Mother said, she is very talkative at home, but when is in new environment or with new people around her, she will be very quiet.

As a qualified practitioner, it is my responsibility to identify the barriers in…

The paramedics clamored over my grandfather, scolding my grandmother for having not called for help sooner, “If you knew that he was in this condition then why did you not call for…

    Land of the Free As Patrick Henry said in 1775, “Give me liberty or give me death!” The founding fathers of our country gave it all so you and I could have freedom.
