Obstetrics and gynaecology - Malcolm Catt a miracle man


Malcolm Catt

Malcolm Catt died on Australia Day after liver
cancer took hold of him suddenly after some
time in remission
He always sat right up the front and sang the
hymns well.
I didn’t know he was a musician. He had his
LMus. A in piano at 15 and played a Mozart
concerto under Sir Eugene Goossens. He
regularly played chamber music and often
performed concerts with the Central Coast
Orchestra. Indeed, he came from a very
musical family. His sister is the Director of
Music at the historic South Brisbane St.
Andrews Anglican Church where she is
overseeing the restoration of their historic
organ. He gave up a musical career to become
a leading obstetrician. However, he was an
organist at the Gosford Uniting Church.
Malcolm’s funeral was held on Wednesday,2nd
February at 10 am, conducted by the Rev. Dr
David Gill and the Rev. Graham Woolnough of
Gosford Uniting Church.
The family requested the presence of the choir
to lead the hymns. The soloist was Matthew Cin
who sang in January at the last service Malcolm
attended which meant so much to him in his
dying days. By request Byron Westbury played
the trumpet.
The fact that the church was packed with
mourners on a working day attests to the high
regard in which this gentle man was held.


* I wanted to share this with you. A local leading obstetrician.
He found my first cancer, it was rare he had never seen 
it before but he acted in an amazing manner. I wanted to 
say doctors are amazing we trust them with our lives. Malcolm
Catt was a very nice man, cancer awful disease. RIP Dr Catt
Sharing this as they are human, we forget that.

"Hard nipples" - areola or nipple skin

Someone once wrote"... when i get really cold, or get goosebumbs all over my body, the whole things really scrunch up, like, my entire areola scrunches itself up into a wrinkled little mound. it looks really weird and ugly, and i haven't ever seen other people's breasts do it. what is wrong with my areola/nipples??" The answer: Well nothing is wrong. This is what my areola does too. It's a normal reaction to the coldness or to irritation / stimulation. The little muscles in the areola do a similar goosebump thing as your other skin can do. People often call this phenomenon "hard nipples". Also note that skin on areola has less feeling or sensation to it than other areas of your body. If the areola was very sensitive, then breastfeeding would probably be quite uncomfortable because the baby pulls and tugs it! The nipples are sensitive but the sensitivity changes with hormonal changes, such as occur at mestrual cycle or pregnancy. Also this v...

Monumental cleavage alert! Did Natalie Portman get a boob job?

Black Swan Oscar winner Natalie Portman has sparked feverish debate about whether or not she's had a boob job, after she appeared on camera at an American football game looking bustier than before. The 31-year-old, who gave birth to son Aleph in June 2011, was watching the game in Austin, Texas during a break from shooting the as-yet-untitled new Terrence Malick film. With co-star Michael Fassbender by her side, a newly blonde Natalie was spotted by the cameras during the ABC broadcast. While it could very well be a push-up bra, or a consequence of breast-feeding her bub, Twitter fans immediately speculated about the star's potentially enhanced assets. "Natalie Portman @ the Texas-Baylor game ... boob job? Looks like it!" one user wrote. "Wait a second, did Natalie Portman get a boob job? Is she pregnant? On the sidelines of Texas game and #wow," another tweeted. Comments on the YouTube clip ran along the same lines, albeit many of them ...

Loosing a parent!

When a Parent Dies: Dealing with the Loss of Your Mother or Father By David Kessler This is spot on. I guess until you go through this you will never know.  #parents #love #grief #davidkessler #survivor #iamstillawoman  When a parent of an adult dies, there is almost an unspoken expectation that it will not hit you head on. An adult is expected to accept death as a part of life, to handle all sudden losses in an appropriate adult manner. But really, what does that mean? That you should not be sad? That you should be so grateful they didn’t die when you were a child that you don’t need to mourn your parent? The above considerations demonstrate an under-estimation of grief. Grief is the reflection of the connection that has been lost. That loss does not diminish because you are an adult or because your mother or father lived a long life. Our society places enormous pressure on us to get over loss, to get through the grief. But how long do you grieve for the man who...
