Orlando In-Home Senior Care Agency: Holiday Opportunities to Reminisce, Part I

Holidays offer ample opportunities for families to recall and reminisce about past Thanksgivings, family gatherings and shopping trips made with children and elderly loved ones. Even before November begins, some grandparents have already apportioned time, effort, and money in setting goals and making holiday plans for dinners, in addition to prepping homes for family visitors. Making plans and setting goals “involves processing information filled with personal meaning – knowledge about past experiences, motivations, plans and social context,” says Nathan Spreng in a recent Science Daily article, “Reminiscing can help boost mental performance.” Nathan Spreng, a neuroscientist from Cornell University led a study that shows how reminiscing boosts mental performance in some individuals.

The opportunity to set holiday goals and plan activities gives seniors the occasion to reactivate cognitive skills. Acknowledging the importance of a senior’s past and treasured experiences provides caregivers and family members the opportunity to validate what is important in a senior’s life. What may seem insignificant may be a cherished memory later in life; a song heard for the first time, or the aroma of grandmother’s turkey baking in the oven may provide enduring memories for older seniors.

Just as some family members may wander into the kitchen to help prepare Thanksgiving dinner, others may want to find time to chat with old and young about recent experiences and personal family updates. Family football fans may assemble to watch the latest college football games during a long Thanksgiving holiday.

 I treasure the funny moments I had sitting next to my grandfather while watching college football over Thanksgiving break. In fact, I remember laughing at his reaction every time someone fumbled or made a touchdown. He probably wondered why I was laughing; it was the reactions, his sighing and the motions made by his enormous hands that made me laugh. A set of piercing hawkish blue eyes would always roll in my direction after each of my untimely laughs.

We recognize Thanksgiving holidays as a time to celebrate older and newer traditions. Holidays offer an excellent opportunity for family caregivers to help older loved ones participate in organizing and planning activities.

 If you are planning to spend some extra time assisting elderly grandparents or aging parents preparing for the holidays, take the time to accommodate their needs and their wishes. When helping someone, consider this golden rule, "It is not about us, when giving of our time, but about others."

Senior Helpers of Orlando provides home health care for seniors and older adults living in Orange, Osceola and Seminole counties. Call us to find out about our services at 407-628-4357 or feel free to visit our website.

Editorial: A time to help children, elderly at Christmas

Next week Americans will gather for Thanksgiving. Friends and families will enjoy food, fellowship and football. It's also the kickoff for the Christmas shopping season.
Black Friday often brings long lines, with shoppers getting in a festive spirit leading up to Christmas.
But we know there are people who are struggling. Those who face financial challenges and barely make ends meet. Some parents cannot afford presents for youngsters, and there are elderly people who can barely afford basic necessities.
This is where the Cape Girardeau Jaycees and the Southeast Missourian come in.
Each year we partner through Toybox and Christmas for the Elderly.
Toybox is a program whereby individuals can donate monetarily or through gifts for children of all ages. In its 40th year, Toybox helped more than 1,000 children receive a gift last Christmas. Families seeking support can go to the Salvation Army in Cape Girardeau to complete an application.
Christmas for the Elderly has been around for 30 years. Last year, 42 seniors were helped, with assistance coming in the form of supplies, gift cards and specific needs.
Last year there was someone who needed a bed. A donor met this need. Another senior needed help with a pharmacy bill, and still another needed eye surgery.
The generosity of this community is inspiring, and we look forward to seeing this same generous spirit this Christmas season.
Those who would like to donate to Christmas for the Elderly or Toybox may do so through Dec. 18. Christmas for the Elderly donations may be brought to the Southeast Missourian, 301 Broadway, or mailed to P.O. Box 4, Cape Girardeau, MO 63701.
Kim's Toybox Run also will be held on Nov. 30 before the downtown Cape Girardeau Christmas parade. It begins at 4:55 p.m. at the West End Boulevard and Broadway intersection. The registration fee benefits Toybox, and toy donations also will be accepted.
Thank you for your support of Toybox and Christmas for the Elderly.

