hen it comes time for a new art exhibit to be laid out at Homewood at Frederick, volunteer Loberta Staley gets stopped multiple times by residents to tell her how much they enjoy the displays and thank her for taking the time to put the show together.
“Sometimes when we expect to be there maybe three or four hours to change the art out and put new art up it ends up being more like five hours because we spend so much time with the residents as they pass by.” - Loberta Staley
“Sometimes when we expect to be there maybe three or four hours to change the art out and put new art up it ends up being more like five hours because we spend so much time with the residents as they pass by,” she said. “That is nice. We enjoy that. ...The tremendous support from the residents has been just overwhelming. We feel so wonderful that we are able to provide this (program) that the residents come to time and time again.” When Homewood moved to its current location on Willow Road in 2000, staff discussed the possibility of having residents’ art on display in a hallway.

‘Funny Farm’ Children’s author set to release new title BY GINA GALLUCCI-WHITE SPECIAL TO THE NEWS-POST
I
n her nearly 80 years, Lois Noffsinger Spurrier has figured out several secrets to a good life. “Number one: Put your trust in your creator,” she said. “I don’t care what religion you are, but acknowledge that your creator holds you in the palm of his hand and you should not worry. Money is important, but it is not the most important thing for a good life. The bottom line is love—love for your God, for your family, for yourself. And find a job that you love and do it with a passion and you will live a successful life.” Noffsinger Spurrier certainly has found work that she loves—a couple of times. She taught for 55 years, first at the Visitation Academy in Frederick and then at Good Shepherd Preschool leading kindergarten and later music classes for 3-and 4-year-olds. While teaching, if she didn’t have a story for a unit, she would make one up. “Fortunately, I wrote it down in a book and I had all these stories that I wrote while I was teaching.” The Frederick resident is the author of 29 children’s books including “Ming and the Magic Kite,” “Oh, Say Can You See” and “The Miracle of Life.” 6

very good to me here,” she said. “I am very happy here.” All the characters in the story are animals, and she is hoping to illustrate the book herself after taking art lessons at Tranquillity.
The character of Big Mouth Bertha, she joked, is based on herself after a resident saw a huge serving spoon near her at meal time. Referring to her by her nickname, the resident said, ‘Grammy Lo, they must think you have a big mouth.’ “I said, ‘Well, I really do!’” She has been a member of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Frederick since the day she was born. She’s also an active member of the Kiwanis Club and the Frederick Women’s Civic Club, as well as an administrative member of the Junior Fire Company in Frederick. A mother of five, she has 14 grandchildren and one great grandson. “I have had a good life,” she said. “I’ve got wonderful children. My grandchildren are very good to me and I have a second family here at Tranquillity.” Local folks may also recognize her voice, as she regularly calls in to WFMD radio during the Mid-Maryland Live talk show with Tim May and Frank Mitchell. When she is introduced, the station plays the theme to the “The Little Rascals” TV show. “She developed into kind of a character,” Mitchell said. “Even though she is not necessarily part of the age group we are targeting, or talking about the topics of the day we are discussing, we enjoy having her on because she is very witty. ...She’s a very entertaining caller.” The on-air host said some of her most memorable calls have been her ankle predicting the weather. “She knows if it is throbbing, it is going to rain,” he said. “Sometimes she comes close to being as accurate as the NationalWeather Service.”

