Everyone is Doing It | Healthmad

Everyone is Doing It | Healthmad



Just because your kid says everyone is doing it, is no reason to let your child do something foolish. Breast enhancement, nose jobs and tattoos are not for children. When your child wants to follow the herd, remind her or him, she’s an individual and much too smart to be coerced into what everyone else is doing. Your kid is a smart cookie and should be playing her own game.

Every woman wants a lovely home. Too bad many of us cannot afford decorators, even so, you can still have a comfortable, attractive home by decorating it yourself. Paint isn’t too expensive and neither is fabric, purchased from thrift stores. You can be creative or look at decorating magazines to choose the look you want for your house. With a can do attitude, and a little elbow grease, you can be proud of your efforts.

Awareness in Patients During Surgery | Healthmad

Awareness in Patients During Surgery | Healthmad



Imagine waking up in the middle of surgery and being paralyzed and unable to move. It happens to at least 20,000 people every year and until recently, patients were told they were only having a bad dream. No more, doctors and hospitals are taking surgery awareness more seriously today. Hospitals were hopeful that a gadget called BIS which measures brain activity would signal when the patient was conscious, but it didn’t prove as effective as they thought. During surgery, the skill of the person administering the anesthesia is the only thing standing between you and unimaginable pain and terror.
