Sooner is better

Over time, reduced stimulation to your ears and brain can actually impair the brain’s ability to process sound and recognize speech. The more speech recognition deteriorates, the more difficult it may be to recover. When you can’t hear what’s going on around you, your mental sharpness suffers.

The sooner you take action, the sooner you are able to put a stop to the negative effects of hearing loss, and the sooner you may begin to regain sharpness, confidence and control.

Seven reasons to treat hearing loss Research by the non-profit National Council on Aging concluded that hearing loss treatment is shown to: 1. Improve earning power 2. Improve communication in relationships 3. Improve intimacy and warmth in family relationships

4. Improve ease in communication 5. Improve emotional stability 6. Improve sense of control over life events 7. Improve physical health

We Can Help If you think you or someone you know has hearing loss, the next step is an easy one.

Contact Brandon Harris for the care and expertise you deserve.

Aquaman Water Treatment Systems: The Only True Protector We all need water to survive. It is essential to every plant and animal on this Earth. It is, therefore, imperative that we are supplied with safe, clean water in our homes, businesses, and public arenas.

customer service. A perfect 5-Star Google-reviewed company, Aquaman ensures that each client becomes a part of their family. For that reason, the job is never finished until the customer is completely satisfied.

According to the South Florida Water Management District, “About 90% of Florida’s drinking water is provided by aquifers.” Aquifers are huge, underground rocks made of porous limestone that contain a large amount of freshwater, which is replenished by rain. That freshwater is pumped up to the surface and used for public consumption. It is not a perfect science because aquifer water is easily contaminated.

The Aquaman Water Treatment Systems team is one of the few that has been trained in how to properly size a water system for homes and commercial businesses.

They take the time to make sure that their customers get exactly what they need for a cleaner, better water supply.

According to the Southern Regional Water Program, “Florida’s unique features of a thin soil layer, high water table, porous limestone, and large quantities of rainfall coupled with rapid population growth, result in a groundwater resource extremely vulnerable to contamination.” What that all means is that chemicals from various manufacturers and microbial contaminants can easily enter our aquifer water. The most common aquifer contaminants include dry cleaning solvents, leaking underground gasoline storage tanks, and pesticides…. Hey, Aquaman!

Aquaman Water Treatment Systems offer a variety of solutions that can help reduce specific contaminants in your water supply and provide your home and/or business with cleaner, better water. Locally owned and operated by Miles Thomas, Aquaman’s main objective is not to sell you a water treatment system, but to sell you a lifestyle.

Welcome to Aquaman’s Family Miles Thomas’ father started in the water treatment business when he opened Home Distillers in 1992. Later, in 2006, Miles took over the company and changed the name to Aquaman Water Treatment Systems. Since then, he has maintained the company as a thriving family business in South and Central Florida.

Miles has over 25 years of experience in treating residential and commercial water, but most importantly, he and his trained technicians are dedicated to providing quality 34

A Complete Line of Services Aquaman specializes in purifying both city and well water. Regardless of the type of water, though, its job is to regulate our body temperature and moisten tissue in the eyes, nose, and mouth. In addition, water protects our bodies, organs, and tissues, and carries oxygen and nutrients to cells.

Water is not designed to provide us with minerals. Mineral supply is the role of food, not water. The minerals in water are called inorganic minerals, which means that they are not the same as the organic minerals found in red meat, fruits, vegetables, milk, etc. These inorganic minerals are not naturally absorbed in our cells and, unfortunately, get deposited elsewhere in our bodies.

In addition, for pet owners, we are always concerned about keeping our pets healthy. Giving them filtered water for hydration helps to keep them from being exposed to contaminants, and even parasites, that may be present in tap water, which can cause serious illness.

To keep your family and pets safe, Aquaman offers a whole-house carbon and water softener that will reduce unnecessary chemicals that are added or found naturally in your water.

The whole-house water softener will remove the inorganic minerals in the water and start protecting any appliance or piping in your home, also causing the water to feel nice and soft when you shower. Miles states, “My team and I will always properly remove

whatever new contamination might float your way.”

With the purchase of a whole-house carbon and water softener from Aquaman Water Treatment Systems, customers can enjoy the benefits of a point-of-use, four-stage reverse osmosis system installed free of charge! This system is a water filtration device that is connected to a single fixture, usually a kitchen sink, and uses the process of reverse osmosis to remove contaminants from the water that is supplied to that fixture. Aquaman Water Treatment Systems will provide monthly and annual maintenance services on installed units. They know that their customers lead busy lives, so they make it convenient and will contact them whenever a service is needed so that they can live worry-free!

