This year’s Christmas Eve dinner as usual, consisted of the preparation of fish. I was hosting Christmas Eve dinner to mother, father, brother, his wife, father in law, and our family. After the dinner celebration was over, the dishes were cleaned and our family retired to bed. A few hours later, I awoke with strong abdominal pain. Son also was ill with similar pain. Both of us had a high fever and experienced severe digestive system remorse. The next day mother informed spouse of a rash that she acquired. Mother and son recovered from this illness thought to be food poisoning. I however continued to experience severe abdominal pains and so spouse brought me to the hospital. Here it was most likely confirmed that I had indeed suffered from food poisoning. For many months, my digestive system had still not returned to normal requiring several visits to various physician specialists where tests were administered to ascertain the problem. All of these tests were returned normal. Waiting sometimes weeks for the test results however created anxiety in me, which probably compounded my abdominal distress. Through other physician examinations at this time, it was recommended that I procure a mammogram screening. I was annoyed at this suggested test as my problem was digestive related. However, I followed the physician’s advice and made an appointment for a mammogram. Informed that this procedure was a minimal, painless procedure, I was in awe when I viewed the size of the mammogram machine. It was a floor to ceiling gigantic piece of equipment that presses a woman’s breast onto a metal plate at mid level. This procedure was not painless and I feared that I might acquire cancer due to this test. By the middle of 1990, I quit visiting physicians and sought out a chiropractor who eventually solved whatever problem I had.

Retrospective: It appears as though some people have sacrificed large amounts of family time to achieve materialistic goals. Illusions create insanity in people. Hand signals were reviewed with spouse after the Coco Beach incident. Trust one’s initial instinct regarding a situation. If instructed otherwise, investigate and research the history of anything of importance and armed with evidence, reject ill begotten advice or procedures. Societal pressure, especially more pronounced in an evil society, greatly influenced me into believing that I needed a job with a salary. At this time, I was more valuable to my family working at home. It appears that the rules for all people are not the rules for some people as shown through the story of the desired food truck business. Many young children’s books do not illustrate children but instead picture animals or creatures that cannot be discerned, but portray childlike speech, activities, and other child characteristics which may confuse young children into believing that they are animals or some other weird creature (children’s television shows are similar).  A uniformity of health care procedures based on a particular illness, may result in the substantial lowering of costs. Hypochondria can exacerbate a problem or create new problems.
