Interesting page on yeast/mold/fungus/bacteria

[Guest guest]

In checking out things related to pottery (my current

passion), I came across this website. It's not

directly health related. However, if you'll read it

carefully, it becomes easier to understand how those

of us who have had breast implants could develop a

systemic yeast/fungus problem . . . and pass it onto a

child.

What really baffles me is why the medical profession

is not more concerned???? I would think this stuff

would be a hot topic in medical school!

Thanks for the link, Rogene. As you know, pottery is also my passion.

I've only been studying for about a year and a half. I'm making a bold

move in May. I will be renting a booth at a small arts gathering in my

hometown. We've never had an arts event, as we are a very small

farming community. Our biggest celebration to date is COW DAYS, a

small festival in which we celebrate the COWS in the county, our best

cash crop-dairy farming. So, I'd be interested to share ideas and

thoughts about pottery with you. I'm currently using a HIGHWATER Raku

clay made in Asheville, NC. Do you do raku pottery? J

Hi J,

No, I haven't gotten into Raku yet . . . although the

school has one. I was in pottery 25-27 years ago, but

got sidetracked. I got back into it last fall. As a

senior, I can take a course at the local junior

college, including all my glazes, equipment, and

firing for $36 a sememster! . . . So, while I have a

gas kiln for cone 10 firing available, I'm taking full

advantage of it! . . .

I'm on my way to school now ... so let's take this

discussion private when you get home! . . . Best

wishes and prayers for a good trip on your way back to

good health!

Hugs and prayers,

Rogene
