Coping the heatwave here @Melbourne, Australia.

So scorcher, so yummy, so seafood mode on. So, lets cope the heatwave with real food at home. #Melbourne

Since I often have no words or can’t even speak, I tried to capture one aspect of how I feel due to the awful, ongoing effects of experiencing unspeakable trauma—“blocked off,” trapped, isolated, alone, “figuratively disfigured,” stuck in the dark with perhaps some distant light noticeable once in a while, awful.

 

After creating these self portraits I was compelled to find a way to print these photos at home so I could share them with my psychologist at my neurofeedback therapy appointment—I write out and take notes since I’m not able to talk much and felt these photos would supplement my writing and perhaps give a look into how I feel.

 

Once I had processed the photos and decided on a sequence for the images, I noticed they seemed to show me a progression—the first image being completely stuck in a state of panic, shut down, hardly surviving, believing I’m not allowed to and not really being able to even try to look for help or support. And in the progression I came up with, the pictures seemed to show me a story—my own story—of very slowly, over time becoming more courageous, stronger, showing more awareness, more capacity and drive to fight for survival, life, growth and healing.

 

Since most of our belongings are packed up and in storage I don’t have access to much and I was able to find some (very lightweight) sewing thread and a very flimsy needle my daughter had here with her and I used our low budget home printer to create this little collection of photos. Normally I wouldn’t use such low quality items for something like this. I didn’t have much to work with and I was determined to not let this completely stop me from creating. I have since made a few more little photo collections like this and this practice and process has been very helpful in my coping and healing journey. I’m so thankful I gave this a try and for how I find this process to be therapeutic and how it helps me continue to grow.

____________________________

 

As a way to cope with circumstances beyond my control, survive and work to keep fighting for life I decided to try to take at least one photo (or more) each day. I call this “a photo (or more) a day.” Practicing this form of therapeutic photography helps me work to focus on the present moment, gives me something familiar and enjoyable to focus on as I use photography skills that have become like second-nature to me and being able to view the images I capture helps me recall what I was thinking, feeling and noticing at the moment when I created the photos. More of the photos from this series can be seen on my Instagram account

 

I may not always have the energy, time or capacity to share photos from this series—especially with the very challenging circumstances my family and I are experiencing—and will do my best to continue taking a photo (or more) a day even if I’m not able to share.

 

If you would like to support my work and my family, one way you can do so is by ordering my zines:

A rainy day visit to the Holyhead Maritime Museum.

 

The museum is housed in an old lifeboat station that they have had since 1998.

 

The Holyhead Maritime Museum is a maritime museum located in Holyhead, North Wales.

 

Housed in what is claimed to be the oldest Lifeboat station in Wales (built c. 1858), it houses a number of collections.

 

The lifeboat station opened in 1858 and the first lifeboat was unnamed, launching 18 times, saving 128 persons. Replaced by the Prince of Wales, she launched 38 times and rescued 128 persons. In 1875, Member of Parliament Joshua Fielden and his brothers donated the Thomas Fielden, named after their father, which necessitated extending the house. In 1890, a second large boat was obtained, for which the house was extended to enable beach based landing from a horse-drawn carriage.

 

After local maritime exhibitions were held in 1982 and 1983 elsewhere, a trustees group was formed on 24 September 1984. The trustees obtained a nine-year lease on the redundant St Elbods church from the Church in Wales, with the museum opened officially by the Duke of Westminster in March 1986.

 

On expiration of the lease, and after failing to agree a lease within a new development, Stena Line offered the museum a peppercorn rent on the renovated Lifeboat house at Newry Beach. Deciding to improve the building through the construction of new visitor facilities, after a successful bid for funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund and a renegotiation of the lease to 99 years, the museum reopened on its current site in 1998.

  

The museum today tells the maritime history of Holyhead and Anglesey, from earliest days to the modern ferries to Ireland. It features an interactive combination of historical artifacts, models and sensory exhibitions. All of its part-time volunteers have extensive maritime and local knowledge. Accessible to wheelchairs, the museum has its own cafe, the Harbour Front Bistro.

 

The Holyhead at War exhibition is located in an air raid shelter located alongside the Maritime Museum.

What is Michigan Cataract Eye surgery?

