    My father is okay. They were able to manually reduce a hernia in the ER and it wasn't strangulated so he's home. He'll follow up with a surgical consult and return to the ER if the pain returns or...

    Yep, this guy was saying to ask your provider to not take the BP right away like that because sitting in the waiting room doesn't count. My doc actually took mine himself when it was high when I came...

    Nannie perhaps has a sense that something just isn't right with her and might be trying to sort that out. It's sad sometimes to see people with dementia try to make sense of the world. Sometimes...

    It's about $4,000 a month here in Florida for an ALF, but I think it depends on the level of care needed, such as memory care, and the facility. For the most part you have to be pretty independent...

    I avoid the popcorn because of the fat, calories and salt. Frugal best friend avoids it because of the cost. But it is good. I hate to be one of those that talks about "younger workers these...
