On the front lines of COVID-19 St. Elizabeth team suits up to care for patients Terry DeMio Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Roughly 160 medical caregivers take turns during 12-hour shifts, though some cannot pull away so soon, on the St. Elizabeth Fort Thomas hospital unit for patients with COVID-19. Nurses and doctors and lab technicians, ultrasound experts, respiratory caregivers, you name it. They are on the front lines every day, every night, suited up and alert and caring for the sick on the fl oor. “Our unit,” Lee Ann Ernst calls it. She is a nurse. “I am always a nurse,” she says, but she is also coordinator of the St. Elizabeth Infectious Disease Response Team. It is this team that takes care of the COVID-19 patients at St. Elizabeth. The patients fi ll a 14-bed ICU, and there is an adjacent unit with about 20 beds, too, and while it isn’t technically an ICU, it is outfi tted with everything needed to function as one. Both areas, Ernst says, are nearly full. The patients face medical caregivers in white jumpsuits with high boot covers and three pairs of gloves, each covering the other. Each is a diff erent color so that any tears can be spotted quickly. They all wear a PAPR (pronounced PAPar), or powered air-purifying respirator, which covers the head and shields the face and blows a continuous plume of air. Over the jumpsuit goes what the team jokingly calls the “blue table cloth,” a blue sheet that, Ernst says, “covers everything.” Those who enter a room in full gear plan to stay for four hours. This, Ernst says, provides for not only continuous care but bonding with the patient. “The beauty of being in a PAPR for four hours is, it does give us time to be present with the patient,” she says. These patients, who’ve surrendered

their lives to her team, can see their caregiver behind the apparatus. “You can still see the nurse’s eyes,” Ernst says. “You can see a smile. “You can see caring.” And the team members help each other. If a nurse needs help in turning a patient, whoever is available at that moment will jump in with expertise. They all have their specialties, but they always work together. Ernst has been the coordinator for this team for St. Elizabeth Healthcare since its inception as a response to the Ebola crisis of 2014. While more medical caregivers now grace the team, they share this long-term bond, she says, “a core group of dedicated professionals that understand how to take care of people in highly contagious environments.” See ST. ELIZABETH, Page 2A

At the start of every shift, they take each others’ temperatures. Anyone with a fever or possible COVID-19 symptoms is out. Then it’s time for total decontamination of ambulances. Every surface from seats to steering wheels is scrubbed, every container wiped down with disinfectant. The ﬂ oor is mopped. Then they are ready for the 911 calls. And if you call for paramedics during the novel coronavirus pandemic, their faces might be shielded. They likely will be wearing goggles and face masks and gloves when they approach you. This is the new world of emergency response. A world of increasing safety precautions, with distance a primary rule, and a world in which rules change rapidly and continuously. “Cincinnati Fire Department, like every ﬁ re department across the United States, we are learning things minute by minute,” said Capt. Kevin Uhl of the city’s EMS Operations Bureau. Two weeks ago, Cincinnati medics were wearing less personal protective equipment than they are today. Tomorrow, it might be more. It is not a pleasant sight for the ones who’ve called for help. “When you pull up to a house for a

fall and have an N95 mask and goggles, it’s scary for people,” said fi refi ghter/ paramedic Jordan Hines, who works for the Crescent Springs Villa Hills Fire and EMT, Erlanger Fire and Independence Fire departments in Northern Kentucky. The personal protective equipment, or PPE, can be “off -putting,” Uhl agreed. “That’s our chance to educate the public,” Crescent Springs Villa Hills fi refi ghter/EMT Dick Burns said. “On every run, we use universal precautions: Masks. Gloves. Six feet apart. Until we care for the patient. “It is a respectful thing,” Burns said. It’s not just about protecting the fi refi ghter. “We don’t want to pass along anything to them, either.” The fi rst responders ask you to remember: A fi refi ghter or paramedic, even most of those who are infected with COVID-19, can’t be sure who has the respiratory infection and who doesn’t. Reasons for a call may be deceiving to a paramedic. “We experienced, at the infancy of this, with car wrecks (and) you’d fi nd out that they were on their way to the doctor’s offi ce for a fever,” Uhl said.

