Multiple Sclerosis

I was watching a Filipino news and current affairs show and they featured a young lady who suffered Multiple Sclerosis. The young lady was a college student and is the hope of her family because she is intelligent and her future is very promising according to her parents. They did not know at first what happened to her when she came home from their school field trip and one side of her body became limp and she can hardly move. Because they are poor the family wasn't able to bring her to the hospital for thorough check up.

Good thing when this television network learned of her situation they helped her. She was brought to the hospital and the doctors found out that all she is suffering is an Ms symptoms. She was given proper medication as well as told to follow an Ms Diet in order for her to get better. Due to the family's financial situation they don't know if they can shoulder all the expenses.

I am very moved by how the young girl shows her spirit. Even if her condition is very poorly she still got high hopes. I learned a lesson from her that whatever low the situation we are in there is always hope as long as we believe. We just have to keep our faith. Now I am very curious about Multiple Sclerosis. I found a website that talks all about MS. It is very interesting illness and like any other illness that you don't really want to happen to you.

 

Rehab Treatment Facility

Nowadays you can hear a lot of news about people abusing prescription drugs and alcohol that are involved in car accidents. Almost everyday on the news about crashes and DUI is the reason. It is a shame that there are innocent people became victims of those driving under the influence. These people should keep away from any vehicles when intoxicated or better yet be admitted to an alcohol treatment center or undergo drug treatment.

Talking about drug rehab or alcohol rehab, a treatment facility in California offers drug rehab services. This rehab center is known to have one of the best alcohol treatment programs. The detoxification process of their patients is best suited for every one's needs. Their rehabilitation facility features alot of activities that can cater to their residents.

I really think that it is best for those people who are into any kind of addiction, drugs or alcohol, to get intervention while they can. It is for their own good, their loved ones as well as for those that they will encounter along the way. So if whoever have loved ones that needs help, check out axis house.net and inquire how they can help you and your loved ones who are suffering addiction to have their life back.

 

Blogging Absence

It's been eleven days since my last post here. I was busy with my errands, seeing friends and tending to our sick DD. The past week was kinda rough for me. I did a lot of driving going to places. Then Monday night our DD had a fever. I got so scared since there's only the two of us here. I was wondering what caused her fever. I was thinking she must have been tired from our driving almost the whole day while it was very hot and humid. I gave her baby Tylenol and the fever subsided. I gave another dose after four hours and her temperature maintained at 99F. When she woke the next morning she was very hot again. Although she had temperature she was still very active and playing a lot so I did not worry much. Then she started complaining her teeth hurts. When I look at her mouth I saw blisters and her gums kind of swollen. I called her dentist and made an appointment. Wednesday morning when she woke up and her temperature went up to 103F. I decided to call the hospital and made a same day appointment. I went to the hospital at 10am and at 1pm we went to see her dentist.

The doctor that saw her at the hospital prescribed her a mouthwash to apply on her gums every four hours. And he told me to continue to give the Tylenol if her temperature is still up. Her blisters and swollen gums caused her the fever. When we saw her dentist she was really behave. The dentist told me that her gums are really irritated and she has sores in her tongue, sides of her mouth and two on her lips. She told me to brush her teeth gently or just clean her mouth and teeth with gauze dipped in a salt solution. Then this Friday we will go back to the dentist to have her teeth cleaned.

I wasn't satisfied with the consultation at the hospital so I called the triage nurse and asked if I can get another appointment again since our DD's fever kept coming back and she had open sores in her mouth. There was no available schedule at the Army hospital so she referred me off post, at an urgent care clinic. Good thing the clinic is only five minute drive. She has normal temperature already and the doctor evaluated her and based on the symptoms showing, she told me she has a viral infection common with kids. She said it is like foot, hand and mouth disease. But good thing with her she don't have blisters on her hands and feet.

The sores and tender gums are really a discomfort to her especially when she's eating. She had hard time chewing as well as swallowing. Tuesday until Thursday she hardly ate. She was asking for food that she usually eat but once she took a bite she will give it back to me right away and will say "ya-yay" or "ouchi". I gave her liquids, milk, water and diluted apple juice all the time to make sure she's hydrated. At night she wakes up complaining of the pain in her mouth. Ever since she got sick I haven't had a good sleep. Although she doesn't have fever since Thursday night but her discomfort due to her mouth sores makes her fussy and irritable at night. I am very glad that this weekend she started to eat a lot. The sores are starting to fade and her swollen and bleeding gums is also starting to heal. I am just glad that despite her being sick she is still happy and very active. Hopefully this week everything will be okay and her sores will disappear completely.
