Hands have been a focus lately: washing them thoroughly, watching what they touch, keeping them away from loved ones. But each can stay in touch with those we love, keep each other healthy, and to show appreciation for others. We applaud everyone helping others, today and always.

Having a UTI later in life can be very serious. Using pads from @PixieScientific a couple times a week can help monitor for UTIs, and let you know you have one before you have symptoms.