She has added training to her arsenal and grown in her own expertise to protect the team and the patients. That is essential for the caregivers to survive and for the patients to get expert care. “We all rely on each other,” Ernst says. “Everyone is committed to these patients. It’s what we believe in.” An infectious disease expert, Dr. Dori Savani, kept St. E medical caregivers apprised of the power and progress of the novel coronavirus since early January, and she knew the time would come for the Infectious Disease Response Team to step in. “Once we got called in, we would be here to stay,” Ernst says. They are required to leave the hospital at a shift’s end for their own health, of course, and so they can keep going. But it’s not always easy to leave. “It’s not uncommon for members of this team to pick up extra hours,” Ernst says. When they do leave, they promise

each other they will do at least one thing for themselves, she says, and not laundry or taking out the trash. She laughs because their individual “self ” care activities go the range. From having a drink to praying to weight-lifting and even, for some, “watching a little bit of TV before bed.” She goes home when she must, and she is glad to live close to the Fort Thomas hospital. She is a mother of three adult children with a comforting, empty house, Ernst says. Another laugh escapes before she adds, “I don’t have any trouble sleeping.” Then it is back to work. Hard work. Emotionally diﬃ cult work. Families call about their loved ones and, because no visitors are allowed in, Ernst’s team talks to them and relays messages to the patients whenever possible. “Everyone here feels a lot of empathy,” she says, “because this disease has separated families. It has pulled people apart.” “My heart goes out with these family members.”

And should end-of-life near, the team will make an exception for a loved one to visit the patient who is dying. The family member will be given high shoe covers and a blue, surgical mask, a face shield and gloves. And will be permitted inside to be with their loved one until death. Ernst will not speak of individuals speciﬁ cally in her unit. There are privacy laws and just plain respect, she says. But Ernst almost chokes up when she stops to think for a moment. “I just feel like it’s been a very trying time in our world,” she says. “We have come together and are giving these patients the very best care.” For all her knowledge and experience and years of working to coordinate and grow and improve this St. Elizabeth Infectious Disease Response Team, and for all the determination and team spirit and expertise her team has acquired, Ernst says, this, the novel coronavirus and its COVID-19, is the ultimate test. “I never thought I’d see something like this,” she says. Ernst pauses, then adds ﬁ rmly, “Not this magnitude.”

medics do “express cleaning” of the ambulances. Once back at the fi rehouse, deep-cleaning is required, said Fire Chief Jeff Wendt. In Kenton County, Homeland Security & Emergency Management Director Steve Hensley said, health offi cials, county judges executive and other agency leaders confer every morning to discuss latest needs and latest discoveries about safety and COVID-19. They alter the protocols as needed so emergency responders (and hospital staff ) remain as protected as possible. “We have a limited amount of staff ing, and our responders are our most valuable resource,” Hensley explained. So far, emergency caregivers have had enough personal protective equipment (PPE). Hensley’s agency has provided more than 100,000 pieces of personal protection equipment – gloves, masks, goggles, face shields, hand sanitizer – to agencies in Kenton County including fi re departments, the hospital and longterm care facilities. Some equipment came from the Strategic National Stockpile, the country’s largest supply of such equipment and pharmaceuticals used in the event of public health crises such as COVID-19, in which supplies may run out. Ohio offi cials have said its share will not be enough. Wendt said calls have dropped signifi cantly in the past several weeks. Uhl said calls in Cincinnati dipped simply because of the lack of traffi c in the city

from employees now working from home, the lack of events drawing people. They know all of that could change, fast. Because of COVID-19. For you, the caller, rules have changed, too. You’ll be asked now, in Northern Kentucky, a few questions designed to screen whether you or the person you’ve called about might have COVID-19. Have you traveled outside the country in the past 14 days? That’s one, Hensley said. If a paramedic arrives at your home, she might place a mask over your nose and mouth as a ﬁ rst step Hines said the changes just make sense in the face of a pandemic, especially one that still has unknowns. He responded to someone with a

breathing problem a few weeks ago. “I stayed away from my parents for two weeks,” he said.

It is a strange, new situation, Hines said. Paramedics will drop off a patient with symptoms that could be from COVID-19, but they won’t know if the person has the infection for days. They fi nd out the patients’ test results through a designated St. Elizabeth employee. “If we bring a patient to (St. Elizabeth) Edgewood, and they’re shipped to (St. Elizabeth) Fort Thomas, she calls the EMS director with the diagnosis,” Hines said. Wendt said there have been a couple of fi refi ghters in Northern Kentucky quarantined with possible COVID-19 symptoms. Hines heard that, too. “Thankfully, I haven’t been in contact with anybody who’s had to go home,” Hines said. Burns, an eight-year fi refi ghter/EMT with Crescent Springs Villa Hills, said he’s going with the fl ow and reassuring residents as he does his job with its ever-changing rules. “I don’t feel overwhelmed,” Burns said. “I believe this will pass. “It’s just going to take time.”

