GENERAL

BENEFITS

Inspiration: One oft-overlooked benefit of working with professional contractors is the likelihood that they can draw up ideas for projects that homeowners might otherwise never have thought up on their own. Homeowners without specific ideas in mind can ask contractors to come up with various scenarios before committing to a particular one. Veteran contractors can draw on years of experience to create designs that DIYers might be incapable of coming up with and/or incapable of seeing through to completion.

PAW’S CORNER

Cats Can Hide Illness

Symptoms, So Be Aware

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: My cat Sisko became very una ectionate a few days ago. He hid under the bed or crouched in the corner of the living room and refused to cuddle. en I noticed when he sat in the litter box that he meowed as if he was in distress. I called the veterinarian, and they had me bring him right in. Turns out that Sisko had a urinary tract infection! He’s doing ne now, but I wanted to tell my story so that other readers will know that a sudden behavior change in their cat could be a medical problem. -- Kurt W., Parsippany, New Jersey

DEAR KURT: ank you for sharing! You did absolutely the right thing: You noticed a sudden change in your cat’s behavior, kept a closer eye on his activities and litter habits, and contacted the vet’s o ce to share your observations and get advice.

Cats are very secretive about their health. It’s an instinctive behavior that helped their ancestors hide from predators. So it is common for owners not to notice when their cat is experiencing pain, such as a sore tooth or an illness like a urinary tract infection.

While the occasional hairball episode isn’t a cause for concern, there are some symptoms that should prompt a call to the vet for an appointment.

-- Your cat acts withdrawn, sits hunched over, refuses to play or be petted.

-- Eating or drinking habits change.

-- Litter box behavior changes: meowing, missing the box or noticeable diarrhea.

-- Grooming problems develop, or they have clumpy fur or irritated skin.

-- Physical symptoms: eye or ear discharge, strange breathing, unusual vomiting, lethargy or drooling.

REDUCE RADON IN YOUR HOME

Radon is an odorless, invisible gas that may be lurking in homes even if homeowners are unaware of its presence. Although it is a naturally occurring substance, radon has the potential to cause serious illness. Therefore, its detection and reduction are paramount.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Surgeon General’s Office have estimated that as many as 20,000 lung cancer deaths are caused each year by radon, which is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. The EPA further notes that many homes are in radon danger areas. Nearly one in three homes checked in seven states and on three lands designated for Native Americans had screening levels over 4 pCi/L, the EPA’s recommended action level for radon exposure. According to Air Chek, Inc., a radon testing resource, a radon level of 4 pCi/l is equal to approximately 35 times as much radiation as the Nuclear Regulatory Commission would allow if a person was standing next to the fence of a radioactive waste site.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

Chalazions Continue to Develop in Both Eyelids

DEAR DR. ROACH: Are oral antibiotics ever prescribed to treat chalazions, in addition to eye drops and ointment? I have had two this year for seemingly no reason. They were treated with tobramycin eye drops, ointment and warm compresses. The first one didn’t resolve with those meds and was excised surgically. That eyelid then became infected without a chalazion and was treated with a second round of antibiotic drops. It remains a bit puffy and pinkish in color, which I chalked up to the new normal appearance.

Now, a chalazion has developed in the other eyelid. I don’t wear eye makeup and use an eyelid cleanser recommended by my ophthalmologist. I am an otherwise healthy 76-year-old woman. Could there be a systemic bacterial or viral infection causing chalazions to keep developing? -- M.W.

ANSWER: The terms for different types of eyelid lesions can be a bit confusing. Most people are familiar with a stye, which is a localized inflammation of the upper or lower eyelid, most commonly caused by an infection of one of the glands of the external eye, usually by the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. A stye is also called a hordeolum. An external hordeolum is in the eyelash follicle or the lid margin, whereas an internal hordeolum is inflammation in the meibomian glands, the ones that secrete mucous to help keep the eyes lubricated.

Makeup can block these glands and predispose someone to hordeola. Hordeola are treated with warm compresses and sometimes by an eye specialist, with a combination of antibiotic drops and topical steroids. Drainage by an ophthalmologist is necessary if it doesn’t get better within one to two weeks. If the infection gets into the skin around the eye, it may need oral antibiotics. A chalazion is not an infection. It’s a usually painless rubbery mass in the eyelid. A chalazion can be a complication of a hordeolum, since the glands are blocked by inflammation, leading to thickened secretions from the gland. Since it’s not an infection, neither oral nor topical eye antibiotics are useful. These also usually get better with warm compresses over weeks to months. People with recurrent chalazia should be considered for biopsy, since they can turn out to be tumors in rare circumstances.

WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT DENTAL CLEANINGS WHILE WEARING BRACES

Consult with your dentist. Dental hygienists and dentists are experienced at cleaning teeth that have braces. Typical visits for routine cleanings will not be much different than visits without braces. The staff will take X-rays and conduct a thorough examination of the teeth. Hygienists know how to manipulate cleaning tools around braces to clean effectively. Very often, cavities can be filled and even root canals performed with braces on teeth, so there’s no need to worry. Should braces be in the way, the dentist can work with the orthodontist and have a bracket temporarily removed and replaced to facilitate treatment.

LOCAL FAMILY RAISES FUNDS FOR MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS

BY JODY LYNN GREER

Joseph Michael Eddinger was extremely outgoing and funloving. A natural born athlete, he started playing hockey at the age of ve. In high school, he played hockey with the Canandaigua Knights as well as hockey and lacrosse for the Canandaigua Braves. Passion for all things athletic seamlessly translated from hockey to lacrosse, taking him down a bright path at the University of Albany, where he excelled on the UAlbany Great Danes Lacrosse team. Sports opened a world that spoke to Joseph.

Joseph was not only a multi-sport athlete and enthusiast but also a cherished family member. Lovingly known as “Uncle So y,” Joseph had a special place in his heart for his niece and o en volunteered to watch her on weekends, a task few uncles volunteer for, but which Joseph was happy to take on.

“He wasn’t only my son; he was my best friend,” says Tim Eddinger, Joseph’s father. In July 2020, Joseph Michael Eddinger lost his young life to suicide.

Suicide plagues our local communities and a icts people nationwide. According to recent data from CDC.gov, suicide has a ected 54% of Americans in some way, and 90% of Americans who have lost their lives due to suicide had a diagnosable mental condition at the time of their death.

e Suicide Prevention Coalition of Ontario County in Victor, NY, in association with the Ontario County Partnership, hopes to address misconceptions about mental health and open lines of local communication.

Executive Director Tracey Dello Stritto says, “We have really worked hard to address needs in communities that don’t have access to mental support.” e Coalition maintains o ces in Canandaigua, Geneva, and Naples, o ering free therapy and other services. Stritto says, “[We] are trying to strategically look at the county, the community and the need, and address that. We really want to reduce the barrier of cost and reduce the barrier of transportation. Solution-focused free therapy is what we o er through this program. Our licensed counselors work with [individuals] to identify tools for patients to have in their ‘toolbox’. ”

e community support center also o ers activities that address physical and mental health, Stritto says as the need to connect is vital as human beings, Stritto says. e Ontario County Partnership creates unique traditional and nontraditional therapy opportunities for individuals and families. Ever-expanding, they continually look for new ways to reach those who need them most, and the Partnership feels collaboration on a local level is crucial.

Stritto emphasizes the combination of formal therapy with opportunities for community togetherness. For example, they coordinate with a local art gallery for an activity where the focus is simply coming to be together. e Partnership also formed a post-pandemic group focusing on encouraging people to come socialize. e Partnership also focuses on opportunities for youth to connect, such as the “Letters and Lattes” program that helps young people explore their creativity through youth-selected art projects.

e inaugural Joseph “Edge” Eddinger memorial golf tournament kicked o last year at Ravenwood Golf Course in Victor, NY. e tournament received overwhelming response from the community and over y sponsors, a turnout tting for Joseph, for whom “community and family meant everything” his father says. Last year’s event raised $20,000 in proceeds, which Tim and Jessica Eddinger gi ed to the Suicide Prevention Coalition of Ontario in association with the Ontario County Partnership.

Support begins at the grassroots level, and the Eddingers recognize that community engagement makes an enormous impact for those struggling with depression and anxiety, or for those who simply need someone to listen. ough nothing can replace the loss of a loved one, the Eddinger family, with organizations such as the Suicide Prevention Coalition of Ontario County, hope to increase mental health awareness. “If we could just save one life it will be worth it,” Tim Eddinger says.

Tournament will take place at Blue Heron Hills Golf Course in Macedon, NY Friday, August 18, 2023.

SENIOR NEWS

By Matilda Charles Covid ... It’s Still Here

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the number of Covid cases has steadily risen since December. Earlier in the fall, Covid took a short break while the u and RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) made it to center stage. ose illnesses are now waning a bit, and here comes Covid again.

It doesn’t help that we have a new variant -- an o shoot of Omicron, the XBB.1.5 -- taking o around the country. By Christmas nearly half the cases of Covid were that new variant, so it’s growing.

Seniors, as usual, are being hit hard with those in the age 70+ range being the largest group a ected, followed by ages 60-69.

