So often I’ll receive a call from cli-ents concerned about a sudden behav-ioral change in a memory-impaired resident. And, all too often the cause is an introduction of new medication or a change in the dosage of an existing one. Surprisingly, the fi rst interpretation of the behavioral change is that the “de-mentia has advanced.” Let me stress for the record that the progressive stages of dementia do not normally advance suddenly. Progres-sion occurs gradually over time. So, if you notice a sudden behavioral change in a resident or a loved one, it would be wise to consider all possible contribut-ing factors and not conclude the worst-case scenario – a sudden progression of the disease. Just such an instance happened re-cently with a man I will call Arthur, who is in the beginning stages of Alz-heimer’s. His situation unfolded like this: His wonderful wife, Alice, regu-larly returns to her home country, in Europe, for a few weeks to see her fam-

ily while Arthur stays home. This year, Arthur was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. Alice had a decision to make, should she take her trip or stay home with Arthur? Arthur and Alice have a son who lives with them and he has been a great team member. Arthur is still working part time and attending church every week. Their daughter lives local and stops in whenever she is needed. I encouraged Alice to take the trip, knowing that this might be her last opportunity to go home for quite some time. So, Alice went to Europe and when she returned, Arthur had changed a great deal. He was sleeping all the time, had lost about fi ve pounds, was not interested in doing anything (almost appeared depressed), and seemed disinterested in seeing his “dear ole Alice.” What happened?! Alice called the doctor, who said, “I think the major change of your going away pushed him into the next stage of the disease.” What a blow! Alice’s guilt quotient went through the roof. She immediately re-gretted her visit home and felt terrible

that she chose to do what she needed to do for herself instead of staying home and caring for her husband. I advised Alice that I didn’t think her being gone for a few weeks was the like-ly cause of Arthur’s lapse in behavior. It seemed to me that maybe there was more going on. I suggested that maybe Arthur had become a bit depressed be-cause he missed her and within a few days, he might be better. I knew that they had been adjusting his medication before she left and asked if there were any changes made. I suggested she ask the doctors if any of the medications could have caused these changes in Ar-thur. As it turned out, Arthur had started a new medication just days before Al-ice went away. As soon as he stopped taking this medication, Arthur quickly reverted to his lovable self. There are a few lessons in this event that are worth noting. • The fi rst is twofold. If possible, avoid starting a new medication while the primary care partner is absent for an extended period of time. Also, expect

“Washington Capitol Security”-by Bob Perry

There is a basic failure of the security of our Capitol security in Washington, D.C. as evidenced in the gyrocopter landing on the Capitol lawn undetect-ed. A postal worker by the name of Doug Hughes from Florida found a unique way to deliver a message to Washing-ton legislators unimpeded. The lack of adequate coverage to protect against in-truders by the way of the air makes one wonder who is in charge of protecting our federal government against attack. One would think that the pattern of testing any system, being a computer system or any other system, imagination of possible attacks needs to be exten-sive and comprehensive. This takes the mind that has the analytical capability and experience to make considerations that are ‘out of the box’ in concept. In referencing a computer system, the ex-tensive testing that is conducted prior to the launch of the system needs to be extensive to ensure its legitimacy. One example of a catastrophic failure due to the lack of needed testing we only have to be reminded of the ACA (Affordable

Care Act) rollout that was a disaster. Not only is there a need to conduct testing prior to the release but testing must continue as long as the system ex-ists. The number one job of the lead-ership of this exceptional country is to protect it from attacks from those who would seek its destruction, both from without as well as from within. Dare we say feckless in the protection of the symbols of our government? Now that this simple breach has been accomplished it is predictable other at-tempts are forthcoming? How are we doing in protecting undesirables com-ing across the southern border? All of us that have a computer or device that is subject to a hack attack take meas-ures created by professionals that offer protection to secure personal informa-tion. The government should think about hiring professionals to create security systems that are fully tested, with re-quirements for continual testing, and putting into place systems that leave no stone unturned in protecting our excep-tional country and its people.

