Dear Viewers,
 Peace to all in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Proverbs 3:5 states, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, on your own intelligence rely not; In all you work be mindful of him, and he will make straight your paths." February is Heart Month, St Blaise Day for blessing of throats, and St Valentine's Day. There are only 28 days to accomplish what 31 days take otherwise. |

Let us focus on brain aneurysms this month. A brain aneurysm refers to a weak bulging spot on the wall of the
brain artery.
Some of the factors that doctors and researchers think contribute to the formation of aneurysms are, smoking, hypertension, traumatic head injuries, alcohol use, oral contraceptive use, family history of aneurysms and other inherited disorders as Mar Fan's Syndrome and Ehler's Syndrome to name some. Most aneurysms form in the front of the brain and occur more in women then in men. (www.bafound.org) More information can be obtained by contacting the foundation at 617-723-3870. Some things people can do is see your health care provider if you have a history of this in your family, Lead a healthy life style. Reread the factors stated above and consult your health care provider.. As always pray and attend the church of your choice. HAPPY ST. VALENTINE'S DAY. February 5th is the feast day of St Agatha, the patron saint of nurses. Matthew 7:7 states, "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." | |
