  • Rosebush

    Namaste After weeks of nods and smiles and thank you and I love you, my Chinese friend has decided on conversation again. My last visit found him in bed sleeping near lunchtime. I learnt from the Nurses and some of the residents that he was up all night. He did a tour of the place,…

  • Rebirth

    Namaste I was enjoying the morning breeze on the porch while massaging a client at the Home when a gentleman emerged from the doorway with a walking stick in hand. There’s a Therapist here and no one informed me? I’ve never seen him before. He said that he arrived at the Home last week (after…

  • Brazilian Waxing

    Namaste I got a text message from a Therapist stating that she has gotten a new client who has had a stroke and is suffering from severe pain whenever movement is required. She wanted to know if I had any suggestions to share. I started responding: You should brush him… Then I stopped, remembering that…

  • Acronyms

    Namaste I want to take offense, but I am not sure how to go about it. While working with a client at the Home some ladies came to visit the Matron. We exchanged pleasantries as they passed me working on the patio and they proceeded inside. Minutes later another lady, the driver who was outside…

  • Athletic Blues

    Namaste At the end of the football game neither side scored. It was just an evening sweat and I sat watching not understanding most of it. I was invited to the game by the Coach of Team A. Having never met the Coach before, I simply walked across the field to a man who sat…

  • Happy…Ending

    Namaste Sat down to write. Heard my gate. Heard footsteps. I waited. A voice called. I went to the door to see my neighbour with knitted brows staring at my ceiling accessories. He came to put me on alert that thieves broke into one of the apartments and left with a new flat screen TV.…

  • Massage Experiences

    Namaste A lady called to schedule a massage.  After parking she called to tell me that her aunt came with her and the aunt is accompanied by her two grandchildren.  So the aunt followed her, and the grandchildren followed the aunt.  Okay.  I looked out the door to see the posse.  Nobody.  She then emerged…

  • Reflexology by Rinalda

  • Pain Reduction or Induction?

    Namaste Last week COSTATT had their health fair at NAPA and I was invited to hang out with Adepeju at the OMO and BestStart booth.  When I arrived lunch was served so I participated.  One of the persons sitting at my table (or was I sitting at hers?) was from St. Ann’s Hospital and I…
