Publisher's Note - Summer 2009

It may look like "Freedom 75" with all that's going in this good old world, but I'm grateful that I still enjoy publishing the magazine. I hope everyone enjoys the Comox Valley this summer: what a great time of year!

I have just finished a bout with plantar fasciitis that started sometime in the late Fall. I must admit that I have much more compassion for people suffering chronic pain. I never realized how painful it was, and how our ability to cope wanes as ongoing pain wears us out both physical and mentally. A lesson was learned: have more compassion for others that are suffering from some form of chronic pain, as sometimes it appears that the person is not ill.

I must thank Lynn Brandon for her help using a new treatment called Shock Wave therapy, which I read about in the last issue. As I write this, I'm seventy-five percent pain free and getting better everyday.

I would also like to let my online readers know that I have just launched a Business Directory: it is linked to the magazine and will hopefully help you locate the businesses or people you need in the valley.

I hope you enjoy all the articles in this issue, from Herbal Medicine in the Garden and So You Want to Race, to Caring for Aging Relatives.
