Do You Need a Hug?

10 Cheshvan 5768




Facing a medical crisis is frightening. You wonder who will be a good friend to you. Who will help? Will you be cured? How can anybody stop the pain you're in? Can you find anything to smile about? Will you make it to the happy events you want to attend in the future?

So many questions and nobody to give you guaranteed answers. The answers you so much want and need to hear. You sigh, or cry, maybe show a temper to somebody trying to help you. You so much want a wonderful friend to be with you. Someone who never runs out of patience. Someone who can make you smile again. Someone to embrace you like the elephants kissing each other above.

I can't hold your hand or give you a hug, but I can suggest that you read my It's MY Crisis! And I'll Cry if I Need To. It's all about compassion: how to forgive yourself and others, how to face the pain, the questions, and the fear. It can teach you how to become emotionally stronger.

You'll giggle at some of the humorous thoughts in the book. You'll try the ideas that excite you, and best of all, you just might find solutions you need in the RESOURCES section.

Let my book be a friend to you. Read the parts you enjoy again and again. Look at the front and back covers and see all the hands reaching for yours. The opening words of It's MY Crisis! acknowledge your agony. Cry when you need to. Find the License to Cry in the first few pages.

Buy It's MY Crisis! And I'll Cry if I Need To for yourself or a loved one. Let it be there for you when you need that special friend. Just click on http://www.booklocker.com/books/3067.html



Back on October 8th, I posted news about the phenomenal Breast Chek Kit. Today I received the following message and I'm sharing it with you:

Dear Yocheved, I really would appreciate if you would put this questionnaire on your blog It will assist me in finding out more about people's awareness of the urgency to look after their health generally.

Kind regards,
Prof. Celene Bernstein

October is International Breast Cancer Awareness month. Because breast cancer is such a prevalent disease worldwide, I am collating information to assist with early detection of breast tissue changes. Please spend a few minutes completing the following questions. That will greatly assist my colleagues and I in this endeavour. Your responses will be dealt with confidence.

For Oprah and Other People Whose Thyroid Problems Gotcha Down

6 Cheshvan

America's Queen of Television told the world that her thyroid got her up, down and messed around. That problem is not as rare as you'd think. Lots of people experience thyroid problems. The good news is that they can often be remedied prettily easily. How easily? Look in your kitchen cupboards!

If the problem is hypothyroidism (when the thyroid doesn't work hard enough), these foods can be a big help for boosting that sluggish thyroid and your body to healthy levels:



* Seaweed (minus the tiny seahorses that might be stuck on it). It's rich in iodine.

* Genuine sea salt (the gray, gritty stuff you sprinkle by hand, not the pretty white salt that easily flows through shakers) for more iodine and other nutritional treats for your body.

* Turmeric (a pretty reddish-golden colored spice that tastes good on just about anything from soup to salads) to tame your thyroid into better behavior.

You can find those items in almost any health food store.



If the problem is hyperthyroidism - when the thyroid overworks – then consider adding these things to your meals:

Foods rich in

* B vitamins (bananas, beans, seeds, nuts, fish, meat, dark green vegetables)

* C vitamins (red berries, citrus fruits, red bell peppers and other produce rich in Vitamin C)



Ask a nutritionist for advice about enzyme supplements to help keep things running smoothly. And by all means, have a board-certified doctor check you out for any and all thyroid issues. Some medications are major helpers when food is not the only answer.

You can get more information about thyroids and how to make them work better very easily in my book. Buy It's MY Crisis! And I'll Cry if I Need To. Click on http://www.booklocker.com/books/3067.html

Order it in book stores if it's not on the shelves. It's MY Crisis! and I'll Cry if I Need To can be shipped worldwide.

Does Your Doctor Need to Wash His/Her Hands?

5 Cheshvan 5768

You're already concerned about hospital stays and many doctor appointments. You and/or your loved one are already worried about a medical condition. But here's something else you need to consider: your doctor can make you sicker. So can the operating room.

The good news is that are solutions to the potential problem. Read on for an eye-opening education about the medical world.



The Committee to Reduce Infection Deaths
Your doctors, hospital room and the operating room itself might not be as clean as you’d need or expect. The name for the problem that can seriously affect already ill patients, even kill them, is Nosocomial Infection. It results from medical care in unclean healthcare sites. Medical professionals know that thousands of people are harmed by these infections each year. Help your medical team to clean up its act. Learn more at www.hospitalinfection.org.

The Resources section of my book has other helpful information about how to prepare for hospital stays (including instructions about how to avoid food allergens in your hospital meals and how to prevent receiving the wrong medication).

Walk Around the World for Brain Tumors

4 Cheshvan 5768


Here’s an interesting update about Brain Tumor Awareness Week (I alerted you to the event some time ago):

Walk Around the World for Brain Tumo(u)rs and the Inaugural International Brain Tumo(u)r Awareness Week – News Update October 2007

http://virtualtrials.com/news3.cfm?item=4002

~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~

Once again, this blog and my book have helped someone facing a medical challenge to feel emotional relief. Professor Celene Bernstein, one of the people associated with that Breast Chek kit featured on my October 8 2007 post, contacted me. We’ve corresponded quite a bit about a serious medical problem in her family. She bought my book. And she’s delighted with the references about coping with Multiple Sclerosis in the RESOURCES section of my book. Here’s a message from Professor Bernstein:

DEAR Yocheved, You are so special! thank you for all your e-mails. I am rather busy at work today, but will contact [that] nutritionist and will come back to you regarding organising something on T.V. I know about [author] Lauren Singer. I did have a chat with her. She too is amazing - so positive etc. …

Regards,
Prof. Celene Bernstein


Professor Bernstein intends to share the book with her family member who needs it.

Stay tuned. You might see us together on South African television shows. Professor Bernstein is working on it. This book and blog are going global in many ways.
