My sincere apologies for my delay in approving and responding. I agree with your recommendation. I've been on hormone replacement therapy since I was 37 years old. Brain injuries can disrupt hormonal balance. Unfortunately, my doctors took me off of my hormones for "those 5 years" during the "hormones cause cancer" scare. I've been back on them for the past 6 years and getting them adjusted every year and when I change other meds. They have made a huge difference. The first week of July, I will be in a position to start giving my blog regular attention. I hope to hear back from you in the future. Lois Maria,

I know from personal experience, it is very stressful to coordinate care between both, it feels somewhat counter productive. Marge, I, agree with your comments. I am fascinated by human energy, the interrelationships between healing mind, body and spirit, and restoring balance within the body. I love learning about alternative healing practices. I would be interested in learning more about Shamanism and Shamanic healing from you. Congratulations Marge, on opening your practice as a Shamanic Practitioner! Marge,

Got you hooked up to receive my newsletter. In the meanwhile, you can read past humor tips on my website at <a href="http://www.lessonsfromlois.com/humor_tips.php" rel="nofollow">Humor Tips</a>. For other readers, Kelly and I became fast friends six years ago, when I submitted my brain injury story to the Brain Injury Association Of Montana Website, long before I started my motivational speaker business. Kelly was surfing the internet in New York in the middle of the night looking for information about brain injury and came across my story. She phoned me the next day. We've been in and out of touch the past six years. So glad to reconnect with you Kelly! Kelly,

While I wouldn't go without doctors, I believe there is much we don't understand about human energy and the interrelationships between healing mind, body, and spirit. Alternative healing approaches can change our internal balance and bring about better health in all these areas. I would be interested in hearing more about your experiences with Hashimoto's and menopause - this combination is so common and there is so little known about how to deal with it.

And I laughed for the first time in like forever. Only I (in this home) can relate to what you are saying. And I have to tell you it beats any meds I have to take tonight. Sent an email earlier as I thought I lost contact with you. Can you hook me up to all your daily snacks like news letter etc...I need the humour. I'm so sick of the "she's way out of my leaugue" crap it's not funny or "she's too complex to treat"..so I get passed on like a 100.00 bill and get spent as quickly. ugh! Hope to hear from you soon, I look forward to talking to you about My Bing Bang, I had to do something with this crazy life I've been left with; called "Rare Brain Injury" Your Friend, Kelly Lois,
