“I often get in my flesh...”
THAT is an AWESOME way to put it, Skooz! That was a really nice post. Thank you!
(No huge Prince fan, BTW.)
What you said should apply to ALL of us, EVERY day, but MAN, that is NOT easy, LOL! :)
I had a late baby too, when I was 40. They were big on making me have an amneo too, as I was “high risk”. I finally told the nurse to write in the chart that I was refusing for “religious reasons” and they finally let it be. The little nurse that was helping me that day said she was glad I refused, that she had an amneo with her baby, and fretted so much about it, that she miscarried (sad). God blessed us with a beautiful bouncing baby boy, perfectly healthy.
LOL! Good comeback!
Most geniuses are.
The likely reason for his drug use was that from wearing heels and dancing for so long, he destroyed his hip joints. He needed hip replacements, which he refused, for at least 10 agonizing years.
It was also known that as a child he had epilepsy, but there was no mention of it as an adult.
He left no known children. And his vault is believed to contain an enormous amount of unpublished music, but because he died instate, it may be decades before ownership is established.
LoL. An ounce would produce at least 20-30 joints if that many were smoked in a day there would be no time left to eat Twinkies.
Thanks for posting this. I remember this sad story and thought of it again when Prince passed last year.
“I wonder though, how much an effect of lots of drug use has on miscarriages.”
In the case of the father it probably has almost no effect, in the mother who knows, it could be a good deal, but you know that junkies have babies every day.
But this poor child of Prince’s really had some rare dooming genetic disease, probably the type of thing that can happen to anyone, but almost never ever does. I remember this story when it happened.
Yep, bit of a dichotomy that one. I had similar arguments with co-workers back in the 80’s. One guy kept talking about how spiritual Prince was. I then said “dude, have you listened to his lyrics?” The words to “Darling Nicky” would strip the paint off an outhouse. Didn’t matter. The cognitive dissonance was strong with that one.

At the time our oldest was born, the reliability of the amniosentisis test was something like 55% and the possibility of miscarriage was unacceptably high.
So basically I could flip a coin and get the same accuracy without the risks.
What a kind post. Thank you.
It's hard to die from an overdose of Xanax. It's easy to die from an overdose of opiods. You stop breathing.
opiods > opioids
Yeah why is it so hard to die from xanax?
My brother is a decent sized guy and he gets loopy if he takes .5mgs.
He has a small number the doctor gives him before he makes presentations at work several times a month. .25 does the trick.
In my younger days I maxed out at 20mgs in a day.
The farthest I got with opioids was that I stopped pooping. They have a serious effect on the digestion system.
Shoulder surgery, off the opioids in 3 days. I really didn't like that I was so "dopey", but on the other hand, pain sucks. There is a time for them, but they need to be controlled.
Somewhere on youtube, there's a tribute to George Harrison where a bunch of great musicians play "While my Guitar Gently Weeps". Prince is among them. He surprised me - he was an excellent guitarist. And a showman, which I already knew.
And the two guys from Steely Dan are good too.
Prince, Tom Petty, Steve Winwood, Jeff Lynne and others -- "While My Guitar Gently Weeps"
BTW, I have never watched the movie "Purple Rain". I'll put it on my bucket list. Oh wait, I don't have one.

He could have been shocked to death or slipped and broke his derriere.
