You talk about many things with your loved ones: from day-to-day details to big events. Sharing stories with those who matter most isn’t just important today – it will be especially significant when it’s time to honour and commemorate your life. A funeral can reflect a person’s story and be transformative, healing and comforting. Meaningful funerals start when loved ones talk about what matters most: memories made, lessons learned and how they hope to be remembered. Talk to us to pre-plan your funeral service and ensure it’s an accurate reflection of your life, values and experiences.

Benefits of an Emotional Support Animal
Did you know that doctors can prescribe an emotional support animal? Many people live with mental illnesses or dementia, are on the autism spectrum, or are affected by anxiety or loneliness. It is becoming more common for doctors, along with prescribing necessary medications, to prescribe an emotional support animal. These animals, typically cats and dogs, provide emotional comfort, social interaction, and stress relief. Can’t own animals where you live? Try a visit from Village Rose Home Healthcare’s support dog, Benji. This sweet Yorkie and his care-aide owner will bring joy and comfort with a visit to your home.
Are Your Hormones Out of Balance?
Hormones affect many areas of your health; mood, metabolism and sexual/reproductive function. Anyone who has been through puberty knows that hormones have a powerful effect on one’s body. Unbalanced hormones can make you feel like a stranger in your own skin. Compounded hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a way to restore balance and help you feel like yourself again. With your healthcare provider’s prescription, we can help establish a hormone replacement regimen that brings your hormones back into balance to closely mimic what your body has been doing naturally for years. Kristen offers professional consultations to women interested in hormone replacement solutions.
