Every year 891,000 people die from bone and joint diseases in the Philippines. As of early 2023, 85% of Filipinos over 40 years old will have osteoarthritis and 37% of them will die by the age of 70. That is a terrible number to warn everyone to pay attention to their health.

If you discover that you have the following symptoms: Joint pain when moving, joint stiffness, pain in the joints in the arms, legs, neck and spine, disc herniation, the body is often tired even when not motor. It is very likely that you have osteoarthritis and if not treated, it will lead to bone necrosis and loss of mobility.

Robin Williams took his own life because he was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia. Bruce Willis just learned that his illness is Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) and Lewy Body Dementia. One of the hardest things to process is the slow change in the one you love. Becoming a completely different person. Everything changes. Just so you know...😢 It’s called the long goodbye. Rapidly shrinking brain is how a doctor described it. As the patient's brain slowly dies, they change physically and eventually forget who their loved ones are and become less themselves. Patients can eventually become bedridden, unable to move and unable to eat or drink or talk to their loved ones. There will be people who will scroll by this message because Dementia or Alzheimer's has not touched them. They may not know what it's like to have a loved one who has fought or is fighting a battle against Dementia or Alzheimer's.

For the persons we all know..

With the side effects of chemo and radiation, you will never be 100% again because your immune system is weak. Ruins marriages, families and relationships with friends. Because you're not the same again after cancer and treatments.
In the hardest moments you know who your real friends are or who the people are who appreciate you.
Unfortunately, like with most friendships, Facebook friends will leave you in the middle of a story. They want a post to ′′like′′ for the story, but they don't really read your message when they see it is long.
More than half have stopped reading. Someone may have already gone to the next post in their newsfeed.
I have decided to publish this post in support of close family, friends and relatives who have fought this horrible disease.
Now I'm focusing on those who take the time to read this post to the end ... a little test, just to see who reads and who shares without reading.
Cancer is a very aggressive and destructive enemy of our bodies.
Even after treatment, the body is devastated. It's a very long process.
I would like to know who I can count on and who takes the time to read this.
When you have finished this, write ′′Done′′ in the comments.
Sadly, cancer is still the illness of the century.
Please, in honour of someone who died, or who is battling cancer.
Everyone says, ′′If you need anything, don't hesitate: I'll be there for you.′′ So I'm going to make a bet, without being pessimistic:
It's awareness month for this disease. I did it for someone very very special! We all know someone who stood before us, and who has fought or who is fighting this battle as well as even those we have lost.

💜 Understanding Deconditioning Syndrome

Have you heard about Deconditioning Syndrome? It's a common condition that occurs when a person's physical fitness declines due to prolonged periods of inactivity or reduced physical activity levels. Let's take a closer look at this important topic.

What is Deconditioning Syndrome? Deconditioning Syndrome refers to the physiological changes that happen in our bodies when we lead sedentary lifestyles or experience extended periods of reduced physical activity. This can occur due to illness, injury, or even prolonged bed rest.

Signs and Symptoms:
Muscle Weakness: Lack of regular exercise can cause muscles to lose strength and mass, making everyday activities more challenging.
Reduced Endurance: When we don't engage in regular aerobic activities, our cardiovascular fitness can decline, leading to decreased endurance levels.
Loss of Flexibility: Inactivity can cause our muscles and joints to become stiff, leading to decreased flexibility and range of motion.
Balance and Coordination Issues: Without regular exercise, our balance and coordination may suffer, increasing the risk of falls and accidents.

Preventing Deconditioning: The good news is that deconditioning can be prevented or reversed! Here are a few tips to stay active and maintain your physical fitness:
Stay Active: Engage in regular physical activity, including strength training, cardiovascular exercises, and flexibility exercises.
Set Goals: Establish realistic fitness goals and work towards achieving them gradually.
Incorporate Movement: Find opportunities to incorporate movement throughout your day, like taking short walks or stretching breaks.
Seek Professional Guidance: Consult with a physical therapist to design a personalized exercise program that suits your needs and abilities.

Stay Fit, Stay Healthy! Don't let deconditioning syndrome hold you back. By staying active and making exercise a priority, you can maintain your physical fitness and overall well-being. Remember, small steps can lead to big results!

