Computed Axial Tomography has Advanced

Posted April 26th, 2007 by kim in Tatym

I cannot believe how much technology has advanced in the last decade. I’m sure the price has increased considerably as well. When my twins were younger and needed tests (ie CT, MRI), I would plan on a whole day wasted having to go to the hospital and sit and wait. Then wait days for the results.

Well, now my youngest daughter, age 8, (3 weeks premature, but no complications) has been having headaches ALL the time. So, I took her to Yankton Medical Clinic yesterday to a pediatrician specializing in neurology. We saw the doctor, had a cat scan right in the office, and got the results right away in about an hour. No brain tumor, thank the Lord.

He is thinking she has tension headaches and knots in her muscles at the base of her neck. We’re gonna try heat and massage. Poor girl already has to deal with Interstitial Cystitis and now this.

Wear the Shoes That Make a Difference

Posted April 19th, 2007 by kim in Recommendations, March of Dimes

Dr.Scholl's. Women's Hope.While at Famous Footwear yesterday, the cashier asked if we’d like to donate $2 to the March of Dimes and in return, we’d get 250 Free Bonus Rewards Points. Well, not only am I big fan of Famous Footwear, but I’m a bigger fan of the March of Dimes since my twins were born premature over 3 months early.

Dr. Scholl’s designed the official shoes of March of Dimes WalkAmerica (Dr Scholl’s Men’s Miracle and Dr Scholl’s Women’s Hope), and they are available exclusively at Famous Footwear. $5 from every pair sold will be donated to the March of Dimes (up to $50,000) for the campaign against premature birth. Looks like I definitely need a pair of these, especially since I’ve been walking to try to lose weight.
