Taking Action!!

There are many things in life that can go wrong. One thing that I heard about recently from a friend of mine at work was a surgery gone badly. To be more correct, the surgery was good, the device that was implanted was not! My friend Edger had a bad hip. He needed to replace the hip joint with a device that would allow him to lead a fairly normal life. He went through the surgery and had a durom cup hip replacement. Things seemed to go well and we all thought he would be ok.

The problem didn’t arrive until a few years after the surgery. The doctors wanted to operate again to surgically revise the device that had been implanted. They thought the device was loose and needed to fix it. It turns out that Edger was not alone in this matter as there were other people who had issues on zimmer durom cup. It seemed to be a recurring problem with this particular device.

I know that there are many more people out there who have gone through this type surgery. I strongly advise that if you know of such a person, you tell them to look into the situation. There is a lot of information on the different zimmer durom cup types and the implications of each. I hope that no one else has this kind of problem, but if you did, you should be sure to take appropriate action!

Steel and safety

Since our company is expanding into new areas, I am always interested to hear about the latest news from other areas of the world about our companies successes. I was glad to hear about one of our new offices that is being built right now. They have some of the newest technologies going into the building that will house our new department. One item of interest is the nullifire coating that the steel in our building will receive. I like to keep up with construction technology and this was something new.

It seems that steel needs to have a fire rating. By applying coatings to the steel, we can achieve this goal. It is important to maintain the safety of our personnel by ensuring our buildings are up to the latest safety codes and this is a good way to do it. As it turns out, this is not the only step we have taken.

Another safety feature we have employed is the use of a fire spray that is sprayed onto the steel. This helps the steel keep its integrity during a fire and allows a longer period for emergency actions to be taken. I am glad that our company has continued to maintain its concern for the safety of our personnel. This is but one reason I like working here so much!

Good news from Tennessee

One of my sisters lives down in Tennessee. She has been there for more than a few years now and is doing very well. She has a good job and lots of friends. The problem is that one of her friends recently went through some difficulties and had to enter a Tennessee Drug Rehab center. It was a good thing that she did because I heard that her behavior was very self-destructive. That’s never a good thing.

It seems that my sister’s friend had become dependent on alcohol and it was affecting her work, family, and home life. Unfortunately, like many people, it took a major event to force her to realize her condition. It wasn’t until she wrecked her car that she volunteered to enter an Alcohol Rehab program. The good news is that she came through it and is ready to start a new phase in her life.

After hearing about the whole thing, I realized that there are many people who are going through the same type of thing. I thought I would try to study up on the problem to see what I could do to help. I found some good information on the internet that can help me recognize the signs of these types of behavior so that I can intervene when necessary. I glad that my sister has her friend back and I am certain that she will do fine. I really hope she will.

Lonely?

I was perusing the news today and ran across a weird story. It seems that loneliness can spread through groups of people much like a cold. There are a few characteristics of being lonely that force people to change how they interact with other people. The sickness makes people feel cut-off which in turn cuts off other people. This all adds up to people feeling more alone even while in groups. I hope that people will realize the bad effects of this sickness and learn to recognize the signs; you may be able to help someone as well as yourself.

These supplements can provide the things we humans seek.

Be Careful!!

I was looking at the news when I saw a little article that gave me a surprise. It said that Thanksgiving is the most dangerous time of year to be driving. I always thought that the New Years holiday would be the worst, but I was wrong. I guess that people are so aware that driving on New Years Eve is a problem and so they are extra careful. Thanksgiving has no such stigma.

I hope that everyone will take this warning to heart and be extra safe today. The holidays are a time of cheer and we don’t want to see any unnecessary tragedies. So please be careful today and tonight and drive with this thought in mind.

Help for those who need it

I work in a large office. Because of this, I run into many types of people. Some are very nice and some are not. Some have excellent lives, while others have struggled with personal problems. It’s the later type of person I would like to address. Since I have started working in this office, I have personally met two or three people who have needed Alcohol Treatment. They are not bad people by any means, just people with problems.

One of the best things about my company is that they understand the value of people and will stand behind those they hire. My company provides the means for a Private Alcohol Rehab for anyone who feels they need to take advantage of it. I like the fact that our company cares about its workers and will go the extra mile to ensure that they are healthy and cared for.

My company also understands that the statistics show that there is someone in every group who may need assistance with alcohol abuse. We have outlined a plan to help those individuals regain control over their lives. It’s always a pleasure to me to see somebody receive the help they need and go on to a successful life and career. I thank goodness that I work for such a great company!

Keeping Dad safe

Every year, I go down to Florida to visit my dad. It’s one of the highlights of the year for me. He retired about five years ago and has a nice little condo where he stays. He enjoys the weather there and loves to go fishing when he can. The bad part is that he lives all alone and there is no one there to help if he gets in trouble. Dad has a few medical issues and has been known to fall out from time to time.

He has a condition that causes him to pass out occasionally. For the most part he is ok, but you never know what could happen. The last time I was there, I decided to get him set up with a system called Life Alert. It’s a system that makes sure he can receive help when he needs it. It has a feature called the inactivity detector that notices when he hasn’t moved and alerts the authorities.

Life Alert has other great features as well. There is a smoke detector and a pushbutton system that he can use if he feels that he needs too. I feel a lot better knowing that he is not alone even when he is. This is a great use of technology and I have no problem taking advantage Life Alert to ensure my dad is safe. Now we can go fishing and really enjoy it!

Better Eating

We have been concentrating on what we eat lately and have made some changes to our diets. We felt that we would all be better off if we ate healthier and consumed a more balanced diet. Since we started, we have felt the positive effects of our efforts. I thought I might give everyone a clue as to what we are doing.

We are learning to eat more fruits and vegetables. They are good for you and should be the basis of a balanced meal. We also have cut out drinking soda. We installed a water tap which supplies our daily water intake which we have increased. Another thing we have done was to increase the amount of exercise we are getting. These few things have benefitted us greatly. I hope you will take our advice and try doing the same!
