BREAST RECONSTRUCTIONBreast reconstruction is preformed for several different reasons. It is done after the removal of one or both breasts for the treatment of cancer. It can also be done alone with mastectomy for preventative treatment in women with a strong family history of cancer. In some young women one breast never develops and reconstruction is done to give symmetry to the underdeveloped side. The overall goal in reconstruction is to help a woman feel more natural and more confident in their appearance following

mastectomy. There are three main procedures used for breast reconstruction.

You can feel your stresses start to melt away simply by reading the mission of Soul Movement Studio: Our mission at Soul is

to create an accepting, nurturing, and peaceful atmosphere in which you can learn, grow, and reconnect with your soul.

The studio opened in southeast Sioux Falls earlier this summer, and just by reading comments from students on the studio’s Facebook page, it is obvious that Soul is already making a positive impact on people’s lives.

Owner Gretchen Borgum has a simple and clear answer to the question, “Why are you opening a studio?”

“Yoga saved my life,” she says, “and I want to share that gift with others.”

In 1992, Borgum explains, her then 9 month-old niece and her sister were diagnosed HIV positive. Borgum was 20 years old and facing the thought of losing her sister and her niece.

“Yoga became my safe place; my sanctuary,” she says. “It’s where I could cry, breathe, somehow laugh, get angry, and sweat it out! When I lost my sister and niece, I felt as if my world was stripped away from me. My yoga teacher insisted I come to class. That is what I did, and in doing so, little by little, I found my joy again.

She moved to Southern California where she taught Kindergarten through 8th grade music alongside yoga. Next came a move to Chicago where she continued to teach music and yoga, and it was there Borgum discovered her love for Pilates. She completed her first Pilates teacher training in the classic method and then moved on to Pilates reformer teacher training at Pilates on Fifth in Manhattan in New York. Borgum has experience teaching at studios throughout the U.S.

Soul offers a wide array of programs for individuals of all ages. The studio has group classes including yoga, t’ai chi, meditation and nia - a cardio-dance workout that combines simple moves with dance arts, martial arts, and healing arts. They also offer Pilates Mat and Pilates Chair classes and a yoga chair class to

reverse the effect of aging.There are also opportunities to participate in group meditation

sessions, which Borgum says helps build a lasting habit of self-compassion and awareness. There are also special prenatal and motherhood programs to support women before, during and after pregnancy. You can also schedule a private lesson with one of the studio’s expert instructors.

“One of the things I think is so important is acceptance,” says Borgum. “We have respect and appreciation for beginners and those who are more experienced. We support our students from wherever they are in their lives, and we welcome them on this journey to a deeper connection to the soul.”

Little yogis are welcome at Soul as well, with a selection of kid’s yoga, t’ai chi and kid’s music workshops.

Because of their attention to the environment at the studio, Soul has developed special etiquette, that includes arriving in plenty of time before class and putting shoes in the designated cubbies, as the studio has a cork floor designed for bare feet. They ask students to keep fragrances light and turn the cell phones off to support the clean and quiet atmosphere.

Class schedules are offered as early as 5:30 a.m. or into early evening hours to accommodate busy schedules. And, the studio offers a menu of class and pricing options, such as a one-, five- or ten-class pass, an unlimited monthly pass or special “series” prices for programs like Music & Movement (4-week series for preschool ages), and Kid’s Yoga (ages 6-12). Discounted pricing is available for military, students and those over sixty.

The studio is celebrating their grand opening week September 21- 28. During that week all classes will be only $5 (+tax) and there will be a few special events as well. The official ribbon cutting will be Monday, September 28, with an open house from 4:15-6:15 p.m. catered by Chef Jeni. Borgum says everyone is welcome and encouraged to come and meet the studio team.

“I love what I do,” says Borgum. “Yoga and Pilates show me that life is beautiful. It’s hard. It’s easy. It’s breath, movement, song, and love. When we learn to ride the tides, release and be present, we are blessed by joy.”

FOr MOre INFOrMATION, PLeASe CALL 605-275-2071.

For the past 15 years, the front door of Family Visitation Center (FVC) has

rattled repeatedly as one excited child after another anxiously waits to gain

entrance. Seven days a week, 362 days a year, they run across our parking lot,

jiggle the door latch, and rush down our stairs with anticipation and shrieks of

delight. They get to spend time with mom or dad.

