Elders, animals, compassion. These are the messages I’d like to share as we continue to be more health literate in our home 🏡 and in your community. October is health literacy month.
It’s more than “knowledge” it is taking the appropriate actions for your and other’s health and being advocates for local and global change. This is across the globe as it includes animals — October 4th world animal day to commemorate St. Francis of Assisi.


Global health literacy academy had a great past post shared here… along with a dedication to our elders! The 3rd age is a “hot topic” in global health these days .
- Be generous
- Be diligent to watch for early symptoms
- Be proactive about your health and get animals spade or neutered (microchips a must for house pets)
- Just be mindful!
A big Thank You to all the animals who posed for us for health literacy month !
