Health Bloggers: Do you ever worry about posts or pictures coming back to haunt you?

This particular article that I read today applied to Facebook, but it got me thinking about my blog. Do we really know who is reading it and what they are actually doing with the information that we are putting out there? In this article a Canadian woman had her long term sick leave for depression revoked because her insurance company found photos of her on Facebook that showed her "having… Continue

Asthma Bloggers: Share your tips for safe holiday travel

Over the river and through the woods can be a wonderful adventure, unless you suffer from asthma. Once you leave your safe, comfortable environment, triggers may lurk all around you.

Last year I wrote Surviving the holidays with allergies. Many of these suggestions also apply to asthma sufferers.

1. Know your triggers and try to avoid. If pets are your trigger, you may need to avoid a home that has pets.… Continue

The holidays are coming! Does your blog suffer during the holidays?

My blog has already suffered. There just doesn't seem to be enough time in the day to get EVERYTHING done. With Thanksgiving next week and Christmas (or Hanukkah, Winter Solstice, Kwanza) right around the corner, I'm busy and my blog is the first thing that suffers. Something's got to give, right? Or does it....

This time of year is stressful for most people. And if you are suffering from an illness or disease or love someone that… Continue

Tomorrow is World Diabetes Day

November 14, 2009 is World Diabetes Day. What is World Diabetes Day? It's celebrated in over 160 countries and this years theme is "prevention and education".

1. Go blue. This suggestion may be a bit extreme, but you can wear blue tomorrow (as little or as much as you want) to support those with diabetes.

2.… Continue

Thanks for the comment! I'm sorry to say I haven't been keeping up with Wego as much as I would like; HealthCare PSI seems to be gaining momentum and taking on a life of its own and I'm running as fast as I can just to keep up!

The survey was interesting, wasn't it. Confirmed my suspicions about confusing media coverage. I don't know if the message is muddy on purpose, or just from a lack of planning, but it certainly has been confusing!

Have a grand week -

Hi Janeen
Thanks for your comment! Actually, I took the quiz a few minutes ago, and am not sure if I wanna be an health activist community "Mom" at 18! :)

Thanks for checking out my blog, too!