Children deserve to grow up feeling and being safe with positive

memories of childhood. FVC has maintained its commitment to ensuring

that children enjoy positive, meaningful, and safe time with family since

opening in September of 2000.

Children in FVC’s programs have witnessed their families invaded by

domestic violence, child abuse, substance abuse, and/or separation caused

by divorce and custody disputes. Not only do children want – they NeeD

- positive memories of their childhood with the people they call family.

Last year those memories were created during 4,353 hours of supervised

visitation provided to 463 children during their weekly visitations –

memories observed by a staff of 17 visitation monitors.

Providing safety to children through supervised visitation is central to

FVC’s mission and essential to the well-being and strength of families in Sioux

Falls and the surrounding rural areas. The FVC team believes all children:

• are hopeful and resilient, deserving of our community’s commitment to

their healthy, safe, and nurtured growth;

• have the right to be kids and feel safe and free from harm in mind, body,

and spirit;

• have the right to grow up knowing and having meaningful relationships

with their parents and other people in their lives;

• who grow up feeling safe and valued will be better parents, thereby

breaking the cycle of poor parenting and violence; and

• parents deserve the foundation to be good parents and the skills and

tools to frame healthy relationships.

Sioux Falls VA Women’s Health Clinic Now Open Designed BY and FOR Women

How do you open a clinic to provide medical care for women Veterans? The Sioux Falls VA Health Care System faced this

question in 2011. Patient satisfaction surveys from 2009 and 210 revealed women Veterans felt strongly the VA should have a clinic to meet their unique needs. With the majority of Veterans served having experienced military sexual trauma, there was a critical need for a separate/private space for women.

Two focus groups met in 2011 and 2012 to identify what women Veterans wanted in a clinic. This opportunity gave them the opportunity to be a part of the clinic from its beginning. The groups made recommendations such as wanting a “spa-like” environment, employing only women, and requesting the services they use most. They also offered suggestions about details such as the artwork, gowns and robes, and how they’d prefer to be greeted. The focus group results were provided to VA leadership along with research extolling the benefits of a Women’s Health Clinic and local data about clinic usage and access.

While the majority of women Veterans are younger (average age of women using Sioux Falls VA services is 46), there are many women Veterans in their 80s and 90s. Though their physical needs

are diverse, they are unified by their service and sacrifice to our country; and the clinic must meet the needs of all ages.

A decision was made to remodel existing space for a clinic. Including women who would use the clinic in the planning was essential as the VA is a champion of patient-centered care. With the women’s input, staff who would work in the clinic met with architects over a 12-month period to help design the clinic to meet the wishes and clinical needs of women patients. A group of women Veterans reviewed and approved the plans.

When the time came, another group of women Veterans met with the architectural interior designer to select flooring, paint colors, furniture and accents. Guiding them was the idea of a relaxing atmosphere. Soft blues, tans, and taupe are the predominant colors used. A beautiful tiled wall with blues and greens gives the appearance of a waterfall, while the reception desk is back lit and features wheat imbedded into the glass. Incorporating the healing power of nature was key.

Government funding allowed design of the clinic in 2013 and then construction began in January 2015.

The clinic is now a reality. Special attention was paid to

placement of the exam tables and having adjacent bathrooms – things important to women. The exam tables can be heated and are equipped with scales. No weights taken in the hallway of this clinic! There are four exam/gynecological procedure rooms with attached bathrooms. This allows two to three providers to be in the clinic at one time. Margaret Devick, MD, the Women’s Health Medical Director, will see women in the clinic along with Lindsey Mayer, who has her Doctorate as a Nurse Practitioner. They will provide women with all their health care needs, including prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases. Gynecologist, Shelley Morrison, MD will join the clinic in October. Social work and mental health services will also be provided within the clinic. A team pharmacist and dietician are also available. Staff will focus not only on medical care for women Veterans, but also their emotional and spiritual needs. Though all services a woman may need are provided for by VA, some will continue to be provided in the community, such as mammography and obstetrical and infertility services.

Prior to the clinic opening, the all-female staff held a retreat. It

was their time to dream. They reviewed the list of recommendations from women Veterans and made plans to meet each of these. The staff also brainstormed about making the clinic the best possible place for women. With Integrative Health Services already available at the VA, the new clinic team has hopes to incorporate aromatherapy, acupuncture, and massage. They also plan to promote the VA’s yoga and tai chi classes and explore offering Zumba. Plans for art therapy, spirituality groups, and cooking classes are all in the works.

