In the 1950s Loraine and I discovered a great song sung by the late Nat King Cole. He had a beautiful voice and he knew how

to deliver a poignant message, which I am sharing with you.

No matter what your age or situation, please smile and remember that God loves you. And so do I. Remember the good times. Thank God for your blessings, your life, your past, your future – no matter how challenging it looks!

A Mess age f rom W i l l i a m V . D a y

Smile though your heart is aching.

SMILESmile though your heart is aching.Smile even though it’s breaking.When there are clouds in the sky, you’ll get byIf you smile through your fear and sorrow.Smile and maybe tomorrow…You’ll see the sun come shining through for you.

Light up your face with gladness.Hide every trace of sadness.Although a tear may be ever so near.That’s the time you must keep on trying.Smile, what’s the use of crying?You’ll find that life is still worthwhileIf you just smile.

That’s the time you must keep on trying.Smile, what’s the use of crying?You’ll find that life is still worthwhileIf you just smile.

FAITH & WORK 5

At the height of the COVID pandemic, memory care patients were confined to their rooms, unable to enjoy meals in the dining room, attend church

services in the chapel, visit with family. Friends were kept apart. The lack of socialization took its toll on many, especially at meals as appetites decreased.

Loyal staff worked diligently to counter the effects of isolation. Staff acted as a bridge between residents and families via Facetime, Google Duo and Zoom. When some patients were confused by the video screen interaction, staff personally conveyed families’ expressions of love, constantly reassuring them.

Staff also carried the group activities into the patient rooms — art projects, word games, puzzles. Often two staff members would match up friends in different rooms via iPads. Time consuming, but so very important.

Because of their dementia, some patients did not understand the COVID restrictions — the masks and social distancing, the confinement to rooms. They would wander out into the halls, and staff would gently lead them back for the fifth or sixth or seventh time. Again time consuming, but vital.

Patients watched church services on television. In addition, Rev. Dr. Richard Morledge, a resident of The Arbors, Valencia, would hold prayer groups each day for any staff or residents who cared to attend, always with masks and socially distancing in common areas.

Music had a calming effect on the patients. Recreation specialist Rachel G. strolled through the halls of the various memory care units playing the violin.

Today, COVID restrictions have lessened or been lifted. Masks are still worn in common areas and social distancing observed.

Patients eat their meals in the dining room, and appetites have increased. Interaction via activities and group therapy sessions provide welcome socialization. Families can visit.

The staff remain vigilant. The sheer determination, resilience and courage these men and women displayed during COVID at the risk of their own well being are phenomenal. COVID was no match for the St. Barnabas staff!

No matter what I cook, whether it be a hamburger or a filet, I make that dish

the very best I can!”

That’s Chef John Klein’s cooking style and the driving force at St. Barnabas Nursing Home. And that style and motivation are the same for the nursing home as it was with John’s career with high-end restaurants like the Grand Concourse on the southside of Pittsburgh and Hyde Park Prime Steakhouse on Pittsburgh’s North Shore.

Except for a brief stint working at J & L mill, John has been cooking

for a living for more than 41years — 15 years as executive chef at the Grand Concourse after 8 years as their sous chef and five years as executive sous chef at Hyde Park as well as a number of years at various line staff positions. John joined St. Barnabas in November, 2016 as chef/supervisor.

John’s dedication to creative, quality dining regardless of the venue is enhanced by a caring, personal touch.

Recently the daughter of a nursing home patient had called St. Barnabas from her home in North Carolina about her mother’s love of pierogies.

The daughter was unable to find a Pittsburgh restaurant that would deliver pierogies to her mother. John asked for the mother’s name and room number and that night her mother had pierogies for dinner. The daughter was so pleased saying, “It’s the little things that matter.”

“I was happy to do it,” John said. “Food is not a little thing to our residents. It’s one of the most important parts of their day.”

John is proud of several of the changes he has made at the nursing home including fine dining occasions, now limited by

COVID restrictions, an expanded, more adventurous menu and a number of Pittsburgh favorites, such as pierogies, now on the menu every third Friday.

John does not do the cooking at home. His wife, Terri, an excellent, creative cook herself, is the Klein Family Chef. And John’s favorite dish is Terri’s breaded pork chops. The Kleins have a blended family: two sons, Sean and Justin, and daughter, Jessica.

