Domestic violence - the serial wife basher

Tracey Jewel this week has spoken out to protect other woman. Which is great, Tracey Jewel is a great example going through it.
My story,
Met an older man, 15 years older which is workable so I thought.
He was 63 and me 48. He was a dashing older gentlemen, an old soul, caring, sophisticated, funny and most of all entertaining.
My friend Zu introduced us. But where from here. Ok yep it was the greatest 10 months. Romantic and fun. Met the family loved them.  Looked after his 13 year old daughter when she came to visit which was fun.
He was famous but I got to get used to this and he loved attention so that was ok. I had actually seen a couple of episodes of violence after he had been drinking but I didn't ever think he would direct it at me.
His family was great, my family loved him although Dad was concerned for the age gap. As he looks older and I looks a bit younger we look like there is a bigger age gap. My friends adored him. We all loved the very special dinner that's he cooked. He loved cooking and he was Devine yep and we did watch Masterchef together, his favourite show.
We went away heaps had an amazing trip to Melbourne Cup driving. Hey for fun his music was classical and Mozart mine pop can you imagine that going on for a 10 hour drive lol 😂.
We had lots in common. We loved lots of the same things. He treated me and my kids very well. I actually thought I had it all.
But I missed the cracks appearing in his weird friends. Not all of them half of them were delightful. The other half opposing our relationship. Telling him I was using him, I would play up and blah blah.
We discussed this as it was worrying him. I absolutely thought we had gotten through it all.
But one Friday night rainy we had a dinner party with all his friends and some of mine. Zu was in Melbourne on business so she wAsnt around.
That night he was in the kitchen preparing blueberry risotto for entree served with Parmesan cheese in little gold and white cups. Gold spoons of course.
The guests arrived it was champagne all around laughing and enjoying a lovely meal and great company.
His friends started fun picking on me. But it was in Jest there are lots of digs. My man was drinking with them
Champagne to scotch - scotch to wine he was very jolly you could say.
By midnight it was pretty done everyone saying good night and moving to the lift, we were living in this amazing Art Deco apartment at Elizabeth bay in Sydney looking over the water.
So I head in to pack up the table heading straight for crystal glasses one in each hand.
As I passed the door this sounds ridiculous but he had red eyes. !! I know right what's wrong with this picture.  .... a lot
He snapped me around my neck dragging me 10 metres, he was drunk, swearing cursing and strangling me, what the hell!
We headed for the door, I had to keep my feet up, to avoid chocking, we get to the door I am martial arts 🥋 trained. I flippped him so I was behind I kicked him in the back when he came back for me, I broke his ornamental antique walking stick into 3 parts to use them as a weapon.
He ran he turned his phone off..... he could have killed me!!
I sat on the floor and cried what was going on.
His children and x told me then he was a wife beater with a lot of years experience doing this. He had thrown his x down stairs chocking her telling her he would kill her.
I have had a few relationships in my time, but never a violent one.
I called Zu she flew straight home to be with me.
Serial wife beater!
Ok I am smart, I can't stay here it's going to happen again look at the history, so I left. You have to leave.
He never ever said sorry, he made it out that it was my fault it happened. We never spoke for ages.
He has married again now. She is 2 years older than him, so atleast his friends must be happy.
I was called gold digger and opportunist, his friends ruined us.
But then I think it was never meant to be.
Never ever let someone do that too you.

"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...

Mastectomy Drain Breast Cancer Treatment

The  purpose of drains after mastectomy  is to drain away the fluid that can gather in the armpit region or around the scar on the chest wall. Some people after mastectomy also find that fluid gathers around the shoulder blade area on their back - this seems more common if the muscle from the back has been used for  breast reconstruction  at the time the mastectomy was done. When mastectomy is done - and especially if the lymph nodes are removed from the axilla or armpit - then there is a lot of tissue fluid and lymph fluid left with no where to go. This fluid normally flows through the lymph channels but if they are cut then it can escape into the normal skin and muscle tissues. Your surgeon will place drains under your skin after mastectomy. These drains gather up the fluid and remove it to a bottle (or bottles) that you carry around with you. Some people use a  belt clip to attach the drain  to their waistband - making them more mobile. Others car...

Youngest Breast Cancer Survivor

  No one is immune to Breast Cancer.  A four-year-old Canadian Girl, Aleisha Hunter, is reported to be the youngest Breast Cancer survivor in the world. On that note, she is also the youngest woman to ever have a mastectomy. At the age of two, her mother found a lump in her daughter's breast and the doctors confirmed that it was a very rare form of breast cancer. According to the article, less than five percent of women will have to have invasive breast cancer surgery before the age of 40. Luckily, this type of cancer is very slow moving and slow growing. So, she was able to be treated without chemotherapy and harsh radiation that would have harmed her developing immune system. I hope that she continues to heal and will realize how strong and special she is one day when she is older. Aleisha, you are strong and a survivor of a disease that claims a number of lives daily. Women and men alike have been stricken by Breast Cancer, although they are usually much older....