The Women’s Health Clinic was opened with thoughtful input from those who will use it and those who will work in it. Together, the women Veterans of the Sioux Falls VA and the staff of the Women’s Health Clinic have built a clinic to serve the needs of women for years to come.

LOFTY LiViNGAT HOME WiTH

Paul & Michelle LavalleeBy Mary Michaels | Photos By Julie Prairie PhotograPhy

Sioux Falls offers a wide array of housing options, from houses that are part of an established neighborhood to

newly-constructed homes and from more traditional apartments to downtown lofts.

Paul and Michelle Lavallee spent many years enjoying their spacious French Tudor-style home in central Sioux Falls, but the day came when they decided it was time to downsize. And, as if downsizing isn’t challenging enough, their new destination was a downtown loft apartment.

To help them through the transition, the Lavallees enlisted the help of local designer Daniel Paulson, who had a wealth of experience working with big spaces during his days as a designer in Los Angeles.

It was quite an undertaking for the couple to prepare for a

30 nest | at home

move to the loft from a house three times its size. They focused on the pieces from their house that meant the most to them and that would work in the new space, which has two bedrooms and two and a half baths and a large living space that incorporates the kitchen, dining area, living room and office area.

Some of the pieces that made the move were furniture, others were items from their travels like an ornately-carved wall hanging of a Moroccan door that now occupies the office area. The couple also had several pieces of art that were previously hung throughout their house.

“Because they were hung in different rooms all over the house, we just didn’t notice them as much,” says Michelle. “It’s fun now because they are all right here together where we can enjoy them.”

While there were some unique elements already in the space, such as exposed ductwork, a granite-top island and glass tile backsplash in the kitchen, the décor was otherwise neutral when they moved in last October, says Michelle, so having Paulson’s assistance with adding their own character to the loft

was extremely helpful.“We couldn’t have done this without Daniel,” she says. “I

can’t put things together like he does, and I would never have thought you could take a neutral room and paint one wall orange!”

But, that’s just what they did in the master bedroom to add a pop of color. The deep, rich wood of the ornate bedroom set they brought from their house blends with the burnt orange to create a very warm, comfortable look.

They transformed the walls in the main living space with a light blue color, giving the appearance that they have brought the sky indoors as they look out through the walls of windows overlooking Falls Park. While the loft enjoys plenty of natural sunlight, Paulson helped the Lavallees create a lighting scheme throughout the home that is both fashionable and functional. The result is a perfect example of how mixing traditional and modern can work.

A chandelier that made the move with them hangs over the oversized wood desk in Paul’s office area, which also features

industrial-looking bookshelves with a traditional library ladder leaned against them. Another of the Lavallee’s chandeliers from their former house – an exquisite Venetian Murano glass one that was a wedding present to themselves – is suspended over a concrete-topped dining table with large upholstered chairs at either end and a row of Louis XV clear acrylic ghost chairs on either side.

Clear glass pendant lights hang over the island in the kitchen, and smaller mercury glass pendant lights hang over the seating area in the living room. Table lamps throughout the loft also provide the Lavallee’s the flexibility to adjust the lighting to fit the occasion.

One thing that Paulson taught them through his design was that you can create a look that is stylish, but that doesn’t mean

you sacrifice comfort or that you have to buy the most expensive things. The full-length yellow, trellis-patterned drapes came from the store, and Paulson used pieces of galvanized steel pipe to create the hardware to hang them from the ceiling.

“This living space is like one room with five personalities,” says Paul. “You can entertain guests at the dining table or have more casual conversations sitting in the living room or on the

patio while enjoying the two-way fireplace. I can sit at my desk and work looking out the window at Falls Park, but I can also see into the living room and catch the financial news on the television.”

As grandparents – and loving having family around – sometimes Paul’s financial news might be replaced with an episode of Garfield or Mickey Mouse. But, the Lavallees

wouldn’t have it any other way.The couple has been part of the business, health care and

financial world for many years. They still keep busy – Paul being able to work from home and Michelle starting a new venture of her own in a downtown office space just a couple of blocks away. They still love to travel as well, but they agree there’s no place like home.

“We love having family and friends around,” says Michelle. “And now, being downtown is great. It’s so alive down here with everyone out walking, biking and driving by. We can be part of the downtown events, and in the evenings, we can just sit outside and hear the water rushing over the falls.”

