Our town has always been known as a baby boom town – there are a lot of teenage pregnancy here – in fact when I first arrived here some 10 yrs ago, I had mistaken a young mother for a babysitter. I had told the spouse that the babysitter wasn’t the best because she [...]

My daughter’s doctor and 4 others are leaving town by the end of this year or early next year, thus leaving 1000s of people without a family doctor. It’s very disturbing how these doctors come and goes when the kids or family had already settled in with them and build a repertoire and warmth [...]

Another potential use for it is to fight off cancer and now it’s getting its first public trial. Members of a popular resveratrol forum, imminst.org, are chipping in to provide [...]

I’ve had asthma pretty much since I was born and unlike most people I know, I never grew out of it during my teen years. In my case it’s here to stay and it really sucks. I got switched off Ventolin though, they say that can be hard on the airways with extended [...]

As most know by now, my wife had been in for an operation a month ago, followed up by an emergency surgery 10 days later due to some complications. She’s been back home for 2 weeks and getting better every day, but she isn’t coming in to the store very much so far. [...]

Things were going fine for Jan during the last week, up until around 1am Wednesday morning. It started with stomach cramps and feeling like a lot of gas buildup. Then a half hour later she started vomiting and that continued all night, every 15 minutes or so. I took her to hospital [...]

After a long sleepless night in the hospital she would have begged to come home if the Dr. had so much as hinted that she would need to stay longer. Good news though, as soon as the Doc came in to see us he said she could go home today if she wanted to, [...]

There’s a lot of diet pills such as lipovox floating around the market out there and not all of them are as good as they’re cracked up to be. Before taking any kind of unprescribed medication it’s always best to do lots of research in advance and talk to your doctor anyway. It [...]

Today she’s doing much better. She’s starting to eat again and can sit up on her own although with a lot of difficulty. Apparently the night shift nurses tonight aren’t so good as the ones who were on during the day. They’re not helping her to sit up or walk, even though [...]