GGB Elementary School once again was the focus for the photos that high-light this week’s edition of the Bradford Journal. We photographed all of the sec-ond grade students in Loretta Gabrielle’s classroom where the students were busy learning about the difference between AM and PM when telling time, and about half of the students in the “teaming” second grade classrooms of Mrs. Laurie McGee and Mrs. Mary Gracey-Dalton where the students were reviewing the three states of matter. In addition, we stopped at the Wa-terford Lab, which to some may be con-sidered a computer lab (which it is), and photographed some of Mrs. Katie Dent’s fi rst grade students who were taking ad-vantage of the language arts portion of the Waterford Learning System computer ap-plication……..Those who wish to sign up and take part in this year’s Barstool Open, to be held Saturday, April 25th should do so on the morning of the event at the sponsoring bar or club well before the kick-off time of 12:00 noon. There are nineteen sponsoring locations including the Bradford American Legion Club Post #108, the Bradford VFW Club Post #212, JJ’s Saloon, and the New Keystone……..It’s time to mark your calendars for the big East Bradford event, Stinkfest 2015 scheduled to take place rain or shine, on Saturday, May 2nd from 11:00 AM to 6:00PM……..We’d like to thank “Citi-zens for Paul Berg for Mayor Commit-tee” for posting the nearly one-hour long video of last week’s council session to the Bradford Journal facebook site. In a rare meeting where council members were actually listening and responding in good faith with their constituents, in-dividual members of the community and businessmen aired their complaints about the new hidden tax, (water run-off fees), vandalism, and other points of irritation for them……..It is rumored that many representatives in the Assembly are pushing for an increase in the minimum wage from approximately $7.00 to ap-proximately $10.00. At fi rst thought, if this were true, we consider that the poli-ticians are fi nally responding to the needs of its citizens. What a whopping increase! And we’re sure to see that after due con-sideration, our local representatives will take the credit for helping regular work-ing people. On second thought, howev-er, it could just be that their aim is to rid themselves of many of the large numbers of “poor people” (people classifi ed by the Feds as below the poverty level) who claim entitlement monies from the State. The increase in wages would push many above the poverty level, lowering entitle-ments, saving money for the State, and thereby helping it to balance the budget. Unfortunately, if there were such an in-crease, it would be on the backs of our struggling industry and businesses, large and small alike.

Known to some as the computer room or lab, this room contains enough computers for a fairly large classroom full of students, and is used to augment regular classroom work in math and reading arts subjects. Trinity is enjoying a book entitled, Andy’s Adventure.

BUSINESS & PERSONAL FINANCESAffording Fido: A Cost Checklist For A New Pet

-by Jason Alderman Premium food, state-of-the-art vet-erinary care and creature comforts most humans would envy are now a regular part of life for many American pets. That’s why prospective pet owners should consider fi nancial planning be-fore bringing home a dog, cat or other breed of animal. For those considering purchasing or adopting a pet, do thorough research fi rst about what owning that animal will cost. The wide range of products, services and advanced medical options for American pets have pushed U.S. pet industry expenditures to almost $60 bil-lion in 2014, nearly double the amount in 2004. With pet ownership tripling since the 1970s according to The Hu-mane Society of the United States, it is no surprise that advanced pet products and services at high price points are making it very easy for many pet own-ers to overspend. Prospective pet owners should begin their research with an idea of fi rst-year costs. The ASPCA (https://www.aspca.org) publishes an annual estimate for a variety of pets. Purchase and adoption costs may vary based on breed, so read as much as you can about a specifi c pet choice. Fortunately, virtually every kind of pet has an online presence, in-cluding sites for adoption and rescue. It’s particularly important to research the pet’s behavioral, care and health history and it might also be worthwhile to fi nd a veterinarian who can offer ad-ditional insight about home and medi-cal care. Keep in mind that average pet costs, not counting additional spending for toys, treats or non-routine veterinary care, can be daunting. For example, the ASPCA currently estimates that a large dog may cost roughly $1,800 in his or her fi rst year and $780 a year afterward. That doesn’t include potential bills for major illness or accident care that might run into the thousands. If that dog lives eight to 10 years, that means spend-ing a minimum of between $7,260 and $8,820 over a lifetime. Many ex-perts and pet owners are still debating whether it makes sense to buy pet in-surance, (http://www.practicalmoney-skills.com/petinsurance) and that is an option worth researching as well before a pet is purchased or adopted. Many homeowners and renters should also check with their insurers for potential pet restrictions that may raise their premiums or risk voiding their coverage. In 2013, the Insurance Infor-mation Institute claimed that one-third of all homeowners insurance liability claims came from dog bites alone. Cer-