SUCCESS IS ONE HONESTCONVERSATION

AWAY

38 nest | man in the Kitchen

The sun struggles up later and later each morning and it races back down a little earlier every night. The kids

are putting on their back to school clothes and piling their overstuffed backpacks into moms’ SUVs and minivans again. All the signs point to the waning days of summer; but my tomato plants haven’t gotten the memo quite yet. This morning I looked up from the daily paper to see more spots of red peeking out of the foliage; just last night I had picked all of the ripe fruit. I can’t keep up.

early in the summer, I can’t wait to pluck that first tomato from the vine. I watch each plant carefully, monitoring the ripeness and readiness of individual pieces of fruit. I delicately pluck leaves from the basil plants and carefully prune the

rosemary so I have just enough herbs for my meal; but don’t want to damage the plants or waste any by harvesting even a little too much.

But by the first days of September, I start offering the extra bounty to friends and relatives. And I know I’m not alone. I see the Facebook posts about the beginning of canning season or the first big batches of salsa. Soon people start admitting they planted too much this year. The wide-eyed anticipation of April has given way to autumnal overabundances. By this time of year, if someone asks if you want a few zucchini, we all try to avoid eye contact. I confess that I have asked an unsuspecting neighbor if she “wanted a few zucchini” and then surprised her with a pair of squash the length, girth and weight of newborn

The Other Side of SummerThere’s malice and there’s magic in every seasonBy JiM Mathis


twins. I’d eaten so many by that time I didn’t even feel remorse. I’ve since stopped planting zucchini.

As we’ve gotten older, we’ve shrunk our garden to a more manageable size but we still end up with tomatoes and herbs that we can’t use. right now we’re starting to get tired of the same thing several nights a week, but come December we will wish we could just step outside and collect some fresh goodies. So this fall I’m going to try a few things to try to save some of today’s bounty for the winter.

I love fresh basil, and I know that come winter I will crave the bright green leaves. So this year I’m going to freeze pureed basil in ice cube trays, then save the little green cubes for later. I’ve been told it works great, so wish me luck.

As for those extra tomatoes, there’s something I’ve wanted to try; making my own ketchup from scratch. I know that sounds a little freaky, but every now and then I look at the list of ingredients on a bottle of ketchup and think it should be simpler than that. I’ve done a little research and Jamie Oliver has a nice looking recipe out there. And there are several recipes for making spicier versions that I’d like to try. The spicy ketchup at Michael Symon’s Lola in Cleveland was awesome, and he has recipes online, but they all start with the store bought stuff. I think it would be even better if I used a homemade version as a base.

Now if you’ll excuse me, the tiny sapling of mint I planted in May is taking over part of the yard. The tomatoes are ripening before my eyes and even the rabbits think I planted too much parsley. Do yourself a favor, eat something good today.

When Jim’s not in the kitchen, he’s creating ads and marketing communications for his clients at ADwërks in downtown Sioux Falls.

Mary Olinger remembers that defining moment, that forever changed her life. Her prayers were answered, as she was still alive, after the horrible accident, even though her body was broken into pieces, she felt blessed, knowing God will do the mending of her shattered life.

Megan Fischer’s life changing story, “Rock bottom became the solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life. Since the moment I learned my husband of 6 weeks, was not coming home to me, I vowed to carry on his Legacy of living life to the fullest.”

Pam Tebow, refused to abort her baby Tim Tebow, even after she was told they could both die. She will share her story about encouraging women to trust in the Lord with all their hearts, and use that incredible influence God has given them to eternally impact their world.

Back To Vino SchoolBy riccardo taraBelsi

Wow, it’s been a long summer and the

kids are back in school. Lots of major

transitions at my house: my oldest, Dante,

is a freshman in high school (What?! When

did that happen?) and my youngest, Jaxon,

is a sixth-grader, starting his middle school

career. My middle son, Berent, is a seventh-

grader and continues to redefine what it

means to be the middle child. Not enough

pages in this magazine to begin telling

stories about him. But seriously, this time

of year, when the kids pack their backpacks

and put on their new sneakers, I get a little

nostalgic. I loved the first day of school. New

classes, new teachers, new students, new

experiences, and, of course, new knowledge.

In that spirit, it’s time for a back-to-school

quiz for all of you wine-lovers. Take the test

and prove you’re the best. Carpe Vino!

