Here is another post with five Best of Web links I have found worthy to share with you all dealing with a CSF leak and how it can change your life, the Afghanistan Biden betrayal, the lab leak theory behind the origins of the pandemic virus and a rare interview with the Wuhan bat lady scientist, the very long history about the amazing mRNA vaccines and the 2021 Budapest International Photo Awards. Enjoy the weekend reading and see you next week!

A spinal fluid leak derailed my life of travel and food, but taught me to find beauty in the small things
This is the story of Jodi Ettenberg, the founder of the Legal Nomads blog. And how her life changed after a lumbar puncture. In her own eloquent words. You will learn a lot about CSF leaks and other medical stuff and also learn how to be grateful. I am proud to be one of her Patreon supporters because having Jodi improves our world. Support people and causes that make our world better before they quit!
CSF surrounds the brain and spinal cord, and is contained by a connective tissue membrane called the dura mater. A hole or tear in the dura, such as one caused by a lumbar puncture, allows the CSF that cushions those organs to escape. If the hole does not heal, it can lead to a myriad of painful symptoms when a patient is upright, among them the positional head pain that I experienced.
Toxic positivity promises that gratitude is all you need. Losing my mobility taught me otherwise. Feeling general appreciation or gratitude does not fix everything when life unspools. Worse, when illness is involved, the insistence on gratitude can be alienating, and even cause harm. Patients feel castigated for not being “grateful enough.” Gratitude is an effective tool, one among many, when nurtured as a skill. It is not a panacea for pain. And when we jump straight to gratitude without first sitting in the mess of our present, we skip a very important step.
Meet the scientist at the center of the covid lab leak controversy
Must read imho! This is the BEST article by far on the lab leak theory. I have been consistent in what I believe: that Covid-19 probably rose naturally, most likely from bats and we may not find out exactly how for a very long time (if ever). There is a hideous racist and anti China government angle in keeping the lab leak theory alive. The Chinese government certainly has issues and with some actions definitely helped in keeping the lab leak theory alive.
You make up your own mind, read it all please before you go off on me, okay? ?
Last thing I want to say: Thanks to all these scientists for doing this work!
Shi Zhengli has spent years at the Wuhan Institute of Virology researching coronaviruses that live in bats. Her work has come under fire as the world tries to understand where covid-19 came from.
The Betrayal
I have been accused for being pro Democrat and pro Biden. So, I am including this article here which is profoundly anti Biden for balance lol.
The debacle in how we left Afghanistan is all on Biden. And it is sad…And the efforts by many outside the government to save so many loyal friends left behind are heroic!
America’s chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan added moral injury to military failure. But a group of soldiers, veterans, and ordinary citizens came together to try to save Afghan lives and salvage some American honor.
Halting Progress and Happy Accidents: How mRNA Vaccines Were Made
Amazing! The vaccines have been a long time coming. Looking back we may find out we got pretty lucky…Hope this becomes a lesson for the next pandemic #developing
Thank you science!
The stunning Covid vaccines manufactured by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna drew upon long-buried discoveries made in the hopes of ending past epidemics.
2021 Budapest International Photo Awards
These are amazing…
And I leave you with this amazing photograph found HERE.
Thank you for reading my blog. If you enjoy it please pass it on to a family member or friend, thank you!
