My hands are aging, like the rest of me. I like to try and keep them as young looking as possible, so I keep my nails manicured and my skin exfoliated. Usually, I use whatever regular skin scrub I have in the house, but one day I was looking at …

I was born asthmatic. Unfortunately, my husband was, too. But it didn’t keep us from being attracted to each other and eventually got married. So as expected, following Law of Genetics, our daughter has it too.
At an early age of 3-months, asthmatic symptoms were already showing. We brought her …

What I hate most about summers are the bugs. I can not stand the insects, especially the mosquitoes, they are absolutely merciless! Even in an urbanized area with air conditioning and tightly sealed off areas, the mosquitoes find some way to bite you. Imagine how I must have felt …
