Sue Ryder Neurological Care Centre Dee View Court
Dee View Court provides specialist care to support people with neurological conditions to optimise their health and wellbeing, maximise their independence, and support their social and emotional needs.
There is a huge range of support on offer, including long-term residential care, rehabilitative services to help people to improve or regain their abilities, and day services to enable people to remain independent at home.
Our services
Residential services
Our expert teams provide ongoing care for people with both complex neurological conditions and support people through rehabilitation and end of life care.
We work with each individual to ensure that care is tailored to their specific needs. Activities are specifically designed to reflect and encourage people's interests and skills, and we will do whatever we can to enable people to live a full and satisfying life; whether it's an outing to the shops or someone to read to them, we do all we can to make it happen.
Access to specialist and appropriate therapy is essential for people with neurological conditions
Our teams of physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and speech and language therapists are a vital part of the personalised care we provide.
Supporting people to maintain or build strength, relearn skills or find new ways of doing things depending on their own goals and ambitions.
Supported living
Our supported living services enable people to live as independently as possible in a home that has been purpose-built or specifically adapted to their needs with a team of professional carers on hand.
Each person holds their own tenancy and has full control over the type and level of care they receive from us, from 24/7 support to less intensive care.
As well as providing a comfortable place to live and socialise with other residents, there is plenty of entertaining space for when friends and family come to visit.
5Rs programme
Our 5Rs programme is a free ten-week course providing information and support for adults with multiple sclerosis and recovering from stroke in the local Aberdeen community.
Over ten weeks, a group of ten people can benefit from a person-centred programme that is designed to give them practical help and assistance and meet their specific needs.
Each week different activities are offered based around five basic principles: relax, rebuild, re-energise, reintegrate and regenerate. The programme is run by a trained facilitator and two assistants.
What we offer
Each week, different activities are offered based around five basic principles:
Relax – We offer therapies and the opportunity to socialise with other people living with your condition in a small, informal group.
Rebuild – The programme is structured to help you build your confidence and discover new skills and abilities.
Re-energise – Our range of activities and therapies aim to boost your energy levels and motivation.
Reintegrate – Attending the 5Rs gives you the chance to make new friends and raise the group's awareness of opportunities to become more involved in the community, work and leisure.
Regenerate – The course is not just about physical needs; we also aim to help you feel emotionally and spiritually renewed.
Benefits of the 5Rs
- Peer support and learning: share information, concerns, positive experiences and ways of managing your neurological condition. Try out a range of therapies or new activities.
- Meet new people in a friendly, informal and supportive setting.
- Access professional staff for information, care and support.
- Access information about a range of other services that are available.
Examples of the therapies we offer are: reflexology, aromatherapy, art and music therapies, gentle exercise and yoga.
Get more information about 5Rs
The programme runs on Tuesdays from 10am to 3pm over a period of 10 weeks at Sue Ryder Dee View Court.
If you would like to join the next course or have further questions, please get in touch by email firstname.lastname@example.com or call 01224 245 920 to ask for the 5Rs facilitator.
Self-Management Service
Dee View Court operates a free Self-Management Service for people with neurological conditions who live in their own homes in the city of Aberdeen.
The service is led by a clinical nurse specialist and a team of support workers.
We understand that self-management means people are better informed about their condition, better prepared for everyday challenges and better supported when they need to be.
Support for you
The service has been designed to offer support within your home, over the phone and in the community, depending on what you wish to achieve.
We offer short-term support including practical tools, techniques and information to help you take a proactive role in managing your own health and wellbeing.
We offer:
- support to better understand your condition
- companionship, conversation and emotional support
- support to maintain your hobbies and interests or to try new activities
- help to reconnect with friends and your community or to build new relationships
- information on other useful services
- support if you have been in hospital.
Support for your carer
To fully support you, we know your carers need to be supported as well. That's why the service also provides opportunities for carers to take a break and receive emotional support.
What service users say
Carol had a stroke in 2016 and had lost her confidence to go outdoors. After support, Carol said:
"I have my sense of worth back and my level of confidence has zoomed up. Sue Ryder coming into my life has been the very best."
Maggie suffered three strokes and her confidence was shattered. Having always been a 'people person' she started avoiding contact with friends and family, and was socially isolated at home. Following support, Maggie's outlook has improved dramatically:
"I look forward to going to the games night and I am so much more like myself."
Joan has had MS for over 20 years, and was only getting out of the house to attend medical appointments. Her mood was low, she didn't enjoy food anymore and didn't feel confident in herself. Since receiving support Joan now goes shopping for herself and her appetite and mood have both improved considerably! Joan says:
"I feel free now and I look forward to eating again."
Who provides this service?
This free service is supported by the Transforming Self-Management in Scotland Fund, which is provided by the Scottish Government and administered by Health and Social Care Alliance Scotland.

Referrals can be made by anyone including yourself, relatives, carers, doctors or other caring professionals.

Pepto Bismol Side Effects In Dogs
When a dog is constipated or suffering from diarrhea, owners may be surprised to find that one option for calming the symptoms is one of the most commonly used solutions for humans as well: Pepto-Bismol, also known as bismuth subsalicylate.
Pepto-Bismol side effects in dogs are generally mild. Owners may notice a discoloration of the tongue and of the stool. During treatment Pepto-Bismol for dogs may turn the stool a greenish color, or gray or black, but this should return to normal after the end of treatment.
Also, it should be noted that in humans Pepto-Bismol side effects can include beneficially suppressing the bacteria that can cause stomach ulcers and inflammation. This, however, has not been proven for canines.
Because Pepto-Bismol ingredients includes subsalicylate, the use of Pepto-Bismol for cats should be with extreme caution and only under the direction of a veterinarian. Their systems have difficuly processing this compound, and it could be toxic. In dogs, subsalicylate can also be cause for concern, so be sure that your dog does not have an allergy to aspirin to avoid harmful Pepto-Bismol side effects.
Of course, any administration of medication for pets should only be done under direction of a veterinarian. No over the counter medicine should be given without first attempting to uncover the underlying cause of a sick dog vomiting, or suffering other gastrointestinal symptoms. In this way, you can better avoid Pepto-Bismol side effects, or only masking the symptoms of a much larger problem altogether.

