She's Baaaaaack!

Hi neighbors,
Sorry for the extended break in Pearl news, but sometimes a girl needs a little time to (and for) herself. :-) There has been a lot going on in the neighborhood over the past month and I will begin posting regularly again to get you up to speed.
Thanks,
Pearlgirl

Why We Live Here
by shooter
A friend recently shared a story with me of how someone she knows told her about a serious illness they had. My friend happened to know of several of this person’s neighbors who had a similar illness and suggested this person get in touch with them. The result was a lunch that offered love and support for this person.
Because someone made the effort someone else received some much needed support. It’s these touches of humanity that make the Pearl a great place to live and remind us how lucky we are to have such caring people around us.

How did we ever exist without them ?
I mean, seriously, people were ok taking medicine with active ingredients derived from horse pee before this ?
And, people actually took hormones thinking that this was good medicine and could prevent health problems ?
And then... and then... what happened ???
Such drama in healthcare-
Once upon a time a woman had a hot flash.
That's right, neighbors... someone had a hot flash, and then someone else discovered that the reason for this was because her ovaries stopped firing off eggs every month.
And, then, someone else named it menopause - and maybe it's a good thing that men will pause in the presence of men-o-pause, because for many women, the symptoms of this change of life quite frankly... suck.
But when did things get so damned complicated ?
I don't know- I went to medical school and residency and into practice thinking, "hey- if you'
