Suffer a stroke and left paralysed.
It would depend on many things: - whether the doctor/hospital had a copy of your Advance Directive ("Living Will") on file - If so, whether they consulted it and considered it to be applicable to your current circumstances Note that many hospitals have their own forms for this and may nto accept it in ay other format. A Health Care Proxy, appointing someone else to make medical decisions on your behalf when you are unable to speak for yourself, is arguably more important that an Advanced Directive. As it would fall to such a person to ensure the terms of your Advance Directive were followed. -

UK Mohammed Fahir Amaaz & Muhammad Amaad on Trial over Manchester Airport Clash
Not when there is an actual court case to report on. Seven separate news stories on the BBC in the past week or so reporting from the courtroom. What would you like them to say for today when there is no court in session? -

best pain killer over the counter
For knee pain, antiinflamatories like naproxen, ibuprofen, diclofenac etc are usually best but are contraindicated in some people e.g. those with gastritis/ulcers/other GI diseases and kidney disease, or bleeding disorders. Need to be cautious if also on any type of blood thinner. There are also injections that can be done in doctor's office that often help e.g. steroid or HA. -

The Expat Paradox: An Appraisal of Westerners in Thailand
Can't paint a whole population with one brush. I lived/worked in Thailand for 11 years, I know many expats that don't fit into the stereotypes posted. -

Pattaya Condos: History and Future
Correction, you answered my Wongamat example incorrectly in another post, while also showing no understanding of the point I was making. Of course it is supply and demand, but supply and demand for the product you are interested in buying or selling. An oversupply of X is meaningless if you are in the market for Y. What's the supply, and demand of Y? That's what is important if you are buying or selling Y. And, once again, Y is NOT all condos for sale. I've commented on the America market 'bubble' on other threads, using my personal experience. Where I was living it was madness, with prices going up, literally weekly. A property would go on the market on a weekend, offers were to be submitted the following Wednesday, when the seller would select the best offer. Properties were getting 6 or more offers--I know because my future spouse was trying to buy a condo at the time. To have any chance of being the winning offer, you had to bid over the asking price but the tricky part was how much. Some buyers included letters pleading to be selected. So crazy--with totally unrealistic prices. I bought a condo in 2009 in the US in a foreclosure, after the bubble had burst, or, perhaps in hindsight was still bursting. The previous owner had paid $300,000something for it--a small 1 bedroom condo! I got it for $170,000 and thought I had bought a bargain. Yaa me! Instead, the value fell to $160,000. I didn't want to sell at a loss so when I moved to Thailand in 2010 I rented it. By 2012, the value had finally recovered enough that I could sell at a small profit, as I did not like being an absentee landlord. The condo today has a value of about $275,000 according to Zillow. What that shows is, like the stock market, real estate prices can go up and down. But, over time, also like the stock market, the trend is upward. In 2012, the year I sold my US condo, the average price of a property sale was $288,225. Today, the average price is $369,147. Before you once again post that you can make more money with other investments let me once again say that for me, it's not always about the money when it comes to my home. -