Meet The Soft Exosuit That Might Help The Elderly Walk Again

Exoskeletons have, to this point, largely been theoretical in how they work. We’ve been working on them since the ’60s, but until now they’ve essentially been powered scaffolds you strap yourself into. The soft exosuit the military is building, though, is another beast altogether.

Designed partially by Harvard’s Wyss Institute, the basic concept of the suit is to layer muscles over your muscles. Built out of specialty fabrics, it will, in theory, allow soldiers to run further, lift more, and generally be more effective in the field. But, longer-term, it will allow those with muscle problems to get support from the suit and stay active.

It also has fewer of the problems generally associated with these suits, like what they euphemistically call “joint misalignment.” Yes, some powered exoskeletons can break your arm if you use them wrong. You can see why this may be a problem for consumer applications, so Wyss’ soft version is drawing considerable interest from medical device companies. The one problem is that, being soft, it won’t support the user, so they’ll need to able to take both their own weight and the force of the device as it works.

In other words, Grandma won’t be jumping over buildings if she straps this thing on. But then again, she probably just wants to walk without having a piece of metal to lean on, so that’s a good trade-off.

Elderly Greeley massage therapist can still heal with his touch

Andrew Short needed something after his wife died from bone cancer. A year later, massage helped him work out the pain.

Short’s wife died in 1995 and, a year later, he became a massage therapist. It called to him, for reasons he still can’t quite explain, even if they were many of the same reasons he became a Presbyterian minister.

He still doesn’t know how he made it through school with the grief shadowing him, but he did it. A couple years later, the pain had dulled, and he let it go.

Now, at age 75, he’s a therapist once again after graduating from the Academy of Natural Therapy in downtown Greeley.

He’s happily married once again, retired from ministry and, yes, an old guy with a hip issue and a bit of a heart problem.

But he can’t stay away from the healing power of touch. He believes in prayer, but he also believes in his own power.

“You can pray for someone,” he said, “and I’ll fix it another way. Power is a good thing. It’s good to have it, to deal with it and help others with it. Strange things happen when you touch people.”

Short could sit around all day. It sounds like heaven to some, but that’s Short’s hell. He wrestled in college and did Judo later. His favorite moves in Judo are the arm bar and a choke hold on the carotid artery, which puts an opponent to sleep in a minute or so. Power allows you to help or hurt the body. He prefers to help. His handshake tells you he could do either without much effort.

Cathryn was his first wife, and she was a superwoman, he said, a smart mother with college degrees and a good job and heart. He has two sons and five grandchildren by her. Once he mourned, he dated — he was too much of a people person not to — but he wasn’t sure he wanted to get married. Then he met Edie Gause, an executive with the Presbyterian Church. She was three years younger. He once dated a woman for a while who was 12 years younger than him, and it was fun, but they seemed to live in different eras. They couldn’t even talk about music because they grew up with different bands. It got tiring.

But Gause was from his era. They liked the Presbyterian theology and disliked George Bush, even though both of them lived in Texas.

“We agreed on all the biggies right away,” he said. “We figured we could work out the little things.”

Gause is a superwoman as well, he said.

“I don’t know how I got so lucky to have two of them in my life,” he said.

Part of the reason he took up massage again was to help Gause, who battles thoracic outlet syndrome, a group of disorders that occur from the compression of the blood vessels or nerves in the space between the collarbone and first rib. It’s painful, but he helps take it away.

That turned into helping whoever needs it.

“Why not? I enjoy doing good,” he said. “I want to be seen as a good guy, and this is a way to do that. But I enjoy the tips as well.”

Short won’t dismiss prayer. He doesn’t believe you can pray for something and receive something directly in return. You can’t pray for a new car, for instance, and wind up with a Mustang in your garage.

There are things that happen, however, that seem outside of chance. Maybe that’s what prayer gives people.

Short will help work out your hurt while you wait for salvation.
