Doctors Of Medicines

I went to the doctor today. I hate doctors. I think doctors are a hindrance to the body’s natural healing process. I hate doctors. I woke up with an unexplained sore ankle that hurt when I put pressure on it so my wife suggested that I paid the doctor a visit. “But honey, it’s just […]

Don’t Waste Food. Someone Somewhere Is Starving!

While out for an evening stroll, I had to duck to avoid getting wet by a sprinkler that was hydrating someone’s grass. I guess I was bored because I started thinking, “Look at that. Watering lawns while people in Africa are dying for lack of clean drinkable water.” Then I thought of all the ways […]

Be Heart Smart This Holiday Season

Last week, our babysitter’s dad had a heart attack. It was freaky as he is only about 50 years old, still young. While getting ready for work, he felt a bit dizzy and experienced tightness in his chest. The ambulance was called and he was found to have a 100% occlusion! One hundred percent! Any […]

For the most part, it is rather unknown and falls in the category of ‘rare diseases’. Fibromuscular dysplasia affects mainly […]

Food, Glorious Food!

Let’s get to the meat of this, pardon the pun. I love food. Gimme! Gimme! Burgers, Pizzas, especially pizzas, Thai, Chinese, (We are still talking about food), Caribbean, (oh I love me Island foods), whatever the food, I love it. In fact, I am hungry now just writing about food. It really is a good […]

You make me sick!

People who ‘forget’ to wash their hands after using the bathroom make me sick! Both literally and figuratively. After encountering this unhygienic practice a few too many times, I had decided to blog about it but kept putting it off as it was not really the most interesting thing to blog about. Relevant and serious […]
