Vaccines matter to you, me and Alabama

The South Alabamian News Podcast ·

2025/08/06

My six-year-old triplets share a room and they just love to pile into the same bed at night. You can imagine that when a stomach bug sneaks in, it levels all three at once — and turns two working parents into round-the-clock nurses and laundry staff. Now imagine what something like the flu, RSV or COVID-19 could do to a household with young children. Yikes! Vaccines spare my family that chaos, giving us the health, time and paychecks we can’t afford to lose. August is National Immunization Aw...

Do it while you can

2025/08/06

Do it while you can; do it while you feel like it. The chances of you doing something now are greater than 10 years from now. First, you may not be here 10 years from now. If there is a career change you want to make, make it as soon as possible. The sooner the better. If there is education or training you are thinking about pursuing, begin now. The longer you wait to start, the longer it will take to finish. The younger you begin a career, the better the chance you have of it being better, b...

Back-to-school time is always exciting. Shopping for uniforms, shoes, supplies, and dorm necessitates can be fun, but don’t let the busyness of it overshadow the need for preventive auto maintenance for your traveling students, particularly college students. Times have changed since I was a college student decades ago, but it’s still important to me to remind parents and students of things my dad taught me beforehand, and things we learned through experience. When I was still teaching, a cons...
