THANKS FOR SHARING

Gone are the days when our beliefs,and thoughts limited the prevention and management of hypertension.There is no doubt that socio cultural beliefs are difficult to be neutralized,hence some people still have a different perception about hypertension and heart diseases.My family was not different from those people,but now the story has changed.......
 My name is Kofi Arhin,I am 26 years of age.Hypertension and its related complications have ruin my family for the past years.My grandmother who did not only die in the name of uncontrolled high blood pressure and diabetes,genetically passed it on to her children(5 out of 7).One of my uncles died few years ago on account of this unfriendly disease.During my training at the nursing institution,I realized that hypertension runs in the family and  I needed to save my family from these unexpected deaths.Currently, my mum and her four other siblings are under close monitoring and management on hypertension and diabetes.It is not easy at all.As a family,we have learnt our lessons and are keen on living a healthy life.We are tired of these unexpected deaths.Don't just say or think you are too young.You can also be at risk......check your family line.Know your blood pressure  status and live a healthy life.
Thank you.

  1. I was diagnosed as a Hepatitis B carrier back in 2015, with early signs of liver fibrosis. Antiviral meds helped at first, but over time, the virus became resistant, and I started to lose hope.
    In 2021, I came across NaturePath Herbal Clinic (www.naturepathherbalclinic.com) and decided to try their herbal treatment, even though I was skeptical. To my surprise, after six months, my blood tests came back negative for the virus.
    It was honestly life-changing. I never expected such results from a natural treatment, but it gave me a second chance and I believe it could help others too.

JOKE THERAPY

A guy was in love with a girl but never had the guts to tell her. One night around 10, he gathered some courage & sent her a text with these honest words... "Doreen, I love you, Plz reply & tell me how you feel." A few seconds later he received a message alert on his phone. He was so scared and too tensed to open it that night so he decided not to check the message until the next morning when he's less tense and in better senses. So he went to sleep. When he woke up the next day he prayed seriously about the message for good news, went about doing his morning chores, brushed his teeth, ate his breakfast took a bath, dressed himself up then climbed into bed and picked his phone to read the message on his phone. This was the response he read: "Dear customer you have insufficient balance to send this message. Please recharge your account and try again".😄😃😄

THE LITTLE VOICE....

I saw a memo in my office about a blood pressure screening  and education exercise  by Life from 30 but I was never bothered  about it. Just because I'm too young(39yrs) to experience  hypertension. The screening commenced and I saw a lot of people participating. I laughed and said to myself,"people are really sick....even my juniors! ".I didn't take part during the whole process till the last day when a member of the Life from 30 team called me. In fact, I felt reluctant but I heard a voice telling me to go in order to prove to her I'm healthy. As courageous as I was, I had my blood  pressure  checked and I didn't believe the readings after four checks. The least reading was 160/121mmHg.The team educated me and ensured that I was seen by a doctor promptly. After several investigations by the doctor, I was diagnosed of hypertension. I'm  on antihypertensive drugs and on lifestyle modifications. My blood pressure is under control now. I believe so much ...
