Q. When working in pediatric medicine several years ago, I remember a 3-year-old child who became psychotic because a child psychiatrist gave him methylphenidate (Ritalin). The child did not sleep for three days, and when he was brought into our clinic, he was screaming that snakes were all ...
DEAR HELOISE: I, too, have trouble with the very tiny print on labels. I found a trick that is a lifesaver for this problem. I simply use my phone to take a picture of the label, and I can then enlarge it as big as I want. This is very helpful in stores to read and compare labels while ...
DEAR DR. ROACH: I’m an 80-year-old male who doesn’t drink or smoke, exercises regularly and takes telmisartan for blood pressure and rosuvastatin for cholesterol. I’ve never had any heart issues except for a diagnosis of arteriosclerosis. Five years ago, my calcium score resulted in a ...

Ah, June. School’s out, picnics are in and it’s Turkey Lovers Month. What could be better? Unless you’re a turkey and the lovers turn out to love a good turkey sandwich.
Roll out those crazy, hazy, zany days of summer.
Besides turkeys, June also marks Fight the Filthy Fly Month and ...
I told you so!
Not YOU specifically. Science. I called it in these very pages way back in 2012. It was the only thing that made sense.
Sure, I was a little shaky the time that I insisted that the octopus is the spider of the sea. Maybe my plan to raise a breed of roof goats to keep moss ...
“I’m not a complete idiot,” the sign stated. “Some parts are missing.”
The next sign over read: “If I had a dollar for everything I’ve lost… I’d probably lose that too.”
Mankind’s most popular hobby just might be losing things. I had the statistics to confirm that but, ...
There were no YouTube tutorials to teach me how to drive a tractor. I had to learn the old-fashioned way — Dad yelling at me every time I popped the clutch, bucking him off the sputtering Farmall. Or maybe it was Dad who was sputtering.
The main reason for the lack of video tutorials back in ...
I’ve realized something about myself. I am, unapologetically, a 7 p.m. girl in a 9 p.m. world.
In the winter, this works in my favor. The sun clocks out at 5 p.m., and suddenly my entire personality feels validated. Dinner? Done. Shower? Taken. Comfy clothes? On. By 7 p.m., I’m curled up ...
I’d like to believe we all daydream — just in different ways.
Not always the big, cinematic kind (though I’m not opposed to perfect lighting and a slow walk on the beach), but the quieter ones that slip in between school dropoffs, grocery runs and the emails that somehow multiply when ...
I couldn’t help but wonder…when did “Who are you?” become a job interview?
Not the kind where you sit across from someone in a stiff chair, but the everyday version. The one that happens in passing. At events. In line for coffee. In those in-between moments where two humans meet and, ...
I found myself the other day doing something I never thought I’d do — Googling, “Where do women my age shop?”
Not for someone else.
For me.
And I just sat there for a second, staring at the screen like it had personally called me out. Because for the longest time, when I said ...
In my earlier years of gardening, I was attracted to and purchased unusual plants. Many of those didn’t survive beyond their first year. As I have “matured,” I have redirected my purchases toward the easy-to-grow natives that feed our local pollinators. The hotter, drier summers have ...

As I watched a woodpecker banging away at a tree, it made me think, why don’t woodpeckers get headaches or suffer brain trauma from all that drumming? So, I looked it up.
Once again, nature has created a miracle that does not allow the woodpecker to get headaches or become dizzy. ...
Our temperatures have continued to fluctuate, but our winter weather will eventually remain colder and the darkness will cause us to bundle up, keeping ourselves warm.
The days are gaining minutes of light in the morning and evening, but it will be a couple of months before we notice ...
