Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 I know that it was really hard on my parents and grandparents. It was long before I was born. My parents also a 2 year old boy when it happened. This sister was always talked about and I could really have used a sister more than once in my life. My 27 year old son just had the tonsillectomy and a bunch of other surgery in that area. I felt I should have been with him, but was extremely grateful that he asked but to come the day after the surgery. I didn't want him to see my fear. For him it was a great choice. He sleeps and can actually rest and doesn't sound like a freight train going through the house all night. So, maybe it is like so much of what we do, we have to remember medicine as well as nutrition is not a one size fits all.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 Actually, I used " holistic " since that's what the person posting the original email used. I think the more accurate/current/correct term is now " functional " or " integrative " . . . holistic has tended to go the wayside amongst MDs, DOs and many RDs. Oh, and " unchristian " ? That IS funny. Jan PS. I'd love to see a study done on obesity and various religion, after I attended some " Christian Science " services and didn't see one overweight people, but attended many Evangelical.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 Glad I could make you laugh . I wasn't thinking about making it Christianized to make a profit, but I guess it could read that way! No, just being unemployed (well, actually employed at 75% as of two days ago, but won't be really working for another 10 days, I'm always thinking about money People would ask me what I wanted to do after my internship and I'd say, find a good job and get rich, rich, rich. They would just laugh and say I'm in the wrong profession. I know I should never have a small business because I feel sorry for the people buying or, in the case of the plants that need a home, the plants, and tend to just want to give things away to good homes. I think it's good I realize this about myself and not attempt to own a business! But, I really do think it should be wholistic, not holistic. Maybe I think that because of my piano teacher chuckling over my theory homework when I was 7 and spelled whole note as " hole note " . At least I learned and remember how to spell and use whole!

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 Hm; , maybe you should look into working for a non-profit organization... To find out if 'wholistic' is available for trademark (which differs from state and federal), you would go to either the state or federal trademark website and simply do a search! My guess is that just the WORD might be available... Here's the fed site to play around in: http://www.uspto.gov/main/trademarks.htm Margie Marjorie Geiser, RD, NSCA-CPT Author of " Just Jump: The No-Fear Business Start-up Guide for Health and Fitness Professionals " http://www.californiabasedpublishing.com http://www.meg-enterprises.com pepperjunkie wrote: > > Glad I could make you laugh .

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 Hm; , maybe you should look into working for a non-profit organization... To find out if 'wholistic' is available for trademark (which differs from state and federal), you would go to either the state or federal trademark website and simply do a search! My guess is that just the WORD might be available... Here's the fed site to play around in: http://www.uspto.gov/main/trademarks.htm Margie Marjorie Geiser, RD, NSCA-CPT Author of " Just Jump: The No-Fear Business Start-up Guide for Health and Fitness Professionals " http://www.californiabasedpublishing.com http://www.meg-enterprises.com pepperjunkie wrote: > > Glad I could make you laugh .
