rebbitzen – We’ve been posting since page 1.
Actually it’s embarrassing for us- we’re like such yentas, and I’m not even a female.
PBA – You make light of his post -by doing so you cause others to think he isn’t making any point. Whether his or your interpretation of that Gemorrah is correct -is irrelevant. His point is very true -if your drinking can come to a Sakanah, you don’t have that right to follow the D’Rabbon Chiuv of getting drunk. Now there are a lot of people including teenagers who won’t put themselves in Sakanah, but there are a lot that will nowadays. Every parent has to make sure that no kid will drink to that point. Some kids are responsble on their own not to drink that much. But a lot of kids need someone to watch them -not to get there. It could be the parents, members of the Hanhala of the kid’s yeshiva or other responsible adults. The problem isn’t with drinking on Purim, the problem is we don’t have a lot of responsible adults and children!

“just for your information the bochur who died last purim did not die from too much alcohol rather from an aneurysm”
I find your comments unbelievable. First of all, how do you know who I’m talking about? Second of all, even if it’s the same guy, I heard this from my Rov who is good friends with the uncle. Why should I believe an anonymous blogger over my Rov? Third of all, how do you know the guy died from an aneurysm -did you speak to the doc who saw the CT scan?
Since you posted based on a lot of Your assumptions, I Assume you have some sort of agenda! Care to Share what it is?

I sometimes davened in a Shul, many years ago, where the police put signs reserving the spaces in front of the shul for the shul-goers. Of course, this was only on Shabbos.
“There was a Yungerman who passed away two years ago on purim after damaging his liver from too much alcohol.”
This I don’t believe. Liver damage takes years. I did hear a story of a bochur dying a year ago on Purim from too much alcohol.
Were on page 19 -Yay! Were on page 19 -Yay.
guy-ocho – How many old Jewish Ladies does it take to change a light bulb? It’s alright -I’ll sit in the dark.
How many Pollacks does it take to change a light bulb?
10 – 1 to hold the bulb and 9 to turn the room.
How many Lubabs does it take to change a light bulb?
Only one, but the Rebbe had to make him a Shaliach!
“I’m not going to try it.” “Let’s get Mikey to try it -he eats anything.” “Yea.”
Mikey tries it.
“He likes it – Hey Mikey!” (Life cereal)

