Press Release: Your baby’s precious CORD blood can save his precious life

     As mothers, you will do anything for your child. Even way before they are brought into this world, your instincts kick in and you tirelessly worry about your baby. You want to learn everything there is to learn and more importantly, you want to protect them from anything and everything that can harm them be it the common cold or a fever; and if you had your way, you would gladly get sick for your child. And your anxiety is not without reason, since there are many childhood diseases that can be harmful or even fatal to children. 

    Leukemia is perhaps the most common type of cancer compromising 47.8% of all childhood cancers1. Hodgkin’s Disease1 or non-Hodgkin Lymphoma is the third childhood cancer comprising 9% of childhood cancer. Aside from these types of cancers, certain brain disorders are also common in children. These include cerebral palsy and neuroblastoma. Cerebral palsy severely impairs the development of the motor functions and afflicts 1-2 percent of the Philippine population2. Neuroblastoma, on the other hand, causes the sufferer to lose the ability to empty the bladder, experience paralysis of the hips, feet, legs and uncontrolled movement.

     Research into the use of cord blood and cord lining stem cells have been ongoing since the 1980s and has shown promise of saving lives and treating life-threatening diseases. More than 30,000 cord blood stem cell transplants3 have already been performed since 1988. To know more about Cordlife, click CONTINUE READING please.

Declutter Your Home the Mandaue Foam Furniture Way!

   I admit it, I’m an OC mom! My father should be blamed for that but its okay since this OC-ness have positive outcome when it comes to organizing things. May it be personal stuff, my son’s toys and the things inside our room. I have this thing for cleanliness that I can’t explain. I can’t leave the house if a single thing is not in their proper place. So what I do most of the time is Declutter! If I think I see a thing that I think should be in the trash, expect to see it in the trash right away. 

   Decluttering is a great way to keep your home clean and in perfect order. It allows you to manage the movement around the house and ensure that there is, as they say, “a place for everything, and everything in its place.” To know more tips from Mandaue Foam Furniture, click CONTINUE READING.

Declutter Your Home the Mandaue Form Furniture Way!

   Start by sorting through the clutter then classifying it according to two categories: Items you’ll keep or let go. Remember that the reason you declutter is to have a clean and comfortable home. Do it by keeping only household items that you need like things you use on a regular basis and get rid of clutter that’s making your home untidy.

   For things that you no longer need: you can donate, sell or dispose it. Be it back issues of magazines or clothes you’ve outgrown, let go of unnecessary items that would only turn into a clutter. 

   For household items you’ll keep, organize it accordingly with the storage pieces like cabinets, bookcases, racks and wardrobes. These items allow you to put every item in place and utilize space for other furniture pieces. If every item in your home is organized, it will be a lot easier for you to find things you need for you know exactly where you can find it. 

   One great rule in decluttering is to sort out things one at a time. Start with a room in your home then you can take it from there. You might encounter hurdles like letting go of household items you have for years but when you do it little by little, it will be easy to decide on what to keep and what not as you go along the way.

   By decluttering, you can let go of what you don’t need, leaving only a sanctuary that invigorates and gives peace of mind – the house you’d love to come home to.

   Mandaue Foam Furniture Store offers a wide variety of storage items like cabinets, bureau drawers, wardrobe, racks and bookcases.

Aksyon Laban sa Dengue with GlaxoSmithKline's Paracetamol Calpol Event

     It's rainy season again and I'm sure that mothers like me feared one thing- Dengue Fever! Yes, I associate rainy season with this dreadful disease because I became a victim too not once but twice! I had dengue fever when I was in grade school and in college. Dengue fever during my elementary days (1994) was not as scary as today because there's only one stage. Even though it's not as scary today, I was admitted at the hospital and was confined and monitored from time to time because my platelet was going down. Antibiotics and paracetamol was given and thank God that I survived. The second incident was worse because aside from the symptoms that I felt when I was 10 years old, new symptoms emerge like nose bleed, bruises and vomiting.

     If my memory serves me right, the last Dengue Fever I had scared the hell out of me. I was confined in the hospital and was delusional that time. This disease is really scary and should be taken seriously because there's no known cure until now. Affected children are the ones who suffered too much because they don't know that a single bit of the female mosquito can threaten their lives.

     That's why when I was invited to the Aksyon Laban sa Dengue with GlaxoSmithKline's Paracetamol Calpol Event last August 29, I didn't hesitate and said yes to the invitation. I'm aware that Dengue Fever already evolved from different stages that's why I need to hear factual information from the experts in this field. This is a very serious matter dearies so to know more about Dengue Fever management and the campaign of DOH to fight this disease, click CONTINUE READING and let's help in spreading the awareness!

     Hello dearies! How's your Monday? I hope every thing is fine :) Let's talk about Oral health today.
