Important Safety InformationSacral Neuromodulation for Bladder Control (Medtronic Bladder Control Therapy Delivered by the InterStim® System)
InterStim Therapy for Urinary Control treats urinary retention (inability to completely empty the bladder) and the symptoms of overactive bladder, including urinary urge incontinence (leakage) and significant symptoms of urgency-frequency. It should be used after you have tried other treatments such as medications and behavioral therapy and they have not worked, or you could not tolerate them.You should have a successful trial assessment before receiving InterStim Therapy. You cannot have diathermy (deep heat treatment from electromagnetic energy) if you have an InterStim device.InterStim Therapy is not intended for patients with a urinary blockage. Safety and effectiveness have not been established for pregnancy and delivery; patients under the age of 16; or for patients with neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis.
In addition to risks related to surgery, complications can include pain at the implant sites, new pain, infection, lead (thin wire) movement/migration, device problems, interactions with certain other devices or diagnostic equipment such as MRI, undesirable changes in urinary or bowel function, and uncomfortable stimulation (sometimes described as a jolting or shocking feeling).This therapy is not for everyone. Please consult your physician to decide whether InterStim Therapy is right for you. A prescription is required. For further information, please call Medtronic at 1-800-328-0810 and/or consult Medtronic’s website at www.medtronic.com.USA Rx Only. Rev 0110
Schedule an appointment today to find out if Medtronic Bladder Control Therapy could eliminate or reduce your bladder control problem by calling 757-345-6223.
If you’ve tried treatments that haven’t been successful, don’t lose hope.Living with a bladder control problem is not easy. When you can’t find an effective long-term treatment, it’s hard to stop worrying about when your next embarrassing accident could happen.

“I PREFER TO WIN TITLES WITH THE TEAM AHEAD OF INDIVIDUAL AWARDS OR SCORING MORE GOALS THAN ANYONE ELSE.”
HOW DO YOU WANT TO BE REMEMBERED?
CHRIS JONES /EDITOR IN [email protected]
I was starIng out of the wIndow next to my desk watchIng an unrelenting rain beat on the pavement. For the first time, this ed-itor’s note wasn’t coming easy to me. There was so much I wanted to share, but the words were swirling about in my head. I wanted to tell you why I still believe in Santa Claus (I really do and could also convince you!), why giving money is good—but donating your time and talent will make you more compassionate and empathet-ic (It does!)—and why the Dallas Cowboys make Thanksgiving better for everyone (No, I’m not a fan).
Then it hit me: a conversation at Panera Bread in July with my good friend Mark Stannard about what it is people really want.
Do you know what people want? That was the question on the table. Mark was chomping down on his bagel with his eyes focused on me. I had my hands cupped around my hazelnut coffee sifting through my mind for the answer. I was stroking the back of my cup with my left thumb as I do when I’m thinking. I knew that he had the answer. Mark is a deep thinker and his queries are always deliberate. “I think people want to be loved,” I said, a tad unsure. Mark’s disarming smile let me know that my answer wasn’t wrong, but not the top answer.
“Chris,” he said in his fatherly voice, “What people want is to be known. They want to be remembered.”
That led me down the rabbit hole of wondering if I’m exert-ing enough influence with my life. I asked Mark. He remind-ed me that as the editor of The Health Journal I’m teaching people how to live. That what I do helps to change lives and that my position creates trust between the magazine and the community. Hmm, I thought.
Mark was right. Our publishers founded the publication as a way to encourage you to take an active role in your health. The editorial calendar we develop always has you in mind. Our writers go out of their way to inform, educate, inspire and offer solutions to your challenges. Our advertising staff deliberately pursues partners who will create the best quality of life for you. And The Health Journal’s video and production staff provides compelling visual storytelling.
— LIONEL MESSI
But do you know what I really love? Receiving your emails and letters sharing how the words on this page each month have helped you overcome challenges in your life. I love when my writers are praised for their work and their stories are shared online. It’s great when I mention where I work and someone says, “I love your magazine.” And one of my greatest thrills was when our staff won 13 awards at the Virginia Press Association ceremony last April.
Am I known, sure. Are we known—you bet.If I told you we do what we do with a staff of eight, you
wouldn’t believe me, but it’s true. I’m proud to be known as the editor in chief of this magazine and I’ll be happy to be remembered for being on of one of the greatest staffs in the history of The Health Journal. This month, we perfect bound a 64-page magazine, a first for us. Last January, we switched from newsprint to glossy. It’s a testimony to the vision of our publishers and the ability of our staff to rise to every challenge set before us. Sharing this moment in time with this group of people helping inspire you to be the best version of yourself is a privilege, and it’s fun. If you want to remember me for anything, remember me for this.

1. STAY KUHL
I discovered Kühl on a trip to Wyoming last fall and love how their clothing—made for men and women—is incredibly lightweight and packable yet designed for maximum warmth. The fitted Aurora Women’s Jacket ($99) is made of soft “Alfpaca” fleece and has a sporty, contoured fit. Perhaps most of all, I like the brand’s “rebellious philosophy” to “resist, defy and oppose the norm.”