Q&A: Dr. Norman Johnson can’t imagine what it was like probably.
BY ERIN CUNNINGHAM SPECIAL TO THE NEWS-POST
What’s your favorite incident you share from the book?
“Grandpa, were you ever a kid?” Dr. Norman Johnson, 81, of Frederick, was inspired to answer that question in a book he co-wrote with his granddaughter, Audrey Stelzig, 12. The book, “Grandpa, were you ever a kid?” is a memoir about Johnson’s childhood growing up in Three Rivers, Michigan. The goal of the book is to allow children to realize what it means to be a kid and to encourage adults to reflect on when they were children. Johnson recently answered some questions about his book and his life.
It’s the incident with the best lesson learned. It’s an anecdote about trying smoking for the first time, but using corn silk and toilet paper. [In the book, the grandfather explains to his grandchildren that, unable to buy cigarettes, he made them himself from what was available. 'It was awful. We each tried one and decided that it wasn’t something we wanted to do again,' the grandfather says in the book].
Tell me about your family.
I’ve been married to my wife Marilyn for 58 years. We have three children and seven grandchildren. Two, including Audrey, live in Kensington. Three others live in California, and two are in Boston.
Have you always been a writer?
I had a 13-year career in aerospace engineering in Philadelphia before enrolling in medical school. I earned my M.D. in 1977. After that, I decided I was not happy as a practitioner, so I had the chance to be a medical director [for six different medical education companies]. I also did freelance medical writing before retiring in 2009. When I retired, I began writing books.
Are you working on other books?
Yes, I’m working on my next book. Two of them actually. One is a kids’ story, and the other is a longer adventure story about a young boy.
What else occupies your time?
What other books have you written?

I’ve self-published three books, including 'Grandpa, were you ever a kid?'. One other was a murder mystery, and the other was a science fiction book.
town with less than 7,000 population, there was a year I learned in a one-room schoolhouse. That’s kind of unique. You don’t see that much these days. This book is about relating my experiences as a kid to my grandchildren, who live in Kensington.
Tell me about this most recent one you wrote with your granddaughter.
Your co-author is one of your grandchildren. Tell me about that.
The life experiences you have as a child determine how you’ll be when you grow up. Kids nowadays, with smartphones, they don’t get a chance to be kids, in my opinion. When I was growing up in a small 8

level and is taking advanced math courses.
How did the idea for the book come about?
I talked about it with my grandchildren, my life as a child. Then, thinking about it, I thought about all of the things that happened, which were unique to me. Back then you had the free range. You’d go out of the house in the morning and say you’d be back for dinner. There were no computers, no television. We had movies. We played games. You rode your bike. Kids nowadays
I’m an avid reader. I’ve always read my entire life. I love to cook. I always liked to cook, and I’m pretty good. My wife says so, anyway. I also go on the internet. I did an extensive review of our genealogy on ancestry.com. I found out my wife and I both had ancestors on the Mayflower.
Where can people buy your book?
It’s available on Amazon, but we do this for fun. We don’t do it to try to make money. I actually surprised Audrey with the book for her birthday in June. I gave her 15 copies or so. She was surprised.

any healthcare organizations want to highlight exceptional employees through engagement and recognition.Yet some do not have a mechanism in place or the resources to do so. Founded in 2013, The Ceca Foundation aims to celebrate caregivers and support staff at participating facilities. In May, the Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit announced its first Maryland-based partnership —one of which is the Genesis Glade Valley Center in Walkersville. “We were fortunate to be able to meet some folks from the Genesis regional team in Maryland at a conference,” said Nate Hamme, foundation president. “It seemed like a great fit. They were very interested in workforce issues. They know they have some of the hardest working people in the business and finding a better way to publicly recognize and honor these exceptional people and the things they do was a high priority for them.” The foundation provides a webbased platform for nominations that is accessible anywhere and to anyone who comes to the facility—staff, patients or family members. Nominators type in a name of a staff member and tell a story of how that individual made a difference in a patient’s life. “No matter how you touch this facility, you have an opportunity to have your voice heard in a positive way and give somebody the limelight they deserve for going above and beyond with their job,” Hamme said. Nominations are reviewed quarterly by a three-person panel made up
of the healthcare administrator, a Ceca representative and a patient advocate. Hamme said they want to avoid a structure where the person with the most votes Cathy Warfield wins, but rather focus on identifying a positive behavior in the nominees that is truly inspiring. In mid-July, Cathy Warfield was recognized as Genesis Glade Valley Center’s first Ceca Foundation honoree. She was acknowledged for multiple contributions, including picking up shifts when others were unavailable, her infectious sense of humor and a willingness to dance with residents to brighten their days. “That is the type of thing that we are really looking to highlight,” Hamme said. “It is not part of her job description to be a good dancer or a dancer at all, but it is the type of thing that makes you smile. Competency is expected, but that little extra touch of the human experience is so important … Cathy is an incredibly special person.” Each foundation award winner receives a $250 honorarium, a certificate and a gold pin with the Ceca emblem. The foundation was created by Matthew and Rosemary Lawlor as a way to thank health care professionals. Matthew Lawlor’s mother lived in a military retirement community for a decade and the family was inspired by the level of care she received up until her passing. Starting with 10 facilities in Washington, D.C., the recognition program has expanded to 35 facilities in six states with the goal of expanding to between 50 and 75 by the end of this year.

