last few days, we've been to many pressures. Preparing for possible articles, seeing patients last minute and writing reports on the latest "interceptions" of the team. Add to this the latest outrages of our unfortunate and humiliating political class and (dis) government, and see why we are treating more cases of massive depression in our workplaces, dammit!
urgent need vacation ... but on another continent or loss and, on another planet ... I guess.
Step down the aisle, heading to clinics. Nearly collided a doctor (well, had a white coat and I was awake, so I figured) and the writer. I apologize and the girl still faced "uufff!, How dare interrupt the passage of Science!?". Then other "Colleagues? move quickly, due a. .. "Intensive Care? No. The coffee in the morning, provided as a courtesy by a laboratory. Hail and go through the same face of "the demigods were not interrupted." (Later in the seminar will look surprised and undone in hospitality when we arrived in the company's deputy chief medical officer for the talk ... I think that that gives us the "blues", heh!)
not stop surprise that these young health professionals, trying every day with people who trust them with bodies and minds that remind us that we are made of Wonders, and honest work with which to begin future fincar professional and financial, to take so lightly and with an own egotism only people with a profound existential ignorance, almost apostolic work they have chosen to play: the profession (bio-) medical.
I think what I (we) need is a good hug. Remember what that was, my dear little readers?
already know: At the time when men were men, women were women and the music was sung with pleasure (and not by groups Meow gangos @ s @ s), a hug was a demonstration of affection, empathy, Reunions, Covenants and to partition spirits.
was Prolongation our feelings. Temporary Naked Soul. And Extension Powerful Touch, one of the five pillars of the Body.
know that the Touch is a sense mechanoreceptor, located mainly in the body's largest organ, skin. It also allows us to assess the external stimuli into actionable information by the brain, for example, to judge the weight of a body, its consistency, external temperature and the risk of a burn, etc. A wonder that would eventually be described in a single document.
But what is not known for certain factual we want, is to what degree is important on an emotional level. We know it is VERY important, to the extent that there are several studies that indicate its curative value (in the form of Massage Therapy) in conditions such as hyperactivity, migraine, nervous colitis and mitigate certain ailments of diabetics.
In young children, it is essential that they receive tactile information. At the Institute for Research on Touch, or TRI, for its acronym in English), Miami, FL, USA, has shown that tactile stimulation (light massage) applied in only 10 days, three times a day, there a significant increase in attention, activity, joy and weight in babies who receive it. There are even signs that have fewer episodes of apnea Babies who are not tactile stimuli.
And it seems that, like many important things in history, it started with an inspiration of the heart.
One of the most famous of this new strand of thought regarding this form of communication, touch, was the twins' Jackson, in 1995.
(Note to faithful readers scarce in these parts: this part might well be labeled as part of the "like? Section recently opened, or ...
to dazzle the guys
(without being killed in the attempt)
[ the famous section designed so that if you do not have anything to say to the person loved, desired, or at least interested, or if you have spoken ill of the mother or wife of the head, not knowing who was present, can distract the attention of the respectable public, while carrying out a graceful flight ... or something ... ] ... but really do not know if appropriate. You say ... Vote, vote !!!).
We said: These twin daughters were born about 12 weeks ahead of schedule, so that, following the protocol the hospital, were placed in separate incubators in the intensive care area for babies. Their names were
Kyrie and Brielle (n'ombre, there are so many beautiful names, as Emerenciana or Fredegunda, Basila or Céfira.En end, continue). The first, with 990 grams at birth, began to improve rapidly. However, the other girl, with about 900 grams, had cardiorespiratory problems, loss of oxygenation and did not reach a healthy weight.
Over the days, the difference became increasingly clear. And the month after birth, the youngest was in crisis: crisis presented respiratory cyanosis (skin turned blue-gray) and tachycardia. Despite the efforts of staff, the girl did not improve, and relatives prepared for the worst.
As a last resort, and from an act more sentimental than scientific, nurses care for you, remembering a European custom (not yet approved in the United States) which put together the babies of multiple births, premature advised the anxious and frantic parents who put together the sisters. There seemed to be a pathological risks (viruses or bacteria). Just the smallest did not seem to have minds, or want to respond to treatment. So maybe farewell including parents, sadly, agreed.
What happened next was inscribed in the annals of science pediatric (U.S.): small Brielle, who almost did not move, they instinctively moved up to his sister and relaxed immediately. All vital signs began to stabilize. And in a few minutes, while his sister "higher" Kyrie, hugged her, life began to beat strong in the small. Oxygen level, heart rate and breathing improved.

Following this experience, at the beginning of 1996 were included in the U.S. study group to investigate the effect of this practice, and since then several health institutions in the country adopted the European custom, trusting in effect "healer" a magical contact l @ s herman @ s .
[Now, every time I feel that "the blues" ...
...¿¿ may ask them a big hug, Dear @ s friend @ s ?]
Y. .. "Bunting, Colorado, this story (" based on true events ", lol, what was heard this telenovela!) Is over!"
So I do not even complain. I'll get to the young doctor went bad this morning, and will give him a tight hug and relaxing. Then I tell if I am accused of "harassment sexual "ggrrrhhhh!
With ABRAZOTOTOTE (now also with scientific principles, and a council of Neruda ... Let her case!), farewell:
the Caballito incubated with Horn (Y, is my hug? ... Well, there I go mine ...!)