2. SHAKE IT, BABY I love the collection of handcrafted products by Josh Williams and Eric Prum, two longtime best friends who grew up in the South and now share their passion for “Vintage Americana and Southern Sensibility” through Brooklyn-based W&P Design. The duo’s book, Shake: A New Perspective on Cocktails ($25), is a photographic journey through the art of cocktail-crafting using their signature Mason Shaker ($29) and seasonal ingredients.

Bridget Weinberg creates a thriving support network for those touched by cancer
SOWING SEEDS OF HOPE❥ WRITTEN BY BRANDY CENTOLANZA
when bridget weinberg’s husband, kelly, passed away from brain cancer in 2007, she sought support from Gilda’s Club, a group for those touched by cancer named in honor of the late comedienne Gilda Radnor.
“I loved going, and looked forward to going every week,” recalls Weinberg, who grew close to group members she met near Fort Campbell, Tennessee, where Weinberg’s family was stationed.
A year later, when Weinberg moved to Williamsburg, Virginia, with her daughter, Samantha, to be closer to family, she was disappointed to find that there wasn’t a group like Gilda’s Club. So she created one.
“I was looking for a group specific to those touched by cancer,” says Weinberg. Friends and members of her church encouraged her to start The Kelly Weinberg Foundation. In 2010, the non-profit organization began offering support groups in Williamsburg. Dr. James Goalder, a clinical psychologist, helped train volunteers—mostly those who had cancer or who had been caregivers to those with cancer—to facilitate meetings with cancer patients or survivors and their families, as well as those who are grieving the loss of a loved one.
“It’s really about camaraderie, having others share their experiences and knowing you are not alone,” Weinberg says.
Last year, The Kelly Weinberg Foundation collaborated with Williamsburg Community Chapel to host support groups. Groups meet twice a month, with a dozen or so cancer patients and their caregivers
gathering for emotional and spiritual support. “The response has been huge,” says Weinberg, who
is one of the group’s facilitators. “It’s been great, a huge blessing. It’s amazing. I just wanted to do what I could do to help others in a similar situation, even if it was just a handful of people.”
Losing her husband was difficult, but Weinberg is grateful for her family, especially her daughter.
“Sam and I have traveled this road of grief together and I don’t know what I would have done without her,” Weinberg says. “She gave me a reason to get up each morning. I wish Kelly could have watched Sam grow up into this amazing young lady. I know he would be so proud.”
Weinberg is also thankful for the people she’s encountered through The Kelly Weinberg Foundation.
“I feel blessed to have met those people who I have met through the foundation,” Weinberg says. “Everyone is different. I’ve learned through my journey that what works for one person might not work for another. But groups are wonderful. It helps to speak to others who are also living through it in their households. Some people come and just listen and others will talk about the challenges of life with cancer and find laughter through the tears.”
The Kelly Weinberg Foundation is planning to expand services to include support groups at churches in Virginia Beach and in Hampton, Virginia, and Weinberg is ecstatic.
“We will go wherever we are needed,” she says.

Whipping the air into a frenzy, the white, blue and red helicopter gently touches down on the tarmac at the Middle Peninsula Regional Airport on a bright, sunny afternoon.
After taking a few minutes to shut down, out hops the three-person crew—pilot, nurse and paramedic—who pull off their helmets as they head into their office to await their next call.
They don’t have to wait long. About a half-hour later, after the pilot has refueled the helicopter and the nurse and medic have sat down to grab some lunch, the radio crackles.
The third call of the day beckons LifeEvac III to Riverside Walter Reed Hospital in Gloucester County, Virginia, to transport a 57-year-old cancer patien to Sentara CarePlex Hospital in Hampton, Virginia.
“They say go,” says paramedic and medical base manager Bev Harris, pushing
away her salad. “We say OK.”The call is a bit more sedate
than an earlier one, during which the crew landed in a New Kent County, Virginia, field to pick up a gunshot victim. Another flight was to transport a heart attack patient.
It’s all in a day’s work for this ambulance in the sky.
LifeEvac III has been working in Hampton Roads since June 2006, often to the surprise of medical folks used to Sentara’s Nightingale being the only emergency medical helicopter in the area. Although it’s considered a community-based helicopter and not a hospital-based one, LifeEvac III has partnerships with both the Riverside and Bon Secours health systems.
Based at the Middle Peninsula Regional Airport just outside of West Point, Virginia, Life Evac III’s primary service area is a 120-mile radius around West Point. It answers calls throughout Hampton Roads, the Northern Neck and the Eastern Shore, but has flown to North Carolina, Maryland and Washington, D.C., on occasion. The crew considers its service area the community—if the weather is right for flying, they’ll respond.
“If you need us, we’re here,” says lead pilot Dave Givens. “If we’re available, we’re coming.”
The crew also tries to get to know their
community as much as possible, holding open houses at the airport, visiting schools and participating in the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
Since the program began, LifeEvac III has remained busy, averaging about 500 flights a year. This year, in just its 8th year of existence, it was named the 2014 Outstanding EMS Agency by the Peninsula Emergency Medical Services Council, which facilitates regional cooperation among all the emergency medical services in the area.
LifeEvac III is one of two LifeEvac medical helicopters in Virginia; the other is based in Petersburg, just south of Richmond. The helicopters are owned and operated by Denver, Colorado-based Air Methods, the largest provider of air medical emergency transport in the United States, with some 450 aircraft.
In West Point, the program operates with a full-time staff of 14—four pilots, four paramedics, four nurses and two mechanics, all working on rotating schedules. A crew of three flies on the EC-135 helicopter, which can carry one patient (or a patient and family member if the weight limit allows it), and cruises at speeds up to 150 mph.
The nurse-medic team is prepared to handle virtually any patient situation, including trauma scenes, critical-care transports between hospitals, and high-risk obstetrical transports. Because they’re authorized to carry and use drugs found in emergency rooms and intensive-care units, the medical crew can handle many procedures in the air, if need be. Bottom line: They want the patients to be better off when they leave them than when they’re picked up.
And the thank yous often come in, each letter tucked into one of several scrapbooks the staff keeps. Patients have sought out the crew long after their flights, some showing up with cakes. One letter that’s especially dear to Harris’s heart still chokes her up.
It’s those moments—the getting to make a difference in someone’s life, perhaps helping to save a life—that mean much more than any award the crew could ever get.
“That’s worth all the midnight runs and the crappy weather,” Givens says. “To experience that is greater than Christmas.”
“If you need us, we’re here,” says lead pilot Dave Givens. “If we’re available, we’re coming.”

