THE ELEPHANT IS STILL IN THE ROOM
The elephant is a flaw in the system at the the Latrobe Regional Hospital , Traralgon .
A system that lacked any duty of care to my terminally ill husband , a phone call from the hospital initiating a meeting with me has failed to materialise .
I now have a list of people who have approached myself with similar experiences , but afraid to speak out to rectify the problem because they are worried about accessing the hospital in the future .
I`m not going away , the system is flawed I want it fixed , I have asked Russell Northe our local MP to intervene and have sent a letter to the Health Services Commissioner .
In this time , there will be sick patients still falling through the cracks .

Heartburn also know as gastric reflux or indigestion and results in a burning sensation in the chest or throat , leaving a bitter or sour taste in the mouth .
Heartburn is a result of our lifestyle . We miss breakfast , drink lots of caffeine , eat snacks on the run , relax with alcohol and eat a large meal quickly in one sitting .
We also lay down or recline to an arm chair too soon after eating .
Anything that puts a lot of pressure on the stomach can lead to heartburn .
Heartburn is a result of the valve between the stomach and oesophagus opens more than it should , allowing acid to flow from the stomach to the lower oesophagus .
Eating slowly , regularly with small mouthfuls and chewed well , can hep reduce the symptoms of heartburn , along with a mindful intake of alcohol ...

It`s now time to lightly beat an egg and add to the mix to aid with the binding .

TURNBULL DUMPS KNIGHTHOODS AND DAMES
This is not about the Republican movement ....This is a strategic political move
Turnbull was a saving grace in replacing Abbott......but never forget he`s a Liberal .
Dropping the titles of Dames and Knights is sugaring the bowl but the Australian people
won`t buy a trade off for the increased GST that Turnbull is about to penalise all Australian consumers with ....
It is time for Shorten to find his voice .