For fun John and Terri enjoy boating with friends. A boating enthusiast since age 19, John is a board member of the Oakmont Yacht Club.

John is pleased to share a popular summer grilling recipe: Grilled Mahi Mahi with Fresh Mango Salsa. But you have to promise to make it “the very best you can.”

M any smokers dismiss the devastating effects of secondhand smoke. They are in denial about what their smoking habit is doing to

their children and their non-smoking friends. The U.S. Surgeon General, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization have the data to prove them wrong.

• World wide, secondhand smoke kills more than 600,000 people each year, 50,000 in the United States.

• Babies exposed to secondhand smoke can die of SIDS – Sudden Death Syndrome.

• Babies and children experience respiratory and ear infections as well as severe asthma attacks due to secondhand smoke.

• Non-smokers of all ages can be victims of lung cancer, heart disease and stroke because of secondhand smoke.

Don’t let your family become a secondhand smoke statistic.

Join the St. Barnabas Medical Center’s Freedom from Tobacco program. A plan designed to meet your needs will be developed ranging from total nicotine abstinence to pharmaceutical therapy, nicotine replacement or a combination of all three. Call 724-443-7231.

IT’S DEADLY!Secondhand Smoke is Not a Myth

SMOKING IS NOT COOL!

I have been clean for 23 years — of cigarette smoking. I was 15 when I smoked my first cigarette. My favorite cousin smoked and I

thought it was so cool. At first it was just two or three a day, but by the time I was 24, I was up to a pack a day — 20 — Camels, unfiltered.

It was then I decided to quit. I hated the smoky smell of my clothes, my hair. I tried cold turkey — that didn’t work. Then I tried nicotine gum — no luck. It tasted awful. Finally, at age 27, I quit. It took the nicotine patch and a complete lifestyle change for me to succeed. I was diagnosed with a non-related syndrome and placed on medication that didn’t mix well with alcohol. So, no more clubbing or cocktails that are usually associated with smoking.

My advice to young smokers — QUIT NOW! It’s a smelly, expensive habit that is very hard to break. And it’s not cool.

We would like to hear your smoking story. Send to: Faith & Work 5850 Meridian Rd. Gibsonia, PA, 15044Please help us break our nation’s smoking habits!

SMOKING ADDICTIONStop the Guilt, Find a Solution

by World Renowned Neurosurgeon, Triathlete, Nutrition and Brain Health Expert Joseph C. Maroon, MD, FACS and Jeff Bost PAC

what is new to science is how the molecules found in addictive substances act and exert such powerful hold on us.

Nicotine affects the brain by acting on a specific type of receptor known as the nicotinic receptor. Nicotinic receptors cause an increased release of the neu-rotransmitter dopamine, also known as the pleasure messenger. Similarly, sugar, opioids, alcohol and stimulants cause the release of specific neurotransmitters the brain craves. The power of these addictive molecules can overwhelm our rational brain, causing physical and emotional addiction. In essence, we can’t live without them.

ST. BARNABAS CAN HELP

St. Barnabas Health System is pleased to offer those addicted to nicotine a judgment-free smoke cessation program. They have developed a specialized 8-session program that could include monthly visits, medication that targets neurotransmitters, free phone apps and counseling. The success rate of this type of program ranges from 55 percent to greater than 80 percent!

As a physician and surgeon, I have seen the devastating effects of tobacco on the human body and witnessed the power of addiction. With St. Barnabas’ help you can again enjoy life without the burden of addiction. Call today to learn more. Call St. Barnabas Medical Center 724-443-7231.

Dr. Joseph Maroon partners with St. Barnabas Health System and

its Memory Care program.

I have had the privilege of working beside some of the top surgeons in the country right here in

Pittsburgh. One was a cardio- thoracic surgeon whose operating room was next to mine. We met in the surgeon’s lounge and at the OR central scrub sink. He was a heavy smoker and, despite the hospital’s ban on smoking, continued to smoke in the lounge. One day I asked him to stop. His face turned red with anger and he stormed out. It was many months before he would even say hello to me.

I have often thought about this episode and how a surgeon, who daily saw the horrid effects of smoking on the human vascular system and lungs, could be so addicted that his rational brain continued to drive him to smoke. Several years later I learned the truth about addiction. It all leads back to brain chemistry, specific neurotransmitters, and how the chemicals in tobacco, certain food, opioids and other addictive substances hijack the brain.

