Women’s History Month
through the eyes of an Airman In 1987, two great things happened: I was born and Women’s History Month was created.
This observance, though just as young as I am, is a constant reminder to me and all Americans of how much women have accomplished and contributed to this country.
Preventative medicine: Real food In November 2012, I woke up with a sore throat and made an appointment with my family physician. After a few tests, the doctor came in the exam room and said I tested positive for strep throat. She was more concerned, however, that my blood pressure was elevated. She requested I monitor my blood pressure and come back in a few weeks to talk about medication if it remained high.
