Harmful Mold & Mildew
1st Priority Restoration Keeps it Under Control, (1-800-617-1112) As we are now in the 3rd week of June, we can feel what the next two months will be like here in south Florida. Heat and humidity, followed by summer rains is something that we are faced with daily – bringing on flooding and the potential for mold and mildew. As many residents continue to brace for the hurricane season, which will occupy much of our time over the next six months - we need to also focus on the rain that poses some of the problems that we fight year round. When it comes to mold and mildew, we cannot take those potential hazards lightly. For people sensitive to mold, inhaling or touching mold spores can cause allergic reactions, including sneezing, runny nose, red eyes, and skin rash. People with serious mold allergies may have more severe reactions, including
FLOODING NIGHTMARE
South Florida Is Horrible When It Comes To Dealing With Heavy Rain By Larry Blustein sfsuntimes@aol.com This Friday signals the official start of summer, but south Floridians have been living with the heat, humidity and rain for the past three weeks. By now, you know we really don’t have seasons - and while it may be a shock to some who just arrived - this is the way it has always been. Our winters are five days, we have no fall and our spring is as hot as summer - with less humidity but still 80 degree temperatures. But whether your lawn needs watering or not, the rains become too intense and alter life. With heavy rains falling this past

week - we are getting a break from the heat and humidity - but unfortunately not from the street flooding. Let’s be honest. Our streets, for the most part, are terrible. The drainage is not good and the amount of cars getting stuck is fine for towing companies but nobody else. “Okay, so this may not be the midwest or other areas that are prone to flooding,” said Kathy Rojas of Hallandale Beach. “But it gets to the point when the rain falls for a day or so, thenthere are some areas that you just cannot get to, and that’s a problem.”

Miracle Leaf Health Center of Hallandale Has Arrived For Those Who Are Seeking Relief And A Better Quality of Life It is easily one of the most discussed topics we have. Medical Marijuana. The mention of it conjures up feelings, some strong and emotional, while others fully understand what’s behind the passage of the bill and what positives it has on so many patients - globally. Ever since Florida voters passed the use of medical marijuana for patients who were looking for a better quality of life, it has taken off in a major way. In actuality, it should take off. If knowledge was king and the real principles of what it does for so many was truly understood, this would indeed
be a better place to live. While it has not been accepted by the “traditional medical community” - and still is viewed by many as a pure “waste of time” - that is where the disconnect is often made and the loss of the factual and physical information in support of how it positively aids in the quality of life for many patients with life-altering ailments. What this is all about is not groundbreaking at all. For those who turn their cheek in a direction other than to learn and fully grasp the properties that marijuana possesses, it is unfortunate because it is essential, for any physician to exhaust
any and all “remedies” that would result in a better quality of life for their patients. NOBODY understands that better than Miracle Leaf Health Centers. What this company stands for is keeping up with what works. With thousands of patients looking for relief from so many ailments, Medical Marijuana has proven to be effective in the overall treatment. Miracle Leaf Center ihas become a premier medical cannabis facility for so many south Florida residents, who are in search of alternative pathways to healthier liv-