tain types of breeds may be considered higher-risk among some insurers, so before a pet purchase or adoption, pro-spective pet owners should check their home or rental policies to see how the animal will affect the pricing or avail-ability of coverage. Finally, certain kinds of pet owner-ship situations may call for estate plan-ning. Some pet breeds – birds and tor-toises among them – may live well in excess of 20 years. If a pet owner be-comes disabled or dies, pets at any age may have an uncertain future if there’s no plan in place for guardianship, care

and ongoing fi nancial support. Estate planners have recognized pet trusts as a potential legal solution for this pur-pose. Pet owners of advanced age, with disabling illness or living alone might consider leaving such specifi c instruc-tions for their animals in their will or advance directives. Bottom line: With the potential costs of veterinary and other forms of care, pet ownership requires its own form of fi nancial planning. It’s important to do thorough research on costs related to specifi c species and breeds before you buy or adopt.

that medication changes will likely re-sult in behavioral changes. • Second, a change in primary care partner should not be done abruptly. In-stead, the new care partner should be merged into the environment slowly while the more familiar care partner is still a part of the scene. Once the loved one appears to be at ease with the new care partner, the more familiar care partner can exit the environment. • Third lesson – we, as profession-als, need to be careful when offering opinions and reasons for changes in be-havior, especially if the care partner’s competency is called into question. When a behavioral change does oc-cur, don’t panic. Instead, go through a checklist of what might be the cause. Here is a checklist I use in such in-stances and have found to be very help-ful: 1) Has there been any recent change in medication or dosage? 2) Have there been any changes to the environment? 3) Might this person have a urinary tract infection? 4) Has the daily routine been altered? 5) Has there been a change in care partners? 6) Have there been new demands

placed on the person? We have just begun a new year. This is a perfect time to improve your care-giving techniques in order to have more productive interaction with your loved one or a resident who is under your care. While occasional and erratic behav-ior is often a symptom of dementia, we should always investigate to determine if an environmental change is causing or contributing to the behavior.

ON THE HEALTHY SIDECancer Survivors:

Ask Your Health Care Provider For A

‘Survivorship Care Plan’

(NAPSI)—More than 14 million Americans living today have had can-cer. Often called “survivors,” indi-viduals with a history of cancer often experience great relief and possess a new lease on life, having successfully faced a serious disease. Survivors may also encounter anxiety, fearing re-oc-currence or complications from treat-ment. During active treatment, people with cancer are often actively engaged in their cancer care and enjoy a sense of support and security from the regular interactions they have with their oncol-ogy team. When treatment ends, how-ever, the biggest question for cancer survivors is often “What should I do now?” The American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), the world’s lead-ing professional organization repre-senting physicians who care for people with cancer, believes it is critically im-portant for cancer survivors to receive proper follow-up care and ongoing health care support. ASCO has devel-oped the “Survivorship Care Plan,” a new tool for survivors and health care professionals to discuss and record the details of the cancer diagnosis, the treatments received, possible late com-plications or side effects of treatments, the need for future checkups and cancer tests, and suggestions for maintaining and improving survivors’ health. “At the end of their treatment, pa-tients with cancer should expect to re-ceive a survivorship care plan, but if they don’t get one, they should ask for one from their doctor or nurse,” said Deborah K. Mayer, Ph.D., RN, chair of the ASCO Survivorship Care Plan