 

In a brief explanation, A cataract is a unique condition that affects the clarity of the eye lens, resulting in a clouding effect. This common medical condition dramatically alters the vision of the patient. In the circumstance that it is left untreated, it can potentially lead to blindness in a patient. Typically, Cataracts will lead to poor vision at night, blurry eyesight, glare, double vision, as well as present challenges in distinguishing contrast changes and colors.

 

It is widely known that Cataracts is a common condition for people ranging between the ages of 55 and older. There are no known causes of cataracts, even though aging seems to be a contributing factor. What is known is that hypertension, diabetes, being overweight or obese, corticosteroids in prolonged usage, UV radiation exposure, as well as eye injuries or inflammation that were caused by previous situations. Typically, glasses, as well as improved lighting, can assist in coping with cataracts. Even with that being understood, Michigan cataract eye surgery will eventually be needed in order to eliminate this. Here at the Yaldo Eye Center, Michigan cataract surgery is an effective and safe procedure that shows excellent results.

 

So far in our history, over 10,000 cataract procedures have been successfully performed at the Yaldo Eye center. Michigan cataract eye surgery at the Yaldo Eye Center eliminates the need to come out of pocket for hospital visits and care. Our Michigan laser cataract eye surgery is a procedure that will only take about 30 minutes of your time. Recovery from this form of Michigan eye surgery is typically fast, pain-free, as well as comfortable for each patient. We take great care when it comes to any Michigan eye surgery procedure.

 

If the circumstance requires, the Yaldo Eye Center can set up a transportation method so that you or your loved one can make it to their procedure. Michigan eye surgery financing options are available as well if you inquire about them. Michigan cataract surgery has come a long way since your elders wore omnipresent & thick eyeglasses after Michigan cataract surgery. The implanting of intraocular lenses in Michigan laser cataract surgery is one of the most safe eye procedures known in the world, with a 98% success rate, it is hard to argue.

 

Michigan Glaucoma Eye Surgery Treatment

 

Diagnosis of glaucoma in its early stages can help preserve your vision in the long run. Here at The Yaldo Eye Center, each patient we see with glaucoma is individually treated with the care they deserve

 

Glaucoma: What is it?

 

– Essentially, Glaucoma is fluid pressure that has developed in excess inside a patients eye.

 

– Optic nerve damage, as well as loss of vision and even blindness, can occur if left untreated.

 

– The eye drainage system is not functioning properly which leads to the build-up of pressure caused by fluid. It is widely understood that Glaucoma can happen regardless of any age. For people over the age of 40, Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness.

 

What are the different forms of Glaucoma

 

Glaucoma can occur in several different forms, they are able to be diagnosed by a board-certified Michigan Glaucoma treatment specialist at the Yaldo Eye Center.

 

– Open-angle glaucoma is widely regarded as the most typical type of glaucoma. Open-angle glaucoma develops gradually over time. First, the loss of peripheral (side) vision will occur leading to the loss of central vision. There are typically no early warning symptoms of this open-angle glaucoma. Eye examinations which consist of pressure checks of the eye are critical, especially for those over the age of 40.

 

– Some of the least typically forms of glaucoma are Narrow-angle glaucoma or angle-closure glaucoma. Rapid onset of severe & sharp pain around the eye are common symptoms. The occurrence of nausea or vomiting, blurred vision, halos around lights are also commonly observed. It is essential to medical care as fast as possible to reduce pressure in the eye and alleviate the potential for permanent vision loss.

 

– Eye injury, hemorrhages, certain drugs, inflammations or tumors that restrict drainage channels in the eye can cause secondary glaucoma.

 

Early Glaucoma Detection is Important

 

Glaucoma diagnosis early on is essential to preservation of your vision. If glaucoma is diagnosed and treated in its early stages, it can be controlled. Currently there is no known cure for this medical condition.

 

Testing and Treatment for Glaucoma in Michigan

 

Glaucoma can be detected by a Michigan glaucoma treatment specialist with a simple eye pressure test. To reduce pressure in the eye, eye drops are frequently prescribed by Michigan glaucoma treatment specialists. A Michigan eye surgery specialist at our clinic will treat each glaucoma patient like family and ensure that we determine what works best for you and your glaucoma condition.

 

Dry Eye Treatment

 

At any age dry eye syndrome can happen. Dry eye syndrome is typically found to be more common in women, especially after menopause. Patients who have recently had Michigan laser eye surgery, especially Lasik eye surgery Michigan can commonly experience dry eye syndrome. This is a natural side effect of any Michigan laser eye surgery procedure and will subside with time.

