Pre Rain Man Autism

Figured out Autism is the next 1000 chapters in psychology. Once we learn the picture thoughts that happen during the lack of eye contact, normal thoughts result. We build on the work of Temple Grandin and we missed Rain Man 's curse. Autism Is BOTH mrdd and Einstein and even social functioning people

There are at least 200 more Autisitc people like me, that function very well and modern autism will not own up to us. We connect MR/DD to Einstein and real life. We missed Rain Man's curse (thankfully) The Turing Motor is Green has no up and down moving parts and will get a reasonable car 90 MPG. It is the motor Ford and Mercedes would have built if they understood their own. It is Autistic Obession and splinter skills all figured out!

Memories and Time Warp Thanks Betty Blosser

Life is odd and strange, and those of you knowing me personally, can confirm I don't always mix well. Well thankfully I  was one of the lucky ones and was able  to over come this curse and blessing of autism -the long hand version of human thought.

Today as I write this one of my best tutors and family friends Betty Blosser is being laid to rest. In Autism all of life is a different experience and last night at the visitation at the funeral home the autism thoughts were taxed to the wildest extreme. I was visiting with her family and relations and memories were flooding back. Since my OPTIC vision was off  when I was thinking in my early life before I learned to do the traditional thought everyone uses my last contact with many of her kids was 35 years ago . then I had to identify people by their voice and sent since my optic vision was off when I was thinking. Think of it as something similar to how a blind person has to identify people.

Now 35 years later I have no visual record of them in my mind that is up to date. We all age and change and yes our voices change. I  was so stunned clueless as to who I  was meeting it was nearly a disaster, Finally I was able to put two and two together and listen in on the conversations and then figure out who was who. I know traditional thinkers have the same issues with long lost connections and you get over them to. In my case, the big point me was I had to resort back to autism thoughts something I have grown out of , to slide threw this social network encounter. Since I learned autism thoughts and they defaulted to traditional thoughts like you use I had not had to turn my OPTIC vision off to think on the go for a long time. Someday when Autism and psychology understand autism they will understand this last statement. 

I had to work very hard  not to the klutz of times past,,,, I had learned to turn the optic vision back on every now and again to make sure I was not walking into someone.  I learned to look at the sound of the noise the conversation of who I was talking to so at least I was looking their way even If I could not see them as my optic vision was off ,my eyes were off. 

In other words autism is the long hand version of human thought,it was my default thought process and It had never been in a text book before. Most humans think in short cut human thought and have no clue of the roots of their mind. Once we learn how to think with the long hand version of human thought the resulting thought is normal thought -your normal thought you naturally knew by default.  The long hand version of human thought can be pure Einstein, Rain Man (movie character) reading the phone book or a dunce in a group home.Some day If Autism research ever figures out autism , they will be able to help all of us to the more normal side of life and maybe even polish a few Einsteins.

Thank you Betty, you were a vital part of this autism experience (unknowingly) and I deeply appreciate your effort and apologize for the confusion, I was looped too.

Generation Rescue news letter



"Amazed to See Our Son Going to The Bathroom!"
~ Celebrating new milestones in the grant program

"I feel I already see a difference with my son and the diet. I am just amazed on how my son is going to the bathroom and the behaviors have decreased in a couple of days. I'm so excited for my boy. There is so much more than meets the eye when it comes to diet, vitamins, and how the body works. Amazing! I am just grateful that there are people who actually care about healing this disorder, I am truly indebted." ~ Heith, Father Warrior

More from Heith...

 

 

If only Autism really did know how our bodies work and IF they had never forgot  the Pain Tolerance their sheer amazement with their success would be tempered with a much needed dose of reality. Long ago and Far away Autism Brochures prior to contemporary autism spent a lot of effort explaining our pain tolerance. Autistic people only feel 7 and above on the pain scale.  Yes, We don't feel a lot of pain until  a condition  is very bad. Yes we also DON"T feel the urge to tell us to go to the bathroom. We miss natures early warning system.  Of course unless you know the Pain tolerance 1st hand having lived with it even the best researcher is clueless.  Really , how can anyone not feel pain? Autism research is keen on promoting the idea were just simply too dumb to do anything anyway so this proven vital ideal of autism is ignored. 

