We all donate at least $50 (the maximum we used to spend on one gift) to Craig’s memorial fund. With a niece and nephew [...] (Source: My journey with AIDS) My journey with AIDS blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=3048306 Wed, 02 Dec 2009 03:30:15 +0100 3048306 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=2075153&cid=t_159729_117_f&fid=36026&url=http%3A%2F%2Fblog.healthtalk.com%2Fzimney%2Fchristmas-trees-and-allergies-a-survival-guide%2F It’s been a wild and wooly holiday season in the greater Seattle area this year with temperatures below freezing and lots of snow on the ground - both distinctly unusual phenomena in this neck of the woods. The roads have often been impassable and there’ve been widespread power outages, which have caused us to spend a lot of time at home, hunkered down by the fire and the Christmas tree. This in turn led me to recall a piece I wrote a year ago about Christmas trees and allergies, which I thought I’d reprise for today, December 25. Both real and artificial Christmas trees can cause problems for some people with allergies. It’s not known how many people suffer from Christmas tree-related allergies. But if you find yourself with a runny nose, itchy eyes or maybe even i...

The one or two times each year that he needed to go farther, he would enlist someone to drive with him. So, I never pressed the issue of getting a cell phone for emergencies.   When I showed him my newest phone, he dismissed it saying,” The buttons are too small. I can’t read that screen. I’m hard of hearing, you know!” Then came the accident. Dad was driving back from the car dealership, took a wrong turn onto the New Jersey Turnpike, got lost and tried to find his way back through a neighborhood he had never seen before. Peering sideways to read the street signs, he veered into a parked car. Crash!! My father was a very lucky man. The owners of the parked car were looking out their kitchen window whe... 3GenFamily Blog blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=1094180 Fri, 14 Dec 2007 04:56:02 +0100 1094180 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=1075264&cid=t_159729_117_f&fid=36026&url=http%3A%2F%2Fblog.healthtalk.com%2Fzimney%2Fexercise-pedometers-make-perfect-presents%2F With the holiday season fast approaching, New Years’ resolutions can’t be far behind. And there’s never been a better time either to begin or to restart an exercise program. But if the word exercise turns you off, let’s just call it physical activity, even moderate physical activity would be perfectly acceptable. That’s because increased physical activity is associated with improvements in numerous health conditions, including heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, diabetes, osteoporosis, various cancers, and even depression. Because of the extensive health benefits of exercise, the Department of Health and Human Services and the U.S. Surgeon General recommend “physical activity most days of the week for at least 30 minutes for adults.” Yet despite all the evidence for h...
