The term “cheap” has dual meanings. For anyone on a small budget, it means “affordability”. On the other hand, it conveys low-quality, turning a seemingly economical purchase into a not-so-smart decision, epitomized by the adage “You get what you pay for”. Unfortunately, determining whether you’re getting a great deal from whether you’re purchasing a really […]
There’s nothing that’s good about cancer. Patients have to go through a really difficult time and some of the side effects of chemotherapy are often disregarded. But it’s critical to remember that, for a great many cancer patients, there is life after your disease. And, obviously, you want a very full and happy life! Speaking […]
Sometimes, it’s easy to know when you need medical advice. You know you need to go see a doctor right away if you break your leg, for example. With situations like this, simply “toughing it out” isn’t a possibility. At least, not for that long (particularly if you want your bones to mend themselves properly). […]
Lots of older people experience hearing loss, but does that mean it’s hazardous for them to drive? Driving habits differ amongst different people so the response isn’t clear-cut. Even if some adjustments need to be made to the volume of the radio, hearing loss shouldn’t mean a competent driver needs to quit driving. Whether hearing […]
Have you ever been watching your favorite Netflix show when your internet suddenly cuts out? Instead of discovering who won the baking show, you have to watch a never-ending spinning circle. And so you just wait. Maybe it’s your modem, could be your router, possibly it’s the internet provider, or possibly it’ll just fix itself. […]
Individuals are more self-dependent than ever. Does your car need some repairs? You can learn how to do that by watching a YouTube video. Is your sink clogged? YouTube video. Attempting to learn cursive writing? YouTube… look, you get the point. Anything you want to know, you can find, and there’s great potential to teach […]
It’s an awesome and incredible experience, having a baby. But it can also be kind of… uncomfortable, at least sometimes, and at least when it involves how it can make you feel. There’s the morning sickness, the changes to your body, the health challenges, and all kinds of weird side effects. None of this detracts […]
When you’re a kid, falling is just a part of life. Taking a spill on your bicycle? Not unusual. Tripping over your own feet while you’re running outside? Also pretty typical. Kids are quite limber so, no big deal. They don’t usually stay down for long. The same can’t be said as you get older. […]
You asked for help with one basic chore: take the trash out. But, unfortunately, it never was accomplished. “I Didn’t hear you”, they say. Funny how that works, how your partner didn’t hear the one thing you asked them to do. This “selective hearing” is a common sign that communication is failing. This “selective hearing” […]
In the movies, invisibility is a powerful power. The characters can often do the impossible if they have the power of invisibility, whether it’s a spaceship with cloaking ability or a wizard with an invisibility cloak. Invisible health problems, regrettably, are just as potent and a lot less enjoyable. Tinnitus, for example, is a really […]