Old autism people like yours truly figured out over time we didn't feel things. I was diagnosed lactose intolerant in my 20's and before I stumbled upon that simple solution I was presenting horrible. I had bloating, gas, pain in the belly, and my doctor had me scheduled for all kinds of sugary and tests. Then thankfully I discovered Dairy pills and lactose intolerance and all was fine. I started taking dairy pills  with a meal and soon all was well. My Doctor swore I would be back as he was convinced I had major issues as I presented. All it was just the last stages of lactose intolerance.  I have been fine ever since. 

People like me from our banished anthropology and in the real world with real pain free injuries can rewrite the medical books but, that will never happen, peer review autism forgot about that point with the onset of the rain man era. Contemporary autism is only playing with 1/2 a deck of cards and it might as well be wearing blinders. What a shame. Our Pain tolerance might hold the key to the next medical discovery for pain and our figured out Autism Picture thoughts  BUILD on the work of Temple Grandin are the next 1000 chapters in psychology AND when figured out they result in the normal thoughts you use all the time.  That last point is the real reason Autism will never be solved, the best of autism researcher is a normal thinker and autism picture thought is the long hand version of human thought /until one researcher knows the picture thoughts and experiences them and converts them to a normal short cut thought autism will be a puzzle.

Speaking of Corporate Ignorance, American Freight. Columbus Ohio

Well to do Republican billionaire types like former presidential hopeful Mitt Romney are a very out of touch group of folks. They are typically blindsided by their money and more to the point it allows for their unfettered arrogance & privilege that comes with their billions. I inadvertently worked for American Freight who is owned by a billionaire type of person. His loud mouthed TV commercials for American Freight sell 7 piece living room suits for $398 bucks. Just imagine the quality ?

I was the door man in a swanky condo community and American Freight with their fingers in a lot of pies ended up owning the 3 empty units in our building plus the opulent penthouse. Now enter their chief guru the mother of the president of American Freight. As any good Republican does, she showed up to inspect her new property. I got 10 minute advance warning that she is a bitch from hell and was going to inspect the penthouse 1st. The penthouse is covered in thick dust The skylights were not letting one bit of light in and they needed cleaned yesterday. I ran up stairs with a hose bucket and ladder did my best to get three lights cleaned out. Meanwhile I get soaked from head to toe not to mention sweat covered working inside the hot sunlight . I had no choice to remove my shirts and make a dash for my car for a different shirt. Naturally, I met her in the doorway as I headed toward the back stairs.

I only had one tee shirt with me that was wearable as I ran down to the car to change. I later met the rude bitch in person in my lobby and she griped I had left out too much equipment and my attire was substandard. Plus the bitch was out of joint as I had floor buffer out and a damp mop. It needed to be out as I was polishing the floor. before I got the 10 minute warning. I brought the toy buffer as she called it at Goodwill as the billionaires on the condo board typical cheap ass republicans could agree we needed a buffer but when came to buying it they hem hauled around the bush about the price for months. Finally, I just brought one at Goodwill to get the job done. That was my first encounter with American Freight.

They get worse. American Freight soon became in charge of my pay checks and they were ALWAYS 2 weeks late and sometimes they were months late. I discovered where their local office was and soon became a regular there seeking my late checks. The president of American Freight was just as bad as his mother was. I encountered him a few times and he even had the ‘good sense” to ask once how much the check was for and I said $600 bucks and he smirked and damm near gave up looking threw a stack of checks for such a small item. Meanwhile I am taking stuff to the pawn shop to get money to pay the car insurance and gas to run it. Utility bills are getting extra charges for being late. Finally they pay up. I lost over $270 bucks in late fees! Talk about a poor tax. American Republicans and often their Tea Party complainers tell EVERYONE to get a job, well I had a job but I often asked why? Going to the pawn shop and the food bank despite working, made it seem like I didn’t . If Mr. Belford really gave damm about people he would have seen to it his employees were paid. Despite working I had to put off going to the eye doctor at least 4 times as the checks were so late I had to cancel the appointment since I didn’t have the money.

Next, American Freight decides to furnish one of the empty units with some of their cheap furniture. Their contractor delivery company shows up with 14 pieces of furniture to fill this large prestigious $500,000 condo. Ok the delivery truck is a used u haul and apparently the only vehicle of its owner and his family . The driver my self and his helper are soon frantically assembling this cheap furniture and the drivers wife is calling as one of their kids is sick and needs to go to the doctor or hospital. He still had 4 more deliveries. I sent them on their way and finished the assembly and clean up on my own. I ALSO paid his delivery and set up charge of $125 bucks on my own. Really David Belford a billionaire owner of lots of things including American Freight could not arrange for the delivery charge to be handled? His delivery firm was a contractor working for ’free’. That is so Republican.!

