Good morning...first, kudos to Ellen Posner for hosting a great poetry fest last night at Brion's Grille. Co-sponsored by George Mason University, this event brought different people from different backgrounds, together to share their work. Serotonin-Plus was proud to be a sponsor of this wonderful event. It is humbling for me to see the talent that people have and how their words can move people.
Second, I would encourage all of you to read the comment to the blog I wrote yesterday. A very insightful, reality-based commentary that will male you step back and think lots. I so appreciate your comments to what I write and I encourage all of you to become engaged in the discussion.
We gave a free program (1200 dollar value) as a door prize last night. The person who won thios was not overweight but the gift was transferrable. She will present this to a person i her life she cares about to help them become healthier. As you start planning holiday gifts, I encourage you all to think of non-caloric gifts as a way of saying "i care about you." Cookies, cakes and other damaging food sources will hurt the very people you love if they have a weight problem. Give life...not hurt.

I definitely have a comment on yesterdays blog. I was called out of town early last Sunday for my mother who was admitted into ICU. She had not gotten early treatment for a UTI which set into motion a decline in her health. She has been living along (at 86) and has not been taking good care of herself. Not getting the right nutrition and trying to treat some of her medical problems herself. With several days in the hospital she is now in a rehab center and we don't know what the next step is from here. We are considering assisted living and have been searching out options. Since I am the only child left, I feel a great responsibilty and some guilt that I can't be here to keep an eye on her. Right now I'm taking one day at a time and trying to focus on keeping myself healthy to be able to cope. Mom is generally in good health and has the possiblity to live to be 100 with good care. Let's hope the health system here in Massachusetts can support our elderly to live long happy lives to the end.
