My husband an I offset the high costs of living by living a Frugal Life Style. Frugal doesn't equal cheap, it means that if you don't needed it you don't buy it, and if you don't use it you get rid of it. Getting rid of Clutter makes you fell wealthier.
If you are in debt and are ready to get out then check out Dave Ramsey. He has workable plans to get you out of debt. No magic scams here, it takes real work and commitment to be debt free.
I use to listen to Dave on the radio or his web site daily, until I realized that he was not living what he preached. People in their fifties and up would call up complaining about losing their jobs, hence putting them into debut, due to age discrimination. Dave said this did not happen, yet he also said the average age of his own staff was only 27 years old. I've not listened since then. However his advice is still good if you need to get out of debt.
Proverbs 22:7: The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.
Romans 13:8: Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
Timothy 6:10: For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, in their eagerness to get rich, have wandered away from the faith and caused themselves a lot of pain.
Traumatic brain injury is usually the result of a sudden, violent blow to the head, in my case hitting the left side of my head on the car door jamb during my car accident. Such violent blows causes the brain to collide with the inside of the skull. This collision can bruise the brain, tear nerve fibers and cause bleeding. The severity of traumatic brain injury can vary greatly. A mild traumatic brain injury may cause temporary confusion and headache, but a serious one can be fatal.
It is to bad that it takes the death of a "Star" for people to bring attention to this under studied area of health care. One of the few places that I do know of, that has been studying this area for a long time is Body Mind Publications. They originally started as Whiplash Review many years ago.
In the video’s below, Dr. William Freeman, Neurologic Critical Care Director at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida, and Dr. Allen Brown of Mayo Clinic’s Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation discuss Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI):
"Mayo Clinic research shows a correlation between inadequate vitamin D levels and the amount of narcotic medication taken by patients who have chronic pain. This correlation is an important finding as researchers discover new ways to treat chronic pain."

“Vitamin D is known to promote both bone and muscle strength. Conversely, deficiency is an under-recognized source of diffuse pain and impaired neuromuscular functioning. By recognizing it, physicians can significantly improve their patients’ pain, function and quality of life.”