Dayton, KY teachers hold parade to show love for students: ‘We’re in this together’ Pat Brennan

Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Dayton, Kentucky teachers to took to the streets in a grand gesture with a simple message: They miss and appreciate their students, and we’re all in this together. In the midst of a Kentucky-wide ban on in-person teaching of public schools through May 1, Dayton teachers paraded in cars through the streets of the Northern Kentucky city Thursday, April

2 for close to three hours. They draped streamers on about 50 vehicles, honked horns and used noisemakers in a show of love intended for students they can’t teach in-person and their families. Some students lined the streets to reciprocate the gesture. “We had teachers, teacher assistants, family resource coordinators, secretaries, principals, assistant principals,” said Dayton Independent Schools Superintendent, Jay Brewer. “We paraded through town, multiple

diﬀ erent loops to make sure we covered nearly every street. It lasted two hours and 45 minutes. It was great to see the students out there, many of them with the parents, grandparents, holding signs and looking for their teachers.” Residents posted on Facebook about the parade. The teachers have been advised by state and federal authorities to maintain social distancing, so they can’t even come within six feet of their students. Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear said

April 2 that the in-person teaching exclusion would continue through at least May 1. Still, the bond shared between some of Dayton’s classroom leaders and students was on display for many in Northern Kentucky to see on Thursday. “I think the message is we’re all together,” Brewer said. “I think that’s the message that continues to play out, the sense that you’re not alone. We’re in this together and we’re in this together to lean on each other.” Bob Strickley contributed

Dan Mathew couldn’t taste – or smell – his pizza. “It’s not like when you have a head cold and you can inhale real deep and get a faint taste,” he said. “It’s just gone.” He knew what the loss of his two senses, paired with his cough and hospitalized wife, Renee, meant for him. An infectious disease doctor told him to treat the symptoms as if he had COVID-19, the highly contagious upper respiratory disease caused by the novel coronavirus. This Northern Kentucky couple, both 47, who usually found themselves managing emergency situations through work, had to battle the disease apart. Renee, a nurse practitioner at St. Elizabeth Healthcare, started to feel ill on a recent Wednesday. That’s when Dan, who works as the director of emergency communications in Kenton County, felt his symptoms begin too, he told The Enquirer. By Wednesday night, Renee’s fever got worse. Her chest ached and she had shortness of breath, she wrote on Facebook. By Saturday she was hospitalized and on that Sunday she got a positive

result from her COVID-19 test. The doctor told Dan since Renee tested positive, he would likely get the same result. So, Dan works from home and reminds his employees to stay home if they feel ill. He texts Renee when she’s too winded to FaceTime and he treats his symptoms. Dan is thankful his symptoms are mild. He has older kids to run errands and fi ll the house with groceries. “There’s people on ventilators that are suff ering, the outcome of that … it’s very sad,” he said. He isn’t sure when Renee will be able to come home, and said it depends on when her dependency on supplemental oxygen is less. Renee wrote that her case has been far from mild. “I can't walk more than three steps without getting so winded that I feel like I may suff ocate. Sometimes it is hard to speak in sentences, so I lay very still in bed, get up only as necessary, and pray,” she wrote on her Facebook post that received over 2,000 comments and 4,000 shares. Nurses hung signs on the window of her room with words of encouragement, which made Renee cry, she wrote. “These nurses have worked hard and

deserve all the credit they can get,” she wrote. Renee was one of the 41 conﬁ rmed cases in Northern Kentucky, as of that Wednesday afternoon. Dan represents an unknown number of residents that have symptoms and haven’t been tested. Dan coughed – and explained “it wasn’t a surprise by any means,” that they both had the symptoms. They had

been reading about the illness and knew it would appear in Northern Kentucky. He doesn’t feel the need to get a test since there is no cure. He did insist, though, that everyone needed to take the pandemic seriously. He and Renee took it seriously and still fell ill. “It is what it is. And, it’s here and people need to start paying attention,” Dan said. “Please listen to the recommendations, stay healthy, you don't want to be where I am right now," Renee wrote. "It is a terrifying place with lots of uncertainty. I am still amazed at how fast it took me down." Editor’s note: Information included reﬂ ects this article’s original publication date – April 1.