Understanding Surgery Risks T
Cooper recalls an 88-year-old man seriously injured in a car crash arriving in the emergency room several years ago. “When we started explaining to his family what his life would be like—that he would be highly functionally dependent and not able to live independently again—his wife said that would be absolutely devastating, especially if he couldn’t ski,” Cooper said. “We didn’t even anticipate this was in the realm of what someone this age would want to do.” The family decided not to pursue treatment, and the patient died.
BY JUDITH GRAHAM
he decision seemed straight-forward. Bob McHenry’s heart was failing, and his doctors recommended two high-risk surgeries to restore blood flow. Without the procedures, McHenry, 82, would die. The surgeon at a Boston teaching hospital ticked off the possible complications. Karen McHenry, the patient’s daughter, remembers feeling there was no choice but to say “go ahead.” It’s a scene she’s replayed in her mind hundreds of times since, with regret. On the operating table, Bob McHenry had a stroke. For several days, he was comatose.When he awoke, he couldn’t swallow or speak and had significant cognitive impairment.Vascular dementia and further physical decline followed until the elderly man’s death five years later. Before her father’s October 2012 surgery, “there was not any broad discussion of what his life might look like if things didn’t go well,” said Karen McHenry, 49, who writes a blog about caring for older parents. “We couldn’t even imagine what ended up happening.”

es, they value their ability to live independently and spend quality time with loved ones, said Clifford Ko, professor of surgery at UCLA’s David Geffen School of Medicine. Now new standards meant to improve surgical care for older adults have been endorsed by the American College of Surgeons. All older patients should have the opportunity to discuss their health goals and goals for the procedure, as well as their expectations for their recovery and their quality of life after surgery, according to the standards. Surgeons should review a patient’s advance directive—instructions for the care they want in the event of a life-threatening medical crisis—or offer those without these documents the chance to complete them. Surrogate decision-makers authorized to act on a patient’s behalf should be named in the medical record. If a stay in intensive care is expected after surgery, that should be made clear, along with the patient’s instructions on
IT’S A COMMON COMPLAINT: Surgeons
don’t help older adults and their families understand the impact of surgery in terms people can understand, even though older patients face a higher risk of complications after surgery. Nor do they routinely engage in “shared decision-making,” which involves finding out what’s most important to patients and discussing surgery’s potential effect on their lives before setting a course for treatment. Older patients, it turns out, often have different priorities than younger ones. More than longevity, in many cas10