FILE: Q
&A
One of the greatest challenges faced by children with cystic fibrosis is following their daily chest physical therapy, a regimen that is essential for clearing excess mucus that collects in the lungs of people with this genetic disease.
But a pair of artists from Virginia hopes to make that process a little less daunting for children. They’ve created a web comic, called 508 [508comic.net], that provides a snapshot of the morning routine of Wesley, a fictional 10-year-old boy with cystic fibrosis. To get through his therapy session, Wesley daydreams that he is piloting a starfighter that is battling aliens—bacteria that live in his lungs.
We spoke with the artists about their inspiration for 508, the response from patients and others, and their future plans.
About the Artists: Wade Tooley, who has cystic fibrosis, is an illustrator by trade and developed the story of 508 in late 2012. Faced with a daunting workload, Wade enlisted the help of his longtime friend and fellow illustrator, Sean Moffatt to handle the artwork.
What was your goal in creating a web comic about cystic fibrosis?Wade: There’s a real problem with getting children and teenagers with CF to adhere to their care regimen. It can be a big imposition, if you allow it to be, if it’s not managed the right way … I got to thinking, there’s got to be a way to address this … Because I’m an illustrator and have a background in that, I figured what better way than a comic book.Sean: We’re just trying to get the message out there about cystic fibrosis. The
knowledge base about CF within the community is pretty low. We’re trying to expand that. This comic book is one avenue that we’re trying to use—something entertaining.
Why 508?Wade: The most common form of CF is caused by a mutation—delta 508. Because that’s the most common, that’s the reason that I picked that name for the squadron of fighters in this space odyssey we’ve created.
Why did you focus on the chest physical therapy (PT) aspect of cystic fibrosis care?Wade: A lot of the other things that we [people with cystic fibrosis] deal with are ancillary, and they don’t spiral into big problems. If you don’t do your chest PTs, that’s when you get the really bad mucus build-up in your lungs and you get infections. Sean: I personally had a chance to watch one of Wade’s chest PT routines. And to go through something like that daily, even two to three times a day, it’s pretty intense.
Was it difficult to transform the chest physical therapy devices used by Wesley into his daydream starfighter without losing touch with reality?Sean: Not really so much. When we changed the chest PT device into the cockpit control panel, it’s in front of him. While he’s flying and fighting the aliens—the bacterium—that thing is always in front of him. It’s counting down, it’s the control panel, he has to reset it after a big event. It wasn’t that difficult to come up with an idea for that.
What has been the feedback on 508?Wade: The response has been far better than I could have ever imagined. I’ve had people from all over the country, different CF groups, spread the word about it, and want to use it with their kids. We’ve had some people ask if there is going to be a print run of it? Will there be more? That kind of stuff.Sean: We have a decent following on Facebook and it’s been a very good response. We’ve had some people from CF foundations as far away as Canada who’ve replied about it. So it’s been, for a small time comic book like this, it’s been a very decent response. We are still going to keep expanding, trying to get more and more people to see it. It’s still ongoing. It’s slow right now, but it’s still ongoing.
Do you have plans to produce more comic books about cystic fibrosis?Wade: Right now, we’re still tossing that ball around, because obviously Sean’s doing this pro bono, he’s not getting paid for it, he’s fitting it in with his other professional and personal responsibilities. It took us about a year to do this one, between all that he had to deal with and all that I deal with regularly.508 shows only a small piece of Wesley’s life.
What happens to him next?Wade: He went and he lived a long healthy life, and did whatever he wanted to do. He lived the greatest adventure of all—he lived life. For a child with CF, who’s facing a very uncertain future, that’s a wonderful thing.

