April 20 is Husband Appreciation Day, a day for their partners to show how much their husbands mean to them. For many, that could be a challenge. “It’s human nature to focus on superficial flaws,” says Dr. Noelle Nelson, a psychologist and author of Your Man is Wonderful: How to Appreciate Your Partner, Romance Your Differences, and Love the One You’ve Got (Amazon). “We aren’t able to step back, away from our fault-finding selves, to appreciate the basic qualities in our husbands that help build strong relationships.” Nelson suggests that on Husband Appreciation Day, partners recognize the characteristics of their husbands that they often take for granted. Here are some: “Is he 100 percent, all the time perfect at these? No, but if he follows these characteristics most of the time, you have much to appreciate,” says Nelson. “Focus on what he’s doing right, not on what he’s doing wrong. Voice your appreciation. It shows his caring pleases you. Of course, it’s a two-way street. Partners need to accept one another and provide an emotional climate in which good qualities can flourish.”
National Donate Life Month in April Twenty donors April 1-20 will win $420 gift cards PITTSBURGH, PA (March 26, 2024) — Every two seconds, a patient in the U.S. needs blood. During National Donate Life Month in April, nonprofit Vitalant urges eligible donors to give blood and help support patients including those who undergo more than 40,000 organ transplants each year. Jen Lentini was a teenager when she underwent a heart transplant. She needed blood transfusions before and during the surgery, and in the years since, blood donations have continued to help her fight anemia. “Whether you’re a blood or organ donor – you’re not just impacting the person receiving the blood or a transplant, you’re impacting everyone they’re going to meet in their life,” Lentini said. “Every story, every adventure. You’re saving someone’s child, their relative, their friend.” A robust blood supply must be ready for patients every day before it’s needed. Donors of every blood type are vital to maintaining the supply, especially those with the most-transfused type O. As special thanks, all donors who give with Vitalant April 1-20 who opt-in to the Donor Rewards program will be entered into a drawing for 20 winners of $420 gift…

I was lucky enough to be able to talk one-on-one with America’s Top Psychic Medium Matt Fraser today. He’s so down to earth, and very sweet. He makes you feel like you’re family. He’s going to be in Pennsylvania, and I’ll be going to his live Event Saturday, August 12 at the Palace Theatre Greensburg, PA. I’m so excited to see him in person. I have been doing online readings with him for a while now, but to see him in person will be a great experience. Tickets are available at: https://thepalacetheatre.my.salesforce-sites.com/ticket/#/events/a0S4v00000as002EAA If you don’t know who Matt Fraser is, take the chance to watch videos on YouTube. He’s so in depth, and really connects you with your loved ones. He’s connected me with my uncle twice. He’s told me things that only family knows. He’s got the touch and he knows how to use it. He told me in our interview that it can take up to a year to hear from someone or for the spirit to communicate fully. It could also be quicker depending on if the person knew they were passing. Once the spirit delivers the message they wanted to get across, he said the spirit will step away. But,…

Paws of War, an organization helping military members and veterans, has trained hundreds of dogs for veterans, many suffering with PTSD NESCONSET, New York – (June 23, 2023) – June 27th is National PTSD Awareness Day, making it an ideal time to put the condition in the spotlight. According to the American Psychiatric Association, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) affects around 3.5% of the adult population yearly. They estimate that 1 in every 11 people will be diagnosed with it during their lifetime, with veterans suffering from PTSD at a much higher rate. There are various ways to cope with the condition, and one organization is helping do just that by pairing veterans with PTSD with service dogs, having given hundreds of trained dogs to veterans to date. “Veterans tend to suffer from PTSD at a significantly higher rate than the general population,” says Robert Misseri, co-founder of Paws of War. “This reminds us that freedom isn’t free. Many military members develop PTSD while on deployment and the effects come home with them. We are doing everything we can to help them through our many support programs. These veterans come home to a new war, this time the war is with PTSD.” Since being…