Celebrate Easter with coﬀ ee cake, deviled eggs

A cinnamon coffee cake is a perfect treat for Easter.

Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld Guest columnist

PHOTOS BY RITA HEIKENFELD

As I write this column, we are still sheltering in place. And thinking about Easter. Maybe you are, too. Instead of our annual Easter brunch and egg hunt, we’ll be celebrating on a smaller scale. Yet there’s still much to feel blessed about. Just take a walk outside. Check out the beautiful wild violets and blooming forsythia (they both make lovely jellies). Trees are bursting with buds and blooms. Reconnect. You know, friends and family are still there, and now’s the time for catch up. I worked several hours in my herb garden and was happy to see my mom’s heirloom peppermint pushing through the soil. Mother Nature is doing her part and we will do ours. How about baking a coﬀ ee cake? While you’re boiling eggs to color, boil extra. Add deviled eggs to your Easter menu. Both recipes use easy to ﬁ nd ingredients.

Coffee cake with pecan cinnamon streusel America’s Test Kitchen always comes up with genius ideas, like adding a little water to streusel topping and sprinkling it on the edges ﬁ rst to make it adhere better.

1 teaspoon cinnamon

This uses the food processor for both cake and topping. It’s baked in a 9” springform pan and freezes well. Here’s my slight adaptation from their recipe.

1 2⁄ 3 cups flour

INGREDIENTS

Deviled eggs add a festive touch to any occasion.

Simple deviled eggs No real recipe, but for every 6 eggs, mix yolks with 1⁄ 4 cup mayonnaise and a squirt of mustard. Add more mayonnaise if necessary. Season to taste.

Streusel 1 cup pecans or other nuts, toasted (if you’re out, omit and then when cake cools, drizzle a powdered sugar glaze over streusel) ⁄ 3 cup packed brown sugar

⁄ 2cup flour

4 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled 1 teaspoon water Cake 1 cup sugar 1 1⁄ 2 teaspoons cinnamon 1 teaspoon baking powder ⁄ 2 teaspoon baking soda

⁄ 2 teaspoon salt

1 stick butter, cut into 8 pieces and softened ⁄ 4 cup milk

1 large egg plus 1 large yolk 2 teaspoons vanilla INSTRUCTIONS Preheat oven to 350.

Grease and flour 9” springform pan and place on baking sheet. Streusel Process nuts and sugar in food processor until ﬁ nely ground. Add flour and cinnamon and pulse to combine. Add melted butter and water and pulse until mixture begins to form clumps. Remove and set aside. Cake Process flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, soda and salt until combined. Add butter and pulse until very small but visible pieces of butter remain. Add milk, egg, yolk and vanilla. Pulse until dry ingredients are moistened.

Scrape sides. Pulse until mixture is well combined — some small pieces of butter will remain. Pour into pan and smooth top. Starting at edges of pan, sprinkle streusel evenly over batter. Bake until center is ﬁ rm and skewer inserted into it comes out clean, 45-50 minutes or so. Place on wire rack, cool 15 minutes, then remove ring and cool completely. Transfer cake to platter, cut into wedges and serve. No springform pan? Use a 9” cake pan and leave in pan to serve.

Hospital parking lot during COVID-19:

SCHOOL NEWS

‘It’s the scariest thing I’ve seen’ Terry DeMio Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Fear swept over her. She looked through her windshield as she sat in her car in the hospital parking lot. Waiting for her phone to ring. “It’s the worst thing I ever experienced,” said Kimberly Wright of Taylor Mill. She’d watched as paramedics disappeared behind the glass emergency department doors of St. Elizabeth Hospital in Edgewood with her husband, who’d fallen ill with a non-COVID-19 emergency. Visitors are restricted at hospitals during this novel coronavirus pandemic. It is for their protection, that of the patients and the healthcare workers. It is part of this current normal. Wright knew that. But she was not prepared for what it meant. “That ER parking lot was the scariest thing I’ve seen,” she said a day later. From her car in that parking lot on March 31, she looked around and saw others sitting in their cars, waiting for a call as she waited for a doctor to call her. She wore an N95 mask and gloves. “To say I was distraught is an understatement,” Wright told friends through Facebook the next day. “I watched as ambulance after ambulance brought people in, and helicopters landing. “I worry about him catching this virus now,” she wrote, “and I just plain worry.” The call came, ﬁ nally, and the ER doctor was reassuring. The nurses were, too. They gently encouraged her to go home. She stayed four hours in the parking

