We had a short introduction to this training and believe me, it was an eye-opener, or closer as the case may be, for me. How easy it is to lose patience when dealing with people with disabilities and how soon we forget that we, as children, were…

Monitor Your Loved Ones Medications!

My mom almost passed out in church a few months ago and scared the @#$% out of me! Turns out she had forgotten she had taken her high blood sugar meds and TOOK THEM TWICE.

Stylish Clothing for BIG Women, where is it?

On a recent shopping expedition with my sister, we searched high and low for really stylish clothing in a size 14 or large and found very little.  The majority of what we found was "old lady" clothing.  Those funky prints and unflattering mumus that pass for clothing for BIG women. Why?  Everyone knows that the average size of the mature American woman is 14, so why are the majority of clothing stores still catering to the 0-12 crowd?  Think you won't sell stylish clothes in larger sizes? …See More

Lovely Lady Z, thank you so much for your comment about the Empathy for Elders program. It is presented by Better Living For Seniors www.blfspolk.com. You could definitely contact them to find out when and where their next presentation will be held. Another training that teaches compassion toward the elderly is an Alzheimer 1 class. Mulberry pharmacy hosts this class once a month. By the public educating themselves with these classes, they are actually giving dignity back to people who did nothing to lose it but grow older.
