I was about to do my assignment on insurance reviews last night when my husband and I decided to bring our daughter to the hospital. She did not eat anything yesterday neither drink her milk. She’s been in bed the whole day sleeping. She would only wake up and cry when she coughed. I was worried that she’s getting weaker and might need to be admitted in the hospital.
Our daughter was diagnosed with pneumonia and was given prescriptions for antibiotic, paracetamol and zinc supplement. Thank God she was not admitted. Instead, we were instructed to observe her condition within 24 hours to know if the medicine will make her condition better. If not, we need to bring her back tomorrow for follow-up check-up and further tests. We are praying and hoping that she’ll get better.
Do you have a male youngster at home who started to be self-conscious on his physical appearance? A teenager who inquire you about the changes in his body? Then, don’t be surprised if one day he asks you about testosterone boosters. Testosterone boosters are supplements which increase the testosterone level of the user allowing him to gain muscles. Some athletes also take this kind of supplement to increase their strength and stamina. But of course, whatever we take inside our body will most of time have a side effect. So be cautious, especially to teenagers who may want to try this kind of supplement. The effect of taking testosterone boosters at a very young age might cause a drastic decrease on your testosterone level later in your life. So before taking one, make sure that you do a thorough research about it and don’t just go with the flow.
The appearance of wrinkles is inevitable. This is a sign of aging maturing person. But what concerns most women and men are the premature sight of wrinkles. Most common causes of premature appearance of wrinkles are exposure to sun, smoking, diuretics drink like caffeine drinks, too much washing of face, lack of exercise, alcoholic drinks and lifestyle. Needless to say, if we avoid these things, the premature appearance of wrinkles can be delayed. Added to that, it is vital that we drink plenty of water everyday. Water hydrates our skin and serves as natural skin moisturizer. Hydrated skin is more elastic hence delaying the display of unpleasant and unwanted wrinkles.
So why I am nagging talking about wrinkles now? Because, whenever I watch the news on TV, the topic is all about price increase; increase in electric bill, increase in public transportation fare, increase in market commodity price, and anything that can be increased except for the salary of Juan. If I will always think of these things seriously, I’ll be wrinkles sprouted with face now.
I am happy that my pimples are now healed and new pimple is coming out. I am glad that these pimples are not stubborn and decided to leave my face alone, LOL! Probably, they realized that I don’t have a budget for any acne treatments right now. I only have to wait for the marks to finally disappear from my face.
Yesterday, I met my father’s doctor minus my father. He was also experiencing LBM and was afraid to travel from Bulacan to Quezon City. Since the doctor needs to change his medicine, I need to see her for the new prescriptions. After getting the prescriptions, I bought the medicines from a nearby drugstore. The total amount of the medicines were more than our one week household allowance. I was not even able to buy him a new pen of Lantus, because the money I have on my purse was not enough to purchase the insulin. The insulin has to wait until my next paycheck arrives.
My pocket is already bleeding because of the cost of the medicines. But I can’t leave my parents in this time that they badly need help. Where is my heart if I do that. But it would be a different story if my parents have a health insurance even just a short term like short term health insurance NC. The insurance could shoulder the other medical expenses and it would be a lot easier for all of us, financially wise.
