I am making this note and dating it because I believe this will eventually come out to all of us.
What possible reason could Trump have for giving away the farm. AKA, agreeing with dictators across the planet, while picking fight with our friends and allies?
It seems clear to me, that Russia aka Putin, has been grooming Donald Trump for decades for just this role; to install him as the leader the United States of America. He, Putin, recognized in Trump many years ago, a "useful idot" and he has succeeded.
Putin lied yesterday at the press conference when he said he did not know Trump was in Russia during the beauty pagent…. Trump was working closely at that time with PUtin's right hand man to arrange a meeting with PUtin, or at least to get him to attend the Miss Universe pagent. This is all documented in the book Russian Roulette.
Today I am hearing commentary that Trump is suffering from dementia. IN addition to his narcissistic personality disorder, Donald Trump is not of right mind. If that is indeed the case, then his close friends, family and advisors, are standing by and allowing a man without the means or the wherewithal to handle the job he was elected to perform. Those close to him who do not take action to protect this democracy, are indeed complicit in Trump's actions. Demented or not, Trump is now a simple puppet for the Russian autocrat.
Not only the close advisor and family can be held accountable, but the millions of voters who supported him without bothering to look at the man, his business practices, and his moral character. When I hear the Russian plan was to divide and conquer us, I cannot help but say they have been successful, And while I know that as a nation we must stand together, I cannot forgive or forget the people I thought I knew who chose a man like Donald Trump as their leader.
IF EVER THERE WAS TIME TO REMOVE REPUBLICANS FROM OFFICE. Now is the time. When your loyalty is to a party and not to the country you are not fit to serve.
OUr three branches of government must stand, we have checks and balances in place to protect us from a Donald Trump. It is time to put those checks and balances in place for the sake of our children and grandchildren and the planet.

Starting week 3 of the plant based diet. We are both enjoying eating this way. It is a lot of work, prepping and cooking all those veggies. But we are both feeling better for it.
On JUly 4, I was in my sewing room when my cell phone rang. I looked at the number and it was from Cleveland. Since I do not know anyone in Cleveland I considered just declining the call but for some reason I answered. ON the other end I here. "Is this Sherri?" my response yes... "This is Dr. Esselstyn"
I had sent an email to his web site a few days prior asking a question but received an auto "out of office" reply. So here he was calling me. He suggested I take the phone to where my spouse was and turn on the speaker. Which I did and Dr. E talked to us for about 30 minutes about his program. That motivated both Paul and I and we have been Vegans ever since...
I look online and I ordered a cookbook, but I also enjoy coming up with my own recipes using the flavors we like. So far, the vegan chili, the rice and beans, and the Big Bean soup are our favorites. Today I got gutsy and tried some desert recipes. The lemon cupcakes were a bust, but the fudgy brownies are pretty good.
Tonight after supper we even went for a short walk at the Reservoir with Sadie... I canot walk very far or very fast, as I am only a few weeks out from my cardiac event. But I find myself getting stronger every day and hope to continue on the course.
I am looking forward to some improved cholesterol numbers when I have my next lab work done, and in the end I hope to be able to drop 20 to 30 lbs. MY blood sugars are down, my blood pressure is down, and I am feeling pretty good.

Still breathing
July 2, 2018
WE spent three days in Knoxville TN last week for a deposition in a law suit. Then arrived home on Thursday late afternoon. Shortly after getting home as I was out watering my tomato plants I began to have chest pain.
Went inside to take a Nitro.. Did not help, took another still no relief. Called my spouse who had driven to Sam's to pick up his new glucose meter. He headed right home. but told me to call 911 as he was about 10 minutes away.
So I did. Took them about 8 rings to answer the phone, and in the end my husband beat the squad to my front door. But when they got here they loaded me in the ambulance, then spent about 5 min in my driveway hooking me to monitors and starting an IV line. All the while I am in severe pain.
Finally got to the hospital which is only about 10 blocks from my house. And spent another 15 min there before getting some pain relief. Of course they admitted me. And the follow up labs showed heart damage.. So next day I had a cardiac cath with placement of 2 stents. Recover for two days and released on Sunday evening.
I am probably lucky to be alive as this was my 3rd cardiac event. But home now and determined to turn things around. Starting the Esselstyn diet, which is all plant based. No animal products or even vegetable oils. This is supposed to reverse my heart disease. I hope so because I am hungry all the time. Without the proteins and fats, to fill your stomach you never feel satisfied. But I am going to stick with it,,, as I haven't much choice, I have had too much heart damage and this is the only plan I have seen that offers me hope. -+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++It worked for Bill Clinton.