How can I erase the accumulated sun damage on my face? I have a lot of rough spots and have been told I have AKs. What are they?
Actinic keratoses (AKs) are precancerous lesions often found as scaly, red spots on the face, ears and arms. Sun exposure and genetic predisposition (light skin and eye color in particular) are the two main factors leading to these lesions. Left untreated, about 10 percent of AKs turn into skin cancer or squamous cell carcinomas and require more aggressive therapy, typically surgery.
Treat AKs before they advance by having your skin evaluatated by your dermatologist. If only a few AKs are present, cryotherapy—freezing the lesions off—is effective. When many lesions are present topical medications can treat whole areas of skin. Chemical peels, laser resurfacing and light treatments are also available alternative therapies.
Sun protection helps prevent further damage and should include sun protective clothing and midday sun avoidance, in addition to sunscreen use. It’s especially helpful to develop regular protective patterns such as applying sunblock every morning.
Don’t let AKs multiply on your face. See a dermatologist if you find rough spots on your skin.
Keith Schumann, M.D.Ageless Dermatology757.564.1200
What causes TMJ pain? What happens if I do not treat it?
TMJ is the term for our tem-poromandibular joint, which opens and closes our jaw. It is part of the masticatory system that we use to chew our food, and includes the teeth and muscles of our head and neck. Pain in any of these areas is called TMD, or Temporomandib-ular Disorder. This pain can be caused by any number of reasons such as trauma, hormones, stress and malocclusion (teeth not fitting together properly). Malocclu-sion is the most common cause of TMJ pain. When our teeth do not fit together in a comfort-able TMJ position, the result is grinding or clenching of the teeth, which occurs mostly when we are sleeping, but can also be when we are awake. This can lead to migraine headaches, earaches, face, neck, shoulder, and jaw pain and also occlusal disease. If this disease is left untreated, it can lead to continued deterioration of the teeth which causes tooth pain and loss. In addition, the forces on the bone can cause progressive periodontal disease. It is important to be evaluated and treated before you feel there is a problem so that the solutions are much easier and affordable.
Stacey Sparkman Hall, D.D.S. Williamsburg Center for Dental Health757.565.6303
Q. Shoulder pain keeps me awake at night. What can I do to get some sleep?
It’s bad enough your shoulder hurts during the day, but pain at night is too much!
Shoulder pain is commonly due to the four small, deep, fine-tuning tendons that stabilize the shoulder: the rotator cuff. A thin, fluid-filled sac, called a bursa, covers the rotator cuff.
Night pain is frequently due to inflammation in the rotator cuff or bursa. These structures may be painfully compressed against part of the shoulder blade as you lift your arm under your pillow. Grav-ity pulls the arm downward when you are upright which relieves this compression. When laying flat, the effect of gravity is eliminated.
Reduce inflammation to enjoy a better night’s sleep. Taking an anti-inflammatory medicine in the evening with food and sleeping upright in a recliner allows gravity to reduce tendon compression. Exercises aimed at strengthening the rotator cuff provide long-term improvement. If these measures fail, you need an orthopedic specialist. A steroid injection may eliminate the inflammation and allow sleep. A specialist can also exclude other disorders that may require additional treatment.

just weeks after she was born, carly Simmons’ name was placed on the list for a heart transplant. Doctors told her parents that it could take up to three years for her to receive one. As hard as it is to find organs for adults in need, for children it is even harder. Organs need to be the right size, and children vary from a few pounds at birth up to 100 pounds as adolescents. In Carly’s case, the donor had to be within two to three pounds in weight, and a perfect blood type match.
Anne Paschke, from the United Network for Organ Sharing, says that many people die while on the waiting list for transplants every day, and others become too sick to receive a transplant as they wait. “Unfortunately, there are just too few donors. While 79 people are transplanted every day, another 20 die waiting,” she says.
Carly’s mom, Devin Vass, says that doctors prepared the family to wait. “They told us the odds were good but we would have to wait,” she says. Luckily, Carly received a heart transplant at 5 months old, just four months after being placed on the list.
“We know nothing about the donor, just that he or she was close to the same size, around 14 pounds,” Vass says. “Before Carly
got her heart, she would never be able to leave the hospital except to go to another hospital.”
While receiving a new heart saved Carly’s life, Vass admits feeling a lot of guilt while waiting. “I thought, am I praying for someone else’s baby to die to save mine? It was so hard. The doctors said ‘Don’t look at it that way. It takes something that doesn’t make sense and makes it meaningful.’ I tried to remember that,” Vass says.
Maggie Smith’s family faced a similar situation, finding out at 2 months old that Maggie would need a liver transplant. This type of transplant is unusual because the liver is the only organ to regenerate, and by transplanting just 20 percent of a liver, it can grow to the correct size in the recipient. It also regrows in the donor within two months.
Maggie’s mother, Joi, shared that again, the size of children in need of organs can be a limitation. “The problem with a partial adult liver is that the adult can be no more than 10 times the weight of the child. Maggie was only 17.5 pounds so the donor couldn’t be more than 175 pounds. It limited who could be a donor. In addition, when it comes to living donors there is an age factor; they can be no younger than 22 and

no older than 45.” The donor must also have the correct blood type.
“They gave us the green light to pursue family and friends for a living donor. Unfortunately it is an invasive procedure to be a living donor so a lot of people are nervous,” Smith says.
Two of Maggie’s cousins were tested and one was a match. But just about a week before the scheduled transplant, a deceased donor matched Maggie’s blood type and the transplant happened quickly. She was a year old and at that point, doctors estimated she’d live less than six months without a transplant.
Carly is now 3 years old and Maggie is 7. Each year, their families celebrate their “transplanniversary” date. Carly’s family releases balloons, with a special balloon for her donor. Maggie’s family uses the chance to encourage people signing up for organ donation and to remember the 14-year-old donor.
“We tell her ‘It’s your second chance at life!’” says Vass.
Paschke emphasizes that it’s easy to register to be a donor; it takes a few minutes, but the impact is immense. “You have the power to save lives. Just one person saves or enhances the lives of up to 50 people by signing up to be an organ, eye and tissue donor on their state registry,” she says.
Some people think they are too old or sick to donate, but UNOS says that people should sign up and then let their medical professional determine if they can donate at the time of death. “People in their early 90s have been (deceased) liver donors. And even people with active cancer have become cornea donors,” Paschke says.
Both families want to share their experiences to encourage people to donate their organs. “Don’t take your organs with you—save someone like this little girl,” Vass says.

