The system is stuffed and it leaves me speechless, the most vulnerable are being neglected, that includes the poorly paid workers. And yet there is big money made by the aged care oganisations and also the law firms that take on or (sometimes don`t take on victims) for compensation. Where is...

Right now I have 2 family members in hospital, my 89 yr old aunt (lives with me) and my husband. My husband was promised an in home care package and was over the moon, then found out it would probabley take up to 12 months for services to kick in. He has stage 4 emphysema and had a life...

I hope this new doctor helps you, the situation is disgusting. Don`t give up!!

There is no way I would be able to go to sleep with my mouth taped up. I think it would be dangerous, uncomfortable and I would panic. It sounds like a fad, just another thing that you should avoid.

"Grab life by the horns and shake the shit out of it"!. This was said to me by an eldery Nun and this has been what I have continually reinforced with my children and I also took note, because before you realise, life comes to and end.

Prior to our last Council election, our area 'Maitland' charged hefty fees for taking rubbish and dropping it at the local tip. There were no roadside pick ups, I paid $50.00 to leave a small mattress at the tip and thought at the time there is going to be lot of mattresses and the like dumped...

What the hell!!

This research is confusing, on one level there is a possibility that side effects will cause serious health problems and now they are researching the possibilty that it will reduce the possibility of developing certain types of cancers. I wish there was some clarity on this??

I think this story is a beat-up, from the photo that was taken of her, she looks like an "Asian Streetworker" and it`s emotive. Would still like to see a picture of the footpath, which has been conveniently been left out.

Yes, I always introduce myself and I like to know the name of the person I`m talking to as well, so I ask them their names. I don`t care if this slows up progress, it`s just manners to do this, and it gives some sort of connection to the person on the other end of the phone. We aren`t robots yet!!

Oh, for goodness sake is this realy a serious situation. She is fighting back, maybe not in language that is palatible for everyone (I would think everyone on SDC has used these words before or at least thought them). She is paying her taxes, insurances, licenses, GST and everything else that`s...

Thank God, there maybe an answer the curse of Alzheimer's. I hope it is successful and I hope that it is subsidised by the National Health System (NHS). It is a cruel and undignified disease and can come on very quickly, it ravages the victim and is so unfair.

Stinking rotten things, too many pests attacking our flora, from my experience with pests that have almost annihilate the garden and trees (little yellow flying bugs) I think they are "yellow-winged locust" they are very resiliant, so cut them down and distroy (burn them) so that they cannot...

He was a rotter, made his famly suffer, his daughter has managed to come out this with dignity and resiliance. She has turned this around by being a "ROLE MODEL" for those who have suffered the abuse he inflicted on her. "Go you Jelena" and even now she is being dignified after his passing.

Hi Fat and fancy, I had my thyroid removed 18 months ago. I`m taking thyroxine tabs but the weight is piling on. I HARDLY EAT ANYTHING NOW AND DON`T KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT, IT SEEMS THAT THE MEDICAL PROFESSION DON`T CARE!

There are so little remaining Heritage sites in Australia, why don`t they leave it alone and get on with housing issues.

I was just sitting here thinking how cold it is inside/raining outside. I`m going to get a hot water bottle in a few minutes and put on some warmer clothes. We have air conditioning, but our last electricity bill was over the top. So will try to conserve/for a while. I think there should be more...

No not interested. The place is already full of cakes, pastries, biscuits, breads, lollies and heaps of junk food.

Also it has the Coles logo on it, great advertising for Coles, they make every post a winner.

This is carrying things too far, I would not go into a shop if there was an Alpaca inside.
