Medical Shopping

By Heart2Heart | Health and Fitness, Shopping, Travel | No Comments

In the States, you can find anything and everything! This trip, James, Dina and I went around shopping for things for Dad.

First stop was this place which Isa recommended

They have all kinds of things to aid the elderly. Amazing!

Then we went to Sleep Train which specializes in mattresses

We were looking at beds that can go up and down like a hospital bed 🙂

We love Stearns and Foster, the one who makes the mattresses for the Four Seasons Hotel

Previous entry: Mattress from the Four Seasons Hotel January 6, 2012

In the States there are so many choices to make. I don’t know if that is good or it just complicates our purchase 🙂

Next stop Lazboy 🙂

Our salesman 🙂

We got this lazboy because it lifts so it is easier to get up!

And then we went to check out wheelchairs 🙂 Believe me when I say they have everything!

This was a place just selling wheelchairs- ALL KINDS!

The owner of the place 🙂 He told us they can customize any kind of wheelchair – the size, the kind, the color – you name it. He even said there is a wheelchair that costs US$ 20,000!

They can even do this for your car!

My Morning with Lolo

By Heart2Heart | Foodie, Health and Fitness | 4 Comments

I love love spending time with my Lolo. One morning I came early enough ( 7am ) to have breakfast with him. My Lolo is not only Ambassador but to me he is King! Because everyone around him pampers and takes care of him 🙂

How nice the sounds of the lovebirds. We had them as our background for breakfast 🙂

Wow!! We actually had a breakfast menu!! Conchita came to me and asked me what I wanted for breakfast. I was hoping I could have everything on the list! haha!! Lolo checked the things he liked 🙂

And this was mine! WOW! I loved it! This is Lucban longganisa from Bacolod. Yum with garlic rice and quesong puti! I had that quesong puti cooked a little bit more

After breakfast we went around the house to visit Lolo’s other pets – his turtles, more birds and his doves. He built cages and houses for them

At 9am we went to Polo Club gym for his workout with the best personal trainer, Ned 🙂 Thanks to my cousin Nina for arranging this. Lolo was so excited for his workout – he kept asking what time his workout was and so we left earlier than schedule

Warming up

Bicep curls! My Lolo is so strong! He is 91 years old and believe me – he is very strong and very sharp! I feel so guilty I now have to workout harder! haha

Lolo stretching after an hour workout. He told me he could do another 30 minutes!! WOW!! He is already looking forward to his next workout 🙂 Thank you Ned for watching over Lolo’s health

Air Purifying House Plants

By Heart2Heart | Green, Health and Fitness, Household Tips | No Comments

6 Air Purifing house plants

1. Bamboo Palm: According to NASA, it removes formaldahyde and is also said to act as a natural humidifier.

2. Snake Plant: Found by NASA to absorb nitrogen oxides and formaldahyde.

3. Areca Palm: One of the best air purifying plants for general air cleanliness.

4. Spider Plant: Great indoor plant for removing carbon monoxide and other toxins or impurities. Spider plants are one of three plants NASA deems best at removing formaldahyde from the air.

5. Peace Lily: Peace lilies could be called the “clean-all.” They’re often placed in bathrooms or laundry rooms because they’re known for removing mold spores. Also know to remove formaldahyde and trichloroethylene.

6. Gerbera Daisy: Not only do these gorgeous flowers remove benzene from the air, they’re known to improve sleep by absorbing carbon dioxide and giving off more oxygen over night.

The World’s Best Toothpick!

By Heart2Heart | Great Inventions, Health and Fitness | One Comment

I received this great invention from my cousin, Ana. And now I am addicted to it too!! So now it is one of Heart2Heart’s favorite things, and you can get it at the store!!! WOOHOO!! It’s very reasonable – 40 picks for only P 45.00! I showed this to my sister in law, Dina, who is a dentist and she said it’s a good product but you have to make sure that it is able to get in between the teeth ( higher up ) to avoid getting cavities, or else you still need to floss and reach that part

The World’s Best Toothpick!^®(dental cleaning device)

Here’s more info on the product! It was seen in Oprah’s show!!

Stimulates gums to promote periodontal health
Helps fight gingivitis

Cecille Rabuco MD

By Heart2Heart | Health and Fitness, Tributes, Velada 2012 | No Comments

I was having my annual check up at Medicard and I bumped into my batchmate, Cecille!

I was so happy to see her!!! Kwento kwento kwento…….

I knew she was a gynecologist but I did not know she was assigned to the Medicard I go to, every Monday, Wednesday and Friday! I am so proud of my Assumption batchmates – everyone has become successful in their own field of expertise

Oh my gosh! Then I realized I was scheduled for a papsmear that day and that she was the one going to perform it!!!! YIKES!!!

So I asked to be rescheduled! haha!!! I am shy!!! So I just took her photo by the bed I did not lay down on! 🙂