For What It’s Worth Hi. Me again, continuing my theme of what to expect when going to the hospital.

Remember how nice hospital beds used to be? The mattresses were thick and plush, and when the head and foot of the mattress was raised, it was like lying in a comfortable cocoon of security, knowing that all your medical needs were going to be taken care of. Well, sorry to tell you, but not anymore. The last hospital bed I spent three nights on was no thicker than a blowup mattress, and twice as hard. The blankets were coarse and threadbare, and the sheets were starched and smelled like Clorox. As if it wasn’t bad enough to be in pain, or recuperating from surgery, it was almost a relief to think about doing self-care at home, than to endure the discomfort of a no-frills hospital. I say this with all respect, and I believe I can say it, considering that I spent many years as a hospital nurse meeting my patient’s needs and making them as comfortable as possible.

38

VOL. 547 J

by Dr. Melfi, Ph.D.

I’m not sure when all comfort was tossed out the window, but surely hospitals must be making some type of profit, what with the room rates, medication charges, and charges for doctors who pop their heads in, most of whom you have never met and will never meet again, and who charge exorbitant rates to your insurance. Let’s take hospital gowns, for instance. For those of you who have never had the pleasure of trying to sleep in one, I’d be happy to describe the experience. The neck of the gown has a tendency to ride up and strangle you while you lie helplessly in your bed, the back of which is opened to the air, and bunches up underneath your back as you try to get comfortable. Surely, there must be a more comfortable material than military-grade fabric to make your sleeping a little more pleasurable, and if someone could possibly figure out, in the twenty-first century, that velcro closures might be more comfortable than lying on knots of string, it would be a step in the right direction.

Throughout all this, one must keep up their cheery disposition, and compliment the staff, especially if you want to later ask for a favor, such as an extra blanket or a cup of tea. It is not easy being a patient, not easy realizing that your body has begun to betray you with aches and pains, and not easy to remain stoic in the face of unnecessary discomfort, but For What its Worth, I think there is an entire revamping of the system than needs to be addressed.

However, I raise a glass to the doctors and nurses who keep us alive despite being overworked and under-staffed.

Good job!

Comfort Food for the Soul Eating at Mable’s Place Southern Cooking brought back the Appalachian in me... I left saying “ya’ll” and “bless your heart” as frequently as when I lived in southwestern Virginia because the food and the atmosphere at Mable’s was so genuine.

This authenticity makes sense because at Mable’s Place you’ll find three generations worth of Southern soul food recipes!

You don’t just eat at Mable’s Place, you experience. You either order a basket meal or build your own meal by choosing which meat, rice, bread, and 2 sides you would like on your plate. Mable’s Place offers chicken, pork chops, turkey wings, neck bones, and fish every day, and has daily meat specials.

Abby and I both built our own meals.

The special meat of the day was brown stew steak, so Abby ordered that along with gravy, yellow rice, cornbread, collard greens, and lima beans ($14.95). I went with the fried chicken, gravy, white rice, corn bread, macaroni & cheese, and green beans ($13.95).

Abby’s brown stew steak fell off the bone because it was so tender! She said, “this is amazing. You can tell that it was made with heart and soul.”

My fried chicken was incredible! I tore off a piece from the breast and juice literally ran down my hand. How did they make something fried into something so succulent? Also, I don’t know about you, but I don’t like my fried chicken with thick breading because it takes away from the flavor of the meat. Well, no worries about that issue at Mable’s Place… the breading on the fried chicken was just enough to add an extra layer of spice without stealing the show from the superstar chicken!

44

VOL. 547 J

Is it possible for a vegetable to taste like...something better than a vegetable? Because Abby’s collard greens and lima beans, as well as my green beans, tasted so good that we actually ate every last bite of them.

My green beans not only tasted like green beans, but also had lovely notes of sweetness and saltiness. And, Abby’s collard greens were balanced with the perfect amount of vinegar and spice. Mable’s Place even cooks vegetables with gusto!

Then, there was the macaroni & cheese. Frankly, I cannot put into print what I would like to say because some might find it a bit off-color, so suffice it to say that I died and went to heaven when I ate Mable’s Place’s mac & cheese. I’m formally requesting that the restaurant start selling it in a large to-go vat so that I can eat it whenever I please (i.e. every day).

I could talk about Mable’s Place until the cows come home (e.g. I’m begging you to try the cornbread… it’s divine), but there’s only so much room on these pages. So, I’ll just say this-- ya’ll should be fixin’ to eat at Mable’s Place Southern Cooking as soon as possible.

I promise you’ll find incredible comfort food that will feed your stomach and your soul!
