...such as my *'awesome' discovery of the importance of a certain trace mineral (long promoted by all good health stores everywhere) in my diet...
...I'll inform you about, if you can stand the suspense, in a day or two...
The following day:
So where do, where can, where should I start...?
Let's just say, having experienced intermittent but fairly longish (as in of a couple weeks' duration) bouts of ***what's apparently known as neuralgia...the name/term discovered or rather re-discovered this very morning... -N.B. over most if not all preceding years over the past decade anyhow - it's now well and truly vanished...and no, I won't touch wood and all the rest, but need to beware of speaking too soon...
...but not in the way specified in my footnotes below, i.e. c/o osteopathy, but through a trace mineral.
Understandably...to be continued (again) in the not too distant...
*Much as I hate, no, detest, no, absolutely loathe the way in which this once **perfectly respectable, even positively useful and meaningful term has of recent times come into endless misuse and abuse - especially, sad to say, from otherwise **perfectly well-meaning church folk...
**Employed twice within this selfsame sentence as I simply cannot think of a more perfectly fitting word.
***Which term I've encountered off and on over the years, though never once suggested even as a possible explanation for my on-again, off-again severe neck/upper shoulder pain experienced especially throughout the seemingly long and never-ending days and especially nights of a ****normal Dunedin winter... And rediscovered at long last - this very day in fact - c/o my ongoing 'ocd', on the shelves of the outside 'giveaway' book collection next to the library of a local seminary.
On page(s) 182(-183) of Jill Morgan's A Man of the Word: Life of G. Campbell Morgan, she relates how Morgan 's 'brain fatigue resulted in neuralgic pain, sometimes becoming unbearably intense', leading eventually to his pursuit of osteopathic treatment - 'new in those days, and almost unknown in England'. The skillful services of an expert in the 'science' 'completed Dr Morgan's conversion to the efficacy of osteopathy', which he thereafter 'introduced to many people by his enthusiastic endorsement of Dr [FJ] Horn.'
'Among [these were] members of the peerage (read: British Upper House, or House of Lords) whose influence (at least then!) was widespread. It is safe to affirm that Dr. Morgan helped to a considerable degree to strengthen osteopathy's early foothold in England', using it 'all his life...and recommend[ing] it to others'.
****Admittedly less and less common over recent years and decades, though usually we still do get a 'good' week or two of basic, cold, if thankfully generally calm, dry, sunny, fine & frosty weather...