Oil surged again Wednesday on weak fuel inventories and an even weaker dollar. How can you chart the course for black gold?
My thesis is that oil is stuck at $100, says Oppenheimer Chief Market Technician Carter Worth on CNBC's "Closing Bell". But I don't think we're running away on the upside.
How are you playing it?
I recommend staying away from refiners such as Sunoco (SUN), Valero (VLO) and Tesoro (TSO). Inventories are at 15-year highs and refiners are a margin story.
If you want to be in energy, I like Apache (APA) and Devon (DVN). These companies will search for oil, no matter what happens with the economy, he counsels.
The bottom line in oil?

Workers' compensation is a system established to help provide fair reparation and payment to employees who have sustained work-related injuries. The variety of injuries meant to be covered under this system is broad, although not without some limitations. In addition, the treatments covered by the workers' compensation system range from physical therapy to acupuncture to prescription medication. The type of treatment that is covered will depend heavily on what is prescribed by the employee's treatment physician. In some cases, a physician may determine an employee's injury requires medical equipment to treat.
There are important differences between medical equipment and medical supplies. The workers' compensation system has borrowed the definition of "durable medical equipment" from the Medicare system. Durable medical equipment means medical equipment that is reusable, and necessary for treatment of the employee in his or her home. Note that this means certain items such as latex gloves or hypodermic needles would not qualify as DME, as they are not reusable. Moreover, an electric scooter that the employee never uses in the home, but rather simply uses to get around the local grocery store also probably would not qualify. Note that not all Medicare rules have been adopted by California in this area.
Under the workers' compensation system, a physician may bill for and be reimbursed for dispensing medically necessary durable medical equipment. The rate to be billed and reimbursed is capped at a particular rate established by California Labor Code 5307.1. However, there is an exception for this if the DME device is a "dangerous device." A "dangerous device" is defined by California statute, and typically will be a piece of equipment that can only be dispensed with a prescription from a physician licensed in that particular field. For dangerous devices, there is a different fee schedule or formula established by statute.
Employers should be wary, as unscrupulous individuals have exploited the provisions for DME billing. For example, in 2014, several men were charged with many felony counts of conspiracy and submitting fraudulent claims after renting out DME in the workers' compensation system, double billing and billing far above the actual value. The men faced over fifty years in prison.
Durable medical equipment is covered under workers' compensation, but you should consult an attorney to make sure you understand the obligations of your business. Call us today at (714) 516-8188 if you have questions regarding Durable Medical Equipment.

A puppy that collapsed after ingesting some sort of opioid in Massachusetts has survived after being given an overdose reversal drug more often administered to humans.
Zoey is a 3-month-old yellow lab who lives with Peter Thibault and his family in Andover.
The puppy loves to play and chew on anything in sight.
In-depth news coverage of the Greater Boston Area.
"Just about anything that's not nailed down she'll try to eat," said Thibault.
Friday morning the pair went out for their usual morning walk. Moments after leaving the house, Zoey found a cigarette box near a tree and started shewing on it.
"There wasn't any cigarettes or tobacco in it," said Thibault. "I put it on the ground and was going to get it on our way back from our walk."
Unfortunately they didn't finish their walk because 20 feet further Zoey collapsed.
"Her eyes started to roll back in the back of her head and her tongue started to hang out."
After chewing on the cigarette box Thibault rushed her to Bulger Veterinary Hospital.
"Very profound sudden lethargy, low heart rate, low respiratory rate," said Krista Vernaleken, the medical director for Bulger.
All of those symptoms are red flags that Zoey had ingested something toxic inside the cigarette box.
"That particular doctor had familiarity with opioid toxicity so she gave a trial of naloxone," said Vernaleken.
Zoey was given two doses and showed signs of quick improvement.
"We knew at that point that it was an opioid," Vernaleken said.
Zoey is now happy and healthy.
Thibault said he has a different outlook on the opioid crisis in a different way.
"You hear about the opioid epidemic but this was a real eye-opener," he said.
Thibault is most concerned for his kids and other children.
Zoey found the cigarette box at a school bus stop, just steps away from the family's home.

An interesting interview with Canonical chief executive Mark Shuttleworth. He talks about choosing Ubuntu name and in a future undominated by Windows, how Ubuntu hopes to be the provider of a service ecosystem for free software. From the page:
Going to space and seeing the Earth from a distance makes it very clear just how interdependent we are. So I wanted to do something that was really global; free software is a phenomenon that is truly global.

I read that eating grapefruit can increase your breast cancer risk. Is this true?
Weirdly, yes. Grapefruit may elevate the odds of developing breast cancer, at least in postmenopausal women. A study of 50,000 older women in the British Journal of Cancer found that those who ate half a grapefruit every other day were 30 percent more likely to develop breast cancer than women who never ate it. Compounds in the fruit block the production of an enzyme that helps your body metabolize estrogen; the more estrogen in your system, the higher your risk. More research needs to be done, but if you're concerned, switch to oranges, which don't have the same hormonal effect.

