The baby is breathing! The lungs are not yet fully developed but the cry shows the lungs are working. Breath comes in and out.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;This is an important thought to remember for the future development and move into the Third Stage of Life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;All parts of the new baby then slowly develop and if there is normal growth, all will reach their full potential.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;Some will achieve higher skills, but all parts of the body need full nourishment and exercise.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;The saying is true, &amp;ldquo;use it or loose it&amp;rdquo;. Any portion that is not used will fail to full develop.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;The caring love provided by the Parents and Family is also an important factor in the child&amp;rsquo;s development. Ongoing love, shelter and food are important throughout the development of this Second Stage. Those who do not have these will have their growth delayed and stunted.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;As growth takes place it is important that there is no dangerous substances brought into the body that will delay and/or damage the body.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;After a lengthy time it will be time to make some decisions about the Third Stage of Life. As the physical body will die there must be a spiritual input and seeding similar to the physical process that takes place in the start of the First Stage of Life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;This time the individual will have the choice as to the spiritual family they pass on to during the Third Stage of Life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;For those who want to go the Heaven as found in the Bible it is important they realise they need to allow first the Word of God and the truths found in it to grow in their lives and then seek to have the Father God enter their lives by asking Jesus to be their Saviour. Details of this can be found in the Bible and is called being &amp;ldquo;Born Again&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;Then they can look forward to having a loving person waiting for them as the baby did at the first birth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;As the newborn baby went to a predetermined family so it will be when the physical body dies and the spiritual portion passes on to the Third Stage of Life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;Those who fail to make that decision will be default have some other spiritual entity develop in their lives and then when the physical body dies be accepted in to a different Third Stage of Life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 19px;"&gt;We are all given a free choice as to what we decide to do and to accept the consequences of those decisions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;For further detail read the &lt;a href="http://watkinson.co.nz/Life_stages/Story.html"&gt;Three Stages of Life&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href="http://watkinson.co.nz/Life_stages/Descriptive_Notes.html"&gt;Descriptive Notes&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8898589687177372438-1310440409132630685?l=rotatorcuffrepair.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://rotatorcuffrepair.blogspot.com/feeds/1310440409132630685/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://rotatorcuffrepair.blogspot.com/2010/09/development-in-second-stage-of-life.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8898589687177372438/posts/default/1310440409132630685'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8898589687177372438/posts/default/1310440409132630685'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://rotatorcuffrepair.blogspot.com/2010/09/development-in-second-stage-of-life.html' title='Development in the Second Stage of Life'/><author><name>alanwnz</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08223318515996179227</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_PZdcKSAKKXk/S8aiFy1Ml7I/AAAAAAAAAAM/IN9Wt5kVxwk/S220/Photo+on+2010-04-15+at+14.58.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8898589687177372438.post-7243152102868752854</id><published>2010-09-02T21:21:00.001+12:00</published><updated>2010-09-02T21:21:53.111+12:00</updated><title type='text'>Preparation for the Second Stage of Life</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class='posterous_autopost'&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;There is a great deal of preparation that can only be achieved in the First Stage, in the Womb, before a baby can move into the Second Stage of Life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial; color: #262626;"&gt;Michele Szekely&amp;nbsp;states in &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.catholic.org/featured/headline.php?ID=6093"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial; color: #0000f1;"&gt;http://www.catholic.org/featured/headline.php?ID=6093&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: Arial;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 19px; color: #262626;"&gt;&amp;ldquo;In the very first stage, there is an amazing growth, it is absolutely phenomenal what happens during these 9 months.

