“Tinnitus Truths”

Yes, most definitely. I used to have a cat as a child. Then I also had owned two cats when I was in my teens and 20s. But I don't think I will own a cat again, as it is simply too devastating when they have health issues or die Nowadays I watch cats on YouTube...

 

Bill - I understand so well.
I remember waiting in the vet’s waiting room to have one of my babies released from their pain.
I was in floods.
You walk in with a Pussycat and then you have to walk back through the waiting room with an empty box.
The young lady saw my distress and said,
“Mr Hewett would you like to go out through the rear door?”

‘Oh yes please.....’

 

If Tomorrow Never Comes
Ronan Keating

“Sometimes late at night
I lie awake and watch her sleeping
She's lost in peaceful dreams
So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark
And the thought crosses my mind
If I never wake up in the morning
Would she ever doubt the way I feel
About her in my heart
If tomorrow never comes

Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face this world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes

'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life
Who never knew how much I loved them
Now I live with the regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much she means to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel
If tomorrow never comes

Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face this world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes

So tell that someone that you love
Just what you're thinking of
If tomorrow never comes.”

Jazzer,
You're pulling my heartstrings man
Thanks

 

Aha! Bill has a soft spot! I knew it!

@Jazzer Hope your baby gets better soon. He's so beautiful.
I love cats, but these darn allergies don't let me have one.

Was thinking about a hairless cat? Wondering if I would still get allergies??

 

I don’t know Out,
but if I caught sight of one of them
in the middle of the night it would
frighten me shitless !!! (hahaha).

 

@OnceUponaTime
Over here in lil’ old England we reckon that Yanks invented allergy syndrome - let’s face it - over there it seems like you average about five allergies per capita!

But I have to let you off.
When I did my thesis I found out that allergies went back much further........x

 

Interesting, I never had allergies until I moved to where I live now. Must be in the air??..LOL

 

@Jcb
Once more into the breach my friend.

When two people disagree it does not mean that either of them have:
climbed on their high horse
spouting integrity,
turned aggressive,
turned angry,
turned nasty,
turned shitty,
become an arse’ole,
changed their character.

All it means is that they disagree on some point of fact.
FACT.
Please examine the facts.

Yes everybody must voice their opinions on any topic, can offer encouragement etc....
which is always nice to see.
But can you not understand that generalisations like
“it gets better and better,”
and “you will be able to do more and more,”
are simply wrong and offensive to severe sufferers, who can only just about cope with a massively reduced life.
Have basically lost every f***ing thing!!!

I am not nasty, aggressive, shitty, or anything of the kind.
Like you, I am hurt, suffering, sensitive and kind.
I will never win a popularity contest, nor come first in the competition for
‘the nicest person in the whole wide world.’
But I wouldn’t want to.
My honesty is too important to me.

I hope we three can still be friends.
That is my wish buddy.

 

Bahahahaha...what Jaz, you dont think he's cute??

 

......er......I’m hiding behind a sofa as we speak....x

 

Hiya buddy

- nice to hear from you xx

 

“Love is the Best.........xx”

Is it just me - or has the appreciation of humour become a thing of the past??



- it’s a funny old world....x

 

I understand perfectly about Annie being self-conscious. Poor little thing, be sure to give her a few extra hugs and reassuring words. -TC

PS- Are the blue bells coming out soon?

 

We have a bluebell wood in our estate.
I’ll walk up there and take a picture today TC.

 

In my Facebook post this morning,
from someone who obviously knows me quite well:

 

Labouring under an illusion....x

 

My tinnitus is loud permanent and severe, but we must not run away with the idea that we are helpless and that there is nothing that we can do.

Every time throughout the day that we become aware of our noise, and simultaneously become aware that we are coping well and are not allowing our comfort and composure to fail - we are winning and building our strength.

I practice lying in a hot bath every morning, eyes closed, asking my tummy to find its own natural breathing rhythm, and drifting off into a lovely meditative reverie.
I hear my sounds - without listening to them - and feel perfectly at rest.
There is no stress.

We can learn to acclimatise to our predicament, and this can become our habitual mood.
Hope this helps folks,

Dave x

Believing, as I do, in the value of distraction, I will continue with my usual type of programme....x



‘Is that Mute enough for ya?’

 

Love this Jazzer
Brilliant
Adios amigo