NICOTINE HIJACKS THE BRAIN PLEASURE CENTER

As a neurosurgeon I certainly know about neurotransmitters – the molecules that allow commu-nication between nerve cells. But

Celebrating Our Everyday Hero!

Page 11: St. Barnabas: BEAUTY

St. Barnabas salutes 100-year-old Woodlands resident Betty Conn for a lifetime of

service to her community, her church and her country.

Born and raised in Masontown, PA, near Uniontown, Betty was the oldest of Josephine and Arleigh Conn’s three children: Betty, Joseph “Joe” and Arlene. Brother Joe was drafted into the Army Air Corps in the Spring of 1943 when Betty was a senior at Indiana State Teacher’s College. The family was seeing Joe off when Betty told her parents if Joe had to go into service, then why shouldn’t she. Her father was concerned that she would never use her education, but Betty promised him that after the war she would become a teacher – a promise she kept.

So Betty became a Marine, earning the rank of Sergeant by the time she was discharged. Betty’s teaching career actually started in the Marines. Her wartime assignment — aerial gunner instructor teaching fighter pilots how to shoot wing guns on F4U Corsairs.

“Of course, they had to teach me first,” Betty said. “The front portion of a Corsair was set up before a white screen. Pilots would slide into their seats and fire their guns at a simulated Japanese Zero. It was like a Disney ride. They were able to dive, climb and bank while flying and firing their guns.”

“I like to think,” she added with a grin, “that we won the war because I was a good teacher.”

Betty taught 5th grade in Uniontown and then 8th grade social studies. She went on to earn a Master’s degree in Supervision from West Virginia University on the GI Bill. The last 20 years of her career she supervised reading in the North Allegheny School System, retiring in 1981. While teaching Betty was very active in her church’s Bible studies, the young people’s program and Sunday School.

Betty researched retirement communities before choosing The Woodlands. She was among the first Woodlands residents. That was in 2000 and Betty is now the oldest resident both in age and in residency.

During her first 15 years at The Woodlands Betty participated in all the activities and every get-together and party. She served on the Steering Committee, chaired the Welcoming Committee and hosted an annual Christmas party.

“Now, at 100, I’ve slowed up a bit. Mostly I eat and sleep,” Betty confided with a smile, “The last things I will give up are the beauty shop and church.”

Celebrating Our Everyday Hero!

Betty says coming to St. Barnabas was the best decision she has ever made. Her carriage home is near the old P&LE train tracks. She loves the sound of the trains.

“The people in The Woodlands are wonderful.” Betty said. “We are just like a family. It’s stress-free living.”

Betty is known for her quiet sense of humor. Shortly after her 100th birthday, Jan. 14, 2021, Betty wrote to the insurance company that handles medical insurance for Pennsylvania teachers:

Gentlemen, I am 100 years old and have never been hospitalized. I have never taken any medications, not even aspirin. But I do eat a pound and a half of dark chocolate squares from Aldi’s every month. I am suggesting that you cover the monthly cost of these chocolates as a part of preventive medical insurance.”

The insurance company did not act upon Betty’s request, just acknowledged her handwritten note with a form letter.

Marine Sergeant Betty smiled and ate another chocolate.

F4U Corsair’s wing guns were manned by the fighter pilots in WWII. Marine Sgt. Betty Conn was their aerial gunner instructor.

Sitting in a wheelchair, even in summer, can be chilling. Patients cannot easily walk off that chill or relieve the stiffness. The best remedy?

A lap robe or a quilt tucked across the lap and around the legs…providing warmth, a sense of security, love.

St. Barnabas is asking you to donate a lap robe or quilt for these patients. Homemade robes or quilts would be wonderful, whether they are knitted, crocheted or stitched. But the store-bought ones would be just as welcome, soft and fleecy. Any color, any design. For men and women.

The lap robes can be dropped off at St. Barnabas Nursing Home in Gibsonia, 5827 Meridian Rd., or at these living assistance facilities: Washington Place, 5847 Meridian Rd., Gibsonia; The Arbors, Valencia, 85 Charity Place, Valencia; The Arbors III, 6005 Valencia Rd, Gibsonia; and Beaver Meadows, 5130 Tuscarawas Rd., Beaver.
