May I ask why?
The song was new and often played in radio at the same time when I`ve got a very old cat in my care. It was not one of my cats but I cared for this old neglected tomcat for 4 months at the end of his life.
He was suffering kidney failure that got worse from day to day. Every evening I left him in his room alone I feared that he will be dead in the morning so that: If tomorrow never comes .... ( for him )
You understand ?
He died, but peacefully and naturally. I think he knows that he was very much loved at the end of his life.

I just bumped into the Dad of a former friend of my son's. The boys used to play in the same football team until they were about 9.

The Dad has had a really rough time. He got sick after eating reheated rice from a Chinese takeaway meal and this led to a muscle wasting problem. The muscle wastage led to a heart attack and also has left him with one arm that is partially paralysed. It is so shocking; this guy was a fitness fanatic and spent loads of time at the gym. I had heard that reheating rice was likely to make you sick, but had no idea it could get this bad.

So... DON'T REHEAT RICE! EVER!!!!

[I've been working 12hr days and the situation with my father has been a nightmare!

Good luck Todd! I will be praying for you and father. I’ve been there before and the mental stress is exhausting. Hope you can find a couple minutes in the day just for you!

What a sad and strange story ! I often eat reheated rice but not from a Chinese takeaway.

It’s done! My operation is cancelled. [emoji322][emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]

I have to go back if things deteriorate, but otherwise it is up to me to keep up with the exercise and swimming to keep my shoulder moving.

I am not free of pain, but I am not in agony either and the range of movement has improved to the point where getting dressed isn’t anything like the problem it was. At one stage I couldn’t do up my bra and I had to wear cardigans because I couldn’t put a jumper on over my head.

I’m so happy and I know that’s a huge weight off your mind! You can do it!

That’s crazy!!! Thank you for telling me!!! I will never do that again[emoji21][/QUOTE]

Apparently cooked rice is the perfect breeding ground for Salmonella and other nasties. I had read that you shouldn’t reheat. After seeing a survivor of probably the most extreme reaction, I definitely won’t be reheating it again!

Sounds like a nasty case of food poisoning. Coincidentally, I just watched this yesterday -


Hmmm ...
Celery, mushrooms, carrot, chicken...

I use turkey and chicken mince which I make into a pasta sauce or curry in bulk and freeze with the above ingredients in the sauce. I ain’t died yet.

I think the problem is probably people not chilling food rapidly after cooking it and not reheating food to a high enough temperature.

Reheating rice to a high enough temperature to kill nasties is harder... and a takeaway is probably sitting around for too long before being put in the fridge.
