Dear Josie,

Always feel free to write whatever you want to. I want

to be here for you. Like you, I have a small family

and losing one is a real trauma. Father's Day was

really tough for me this year. My dad had only been

dead for 18months. I thought It would be tough last

year, but it wasn't (because I was looking for it).

This year I thought I would be okay because of last

year. BAMM!!! I was upset and depressed all day.

You hang in there! One day at a time is all we can do!

Thanks for this information, Frantz.

I agree on the Asian markets for tea. I called into one recently and was

shocked to find how cheap their Gunpowder tea was. It's really good quality

too. Needless to say, I bought several boxes.

Love your comment about the SCOBIES being like athletes on steroids. Hee

hee.

Pangie

<Wales, UK>

-- Hi

Hi

I thought I would share with this wonderful group some experiences and

observations:

1. SCOBYs management... In the beginning I wanted to have as

many SCOBY as I could just in case... Now, I have too many of

these...I do not have enough containers to put them into. I have

given them to friends but that does not seem to be enough... The

growth is truly spectacular... with each brew producing its own

offspring... []

2. Somewhat related. SCOBYs are thicker now. To such an extent I

have somewhat lost my original " Mother " the offspring are thicker,

especially the hibiscus SCOBYs . These tend to be on the large

side, like Athletes on steroids []

3. Taste. So far, I liked the WOG but the Hibiscus and the

PuErrh are growing in my estimation. PuErrh is especially

distinctive in its flavor, strong and earthy.

4. I have increased both the quantity of tea and sugar in my

brews. It makes them take longer to brew but the taste seems to be

better. I am now using at least 10 teaspoons of tea in various

combinations; recently I have, by mistake, a White, PuErrh, Green

and Hibiscus brewing. I wanted to just do my usual White, Oolong,

Green and Hibiscus brew... I mistakenly used Pu-Errh in place of

Oolong... I will let you know how it went.

5. My brews are so far reasonably fizzy but not close to what I

am reading on this forum and certainly not GT Dave's bubbly... I do

a lot of secondary fermentation and so far even after a week, good

fizz but not volcano-type... not even close.

6. I have brewed in rather high temperatures. In a garage where

the temperature averages 90o F during the day. The resulting brew

does not taste that much different from its sibling in cooler

temperatures, excepts for the apparent production of more yeasty

thingies, those black/brown things in the brew , and maybe it brews

faster , still takes all of 10 days to get to a good taste, I like

them maybe less sweet than another person but not vinegary…

7. I will in a few months try the continuous brew method, just

for the fun of it… I wonder how you teat the humongous SCOBY

that would form with such method but…

8. Lately some of my brews have developed a small but

perceptible acetone smell, I still drink them but do not like it

much, and I have found some of my Hibiscus to tend toward some

" acetone " production… What gives? I used only distilled

water, White sugar and Tea.

9. Folks if you have an Asian grocery or market close to you.

Hit it. I have found good tasting teas at extremely good

prices and the variety of teas is bewildering.

10. As for the effect of KT on my health, let me put it this way: I

intend to drink KT until I leave this plane of existence.

That is all folks

Willow,

Thank you so much for the kind words. Sometimes it is a difficult thing for the moderators and I, and when the members say things like this, it makes it all worthwhile. There are many things behind the scenes that we do to ensure that the list runs smoothly. Sometimes we have to fight with spammers and abusive people, people who want to take advantage of disabled people, but knowing that we can help bring hope and companionship to all of you is a huge motivator.

Yes, I am young, and sometimes it gets me down that I can't go and do the things other 28 year olds do, but I try to remember that I've always been a bit different and that obviously I was meant to be this way. I guess we all were, for some reason. I don't think that our creator (whomever anyone believes that is) makes mistakes, and we have trials and tribulations so that we can know when we have a truly joyous moment. At least, that's what I believe.

Thanks again,

Josie,

If your brother is not able to make decisions as your

medical guardian, is their someone who COULD make good

decisions? It doesn't have to be a member of your

family. It could even be a professional like a lawyer

(I think). You deserve some peace in your life and you

haven't had that since I've known you.

[Guest guest]

JosieI think the others are correct in saying if your brother is unable to make decisions for you, especially due to his poor health, you need to find one through the courts. Call your attorney and advise him or her of whats going on, or contact a social worker who can assist you. I remember that your brother's wife is NOT too keen with her husband making decisions for you because of his poor health. In either case, it's a hardship for you and your brother.

Hugs Love & Prayersette

I'm so sorry your situation is so difficult. I understand about not knowing when you should call a doctor or not, and also about difficulties with family. My bio family hasn't had hardly anything to do with me in years - ever since I got disabled out with my disease really. Like you said with your brother, my family either doesn't know how to act around a disabled person, I make them feel uncomfortable, or they don't believe I have the "family disease" since mine is different in many ways than everybody else in the family who has it.

Man, I don't know what a person does when your medical guardian isn't somebody you can rely on. Is there possibly anybody else you could get appointed as your guardian who might be more helpful?

Dear Josie,

I know peace doesn't come easy. Some people are not

capable of being a guardian for another. No matter how

much they may want to, they just can't take on the

responsibility. If your brother can't/won't take care

of you, you need to find someone who will.

Love,

Willow

I'm sorry for such a late reply. I'm trying to reply to a few now. I've been doing very bad, and now have a major surgery pending.

Did you talk to your brother? How did it go? I hope you were able to get through to him. I've actually thought about you several times these last weeks because I have a situation now with close family members who are being, well, less than supportive. It makes it much harder to deal with, doesn't it?

Hi

Welcome to the group, you'll learn a lot here, cruise through the

archives and gather what you can, and ask questions, of course, that's

the best way to fine tune your quest.

You have to tell me what Pitlochery is - no idea!

Hi Larry,

And welcome to the group. Most of us here including me have AS. We're

shy around people too, but you are always welcome to post here, and

lots of times we can get some good conversations going.

seems to be doing some updating here and the forums are

a bit weird today, so bear with us if you have problems posting or

reading posts.

Hi Larry and welcome to Secret Society. I'm Raven, a single mom with

AS raising a very cool 12-year-old with AS and multiple co-

morbidities. My boyfriend has AS and both of us are shy around

others, and I have been accused of being rude more times than I care

to remember just for being shy and myself.

As for having nothing to say, don't worry. Personally, I would

rather hear someone talk when they have something important (to them)

to say rather than hear someone talk because they love the sound of

their own voice.

Welcome and jump in when you feel the time is right for you.