A: There are many forms of yoga, and any effects on health likely vary with the type and amount. Some forms of yoga place more emphasis on physical postures and stretching or fl exibility, others on breathing or meditation. Other forms of yoga include faster-moving series of movements.Studies on yoga and its healthy benefi ts are often small short-term, and without clear comparison groups, so for now conclusions are tentative, but early research is promis-ing. A recent review of multiple studies found some evidence that yoga compared to do-ing no exercise may help reduce blood pressure and blood triglyceride levels and pos-sibly LDL cholesterol. Limited research ties continued yoga practice to lower markers of infl ammation and that it may help improve low-back pain, especially after several months. Some research also suggests yoga has potential to improve quality of life and de-crease the fatigue experienced by cancer survivors, at least after several months of yoga practice. If you are considering trying yoga, experts advise starting with guidance of a well-trained instructor and asking about how the form of yoga practiced matches the benefi ts you seek. If you have any health problems, talk with your healthcare provider before starting more than a basic breathing and meditation practice. Women who are pregnant and people with certain medical conditions, such as high blood pressure, glaucoma (a condition involving fl uid pressure within the eye that may lead to blindness), and sci-atica (pain, weakness, numbing, or tingling that may extend from the lower back to the calf or foot), should modify or avoid some yoga poses.

(NU) - By gaining a better un-derstanding of the allergies causedby pets, you may be able to find ahealthier coexistence with yourfurry friend.

According to The Humane So-ciety, 62 percent of Americanhouseholds have at least one pet.Yet, an estimated 31 million Amer-icans are allergic to animals, in-cluding up to 30 percent of thosewho have asthma. Here’s what youshould know about pet allergies:

Myth 1: It’s only pet hair thatcauses allergies to flare up.

Not true. Pet hair is a nuisanceand causes allergies, as it containssaliva or other pet proteins. Aller-gic reactions to pets are actuallycaused by pet proteins containedin pet dander, such as microscop-ic skin flakes, saliva and urine.Overactive immune systems inthose with allergies attack theseotherwise harmless substances.

Myth 2: Continuous expo-sure to animals will eventuallydesensitize you to them.

Not only is this not true, but insome cases the opposite is true. Ifyou have a confirmed allergy to an-imals, it usually will not get betterthrough increasing exposure. Infact, it may get worse.

Myth 3: With the right petbreed, allergy problems go away.

Not true. All cat or dog breedsproduce dander. However, somebreeds are believed to be better forallergy sufferers than other breeds.Typically the best breeds are thosethat shed the least fur and/or are themost frequently bathed. Also,smaller dogs produce less salivathan do bigger dogs.

Myth 4: Small animals arenot a problem for allergies.

Wrong. Hamsters, guinea

pigs, birds and other warm-blood-ed mammals can also trigger asth-ma and allergies in people with al-lergies to animal dander,according to the U.S. Environ-mental Protection Agency.

Myth 5: Outside the home,you shouldn’t have pet allergies.

Not necessarily. Because oftheir microscopic size and jaggedshape, pet allergens easily stick toclothing and other fabrics and arecarried to other locations. Animaldander -- in sufficient levels tocause allergies -- can be found inmany public places such as theworkplace, classrooms and hospi-tals, according to the AmericanLung Association.

Myth 6: An air purifier willhelp with pet allergies.

It depends on the air purifier.Only a high-performance air puri-fier can help. Some allergy suffer-ers report that small, low-qualityair cleaners make little or no dif-ference at all. However, many al-lergy sufferers report that theirIQAir air purifier, in combinationwith improved cleaning methods,has reduced or completely elimi-nated their allergic reactions to petsin their homes.

