Hi all. Just a long overdue update to let you know that I'm still around, though unfortunately not baking.
After my hands were operated on early last year I had just started getting back to baking when in June I came down with my first ever case of Psoriasis. It started out as a few patches of Plaque Psoriasis but over a couple of months it developed into a very severe case of Erythrodermic Psoriasis which is covering about 95% of my body, literally from the top of my head to the tips of my toes. Naturaly I can't risk the chance of a yeast infection, let alone introduce the massive amounts of skin I am shedding into some dough.
At the moment I am undergoing intensive long term Narrowband UVB radiation therapy which is supposed to kill off the rogue T cells in my immune system. Basically a controlled sunburn three times a week, not sure if the treatment isn't worse than the complaint. I'm not allowed out in sunlight, so basically I've been a bookworm/hermit.
Anyway enough of that. It's nice to see the forum reasonably active with a few familiar names still leading the charge. Keep up the good work.
Kind regards to all,
Bill

Hi Bill
i was wondering not long ago what has happen to you and asking TP if maybe she knows anything.
Nice to hear from you but shame about your health problems :(
As TP mentioned look for alternative options, my wife have very bad migraines for years and conventional medicine failed 100% then she went to naturophat and lat 18 months were very different experienc with some months being 100% migrane free which did not happen in years before that. Also my son had 2 wards (sp?) in his foot normal doctors said they have to cut it out and then burn out the area, well we took him to same naturophat and with use of only herbal drops 6 weeks later wards were gone on its own.
but i believe you have to find really good one as there are many fools that claim to be naturophats but don't really have a clue. i can't remember where you located but if you in vitoria i can give you details to that guy.
anyway glad to see you around, look after yourself and drop in here bit more :)
Regards

Bill,
I too was wondering whether you were still baking. Glad to hear you're still around, sad to hear that you're body is not behaving. All the best and get well soon.

A quick 'Bill44' search reveals 7 pages of classic sourdough observations. I think that you will remain a solid part of this forum for years to come, whether you post or not. I hope all goes well for you Bill. I have kept the last of my stock of your handmade lames for myself. They are a priceless example of baker innovation and not settling for mass-market industry solutions. Excellent stuff. Graham
Take care
regards Normbake
This baking is sure addictive.