Ever wonder why some teachers feel strongly about using technology with their students? Ever wonder why what is so popular today is "so yesterday" tomorrow? There's a huge shift going on in today's world. It's not the world our parents grew up in and it's not even the world it was 5 years ago. Preparing our students to live in tomorrow's world today is everyone's responsibility. The video below is 4:46 long. I recommend that everyone who has children, teaches children or lives in today's world watches it.
Original presentation of "Did You Know" by Karl Fisch, remixed by Scott Mcloed. More information and sources can be found here.
Hi Mrs. Kolbert and class,
I really can appreciate your most recent blog about technology and how critical it is to be using in schools and allowing students access to these tools. I've seen the 2008 version of this video, but didn't realize there was a newer version out. I think I will also upload it to our class blog and have a discussion on it. I remember back to the days when I was in school and it was in gr.9 when I learned how to type on a typewriter! I'm not that old, either! It's really amazing how much technology is pushing us ahead and also of our dependence on it!
Hi! My teacher just recently used the same video on the same topic. I thought that the video was really good. Did you? I am from Bangkok,Thailand.
I really like the video! It's true, the world is more high-tech. I also like the music!!
Alec in Mrs.kolbert's class
It was REALLY cool to see all the cool gizmos and gadgets in the world!! It made me giggle when they said 2,000,000 TV's are in people's bathroom!!! :0
i think that there are so many cool electrict things in the world that make our world so interesting:)
Great video lee. It coincides directly with a lot of the things i'm taking in Dean's ECMP 355 class.
I think that using technology in moderation is great, but don't become ADDICTED! Things like cell phones,computers,&TV can improve our lives,but then people may depend on them SOOOOO much that nothing else interests them!
I agree it is crazy how much technology is changing each and every day. Julia S. I agree it is great as long as people don't become addicted. It is very hard because cell phones, and computers are a part of everyday life now, and it's true that nothing else interests them!
wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cool vidieo
i think using technology is great but you dont want to use to much because when it needs a battery it might waste alot of energey if you use to much and its a great video you posted

The transformation of two historic buildings - Newton and Arkwright
The most significant estate development in our history has been the ambitious regeneration of the Newton and Arkwright buildings, which will deliver a truly inspirational learning environment for generations of students.
A stunning piece of contemporary architecture was inserted between the two Grade II* listed buildings, Newton and Arkwright. The centrepiece is an impressive, glazed centre court with a walk-round balcony, leading from the new entrance conveniently situated by the NTU tram stop.
All the essential student services are located there, as well as cafes and deli-bars and lots of space where students can meet and mingle and discuss course work and more.
In the Newton building, students have an abundance of teaching space, a range of lecture theatres of different sizes and masses of space for social learning.
The quadrangle provides a quiet space for thinking and developing creative ideas, and right next to it is the building where silicone was invented by Dr Frederick Kipping in the late 19th century!

Another Plane Crash
Steven Tur
"His nose was up, but he was coming down. When I saw that, I said, 'he's in trouble.'" Bill Fulco, crash witness, 1989
"The engine was still running, but just as I lost sight of the plane, there was a deadly silence. So I knew it was going down." Sonya, Beebe, crash witness, 1989
I've been coming to you sporadically from LA this week. I'm here helping my sister Judy organize her husband Bob's memorial service. On Monday I shared some details of his fatal plane crash last month.
Those who fly small planes, especially vintage ones, are at high risk for accidental death. No matter how careful their planning and maintenance, things can go wrong with older planes.
Bob and Judy, both licensed pilots and members of a group of vintage airplane enthusiasts survived another crash together in 1989. The irony isn't lost on any of us these days.
They took off from Santa Monica airport on a beautiful Labor Day weekend, in a friend's World War II P-51 Mustang. It was a two-seater, one behind the other. My brother-in-law was at the controls, my sister co-piloting in the rear seat.
Her then 28-year-old son watched from the ground as he'd done countless times, a little annoyed that day because he'd wanted to go in her place.
They lifted off, began to climb into the sky and suddenly, like a bolt out of the blue, an actual bolt flew off the engine and into the propeller. The plane spiraled out of control as my brother-in-law fought valiantly to keep it aloft.
Horribly, gravity prevailed. The plane rolled, rolled again, and crashed upside down on top of a house near the airport.
Dozens of airport regulars rushed to the scene, including my nephew. An airport fire truck arrived first. And stopped the rescuers in their tracks, making them stand helplessly by as the crippled plane lay smoking, belly up on top of the house. Why? A large, deadly spill of gasoline was pooling around the perimeter.
The danger was enormous, the risk huge. The house, the plane and it's injured--dead?--occupants and passengers were surrounded by a virtual moat of petrol that could explode into a fireball at any moment.
As often happens in such situations, ordinary heroes rise to the occasion. A fellow pilot--a Vietnam veteran--waded through the foam being sprayed by the fire engine and climbed onto the plane. My nephew, galvanized by fear and desperation, followed. Together they managed to pry open part of the canopy.
Can any of us imagine watching our mother's plane crash, then crawling onto the burning plane to attempt a rescue, hoping against hope it's not instead a grisly recovery? They say mothers will do anything to save their children. I'm here to tell you, children can do the same for their mothers.
Miraculously, both my sister and her husband--though badly bruised and battered--were alive.
The two elderly sisters who lived in the house were thankfully, blessedly, not at home -- they were out walking their dog.
Seventeen years have passed. Memory fades. Wounds heal. Life goes on. Until it doesn't.
More irony ... back then I flew out to LA from Philly to help. That's when I met Bob for the first time. A story I'll be telling at his memorial service tomorrow. Because this time, I flew out to say good bye.

Frackin' Tom West just happened to be walking by a well-publicized anti- fracking rally. And he just happened to get himself quoted in the press. Here is Frackin' Shale $hill Tom at his show-boating lobbyist best: The protest did, however, attract a natural gas industry lawyer and lobbyist Tom West, who became involved in a civil debate with the protest organizers after noticing them on the street. (as if he was just passing by ) "We killed and mutilated many Americans over oil," West said. … [Read more...] about Last refuge of Tom West
What the Frack Happens Now New York ?
We won that battle. So relax. Take the rest of the week off. There will be plenty to do later on. Mean time, there will be no fracking "counter-attack" by the frackers. No big lawsuits. No Congressional action. Just some frak flaks whining and mouthing off. Here's why: It's simply not worth it to the frackers to take any more of a public caning. And they admit it publicly. Which is why there won't be any meaningful lawsuits or legislation to challenge this. They not only lost, but they were … [Read more...] about What the Frack Happens Now New York ?
The Cheney Connection: Fracking, The Halliburton Loophole and Torture
What does fracking, the Halliburton Loophole, the BP Gulf oil spill, and torture of prisoners all have in common ? Dick "Chickenhawk" Cheney. Cheney was chairman of Halliburton after it invented fracking, then he approved torture while Vice President, then made fracking exempt from federal oversight before he left office - along with his useful stooge, George W Bush, the former Yale coke-head. If this sick frack sounds like a one man horror show, he is. Key Takeaway from Torture Report: Dick … [Read more...] about The Cheney Connection: Fracking, The Halliburton Loophole and Torture