Can a Fitness & Wellness Regimen Empower Women?Celebrity Trainer Explains 3 Reasons Why It Can

From an early age, women have foisted on them images of the “ideal” female body, and self-esteem can plum-met when they fail to measure up. But celebrity trainer Holly Perkins says it’s time women stop buying into those societal pressures. “There’s this perception that all women need to look like perfect run-way models,” says Perkins. “They can feel the anxiety building when they are trying to meet someone else’s expec-tations. That’s when the effort to lose weight or get fi t can add to the stresses of life instead of relieving them.” Certainly, women should want to improve their health, get fi t and look gorgeous all at the same time, says Per-kins, who recently released a home-ex-ercise system designed specifi cally for women called baladea (www.baladea.com), with regimens she developed to fuse fi tness and wellness exercises. But getting in shape needs to be something women want for them-selves, and not an effort to mimic some airbrushed image on a magazine cover at the supermarket, she says. Perkins realized several years ago that her clients met their weight-loss goals faster when she created programs that addressed both their fi tness and wellness needs at the same time. They also felt happier about them-selves. So she incorporated yoga and other stress-relieving and relaxation techniques into the baladea program. Perkins offers three reasons why the right fi tness and wellness regimen can empower women and emancipate them from society’s image pressures: • Because looking good makes you feel good. That’s especially true when you’re trying to look good to please yourself and not others, Perkins says. “There’s this sense of empowerment

when you exercise, eat a healthier diet and lose weight because it’s what you want and not because of peer pressure or societal pressures,” she says. Self-esteem rises when you improve your image on your terms, she says, and as a result “looking gorgeous never felt better.” • Because the science says so. Re-search shows that stress can keep you from losing weight and might even cause you to add pounds. Even if you eat well and exercise, an excessive amount of stress can counteract all your efforts. That’s why meshing fi tness and wellness works so well, Perkins says. “Stress reduction and relaxation can signifi cantly improve weight loss,” she says. “That allows you to look and feel your absolute best.” • Because while improving your look, you also become healthier. You will feel amazing not just because of elevated self-esteem, but because your body really is functioning better be-cause of the diet and exercise, Perkins says. Your energy level will rise and “you will feel ready for anything,” she says. “You can look awesome and you can feel happy at the same time,” Perkins says. “It’s all about letting your true

self shine.” About Holly Perkins: Holly Perkins is a national fi tness expert and devel-oper of baladea (www.baladea.com), a customizable fi tness and wellness sys-tem for women. She holds a bachelor’s degree in Exercise Physiology and is a Certifi ed Strength and Condition-ing Specialist (CSCS), one of the most prestigious certifi cations in the indus-try. She believes that making fi tness a fun lifestyle is the best way to achieve true change. As one of the nation’s lead-ing weight-loss experts and a highly sought-after celebrity trainer, she has been featured in numerous magazines, newspapers and on national TV shows.

FAMILY FEATURES

From impromptu dinners

with pals to celebrating

special events with family,

warm weather adventures

await in your own back -

yard. Before you invite the gang over

to enjoy cocktails or a cookout, make

sure your outdoor spaces give the right

impression for enjoying those carefree

summer moments.

Successful summer hosts know the

easiest way to impress guests is to make

your outdoor area as comfortable and

charming as the interior of your home.

First, focus on your yard. Nothing brings

out the goodness of summer entertaining

like a backdrop of fresh green grass and

a tidy, land scaped lawn. To achieve max -

imum summer entertainment, create

a yard that welcomes a spontaneous

game of bocce, bag toss or even fun

with a sprinkler.

Next, bring the luxury of your living

room to the great outdoors. Simple

touches, like throw pillows, blankets

and candles add comfort and design to

outdoor areas. Whether the fare is casual

or formal, a centerpiece of freshly cut

flowers from the garden brings bright

pops of color to your event. Check out

these ideas to make your next gathering

one to remember.

Enjoy a Mosquito-Free SummerFeed mosquitoes something they’ll die for. First-of-its-kindTerminix AllClear Mosquito Bait & Kill mimics a mosquito’snatural food source — plant sugar — to bait, kill and collapsepopulations by more than 90 percent in just two to three weeks. As temperatures rise, spray on non-flowering foliage or non-poroussurfaces throughout the yard. Mosquitoes can’t resist bait. Afterfeeding, they stop biting and will soon die. Even better — thisinnovative formula is non-toxic and safe for people, pets and theenvironment. For more information, visit www.baitandkill.com.