lot anyway, then put her car into drive, urging herself to heed the nurses’ advice. “It was so hard to leave and come home,” Wright said. “They are taking excellent care of him,” she quickly added. “I get updates every couple hours.” But at night, she kept thinking about the parking lot. And, of course, about her husband. “I’m trying to stay safe for him,” she said. Wright is not new to crisis. She founded Kentucky Parents Against Heroin, a support and advocacy group for people with children with addiction. She has worked the front lines, demanding help from government leaders, volunteering to help others whose children have died and those whose kids are in active addiction. She has lived, too, through the fears of having a child with addiction, now safe in recovery. She is a crusader for public health action to save lives. And with all the confusion of the parking lot stay, Wright found herself in a familiar position again, drawn to warn others about the impact of a health crisis. This time, the crisis is COVID-19. And she is imploring people, “Stay home.” “I’m begging people to stay home,” Wright said, “so you never have to experience what I’ve been through the past 24 hours.” Editor’s note: Information included reﬂ ects this article’s original publication date – April 2.

Thomas native, former Highlands High School and University of Notre Dame football player and son of NBC Sunday Night Football analyst and former Cincinnati Bengals great Cris Collinsworth, is hosting a series which was set to debut April 1 across NBC Sports’ digital properties (including NBC Sports’ YouTube channel) titled, Distanced Training: Ready to Get Back in the Game. Jac recently left ESPN to join his father at NBC Sports. The series’ ﬁ rst episode features former Elder High School standout Kyle Rudolph, a tight end for the Minnesota Vikings who recently announced that he and his family are donating 82,000 meals to Minnesota residents aﬀ ected by uncertainty related to new coronavirus. Collinsworth took time for a Q&A with The Enquirer about the new show and his recent career change: Sounds like a very topical show

you’re hosting. Which aspects of it do you expect viewers to gravitate toward the most? JC: Well, what I have been drawn to most is the ability to hang in the living rooms of some of the biggest stars in sport. The athletes are sitting in their sweatpants trying to ﬁ gure out the new world, just like the rest of us, and that’s

exactly what the series feels like. How many of the athletes featured in the ﬁ rst three episodes did you know previously? Do you remember when you ﬁ rst met Kyle Rudolph? Did you know him well before he agreed to be featured in the series? JC: The only one I knew previously was Kyle Rudolph. He was before my

time at Notre Dame, but we did a feature for NFL Countdown last year on touchdown celebrations. He’s one of the truest pros and most generous people I’ve been around in any walk of life. I enjoy learning from him. What has been amazing is how different every conversation has been. Whether it’s training for the NFL Combine, using I-racing technology instead of IndyCar racing, missing OTAs, breaking down the new CBA and why Kyle Rudolph voted the way he did, or adjusting to the new Olympics dates, every day I learn something. It has easily been the greatest quarantine entertainment that I have found. Hopefully it will be the same for the audience. Given that your transition from ESPN to NBC Sports came at a tough time with the spread of coronavirus, has your dad helped you to get acquainted at NBC Sports? Did you get a chance to meet many people there before they started working from home? JC: I was able to meet a handful of my new coworkers in Stamford right before everything began getting serious in the U.S. For four years in college, I was an intern on Notre Dame football coverage and then again for the Rio Olympics. In many ways, it has been a reunion. Dad is quarantining diligently by the beach, but he always has my back.