tralala – “I can’t explain in english how it works, i’ll leave that for health,”
I already posted on this on page 1 of this topic.
Why would you want to? Are you trying to fool someone about your knowledge level?
Unfortunately, I know in the medical field, that there are people who have doctorates and aren’t at all competent, and there are those without doctorates whom are very competent!
Not all shrinks are crazy, but a lot of crazy people become therapists for different reasons. One is to say -ya see I’m not crazy, everyone else is. I actually know someone like this.
There are a lot incompetent mental health professionals out there -be very careful when choosing one!
Aries – “It is important to know if the shots you had as a child actually “took”.”
They “took”, but a lot of immunizations don’t last forever. Mumps might be one that people might need three.
Proud Jew – “I NEED URGENT HELP WITH THIS ISSUE FOR MY KIDS. PLEASE”
There is a very informative article in emedicine health (online)under bedwetting.
MiI – Alarms are about 70% effective. There is an Israeli doctor named Dr. Sagie who has helped many, even when others have failed.
There are a lot more shots that adults can get -ask your doctor.
I saw a RY eating out and he comes from a family of the same type.
People who haven’t had polio shots since they were a kid back in the 50’s or 60’s should probably get a booster.
Bedwetting should be taken care of at home. Nowadays there are many ways to get rid of this problem. Alarms is the first thing. There is a specialist from Israel that always tours here and he guarantees success. You can be over this before camp starts. Medication is a last resort, unless they diagnose an illness.
MR – Posting on blogs is also women’s work.
Unfortunately, I’ve seen on some of these frum sites people posting under different catergories, not just one, like yeshvish.
And if you look at the picture, they don’t even look frum. Watch out -anybody can claim to be anything they want.
Since shadchunnus is a business, there are plenty in it for the money. And just like business people manipulate, lie, etc. to make a sale, so too will Shadchuhnim.
Nurse – You obviously didn’t read my second post. You can get a job in a city facility.
MiI – Sorry to hear about your kid. Was the kid a he or she and how old and what did the kid die from?
I also lost a two year old girl. She developed a heart problem at a few months old.
Since Shadchunnus is a business and my parents paid for the service -can I now sue my shadchan? I would sue for the original amount and all subseqent damages and future pain. Fair is fair.
mom12 – “He is telling you the DIN. You choose not to listen”
How do you know that everything in there is the “Din”? As far as I know, he’s not even a poisek. You want to be machmir fine, but don’t make it -if you don’t listen you are doing an Aveira.
I do agree that girls not yet in Shidduchim shouldn’t be wearing nail polish even light colors.
mischiefmaker – Did you do everything in my post?
MiI – Actually I think they aren’t the same. Kinesiology – I think they press on some pressure points on the foot or ear supposedly corresponding to certain body areas or functions. Probably an offshoot of accupuncture.
BTW, how much did you pay for the hand waving?
I provide free medical advice on YWN.
Why are all these alternative therapies so popular here in Lakewood?
AH – “I CAN cross the street/I CAN see”
Look I have a lot better eyesight than you without my glasses and I hesitate to even walk around my house without glasses because I might trip on something, for sure not cross the street. It’s not worth the chance. Cataract removal is minor surgery.
Aries -Let them go to a nursing home or home care. Something is better than nothing. Also, try a city owned hospital, it’s easier for a new grad sometimes there.
ItsJustMyOpinion – “Remember filling up gas by pulling down the license plate in the back”
What dah yah mean remember? What you think -I can’t remember from one minute to the next? I just put in gas 2 hours ago. I love the attendants who will yell at me wrong side without looking. Some who don’t know look at both sides and ask where is it?
That’s because you live in Chaifa. Here in the US mentally ill & challenged patients by and far don’t live in nursing homes. We don’t commit them anymore. Most live in group homes or group facilities. Those who are a danger to themselves or others are committed to facilities. These are usually state psychiatric facilities with a few private ones. These people are almost non-existant in nursing homes.
Always here – Why wait? It’s same day surgery. In and out. 1800 is bad. Everyone needs to see. You can’t walk around without being able to see properly and you definitely can’t cross a street. What are you scared of?
Rebbitzen – First come -first serve.
2qwerty – They have that choice -find someone that will do what you want. Like in this case with Dr. Adler. Maybe Dr. Adler was sure no harm would come to the patient. We who aren’t this sure aren’t allowed either acc. to Torah or ethics (for goyishe practioners) to take this option.
2qwerty – “It all has to do with being afraid of being sued.”
Really? They only choose a method that is more likely to save a life over a method that might insure better quality of life because they don’t want to be sued? It has nothing to do with wanting the patient to live, right?
Aries – I never claimed that nursing homes are the ideal job for nurses. But it’s your foot in the door for the nursing profession.
“AND Health, it does not help you with your application for a hospital because in order to get into an ER they want ER experience, in order to get into a good floor they want experience in that specialty and NO they don’t consider Nursing Home experience appropriate experience in these cases.”
Look any job in the world they are looking for the best candidate. I just told you that I met a guy who got hired out of school for the ER. So if you apply to a job and there is someone with ER or Med/surg or ICU experience and you have nursing home experience, obviously they will be offered the job. BUT, if you have nursing home experience and the other candidates are new grads, you have a better chance of getting the job than them!
From your posts, it sounds like a relative of yours or someone you know is having a hard time getting a job in nursing.
Hudi – What do you do for a living?
What are you disagreeing with?!?
Like I said you have to learn how to delegate tasks and it makes your job easier.
WC – “having to ask for unleaded regular instead of leaded regular gas…”
HAha. You paid more than me, I got leaded gas.
Nurse – Most professions you have to start at the bottom. You can get a lot of experience in a nursing home. Also, in the nursing home you have to be assertive as a RN. You have to learn how to delegate tasks to the LPN’s and the CNA’s. Once you learn this concept, your job in the home won’t be so difficult.
I don’t know why, but I had to do a rotation in a nursing home or should I say SNF or LTC facility to be politically correct. :)>
Were on page 18 -Yay! Were on page 18 -Yay. Love feeling like a kid again.
Every drop counts, even after 5 hours when it comes to Timtum Halev!
Aries – Only partially true. To get a job in a hospital, you will probably need experience. But you fail to mention that most nursing jobs are in nursing homes. A new grad can get a job in a nursing home -probably most will accommodate frum Jews for time off. You can use the nursing home experience to later apply for jobs in hospitals -it counts as experience for the hospital setting. Also, being a male sometimes is advantageous -when I was doing an ER rotation in Coney Island Hospital, they hired a male nurse right out of school. He told me he was going to become a nurse practioner and had already signed up for it before getting this job. I asked him why? Because he told me he didn’t think he could get a job. He either got the job because they like males in the ER more than females or because he is Russian.
Popa – What?-you think everyone knows the difference between types (espressos, lattes, etc.)?
I’m not so sure myself what every different type is.
Popa – If you want to meikel, that’s your business. You might be drinking the drip coffee. But why do you come on a public blog to show your impunity to kashrus org.? Why do you think you’re an armchair Poisek?
Basically he’s saying a latte is treif. You posting your kulos for someone who doesn’t know intracasies -might cause someone to drink this. By coming here and gloating, you might be oiver – l’fnei michshol!
I like the idea of men becoming nurses. It’s very uncomfortable for me to yell at women. <;)
Who are we going to call for a chaperone -the women nurses will demand more pay for the economic principle of -supply & demand?
pomeranz -IMHO -this depends. If the whole family dresses up like CF’s family, she’ll stick out more not dressing up. If the parents don’t, why should a teenage girl dress up?
“pregnancy test” – This has to be also before starting treatment.
Tralala – Ah-someone actually calling my name. Unfortunately I have to post some very bad news I heard yesterday. There was a guy in shul who lost a teenager last year to alcohol on Purim. Alcohol is dangerous to everyone not just Diabetics. I propose that there has to be someone to watch every teenager that they don’t drink too much. You see I’m not like others who say noone can drink more than a cup of wine and that’s it. People, even teenagers can get drunk, but the adults who are responsible for this kid must make sure that there is a limit!
Someone should start a post (maybe I will, but I doubt it) about this! On Purim -we should all be happy, not sorry!
I’d like to tell all the liberal Jews who voted for him -I told you so. Maybe you should call him, but not to thank him. I heard in the News he told the “Palestinians”, that the reason of the veto was for them. He didn’t want Congress to stop the funding of them. If Barack Obama liked Israel, why didn’t he tell them – Jews have the right to build and live in their own country?