Every scar tells a story, a story that says, I survived!
We have decided to keep China. So many, like me, have seen past her disability and seen the greatness and opportunity in this tiny soul. I want her to be a light to help people look for the abilities and gifts in others. None of us are perfect in the human eye, but all of us are perfect in God's eyes!
China will travel with us all over the country meeting people and touching lives. I want her to be the one that plants the seed in a child's mind that they or their friend who may be labeled with a 'disability or challenge' doesn't have to stay in the shadows, hidden away. They can rise and be fabulous, in full view, stronger for overcoming what was seen as weakness ready to change the world!
This puppy will change the world for dogs, humans and all that meet her!
2/27/15 I have the best update yet! China looked up at me just now when I walked into my bedroom! She still sleeps right next to me and every time I walk into the room or look over at her, she is just lying there barely breathing, until just now! She has the cutest tiny face and fat, little body! I'm just so in love with her!
She weighs 12.5oz today!!!!
The vet asked me at our last visit what I was planning to 'do' with her. It struck me as odd, does everyone and everything have to 'do' something? Can't 'being' just be enough sometimes? I guess she has opened my eyes to the fact not everyone sees life the same. Who has more value; the high paid corporate attorney, the school teacher or the fireman? Shouldn't we all have value for each of our gifts? I will vow to open my eyes and make more effort to truly 'see' those around me, and celebrate them and what makes them special and unique. Tiny China has great things to do, they may not involve showing, making babies or getting sold, but she will do valuable things in her life.
2/28/15 China has really perked up since she stopped her meds! She has started trying to push up and scoot around! We are thrilled!
3/1/15 Happy 4 weeks Birthday China! To celebrate reaching her 4 week mark, China started eating solid food today and loved it! She dove right in and gobbled down even more than I expected! After her first meal I saw her body start to shake. It startled me at first, then I realized it must be her body's response to the sugar spike of the food. It stopped and she fell asleep. On to eating like a big girl!
3/7/15 China will be 5 weeks old tomorrow! She has far exceeded all expectations so far! She is now 15.9oz, I think she will make 1lb by tomorrow eating the way she is going now. From starting at 4.3oz and losing down to 4oz, we are thrilled to see every gain. Making it to 1lb is a huge accomplishment and we look forward to seeing how big she actually gets.
Her movement is vastly improved and she can now push up and slowly get around her box. It still takes great effort and her little tail strains straight up to help her find her balance. Her 'brother', Veronica's boy, has been tremendously helpful in her effort to stand and walk. He moves around her knowingly, giving her a nudge from behind or support on the side to help her make her next step. She still falls quite often, but she is moving forward too. This morning I saw her make her first hops on her single front leg to 'walk'. It was amazing and brought me to tears. That front leg hop will be the way she walks for her life, it's amazing to see the first steps! When she got tired her brother wobbled over and he engaged her in a wrestling match. It was so cute. They were tumbling and growling like 'real puppies'! My heart is full!
I must say here without Veronica's single boy, this would be vastly different. He has been such a blessing for China, she desperately needed a sibling to keep her warm, to support her and to challenge her. He is her example and her rock. They love each other and each has been a gift to the other. I never realized how important multiple puppies in the litter were to the development of each puppy. I can see how sibling rivalry stimulates the puppies to nurse, to eat solid food, to drink water, to walk, to explore and to play. They need each other to grow, develop and reach the milestones they need to reach to progress. Who knew only 1 out of 5 puppies conceived by Veronica and 1 out of 2 puppies conceived by Ember would survive and become best friends and necessary littermates. I was so distraught throughout the early part of this journey, I failed to see God had a perfect Plan here. He had control, I just needed to have Faith.
I told China I needed some pics bc people were asking about her. She took these 'selfies' after breakfast, as she said, "for her Fans". She said she was channeling her inner Kim K. I tried to explain to her gently that her bottom would never be big enough to qualify as a 'Kardashian' but that little stinker said, "You don't put limits on me!" I suppose I can't.
She has graduated to going outside with the other dogs during the day and LOVES it! She is as fast as anyone else and twice as tough! She loves running and barking, chasing her young friends around the yard. Her huge heart a tremendous spirit warm the soul of everyone who visits. At this point we all forget she had challenges and only see a vibrant little puppy bounding around getting into mischief.
2/13/15 This puppy is a true miracle! I tried to switch her to a bottle, but she was nursing too hard and kept choking. I then used our mom Maisey (who has tons of extra milk) to see if she could nurse the real thing. It worked! That night I rotated moms to see who was the best at lying still for the feedings. Veronica was the best and she has now adopted the sweet baby as her own! Her wound has filled in enough, that Veronica doesn't notice the little bone. Actually both this puppy and Veronica's lonely boy have vastly improved with a 'sibling'. Both are gaining weight well! It looks like a tiny girl and V's tiny boy are going to make it! Unbelievable blessing if I have ever seen one!
2/8/15 Things have gotten worse and better. Yesterday midday the puppy was fading and Ember was getting upset. Ember was trying to get her to perk up and she noticed the little piece of bone coming out of her wound. Fortunately I was sitting right next to her when she decided the bone had to go. The baby screamed and I whisked her away.
I called my vet to see if at 6 days she was old enough to safely start oral antibiotics. He agreed she had no hope without them so we started them yesterday.
Now, after 24hrs of care, the tiny girl seems a little stronger. She is still only 4.1oz, but I have faith she will gain on my feeding schedule. I now have her in her own box with a heating pad and clean towel. I tube-feed her every 2-3 hrs around the clock. I hope as she gets bigger and gains strength, she will be able to transition to a bottle. I'm doing 100% of her feeding, pottying and care. She gets oral antibiotics twice a day and topical antibiotics with every feeding. I stimulate her to potty every hour (tiny puppies won't go potty unless stimulated by mom). She gets a boost of Nutrical at each feeding too. Your prayers a greatly needed. I am doing my best for this tiny girl.
2/6/15 The baby is still hanging on. She has not gained weight, but she is nursing. The prayers are working! Please keep them coming!
Raising puppies is not for the faint of heart. God has a Plan for this litter. We are grateful to learn Ember can cycle, get pregnant and free-whelp. Her 4oz girl is substantially bigger than the little boy that passed. With extra supervision, I see she can truly produce the 'teacups' many of you desire. We will try again with her.
The good news is she shows no sign of infection, swelling or redness at the site at this time. The vet sent us home with pain meds for when it hurts. We will do antibiotics if infection comes, and we will do our best to get her to August before needing surgery. She explained the torn, ragged bone didn't know it was wrong to grow. When she goes in, she will cut the bone back to the shoulder and round the bottom. She will then pullup lots of skin to make a pad under the bone. This should solve today's problem and any issue in the future. She said if it were life threatening now, we would do it now. But now the risk of death from anethesia is high, and with no infection, this issue is painful, not dangerous. We are doing our best to address her needs as quickly as possible. This is not a money issue, it is a desire to wait for the best time for China.
China continues to make friends and inspire people every day! Even our friends Mary and Bill Rausch came over and took pics with their children holding China. She truly feels she is a celebrity everyone is here to meet her and hops out to greet everyone! I suppose on our little farm she is pretty famous. She has worked very hard to live, I suppose we can give her that... ;)
We did have a slight scare early last week. China had started to scream when picked up and squeezed close to her injury. A tiny tip of the bone has grown and started to poke through the skin. Of course I panicked and rushed her straight to the vet. As Dr Somersett examined China, there were concerns. The major concern is her size, she is still only 3lbs at 4 months. She is really too tiny to undergo the anethesia well. She is hoping she can wait until August and have her amputation revised and her spay done at the same time. She is hoping she will be closer to 5lbs by then. It is sooner than we hoped to spay her, but it sounds as if her size makes anethesia dangerous. I suppose we will err on the side of doing it early and hoping she doesn't get cancer later in life.
