Good News on the US Healthcare Scene!

B'SD

13 Cheshvan, 5779

There's good news on the American healthcare scene. If you disagree, think back to when doctors were leaving the medical profession in startling numbers every month. Insurance issues were killing the healthcare industry back then, let alone people.









Want to cope with medical and/or mental health problems, including the expenses for your care, anywhere in the world? 

Buy the E-book or print edition of EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge

Have US Patients and Medical Professionals Asked the Wrong Financial Questions?

B'SD

13 Av, 5775

As if headlines weren't scary enough, yesterday's edition of MedPage Today looked at a serious issue:

When it comes to health care spending, "We must face the fact that we largely have been asking the wrong questions for many years," says Stuart Guterman.





Wedges shmedges. You need help to lower your medical bills now. Ask your medical team and pharmacist for solutions. They tend to exist (too far and too few, sad to say) or to be possible, but only for people who seek them out.

Need more cost-cutting information?

Look for relief in the Global Resources section of the E-book or print edition of EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge

How to Help Ill and Disabled People to Face Life with Dignity and Optimism

B'SD

21/22 Tevet, 5774



EMPOWERING Author Helps Ill and Disabled Readers to Face Life with Dignity and Optimism – Connect and Find Out Why.


Yocheved Golani’s It’s MY Crisis! And I’ll Cry If I Need To: EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge is helping readers worldwide. The E-book and print edition are different from other self-help, inspirational books. Why? Because of the author who wrote it.

Yocheved doesn’t play “Holier than you” games with her readers nor does she pretend that all will be sweet if only you follow the suggestions in the book. From cover to cover, Yocheved acknowledges the pain, confusion and anger that go with illness. She shares practical, proven ways to “Face Your Medical Problems with Dignity. Face Your Future with Optimism” throughout the text. Different chapters show you how to tame the insurance and medical paperwork monster, how to remember every medical appointment and medication (including what they’re for!); even the names of all the doctors involved in your medical care or your loved one’s.

There are humorous takes on life throughout the book, including a “knock ‘em flat” response to critics who insist you have no right to cry "... because G’D only gives what we can handle” (ever heard of a nervous breakdown? Death? Lifelong disabilities? The need to recover from a setback?). They and Yocheved validate your emotions and let you laugh so you can restore your sense of perspective, your zest for life AND your better self to the overall picture. You might even end up feeling better about G'D!

There’s a reason that medical and mental health professionals recommend It’s MY Crisis! And I’ll Cry If I Need To: EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge.







World-renown psychiatrist Dr. A. Twerski chuckles that he gives it to patients on chemotherapy and to addicts in rehab. “They don’t call me much after that. “They feel better just reading the book!”

Yocheved Golani is different from other authors in the medical, self-help and inspirational genre because she’s honest about what it takes to cope with harsh reality and end up smiling. No white-washing with her. Just solid stress-busting information proven to work over time, plus time-saving leads to the cost-cutting information ill people need. The Global Resources section at the back of the book is a goldmine of organizations willing to provide you with a free wheelchair, medical transportation, affordable medication or medical appliances and lots more!

Get someone (including yourself!) a great gift for the holiday season. Let them learn how to enjoy it more, and at all, when they read It’s MY Crisis! And I’ll Cry If I Need To: EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge.

“Yocheved Golani energizes us all to partner with GOD to seek and savor life to the fullest for both our mental and physical health. This book is lifesaving, emotionally rewarding, spiritual, funny and helpful…” - Dr Judith Guedalia PhD, Director of Neuropsychology Unit and Chief Medical Psychologist ER Trauma(MCE) Team at Shaarei Zedek Hospital in Jerusalem, Israel




Buy the E-book or print edition of EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge any time of the year!

Here's How to Help Detroit Retirees

B'SD

9 Tishrei, 5774


I did a triple-take when I read this headline:

Detroit may end health care coverage for retirees under 65, replace it with $125 monthly stipends


I can well imagine the sense of dread, panic and raw fear in the people who might be affected by this drastic move. 

$125.00 does not buy much health care. 

At retirement age, quality healthcare is usually Priority 1!

Considering the Confusion in California about Medicare Exchanges being Meaningless, more older Americans need to know how to obtain adequate health care. It's a matter of survival!


If I were in this situation, 
I'd be weeping.

Know a Detroiter or Californian who needs affordable quality medical care?
  • Medication? 
  • Medical transportation help? 
  • Medical appliances? 
  • Something else medical?

Alert them to pages upon pages of information about charitable organizations - worldwide - willing to pay for some or all of an applicant's medical necessities.

Buy that person a copy of the E-book or print edition of EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge so they can read all about that.




A medical crisis - you'd cry too, if it happened to you. Use your tissues and handkerchiefs with my blessings borne of experience. GOD gives you Permission to Weep. Read all about that on pages 4 and 5.

Forget about politicians promising to save you. They caused this mess.

One Easy Way to Be Somebody's Hero/Heroine!

B'SD

11 Shvat, 5773


I was at a party last night. The hostess asked each international guest to introduce themselves as we sat in a circle. 

As the conversation continued, one person mentioned that she's helping someone to get past a medical problem with her dignity intact by using a book. The hostess asked "Which book is that?"

I almost dropped my drink when the answer filled the air!



Then, the hostess remarked, "Oh, I have a copy of it on my bookshelf. Here it is! My whole family reads this whenever we need to!" She pointed to the bookshelf where she stores her copy.

Here's something that a reader wrote on the EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge Facebook page: "A moving, uplifting book. Order it now ! Not only for yourself but others in your world..."

Readers, you can be someone's hero or heroine with the simple gift of the book. 

It helps you and your loved one(s), friends or mentors to lose stress, to connect with much-needed medical and mental health professionals, and to lower your medical expenses.

Read the back cover to learn of the doctor who said the book saved his life.

Crossing Jordan - and Begging Heaven to Heal a Special Lady

B'SD

26 Tishrei, 5773

One of the activities of that face-to-face Facebook group members meeting the other day was to pray for ill people to heal emotionally, physically and spiritually. The impetus for that was the stunning news that a heroic lady and her husband have been faced once more with her battle to defeat cancer.

You can read their touching, motivational blog Crossing Jordan (the Yarden in Hebrew) and join the people in Stella's army praying for her recovery. Stella's Hebrew name is Tzureeya Kokhevet bat Sara (Tzureeya Star daughter of Sara. Sorry, Tzureeya doesn't translate into easy English).


I'm trying to get a copy of


to her via a mutual friend, as it lists worldwide organizations willing to pay for part or all of Stella's (or anyone's) medical and medication costs. If you want to help us to accomplish the mission of mercy, contact me via giveretgolani@gmail.com.

You can see a few of us holding on to our prayer booklets in this photo by fellow blogger Batya Medad



(my booklet is in my hand but was cropped out of the photo to fit this blogpost).

Joy is part of life. A little guy let me dance with him to make a mood of happiness to improve anyone's outlook and life. GOD willing we'll dance again to celebrate Stella's healthy victory.



Leave a message  for Stella to read 
in the "comments" section.

Here's what democrats 
don't want the public to realize,
by the way...

The Death Panel Dilemma

Voters, here's how you can save your sanity and health with info on:
  • Charitable organizations willing to pay part or all of your medical bills,
