Eliminate fibroids with Care Cure acupuncture

Thu, May 05, 2016

The most common symptoms of uterine fibroids are abdominal pain, decreased period cycle days, heavier menstrual bleeding, increased discharge, dropping down sensation of hard object in the stomach, and even frequent urination due to the bladder being pressed by the womb.

The elimination of fibroids is connected with the liver function, according to traditional Chinese medicine theory. For example the liver regulates blood flow, nourishing the acupuncture channels running through the body. This liver blood also acts as a generating source of menstrual blood. The uterine fibroid is actually a symptom of Qi and blood stagnation occurring in the womb. Normally there is an abundant blood supply circulated in the womb, but stagnation of this can lead to menstrual bleeding which leads to a blockage occurring, forming fibroids.

Families and weddings Easter 1916

Thu, May 05, 2016

Joseph Plunkett and Grace Gifford were to have a joint wedding with his sister Geraldine Plunkett and her fiancé Tom Dillon, at the Rathmines church, Easter Sunday, April 24 1916. The confusion about the on/off Rising, the rumours about the possibility of Roger Casement being taken prisoner in Kerry, kept the couples guessing as to what would happen. But Joseph, one of the principle organisers of the Rising, probably knew more that what he said to his sister, that Grace ‘did not know the smallest thing about the political situation, and had no idea whatever of such things’.*

Newtownsmith

Thu, May 05, 2016

There is a very interesting map of “St Stephen’s Island” in Mary Naughten’s excellent little history of the Parish of St Francis in Woodquay. It is dated 1785 and shows the beginnings of what would be now known as Newtownsmith. It consisted mostly of small houses, yards, malt houses, and a burial ground. This ‘new town’ was largely built by the governors of the Erasmus Smith estate. In this suburb, a county courthouse was erected between 1812 and 1815, and a town courthouse during 1824. In 1823 it was objected that there were several suitable sites for a new courthouse ‘immediately in the town’ and that it was ’quite idle’ to lay foundations in Newtownsmith, or in any part of the suburb.

‘They all died well, but MacDonagh died like a prince.’

Thu, Apr 28, 2016

Padraic Pearse, the self-identified President of the Provisional Government, and Commandant-General of the Army of the Irish Republic was rushed to the gallows, or in this case to the grim stonebreakers yard at Kilmainham jail.

In the chaos that followed the Rising during which 450 people were killed and more than 2,500 wounded, around 3,500 had been arrested, 79 of whom were women.* The signatories of the Proclamation, and the leaders of the various rebel held garrisons around the city, were either already separated out, or quickly pointed out among the crowd.