interventions such as feeding tubes, dialysis, blood transfusions, cardiopulmonary resuscitation and mechanical ventilation. THIS IS A FAR CRY from how “informed
consent” usually works. Generally, surgeons explain to an older patient the physical problem, how surgery is meant to correct it and what complications are possible, backed by references to scientific studies. Surgeons can help guide discussions that require complex decision-making by asking five questions, said Zara Cooper, associate professor of surgery at Harvard Medical School: How does your health affect your day-to-day life? When you think about your health, what’s most important to you? What are you expecting to gain from this operation? What health conditions or treatments worry you most? And what abilities are so critical to you that you can’t imagine living without them?
Madison, Margaret Schwarze, an associate professor of vascular surgery, has developed a tool called “best case/ worst case” to help surgeons communicate more effectively with older patients. “The idea is to tell the patient a story in terms they can understand,” Schwarze said. Instead of citing statistics on the risk of pneumonia or infection, for instance, a surgeon would explain what might happen if things went well or badly. Would the patient be in pain? Would she need nursing care? Would he be able to return home and do things he liked to do? Would she land in the ICU? Would he be able to walk on his own? A similar range of possibilities is presented for a treatment alternative. Then the surgeon identifies the most likely outcomes for surgery and the alternative, based on the patient’s circumstances. “Going through a major operation when you’re older is going to change your life,” Schwarze said. “Our goal is to help older patients imagine what these changes might look like.”

lder people are at a greater risk of fraud and other forms of financial exploitation.The United States Postal Service has seen an increase in mail fraud and is promoting community strength and fraud awareness as a way to prevent abuse. Social Security urges community members to help their more vulnerable friends, neighbors and loved ones fight fraud. You or a loved one might receive an advertisement in the mail that appears to be from Social Security, but is it really from a scammer? United States law prohibits people or non-government businesses from using words or emblems that mislead others. Their advertising can’t lead people to believe that they represent, are somehow affiliated with, or are endorsed or approved by Social Security. Scammers commonly target people who are looking for Social Security program and benefit information.

The intent of this type of call may be to steal your identity and/or money from your bank accounts. The caller might state that your Social Security number will be suspended and demand immediate payment to stop that from happening.The caller generally asks you for personal information, such as your Social Security number, date of birth, your mother's maiden name, or your bank or financial account information. Do not provide any of this information. It’s possible that a Social Security employee may contact you to follow up on a previous application for Social Security benefits or to follow up on other business you initiated with Social Security.

‘Do a Better Job’
Newseum’s ‘Daily Show’ exhibit weighs Jon Stewart’s impact on news and politics BY RUDI GREENBERG
W
hen Jon Stewart appeared in front of Congress this summer to deliver his impassioned testimony on behalf of 9/11 first responders, it was a reminder of both the power of Stewart’s words and his influence on American politics. For the Newseum, Stewart’s speech couldn’t have been timelier. Shortly thereafter, at the end of June, the journalism-focused museum opened “Seriously Funny: From the Desk of ‘The Daily Show With Jon Stewart,’” which explores Stewart’s tenure at the iconic Comedy Central series, his lasting impact on news and comedy, and the careers the show helped launch. The Newseum began planning this exhibit in 2015, when Stewart retired from “The Daily Show” and donated his desk to the museum. “There has been no acquisition that the museum has had that has received more attention, more (people saying) ‘I want to see it,’“ said Patty Rhule, the Newseum’s vice president for content and exhibit development. “The excitement is still there.” The desk, complete with a globe hanging overhead, is the literal centerpiece of the exhibit, which fills a room on the museum’s second floor. You can’t sit at it, as it’s surrounded by plexiglass, but you can stand behind it and take photos. The desk, which was used on the show from 2007 to 2015 and was modeled after actual news-show 12

Stewart’s progeny—onetime “Daily Show” correspondents Stephen Colbert, Samantha Bee, John Oliver, Hasan Minhaj—and his successor Trevor Noah— are also well represented. As is the massive Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear that Stewart and Colbert co-hosted on the National Mall in 2010. “In the exhibit, we talk about satire as a protected form of free speech under the First Amendment,” Rhule said. “Even before there was the First
Amendment, Americans were making fun of King George. So this is just a part of our American DNA: to be able to make fun of our leadership and people in leadership roles. Not every country has that opportunity.” Using video clips from “The Daily Show,” quotes from entertainers and politicians, and objects used on the series, the exhibit makes a case for how revolutionary Stewart’s show was—how his brand of satire transformed the show into something that

Choose us for her care... so you can be the daughter Often when a loved one needs care we put our “daughter” role on hold and become the caregiver. Not that we can’t or don’t want to do it – but it’s hard, overwhelming, scary at times. Instead, choose us for her care. Instead, choose us for her care. Since 1978 we’ve been helping families with high quality, compassionate home health care, telehealth, palliative care, and hospice. You’ll have peace of mind knowing mom is getting excellent care. Then you can enjoy being the daughter!

