I use my art, in any media, to often work through life's issues especially physical pain. Most of the time I am a half-full kind of gal - today has been a black pit day. So I have worked through some issues and released the pain through imagery. I will sleep better now and tomorrow will be brighter! Thank God!!

The Greek physician Dioscorides is reported to have used this plant to stop internal bleeding and heal wounds.
Medicinal uses: In western herbalism, bindweed is used as a laxative and a purgative. It has also been used topically to treat spider bites, and taken internally to slow menstruation and stimulate bile flow. In Ayurvedic medicine it is considered a brain tonic that will promote intellect and help with insomnia, confusion, epilepsy, psychoneurosis and neurological disorders. It is also used as a tranquiliser and blood purifier, for excess bleeding and venereal diseases.

Part of Pripyats Hospital 126
Hospital No. 126, received the first victims of the Chernobyl accident, the basement still harbours some of their radioactive clothing. Shortly after the accident, firefighters arrived to try to extinguish the fires. First on the scene was a Chernobyl Power Station firefighter brigade under the command of Lieutenant Volodymyr Pravik, who died on 9 May 1986 of acute radiation sickness. They were not told how dangerously radioactive the smoke and the debris were.
"We didn't know much about radiation. Even those who worked there had no idea. There was no water left in the trucks. Misha filled a cistern and we aimed the water at the top. Then those boys who died went up to the roof – Vashchik, Kolya and others, and Volodya Pravik.... They went up the ladder ... and I never saw them again".
From eyewitness accounts of the firefighters involved before they died, one described his experience of the radiation as "tasting like metal", and feeling a sensation similar to that of pins and needles all over his face.

An Ode To Your Brain
I came across this video on You Tube and have to share it with you. It's called "Ode to the Brain" and I think it is wonderful.
A simple 3 minute and 42 second introduction to Neurology set to music and beautiful images.
your brain stores masses of information. The human brain is a mass of jelly you can hold in your hand and yet it can contemplate the vastness of interstellar space.
The brain encodes what we know in cells called Neurons and there is something like 100 Trillion neural connections
Your brain contains the equivalent of 20 million volumes of information and has been described as a very big place inside a very small space.
Information flows in as energy and explodes into a sensory experience.
No longer at the mercy of the reptile brain we can change ourselves. Think of the possibilities
mp3: symphonyofscience.com "Ode to the Brain" is the ninth episode in the Symphony of Science music video series. Through the powerful words of scientists Carl Sagan, Robert Winston, Vilayanur Ramachandran, Jill Bolte Taylor, Bill Nye, and Oliver Sacks, it covers different aspects the brain including its evolution, neuron networks, folding, and more. The material sampled for this video comes from Carl Sagan's Cosmos, Jill Bolte Taylor's TED Talk, Vilayanur Ramachandran's TED Talk, Bill Nye's Brain episode, BBC's "The Human Body", Oliver Sachs' TED Talk, Discovery Channel's "Human Body: Pushing the Limits", and more.

Neural implants are of great value in neuroscience research as they enable a connection between nervous tissue and the ex vivo environment. Graphene is an ideal material for producing electrodes which could be implanted without encouraging the growth of scar tissue.