Rare disorder doesn’t stop Houston from playing Holy Cross volleyball senior overcomes rare condition to get DI scholarship to NKU James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Volleyball was a backup plan for Torie Houston when she was growing up. Now, it’s a lifeline for the Holy Cross High School senior, who is getting ready for the next step in her life, to be a Division I volleyball player. Houston, a volleyball standout at Holy Cross, has signed to continue the sport at Northern Kentucky University beginning this fall. It’s a step that was hard to imagine nearly 15 years ago when she was a little kid having trouble walking. Houston is living with a rare condition called a cavernoma, an abnormal cluster of blood vessels with bubbles that can leak blood. The cluster is currently below her brain stem near her spinal column. Her mother, Becky Houston, also the Holy Cross head volleyball coach, said estimates are that the condition only affects one in a million people in the United States. “The blood dripped in the spinal cord and the spine doesn’t like any foreign substance,” Becky Houston said. “It’s a very odd thing. It’s a very rare thing to happen.” The condition ﬁ rst surfaced when Torie was 4 years old. Houston started feeling lethargic and lacking her usual energy, and eventually had trouble walking. Meanwhile, the left side of her body started showing signs of paralysis. After a wide variety of tests, Torie was initially diagnosed with a tumor, and doctors at Children’s Hospital said the only option was removing the tumor. Doing that would leave her a quadriplegic without use of any of her limbs. “If we do not operate she will die, and when we do operate she will be a quadriplegic,” Becky Houston said. “There is nothing that can prepare you for this news, it brings you to your knees and changes you forever.” The family asked for a second opinion, and Children’s sent MRI images to other doctors around the country.

Second opinion One of those doctors spotted the true cause, the rare condition called cavernoma. Instead of a risky surgery, Torie was treated with steroids and eventually began to recover. The cluster could still not be removed by surgery. Torie would be able to walk and have a normal life, but could not do strenuous physical activities, including sports. “We were blessed to have our daughter alive and walking, talking and smiling,” Becky said. “Of course there was some disappointment for Torie as she

loved to play any sport, but in the scheme of things, the loss of sports was minute.” Things improved at age 11, when an MRI revealed the cluster had elongated and moved further down her spinal column. Doctors then allowed her to play volleyball, a non-contact sport, while continuing to monitor the cluster with regular exams. While it wasn’t basketball, her fi rst love, Torie began to embrace another net sport. “The news is devastating when you fi rst get it,” her mother said. “Just being cautious through the middle school age and building confi dence. She was fi ne. They said that the only thing we need to worry about is if there is a quick jolt to the neck area.” Houston still has to be careful as long

as the cluster is around. She cannot do any contact sports or do anything that could result in a hard hit or strain to the neck, including high-risk activities such as ziplining or jumping on a trampoline. But she can live a normal life and enjoy the sport she loves, while majoring in biology or a similar science at NKU. “I try my hardest not to think about it,” Torie said. “I don’t let it aﬀ ect my day-to-day life. Growing up, it was the hardest thing to deal with. There are some limitations and things I can’t do with it.”

Houston was the setter at Holy Cross and quickly her talent in the sport begin to shine through. “I probably saw that her freshman year in high school,” Becky said. “She started standing out among her peers. She has beautiful hands and is a very smart player, puts the ball in the right spot for her hitters. At Holy Cross, she had to do it all: Hit, set and pass. It was a lot of fun to watch her grow into the person she is.” Houston began to embrace her talent and play club volleyball with the Northern Kentucky Volleyball Club, which produces a lot of future college players. “Growing up, my mom and dad were both athletes,” Torie said. “I thought volleyball was fun and I enjoyed playing with my friends but I didn’t take it very seriously like basketball. I realized I didn’t want to give up sports and that I loved volleyball. My teammates were able to help me and push me, and they taught me everything I know.” Houston is a cousin to former Holy Cross and NKU standout Jayden Julian, who has been a big inﬂ uence on her. Volleyball relies on constant teamwork and communication. “The people I’ve met playing volleyball and the life lessons I’ve learned,” Torie Houston said. “With NKYVC, I really learned self-discipline and how to be a good teammate. You want to play for the person next to you more than you play for yourself. Communication is the key. You learn you want to be better for your teammates.”

Packaging toilet paper rolls while practicing social distancing. PROVIDED

Preparing for door to door gift giving in Latonia. PROVIDED

Loving our neighbors: One roll of toilet paper at a time Calvary Baptist Church, located in the Latonia neighborhood of Covington, had the privilege of distributing 9,600 rolls of toilet paper to our neighbors in the midst of this coronavirus crisis. The crisis hit and the shelves went empty, just as Calvary was considering a tangible way to love others. Who knew the gold bar of the spring of 2020 would be toilet paper? A closed business entity gave Calvary the opportunity to purchase load of inventory for distribution. Some 100 families from our congregation were given product for their family and as many four packs of toilet paper that they would give to their neighbors. The neighbor pack came with an invitation to hope through knowing Jesus Christ and an invitation to our online Easter service (Facebook live: Calvary Baptist Covington and www.cbcky.org, 10:30 a.m.) with the theme of “The Power of Hope.” Teams of Calvary volunteers gave out the remaining 5,000 rolls of toilet paper on March 29. We were able to share with 1300 homes. What a joy for us to share this encouragement with our neighbors. Jesus is good news to the world. For all of us, this Easter could not be more timely. There is hope. Securing and passing out this common staple to our friends and neighbors was Calvary’s joyful privilege this Easter season. Eric Mounts, Calvary Baptist Church