The very first stage is the time when we were in the womb of our mother, for what is, usually, a period of 9 months;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 13.0px 0.0px; line-height: 19.0px; font: 13.0px Georgia; color: #333233;"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"&gt;In the very first stage, there is an amazing growth, it is absolutely phenomenal what happens during these 9 months. Our time in the womb is very vulnerable and requires lots of love, attention and caring and the biggest threat of all is when the mother forgoes her main responsibility to protect and nurture the baby within her body. The first stage is a preparation for the second stage.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 13.0px 0.0px; line-height: 19.0px; font: 13.0px Georgia; color: #333233;"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"&gt;Regarding the very first stage, let me tell you about this set of twins, one boy and one girl, that were happily growing in their mother's womb. But one day, the little girl said: "I think there is more. I have this idea that we are going to go through a big change soon and we will go somewhere else". The little boy says: "What are you talking about? I don't want to go anywhere. We are fine here, we are doing just great, we have everything we need, we can hear our mother's voice and I love it here, I don't want any change!" The little girl says: "You must be right" and grows quiet. But after a little while, she starts again: "There is going to be a change, I can feel it. And we should not be afraid, it is completely normal, there is a sort of difficult passage but there is much more afterwards and it is beautiful and bountiful, in ways that we cannot even begin to imagine now". The little boy is annoyed and says " Leave it to a girl to always want more! I'm telling you that we should just enjoy what we have now. Isn't this wonderful? We are safe, we are fed regularly, we are comfortable and did you notice that she is constantly talking about us? She is constantly bragging about us to everyone she meets. I just love it! I hear her voice and it brings peace and joy to my heart and it puts me to sleep too. Don't talk anymore about any changes, is that clear?" The little girl does not say one more word. But a few minutes later, the little boy adds, in a slow and hesitant manner: "The truth is that, if you are right, and maybe you are, and I have wondered about this, but what it means is that, one day" and his voice&amp;nbsp;gets dreamy, "it means that very soon we will get to see her face and she will look at us and smile&amp;hellip;"&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 13.0px 0.0px; line-height: 19.0px; font: 13.0px Georgia; color: #333233;"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"&gt;I hope you find this interesting.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8898589687177372438-286411092950004576?l=rotatorcuffrepair.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://rotatorcuffrepair.blogspot.com/feeds/286411092950004576/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://rotatorcuffrepair.blogspot.com/2010/08/first-stages-of-life.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8898589687177372438/posts/default/286411092950004576'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8898589687177372438/posts/default/286411092950004576'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://rotatorcuffrepair.blogspot.com/2010/08/first-stages-of-life.html' title='First Stages of Life'/><author><name>alanwnz</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08223318515996179227</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_PZdcKSAKKXk/S8aiFy1Ml7I/AAAAAAAAAAM/IN9Wt5kVxwk/S220/Photo+on+2010-04-15+at+14.58.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8898589687177372438.post-5145206577976645936</id><published>2010-08-23T13:57:00.001+12:00</published><updated>2010-08-23T13:57:52.284+12:00</updated><title type='text'>What are your thoughts on GDI?

But a few minutes later, the little boy adds, in a slow and hesitant manner: "The truth is that, if you are right, and maybe you are, and I have wondered about this, but what it means is that, one day" and his voice&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; color: #333333; line-height: 19px;"&gt;gets dreamy, "it means that very soon we will get to see her face and she will look at us and smile&amp;hellip;"&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;/blockquote&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; line-height: 19px; color: #333333;"&gt;I hope you find this interesting.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8898589687177372438-1694643515475095039?l=rotatorcuffrepair.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://rotatorcuffrepair.blogspot.com/feeds/1694643515475095039/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://rotatorcuffrepair.blogspot.com/2010/08/first-stage-of-life.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8898589687177372438/posts/default/1694643515475095039'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8898589687177372438/posts/default/1694643515475095039'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://rotatorcuffrepair.blogspot.com/2010/08/first-stage-of-life.html' title='First Stage of Life'/><author><name>alanwnz</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08223318515996179227</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_PZdcKSAKKXk/S8aiFy1Ml7I/AAAAAAAAAAM/IN9Wt5kVxwk/S220/Photo+on+2010-04-15+at+14.58.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8898589687177372438.post-8784650540840622764</id><published>2010-04-06T19:52:00.000+12:00</published><updated>2010-04-06T21:33:40.249+12:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ultrasonography'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rotator cuff injury'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rotator cuff radiography'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='chronic shoulder impingement'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rotator cuff repair'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rotator cuff impingement'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MRI'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rotator cuff surgery'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rotator cuff injuries'/><title type='text'>Should I have Rotator Cuff Surgery?</title><content type='html'>&lt;!--StartFragment--&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:14.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;font-family:Arial"&gt;If you are young and there is a complete torn rotator cuff muscle or tendon, then Surgery is the best option.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:14.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;font-family:Arial"&gt;How does one know if there is a complete tear?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:14.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;font-family:Arial"&gt;The only way is to have either an &lt;a href="http://rotatorcuffradiography.blogspot.com"&gt;MRI&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="http://rotatorcuffradiography.blogspot.com"&gt;US scan&lt;/a&gt;, both of these will show rotator cuff tears.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:16.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align: none;text-autospace:none"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:14.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size: 16.0pt;font-family:Arial;mso-bidi-font-family:Arial"&gt;&lt;a href="http://rotatorcuffradiography.blogspot.com"&gt;Rotator cuff radiography&lt;/a&gt; will not show tears of the muscles or tendons.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:16.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align: none;text-autospace:none"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:14.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size: 16.0pt;font-family:Arial;mso-bidi-font-family:Arial"&gt;If a rotator cuff tendon has been torn completely, it usually will not heal fully without surgery.
