HEART ATTACK

by: MisS VictoriA DaviD

Isn’t it a dreadful feeling to see someone in pain and all we can do is simper onto him as we don't know how to initiate the first aid treatment?

If you don't have knowledge to relieve someone's attack, it is a good idea to call the hotline number of the paramedics. This is the use of your phone and staying beside the casualty until the experts arrive.

What if, you know the basic of first aid treatment? It is a way of saving someone's life and relieving his pain for a moment while waiting for the ambulance. In return, it is a very rewarding feeling that you saved someone's grim.

If someone in your family or a casualty is suffering from a HEART ATTACK, this is the basic mortality saving procedure you can apply:

1. Make the casualty as comfortable as possible to ease the strain on his heart. A half-sitting position, with the casualty’s head and shoulders well supported and his knees bent, is often best.
2. Dial 999 for an ambulance. State that you suspect a heart attack. If the casualty asks you to do so, call his own doctor as well.
3. If the casualty is fully conscious, give him a full-dose (300mg) aspirin tablet to be chewed slowly.
4. If the casualty has medicine for angina, such as tablets or pump-action or aerosol spray, help him to take it. Encourage the casualty to rest.
5. Constantly monitor and record vital sign- level of response, pulse and breathing- until help arrives.

D.I.Y SECRET TREATMENT FOR MY SILKY LOCKS

by: MisS VictoriA DaviD

I LOVE IT...

One important errand in my weekly calendar which is also part of my beauty regimen is to treat intensively my long shiny black hair. I do it at home or shall I say, its the Do It Yourself (D.I.Y) method which is very handy and less pricey.

When I was working as a call centre agent in the Philippines for 5-6 nights a week, from 22:00 until the next day, it was important for me to remain freshly beautiful and well kempt. Actually, being very presentable helped my confidence in gaining and attracting friends, at work and outside the office. That is how, when I was living with my sister's family in Cainta, Rizal for almost 3 years, I met 'Parlorista' (Hair Salon Personnel). They became my closest friends outside of work. More importantly, I learnt a few of the salon secrets they shared with me. These services maintained the silkiness and bounciness of their happy clients' hair. We called it 'Intensive Hair Treatment' which revives the strands of your damaged hair and intensively repairs it to be healthy again. When I was nosing about their salon, they recommended the Watson hair treatment product for me to try and happily, it was very effective! However, when I moved to England it was very burdensome to find Watson products, so I ended up experimenting with a few until I found Dove Hair Therapy.

Dove Hair Therapy's 200ml container is very affordable (providing more savings in my purse) and the beneficial effects are better than the Watson hair treatment wax. Unbelievable, but in just 30 minutes of leaving it on your hair and rinsing afterwards, you will notice the satisfying difference and result. Try it for yourself and see if you agree!

I do the treatment all by myself and always appreciates the glossy, shiny quality outcome of my long black hair. The fragrance is an extra element when your hair is completely dry which will be appreciated by your friends and it's also good for the snouts of your lovers. I'm giggling... LOL!

My silky locks is my crown and I'm very proud in maintaining its brilliant appearance all by myself (I will because I can!).