Four Easy Steps to Better Breast HealthSanford HealtH

Your Preventive Care Plan

A breast cancer diagnosis is sadly something many people know about firsthand. Whether it’s your mother, sister, aunt

or friend, we all know someone who has been touched by this disease. But as technology improves and knowledge grows, detecting breast cancer at its earliest and most curable stage is now easier than ever before.

(605) 275-9535 • 6209 S. Pinnacle Place 57108www.Radiance-DaySpa.com

WITH OUR SEASONAL SPA PROMOTIONS

Celebrate Fall

Give the perfect giftfrom Sioux Falls’ most exclusive day spa.

Gift cards now available online.

Mention this promotion and choose one of the following with any 50 or 80 minute spa service...• Complementary glass of wine

• Complementary pumpkin enzyme peel (with facial)

• Complementary aromatherapy blend (with massage)

• Complementary paraffin mask (with nail service)

But despite the ease of preventive screenings, many women still do not practice them consistently. They might be afraid of what the results will say or maybe they think they aren’t at risk for breast cancer. But the truth is if you are a woman, you are at risk. In fact, more than 75 percent of all women with breast cancer had no family history of breast cancer and were not at an increased risk. That is why it is so important to follow this four-step plan for preventive care.

Through breast self-awareness, clinical exams, risk assessments and mammograms, you and your physician will have a more accurate view of your breast health and be better prepared to catch abnormalities when there is the greatest possibility of successful treatment.

Step 1: Breast Self-AwarenessIf you don’t know what is normal for your breasts, how will you

know if something is abnormal? The American Cancer Society recommends women starting at age 20 begin familiarizing themselves with their breasts so they can notice changes more easily. This self-check should be done regularly at around the same time every month. You should be looking for changes that may include:• Development of a lump• A discharge other than breast milk• Swelling of the breast

Did You Know?9 out of 10 child safety seats are used incorrectly.

• Skin irritation or dimpling• Nipple abnormalities (pain, redness, scaliness, turning inward)

If you notice any of these changes, see your health care provider as soon as possible for an evaluation.

Step 2: Clinical ExaminationUsually done at your annual physical, a clinical breast

examination will allow a doctor or nurse trained in detecting problems with the breast a chance to evaluate you. This is a great time to ask questions or have concerns about your breast health addressed. Between the ages of 20 and 39, a clinical breast examination should be done every three years. Once you reach age 40, you should have one every year.

Step 3: Risk Assessment Every woman is different and has her own unique health

history that is constantly changing. You should speak to your primary care provider about your own personal risk factors, including family history to develop a risk assessment profile. If your risk appears to be elevated, you may be referred to a genetic counselor. This will help to identify your personal

risk factors and provide options for risk reduction. He or she may recommend genetic testing to help further define your risk for cancer. Genetic test results may have implications for family members and the genetic counselor will help to provide information for your family members.

Step 4: MammogramFor women 40 and older, a screening mammogram is the best

way to detect abnormalities in the breast. Since screening was initiated, mortality for breast cancer has decreased significantly. A mammogram is essentially a low-dose X-ray. It takes images of the breast, which the radiologist then examines for any possible abnormalities. This way, we can detect cancer or other problems before a lump is large enough to be felt.

Following this four-step preventive care plan is the best way to protect yourself against a breast cancer diagnosis. And while there is no proven method for preventing breast cancer, catching cancer early makes treatment much more manageable.

Talk to your doctor today about the four-step screening plan and what will work best for you.

From the golden mountains, to the historic downtown, to the picturesque scenery across the entire state it resides

in, Missoula, Montana, is a place of beauty and adventure. Appearing regularly in “Best Town” lists compiled by national magazines, Missoula has been called Best Town for Retirees, Best Mountain Town, Best Town for fishing, paddling, cycling, and the categories continue.

Considered to be the cultural capital of the Northern Rockies, Missoula is home to art galleries, photography studios, theaters, markets, restaurants, bistros, and more. The colorful riverfront is lined with walking paths, and each year there are several festivals, parades, and performances to provide entertainment for Missoula residents and visitors.

Surrounding the city of Missoula are permanently protected natural areas, with three major rivers meeting here including the Bitterroot, Clark Fork, and Blackfoot River.