Tracy Hitchings spoke on the use of Telehealth in Cornwall at our Neurology Awareness Day on 20 October 2011
car keys.
the ultimate expression of personal freedom in America, the symbol of mobility, ability; an extension of the individual. with a car many things are possible - travel, shopping, hauling, visiting or just plain driving for the pleasure of it. we take cars for granted - if you don't have one you are somehow deficient - and we've largely forgotten how powerful they are.
my wife has a car, a modest vehicle that gets her where she needs to go - work, school, errands, visits with friends and family. it's utility is undeniable. there is a faux-sportiness about it, and the color - blackberry - is quite pleasing to the eye. i know that car backwards and forwards with only one minor detail - i haven't a clue what it is like to drive it.
i have what is termed these days a "seizure disorder", known more widely as "epilepsy", once known as "having fits". my brain does not function correctly, prone to electro-chemical misfiring that renders it chaotic, unusable, dysfunctional. during these neurological meltdowns i may fall to the ground and shake violently, sit in a chair and stare off into space, drooling, or wander panicked around the house sniffing the air for a scent that exists only in my inside-out mind.
the aftermath of these seizures covers a range. at the minimum i am exhausted and confused when i come to or am forced to wake up. my muscles will be sore, my head in the thrall of a serious pounder, speech heavily slurred, thought largely impossible. if i'm really lucky i'll still have the smell of burning wire or insulation in my nose, and the taste of hot metal in my mouth, both by-products of the seizures involving that nonexistent odor. a long period of sleep is required for me to function at even the most rudimentary level.
the permanent effects become more pronounced as the seizures continue. my short term memory is a mess, i'm very forgetful, and while speaking or writing i'll lose words, and i mean lose them so completely i'll have to find another way to speak/write my thought. i'm prone to sudden exhaustion, sleep poorly, and my temper has become short, too short, which is hard on rachel. coupled with my instant forgetfulness, i've started quite a few needless arguments based on the fruits of a faulty memory.
my first seizure occurred when i was 20 years old - not exactly rare, but not that common. as far as i know it was not the direct result of a brain injury, though my left frontal lobe does show two very small areas of scarring. it is not known whether or not this has any relation to the seizures, though the only one caught during eeg monitoring originated from that same lobe. i have been medicated on and off for the last twenty years with no real success. presently, i am at the end of the medication road, taking my current prescription as much to satisfy my neurologist (an excellent doctor - high praise from someone like me) as to control seizures. my longest period without seizures was eighteen months, during which time i was not taking any meds at all. the pace, variety, and severity of the seizures has increased over the years.
the treatments left to me are all invasive, requiring surgical testing to determine my fitness for the procedures themselves. "it's only brain surgery" my doctor cracks in his deadpan way. for the time being i'm unprepared to risk the possible loss of function, which varies wildly depending upon which parts of the brain must be removed. perhaps walking won't be possible, or speech, there may be memory loss, and so forth.
so for the indeterminate future i have to find a way to get along with a brain and body prepared to betray me without a seconds warning. i cannot leave the house by myself. fear of having seizures in public or finding myself appearing stupid because my memory has chosen an inopportune moment to abandon me keeps me at home. so does the sheer danger of walking around by myself and the potentially fatal possibilities of having a seizure while crossing the road or using the stairs, or any of a dozen other scenarios. rachel works and goes to school, so i'm pretty much on my own, essentially house bound.
the immobility may be somewhat alleviated in months to come. i am applying to an organization called Paws With A Cause, a non profit that raises and trains working dogs to aid the disabled and chronically ill. for epileptics there are seizure response dogs which can be trained to respond in a variety of ways depending upon the nature of the seizures the person experiences. this can include staying with me, trying to awaken me, bringing the phone so i can call for help, and monitoring me as i move about the house, or go outside. in the outside world the dog can help me get around, blocking me before i walk into objects, go down stairs, cross the street. once given a command (something i would not be able to do during a seizure) the dog would allow me to proceed. it would also be able to alert strangers to my status, and carry a cell phone pre-programmed with my wife's phone number as well as my meds.
the application process has only begun, and i don't know if i will be approved nor how long it will all take, but this could be my set of keys to the kingdom.
of course, even with the dog at my side, i still won't be able to drive. :)

Dyslexia is a neurological disorder that many do not understand and often dismiss as stupidity or laziness. If you don't believe me, just do a search for dyslexia or dyslexic on Flickr. See what context people put it in.
Best definition I have seen:
"Dyslexia is a neurologically-based, often familial disorder which interferes with the acquisition of language. Varying in the degrees of severity, it is manifested by difficulties in receptive and expressive language, including phonological processing, in reading, writing, spelling, handwriting and sometimes arithmetic. Dyslexia is not the result of lack of motivation, sensory impairment, inadequate instructional or environmental opportunities, but may occur together with these conditions. Although dyslexia is lifelong, individuals with dyslexia frequently respond successfully to timely and appropriate intervention" (Orton Dyslexia Society, 1994).
Parents and teachers, I ask you this question. If punishing or humiliating a child in a wheelchair will not motivate that child to walk, why would punishing or humiliating a child with dyslexia motivate them to read, spell, or excel at mathematics? You want to help a child or adult who is struggling with dyslexia, start by researching the facts.

Rashid Ali, 35, is speaking on his mobile phone while hugging his son Rahil Ali, 7, a boy suffering from a severe neurological disorder, in their home in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India, near the abandoned Union Carbide (now DOW Chemical) industrial complex, site of the infamous 1984 gas tragedy. The poisonous cloud that enveloped Bhopal left everlasting consequences that today continue to consume people's lives. Rahil lives with his father and his mute and deaf grandmother, Bano Bi Ali, 70, in a small, single room his father rents inside a larger house. Rahil's mother left the family three years ago, his father says, because of the hardship and stigma associated to birth defects in India. She took with her Rahil's two siblings, a sister now aged 6 and a brother aged 3, and remarried. In the past, Rashid and his now ex-wife had no choice but to feed the family on contaminated water for a period about six years, in which all three children were born. But while his siblings appear to be healthy to this day, Rahil was diagnosed with torch infection and Lissencephaly after a CT scan was made of his brain soon after his birth. The latter disorder is incurable, and children in similar conditions to Rahil's have a average life expectancy of less than ten years.
