So, we just went through a very scary Medical Emergency with my lovely Dad - he had taken a couple of bad falls, and my Mum was right there to call 911, and the Emergency Healthcare Workers were fantastic, got him right into the hospital - The Peninsula Hospital, out in Saanich, close to Sidney-By-The-Sea, near Victoria, BC, Canada 

All of the doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, everyone involved in his care, were wonderful, and the hospital, itself, was so lovely! One floor, surrounded by beautiful grounds, including a Rose Garden, right in the hospital - how amazing is THAT? So amazing! 

The fast response of my Mother was instrumental in saving my Dad's Life, so that made me VERY aware of the need for an Easy and Quick Response, if there is ever a fall - or other Medical Event. 

I didn't know, before my Dad had taken a bad fall, that a fall could be caused by a sudden lack of breath, difficulty breathing. 

I'd never heard of that, before, so that is something to be aware of, for yourself, your parents, or your grandparents - let's keep everybody safe, happy, and healthy! 

This Medical Care Alert is not dependent on having an iPhone or Cell Phone, Landline, Internet or Wi-Fi, so you can immediately call for help, Contact HELP, anywhere, any time! 

BE ALERT
THE WORLD NEEDS MORE LERTS! ; )
(Little joke for you, there! Lol!)

That is a Game-Changer! Stay Safe! Get Help when you need it! 


The Medical Care Alert, Emergency Response Systems would be very functional for a lot of people, all ages, to be on the safe side!

Measuring Heart Rate could save your life!

This is for Americans, or if you are traveling in the USA, 
United States of America.


Medical Care Alert is a leading, national provider of Personal Emergency Response Systems (PERS) for seniors. 

Unlike other PERS companies, all of our agents are EMT/EMD-certified and based in the USA in three secure monitoring centers.

The next thing that I learned, from being in the hospital, visiting my Father, and seeing how the hospital operated, so-to-speak, it occurred to me that all hospital rooms should have a Bidet in the Bathroom! 

And people who need help in the bathroom, anybody, any age, any ability, but especially folks with Special Needs (I'm a Special Education Teacher, so I'm always thinking about people with Special Needs, and how to make their lives better, and easier, for themselves, and for their families and caretakers!), temporary or otherwise... having more control over yourself, and your personal care needs, is great for personal hygiene, and greater independence!

How to Fix Your Toilet from Overflowing..and Other Yucky Water Problems!

Water Problems

Okay, Water is pouring out of the Dishwasher or a Tap has Burst -- what to do, what to do??

Go to the Furnace Room (Utility Room). Shut Off the Main Water Valves. Turn the Valve Clockwise (to the Right) to Shut them off.

The Main Water Shut-Off Valves look like Large Levers (often Red and Yellow) or in an older home, the Round Knob Handles. They're usually on an Angled Pipe.

The Lever is Open when it is Flush with the Pipe in a Vertical Position.

The Lever is Closed when it is in a Horizontal Position to the Pipe

Call your Plumber.



See the Yellow Lever? That's the Main Water Shut-off Valve.

And now for the Toilet... did you see the Bernie Mac (aaaww, so sad, I miss him...) Episode where Wanda discovers the Toilet Overflowing? It's every woman's worst nightmare (or one of the worst!)...

Well, I can never watch anything without linking it back to my Site in some way, so I immediately asked Dwight (now my ex-husband, but don't worry, we're all fine : ) to please show me how to deal with that... so here are some lovely pictures of the Toilet.


Lever is CLOSED when it is turned to a Horizontal position.

Okay, there's the Toilet. And there's the pipe at the Base of it. See the little Lever?  All you have to do is Turn the Lever Clockwise (To the Right) until it's Horizontal (closed). 


OPEN
Now you will probably still have a bunch of yucky water to clean up, but at least you'll have stopped any more water from coming out.

Try turning the lever back to it's Vertical state, when the water level has gone back to normal in the toilet. Try flushing the toilet. If it works, yahoo, you've solved the problem. If not, try a plunger, turn the water back off... hopefully, it's fixed, by now! Good luck!

Now you can call your Plumber, if you feel like you still need some more help.

Happy Living! Ailsa xox
