 Because You Asked ...

 

"I had my Will and Power of Attorney paperwork done a long time ago, why should I worry about it?"

 

Some people seem to avoid having their legal documents drawn up.  Things like a Living Will, Power of Attorney, Health Care Surrogate, and even a Trust.  Let me say right now that I am not an attorney, nor do I profess to know the ins and outs of preparing those types of documents.

 

But this is what I do know:  people tend to avoid getting their affairs in order and keeping them updated.

Hospital Patient for Hospitalizations Article

What should I expect when I am admitted to a hospital for a procedure-when I have Parkinsons Disease?

I don’t think anyone of us wants to be admitted to a hospital.  There are times when hospitals are absolutely essential, and people are admitted due to an acute illness with a need for immediate attention.  Then there are elective admissions.

  • Keep Going
    "If you're going through hell, keep going."Winston Churchill When it feels like you are living your worst nightmare, you probably are.

  • The Relationship Between Humans And Loud Music
    While out walking our dogs with a neighbor on a warm, autumn Sunday morning, we discussed plans for the day. She mentioned she and her husband were going to the theater that evening to hear a New Orleans jazz trombone player and his ensemble. My husband’s ears perked up, as…

  • Managing Medications
    Managing Medications It is becoming more frequent to see medications distributed in blister packs, rather than in pill bottles. Skilled nursing facilities and other medical facilities tend to use them to avoid medication distribution errors.

Medical Conditions

  • Do You Have Breathing Problems?
    Do You Have Breathing Problems? I think that we would all agree that breathing is essential to living.  When our bodies do not get enough oxygen, what happens?
