An Overlooked Plan for Bush, Kerry, Democrats, Republicans, and Healthcare Costs

Written by Joseph & Victoria Quinn - uss4getmenot Personal Voice


In an effort to assist our political leadership it would be wise to have a simple solution to a life threatening problem. The much talked about Medicare Medication benefits are going to waste ifrepparttar medications are not taken properly. Since this month of October is “Talk About Prescriptions” we should recognize some basic facts. There are multiple steps available that will benefit all consumers of healthcare. (Aside from obvious unmet steps for physical activity such as of walking).


After doing some researchrepparttar 110881 industry acknowledges,(inrepparttar 110882 Merck manual) that a significant percentage of admissions to healthcare facilities (Hospital and Nursing Homes) are due torepparttar 110883 fact that seniors are not taking their medications properly. Perhaps there is easy solution for long distance family members. If one hasrepparttar 110884 time to give a friendly reminder call and await their completion of their medications, checking of blood sugar, blood pressure, or other health regimen would be extremely helpful. The industry estimates fromrepparttar 110885 heart disease management alone ‘medication compliance’ could save an estimated $100 billion each year ifrepparttar 110886 medications were taken properly.

You eye your warm and cozy bed as you rush to find something- anything- to wear. And somehow it doesn't seem fair that even your morning coffee wakes up to a fresh-roasted drip through a hot coffee-maker while you have been subjected torepparttar 110893 onslaught of a thousand icy pin pricks all over your pathetic, working-stiff body.

HOW TO KEEP YOUR TOWELS PERPETUALLY WARM AND DRY

---------------------------------------------

A towel warmer is really much more than a simple towel warmer. It has many, many uses. You could almost use one in every area of your home. The obvious place isrepparttar 110902 bathroom. Never again will you reach for a towel or washcloth and find a damp, clammy, sour-smelling rag. Inrepparttar 110903 humid summer months, your towel warmer will chase away mold and mildew in both your bathroom and on your towels. Your towels will always smell clean, feel nice and warm and keep their fluffiness. You can even slip a scented dryer sheet betweenrepparttar 110904 folds of your towels so that they always smell April fresh. Can you imaginerepparttar 110905 feeling you'll get when you wrap yourself inrepparttar 110906 warmth of a super deep heated bath towel? And not only willrepparttar 110907 towel warmer keep your towels nice and warm and dry, it will also keeprepparttar 110908 bathroom nice and warm. The floor aroundrepparttar 110909 unit stays warm and you can even draperepparttar 110910 clothes you're going to wear onrepparttar 110911 towel warmer as you dry off- so they will also be warm when you slip them on.

---------------------------------------------

NOW, EVEN WET AND MUSTY OUTER WEAR STAYS FOREVER WARM AND DRY

---------------------------------------------

Can you imagine how wonderfully soothing it would be to slip on a warm and toasty winter coat or rain jacket before heading out intorepparttar 110912 cold winter weather? That's why I keep an extra towel warmer in my mudroom. The Towel Warmer keeps your umbrella dry, your rain boots dry, and takesrepparttar 110913 cold and dampness out of all your outerwear. I put sweaty gym shoes underrepparttar 110914 towel warmer after shaking in some anti-fungal foot powder. Then when I slip them back on, it's almost like wearing a brand new pair of shoes. The kids put their gloves, scarves and coats onrepparttar 110915 towel warmer and then when they go out to play, it's like they're wearing an extra layer of warmth. The baby LOVES to get into her nice and warm snowsuit. In fact, she usually falls asleep before I get her torepparttar 110916 car. The older kids keep their camping gear nearrepparttar 110917 towel warmer, so that tents, tarps and sleeping bags dry out quickly and are ready when they are. We haven't had a bit of problem with musty-smelling and mildewed camping gear since we've been keeping it nearrepparttar 110918 towel warmer inrepparttar 110919 mud room. We even takerepparttar 110920 portable towel warmer with us when we camp, so that bathing suits, towels and soggy clothes can be kept warm and dry. At night, we line up allrepparttar 110921 shoes underrepparttar 110922 towel warmer with a fresh pair of warm socks draped overrepparttar 110923 bars. That way we wake up to instantly warm and dry feet. These little conveniences can really add a lot of comfort to camping trips.

---------------------------------------------

HURRY, BEFORE THE CHILL OF WINTER SETS IN

---------------------------------------------

We keeprepparttar 110924 ski boots and heavy woolen socks nearrepparttar 110925 towel warmer, so that they dry quickly and thoroughly between uses. I also sometimes throwrepparttar 110926 welcome mat overrepparttar 110927 towel dryer for a little while to keep it nice and dry. The towel warmer seems to have extendedrepparttar 110928 carpet in my mudroom as well. I think that's because it's never damp for long.
