My mother-in-law died on July 8.  My husband and I had to go out and settle her estate as he is the only living heir.  <br/><br/>Ends up she took part in an experimental drug trial.  It was some kind of new blood thinner.  She was 87 and the doctors convinced her that if she didn't take it she would have a stroke.  She valued her independence and still lived in her own house so she started the 'medicine.'  Within two weeks she was dead.  With her m...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://question-everything.joeuser.com/article/161326</guid><link>http://question-everything.joeuser.com/article/161326</link><pubDate>Sat, 05 Jul 2008 16:10:14 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-05T20:10:14</pubDateParsed><title>Would you participate in a drug trial?</title></item><item><author>Question of the Day</author><comments>http://question-everything.joeuser.com/article/151038</comments><description><![CDATA[Tomorrow, at the college library, Jeannette Walls, author of The Glass Castle will be reading from and discusing her memior.  Unfortunately, this is the last week of classes and I have some major work to get done by Thrusday.  Why in the world would they schedule this now?  Just two more weeks and we'd be home free.  So now I have to make the decision to go or not.  It would probably my only chance to meet her - and I loved her book.  She's an inspiration to me.

I thought it was just a bunch of bull, but I went to see him when my back started acting up again about a year ago.  What I've come to realize is that he's much more than a chiropractor.  He's a chiropractor, nutritionist, healer and a man of God.  It's amazing what he can do.  He's done a lot for me and now recently he treated my dog with huge success.<br/><br/>Over the past few months my dog has been reacting poorly to me returi...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://question-everything.joeuser.com/article/150228</guid><link>http://question-everything.joeuser.com/article/150228</link><pubDate>Sat, 05 Jul 2008 16:10:14 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-05T20:10:14</pubDateParsed><title>Modern Day Shaman</title></item><item><author>Question of the Day</author><comments>http://question-everything.joeuser.com/article/149956</comments><description><![CDATA[Here's the situation:  (note: I really want to say this is a friend, but it's not it's me  )<br/><br/>I have a family member who abused me for a long time while I was growing up.

In my view there have been some 'good' and some 'bad' discussion.   Whatever.  I guess this post comes out of these to some extent.  This here is MY opinion.  When I say 'you' I'm not talking specifically about YOU.  No one has to agree with me on this and I'm not looking for an argument - just expressing myself.  And nope, I'm not perfect, and yep, I'm probably a hypocrite.  I've been known to lie to others and myself.

I have three classes (9cr) so maybe I don't have enough experience yet to fully judge just how good this college is, but so far I'm highly disappointed.  If there was another college within a reasonable driving area I’d check it out.

The title is The Everyday Guide to Prayers.  It has a month long daily guide with two components for each day.  First there's 'What to Pray' and then 'How to pray.'  I've been reading and applying it for the past four or five days.  It's really helped me to understand what I'm 'supposed' to be doing.  Anyway here's what happened today: <br/><br/>While my husband was out doing the grocery s...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://question-everything.joeuser.com/article/148195</guid><link>http://question-everything.joeuser.com/article/148195</link><pubDate>Sat, 05 Jul 2008 16:10:14 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-05T20:10:14</pubDateParsed><title>Answer your phone...it's God Calling</title></item><item><author>Question of the Day</author><comments>http://question-everything.joeuser.com/article/147511</comments><description><![CDATA[I don't normally pressure my husband to do things that he doesn't like/want to do.  He doesn't socialize much and I've pretty well accepted the way he is.  It's so bad that he often retreats to his office as soon as the doorbell rings.  He won't even answer the door for me.  But Wednesday night I really had to lay it on him hard.  I don't think I've ever pressured him more than that night.<br/><br/>My next door neighbor, Sally, is 84 years old.  She has almost 24-7 care in her home.

It was done by full immersion.  The pastor (in waders - which I thought looked pretty comical) covered the man's mouth and nose with a cloth and lowered him backwards down into the water until he was fully submurged and then lifted him back out again.<br/><br/>So, it got me thinking about whether I'm really baptized or not.

They were both 21 when married and started having kids early on in their marriage.  When Dave was 23 he started to show symptoms of schizophrenia.  For three years after this they struggled and even had to be separated because Dave thought that his kids were aliens and he wanted to kill them.  Eventually he killed himself.
