    Hospital pneumonia kills Wollongong man waiting for aged care bed

    I am so sorry to hear about this, breathing problems are the pit and going to hospital all the time is not fun. I am sorry that none of the treatments work for you. Good on you for being pig headed, that is sometimes the only way to get things done. You have a great day as well.

    Hospital pneumonia kills Wollongong man waiting for aged care bed

    I suppose it is early days with VAD and some foreign doctors, it would be against their beliefs? But Australian doctors probably are waiting to see how it goes before they commit to offering their services. I remember when my mother was dying with cancer in a nursing home, the doctor just kept...

    Hospital pneumonia kills Wollongong man waiting for aged care bed

    You don't need to tell others to make your own decision. It is an individual choice. i was just thinking it would be easier to do VAD if you had the help of medical professionals who might make it more comfortable for you.

    Parvovirus cases rise in Kimberley with vets treating up to 12 dogs a week

    The shelters here are offering vaccinations at a reduced rate for parvo and panleukopenina in cats. I urge all pet owners to get your animals vaccinated. This is in Queensland, I don't know what other States do. I would go without food to have my cat vaccinated against these horrible diseases...

    Hospital pneumonia kills Wollongong man waiting for aged care bed

    I am not in agreement with VAD for myself but feel that if someone else wants to go down that route, it should be made easier for them. I have chronic lung diseases and my greatest fear is ending up in hospital drowing in my own fluids. @gamiry I hope you don't have to use the sleeping pills...

    Checkout checkpoint shows why new exit gates leave shoppers divided

    There has been a lot of shoplifting in my local Kmart, it wouldn't worry me about the gates because Coles already does it. If you are going to thieve, there has to be some deterrent. Just makes the people who are honest more aware of how serious the problem has become.
