Produce Stand at Thompson Each Monday
Did you know that F.F. Thompson Hospital his hosting a produce stand each Monday from 2:30 to 5 p.m. through Oct. 14?
Several Thompson associates belong to a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) program, and many others find it convenient to buy their locally-grown fruits and veggies right at work, but members of the wider community are invited to stop by, too!
The fresh produce is from Genecco Produce, which sets up in front of the emergency department.
Please note that the produce stand will not be at the hospital on July 29 or Sept. 2 (Labor Day).
Better Breathers to Meet July 12
Thompson Health will hold its Better Breathers Support Group on Friday, July 12, from 3 to 4:30 p.m. in the George M. Ewing Jr. Conference Room on the ground floor of the hospital’s Constellation Center for Health and Healing.
This group is designed to help individuals with lung disease or breathing difficulties improve their quality of life through discussion, education, and behavioral modifications. It is led by Thompson Health Respiratory Therapist Gerald Dilgard.
For more information, call 585-396-6253.

Sleeping During Hot Weathers
It’s summer and although you are running the air conditioning, the house just seems to still retain the heat of the day. Now you are trying to sleep. You toss. You turn. You can’t get comfortable. You are just plain hot and you can’t sleep! Read More.

Eye Floaters
The adult aging process can include many phases, some of which are innocuous. One of those are floaters in our vision.
Eye floaters are shapes that move across the field of vision. Sometimes they are squiggles, dots, or lines. They move in and out and while, they are somewhat distracting, they are quite common. If you try to look at them, they seem to dart away. Usually you will notice floaters in only one eye at a time. Read more.

Lemons
Everyone can recognize a lemon. However, most people don’t realize how good they are for you. They contain Vitamin C, B-complex vitamins, calcium, fiber and 22 anti-cancer compounds. Read More.
