November is National Family Caregivers Month and AARP is launching a national campaign to bring awareness to the important role that family caregivers play in the lives of their loved ones. AARP's Random Acts of Kindness for Caregivers contest will begin on October 15 with the goal of encouraging people to recognize and reward caregivers - many of whom spend 18 hours per week providing care like bathing, dressing, preparing meals, administering medications, driving to doctor visits or paying bills - in small but meaningful ways.
“Caregiving may be one of the greatest expressions of love and it's woven into the lives of one in six adults,” says AARP Family and Caregiving Expert Amy Goyer, author of the new book Juggling Life, Work and Caregiving. “A staggering 40 million family caregivers provide support for loved ones and, as a caregiver myself, I know that the smallest acts of kindness - like holding a door for someone pushing a wheelchair, surprising them with flowers, or even taking a caregiver's dog for a walk - can be memorable moments in the life of a caregiver.”

Los atletas del equipo olímpico de Estados Unidos (Team USA) saben lo que se necesita para formar un campeón: toda una vida de determinación y entrenamiento, innumerables competencias, años de alimentar su cuerpo con los alimentos y bebidas adecuados y el inquebrantable apoyo de mamá y papá. En la actualidad, una nueva encuesta1 llevada a cabo entre más de 1,000 atletas estadounidenses olímpicos y paralímpicos, activos o ya retirados y también entre aspirantes, encontró que casi todos (nueve de cada 10) crecieron tomando leche en su camino hacia el escenario mundial. Ahora, a Milk Life Lo Que Nos Hace Fuertes le gustaría ayudar a alimentar al campeón que todos llevamos por dentro mediante la promoción “Levanta tu vaso, forma un campeón” (Raise A Glass, Build A Champion).
Los miembros del “Team USA” que participaron en la encuesta clasificaron una dieta saludable más que su intenso calendario de entrenamiento como un factor clave para su éxito. Ellos buscan la combinación adecuada de nutrientes para ayudarles a obtener lo máximo de su entrenamiento, y eso incluye proteína, tal como la proteína natural, de alta calidad, que se encuentra en la leche. De hecho, los Centros de entrenamiento olímpico de Estados Unidos sirven decenas de miles de galones de leche cada año a los atletas que se encuentran entrenando en los más altos niveles.

Many people equate a conversation about hospice as being told they must give up. However, more than 1 million people across the nation have learned just the opposite. They’ve been touched by the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization’s “Moments of Life: Made Possible by Hospice” campaign since its launch on May 15, 2014. The campaign’s intent is to debunk this myth, and show that hospice focuses on compassionate, person-centered care, which enables special moments and memories at the end of life for patients and loved ones.
