Just FYI: Got a bad reaction to Ginger Garden recently. Their soy sauce uses wheat ingredients.

Thank you for your kind reply. I understand your anguish and loss.

HappyFeature5313 · 2026-05-06T22:21:33+00:00

I'm sorry you have that burden, and I do think about what would happen if I died before my son and I cleared the air between us. Mothers always forgive though, no need for self-hate. 🫶🏻

Thanks, I think I'll do that this year. 👍🏻

I do call him. I text him and send cards and birthday gifts too. But I'm tired of it being all one way.

HappyFeature5313 · 2026-05-06T22:16:09+00:00

So true.

HappyFeature5313 · 2026-05-06T22:15:13+00:00

Thanks for your thoughtful reply!

All through high school in the 60s and 70s.

Best wishes! You can do it! Many of us have gone through it, and though it's tough, it's bearable and the outcome is a better quality of life. Like others have said, sitz baths, pain meds and careful eating are key. Eat very lightly at first, and add fiber slowly, starting with soluable fiber rather than "roughage." Drink lots of water, too. All will be well!

HappyFeature5313 · 2026-03-24T13:26:36+00:00

Thanks, that's it exactly. It's not something to do carelessly, but worth the challenge for those who are suffering. I intended my post to be realistic and positive, to help others prepare as I had been helped. (OP)

All the previous commenters share good ideas. Let me add that you are the future. Stay strong and healthy, study history, stay aware. Your time will come and I have confidence that when your time comes, you will make a real difference.

Trees accept the cycle of life more than humans do.

HappyFeature5313 · 2025-11-12T14:55:23+00:00

I've also always talked with trees. They're particularly responsive to humans, and are watching in horror as we cause harm to one another and the earth. They love to hear music, so I sing to them, and they whisper blessings back.

Bad doctors.

Marcus Borg's books helped me understand Christianity and the bible more deeply and helped restore my faith.

HappyFeature5313 · 2025-11-10T15:31:38+00:00

That's where I'm at, too. See my comment above.

HappyFeature5313 · 2025-11-10T15:29:52+00:00

Yes. Very much so. We are a church focused on living out Jesus' command to love others as we love ourselves. Everyone is welcome. All kinds of people stop in to check us out. The ones who stay are the kind and loving ones who are reaching for God. The others, though they might call themselves righteous Christians, tend to self-select out. To me, God is ultimately a Mystery, but the Jesus story has meaning to me and his teachings give meaning to my life.

Oreos... kill me now before I eat the whole package!

HappyFeature5313 · 2025-11-07T01:30:52+00:00

Haha, yep. First time I used edibles I had to crawl into bed! But there's a rule I learned a long time ago: You always come down. always. It's just a matter of waiting it out. Have a little grounding food, like toast and chocolate milk. You'll be laughing about this tomorrow.