ready?
Come to a squatting position, feet flat on the ground and toes pointing slightly outwards. Push your knees apart with elbows so that your torso fits between them, knees hugging at sides. Place your hands on the floor, palms down, fingers spread comfortably apart. Bend your elbows, shift your weight forward, engage the abs and lift your your knees onto the backs of the triceps. Your feet will come off the floor. Touch your big toes together and affix your gaze several inches beyond your fingers. Hold the posture for a few seconds, working up to 30 seconds. To come out of the posture, slowly return the feet to the floor and end in a squat. If you are having trouble balancing, place a block or other steadying object in front of you and rest your forehead on it. Beginners can try lifting one foot at a time to develop balance. This posture is a more advanced arm balance; consider asking someone to assist you.
Hands and wrists
Strengthens muscles in the fingers, wrists and forearms—may help relieve symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome.
Upper arms/chest
Builds upper arm and chest strength—try to keep weight out of the shoulders.
Abdominals
Lifting and balancing recruits and strengthens abdominal muscles.
Triceps
Engaging the triceps to support your weight will strengthen these muscles.

November
Televisions CarsWedding Dresses
December
Televisions are among the most popluar and sought after Black Friday prizes. But make sure the deal you’re eyeing is really a deal. Buy products from brands you trust, compare prices and remember that if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Boost your negotiation power by waiting to purchase a car until December, and even moreso December 31, says Kiplinger. Dealers will be eager to put you in the car you want at a price that makes you happy since monthly and annual sales goals need to be met.
Getting married within the next year? If you don’t mind the dresses from the current year, you can get a steal from bridal boutiques. Gown prices are slashed by as much as 70 percent to accommodate the newest styles, says Kiplinger.
Appliances
Since the newer models have hit the stores in September and October, large appliances, like washers and dryers, ranges and dishwashers, have to be sold to clear space on the sales floor, says Bankrate.com.

National retailers mark down this year’s golf clubs by 40 to 50 percent. While you’re not getting the latest and greatest, you’re getting a great deal on excellent clubs. “Year to year, the ‘hitabiliy’ of clubs tends to be more hype than reality, especially for the average player,” says Brett Billick, senior vice president of Deals2Buy.com and 30-year golf pro.

e predict individual donors will give at least $100 billion to charities this holiday season, a level consistent with giving during the last several year-end giving seasons.
If you are among the millions of donors who do plan to give, then be thoughtful in selecting
which charities to fund. Consider the the following tips to ensure you are more confident in the charities on the receiving end of your generosity this holiday season and beyond:
• think about the long term: Like investing, giving should be driven by long-term goals. Dropping some change in the bucket outside the mall isn’t going to change the world. Responsible philanthropy is more sophisticated and requires that you define what you hope your giving accomplishes and then develop a plan to reach those goals. And when give, don’t settle for organizations that aren’t an exact match for your goals. Take at least a bit of time to find it and confirm (not just assume) the charity offers the programs and services that match your charitable aspirations.
Before you give to any charity, be sure to check that the charity meets these three criteria.
1. fiscal health: Financially healthy organizations—those that are both financially efficient and sustainable—have greater flexibility and freedom to pursue their charitable mission.
2. accountability & transparency: Generally speaking, charities that are accountable follow good governance practices and

are therefore less likely to engage in unethical or irresponsible activities so, the risk that charities would misuse donations is lower than for charities that don’t adopt such practices. In addition, an organization that is transparent will share its performance openly with the public. Therefore all stakeholders can investigate the details of the charity’s work without having to struggle for access to the information.
3. results: Knowing what the charity has accomplished is a critical step; after all, the charity’s ability to bring about long lasting and meaningful change in the world is the key reason for their existence and what you want your donation to be used for. They should be able to tell you more than just the number of activities or people served and speak to the quality and depth of their results as well as their capacity to continue to get these results.
• be wary of crowdfunding sites: Over the past year, especially immediately following a disaster or tragedy when legitimate charities haven’t yet determined their planned charitable response, crowdfunding sites have stepped in as an alternative way to give. But don’t be fooled by the glossy appearance of these sites with compelling videos and storytelling. With little to no vetting going on by these platforms, they are a very risky way to donate. Even if the messaging on a fund indicates that it will be used for a charitable purpose, there is nothing preventing the solicitor from using the money for a lavish vacation or a new sports car.
• give online in one place: No one likes to think about taxes, especially during the holidays. But if you want to deduct your charitable contributions on your 2014 tax return, you have until December 31st to make your donations.

