Hello Community of Roswell!

The Baby Boomer Business Expo seems to come around faster every year.

Those who have been a part of this event since its inception and today still continue to be Sponsors or participate in some way. Along with these great people our community also has many outstanding organizations whose mission is to provide support and necessities to

those who are sick, abused, neglected and under privileged – young and old alike and even our four legged friends.

RESOLVE TO TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR HEALTH Health Tips from Eastern New Mexico Medical Center

As a proud sponsor of the 2017 Baby Boomer Conference, Eastern New Mexico Medical Center would like to remind you to take charge of your health.

Heart disease is the number one killer of Americans, but did you know that most of the risk factors that cause heart disease are preventable? By taking charge of your health and scheduling yearly checkups, you increase your odds of catching preventable conditions early. And what better time is there to resolve to take control of your health than the New Year?

Check-ups may seem like a waste of time, but they are invaluable when it comes to detecting underlying problems. The largest predictors of heart disease are conditions that you may not know that you have.

High blood pressure and diabetes often have no associated symptoms, yet; if left untreated can have very significant consequences on your health and will put you at a very high risk of a heart attack and stroke. A routine health exam could assess these, start treatment and reduce your risk substantially.

Major risk factors of heart disease include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, lack of physical activity, smoking, high blood sugar and lack of physical activity.

At a routine yearly check-up, a doctor will take into account your overall health, including your risk factors, talking with you about your

family history, medications and any new conditions that have arisen.

The physician will conduct a physical exam basically to look for any early signs of preventable disease.

This usually includes examination of your eyes, ears, mouth, throat, thyroid gland, heart, lungs, abdomen, skin and pulses. Your doctor may perform other exams as is appropriate given your individual health problems and concerns.

We recommend coming to your check-up prepared in order to make the most of your time: · Fast before your check-up in case your doctor needs to order fasting labs. It may save you an additional trip to the lab on another day. · Bring in a list of your medication prescribed by all of your doctors so that your primary doctor knows what your specialists are also prescribing you. · Ask your family about their health history so that you can tell your doctor about your own possible risks. · Keep track of any procedures or exams that you may have had done by other physicians such as eye exams, mammograms, well-woman exams etc. Also keep track of your immunizations if not received by your regular doctor so that he can update you records. · If need be, make a list of questions that you have wanted to ask your doctor, likely if you don’t write it down you will forget when you are seen.

Make an appointment with your family doctor soon to discuss your health. For more information or to find a family doctor go to http://www.enmmc.com/.

2017 BABY BOOMER EXPO

The annual Baby Boomer Expo to support Homes for Heroes of Chaves County.

By Christina Stock

This year there is more than business booming at the eighth annual Baby Boomer Business Expo & More show that takes place Feb. 25 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Roswell Convention & Civic Center, 912 N. Main St. There will be many businesses and organizations dressing up to fit to the era while providing information. There will also be speakers, entertainment and a raffle.

This year the raffle will benefit Homes For Heroes of Chaves County, Inc., an organization that serves veterans and first responders. "I started it as "A Heroes Banquet" eight years ago," said chief executive officer Bob Power.

"I had a long-term goal of starting Homes For Heroes in 10 years and the banquets were getting popular." There were setbacks five years after the banquets started to plan Homes For Heroes. "We became a nonprofit organization in March in 2016," Power said. "We started with a committee of six people, including veterans, first responders, community leaders and Barbara Gomez."

if they get injured in the line of duty they get workers' compensation and other help that the veterans don't get. Their income will be too high for us. They can afford to do the things themselves. We want to help the people who are more or less indigent.

If that need came up we would do anything to raise that money responders who were killed in the line of duty, but then we realized but it's hard. The economy isn't that good and people aren't willing to that doesn't happen very often in Chaves County. We decided to open donate." the doors and help in more than one way.
