Update 22 Oct 2017

It was sore fatiguing rough crappy weekend.  Not much got done on my part.  I took it really easy and reminded myself to be gentle on myself because pushing it would not help.  I finally made the decision to go to the ER today.  The inflammation on my head and face continued to worsen this week and I've felt since I was diagnosed with liver inflammation that I've had a sinus infection.  However, because antibiotics are liver processed and my doctor didn't want to treat it.

Oracle - A person or agency considered to provide wise and insightful counsel Auricle - The external portion of the ear                                 AND A small conical or ear-shaped pouch that projects from each atrium of the heart from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oracle and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auricle I have combined these two words because I hope that some of what I have to say provides wisdom . However, I am also listening .  Everything I say and hear comes from the heart . I also want one place people can look to for health and wellbeing updates and because I have stories to share and although am perfectly happy alone, I do enjoy sharing my stories but even more so when I spend so much time alone.  #fromtheheart