Missoula is also surrounded by natural hot springs. Within an hour drive, you will find Jerry Johnson Hot Springs, which is a collection of small to large pools with rock edges and sandy bottoms, with the largest pool fitting up to 25 people. Eight miles away you will find Weir Creek Hot Springs, which is less popular and more secluded, overlooking the river and the Clearwater National Forest Canyon. For a more commercialized hot springs experience, spend a day at Lolo Hot Springs, one of Montana’s premier hotel destinations. With two 20-person hot springs mineral baths which are completely pure from the mountains and no chemicals added, you can swim in their outdoor pool or soak in the indoor pool.

its way through cool rock formations and thick forests, with plenty of sandy beaches for relaxing, taking a swim, and having a picnic. Two of the most scenic national parks in the country are located nearby, with Glacier National Park three hours north, and Yellowstone four hours southeast of Missoula.

An activity which is a local favorite is a short hike up Mount Sentinal, which takes you up 620 feet in less than half a mile. It gives you a gorgeous bird’s-eye view of the entire Missoula valley and surrounding mountains. The trail is called Mount Sentinel “M” Trail, with the “M” being a Missoula landmark since 1908, when Forestry Club members forged a zigzag trail up the mountain and students carried up stones to shape the symbol of the University of Montana, where the trailhead is located.

Missoula is also known as one of the landscapes that Lewis and Clark crossed during their expedition. You can follow in their footsteps along US Highway 12 to Lewiston, Idaho, with much of the landscape remaining unchanged. Lewis and Clark camped near present day Lolo in the area called Traveler’s Rest from September 9 through 12, 1805, and again on their return trip June 30 through July 3, 1806. They wrote about Lolo Hot Springs and their travels across the Bitterroot Mountains along the Lolo Trail. There are interpretive signs here about Lewis and Clark’s expedition and Nez Perce and Salish Tribes.

A walk through downtown Missoula will unveil several colorful and interesting buildings and attractions. The city has one of the state’s most extensive listing of properties and places on the National Register of Historic Places, with over 60 buildings listed. Some buildings are still painted with the original advertisements for businesses that are long gone. The Missoula County Courthouse, the Palace Hotel, the Garlington Building, and the Florence Hotel are just a few historic buildings located downtown.

The Wilma Building houses the Wilma Theatre, which was built in 1921 and is part of an eight-story complex that was the first steel-framed high-rise building in Missoula. Also located in the heart of downtown is Caras Park, which is Missoula’s town square and the site for many events, such as the International Wildlife Film Festival, Garden City BrewFest, Germanfest, Out to Lunch, and many more. Adjacent to Caras Park is A Carousel for

Teens and Zits: The Road to Clearer Skin Takes Time

Being a teenager brings many changes. The good: more freedom, a driver’s license and dating. And the bad: more homework, a

curfew and often a cruel rite of passage, acne. According to Heidi Furth, CNP, of Avera Medical Group

Dermatology Sioux Falls, there are four culprits responsible for those dreaded spots.

“The most common instigator is hormonal changes. That’s why teens and women struggle with acne,” said Furth. “It’s also caused by the skin type you inherited, how much oil your skin produces and bacteria.”

Acne affects each person differently. The spectrum ranges from small, pink or white bumps to blackheads to deep, painful cysts.

Even though acne peaks in teens ages 14 to 18, Furth sees patients as young as 8 all the way into their 50s. Like age, acne

doesn’t discriminate against gender either. “We see girls, boys, women and men. It doesn’t matter — they

all want clear skin,” said Furth. “Men tend to have more severe acne, but it usually shuts down between ages 18 and 22. Women’s acne, on the other hand, tends to be more persistent and flares up at the whim of her hormones.”

Oh, and if that’s not enough to deal with… Rapid growth during adolescence, starting or stopping hormone treatments, pregnancy and stress aggravate acne even further.

And, of course, picking and squeezing only cause redness, inflammation, scarring and more zits.

One question patients often ask is whether sugary or processed food worsens acne.

“There isn’t any solid research to sustain this theory,” said Furth.

After

Before

I have always struggled with my weight and have tried every diet ever invented. When the diets didn’t work, I tried the idea of “eat less and work out more.” When that didn’t work, I began to accept that I would just be overweight for the rest of my life. When I heard about Ideal Protein, I was VERY reluctant to give it a try. With some persuasion, I did and now I can say I have lost 85 lbs.

Not only have I lost the weight, but I have lost an amazing amount of inches all over my body. I have gone from a size 18/20 to a size 2/4. Since I have lost this weight, I feel fabulous. I have more energy, more self confidence and shopping, which I used to dread, became my favorite sport!