Tiny China was delivered on 2/1/15.
Her parents are Ember and Bullet.
Her start in the world was rough, but her story will inspire you!
Last Updated 10/2/15
2/20/15 I have good news and bad news. The good news is China's eyes have opened; bad news is she has developed diarrhea.
This diarrhea appeared as a wet hind leg this morning. I freaked, knowing that water-diarrhea is almost always a death sentence. I checked the other puppies and there was another with it too. He was bigger, so I decided to take him and his littermates to the vet immediately. I did not want to risk stressing tiny China with the drive to the vet and the wait once we got there. The vet said that the puppies had picked up a bacteria from the dirt on mom's feet from mom going out in our front yard to potty. How do we keep bacteria off moms' feet? We cannot drip them in bleach each time they need to potty!
The vet sent me home with meds and we started treating China and all the puppies we have in the house. With tears in our eyes and heavy hearts Tommy and I started treating the babies knowing their lives depended on it. Fingers crossed and hearts heavy to see what lies ahead tomorrow.
2/21/15 Who knew how such a tiny being could make such impact on so many? Tommy and I went to a lovely banquet for the Palmetto Paint Horse Club and all night people asked me about China. How was she? Could they adopt her? They knew the perfect person/family for her. My heart was full seeing that she had opened eyes and inspired people to consider the disabled babies out there. I didn't have the heart to say her life is in jeopardy right now. Let's hope the sun comes up and sees her better tomorrow after 3 doses of strong meds.
2/22/15 China and the others have improved greatly! Life is such a roller coaster, I do my best to embrace the good days and look forward through the bad ones.
China is fat as a tick, super round, weighing 9 oz today! She hates the meds, but we are grateful they are keeping her alive! I'm so in love with her, I pray we can get her through this tough period. Her stump/leg is healing well. The vet was super concerned about the possibility of the diarrhea getting into her open wound. That could be deadly, quickly deadly.
I am grateful beyond words that she is dry this evening and the meds seem to be working! Please pray she continues to improve and I can introduce you all to her and her life! If I can get Tommy to hold her, I will post new pics!
2/23/15 Tommy and I took China to the vet today to see if we could now stop the antibiotics. Her poop is still loose, but not the deadly water diarrhea.
Dr Faulkner examined her and was encouraged by her progress. He felt her 'leg' has healed well and she can come off all the meds. I am elated and petrified all at once. Will taking her off the meds allow her to flourish, or cause her to crash? He could give me no guarantees. Only thing he could honestly say was either taking her off the meds would do one or the other, fast.
Update: 2/1/15 Ember delivered today. She became overzealous when I stepped out of the room. She now has 1 puppy with 3 legs we are working to stabilize. First time moms are inexperienced and unpredictable. Some days are better than others. Please pray for our little sable girl.
2/2/15 We have bad news and good news; the bad news is we had to put one tiny puppy to sleep, the good news is the tiny sable girl (4oz) with three legs is doing well and mom has settled. The vet has said we need to wait and see. If we start antibiotics for the open wound where her leg was, her digestive system will be wrecked and she will likely pass right away; if we don't do antibiotics, she may get an infection and pass later. He says if she can live 4 weeks, antibiotics are safer at that point. His recommendation is to keep mom calm and the birthing suite super clean.
3/23/15 China made her first real public debut this weekend, she went with us to her first horseshow in Clemson, SC. We packed her, her 'brother' and her 'adopted mom' in their Puppy Apartment in our camper. When I wasn't riding and showing, I carried her around the show to meet everyone. She loved the trip and everyone went crazy over her! I never set her on the ground (she only has 1 set of vaccines so far), but from my arms she got loads of love! She will make a perfect travel companion for us!
With Dad at the show. My right ear hasn't unfolded all the way yet.
10/2/15 I know this update is long overdue, I'm so sorry! We had a crazy busy summer and China was in the middle of all the action! Our vet wanted to do her leg revision in August, but she was still not big enough. The vet required she be 5lbs before putting her under anesthesia.
She finally made it and actually weighed in at right at 6lbs at her appointment yesterday. The vet opened her leg, the incision is nearly 6" long, cut her remaining humerus off, rounded the bottom, pulled the muscle and extra skin together to make a 'pad' cushion and closed her up.She then spayed her. China woke up fast and was ready to see us when we arrived (anxious and early). She has a great prognosis for a long, happy, active life!
With her extreme shave job for the surgery, she looks like a naked chicken right now. We were a bit shocked at how much of her needed to be shaved. She had just really started getting her adult coat. Oh well, her health is #1, hair will grow back. We are thrilled she has gotten over this huge hurdle and is ready for the rest of her life!
China has also asked me to thank everyone who has come to visit and meet her! She loves visitors! She can't wait to meet You!
3/28/15 China has really matured and gained confidence. She can now hop and jump with ease. She tears around the living room playing with her toys and her 'brother'. 'Mom' Vanessa is going crazy trying to keep up with her. She has started really playing with both puppies. It's the cutest thing ever! Every time I try to video them, Vanessa stops. Hopefully I can get some footage for you very soon.
My ears have both unfolded and aren't they the cutest!
3/13/15 Baby China is almost 6 weeks old and she is feeling frisky! She is doing great and loves to bounce and play with her 'brother'. I moved them out of their birthing suite today (I usually move them between 2 and 3 weeks) into our master bathroom in their Potty Training Puppy Apartment. It was adorable bs both puppies were immediately in love with their new squishy bed in their bedroom. I was concerned whether they would potty on the new bed, but they didn't disappoint. As I watched them enjoying their new digs, both puppies got up, rolled out of their bed into the bathroom portion of the apartment, tinkled, ate a few bites, had a few sips of water and hopped back into bed to wrestle and tumble together in pillowy comfort! I believe China approves!
I dewormed her today and she weighs 19oz. I think she will make it to 20oz for her 6 weeks birthday. We have never had such a tiny girl. I'm now wondering how big she will get? Mom Ember is really tiny and she was never compromised, I wonder what she will do with all the challenges she has faced? Everything has grown on her evenly except her tail. Poor little China has a freakishy short tail at this point. I wonder if it will catch up, or if it will stay extra small? Either way she is perfect. We love her and she loves us! She is so funny when I walk in to check on her, she hops up and starts wriggling around for attention. When I open her door she reaches up for rubs, then rolls over so I can rub her belly. She LOVES belly rubs and will lie back as long as I will scratch. She also adores being carried around the house. She wants to see everything! She gives kisses and I LOVE that!
3/17/15 China is a wild woman! She is 6 weeks old and a ball of wild a crazy fun! I took a video to share with you today!
4/2/15 China continues to improve and bond with us. Now if she is left alone in the bathroom in her Puppy Apartment (with her 'brother') and she hears either Tommy or me in the house, she starts to howl and go crazy wanting to be out with us. When her door is opened, she comes jumping out and stays right on our heels everywhere we go in the house. If we sit down, she wants to be held, kissed and rubbed, or she chews our toes with her needle sharp teeth.
We thought we had foiled her by picking our feet up where she couldn't reach them. After throwing a bit of a fit she races around looking for anything she can sink her teeth into. Shoes and cords are her favorite things to chew, so today she got a 'playpen' to keep her safe, but also with the family in the living room. She isn't thrilled about being confined, but she likes it better than being stuck in the bathroom. She enjoys watching tv and taunting the other dogs through the bars. It is best that she is contained, I was worried about her getting shocked after she ruined an Iphone cord in just a few loose seconds.
She is still too tiny to go outside, I don't think she is 2lbs even now. She is using puppy pads and newspaper until she gets big enough to tolerate the initial shock of her body when the bacteria and germs from dirt hits her system. Tommy says he doesn't think her three white feet will ever hit the ground, but I know I will get her outside soon, very soon, once she gets bigger.
6/3/15 Lots has happened with tiny China since my last post! If you are not already my friend on Facebook, friend me, to follow her story.

