MY MOUTH WAS STUFFED WITH A MISCELLANY OF APPLIANCES...SUCKERS, BLOWERS, DRILLING MACHINES, METAL OBJECT D'ART, MIRRORS AND THE LIKE....AND THEN HE SAID TO ME ' MY GOODNESS YOU HAVE A LOT OF TEETH FOR SOMEONE OF YOUR AGE " NOW WHAT WOULD YOUR REPLY HAVE BEEN ? RAGE ? INDIGNATION ? WOULD YOU HAVE BEEN FLATTERED ? WOULD YOU HAVE TAKEN THAT AS A COMPLIMENT ? THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD POSSIBLY DO...ANY NOISES OF PROTEST I COULD HAVE MADE WERE CONVERTED INTO GURGLES AND SQUISHELLS. THERE WAS SO MUCH IRONMONGERY IN MY MOUTH , THERE WAS AN HYPODERMIC NEEDLE QUIVERING EXCITEDLY TWO CENTIMETRES FROM MY GUM, AND SO I DECIDED RATHER EXPEDIENTLY THAT I WOULD TAKE IT AS A COMPLIMENT AFTER ALL !!! AND AS I GAZED RATHER FORCIBLY AT THE PICTURES ON THE CEILING, AND I REALISED THAT THE PAIN I WAS EXPECTING WAS NOT FORTHCOMING, I UNCLENCHED MY FISTS, AND BEGAN TO THINK ABOUT THE DENTISTS I HAD KNOWN. ONE TENDS TO GET RATHER INTIMATE WITH ONE'S DENTIST DOES ONE NOT. I MEAN, THERE YOU ARE, WITHIN KISSABLE DISTANCE, EYEBALL ON EYEBALL, HE CAN SEE THE VERITABLE PORES ON YOUR NOSE, THE HAIRS ON YOUR TOP LIP.

YOU ARE VULNERABLE TO SAY THE VERY LEAST, THAT TITANIUM DRILL IS INCHES AWAY HELD IN HIS VERY STEADY HAND. THE HYPODERMIC NESTLES INCHES AWAY ON THAT STAINLESS STEEL TRAY, SO YOU ARE NOT IN A POSITION TO ARGUE ABOUT ANYTHING, LEAST OF ALL YOUR AGE !! IN FACT, YOU ARE SO VULNERABLE, SO SCARED, EVEN MORE THAN READY TO ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE HUNG BY A LENGTH OF DENTAL FLOSS !! ITS BETTER TO LET YOUR MIND WANDER. THINK ABOUT ANYTHING EXCEPT "DEATH BY DENTIST" THERE WAS DEAR OLD MR COOPER MADE HIS FIRST FORAY INTO MY MOUTH. HE WORKED FROM THE WARNBOROUGH MANSIONS OR WAS IT ANOTHER HIGH RISE SOMEWHERE IN BULAWAYO (THERE COULD NOT HAVE BEEN TOO MANY HIGH RISE BUILDINGS WAY BACK THEN THOUGH )!! THEN THERE WAS THAT CHARMING AMERICAN FROM THE SEVENTH DAY ADVENTISTS IN LIVINGSTONE ROAD, DR RUSSELL, I RATHER WANTED MY DAUGHTER TO MARRY HIS SON, BUT SOMEHOW THAT NEVER HAPPENED. THE SDAS MUST HAVE CHOSEN THEIR DENTISTS FOR THEIR LOOKS, COS DR FORDE WAS ALSO PRETTY COOL. AFTER THAT WE STARTED TO GO TO THE BEAUTIFUL CATHY. HE WHO MUST BE OBEYED, I SWEAR, USED TO CHIP HIS TEETH DELIBERATELY, JUST SO HE COULD ENSURE AN HALF HOUR OR SO STARING INTO CATHY'S BEAUTIFUL EYES OVER THE TOP OF HER PURE WHITE AND PROFESSIONAL MASK. WHEN CATHY CLOSED HER PRACTISE, WE AT A BIT OF A LOSS, WE TRIED DR MOHAMMED BUT HE LEFT TOO, AND SO ON AND SO FORTH. BUT I DIGRESS, DRAGGING MY FOCUS BACK TO THE SOUND OF THAT SCREECHING DRILL, AT LONG LAST ALL THE IRON MONGERY WAS REMOVED FROM MY MOUTH, AT LAST I COULD SPEAK, DEFEND MYSELF, MY AGE, MY PLETHORA OF DENTURES, BUT HE MUST HAVE BEEN RIGHT ABOUT MY AGE, COS I HAD FORGOTTEN WHAT IT WAS I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE INDIGNANT ABOUT AT ANY RATE..... ++++++ SMALLS HELP !!

