I'm so sorry you fall a lot!!!

Thanks, I say it's because I have big feet.

Thanks, I say it's because I have big feet.

For me, I say it's because I have poor balance and depth perception. Doesn't matter why. It's aggravating!!!

I have poor depth perception because I am far sighted in one eye, and near sighted in the other. It does help me forgo the need for glasses except for the tiniest writing.

I attended my first Native American Pow wow last Sept. I wanted to learn beyond what my mentor had taught me. As a result I subscribed to the Pow Wow thread and I get updates sometimes 2-3 a day about culture, etc. I love to learn and eagerly digest everything I can read.

The most recent update concerned a show on PBS regarding Native Americans who recruited to branches of the service in numbers far greater than any other groups of people,to fight in wars against foreign countries. Native Americans have not received the best treatment from the government but they are guardians of the earth and did not want foreign concerns trashing it .

Certainly school hadn't taught me any of this. Nor anything else about Natives Americans. Much like the Black women who could out perform computers to arrive at safe co-ordinates for the early astronauts' successful missions. (Hidden Figures- the movie left everyone in the audience saying "we never knew that."

Never knew of Native soldiers fighting for our country. I did know of the Navaho code writers that left the Germans stumped. This even though our government put natives in schools and wanted them to forget their language, and culture. Forunately they never did.

PS certainly makes me wonder what else was kept from the population. I do know that two Jews were responsible for creating vaccines to prevent polio- one that could even be given as a couple drops on a sugar cube. _ A G*d send for a terrified kid(me) that was afraid to get any shot period.

Did you ever have to stitch her? How old is she? She's a tough ol' bag

Not this time. Her wounds are talon punctures and not rips.
She got 5 stitches the attack before.
She got Stockholm Hoof Tar the attack before that.
She's two years old.

I kinda doubt it now .. Went out to clean no sign of #6 others are out and the 2 blue cochin

If she got killed by something what do you think it was?