@Ace-Connell is this piece about Ronnie's hair? I ask because it appears you spent great care in rendering the hair and have wonderful textures, but the face has very little texture. I think his face should be rendered with the same care and his face and eyes should have as great a texture as the hair. He lived a hard life and his face should reflect it. Great start. Careful with using black in shadows as it tends to flatten images and provides no information on the quality of the light. Push the shadows cooler if the light source is warm and more warm if the light source is cool such as northern sky light.

RE: Ronnie Wood Caricature Painting
RE: In the Music Shop
@Renduin I like the feel of the lighting in this piece. What bothers me about the figure is the person has the head of a boy, but the shoulders of a man. Notice the abrupt angle from the neck to the shoulders. Try making this a more sweeping line so the shoulders are less bulky. Also the neck goes straight down from the head to the shoulders. This is a very unnatural posture. Most of the time the neck projects forward. Just observe people in profile. You will almost never see the neck vertical. All that said, you can get this image to feel right and gorgeously rendered, but it will not change the fact that it does not tell the story well. What does this boy see that has him so excited. I think you need to show what has him so excited. As far as the blurred banjo goes, I understand why you did it, but it does not fit the way you rendered the rest of the image. If your boy is the focal point everything that is the same distance behind the boy as the banjo is in front should be blurred as well. Another way to pull focus is to reduce the contrast and details of the objects. You did to with the violins in the window and the display racks in the background. You should treat the banjo the same or treat the violins and racks in the background with a blur. I thing shallow depth of field with heavy broken is effective in photography and film, but less effective in illustration.
RE: January 3rd Thursday
@Katrina-Fowler This is the best work I have seen you do. I really like where you are going with this piece. The looseness of the brushwork and variety of edges gives the piece a good feel. The only tip I can give you at this time is to integrate the cool sky light into the boy running. YOu got the lighting right in the background campers and the boys coloring looks out of place. Beautiful work!
RE: January 3rd Thursday
here's a quick paint over. not sure if any of my edits made much of a difference since it started so strong. I added a really crappy dog with the hunter as I thought he needed a companion.
RE: January 3rd Thursday
@natiwata I really like this piece and the brushes you used do a great job emulating gouache. I would love to see the preset used to get this effect. As far as your piece goes there is little I can think of to make it better. I have some thoughts you may want to explore though:
- The dappled light is effective in drawing your eye through the piece. The high contrast light on the bush to the left of the fox is competing for attention. Try reducing the contrast on these a bit. You may want to consider just a few more light spots on the rump and on the tail to draw the eye to the foxes den.
- I would soften the shadow on the small fox tail under the tree. since it's already in shadow you are dealing with bounced ambient light only and nature would not provide such a hard edge there.
- I have always heard cutting appendages off at the page edge is a big no-no. Try adding more painted area to capture that rear foot.
- I really like the dry brush effect on the bush to the left. That same quality of brush work would add more interest to the fox.
RE: January 3rd Thursday - Help with color!
for lighting reference I always like to see how Pixar handles it. They always really push the warm light cool shadow to great effect. Remember grass is not always green especially when in shadow. You seem to be missing a cast shadow from the baby on the mother. Cast shadows do a great job of revealing form as the wrap around an object.
RE: Buffalo run!
@mattramsey I recall in one of the videos on SVS (not sure which course as they are starting to blur together) one of the instructors mentioned that literally illustrating what is written by the author is not the best approach and that some of the most successful picture books actually illustrate the events after what is written providing more information that the text alone originally provided. With that understanding I think we can be more flexible in our illustrations. I would be curious what @will-terry or @lee-white thinks.
RE: January 3rd Thursday... maybe
@Chip-Valecek Chip, funny the first thing I thought of when figuring out what made such a horrendous noise was Donald Trump as well. I quickly moved on though. I think you need to show him at his most angry, rage fueled rant. Maybe there is a Trump rally just outside Stanley's door. Poor Stanley
RE: 3rd Thursday Rules ???
Really I am down with whatever change that allows for my work to be critiqued every month. Call me selfish @Will-Terry or @Lee-White can you make that happen?
RE: 3rd Thursday Rules ???
I really don't think the system needs a complete overhaul. Maybe the frequency of having an opportunity to be critiqued should be looked at, but that's really it. Maybe it is something as simple as not being able to be critiqued in consecutive months. We all have to remember that this competition is free and the SVS staff has limited time outside their paying gigs.

