Sunday, May 5

Happy Sunday everyone,
Sorry I am late with this post but I had a busy weekend. Yesterday was Quazar Chapter of Arkansas Council of the Blind. We had 16 present for the meeting and then enjoyed an outing to Olive Garden! If you are not involved with one of the advocacy groups, I strong encourage you to participate. It is a wonderful experience and opportunity to visit with old friends.

A recent AARP magazine had an interesting article about changing your pillow to help with springtime allergies. The bottom line is change your pillow every 18 months. This doesn't mean flip it over! Spend the $10 for a new pillow and you will have less allergies and sleep better. The study found 16 types of fungus on pillows over 18 months old from dead body cells, dust mites, and drool. If you fold your pillow in half and it doesn't pop back to the original shape it is time for a new one.

Stay healthy!
Until tomorrow,
Dr. Janet