 

Symptoms Include:

 

A gritty sensation

 

Stinging

 

Blurred vision

 

Scratchy or red eyes

 

Sensitivity to light

 

Watery eyes, the body’s attempt to compensate

 

Tips For Dry Eyes:

 

Protect eyes from direct wind or air conditioning

 

Avoid cigarette smoke and similar smoke

 

Rest your eyes from screens and reading

 

Blink as often as possible

 

Dry eye syndrome is essentially a decreased tear production from the small tear glands in a patient. These tear glands produce a lubricating and moisturizing secretion. Around 400 drops of tears are produced by tear glands in the eyes of a normal person each day. Reduction of tear production is common with aging. With that being understood, the average 18 year old will have approximately 60 percent more tear production than the average 65-year old. Dry eyes can also be caused by Vitamin A deficiency, pregnancy, arthritis, environmental changes, contact lenses, and specific medications.

 

Dry Eye Treatment

 

For those suffering from dry eye syndrome, artificial tears are often the first line of defense. There are also anti-inflammatory drops and steroids such as Restasis that can be purchased over to counter to treat dry eyes. A change in your diet to include more omega-3 fatty acids is also recommended for those suffering from dry eye syndrome.

 

Dry eyes are treated in phases at the Yaldo Eye Center. If the first line of defense, being anti-inflammatory drops, do not provide you with the much needed relief, collagen plugs are the next step. Collagen plugs work by plugging the eye tear ducts in order to prevent your eyes natural lubricants from draining rapidly, holding the fluid in your eye, providing tremendous relief to patients. The “grain of rice” sized plug is gently inserted into the tear ducts without any pain or discomfort to the patient. 7-10 days later, the plugs dissolve completely and the effects are gone. If the patients week long experience with plugs was positive, permanent plugs are then inserted.

 

If you are suffering from the effects of dry eye syndrome, especially in the winter months, our board-certified ophthalmologists are here to help you live your life to the fullest. Dry eyes can even appear as a side effect to Lasik eye surgery although dry eyes caused by Lasik often subside within a matter of 1-3 months.

 

What are floaters?

 

Flashes and Floaters are an issue that can greatly irritate your day to day vision. Flashes are small flashing lights or even lightning like streaks in your field of vision than cause you to see what people often refer to as “stars”. This is common when people have recently experienced impact to their head. After a head injury you may see flashes in your field of vision for weeks, or even months depending on the severity of your injury. The medical cause of why flashes occur is when the vitreous rubs or pulls on your retina. As people age, it is common that flashes appear in their vision.

 

What are flashes?

 

Floaters can be described as small specks, circles, dots, or even cobwebs in your sight. These phenomenons are caused by clusters of cells floating in your eyes vitreous fluid. The shadows that these cell clusters portray create the “floaters” in your vision

 

Understanding Eye Flashes and Floaters

 

Dots, specks and sometimes flashes of light in your field of vision are termed flashers or floaters

 

They can be experienced at all ages, often experiences as we age.

 

Generally, “floaters” and “flashes” do not indicate a serious eye problem

 

Commonly, flashes & floaters do not indicate any serious eye issues.

 

The natural process of aging, trauma to the head, and even Type II Diabetes can cause flashes and floaters by causing the fluid in your eye known as vitreous fluid to shrink and tug away from the retina. This can cause clusters of heavier gel to form within the vitreous layer. They may often appear as specks, lines, or even cobwebs in the field of vision. Speak with a Michigan laser eye surgery specialist at our eye surgery clinic today.

 

Symptoms may include:

 

– A sudden onset of severe flashes and floaters

 

Although uncommon, the vitreous tugging away at the retina may tear the retina itself and can even cause bleeding to occur in the eye. In the worst of cases, retinal detachment is also possible. If you experience any symptoms of flashes and floaters it is critical that you speak with a Michigan eye surgery specialist at the Yaldo Eye Center immediately to ensure your situation does not put your vision at risk.

It is currently To Let.

 

Solihull School moved to this site in a house in 1615. It stayed here until 1882 when it moved to School House on the current 50 acre site of Solihull School.

 

The school had existed since 1560 in the Parish Church of St Alphege (a short walk away from here).
