The following story was forwarded to me.

It was a busy morning, about 8:30, when an elderly gentleman in his 80s arrived to have stitches removed from his thumb. He said he was in a hurry as he had an appointment at 9:00.

I took his vital signs and had him take a seat, knowing it would be over an hour before someone would be able to see him. I saw him looking at his watch and decided since I was not busy with another patient, I would evaluate his wound. On examining it I saw it was well healed, so I talked to one of the doctors and got the needed supplies to remove his sutures and redress his wound.

While taking care of his wound, I asked him if he had another doctor's appointment this morning, as he was in such a hurry. The gentleman told me no, that he needed to go to the nursing home to eat breakfast with his wife. I inquired as to her health. He told me that she had been there for a while! As she is a victim of Alzheimer's disease.

As we talked, I asked if she would be upset if he was a bit late. He replied that she no longer knew who he was, that she had not recognized him in five years now. I was surprised and asked him, 'And you still go every morning, even though she doesn't know who you are?' He smiled as he patted my hand and said, 'She doesn't know me but I still know who she is.' I had to hold back tears as he left, I had goose bumps on my arm and thought, 'That is the kind of love I want in my life.

''True love is neither physical nor romantic''.
''True love is the acceptance of all that is, has been, will be, and will not be''.

''Peace is seeing a sunset and knowing who to thank''. ''The happiest people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the best of everything they have''.

''Life isn't about how to survive the storm but how to dance in the rain''.

Asalamu alaikum Brothers and Sisters,
I just moved up to the Chicagoland area and am in search of a job as a Speech-Language Pathologist. Does anyone know of any openings? Or ideas of where to start looking? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The British Medical Journal study found 1 in 10 people - and nearly half of all younger women - had a body piercing other than on the earlobe.

Just over a quarter of people reported complications, including swelling, infection and bleeding.

Many avoided specialist clinics, adding to the risk by piercing themselves or trusting friends or relatives.

Non-specialist piercings could also mean hepatitis infection, Experts said.

I can't say I've ever heard of anything like this before, but for a decorative bit of jewellery it's not worth the risk.
