Two livestreams, one day! See you tonight!
Dr. John Catanzaro was a naturopathic physician in Bothell, WA when the state suspended him on claims he was misleading cancer patients. He owned the Health and Wellness Institute of Integrative Medicine and Cancer Treatment where he was using what he called a "cancer vaccine" to help patients. The DOH alleged that Dr. Catanzaro neglected to tell some of his patients the treatment was experimental. I was a TV reporter in Seattle at the time, assigned to this story at night after his office had closed. We aired the DOH claims without a statement from Dr. Catanzaro and thereby smeared his practice. Later, I interviewed several of his patients who credited him with their lives, and were horrified the state required the destruction of their treatment. But in many ways it was too late, the damage was done.
I almost feel bad for our rooster, Hei Hei. Even though he continually sneak attacks me, I think his bully behavior is driven by the fact that he gets bullied by pretty much every animal on the farm, including our sheep, Maple.
I deal with Hei Hei by making sure I have cat-like reflexes supported by the nutrient dense fermented cod liver/butter oil at Green Pasture. Time to ditch your generic fish oil. Use promo code “ALISON” at check out for 10% off. https://www.greenpasture.org/
Northwest Florida feels so much like eastern Washington today. We have multiple wildfires in the area and a red flag warning. The sun is so hazy and orange just like I remember on those late summer days when we lived north of Spokane. The air quality is poor and it smells like campfire. I had a friend tell me she sold off part of her beef herd early because the drought has made it unaffordable to keep feeding cows as the grass isn’t growing. There is no immediate danger to us, though the conditions make it risky for anyone who lives in a rural area.
One of our year-old Nigerian dwarf does got her head stuck in the fence and I had to help free her. She’s small enough to get her head through but the horns catch the fencing when she tries to walk away. This has happened enough to me that I will be removing horns when goats are born. The other option is re-fencing our entire property which costs way too much money. It can be quite serious when a goat gets their head stuck in a fence during Florida summers. A friend came home one day to find a dead goat like this. If you’re in this situation, turn their head sideways and even their body if you have to do so - then push their head back. They don’t like it but it’s better than death. If you need more strength to rescue goats, don’t forget to ditch that generic fish oil for one that actually has value - the fermented cod liver/butter at Green Pasture!

Americans will be screaming about this in about 2028. After it's done, and when it can be played up in someone's political campaign.