f the Grinch has stolen your healthy holiday, check out these tips from Richard Stein, professor of medicine and cardiology at the New York University School of Medicine in New York City and a spokesman for the American Heart Association.Go in with a plan. For example, make a pact with
yourself during the holidays: “For these three weeks I will get at least 30 minutes of activity per day, I’ll have a reasonably healthy breakfast and lunch and limit the sweets. And I’ll leave my meds out on the dresser so I won’t leave the house without having taken them.” Then return to your usual heart-healthy routine (if you have one) once the holidays are over.Beware of party perils. Special holiday events often serve up extra helpings of high-fat foods. Too many sugary or salty treats can be a concern for those with high blood pressure or hypertension, secondhand smoke is a concern for everyone and events that run late into the night mean that you won’t be too enthusiastic about exercising. If you’re a guest, plan on eating a healthy snack before you go and consciously choose to eat less at the event. If you’re the host, challenge yourself to whip up a delicious and heart-healthy menu. Your guests will probably thank you!Stay active—even in the hustle and bustle of the season. Sprinkle in some healthy behaviors with your daily activities. For example, if the weather isn’t too frightful, get off the bus several blocks early and walk to work or school.

In “The Nightmare Before Christmas,” who does Lock, Shock and Barrel accidently kidnap instead of Santa Claus?
As the film “Miracle On 34th Street” opens, Kris informs a shop owner that he is mistaken in his arrangment of “_____” in a store-front display.
If dinner is going to be a feast, opt for a light lunch, then take a vigorous walk or pick up the pace on family activities. When the kids are home from school, squeeze in some active chores and trips to the park.But not too active. Give yourself the gift of peace. When the invitations pile up, if you can’t say no, it’s not fun — cardiovascularly, cognitively or socially. Hold your own schedule and don’t overbook yourself.Lay out a plan for January, February and beyond. Your poinsettia’s pooped and the eggnog’s gone. Now what? It’s great that you want to start doing healthy things— like exercising 30 minutes a day or making an appointment to get your blood pressure checked—but don’t go dashing through your to-do list too fast or you might not stick to your plan. Lay out realistic steps for the months ahead. For example, instead of joining a gym, you might want to start a vigorous walking program first. It’s free, and it’s a great way to fit in more physical activity.

• Preheat oven to 350 F.
• Chop rolls into cubes and lay in a single layer on
a cookie sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes until dried
out. (They should feel like croutons.)
• In a skillet, brown the sausage, remove to
another bowl once cooked—do not drain fat.
• Add in the onions and celery and cook over
medium heat until translucent and soft. Add olive
oil if the sausage didn’t render enough fat.
• Add in the garlic and cook for about 2 minutes,
or until the garlic fragrance has subsided.
• Turn the heat off. Transfer the cubed bread to
a big bowl. Add sage, sausage, blueberries and
celery-onion mixture. Mix the contents together.
• Slowly begin to add chicken stock, one cup at a
time mixing with ingredients.
• When the bread clumps together when squeezed,
then you’ve added enough.
• Take a quick taste, you’ll probably want to add
pepper more than salt, because the chicken
stock already has a lot of sodium.
• Transfer completed stuffing to a casserole dish
and bake for 30 minutes uncovered. If you want
to get a nice crust on top, add a few pats of
butter to the top before baking.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the cranberry
sauce, balsamic vinegar and oil.
• Add your Thanksgiving leftovers to a salad bowl
or plate.
• Pour desired amount of cranberry vinaigrette
over everything and enjoy.

Chocolate Pecan PieSweet Potato Orange Dinner Rolls
After all the great sides and delicous entrees this holiday season, you’ll have to top it all off with a slice of this decedant chocolate pecan pie.

4 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups pecans
3 eggs
1 cup white sugar*
3 tablespoons melted butter
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 tablespoon Vanilla extract
* Or use light brown sugar
1 packet Red Star active dry yeast
2 1/2 cups all-purpose gluten-free flour mix
1/4 cup tapioca starch*
3 T ground golden flax**
1 teaspoon xantham gum
1 1/4 t sea salt

1/2 cup warm water
1/4 cup orange juice***
3/4 cup smoothly mashed

• Preheat oven to 375° F.
• Place pie crust in a 9 inch pie pan flute
the edges.
• In a medium sized bowl, whisk the eggs.
• Once the eggs are beaten, add the sugar, butter,
corn syrup and vanilla extract, whisking until
combined.
• Pour the mixture into pie crust over pecans and
chocolate chips*
• Bake approximately 10 minutes at 375° F, then
lower the heat to 350° F and bake for 20-25
minutes or until filling is set.
• Let cool about 30 minutes before serving.
*Pecans will float to the top
• Grease a 9 x 13 inch metal baking pan.
• In a standing mixer (paddle attachment) combine the flour, tapioca starch, ground flax, xanthan gum, sea salt, brown sugar, and yeast.
• Add the the oil, eggs, warm water, orange juice, sweet potato puree, and orange zest.
• Mix for 2-3 minutes on medium speed (adequate mixing is very important for gluten-free breads). The batter will be very thick and sticky and should NOT clear the sides of the mixing bowl - Add an additional tablespoon or two of warm water if the dough looks too dry.
• Using a greased muffin scoop, or large spoon, drop rounds of dough (4 tablespoons each) into prepared pan. Nestle the dough 11/2 inches apart so it has a bit of room to rise.
• Cover loosely with oiled plastic wrap and place in a warm (80° F) place. Allow the rolls to rise until they are double in size: 60-75 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375° F.
• Bake the rolls on the center rack for 10 minutes. Remove the rolls from oven and quickly brush the tops with a beaten egg.
• Return rolls to the oven and bake for 40 more minutes or until deep golden brown. To prevent the tops of your rolls from getting too dark, loosely drape a piece of aluminum foil over the top for the last 10-15 minutes.
• Allow the rolls to cool in the pan briefly, then carefully turn them out and cool on a rack (to avoid soggy bottoms) for 20 minutes before serving. Serve warm.

