The Breast Care Centerat manatee memorial hospital
Breast cancer is most treatable in its early stages, and the best form of early detection is mammography. The American Cancer Society recommends that all women have a yearly mammogram starting at age 40. A clinical breast exam (CBE) is recommended about every three years for women in their 20s and 30s, and each year for those age 40 and over.
The Breast Care Center at Manatee Memorial offers a full spectrum of services from screening to diagnosis to treatment. The equipment used at the Breast Care Center produces images with high contrast and high definition to visualize details throughout the breast.
Services at the Breast Care Center include:
• Selenia® Digital Mammography System

B�er Hearing...B�er Life!H
My wife complains that I can’t hear, but I keep telling her people just don’t talk as clearly as they used to. How do I know when it’s time for a hearing test?
It’s true that not all people enunciate as clearly as others, but in reality there have been mumblers throughout history and there probably is not a higher percentage today than in the past. The fact of the situation is, if hearing is normal, you can generally understand people in spite of their poor speaking habits. If you find that you do any of these: ask for frequent repetitions, turn the television higher than others, have difficulty hearing in crowds or noisy places, or find that you hear a conversation but have difficulty understanding the words, it’s time to schedule a hearing test with an audiologist. Call us today to find out the facts about your hearing and the options available to help you hear more clearly.

Question:My.herbs.aren’t.looking.so.good.right.now..Can.I.revive.them?Anneswer…Maybe,. it. depends. on. which.herbs. you. have. and. whether.they.are.annuals.or.perennials.Perennial. herbs. can. be. re-
vived.by.trimming.and.fertilizing..Cut. them.back.by.about1/3.of.the.total.plant.height.and.apply.a. slow-release. fertilizer.. We.recommend.“Dynamite.13.13.13.with.minor.elements”..Make.sure.they.are.getting.strong.light.but.not.direct.sun..Too.much.shade.will. make. herbs. stringy. and.weak. while. too. much. sun. will.burn.them..
PERENNIAL.HERBS:Rosemary:.Must.have.very.good.drainage.. Cooks. everywhere.use.the.leaves..Performs.equally.well. in.a.fast.draining.container.or.in.a.garden.site..Trim.to.shape..You.can.put. leaves. in.a.plastic.bag. in. the. freezer.. If. they. start.to. get. pale. green. or. yellowish.just.add.a. little.more.fertilizer.to.green. them. up.. Best. to. fertilize.lightly.and.more.often.Lemon. Grass:. A. root-hardy.
perennial. that. forms. a. large.clump. if. given. sun,. water. and.fertilizer.. The. tender. lower. stalks.are. used. in. stir-fry,. the. leaves.make. tea. that’s. very. tasty.and.has.medicinal.properties..Thyme:.Technically.a.perennial..If.it.makes.it.through.the.summer.cut.it.back.by.about.a.third.and.give. it. some. fertilizer.. Like. light.and.good.drainage.Sage:. A. perennial. that.shouldn’t. be. started. in. the.summer.. . Transplant. the. little.plants. in.early.spring.or. fall..Use.the.leaves.on.chicken,.Etc.Marjoram:. Two. types:. Sweet.and. Pot.. Space. them. about. a.foot.apart..Sweet.is.upright,.pot.is.flatter..Use.the. leaves.fresh.or.dried.. Makes. a. pretty. border.plant.
ANNUAL.HERBS:Each.year.in.the.fall..and.spring.
you. must. buy. new. little. starter.plants. because. the. summer.heat.or.winter.cold.kills.them.Oregano:. Two. types:.Mexican.and. European. (wild).. They.ech.have.a.different. taste.. The.European.(wild). is.much.milder..Ct. the. tops. to. use. just. before.flowering.begins.Parsley:. Likes. cool. weather..Does.well.in.Florida..Dill:.

JoyBy Valerie KellyIt took a lot, when I was youngTo fill my heart with Joy – Not just a super mark in Chem, Not just a smiling boy.
My hair, you see, just had to beTurned under like Bacall’sAnd that wasn’t very easyTo do, as I recall.
A run in my best pair of hoseWould cause me much distress,
As would a little bit of slipPeeking below my dress.
My priorities changed with age,Other things changed as wellNot one change was an improvementAs far as I could tell.
The kind of marks I care ‘bout now – Cholesterol, B.P.,If good, make Dr. Behnke smileAnd fill my heart with glee.
My hair, what there is left of it,Is permed, for which I pay – Forget ‘bout slips and hose becauseI hear that they’re passe!
When I wake up each morning – Albeit ginerglyIf no new part is hurtingWell – that spells Joy to me!
