Take Care of Seasonal Allergies
Spring is the worst season for allergies, according to the Canadian Society of Allergy and Clinical Immunology. The biggest spring allergy trigger is pollen. Trees, grasses, and weeds release these tiny spores into the air to fertilize other plants. When they get into the nose or eyes of someone who’s allergic, they send the body’s defenses haywire. If pollen is a trigger, keep doors and windows closed to keep it out, and wear wraparound sunglasses when outside. Also, ask your doctor or pharmacist about the most appropriate allergy medications to avoid possible side effects, such as drowsiness and confusion.
Message To Our Community
When asked for something as a funeral director, we like to be able to say yes and ensure that family requests, desires, and the deceased’s last wishes are met. The pandemic made it challenging for us to gather and grieve together, but as we come out of the restrictions and mandates, precautions such as masks, vaccinations, and hand sanitizer can still be required at services, if requested, to make everyone feel welcome and comfortable – that’s what we as funeral directors do. We look forward to being able to say yes to families once again and exceeding their expectations.
