Cold Showers for Elder
A friend of mine told me about her co-caregiver friend Marge who was scratched by the old lady when she was giving her a shower. Ay nako napaka-crazy ng matandang yon alam mo ba kung pano mo papaliguan bilang isang caregiver?
I told her most old folks doesnt like to take a shower kasi mahina na ang circulation nila kaya lamigin. Pero all you have to do: 1) have the shower ready sa warm, wag mong timplahin ang tubing at paghintayin mo ang matanda sa loob ng tub kasi pag tinalsikan ng unang buhos na malamig na tubig tatakbo yon; 2) kumuha ka ng dalawang platic cups yong isa paghaluin mo na ang liquid soap at warm water at yong isa baby shmpoo at warm water ilagay sa tabi para madali mong abutin; 3) handa mo na sa gilid ang dalawang towel. Then pag nasa tub or bath chair if neccesarry na ang matanda unahin mong sabuhin ng nakahandang sabon sa cup at balawan kaagan huli na ang pagshampoo kasi pag-inuna mo hahapdi ang mata. Do it as quickly as posible then later on a little bit longer hanggang masanay at magustuhan na matanda ang ligo.

Programs or Politics
It was flattering when a blog about me to run for Governor because I got the dollars so deri na ako mangangawat posted at Catbalogan.com site. Anay daw, an kawatan kawatan maski ito hiya pagkwentasan hin bulawa mangangawat la gihap. Aada ito han upbringing ngan han iya guinbuhat tikan han kabata.
It would be hypocritical to say that I hate politics… for those young enough to know I run for SB during the KBL days and I work with Governor Ricalde. But time has change my idea of politics so as my values hopes and aspiration.
Example 1… I rather plan or do things that won’t envolve the government and deal with private sector… like catbalogan.com as an a way to reform thru information.
Example 2… get the help of the people around the world since they are more susceptible to change and has more open minded
Example 3… give away cultural and educational contest such essay and blogs.
But to be honest what are my aspiration and plans?
1) Wellness program: Health is wealth
2) Economic thru tourism: Caves and Falls
3) Invironment and Ecology preservation imphasis on local economy:Dynamite fishing.
4) Economic dispersal: Rural trust
5) Justice for all thru education: NPA Problem.
6) Transparency Transparency Transparency: Corruption
These are not just ideas I have plans to make this a really? Email me or call me I’ll discuss it with you.