As you might guess the next pay checks and re imbursement for the delivery were a over a month late and only arrived Dec. 24 . It is a good thing I never do the solstice season with gifts. Still it was the holiday season and pay on time would have been great and made the holiday season livable. You would think , common human decency would dictate that people get paid in a timely fashion but, Republicans are not human they are mean money machines.

Thankfully , my pay checks started coming from another source and I finally was able to recover and get my bills caught up. Still I cringe when some super well off ’job creator’ business person ,republican or tea party type goes on and on about the poor not working. The last time I seen Mr. Belford he was in the car park of the building I work in and double parked his new Porsche in the driving aisle as he visited his properties. He tried to be friendly and I just ignored the bastard. Respect is a two way street if you are not giving any respect don’t expect to get any. For the record I did learn threw the grapevine The Belford’s discovered their maid had kids sleeping on the floor and she tried to get them a few used mattresses.

Perhaps the rich and famous would be dollars ahead to hire all their help from a domestic agency It would cost more but pissed employees writing items like this would become a thing of the past. See they are too cheap to kind to themselves. As America goes third world the well off might be wise to do all their business behind their gated community doors or grow a heart and start treating people like ,people.

Undercover Boss Boston Market

.Boston Market on CBS televisions Undercover Boss Feb. 2013

How very sad yet another Ivory Tower corporation another fast food chain inadvertently showed its hand and real attitude toward its on the ground in the restaurant employees during the TV show called Undercover Boss. This time some Ivory tower executive was sent out to have a look at the inner workings of their chain’s restaurants. This lady left a million dollar republican home with a kitchen that was to die for and had a very hard time pretending to be a normal Joe as she worked for a day a various Boston Market restaurants. Her Ivory Tower Life style and posh lifestyle showed. She was a by the book corporate guru with no real sense of the real world her employees dealt with every day. The woman proved she could not keep up , cut a chicken or run a drive threw, let alone handle the rough edges of employees. Corporate pencil pushers typically money driven republicans don’t have a clue or the experience to realize there comfortable world is not the world of their in the store workers.

Her corporate ignorance was never so evident as when she told the workers of a restaurant that there was built in ‘break’ scheduler on the time and attendance section of the company’s computer. She suggested the employees implement it and take their breaks. Really now? About the time an employee is scheduled for a break there will be a rush of customers. Employees know all too well that if they mess up one of those customers will call corporate offices and gripe. Then corporate comes in and cleans house. Corporate Ivory Tower people have no clue that perhaps not everyone showed up for work that day. Perhaps those that were there were suffering from a sore back, sore feet ,a cold, etc. Perhaps some employees cannot run the register or muli task to do mental and physical limitations? Perhaps there was a full staff there, and no one was in the mood to work for $6.00 an hour? These Ivory tower types would NEVER even go work if they had a sore something. Working class people go to work no matter what just to keep food on the table. I would love to see the corporate Guru’s down there in the trenches- they would not make it.

Boston Market and others are closing restaurants left and right as well they should. America is going third world and fewer white straight and narrow customers with money for the luxury of eating out can afford to frequent their place. These corporate Guru’s sit in their towers and play with the numbers and corporate policies and close stores that don’t perform and of course blame the workers ,the in the store workers. The ivory tower types, simply eventually see the writing on the wall and take their golden parachute and run right before they sell to Mitt Romney (2012 president candidate) and he comes in and plunders what is left of the capital and soon if you want to want to eat at Boston Market it will be in China.

Corporate types are so insulated from the real world that kill their very own company every day with their ignorance of their own business. The very same can be said for autism research the big Gurus’’ could care less of the autistic person all they see is a good job and steady career in autism, they are not about to be honest and promote timely research for fear of cutting their own throat and exposing Autism’s dirty little secret- Contemporary autism is a hoax of pure ignorance that got out of control.

A ringer for philosophy

Making Meaning of life a presentation of the Humanist Community of Central Ohio.

Featured Speaker Dr. Wesley Cray PhD. Philosophy .

Here is a ringer for all of Philosophy.

