I’m switching over to Blogger…..please come and find me there 🙂
Stan
I don’t even know where to start….
Stan loved a good steak. We had so much fun eating out together….99% of the time we ate the same thing….steak! His medium well and mine medium rare. He enjoyed life. So, even though he died sooner than he should have atleast he enjoyed the time that he was here. I feel lucky to have known him and I am so happy that Lily had the chance to know her grandfather. He wanted to take her to Disney so badly….it’s all he talked about since the day she was born. So, one of these days we will take her and I know that, even though he’s gone, the joy that Lily feels while she’s there will shine through to where ever he may be. I love you Stan and always will. You will be missed!
Stanley Zimiles 1938-2009
Seths father Stan passed away this morning at 3:15 a.m. It is so sad but also a relief….a relief to know that he is no longer suffering. He has one of the biggest hearts I have ever come across and I will miss him so very much.
Go Braless!!
Extended bra wearingSydney Ross Singer and Soma Grismaijer (husband-and-wife authors of Dressed to Kill, Avery Press, 1995) have discovered a possible trigger for breast cancer in interviews of 4,730 women in five major US cities, conducted between 1991 and 1993. They found that:
Women who wore their bras for 24 hours per day had a 3 out of 4 chance of developing breast cancer (their study included 2056 subjects for the cancer group and 2674 for the standard group).
Women who wore bras more than 12 hour per day but not to bed had a 1 out of 7 risk.
Women who wore their bras less than 12 hours per day had a 1 out of 152 risk.
Women who wore bras rarely or never had a 1 out of 168 chance of getting breast cancer.
The World Health Organization calls chemical toxins the primary cause of cancer. Poisons accumulating in breast tissue are normally flushed by clear lymph fluid into large clusters of lymph nodes nestling in the armpits and upper chest. Because lymphatic vessels are very thin, they are extremely sensitive to pressure and are easily compressed. Chronic minimal pressure on the breasts can cause lymph valves and vessels to close.
A look at the breast cancer rate in countries where bra-wearing is not the norm shows a very low incidence of breast cancer. Japanese women living in Japan, where bra-wearing is uncommon, have a very low incidence of breast cancer; however in second generation Japanese-American women, the breast cancer rate sky-rockets to match that of the Western world.
The overall increase found between 24-hour wearing and not wearing at all was 125-fold.
Throgs Neck Bridge
We drive over this bridge every single weekend when we go to visit Seths father Stan who is dying of cancer. It’s a beautiful bridge but I wish I didn’t have to cross over it so often. Every time we cross it means we are closer to the end.

As intelligent Mr Toad.”
