I've had a laminectomy and five spinal fusions, thank you, nursing. 😂 I can only speak for my experience, but I learned many years ago that chronic pain is a very lonely thing. My Nana had a saying: 'Laugh and the world laughs with you. Cry and you cry alone'. Despite shocking pain, I worked...

Please save yourself the time and energy you devote to commenting on my comments. I take absolutely no notice of anything you have to say, and I think it's sad that you find it necessary to respond to people in the way you do. Why are you so angry, and what are you so afraid of that you find it...

I've been in the position of needing to use taxis for a good part of this year. I have a Cabcharge card through my homecare package, which can only be used for taxis, not rideshare services. As I'm a grey haired, overweight woman about to turn 80, sexual harassment isn't my problem. What is...

I think you mean AI, and anyone who vilifies someone for holding an opinion which differs from theirs, is to be pitied.

I witnessed elder abuse during a decades long nursing career. I only worked in hospitals, never nursing homes, but elderly people make up a fair percentage of hospital patients. It's mostly emotional in hospital, telling the elderly patients to hurry up, stop making a mess with meals...

This is my favourite slice. We're having a bakeoff at our retirement village in a couple of weeks. I'm a terrible cook but a pretty good judge of quality food. I'm hoping someone makes this slice.

Coffs Harbour City Council rolled this idea out in 2007. I thought and still think it's a great idea. Admittedly, there are only two of us in the home, but I simply wrapped all food scraps in newspaper when the counter top bin was full, and put them in the the freezer until bin collection day...

The thing is, I think this sense of entitlement knows no boundaries

Another REALLY helpful gift for anyone with a new bub or following surgery, is a home delivered meal service for a week a fortnight or month, depending on your budget. I don't mean Dominos or Maccas. There are some brilliant firms popping up, delivering chef cooked meals delivered to your...

I thought Chinese brides traditionally wear red.

It's funny you know. Police have the will and resources to persecute this young man, but in the case of that vile coward who burnt to death his wife and three kids, the terrified pleas for help feom his wife were ignored. Then, rather than face justice, he committed suicide. Four innocent lives...

Thank you Jennie.

I always understood that Munchausen's Syndrome manifested itself over a period of years, with multiple illnesses. This seems more like a single event in a carefully constructed plan.

A somewhat biased article. For more than a century now, the face of the Western world has changed almost beyond belief in some instances, and not necessarily for the best. The term 'populist' is used in a derogatory, almost sneering manner to imply that those not following the current woke...

The problem is, they make so much noise that the staff can't concentrate and often can't hear.

I can almost guarantee who you WON'T find sleeping on the floor at that hospital. Any of the migrants that have arrived and headed straight for Western Sydney to join the ghetto that is building in that part of Sydney. If they're not treated IMMEDIATELY, they carry on like a performing seal...

What a horrible parent! You don't uninvite a child to a party! I just hope the children who were uninvited at least got a goody bag when the kids went back to school.

Sorry, but I've never heard of either of them.