I enjoyed Dr. Cray’s talk and insightfullness he presented to the Humanist community’s January meeting . His insight and thought provoking banter was just the stuff we needed to warm us up even more, on this warm winter day.

Seriously , though A RINGER, philosophers great and small are not playing with a full deck of cards. I came up from the bottom of the gene pool and did a whole different life than what most people know as normal. My roots reach down the evolutionary ladder to the deep depths of man’s mind. Normal humans unknowingly think in short cut thoughts small snip it thoughts supercharged with passion and emotions that constitute normal thought. I on the other hand unknowingly grew up learning the long hand emotionless deep thoughts that I call the long hand version of human thought.

I am high functioning autistic, forget the contemporary buzzword autism for a moment and listen to the old working autism. Autistic people are noted for our LACK OF EYE CONTACT  while are thinking. That is perfectly normal for us. Here is what is happening (talk of evolution) Our OPTIC vision is OFF our eyes are off. Our brain replaces the optic vision with its own pictures . Those are our thought pictures and we learn them by trial and error then we learn to use them, think with them ,convert them to your normal thoughts and even short cut them- when we finally did short cut them we came up with -guess what? Your normal thoughts. These brain generated images often mimic optic vision that was just cancelled out so it takes a while for the autistic person to discover our eyes are actually off. They can be Einstein quality picture thought unrealted to optic vision or simple mundane things we do every day that feature a close approximation of what our optic vision was. There is no divide or way our brains tell us your now out of optic vision mode. Eventually you get enough experience with a didfferent thought to know it was not optic vision you were dealing with.

Typically when our OPTIC vision is off our hearing and other senses go into hyper mode. In effect we are blind and like blind people we hear way more than normal it is natures way of keeping us alive. I lost track of the times I heard faintest whisper or the oddest noise and that (unknowingly) triggered my optic vision to come on sometimes just in time to prevent an accident. I grew up rural in my own natural out of door hearing chamber and had a great natural connection with animals more to the point their thoughts that were so similar to mine. I watched and played with a family of rabbits that lived under our shed and we all knew when there was hawk in the area as we heard the squeak of it long before it buzzed in for a kill. I remember stunning my grandma who lived on the property and she asked where the rabbits I was playing with had gone and I told her there was a hawk on the loose and they took shelter. She just had a stunned look on her face and she was often the person that understood me the most. Of course, at the time I had no idea what I was hearing was not normal for the traditional person. Typically hearing was the interface between our deep serious long-hand thought and the real world we lived in.

Back to those deep thoughts. Most people would describe our picture thoughts as Daydreams ,it is the closest thing the normal person does to our picture thoughts most of the time. These are however daydreams on steroids or in my case engineering drawings most of the time. Ironically , the normal person DOES think in pictures occasionally . Example your going along in a conversation and suddenly have to stop, your stunned -optic vision is off- and you are looking at a minds eye picture of ’uncle Joe’ You stare at the brain generated picture thought and come up with the idea that is Uncle Joe or you bluff it off. This little snip seems to be one direct connection left to our long hand thoughts as I know them. The long hand version of thought would be like 1000's of files with one picture in it from our memory banks then 100's of soundbites our brains assemble and reassemble time and again to think with. Long hand thoght is good for Einstein things  but poor at keeping  up socially. That is where the social short cut normal thoughts come into play. Case in point most people only use and know the 99 conversations people have. Once we learn  the 99 conversations autistically  we really begin to fit in. Humans only really use the same word patterns over and over but they don't know it.

Picture thoughts If I am right are long hand version of human thought. They seem to be shared by every animal I know about . We animals and humans think in pictures, we see the first optic pictures of life and they are roots to everything else we do. Our brains seem to have a set formula that takes our optic vision and then plugs those pictures in to the brain’s network. I once set next to a parrot and I was connected with him thought wise and I was STUNNED when our probable optic vision was the same as he formed the words to speak, Why there was even in a built in delay time from the time the thought was done till it got converted to words to be spoken. Speech is one of the hardest things to do it has to connect words to physical actions. If only Jane Goodall the famous Ape researcher knew our picture thoughts and those of her apes they could really make music together.