Due to COVID-19 – NKY Girl Scouts ask local businesses to buy nearly 50,000 surplus boxes of cookies ERLANGER, Ky. – Girl Scouts of Kentucky’s Wilderness Road (GSKWR) relies heavily on cookie sales as they represent over 80% of its annual operating budget and provide girls and their troops the opportunity to set goals and earn their own money, used to fund rigorous programs and growth opportunities. Because GSKWR Girl Scouts must sell cookies doorto-door and at public gathering places, the impact of actions around the COVID-19 pandemic have halted all direct cookie sales. GSKWR has warehouse locations throughout Kentucky housing the 3,900 cases (46,800 boxes) of surplus cookies that must be sold. Companies throughout Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati, large and small, are urged to purchase cases of cookies to support front-line workers in healthcare, restaurant businesses, manufacturing, distribution and any other essential businesses or organizations that continue to work during the COVID-19 crisis, or to donate to food banks or senior facilities to support vulnerable populations. “Our Girl Scout Troops actually came up with the idea to drive a call to action to the Kentucky business community to buy cookies to thank employees and help support all the local social service agencies”, said Haleigh McGraw, Communications Director, Girl Scouts of Kentucky’s Wilderness Road. “Our hope is that the business community will step up and buy all of our surplus inventory so that we can continue to serve our 8,000 K-12 girl members throughout Central, Eastern and Northern Kentucky”, she continued. GSKWR is asking businesses to support its Kentucky Cookie Entrepreneurs by purchasing as many cases as they can, with a minimum of fi ve cases for $250. . Troops learn goal setting, fi nancial literacy and entrepreneurship skills through the Girl Scout Cookie Program. Revenue from the Girl Scout Cookie Program maintains GSKWR property and provides programming on 4 camp properties, provides fi nancial assistance to more than 2,500 girls, training to nearly 4,000 volunteers, and other Girl Scout activities throughout the year.

Supporting each other is important during challenging times People who experience a traumatic event like CO-

VID-19 and even those who watch it unfold from a distance, on television for example, can experience negative stress and serious emotional distress. This is because traumatic events are recognized as a threat to one’s personal safety or the world as we know it. It is also not uncommon for traumatic events to leave us with unanswered questions and uncertainty. Responding to these situations in a productive manner can help us become stronger individuals and better community and family members. For example, try not to compare yourself to others, as no two people will respond to traumatic events and changes to daily routines the same way. Some people may panic or feel so numb or overwhelmed that they don’t even know how to respond, while others respond with anxiety or feel as if they’ve lost control. Others may experience grief and disbelief. Common reactions to trauma also include rapid heartbeat, sweating, changes in daily activity and sleeping and eating patterns, sensitivity to lights and sounds, increased confl ict in relationships, headaches and nausea. It is Mason not uncommon for children to experience bed-wetting. According to the CDC, many people do not start feeling “normal” again for weeks or even months after a traumatic event ends. If stress symptoms persist or get worse, a person could be suff ering from post-traumatic stress disorder, and a medical or mental health professional should be contacted for consultation and follow-up. Research has shown that moving forward and working at resolving one’s feelings at the time of a traumatic event is benefi cial. This helps a person reestablish a sense of safety and trust. In a time of tragedy, be there for each other. Practice patience and understanding with your family members, friends and co-workers. Realize the additional stress may make them more irritable than normal. At times family members and friends may feel helpless—not knowing what to do or how to help, but sometimes just being available is more help than you realize. If someone wants to talk to you about their feelings and experience, encourage them and let them share. If you cannot meet face-to-face, use social media or exchange phone calls or hand-written letters in the mail. Be careful not to force people to talk about their feelings or share information about the traumatic event if they are not ready. It can also be helpful to be sure that a person is educated about the situation so that stress is not rising over assumptions and rumors. Preferred outlets for information regarding national and statewide events include the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s website https:// www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html and the statewide page, https://chfs.ky.gov/agencies/ dph/pages/covid19.aspx. Be a friend to yourself and others. Check on relatives who live alone. Even in times of social distancing, a phone call can go a long way in making someone feel loved. Recognize that you and your family and friends will likely experience new or diff erent emotions after everything returns to normal and that it will take time to heal. The CDC recommends individuals maintain their usual routine as much as possible, be kind, turn to family, friends and community members for support and recognize when things are out of control and help is needed. The American Psychological Association recommends engaging in healthy behaviors such as eating well-balanced meals, staying physically active, sleeping and practicing stress-relief through relaxation and meditation.