“However, I always tell my patients, ‘a good diet is good for the whole body, and a bad diet is bad for the whole body.’” In other words, eating more fruits and vegetables won’t hinder your pursuit for the perfect complexion.

For most, the quest for clearer skin begins in the health and beauty department of a local supermarket. Products that contain benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid are best for clearing mild acne. Stay away from exfoliators, or gritty scrubs, which are more irritating than helpful to a teen’s skin.

“People sometimes try things they find online, such as using coconut oil or creating masks using ingredients found in their kitchen,” said Furth. “They’re not necessary harmful or helpful.”

However, these methods don’t take into account your skin’s personal characteristics, such as sensitivity, oil production, pore size or even gender. If these options aren’t relieving the severity or frequency of outbreaks, don’t hesitate to visit a dermatologist for more individualized treatment.

“Acne isn’t just a cosmetic thing, it’s a medical issue,” said Furth. “It’s OK to take acne seriously. We want to see patients before scarring has occurred.”

Cystic and persistent acne usually responds better to prescription medication than over-the-counter options. Accutane®, which is actually a pill form of vitamin A, is used to treat deep, nodular acne. Another option is an oral antibiotic, which helps with inflamed, red acne.

Milder cases can be treated with prescribed topical antibiotics or

creams and gels, such as Epiduo® or Retin-A®. Because hormones often play into female acne, many young

women turn to hormone therapies to get to the root of the problem. It’s not unusual to try two or three brands before finding the right one.

“It’s easy to get frustrated when you aren’t seeing immediate results,” said Furth. “Whether you try over-the-counter products or medication, commit at least eight to 12 weeks before moving to another option.”

Achieving and maintaining clear skin isn’t easy. It takes patience, discipline and consistency. Talk to your primary care physician or dermatologist about how you or your teen can get over zits.

QuiCk TipS foR ClEARER, HEAlTHiER Skin1. Wash morning and night with a gentle cleanser.

2. Wash a third time if you are sweaty

from working out.

3. Change out of sweaty clothes ASAp.

4. Choose lighter makeup options, such as mineral

powder, if you have acne-prone skin.

5. Avoid touching your face during the day.

6. Don’t even think about picking or squeezing!

I stumbled upon this German tradition while looking for something new to do for my littlest’s first day of school. The

Schultüte which is lovingly referred to as the “sugar cone “ is a fun new way to celebrate the first day! In Germany they prepare a cone filled with school supplies, treats, candy and even toys for their first grade child. They then present the hand made surprise topped with tissue paper to their child on the first day of school. I delighted in the awe and excitement I could foresee by creating my very own Schultüte.

So amongst the piles of supplies already in my cart, I grabbed a few things I needed to make my very own. A couple poster boards, tissue paper, heavy tape, ribbon and lastly the goodies for inside. Now you could use wrapping paper to cover the cone or a poster or even the steadfast glitter, paint and stickers. While I was juggling the idea of what to put in the enormous cone of joy, it struck me that this could very well become a tradition for every school year. That way I wouldn’t leave out my three older children. So it was back to the school supply section to get more poster board.

Honestly, the idea of years down the road handing my eldest child a cone when she prepares for college brought me great joy. I knew then this would be a fantastically fun new way to celebrate the first day — be it preschool or twelfth grade.

Onward to craftiness galore. I am one of those sick and twisted people would loves crafting and I don’t mind being covered in glue, paint or glitter. Some of my closest friends turn green at the thought. Yet they too can take part in this tradition by ordering a pre-made Schultüte from kindercone or bribing

their artistic friend with coffee and chocolate.Once all the goodies have been selected and set aside, it’s

time to create the cone. Cut the poster board into the shape of a large triangle, glue on any decorations and let dry completely. Roll up to form the cone and firmly seal with the packing tape - regular tape just won’t hold it together. You could use duct tape not only to seal it but decorate it too - that’s a fun thought. I added extra tape on the inside just in case. Now add the tissue topper by using one of the 70 glue sticks you purchased to go around the opening and gently adhere the tissue. I folded mine in half and I ended up using three sheets. Carefully put in the supplies and surprises and close with ribbon. Volià! Perfect first day and back to school surprise!

