What's the end result- good day or bad? Carole bad day. The pain in my mother's elbow is persisting. I gave her the medication and a couple of Ibuprofen. There isn't any swelling and she can use it. This is not a new problem. It is hard to tell without an MRI if it is her shoulder (likely), tendinitis, or arthritis. Other than that she is kinda comatose today. Comastose in the sense she isn't talking and has that dull, I am not really here, look on her face. She is having extreme difficulty walking. She is looking down and more or less to her right.

This year’s topic is Medical Home, providing all children with a medical home. What is a medical home? It is a continuous, comprehensive, family-centered, coordinated, compassionate, and culturally effective way of providing medical care. OK, that’s fine, but what does that mean to you as a parent, as a caregiver, or as a child? The American Academy of Pediatrics has made available PDF documents for you to learn more about medical homes. In the documents, you learn about what to expect from a pediatric team, how to make medical home improvements, and how to work with your medical team. Children can learn about their role in health care. Medical Home for Parents Medical Home for Kids Healthy Living The AA...

The theme chosen by the World Health Organization for World Health Day 2008 is Protecting Health from Climate Change, and LLL and WABA put together a statement showing how breastfeeding protects both health and the environment. In particular, the statement notes how: ~ Unlike formula-feeding, breastfeeding requires no manufacturing plants ~ No packaging for breast milk is needed ~ Both corn- and soy-based formulas require heavy use of farmland for feeding, grazing and harvesting ~ The livestock sector generates significant greenhouse gas emissions and is a major source of land and water degradation...
