When a loved one needs help

May 6, 2008

When a loved one has an alcohol addiction it is great to see that there are alcohol rehab centers. Sometimes, as much as we want to save someone, we cannot begin to do it ourselves. Even many alcoholics will admit that they have a hard time doing it on their own.

If you have a friend or family member in need of help for an alcohol addiction, call your nearest hospital, Alcoholics Anonymous, or alcohol rehabilitation center for information on how you can help.






Mesothelioma

How many of you have heard of mesothelioma?

For those of you who haven’t, mesothelioma is a form of cancer that is contracted by exposure of asbestos.  It occurs in the lungs and chest cavity but also can affect the heart.

My late grandpa Orie used to work in a factory where he was subjected to harmful materials every day.  Asbestos was one of those materials.  At the age of 66 he died of lung cancer.

Cancer is a treacherous disease.  It is a disease that many people have lost someone to or at least know of someone who has died of it or had a family member die of it.

I am in full support of the American Cancer Society and the Susan G. Kohmen Foundation.  Both are excellent organizations that raise awareness about cancer and raise money for cancer research.