Picture thoughts are the next 1000 chapters in psychology . They are very humbling for man’s ego as it they prove to be what I think they are, man will be so disappointed to discover his roots are in the dirt not in the clouds. These picture thoughts explain everything mankind has been seeking in terms of psychology. It explains Einstein, the serial killer the well rounded social butterfly the psycho and even more. It even explains while people need religion or some other crutch to keep going. I predict someday a psychologist will actually be able to fix a serial killer and yes even depression and OCD among other things. I think all that has roots to a series of uncompleted picture thoughts that we missed in childhood. In Fact once the picture thoughts are known Pre School will include them and mankind will be the better for it. In fact I can even see a picture thought school to create more Einstein’s Most important however is once the picture thought are known it will discovered for the first time man has been fooling himself for centuries by ignorantly not knowing his simple charged with emotion short cut thoughts he calls normal are just social elevotion.

This is the ringer the missing gap in evolution that has never been detectable by even the best of scholars and philosophers as they unknowingly never knew they were thinking in short cuts. I know of at least 200 more people like me in this living unstudied anthropology. We all met online. No matter what country we are from or language we speak we all came up with the same thing mind wise- we learned the long hand version of human thought. Just imagine if we were united and were able to tell our story. Of course modern research of any stripe will not look at as. Autism will not touch as we unintentionally destroy their empire, Psychology will not listen to us as there is just no way according their short cut normal thinking we can solve psychology’s questions and not do it via a great psychologist discovering the keystone thought.

Finally one last point to ponder, all of us in the anthropology that have been injured have stunned our selves and our doctors and ,X-ray tech’s and parents among others as we literally bounce threw life with a pain tolerance that only allows us to feel 7 and above on the pain scale. That confuses us and every medical profession we encounter . Our stories are wild bold and we often walk on broken bones and don’t know it but when we do finally feel pain it is often tool late and the injury is too severe. This would seem to be an evolution thing as well. One last animal story I was bike riding some years ago and ran across a dear stuck in a barb -wire fence. I stopped and made friends with her and slowly undid the fence from her leg and side like me she walked away unhurt form something honestly she probably only felt pain the instant the barb left her skin. Other wise she was painless if my autism experience is the same as hers.

This autism news is all new news for mankind and since it is not coming from the best side of the gene pool and exposes the unexpected answers man has been looking for to be dismal and bland ; there will not be any peer review boards powerful enough to even admit to us. Perhaps if mankind is lucky some philosopher group or psychology group will read this plagiarize the work and start making a few discoveries on their own. More Power to them ! Meanwhile I continue to admire philosophers’ they really don’t fall for anything with out questioning and re questioning the very idea they are trying to prove.

Robot Trouble and Autism

Based on the PBS News Hour report on Robots and helping people 1-9-2013. 


If only the so called mental health professional, psychologist  KNEW what they claim to know of autism in particular they would see why the robots are kind of working as represented in the report. On the other side of the coin, if they only knew what our brains were doing during the lack of eye contact they would immediately see the flaw in the idea of the robots helping. They are indeed helping but in the wrong way.  Since Autism  is unknowingly the long hand version of human thought and those thoughts have never been discovered yet no one realized the normal thought every one knows as normal is just short hand, short thought. That means even the very best professional is clueless to the inter workings of the mind. The mind is very backward very mechanical and it if were not for things like emotions (lightening rods) humans would be bloody boring.

These internal thoughts that present as lack of eye contact in someone autism are just picture thoughts. Yes Daydreams! our OPTIC vision is OFF our eyes are off and our brain replace optic vision with brain vision that we are supposed to think with. IF those thoughts were known we could add 3 more grades to the education system. Even normal thinkers would benefit in learning their root thoughts.

Since,  no one has ever discovered them or had the courage to ask older functioning autistic adults that missed Rain Man's curse what we do to pull off the trick of normal  ,psychology is missing out on the core simple, redundant, internal thoughts that make normal thought possible. If psychology knew all of our internal thoughts Temple Grandin's Thinking in Pictures would be seen as pre school book.   If science knew all of those thoughts it would also gain the intimate knowledge it needs to figure out people,  it could easy test ,point out and even cure the serial killer, the OCD person the manic depressive, the narcissistic person and yes autism. These thoughts explain genius, savants, social butterflies well adjusted people basically everything psychology . Too bad all of these simple (too simple)  ideals float over the heads of the very professional that will never even have the chance or make the chance to learn what we did by trial and error. I guess I should not gripe no professional yet has ever stopped to think and question the success of our success. Unless there is some miracle  of misguided  ignorance our obvious secerts will remain obvious and oblivious. Meanwhile long live the robot it is the best hope helping of autism at the moment.