It was first put down to the divorce and I was blamed for not controlling the child. We went to doctors specialist , psychologist, psychiatrists, educational psychiatrist. Had EGG & EEG done. Have tried all the medication which all had their own side effects, or my child was a zombie. He was then diagnosed with petty mal epilepsy his left side of the brain was underdeveloped to the right - which is the side for problem solving therefore when my child was tired, embarrassed or thought he would fail he would have a fit.... ie.. limb up a tree for hours, try and jump from a moving car, running into traffic, trying to hang himself, trying to cut his wrists, disappearing for hours on end, locking himself in rooms, running through glass etc. It has been 6 years now with school being very erratic. The child has since got into high school and I have been told he has psedoseizures (behaviour problems) not through not having carried on the discipline understanding etc. The doctors either have washed their hands of us or we are told they can no longer help. Im so distraught. Is there any one out there who has a similar case or some idea of how I can help my child to help himself and allow me and my family to have some peace. Whats so worrying is the one statement from a DR was" If we dont sort him out soon the child will become an unlawful citizen" Please someone Help.

House robberies is another area that the Trust has ventured into helping people who have been held at gun point. I would like to warn people the following: 1. Do not let any person onto your property who may claim to collect household items, checking borehole pumps etc. Have your domestics know if you have organised the like. 2. Do not let people who state they are police, CID or CIO onto your property without obtaining their ID's and phoning the respective station to get more information as to why they want to see you. It is your right to ask for ID's and if they do not produce it, you can ask them politely to leave until you see ID's and the reasoning behind them wanting to come into your property. DO NOT take things at face value anymore. 3. Know the police uniforms, what they look like etc. Too many people are unaware as to the uniform set up and open their homes to men claiming they are police, yet wearing the old uniforms. 4. When being confronted by men stating they belong to the above - always be polite, NOT aggressive, as this can cause more problems for you in the end. You must not antagonise the situation. 5. Make sure your perimeters are secure and then venture into your house alarms and burglar bars. You do not want the men to be inside your home, so by making the perimeters more secure, makes it harder for them to come inside, and by the time they are in your property, you should be able to control the situation from your home. If you know of anyone who has been hijacked and not contacted our office, please ask them to do so. WE have a support group that meets regularly every Third Tuesday of the month, at Toc H Hall, 18th Avenue / Matopos Road at 1:30 pm. For May it is on the 18th and all are welcome who has been hijacked. I am there to help you. Again, I appeal for anyone who can help in assisting the Trust with donations or help, to contact me, Tracey Burns on 011-701 323 or http://us.f304.mail.yahoo.com/ym/Compose?To=crime@mweb.co.zw ++++++ FOR SALE MICROWAVE Microwave in very good condition for sale.

The following dates have been selected to be cellphone boycott days. From 23 May 2004 up to 31 May 2004 14:00. The cellphone boycott week is aimed at forcing mobile operators to reduce their tariffs. You are expected to participate by taking the following actions. 1) Forward this email to everyone in Zimbabwe on your address book. 2) Use only the land line to phone and receive phone calls. 3) Switch off your cellphone for the whole week or as long as it is practical for you to do so.( Only during the week in question). 4) Phone your mobile operator if you can and complain about their astronomical tariffs.

I am trying to get in contact with him to pass on our condolences, and would like to know if anyone there has an address for him or his brothers, Merrick and Garry. You may give out my e-mail address if anyone has this information.
