Page 1 of 2 TGIF (Thank God It's Friday) You’ve been juggling your family and work  responsibilities all week long plus serving as a devoted caregiver to a loved one in need…..which no doubt included lifting kids and packages, walkers and wheelchairs in and out of the car, stooping and bending to assist your loved ones, pushing and pulling more weight than many professional weight lifters…. non-stop with absolutely no thought to your own health or safety. WHERE DOES IT HURT ??? I imagine your immediate response to the simple question  "Where Does It Hurt?" would be: “ EVERYWHERE”. But Denise & Alicia, two dear friends who are fabulous nurses at a long term care facility, dropped by the Café to suggest you take a TWO-MINUTE SYMPTOM CHECK... ..
TWO-MINUTE SYMPTOM CHECK  They recommend you take two-minutes to: 1. Think About Where You Specifically Hurt 2. Click on QualityHealth’s Visual Symptom Checker & click on that specific body area 3. Read about:  > Possible Causes of your Symptom > How to Self Treat > When it is an Emergency > When you should Call your Doctor > How to Prevent it in the Future THINK-IT-THROUGH: WHAT CAN YOU DO We hope you'll take a few minutes this weekend to think it through. What small changes can you make in your actions to protect your body better? And don’t forget to tap into the healing power of goods friends and hugs to help ease the hurt, wherever it may be! Caringly, Jackie, Jeff, & Friends
