Finding faith in few words

HEALTH4ALLCaring for the elderly

14/02/2012 : More than half of my heart patients are above the age of 65. This doesn't come as a surprise since heart diseases usually come with advancing years; the older you are, the higher the risk. But in the not-too-distant future I expect that most of my patients will be 75, or older, because people are now living longer and this increased longevity means that our society contains a greater proportion of elderly citizens.

Alternative ways
03/02/2012 : Although we're all budding non-materialistic Buddhists, we need money and can always use more of it. And while most of us try to get a degree and become a white-collar salary slave, some people have made serious baht in more imaginative ways. Besides drug trafficking (which we strongly advise against), here are six unconventional ways people have generated their dough.
In the MIRROR
Do you like panda's eyes?
02/02/2012 : Sure pandas are cute, but when someone says you resemble a panda, that's not cute anymore. It clearly implies you look tired, you haven't had enough rest, and you've got puffy eyes, dark circles or shadows. And since the eyes speak a great deal about your age, puffy eyes not only make you look dull and droopy, they also make you seem older than you really are.

Demolition plan meets defiance
01/02/2012 : When there's a land development plan, the first things to go are usually old buildings in the vicinity. The older they are, the faster they go, as aged structures often require higher maintenance costs.

Hope on the Horizon
31/01/2012 : Seventy-year-old Don Wright doesn't believe in giving up without a fight. Since being diagnosed with multiple myeloma (MM), also known as myeloma, eight years ago, he has become a beacon of light for patients battling the crippling cancer of the plasma cells in bone marrow. While no exact cause has been found to lead to this disease, it does primarily affect elderly folks. The median age of diagnosis is roughly 70 years.
HEALTH FOR ALL
Avoiding the e word
31/01/2012 : There are so many myths about exercise and heart disease, so many misunderstandings. Anyone who has heart disease is automatically regarded as being in a weakened state of health and it is assumed that his or her life could be in danger. Heart disease is certainly a very scary prospect for many people. Patients of mine with high blood pressure are always asking me whether they have it and that is a hard question to answer because high blood pressure can often lead to heart disease. Also, the medicines used to treat high blood pressure can sometimes be the same as those prescribed for heart disease.