it’s happened again—the spring and summer months have zipped on by and we’re nearing the end of fall and quickly welcoming in the holiday season.
The holidays are a wonderful time of year. They’re full of all the good stuff. Lots of laughter and rosy cheeks garnished with the vibrant company of friends and family. Of course, there will probably be the occasional brisk breeze, too. That’s OK though, because we’ve compiled a tasteful list of seasonal drink recipes to accompany you at every occasion.
We’ve got martinis to enjoy with close friends, rimmed in crushed peppermint or graham cracker crumbs, a spicy take on hot chocolate to curl up with by the fireplace and a variety of classy, non-alcoholic “mocktails” to dress up your glassware if alcohol isn’t on the menu. Don’t forget to try the Chaider, quick to make and a great way to put cozy in a mug and take it with you on the go.
‘Tis the season to be many things and we hope that warm and happy will be a part of it. Enjoy responsibly and cheers to another great year.

retirement is supposed to be the time to enjoy rest after all those years of toil. but aging and retirement bring their own stressors, including financial worries, age-related health problems and a major transition in identity.
Researchers are still figuring out exactly how stress affects the body, but interesting developments have been made involving telomeres, the genetic material that protects your cells. As people age, telomeres shorten. According to the American Institute of Stress, chronic stress speeds up this decline, leading to cellular aging and possibly making you more susceptible to cancer and other diseases.
So managing stress is crucial. But how? 5WAYS TO MANAGE STRESS
![Page 45: The Health Journal Holiday Edition 2014](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042618/568ca6c41a28ab186d92aa3f/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
MEDITATION Meditation reduces stress because meditators learn to become
less reactive to their thoughts. Instead of getting increasingly spun out about your worries, “you have space to consider your reac-tion rather than being led by those thoughts,” says Leo Babauta, founder of zenhabits.net and author of several books on medita-tion. He recommends starting with as little as two minutes a day of simply meditating on breath. Various studies have found that seniors who meditate are less lonely and may decrease their risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.
EXERCISEExercise boosts the release of endorphins, those neurotrans-
mitters in your brain that make you feel good. Regular exercise also boosts self-confidence, improves sleep and lowers your risk for depression and anxiety, according to the Mayo Clinic. Just be sure to pick activities you enjoy, whether that means swimming, walking or square dancing.
NATUREThe Japanese have a poetic name for the soothing effects of
escaping the city for nature: Shinrinyoku, or forest bathing. Dr. Qing Li, president of the Japanese Society of Forest Medicine, has conducted several studies on forest bathing’s efficacy. His results suggest that time in nature increases vigor while reducing feelings of anxiety, anger and depression.
HUMAN CONTACTFeeling like you must be totally self-reliant is stressful. Most
people feel better when they spend time with other people, whether in a recreational activity or a heart-to-heart talk. Human touch is also important. Many seniors, especially if they’re single or widowed, have few opportunities for touch. So hug a friend or, if it’s in your budget, get a massage. Nathalie Longpre, who owns several spas in Quebec City, Quebec, believes in the power of touch and connection. “People come here to have somebody take care of them,” she says. “Human contact is important.”
LEARN TO SAY NOOnce you retire, some relatives and friends might see your
stretches of free time as very convenient. For them. They may expect taxi service, endless supervision of your grandkids or other favors. Honestly assess how much time and energy you are willing to devote to these tasks. Sure, you probably want to help out in a pinch. But if you are too accommodating, others will take advantage of you and you’ll build up resentments against them. Good boundaries make good relationships, and keeps stress to a manageable level.

EAT FROM THE RAINBOW “good nutrition is essential to a strong immune system and it can offer seasonal protection from illnesses, as well as other health problems like allergies,” says Joan Sechrist, PhD, RD, with Optima Health and Sentara Healthcare. VACCINATE Stay current on your child’s immunizations. “Immunizations in younger years can help prevent disease as kids grow into adults,” Sechrist says.GET ADEQUATE SLEEP Kids need between eight to 12 hours of sleep a night to help keep their bodies strong. Stick to a regular, calming evening routine. Also, power down distracting electronic devices that can interrupt sleep. EXERCISE REGULARLY Active kids are healthier kids. Experts recommend that kids get 60 minutes of physical activity every day.TEACH HAND-WASHING Basic hand-washing with soap and water prevents the spread of disease. Have your child lather for 20 seconds or say the ABCs twice. Avoid overuse of sanitizers, which destroys good and bad bacteria on the hands.TAKE PROBIOTICS “Probiotics are fabulous in and of themselves for gut integrity,” says Shelly Clevidence, a naturopathic doctor in Virginia Beach, Virginia. “For increasing the immune system, they don’t have to be live.” Look for probiotics in pill form or in foods. If your child is sick, avoid dairy products, which contribute to inflammation and mucus build-up.TRY CASTOR OIL Extruded from the castor bean plant, castor oil can be rubbed on your child’s belly at night when the immune system is most active, says Leah Hollon, a naturopathic doctor with Richmond Natural Medicine. Castor oil, she says, is both anti-cancer and an anti-inflammatory.
“Castor oil is pretty amazing. We find it helps bring more white blood cells into the blood stream to help fight infection,” Hollon says. “It also helps get that histamine response down for some kids that have allergies, and it helps them have a good bowel movement.” Constipation issues can be worse during flu and cold season. POWER UP WITH OMEGA-3S A recent study published in the Journal of Leukocyte Biology suggests that omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil and plant sources, like flax seeds, chia seeds, Brussels sprouts and cauliflower, could also help boost immune function.

