Short notice

OK I realize, in order to keep this a hopeful site, I need to provide a sign of life once in a while: Actually, I was busy watching the world cup, settling into Hamburg, getting my projects off the ground (The latter two being on the slow side). But health-wise I am still fine, apart from the usual attacks of hypochondria: I realize I am impatient and can get rather angry, which I think did not happen so much in the past. And of course the over-sensitized brain-cancer-survivor -brain (haha) transforms this into possible early signs of tumor recurrence. OK. I honestly DO NOT BELIEVE, this is actually the case. But, to tell you the truth, It has crossed my mind. I ride my bike to work every day, take my anti-seizure meds, drink my green  and my Una de Gato -teas, fight with concentration problems, live with my occasional forgetfulness. Overall not bad for a guy with a gulfball-size piece of brain tissue missing, no?
only so much :

I AM STILL HERE!!!

  1. Thanks for the update! Enjoy the rest of the world cup and have a great summer. A quick question: where do you get your teas? Can they be bought in Hamburg, or do you buy them online?

    All he best,

  2. Thank you!
    Concerning the teas:
    I found a herbal pharmacy in Hamburg (to my surprise!) for the Una de Gato (cats Claw), the other one of the two teas, however, (Uxi de Amarelho, Cherimoya bark) I still get from my friend as a "direct import" from Brazil....

  3. Thank you for answering so quickly!
    I need to contact friends more knowledgeable on herbs than me it seems...Don't really want to go for any random web based herbalist thingy. I just found one where they sell dried flowers of a kind that there is about 10.000 of right outside my door. 14 GBP. For now I will have to settle fora cup of that and concentrate on Brazil VS Chile.

  4. I have never heard of the cat's claw tea. How is it supposed to be good for you?

    Glad to hear things are going well!