RECIPE OF THE MONTH
CROSSWORDS See answers on page 26.
Mississippi Mud Cake is a luscious combination of sweet chocolate, crunchy pecans and gooey marshmallows atop a rich chocolate cake. It’s a variation on Mississippi Mud Pie, which uses many of the same ingredients, but is served in pie form. This version of Mississippi Mud Baby Cakes from “Cooking Light: Fresh Food Superfast” (Oxmoor House) by The Cooking Light Editors doesn’t skimp on taste, but makes dessert more accessible to those sticking to healthier eating plans.
(Yield: 24)
• Cooking spray • 1 13.7-ounce package fat-freebrownie mix • 1 6-ounce carton French vanilla low-fat yogurt
SUDOKU
• 3 tablespoons finely chopped pecans • 3⁄4 cup miniature marshmallows • 24 chocolate kiss candies

HOW TO SOLVE: Fill in the game board so that the numbers 1 through 9 occur exactly once in each row, column and 3x3 box. The numbers can appear in any order and diagonals are not considered. Your initial game board will consist of several numbers that are already placed. Those numbers cannot be changed. Your goal is to fill in the empty squares following the simple rule above.
Preheat oven to 350 F. Place 24 paper miniature muffin cup liners in miniature muffin cups; coat with cooking spray. Prepare brownie mix according to the package directions, using French vanilla yogurt. Spoon batter evenly into prepared muffin cups. Sprinkle evenly with pecans. Bake at 350 F for 19 minutes. Remove cakes from oven. Place 3 marshmallows on top of each baby cake; place 1 chocolate kiss in center of marshmallows. Bake an additional 1 minute. Gently swirl melted chocolate kiss to “frost” each cake and hold marshmallows in place. Cool in pans on wire racks 10 minutes; remove from pans. Cool completely on wire racks. |

ART, continued from 4
“The residents really enjoy seeing what’s new and they look forward to the new displays. Anytime there is something new put up, they are always stopping and looking.They really enjoy looking for new (exhibits).” The pool of artists, whether it’s residents or locals, has grown by word of mouth. There is no theme prescribed for each new exhibit. Rather, artists choose what they would like to showcase—often animals or scenic landscapes. “We always get a variety,” Staley said. “There is always something of interest each time we change the exhibit. It is so encouraging that (the residents) love this art so much.” An animal protocol officer, Staley retired from the United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases at Fort Detrick in 2003. The Thurmont resident became heavily involved at Homewood. She is president of Homewood’s auxiliary and was recently elected to a two-year term as chair of the Homewood coordinating council, a corporate
organization. Staley also writes articles for the community’s local and corporate newsletters. “She is an integral part of our volunteer team,” said Liz Kannenberg, Homewood’s volunteer director. “...I think it is a great relationship that we have with her.” “She is just a wonderful asset,” Norris added. “We are really glad to have her as a part of our Homewood family.” Staley also volunteers in numerous other capacities at Lewistown Ruritan Club, Lewistown United Methodist Church and Faith United Church of Christ in Frederick. “Since I retired, it gave me more time to do some of the things that I couldn’t do before, and I think being active not only helps me, but I feel a sense of accomplishment that I can do some of these things that others might enjoy,” she said. “...People do care when you volunteer because some people can’t, and both my husband and I are in a position healthwise where we can. It is just important for us to be involved in the community we live in and we enjoy it so much.”