and prepare them with their own hands. They can hear foods popping or sizzling in the pan and smell the aromas. Finally, the best part is they get to taste their fi nished product. Cooking is a great opportunity for family bonding, and it opens the door for discussion, creativity, and learning. Preparing a meal provides new tasks that are not too diffi cult for a young person to accomplish under proper supervision. Cooking activities help build both fi ne and gross motor skills. Whisking, cutting or measuring with teaspoons and tablespoons gives practice to wrist and fi nger muscles. Stirring, pouring and ladling uses shoulder and arm muscles associated with gross motor skills. Food preparation also requires math and science skills. 4-H’ers can practice simple math by learning about amounts and measurements and the concepts of more and less. They can hypothesize about what might happen next when a recipe gets changed. They also have a front row seat to watch changes as they occur. A special benefi t is young people may be more inclined to try new or a greater variety of foods if they are actively involved in preparing it. To get started, fi nd a recipe for your

family to prepare. The University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service and the Kentucky Department of Agriculture off er a lot of great Averbeck recipes featuring local produce in their Plate it Up Kentucky Proud project. Recipes are available online at https://fcs-hes.ca.uky.edu/piukp-recipes. You may also want to get creative and make your own recipe. Youth can use the MyFitnessPal website located at https://www.myfi tnesspal.com/recipe/calculator to determine a recipe’s nutrition and caloric content. Remember, before cooking begins, each person preparing food should practice proper food safety measures and wash their hands. As you work through the recipe, make sure young people are following safe food handling practices, and you properly clean up any messes left after the meal is prepared, washing cooking equipment and sanitizing food preparation surfaces. Young people may even develop a new hobby or interest in cooking. They can take their interest further by inquiring about local opportunities to participate in local 4-H cooking programs. They also may want to prepare a 4-H recipe to enter in their county fair. You can fi nd 4-H fair recipes online at https://bit.ly/2QWKmGP. For more information, contact Mary

the issues it faces. Through these experiences, 4-H’ers are making a positive impact in their communities. A 10year-long, nationwide Farley study showed that 4H’ers in grades seventh through 12th are nearly four times more likely than their peers to make contributions to their communities, and 4-H members in grades eighth through 12th are two times more likely to be civically active compared to their peers. In the past year in Kentucky, service projects helped more than 21,000 young people learn how to take responsibility for their own actions and allowed more than 11,500 youth to become better leaders. Nearly 3,300 4-H members are taking service a step further and are mentoring younger youth. On November 25, 2019, 30 teens from across the county devoted 2 hours to making a community service project happen for needy families. The teens made fl eece blankets for the Brighton Center in Newport to distribute to needy youth and senior citizens. To fi nd out how your young person can get involved with 4-H, contact the Campbell County Extension offi ce at 859-572-2600 or check out the website at: http://campbell.ca.uky.edu/ Sherri Farley, Campbell County Cooperative Extension

4-H is committed to helping our youth learn to serve others A desire to serve others is a concept Kentucky 4-H thrives to encourage its members to practice. Serving others teaches 4-H’ers about the challenges and issues their community faces and gives them a chance to make a positive impact. 4-H’ers commit their hands to larger service as part of the offi cial 4-H pledge said at every club meeting. Young people learn about two major types of service that allow them to make a positive impact in their community. The fi rst one is service learning. Through service learning, 4-H’ers take ownership and responsibility for a community project of their choosing. This process requires them to identify a need or an issue, develop a plan for addressing it and then execute their plan. By performing this type of service project, 4-H members learn how to become leaders and to be active in their community. The second type of service is community service. This type is focused on a fulfi lling a predetermined need in the community and is a great way for 4H’ers learn about their community and
