When a homeless couple moved in with a millionaire
This piece of article inspired my friend Angela to write about her grandfather.
My grandfather took homeless men into his home, he washed and clothed them and provided the love they needed to heal their emotions and past...they were all great people, some grew vegetable gardens at his home and provided fresh produce for his family....he was always taken people off the streets until he died at 57 in 1950's. And this wonderful thing was more amazing as my grandfather also owned the largest law firm in New Zealand, was well respected...but I dont think many people knew of his continuous deeds. A true man of God, he saw, wept and lent his hand out.....would have loved to have net you Brice Scott!

you inherited a rich heritage. Your legacy. My parents brought back a
blind man, not blood relative and he stayed months
It is just today that I had morning tea with someone from my hometown. It was this anecdote that Mum and Dad brought home a blind man who lived for months. He was not blood relative. Angela Scott

when Mum brought the Blind man home, I was 17 years old. I complained how much he was eating. Mum said, he ate virtually only rice, and eating the extra bowl of rice won't make us poor.
When I wrote my ##From China to Borneo, I was thinking hard for my preface. I remembered this blind man. God had been gracious to Mum and Dad, all nine kids have a college/uni education.

selfcheck
A
young Australian mum said she was left "embarrassed" when Woolworths
staff members confronted her and accused of trying to stealing items at a
self-checkout.
In a Facebook post, by Dianne Renner, she said her anonymous friend "Sue" was "publically humiliated" by the incident and criticised the store for their behaviour.
Later on, the Pakenham Cardinia Leader revealed the woman who was accused of stealing at the Victoria, Australia supermarket was Megan Rogers.

I never use the self check. When they first started, an old man said, you watch it, first self check, then it will sack you.

Apprenctice tradies.
I wrote in #Pain, many boys became tradies.
Once upon a time. Students from Sarawak, Singapore and West Malaysia came on self scholarship. We were very fortunate to meet Bill and Christine Starr. He had a spa pool and it was a Godsent. When Bill built his new house, we became tradies and put on the main beam.

Mental health
Mental Health affects many people. There are many
factors that cause people to suffer from depression.
I have written a fictitious book. While I was
researching to write a sequel for my Cry, Of Oppressed women, I was interested
in the Social welfare in uplifting of babies. I got interested in Oranga Tamariki
or the former Child Youth and family.
Thyroid cancer is very much on the rise. But while it’s
one of the fastest growing cancers — up 274 percent
since
1997 — it’s still a rare disease. According to the
American
Cancer Society, 60,220 people in the U.S. will be
diagnosed
with thyroid cancer this year, and 1,850 won’t survive.
Young women in their childbearing years are most at
risk,
though it can affect men, women and children of all
ages.
However, because thyroid cancer is rare, it’s not in
the
spotlight like other cancers. And the exposure it does
get
often overlooks some of the real issues that go along
with
this cancer.

"It is a good reminder to all health professionals that when our patients leave us, the story does not end for the parents. The detail is amazing, and every little thought and action seems to have been recorded as it happened, and then has been reflected upon.
"For parents undergoing similar experiences this book could be a great comfort. For health professionals, I would see it as essential reading."

I am very proud of Ann.
Ann, my name is Lori and I believe I recently read your book (I am in
Toronto, Ontario, Canada) when Dr. Andrew James shared it with me. I believe he
took care of your son. Am I correct? If I am, I was blown away by your book-
beautifully written. I hope you don't mind that I have written to you. Lori

Diary Of A
Bereaved Mother: Goodbye My Baby – has touched the lives of many mothers who
have gone through the same agonising ordeal. Penned with such raw honesty, the
book soon became a message of hope for mothers who have lost their babies.

It is a
personal reflection of a way of life that has moved on and provides insight
into a family and its relationships. It is most of all a work of love and
respect for the Chan and Kong families and for Father and Mother.

Upton Country Park Deborah's drawings
really look so lovely. Thank you so much for including them in the exhibition.
Many people, especially, stop for quite a while and look and comment on
Deborah's drawings.