I love this so much because the possibilities are endless. Not only can you make it for your tiny tot to your middle-schooler but why not make one for a friend entering law school? The fillings are also limitless from sweet treats, their favorite sparkly pens, a soft cuddle buddy to hide in their backpack, to gift cards for lunches. Heck, why not even let this terrific tradition morph into adult life and present this cone to family and friends when accepting a new position, getting a promotion or even entering the work force?

The Schultüte tradition reminds us of these pivotal firsts and how amazing they really are. Taking the time to gift such a gesture in this grand transition in life is a spectacular affirmation of love and friendship. The first day is often surrounded by clouds of the unknown that break away to new opportunities and a plethora of firsts to follow. Cheers!

Materials:

Small glass jar, red acrylic paint, silk leaf, nail file,

new pencils, a glue gun, and raffia

Instructions:

Pour the red acrylic paint into the glass jar and

rotate the jar until the paint covers the entire

inside, and the jar appears red. Turn the jar

upside down and let dry completely. Once dry, use

a nail file to file the rim of the jar in order to get

rid of any dried red paint creating jagged edges.

Take the raffia and twist it around the edge of

the jar’s rim. This will mimic the apples “stem”.

Using a glue gun, carefully glue a silk leaf to the

side of the raffia on the top of the rim. Let it dry

completely, then place the new pencils inside the

jar, which now looks like a red apple!

Our lives get so busy some days, that we forget to appreciate or

do the little things that make life better. Getting caught up in

your job, the problems of the world or the every day crisis that can

occur, get in the way of living. It can be overwhelming and at times very

unsatisfying. Sunday I got a small glimpse of when a subtle gesture

by people and their pets can make a big difference in someone’s day.

We went to visit my mother-in-law at Bethany Meadows in Brandon.

Usually we are in such a hurry that we leave Piper at home, but today

she decided that she should come along. It did not take long for her

to make friends with some of the residents. She knew her job was to

wiggle, wag and accept every pet she could.

The most important part of her day was to put a smile on the faces

of people who couldn’t have their pets any longer. She did not care if

their hands were a little shaky or if they needed a walker. I hope their

discomfort was a little less and that it brought back great memories of

their own pets.

I take care of a number of “Therapy Dogs”. I marvel at the effect they

have and the loving hearts of their human companions to do this work.

It takes time to pass the test to become a therapy pet. More importantly

it takes time for the people involved to travel and spend their free time

at hospitals, nursing homes and schools. But I believe they make a big

impact wherever they go.

Years ago a little blind pug puppy came for his new puppy exam. I

visited hard and long about whether they should keep Marley. It was

going to be tough having a dog without sight for 12-14 years. I did not

know how good of a companion he would be for them. Well, I eat crow a

lot on that opinion. He was a great pal that went to school and helped

kids with their reading! Evidently he is a much better listener than I

ever will be. He made a difference.

I take care of several therapy dogs that go to the Children’s Hospital

to visit. Those kids miss their own pets and just want somebody to love

them. These furry creatures are masters at providing a warm soft friend.

They do not care if there are catheters, machines or noise. They know

their job is to be there for the kids. Others visit nursing homes, the VA

hospital and Children’s Care Hospital as their service to the community.

If you are interested in participating in the Service Dog program,

you need to get started by reading their website and contacting the

area that interests you. They may already have enough service dogs in

their facility, so do not think that it is all your decision. Therapy pets are

normally certified by the Delta Society and Therapy Dogs International

of South Dakota.

If you have big heart, a little time and well behaved furry friend, it

may be time for you to provide one of “The Little Things” that makes a

big difference in our world.

Fortified Village

In 1922 pioneer archeologist Dr. W. H. over recorded the Brandon Village site, the only documented prehistoric fortified village in Minnehaha

County. It is located one-half mile west of this spot, on top of a narrow ridge 85 feet above the flood plain, on the west side of the Big Sioux River.

V-shaped erosional ravines provided protection from attack on three sides of this large village of 37 lodges. On the fourth side, villagers dug a fortification ditch as a barrier. Dr. over believed that for additional defense a palisade of logs also was erected. These people were of the Plains Village culture and were ancestors of the Missouri River Mandan.

In 1930-1940 Dr. over supervised extensive archeological excavations of the settlement. From evidence recovered, he concluded that the site was occupied for a short time between 1000 to 1200 A.D. and then was evacuated suddenly. His theory was that a strong warring tribe brought about the villagers’ departure.

The Brandon Village site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.