My Un-Tragic Birthday
So today I turn 30!
I did some bucket list things and some housekeeping things in anticipation of this monumental birthday. I ran my first half marathon last weekend and yesterday I got the tattoo I've been wanting. Also yesterday, I finally took down Christmas and pulled my house back together after much neglect. I cleaned out my closet and my pantry for a fresh start of a new decade.
Everyone keeps asking how I feel about it with a little edge in their voice like they're expecting my answer to be negative. With my kids, I always get emotional.
But honestly, I'm so excited!
Since I got married as a baby and had babies as practically a baby myself…I feel like I've been living the 30-year-old life for a while. I've driven a minivan for more than half of my 20s. I rest my case.
As I have taken inventory of who I am over the last few days, I have discovered a lot of things I'm so glad that I have grown out of.
- Letting other people define me: I don't have to be what other people think I should be anymore. I've finally settled right into who I am, and I have finally become okay that it's not always everyone's cup of tea. What freedom!
- My need for perfection: Messy house, cluttered car, kids in pajamas and slippers at the grocery store…they're all a part of a full life. If I stop the meaningful things that we are doing to make sure that everything is perfect, we're all missing out. So not worth it anymore.
- Creating unrealistic expectations: Did you know that a road trip will not be magical and full of learning and wonder? Did you know that eating whole, organic food is amazing and also not always feasible 100% of the time? Did you know that brothers will not hug and express how much they missed each other after school? I do too, now.
- Judgment of myself and others: Life is so messy, you guys. We're all walking different paths and have our different pains. Everywhere you look, life is hard. There is so much good in unexpected places, and we need to stop judging and start seeing each person right where they are. No one is perfect, and neither am I. It's time to let us all off the hook.
- Excessive planning: I'm a planner. I even have a degree in it. But you know what's so fun? Not having a plan. We're going to Disney World next week, and I have planned…where we are sleeping. That's all. We have a hotel room and a wide open week. I can't wait.
- Being annoyed about nothing: If Ty leaves his clothes on the side of the bed every single night and morning…who freaking cares anymore? I'm gonna pick up his clothes and let him live his life. When my kids leave their shoes RIGHT OUTSIDE THE SHOE CLOSET…Well…it's a work in progress.
- Jockeying for position: When you first get married, become a parent, get a job…there is so much thought that goes into what my specific responsibility is, worrying if I will get lost in the shuffle. No more. I know who I am, I know what I'm good at, and I know what my contribution to the world is.
- Saying yes to everything: You guys. Did you know that "no" is a holy answer? I'm NOT good with 15 children at church – NO, I cannot do this. Holy because I'm saving all of our lives. You're welcome.
- Settling into life: We have hustled the last ten years. We got married, bought houses, started a business, and had kids. Now it's time to spend our time helping those things to grow and flourish.
- Enjoying our teenagers: I know I said that I was getting rid of unrealistic expectations. But seriously, though. I really think that despite their hormones and moodiness and teenagerness, we will really enjoy our kids as they grow up.
- Loving people differently: Now that my eyes are adjusted to the realities of life, I have developed a different love for people. A love for people and their stories that runs deep.
- Running in my own lane: I've nailed down who I am, what I'm good at (and what I'm not), and what I'm about. Now I have some direction for staying in my sweet spot.
- Learning new things: I plan on learning Spanish and exploring and traveling to so many new places. There's a great big world of people to teach us so many things out there. I can't wait to take our kids and go learn about it all.
- Trusting God's plan: I've finally learned that when I trust what God's asking of me, no matter how hard or uncomfortable, life gets so spacious and full of adventure and love. And there's no better place to be than in that life.
- Laugh lines: Yes, wrinkles can be a side effect of growing older, but they're also battle scars and a record of our life lived. They're representative of those we've loved, those we've grieved for, the laughter we've shared, babies we've raised. They're from confidence gained, tears shed, and journeys hard fought.
Getting older just doesn't have to be the tragedy I keep hearing about.
I see my mom, who's age will remain a mystery because I value my life, and I am proud of her and what she has accomplished, survived, and become. She's full of wisdom and dignity. She's got grandkids to adore, an empty nest to enjoy, and a kitchen she uses frequently to bless everyone around her. She does P90x because she knows that getting older doesn't have to mean you stop moving. She's found her lane and she's running it so well.
I see my Grandma Kay and all of her growing grandchildren and great-grandchildren and I see so much enduring love. She's constantly fundraising for her Assistance League, event planning, and enjoying the family all around her. She's rich in knowledge and history – her stories cover so many different major events and smaller, more personal histories.
30 is just a step in that direction – growing in wisdom, life, and love. I'm committed to leaning into this aging thing. Let's start changing our minds about this idea that growing older is something to be mourned.
Let's celebrate instead!
I'll bring the cake.