If you have any questions or want to learn more about deconditioning syndrome and how physical therapy can help, feel free to reach out. We're here to support you on your journey to better health. 💜

Truth of life:

1. You're going to die and you have no idea when.

Stop pretending that you're invincible. Acknowledge the fact of your own mortality, and then start structuring your life in a more meaningful way.

2. Your material wealth won't make you a better or happier person.

Even if you're one of the lucky ones who achieves his or her materialistic dreams, money only amplifies that which was already present.

3. Your obsession with finding happiness is what prevents its attainment.

Happiness is always present in your life--it's just a matter of connecting to it and allowing it to flow through you that's challenging.

4. Donating money does less than donating time.

Giving your time is a way to change your perception and create a memory for yourself and others that will last forever.

5. You can't make everyone happy, and if you try, you'll lose yourself.

Stop trying to please, and start respecting your values, principles, and autonomy.

6. Your achievements and successes won't matter on your deathbed.

When your time has come to transition from this reality, you won't be thinking about that raise; you'll be thinking about the relationships you've made--so start acting accordingly.

7. Your talent means nothing without consistent effort and practice.

Some of the most talented people in the world never move out from their parent's basement.

8. Nobody cares how difficult your life is, and you are the author of your life's story.

Stop looking for people to give you sympathy and start creating the life story you want to read.

9. Investing in yourself isn't selfish. It's the most worthwhile thing you can do.

You have to put on your own gas mask to save the person sitting right next to you.

10. Time is your most valuable asset--you need to prioritize how you spend it.

Stroke

Ang Stroke ay nanatiling pangalawang dahilan ng pagkamatay ng mga Pilipino, ito ay ayon sa pag aaral nila ME. V. Collantes et al.

Ngunit ano nga ba ang Stroke?
Ang Stroke ay isang condition kung saan ang isang bahagi ng ating utak ay nagkakaroon ng biglaan ngunit permanenteng sira dahil sa pagbabara ng ugat o pagdudugo sa loob ng utak (De Lisa).

Anong nangyayari sa katawan ng taong na-Stroke?
Ang taong na-Stroke ay may iba’t ibang reaksyon ang katawan. Ito ay depende kung saang bahagi ng utak na-Stroke at kung anong ugat (Ferri). Pero karamihan ng na-Stroke ay nagiging paralisado ang kalahati ng katawan. Depende rin ang pagkalala nito. Maaring mild lamang, moderate o severe.

Ano ang dapat gawin pagkatapos ma-Stroke?
Nararapat lamang na magpatingin sa Doctor ang taong na-Stroke upang siya ay masuri at mabigyan ng lunas. Nararapat lang din na pumunta sa isang Physical Therapist, para sila ay matulungan maka-recover.

Alam niyo ba na ayon sa pag aaral nila Pakaratee et al., ay maganda ang nagiging recovery ng pasyenteng na stroke pag nasimulan agad ang kanyang therapy (first 3 months)? Sabi pa sa kanilang pag aaral, mas gusto ng mga pasyente na magpa-therapy sa kanilang mga bahay dahil sila ay mas komportable at hindi na kailangan pang mag byahe. Mas naituturo rin ng therapist sa mga pasyente kung paano sila kikilos sa kanilang bahay at kung paano nila magagawa ang mga pang araw araw na gawain tulad ng kumain, maligo, magbanyo, maglakad at iba pa matapos magkaroon ng stroke.

A Blessed Sunday everyone

Hypoxia is low levels of oxygen in your body tissues. It causes symptoms like confusion, restlessness, difficulty breathing, rapid heart rate, and bluish skin.

Human beings are of four types:

1. A man who knows, and knows that he knows. This is the scholar, so take and patiently learn from him.

2. A man who knows, but does not know that he knows. This one has forgotten, so quietly remind him.

3. A man who does not know, and knows that he does not know. This one is a student, so teach him continuously because he will be a great scholar one day.

4. A man who does not know, and does not know that he does not know and isn’t even interested in knowing. This one is an idiot, so reject him".