8 NATURAL WAYS TO BOOST IMMUNITY FOR KIDSRECIPE COURTESY: SHELLY CLEVIDENCE, ND
HOMEMADE CHICKEN BROTH
INGREDIENTS
DIRECTIONS
Bone broth is an inexpensive, nutrient-rich stimulant for the immune system.
Try to integrate these VITAMINS and NUTRIENTS into your family’s diet:
❥ Organic chicken bones ❥ Organic vegetables
(vegetable scraps are fine like carrot peels, tips of celery, etc.) ❥ Water ❥ 3 Tablespoons-1/4 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
1. Place the chicken bones and vegetables in a crock-pot.2. Cover with the water and apple cider vinegar. Cook on low for a day or day and a half.3. After cooking, strain the vegetables and bones and discard. 4. Use broth for chicken noodle soup or freeze in muffin tins and pop out for use in soups,
sauteeing vegetables or as flavoring for other meals.
PROTEIN boosts the body’s defense system (lean meats, beans, nuts, eggs, soy products and seeds).
VITAMIN A helps keep the skin, respiratory system and tissues in your mouth, stomach and intestines healthy (sweet potatoes, carrots, kale, spinach and apricots).
VITAMIN E is an antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals in the body (sunflower seeds, almonds, hazelnuts, peanut butter, sunflower/safflower oils and spinach).
ZINC is a nutrient that helps wounds heal and keeps the immune system working properly (lean meats, poultry, seafood, milk, whole grain products, beans and nuts).
VITAMIN C stimulates the formation of antibodies that fight infection (citrus fruits, red bell pepper, papaya and tomato juice).

HARDCORE3 SIMPLE EXERCISES TO BUILD
CORE STRENGTH
❥ WRITTEN BY BRIDGIT KIN-CHARLTON, C.P.T
the most important muscle group in your body may be your core. They literally hold you up. Your core muscles are responsible for posture and are the basis of your strength. Your arms, legs and head rely on your core for support and balance.
Standing exercises demand the most from your core. If you’re seated or lying down, your body uses any surface you recline on to create stability, making the core lazy. Endless sets of situps and leg raises take your core only so far. Consider adding these three simple and effective exercises to your weekly workout, and you will be lifting, walking, sitting, reading and talking with increased strength and better posture.
The overhead press is a full-body exercise offering a dramatic core training effect. Grip the bar as it rests on your clavicle. Take a deep breath to create abdominal pressure and activate the muscles of your inner core. Tighten your glutes to lock your hips in place and tighten your abs to keep the rib cage down. Contract the core hard, press the weight up and hold the weight overhead. Your inner core, abs and glutes should feel tight and locked before letting the weight down. Complete 3-4 sets of 8-12 reps on an upper body training day.
OVERHEAD PRESS

ROMAN DEADLIFTS SUITCASE CARRIESBend the knees slightly and keep the shins vertical, hips back and
back straight. Keeping your back and arms completely straight at all times, use your hips to lift the bar as you exhale. The movement should not be fast but steady and under control. Once you are standing completely straight up, lower the bar by pushing the hips back, only slightly bending the knees, unlike when squatting. Com-plete 3-4 sets of 10-15 reps on a lower body training day.
The suitcase carry is the simplest core exercise of all. Hold weight in one hand, get as tall as possible, and take it for a walk while resisting the weight’s pull on your body. Dumbbells, kettle-bells and barbells work well as training implements. Barbells are the most difficult but offer the greatest grip and core stabilization challenge. Do 3-4 sets of 25-40 steps on each side of your body.
Compassion. Excellence. Reliability.

Your doctors. Your facilities. Our commitment to Williamsburg.
Heading to the Emergency Department means you need medical treatment.That’s why we work hard to make sure you will be seen as quickly as possible.
• Advanced technology and an electronic medical record assist our staff in initiating diagnostic testing quickly.
• Help us to help you by carrying your medication list with you on your visit.
• RDHW is staffed by Board-Certified Emergency Physicians 24/7/365.
• Many patients can alert us that they are headed our way by using InQuicker, an online program that works similarly to “call ahead seating” at a restaurant. Go to Riversideonline.com. You can’t always avoid accidents and illness. But you can avoid long waitsfor emergency treatment. Count on Riverside for care that is effective,efficient and fast.