It is recommended that all building dead loads be applied to the header prior to installing the NanaWall. If so and if a reasonable amount of time has been allowed for the effect of this dead load on the header,then only the building's live load can be used to meet the above requirements of L/720 or 1/4" (6 mm). If not, both the dead and live loads need to be considered.
B. Examine surfaces of openings and verify dimensions; verify rough openings are level, plumb, and square, with no unevenness, bowing, or bumps on floor.
C. Installation of units constitutes acceptance of existing conditions.
A. Install frame in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations and installation instructions. Properly flash and waterproof around the perimeter of the opening.
B. Installer to provide appropriate anchorage devices and to securely and rigidly fit frame in place, absolutely level, straight, plumb and square. Install frame in proper elevation, plane and location, and in proper alignment with other work.
C. If necessary, provide drain connections from lower track.
D. Install panels, handles and lock set in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations and installation instructions.
E. If necessary, adjust hardware for proper operation.

A couple of weeks ago, I spent a few nights coming up with some Mini Cooper patterns for my new Moo Mini Cards. I decided to turn them into gift tags. My Mini patterns are printed on the front, and my website is printed on the back, with plenty of room to write "to" and "from." They are going to make great little freebies for my etsy orders. I plan to punch holes and tie them with my new black and white baker's twine. After an agonizing few days wait (so impatient) they were waiting for me in my mail box last friday. I'm thrilled with the way they came out! I'm having a hard time picking my favorite. First, here are my MINI Argyle cards in candy colors:
Ok, fine. I think I know which are my favorites:
The tiny Mini and trailer doesn't hurt, either. I'll take a full-scale version of each, please.
Moo Mini Mini Cards.

A shocking image of the Duchess of Cambridge with a black eye has been circulating all over the Internet in recent days.
Many feared for Kate Middleton's safety after seeing the photo, which also featured the caption 'Kate finally reveals what caused the dispute'- implying domestic violence.
But to the more trained eye it's rather clear that the image has been photoshopped and it turned out to be a sick advertisement for a face cream product.
The advert has popped up on several major news websites Mammamia reports, which if you click instead takes you through to a piece titled 'Princess Kate Middleton Will Spend Time Away From the Royal Family To Campaign For Breakthrough Skincare Line!'.
Many have been sucked in by the premise of domestic violence and the promise of celebrity news, but have instead clicked through to a fake article of fake news and even a fake celebrity endorsement to boot.
But what's probably even more worrying though is that this skincare line featured, Junivive, does in fact exist and has apparently had a history of scamming customers in the past.
Keeping the scamming element out of it, using domestic violence to attract people's attention is just completely and utterly shameful and undermines what a serious issue it truly is.
This is just another wake-up call that we all need to be more literate in fake news and that you really can't believe everything you see on the Internet.

The first teaser trailer for Dwayne Johnson's Faster has been released and if you're not familiar with the movie…it's Johnson's return to kicking ass. If you're like me and think Johnson has been wasting a lot of time in the family friendly arena, you'll be happy to know in Faster he's all business as he's trying to avenge the murder of his brother. While the teaser doesn't show too much footage, it's a good taste of what's to come. Hit the jump to check it out. For a lot more on the movie, you can read my set visit here.
Faster is directed by George Tillman, Jr. and it also stars Billy Bob Thornton, Maggie Grace, Moon Bloodgood and Carla Gugino. The film gets released November 24, 2010. Here's the official synopsis:
After 10 years in prison, Driver (Dwayne Johnson) has a singular focus – to avenge the murder of his brother during the botched robbery that led to his imprisonment. Now a free man with a deadly to-do list in hand, he's finally on his mission…but with two men on his trail – veteran cop (Billy Bob Thornton) just days from retirement, and a young egocentric hitman (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) with a flair for the art of killing and a newfound worthy opponent. The hunter is also the hunted. It's a do or die race to the list's finish as the mystery surrounding his brother's murder deepens, and new details emerge along the way hinting that Driver's list may be incomplete.
