When I was living in a subterranean shit-hole with damp plasterboard walls which wouldn't even hold wall anchors I managed to get away with using copious quantities of fast-setting epoxy resin and duct-taping the supports into place.
Once the glue had set and cured I then screwed the shelf into place. Mind it was only about 4 feet long but it did hold a goldfish bowl (goldfish included) and a few books without collapsing. You might want to give epoxy a go, it really is very resistant (used to use it to build mortars and compressed-air cannons when I was a wee lad into home-synthed high explosives and the like).

How did it go with your interview?

I've got two interviews lined up - one tomorrow and one on Wednesday. Could do with some diazepam! 8(

Went fairly well actually! Great thing was the diazepam stopped me stuttering and getting a bit shaky as I tend to do in a nervous situation. Not in a serious way but everybody gets nervous like. Just hoping the diazepam didn't make me ramble too much shite, but it seemed coherent at the time and it was the night before so I doubt it. Fingers crossed as that was my second in a week but first in a year.

Good luck to you with yours! Always good to get some cash flow going!
 
I'm working on a song at the mo...I'm not using any drum loops/shortcuts...My first ever tune built entirely from the bottom up. I've only got about a minute of it atm but what do you guys reckon? I'm trying to go for a selected ambient worksesque sound but obviously not just a straight copy.

O dear... I am on a surgical ward, and there is a strange (can't think of a better/ more appropriate word) guy with some sort of other problems on here who instead of using his buzzer just screams NURSE. He seems very confused and abusive, I think it might be alzheimers. I think that might just be one of the worst diseases ever... I wish he wasn't on this ward, not for my sake, but for his and the nurses sake. He needs one on one attention, and the nurses can't cope, and it"s just distressing him more.

Am I alone in thinking I would rather just be put out of my misery once I had degenerated to the point I remembered nothing, and only lived to ruin other's memories of me?

not nice dude, i guess its all circumstantial, i mean if my life was showing no improvement then yrs id go to Switzerland
 
This guy is losing my sympathy rapidly, or rather it now lies almost exclusively with his careers and those around him. He has no idea what's going on and doesn't care... He has been screaming all night non-stop, and if he isn't responded to within 30 seconds he destroys anything to hand. I really admire people who can do this for years without snapping.

IS ANYBODY THERE
HULLO

I have been reading about and it seems the standard practice is just to super medicate these people so they are basically zombies... This seems a way of keeping them alive to clear our own consciences. You wouldn't let a dog live like this, so why a human? I know I am a horrible person for thinking these things, but he is basically just a walking talking torture device. He is never going to get better, and I hate the idea of people up and down the country going through this. What a conundrum... What are we going to do with a rapidly aging population who are living longer with increasing rates of this disease?

BCF I don't think I'd go to Switzerland, that Terry Pratchett program scared the shit out of me. It didn't look like a humane death at all. I think I would get a good friend to shoot a ridiculous cocktail of downers into my canula while I slept, or fill an entire room up with laughing gas and suffocate myself. The worst part of the dignitas clinic was that people with time left on the clock have to go there early to comply with the law, and for many of them it is the first time they've seen the beauty of Switzerland which makes dying early that much more traumatising. I would probably go through with it if it was the only option, but more of not to be a burden on my family who still have a life to live.

Who's to decide when another human being's life becomes worthless?

I can see what you mean about it seeming to an outside observer that people with severe Alzheimer's / dementia are kept alive at the cost of their dignity (and unfortunately there are probably numerous cases of this) but there are also those who experience moments of lucidity and wish to go on living despite the struggle against their condition.

I'm all for the choice to end your own life, as long as it's left down to the individual and not decided by anybody else. The implications of identifying people with certain conditions, however horrific these conditions may be, as a 'burden' are potentially very sinister indeed, as I'm sure you'll agree.

Good morning EADD. The sun is climbing in the sky and I have a cup of tea on the go. Rock and roll all the way.
 
Yes of course, I would never advocate anyone be pushed into dying whether by force or coercion. I just want it to become an accepted norm that when things get to the later stages people are able to and regularly do call it a day. I actually feel quite bad because this has made me realise I could never cope with caring for my parents for extended periods of time if they were like this, even though it would be my responsibility. Even the nurses are flipping out at this guy - apparently he hasn't stopped for 3 days straight now, although he did go out for a walk for 3 hours with his family yesterday. It doesn't help that he is also totally blind and incontenant.
 
It's not a great thought is it?

I had limited experience of this kind of thing with my dad, before he stopped returning my calls or answering the door a few years ago. His dementia was brought on by drinking (I'm 99% sure), but he was capable of being very engaging and aware for extended periods, as well as forgetting which decade it was, regressing to childhood, complete incoherence and the rest. I wasn't exactly caring for him as I was working full-time, but I was round at his place carrying out errands and the like regularly enough to get a glimpse into the amount of work that's involved in dealing with someone in the very early stages of such a condition, and it was beyond daunting.

I have nothing but admiration for the people who manage to do such things on a daily basis for an extended amount of time.
 
I think people like nurses are just wired differently to me. At least that's how it seems to be after so many hospital visits. It's only been one night, and I wouldn't complain if they gaffa taped his mouth up until he was lucid - a happy medium perhaps lol. That is probably just the extreme pain and sleep dep talking though.
