A Flick of the Wrist

Working with an 85-year-old woman recovering from a stroke, I had her visualize lifting her wrist, over and over again, until finally it moved!

Smoking Cessation · 04. July 2020

Stop Smoking Bethesda You know that cigarettes cause cancer, right? But do you know that there are dozens of toxic chemicals in cigarette smoke, most of them added? Why are they added, you ask? I can’t say for sure, but the reasons probably include shelf life, evenness of burning, taste, and (to be cynical) to help absorption of nicotine.

My Lunch with Wendi

I was sure I would recognize Wendi when she came in, and I did; she smiled at my wave, walked briskly over and sat down.

(Froggy could be very disrespectful to adults; he has been blamed for the youth rebellion of the 60s, though I doubt that all of it was his fault.)
