Getting Well

I’m glad that Josh’ wounds are reacting positively on the prescribed antibiotic, his complains about the itching and pain is lesser now. Actually this day I heard about one complain only and it’s about the micropore tape that clings to his skin, oh well Josh is just like that, a real baby because he’s the youngest. I was also amazed at his effort to go to school despite his wounds. I told him that it’s ok if he’ll just report next week because it’s just the start but he would never heard any of it. He’s happy to go to school, a real smart student and I’m proud that all of my kids are really excited in going to school.

I Love Reading Books

Ever since I was in high school I was very fond of reading books, actually it’s one of the reasons why I’m nearsighted now. If I started reading a novel I wouldn’t stop until I flipped the back cover. My preferences are varied, I’m interested in so many things in the field of history, science, mystery, travel, home designs and inspirational books. Reading books was a kind of therapy for me as I learn and explore so many things. Now that I’m too busy to look for books that I want to read it’s nice that I can buy my favorite books online. No need to go to bookstore and go through shelves to look for the books that I want.

Independence Day

Though Madame President changed the date of Independence Day holiday I still post this on the real day of the time that our country had its Independence. As always buildings, establishment, school and houses put their flags waving in front of their establishment to commemorate the day that our Philippine flag was raised on June 12, 1898 in Aguinaldo’s House in Kawit, Cavite.

Every Independence day our church was spending the holiday on a beach renting a hall and cottages to have a one-day fellowship and every June 12 we go to Villamar Resort in Rosario, Cavite because we’re comfortable with the setup there. On our way to Villamar Resort we always passed by near the place of Aguinaldo’s house but 6am onwards the police authorities there were rerouting the vehicles to have some traffic order.

We only see the house and the place on our way back to Manila and as we passed by the house I’m always on a trance imagining things that happened in that house, history was my favorite subject you know that’s why I’m really interested with places, origins, events, culture and things that pertains to history.

Awareness On Folliculitis

Went home earlier yesterday and brought Josh to his doctor before going to bible study. Josh had one of those small pimples on the forehead and beginning to spread on the head. Since school has already started I wanted it to heal faster as it also causing him some pain. Just in time before the doctor closed her clinic we luckily entered the clinic as the last patient. Josh was very comfortable with Dr. Cristy Pablo, a sister of my classmate in high school and a daughter of my father’s friend. He answers every question asked of him with a smile that’s why Dr. Cristy can’t stop smiling at him too commenting how smart he is.

Upon examination of his head she concluded that the small pimples around his hair follicles are folliculitis forming on the head and scalp. I’ve researched about this as the name sounds new to me and I’ve learned that this infection on the head are really itchy and painful due to wounds that are open with yellow-brown crusts formed around the margin. The wound bed appears inflamed, reddish, bleeds easily and can spread rapidly. I’m glad that my son’s infection is not that inflamed or reddish and his doctor told me that within one week of treatment his wounds will dry out.

She gave Josh a prescription of Cloxacillin antibiotic, 3x a day for 7 days together with Povidone-Iodine as antimicrobial treatment to be applied to the freshly cleaned wounds. I’ve been using agua-oxinada as cleanser for the wounds. By the way this infection is like boils the difference is boils tend to be single and larger while folliculitis is a group of small infected spots. So for moms out there take note of this if you happen to see a pimple-looking thing on your kid don’t just take it for granted, it could be an infection.

New Hope For Cancer Patients

Many women nowadays are suffering from breast cancer. Some have recovered but others aren’t lucky enough to escape the sting of the killer disease. I have a friend who has recently recovered through her improved healthy eating habits, strong faith and prayers from us. Statistics have shown that a lot of women suffered from this disease because of many factors, wrong eating habit, too much physical stress, overworked, some complications and few have hereditary roots. The common cure for this disease is chemotherapy but a lot of the women I’ve known completed the chemotherapy program but their bodies resisted the recovery. If only there’s alternative cancer treatments for cancer patients maybe some of them would have recovered.

Have been very interested with finding alternative method on how to prevent and cure this prevailing disease and came upon New Hope Medical Center, an alternative cancer center which offers better method of treatment that will work well with your body’s natural health and not against it. They focus on restoring your immune system to cope up with strong medications. They build immune system, implement anti-tumor methods and detoxification, promotes stress reduction and most importantly psychological healing which would help them recover fast. All treatments are different individually depending upon the patient’s needs.

It’s nice to know that there’s really a new hope for cancer patients. With all these that New Hope Medical Center has to offer I can see that there are big chances and possibilities of surviving cancer. Patient needs healthy life style, well balanced food, right eating habit, rest and alternative cancer treatment to have strong immune system to fight the most common cancer these days.

Josh Is Kinder Now!

Josh was so excited that even if his schedule is on the afternoon he asked me to prepare his things earlier and even requested me to take him to school before lunchtime, really missing his schooling or maybe his school friends. It took me a long time to get ready because I’ve dressed his wound in the forehead. It’s just a small skin infection but I’ve covered it just to be sure that his wound wouldn’t be infected with dirt.

He has a new teacher now but he’s on the same room as when he’s on nursery. He’s very happy to see some of his buddies like Yvan, Rafael, Marc Axl and Louis Andre. Lucky they have each other again for friends. He’s different now unlike last year when he wanted me by his side. He even told me after class that their teacher told them not to bring their moms on the second day lol! That really got me laughing!

I waited for him as I’ve done with all of my kids on their first day and I’m not alone on this as almost every kid has a mommy, granny or nanny waiting for them. After they went out of the room he pleaded to play first in the slide before going home as many kinder students were already on different playthings there, some on the playhouse, others on the seesaw, I also saw one kid on the bike and a lot of them on the slide, the favorite one. Funny thing is the announcement on the wall ‘No Classes Tomorrow’. That announcement on the first day? Yap! Because tomorrow is Provincial Day of Rizal, our province.

Thinking About Dieting?

I’ve always wanted to lose the unwanted pounds I gained from giving birth. I have a slender frame when I got married but after giving birth to my second and third child I had a hard time getting back to that frame. As I’m a working mom too my schedule didn’t allowed me to take up exercise regimen and nutritional weight loss program, it’s the usual cry of the busy mothers like me. Maybe it’s easier if busy moms would have a list of best diet pills to choose so it wouldn’t take so much time just to lose some unwanted pounds. It’s easier to have the list and the places where you can avail them and hopefully consult with them what’s the best choice that would suit you best.

First Day of School

It’s the first day of school again; back to super busy schedules of fixing the kids’ things, food and so many school activities. It’s the beginning again of waking up at dawn to prepare food for breakfast and lunch meals of my dear students. I’m again having those first-day-of-school cramps :-). I have a morning to afternoon schedule with my girls and afternoon schedule for my boy. I’ve always see to it that I accompany them on their first day because they want to and I like it also to assist them in anyway I can and meet their teachers too.

Ruth was excited when she entered her classroom with pink wall and pink curtains, she love pink you know. She’s in the fifth grade and she’s grown taller now, my friends kept on telling me that she looked like a grade six or higher because of her height. Gen on her grade four suddenly smiled at having a new classroom on a building away from the small kids’ building, she felt more matured now as she sat on the place given to her by her new teacher. Her room has the best view as they have a very wide veranda in front of their room.

All parents were busy with their children and you can see their caring attention on their children as they assisted them on their way to their classroom entrusting their precious ones to their teachers.