Susan Boyle

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=VSrAJsWvEIc


Susan Boyle - One of Autism's Finer Moments.  


Talk of the Wizard of Oz (Autism's Bill Stillman) would be and probably is beaming when he seen this 2009 edition of Britain's got Talent. I just seen the clip for the first time and was stunned autistically as I realized Susan, like me and many others absently molded autism to some sort of success. Her whole performance was autism 101. Of course, no Autism professional would have a clue to all of her body language and odd behavior and not simply label it 'odd'. She did a stunning performance of -I Dreamed a Dream from Les Miserbales.  It had the audience standing in ovation.  This was her Splinter skill, music and performance. 

At the start of her performance she was seemingly trying too hard to be coy and for sure Autism Picture Thoughts were having a very hard time coming up with the word village. You could see her eyes were OFF and she was 'looking into space" but, her minds eye those brain generated pictures were working to come up with the word 'village'. At the end of the performance she was off base and started leaving the stage- that would be autism working at its best. Our mind is not trained to ,get it right.

Susan like many of us were old enough NOT to be blessed with Rain man Era Autism antics and a you can see we might be the Village Idiot in some respects but we DO find a way to shine! If Psychology and research could follow her picture thoughts they would be so stunned to discover if they could follow her thoughts they are not retard thoughts as she (we present) just the obvious to us slow motion ,long hand version of human thought. If only psychology knew the inside information we do or could figure it out or even more to the point admit to those of us that have they would know the next 1000 chapters in psychology.  

Of course contemporary autism is a royal mess funded and buzzworded to death and the sad part is the real down to earth autism got lost in the translation. Also lost was key to humanity and the next 1000 chapters in psychology.  These chapters are not discoverable as what we do is the long hand version of normal human thought. Normal humans think in often flawed short cut thoughts -don't know it- and then ignorantly try to figure out the impossible (to them).    If all of these secrets and long hand thoughts were known psychology would be solved and mankind would be humbled to the point of tears.

One more OH NO!

I just hobbled out of the hot tub at the Bath house and those that know me ,knowing me to hobble is the key word. I was followed out of the tub by a foot doctor who exclaimed , “How are you walking dude?” Sitting in the tub with a bunch of naked guys you never know who is the dog catcher or the doctor. This time the foot doctor seen me and was horrified as much as intrigued. He was amazed at the different appendages hanging out of my ankles and the numb ’split’ heals of Planter Fractious. He said he never seen a case that bad and it was on both legs. We went to his room and he done an exam and asked the obvious question,” What drugs are you on? “ None I answered truthfully and I learned over the years telling anyone of the autism pain tolerance is just worthless.

The pain tolerance is never mentioned at any medical school , the last time we were written about in a medical journal was the 1960’s . The late Dr. Rimland (Rain Man, Movie- father of contemporary autism) knew of it but refused to talk about it as for one it would make his leaky gut theory he championed a moot point. Old Autism brochures once wrote “the autism Child would not turn to get comfortable in mothers arms.” They would fall and get right back up again and not present as hurt. Autism kids were also NOT noted for black and blue spots. Dentists visits were often noteworthy when we had a cavity and the dentist had a pick directly in our cavity and we showed no reaction. Most people would have been threw the roof! Yours truly had several experiences,like that. I went to a children’s dentist and he said on one visit” look Martha here is another one that doesn’t feel pain.” He evidently had a number of us.

Well back  to the foot doctor, this poor guy had to assume I was on drugs to the hilt as he did his exam. He was tracing the split heal muscles up to the knees ,I never did much in the terms of showing pain I have found over the years even my family doctor didn’t believe the pain tolerance- but like Emergency  Room personal and X-Ray techs They were often perplexed with the horrible x rays and very odd reactions to exams. What medical school has ever taught a thing or has even been able to train their students on our condition? This medical doctor was just the same perplexed confused person everyone else has been. He took a few cell phone pictures of my obvious faults and helped me up.

As is typical in the baths it is don’t ask don’t tell all over again. I have no idea if he was a local doctor or out of town . Many patrons there are in the closet so things like getting a name or a business card are not likely. Still the fact he was so intrigued and caught up in the issue demonstrates , I present pretty horrible if strangers come up and are a gasp of the obvious. Hopefully when my life changes  in a few weeks and I'm off my feet things will return to normal. They will have to as no medical professional will humble themselves to meet the odd man out.
