarlas pues se evita el que invadan tu intimidad , cercano a respirar
This is, by far, the best video I've seen, thank you so much!! I just made my first one today and about to do another, inspired by you! Just a 4x4 tile, gotta start small!
I love this lady. She has a positive attitude and sees possibilities no matter what she does. She has ideas and solutions that can turn anything into a masterpiece.
I just had surgery to remove the lesion as it's being called to remove radial scar. It was then that I was diagnosed DCIS. AM I going to have to additional surgery?
This is a very good lecture. Lots of great pearls to take away from it. I wish though you had talked a little bit about the anti-proliferation, aunty metastasis, and pro apoptosis benefits of cannabis oil. Anyone watching this video should also check out Dr Christina sanchez.
Radiation can damage other organs in the body and have permanent side effects. Really caculate the percentages of risks. Hormone therapy has side effects. In my case, DCIS, stage 2 9 ML nodule invasive also estrogen positive, clear margin with a lumptectamy. Clear lympnodes. I opted out for radiation and hermones plus I had a test to measure reoccurrence. Came in at the lowest number. Very low chance to reocur. The lumptectamy is still healing after 3 months. I still have discomfort and pain at the incision sites, which is quite extensive...not just two 2" incisions like I was shown on a video!
What are your thoughts on Imvexxy vaginal inserts? It was prescribed for me for vaginal dryness. I am 58 and past menopause. However, I spotted on and off for several months. My doctor did an endometrial biopsy and it came back clear. I am not sure about inserting this cream. I would love to know your thoughts.
IF YOU HAVE CANCER CK OUT JOE TIPPENS CANCER PROTOCOL FENBENDAZOLE, FENBENDAZOLE REDUCES AND KILLS CANCER CELLS WITH OUT ANY SIDE EFFECTS AND CAN BE USED AS A PROPHYLACTIC AGAINST CANCER. JESUS LOVES YOU ❤❤❤
I have Adenocarcinoma Left upper lobe stage 1. The biopsy made it difficult to breathe in and out w/out pain for 8 days. Not looking forward to surgery at all.
Thank you Cheri! I'm new to this, and your website is very helpful. You provided many examples, which illustrated a range of applications. The constant in your works is the rounding off of overlapping lines. That consistency unifies your examples. I'm ready to start now, and will follow your website. Just what I needed!
Until the Federal Govt realizes there is MONEY to be made with cannabis or big PHARMA gets in on it, docs will act like they know nothing about how much cannabis can help and little busy bee nurses who know NOTHING about cannabis like this one need to just shut up unless they ARE going thru it. Enough with the preachy bs. (She says she is not judgy but she is totally judging in this video, and this type of no info and no personal experience with CBD or Cannabis just shut up.
I hope it is okay to make a friendly suggestion. I think it took about 13 minutes to get to see the alcohol inks getting applied. I wanted to see how it spreads on paper. Show that, then show your ink drawings on the alcohol ink. That would grab my attention. My curiosity has been up for a long time. Suggestion. At start of video, give some footage of what it looks like to use the inks. Then explain after that. It will encourage beginniners to hang in there. For me, 13 minutes of explaining is discouraging me to stay with the video because I have nothing to relate to about how the inks work. I like your designs on the ink. They are really nice.
Thank you doctor! It’s really scary dealing with chemo induced neuropathy. I don’t know what my future holds. Already so much stress to recover from cancer & now weakness on hands & legs, risks of falling. It’s devastating.
Finished chemo about two months ago and the neuropathy is getting worse and is driving me crazy.About thirty years ago I suffered nerve damage at the knee in my left leg giving me drop foot for a few months and permanent numbness in my foot and up to the knee. It was pretty much healed over time but the chemo seemed to kick it back to how it was when it happened.I can't tap my foot or even pull it up when sitting or standing.
Thank you for your detailed presentation. I’ll be undergoing a VATS procedure later this year and I’m seeking out all of the information I can on prep/recovery.
Thank you, very interesting video. I have neuropathy in my fingers and legs for 7 days after having Taxol and Carboplatin chemo. The ice gloves help my hands, but it always comes back. I am Type 1 diabetic also. I just hope this chemo doesn't cause it to continue after my treatments are over. It's very painful.
I had right upper VATS lobectomy in August 23. My nodule was 8mm and turned out to be a squamous cell carcinoma. I also had three lymph glands removed and thankfully the cancer was completely excised. My recovery was uneventful, with only mild discomfort from the intercostal nerves. I only had sporadic periods of breathlessness which faded within weeks of my surgery. I have had a further CT scan and have an appointment on May 13th with the thoracic team for a check up. I’m feeling very positive about things and can’t thank then enough.
I had oesophagus cancer removed by robot. My blood pressure dropped and after a CAT scan it was found I had internal bleeding leading to multiple organ failure, dialysis, a haematoma on my lung and a suspected heart attack. I spent 6 weeks in intensive care which was by far the worst part plus I had a tracheotomy meaning I had no food or water for weeks. Plus I could not speak. A disaster and I will be taking it further.
I used to do this as a kid back in the 70s and it was just a form of doodling for me at the time. My single parent used to wonder why I would spend so many hours just making all these curvy lines and circles and then filling them in and I remember telling her one day that I didn’t want any sharp corners, that everything needed to be rounded out really nice. And here we come decades later to discover that this is actually beneficial! I’m definitely returning to it as I’m permanently physically disabled and in constant pain for spinal degeneration and nerve damage, fibromyalgia and other things. I’m battling depression and anxiety as a result of the nerve damage and the fibromyalgia so I’ve armed myself with various alternative healing techniques such as Qigong, EFT Tapping, Sound and Light Therapy with a device, CBT Techniques and now this. It’s in “stacking” things you find helpful (without overwhelming yourself) that you can start feeling a little better every day. I pray we all benefit and heal.
