Re: Princess Grace Hospital

After Theresa requested female-only care, a male staff member intruded on an intimate pre-op exam and stared at her. She described the male staff member as wearing a blonde wig.

One of the staff members at Princess Grace is Sarah Muirhead-Allwood.

Muirhead Allwood must be one of the highest status surgeons in the UK. He operated on Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip.

Is royal hip surgeon Black Stocking Sarah the same staff member who intruded on Theresa's exam? I don't know. But I do know Princess Grace Hospital's staff includes a trans-identified male who is a friend of the royal family. This is the man who's feelings are coming before the life of a woman.

Happy 78th Birthday, singer of the Scottish band, Middle of the Road, Sally Carr.

Carr was born Sarah Cecilia Carr on March 28, 1945 in Muirhead just outside Glasgow. Her father was a miner while her mother Cecilia was an invalid who was bedridden until her death at age 62. Carr has four brothers. Carr used to sing with the rest of her family around a piano when she was a bairn.

In the 1960’s Sally worked as a hairdresser and sang at both pubs and clubs in the evenings (she also worked as a waitress at various pubs). The first group Carr was a member of was The Southerners. Sally of course made her name with the aforementioned Middle of the Road, the group had a worldwide hit in 1970 with Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep, it is one of only fifty singles to have sold over 10 million physical copies, that’s 7 inch singles of course.

Following the death of her mother Cecilia, Carr found it difficult to sing the lines "Where's your Mama gone?" and "Woke up this morning and my Mama was gone" from that song

Sally married to the football pundit Chick Young in 1974, they separated in 1980 but remain friends. Sally and Chick had a son, couple had a son, Keith, in 1980, but he sadly lost his life in a motorbike accident in the year 2000.

Health and geology experts work together to improve early detection of oral cancer

University of Aberdeen experts across the institutes of Dentistry, Medical Sciences and The School of Geosciences will work together to improve the ability to detect malignant changes in precancerous lesions which can develop into oral cancer in a £250k project.

Oral cancer is a growing health problem that has seen little improvement in survival rates, mainly because of late diagnosis when the disease has progressed beyond a cure.

One of the main challenges clinicians face is the lack of ways to reliably predict malignant changes in oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) which carry a higher risk of developing into cancer.

The researchers will use techniques typically used in geological and material science to develop methods that can detect disease progression to help identify patients at early stages when the potential of a cure is more likely.

Funded by Cancer Research UK, the multidisciplinary team from the University of Aberdeen, including Dr Rasha Abu-Eid of the Institute of Dentistry, Professor Valerie Speirs from the Institute of Medical Sciences, and Dr Dave Muirhead, Head of the School of Geosciences, will work with specialists around the world including Professor WM Tilakaratne and Dr TG Kallarakkal from the University of Malaya in Malaysia, Professor BSMS Siriwardena  from the University of Peradeniya in Sri Lanka and Professor J James from Queen’s University Belfast, Northern Ireland.

Dr Rasha Abu-Eid explains: “In recent years we have seen a rise in oral cancer rates globally and despite advances in treatment, the mortality rates remain high.

“But like many other cancers, if oral cancer is caught early, there is a better chance of successful treatment. Therefore, identifying cancerous changes in premalignant lesions will help with early detection.

“Our work will use Raman Spectroscopy, a technique commonly used to identify the chemical composition and structure of minerals and materials, to generate chemical ‘fingerprints’ of tissues from the mouth. We will then use digital pathology to characterise the morphology of tissue images at the microscopy level. The two techniques will then be combined to identify profiles that can better predict the risk of developing cancer.

“This project represents a strong international multidisciplinary team that will tackle a growing global health problem. Methods used by the researchers will have wider applications for the study of different types of cancer. The findings will have great translational clinical potential that could aid in improving patient outcome.”

This study, to be conducted within the Aberdeen Cancer Centre, is expected to begin next month, and builds on pilot work funded by local charity Friends of ANCHOR.

Sarah-Jane Hogg, the charity’s director, added: “We’re very pleased to hear of the success Dr Abu-Eid has had in applying for significant grant funding for this important work into the early diagnosis of oral cancers. Early stage pilot research is the bedrock on which these vital, large-scale studies are built, which is why we commit up to £100,000 a year to fund up to seven such pilot projects.

“It’s thanks to the support of donors and fundraisers that we’re able to provide this funding, which has seen 79 projects supported since 2010. We’re fortunate in the North-east to have such pioneering minds right here in our city, whose work drives forward our understanding of the causes of cancers, and works to find better, faster ways to diagnose and treat these diseases.”

Sarah Muirhead’s “Scopophilia” at Leyden Gallery.

Now on view at Leyden Gallery in London, England is artist Sarah Muirhead’s beautiful solo exhibition entitled “Scopophilia.”

From Leyden Gallery: “For over a year, Muirhead has been working on a collection of images that explore the fetishization of people we adore or lust after.  Through a psychoanalytic lens, her paintings focus on depictions of professional extroverts, often performers, who offer an expanded creative sight by which to illustrate the feelings and desires of an introvert – namely the artist.”

“Scopophilia” will be on view until the 4th of November, 2017.

Sally still continues to sing as part of a new incarnation of Middle of the Road, although like The Bay city Rollers I think there are two different versions of the band touring. Her group have a facebook page Middle of the Road featuring Sally Carr here https://www.facebook.com/pg/Middle-of-the-Road-featuring-Sally-Carr-167838236585888/posts/
