Regardless of who you are, a diagnosis of cancer –no matter what type of cancer — is devastating. Cancer can put your normal everyday life on hold for rigorous treat ...

I am down and out with strep throat today – not fun at all. Casey has it too, and we are dragging trying to simultaneously take care of Cullen and not infect him at the same time (knock on wood – he seems fine!). I haven’t had strep since I was a kid, and man – it SUCKS!
But the show must go on, and we need to catch up on the rest of our ...

I had wanted to write an article on CDS (a previous project I worked got me involved in CDSS for quite a fair bit), hence I thought this article from CMIO would serve as a great way to introduce the topic to you readers
Many pharmacy clinical decision-support (CDS) systems don’t always identify well-known, clinically relevant drug- ...

P450 enzymes and “poor metabolizers.”
The finding, published in Science , is a bit arcane to the layperson. The big secret of how the P450 enzyme family metabolizes drugs turns out to be a critical phase change, where an oxygen molecule temporarily joins the mix, forming “Compound I,” a process the scientists documented by cooling the ...

This has been a fucking wild summer. Or year. Or two years. Anyway, I just crave "normal"; I've forgotten what life without medical or legal professionals looks like.
September 11th is an infamous day, and this year it's even more so because it's the first four-way meeting between me, H, and our two lawyers. We've opted for the collaborati ...

Its dark, its wet and I,m cold! And I,m on nights…again! So hopefully it might not be busy. Most sensible people will stay in and watch the T.V. or read a book or just sleep. But if our last job is anything to go by, then perhaps it would be best if all our jobs were outdoors!

Ashes to ashes: Private cremation for pets
by
Dr. Patty Khuly
Posted
Wed 07 Jan 2009 4:31pm
I’ve done the math. 21% of my clients opted to have their pets “privately” cremated in 2008. In 2003, only five years earlier, it was only 15%. It’s clear the demand for this service is on the rise.
In case you’re wondering what this kind of death service entails, “private” cremation means the pet’s corporeal remains are shipped to our local c ...

Well, not the cleverest title but oh well.
I need to begin this post with a prayer request. My friends from Reece's Rainbow, Shelley and Leah and newly adopted Kullen are stranded with not much hope for a way home in Bulgaria. They should be fine until Wednesday as far as their resources go but then it could become difficult. If you can PLEA ...
