p>A leaky toilet can waste up to 200 gallons of water a day. So if your toilet keeps running and running, it’s more than a nuisance...it’s actually costing you about $70 a month! How bad can a leaky faucet really be? Well, a slow drip can waste about 7-10 gallons of water per day, adding up to more than 3,600 gallons of water per year. This simple small leak can cost you about $20 per year. A more significant faucet leak can produce 30 to hundreds of gallons of wasted water per day. The average costs of these fast dripping faucets will end up costing you $60 to $200 per year. And what about those drips you never notice like the one by your cracked hose bib? If you add up all the little things...the total could cost you a lot of cash!

Don’t assume that you’re too healthy to be struck down by the flu. Dr. Orsak says, “Three of Harris County's flu deaths this year involved people older than 25...flu shots aren’t just for children! While most people with the flu do absolutely fine with OTC medication and rest, if you have difficulty breathing, chest or abdominal pain, dizziness, confusion, or severe vomiting...come straight to St. Michael’s. If administered within 48 hours of the onset of your symptoms, antiviral medications like Tamiflu may shorten how long you have the virus and reduce the risk of complications. We’re here for your family whenever you need us, offering emergency care with an emphasis on the care...the way medicine is meant to be practiced.”

Fort Bend athletes Alexis and Sara Aguilar (Graduates of Travis High School), twin daughters of Ray and Diana Aguilar, are always on the go. After they received a softball scholarship, they needed the perfect vehicle to get them to Kilgore College in northeast Texas. Sara says, “My dad works at Classic Chevy, so he occasionally brought a car home for a test drive. One week he said, “Look, this is the Equinox. It gets great gas mileage...try it out!” We liked it, but we didn’t think anything else about it. Another night we were all going out to dinner and Dad said, “So, who wants to drive?” But he always drives, so Alexis and I said, “No thanks.” Then he said, “But that Equinox LT in the driveway is your car.” That’s when I said, “I’ll drive!”

Are you already worried about your child’s teeth? “Two of the most common worries among parents are thumb-sucking and clinching/grinding of teeth at night,” says Dr. Khan, “Both are very natural. Thumb sucking is an innate reflex for babies...a habit that provides many children both sleep and security. And I know as a parent that you don’t want to take away sleep or security! However, as your child grows past the age of two, you should start encouraging the child to stop. Grinding of the teeth during sleep is also very natural--and usually nothing to be concerned about. But as with any issue, my staff and I are always here to help, and we can evaluate your child and see if any treatment is required.”

Did you know?