If you’re hesitant to go back to being extremely careful, we’re experiencing what some doctors are calling the Senior Wave. It means the numbers on a graph show that the largest group a ected with hospitalizations are seniors.

Which means it’s still not time to let down our guard. If anything, it means renewing our e orts to stay safe. Frequent handwashing, wearing a mask in the store, even if you’re the only one who is, staying out of large groups ... we know how to do this.

And like it or not, we should. e growing number of seniors being hospitalized or dying due to Covid should shake up all of us.

Another, and possibly even more accurate, statistic for the spread of Covid is the wastewater. is is where municipalities test the sewage for Covid. People can hide their exposure and illness by using the at-home tests we all received in the mail, thereby skewing the “o cial” numbers, but the sewage in an area is sure to be more accurate.

To see the wastewater data by county, go online to CDC.gov and search for “National Wastewater Surveillance System” (NWSS).

STRANGE BUT TRUE

By Lucie Winborne

RESOLVE TO WEAR CLOTHES THAT FIT IN THE YEAR AHEAD

Bra measurements are hard to come by, no doubt thanks in part to the nature of getting measured in such an intimate area of the body. But considering undergarments set the foundation for all clothing worn on top, this is one of the more important measurements to verify. Enlist the help of a friend or family member to make measurements go more smoothly.

NOW HERE’S A TIP

By JoAnn Derson

* Toothpaste works well as a silver polish. Wet your silver, plop a little non-gel toothpaste on it and rub gently to clean. Rinse well and let it shine.

* A great hint from Mary R. of Duluth, Georgia: If the kids are drawing with felt markers and their hands get covered with ink, don’t worry. Just spray their hands down with hairspray, then wipe off the ink with a paper towel. Don’t forget to wash their hands afterward!

* Dip your toothbrush in baking soda before you add toothpaste when brushing your teeth. You get used to the taste, but the extra scrub really gets your teeth clean, and it’s very inexpensive to use. -- R.E. in Arizona

* Have clumped-up sugar in the canister? No worries. To keep sugar from hardening, add a slice of bread to the container from time to time, and leave it there a day before removing.

* Use this quick fix for oily hair. Rub a small amount of cornstarch into the oily areas of your hair. The cornstarch will soak up the dirt and oil; you just brush it out.

* A reader from Michigan wonders: How can I keep from having static head, especially when using a hat? The answer: You probably already have a tube of lip balm in your pocket or purse. Rub some on your palms, then run your palms over your hair.

* Aluminum is infinitely recyclable, with nearly 75% of all aluminum ever produced still in use today.

DID YOU KNOW? Strong communities are able to thrive thanks to the efforts of their residents, including those who give up their free time to volunteer with local charitable organizations. Though the impact of volunteers is often seen through the lens of the projects they help to initiate and complete, there’s no denying just how valuable volunteers are from an economic standpoint. In its 2018 “Volunteering in America Report,” AmeriCorps, an organization dedicated to strengthening communities and fostering civic engagement through service and volunteering, reported that Americans volunteered nearly 6.9 billion hours worth an estimated $167 billion in 2017. Volunteering figures to be even more valuable in the months and years ahead as towns, cities and countries look to recover from a global pandemic that claimed millions of lives and devastated economies big and small. As the world attempts to rebuild itself once the pandemic has ended,volunteers can play vital roles in reestablishing their communities. In fact, many people have already made that recognition. According to data from the professional social networking site LinkedIn, the site’s users had added more than 110,00 volunteer activities to their profiles between the early stages of the pandemic in 2020 and the end of summer 2020.

Parking area negligence

It is deplorable how many public buildings do not take care of handicap parking spots. Last year I had to quit physical therapy because you could not safely get from the car to the building. Their response “the landlord is responsible for clearing the parking lot and sidewalks.” I quit. Ff they were concerned for anyones well-being, they would address it………or was that job security for them? The handicap spots at the local senior center are never clear. They should be bone dry. I realize they cannot plow or salt when there are cars in the spots, but they should instruct their drivers to clear and salt before the center opens or after it closes. It is just common sense.

Thank you Guardian Angel!

Thank you to the gentleman who was in Geneseo Noyes Urgent Care on Saturday, January 14th. I had arrived for an X-ray but there was no order on file from the doctor. The receptionist suggested I go through urgent care who would then write a script. I was worried about the cost of taking that approach. The gentleman was sitting in the waiting room and spoke up that he would pay for my urgent care visit. I was amazed someone would be willing to do that. In the meantime, they were able to get ahold of my doctor and get the script. Regardless, I won’t forget the kindness a stranger was willing to give to me.

Purple Pony

I would just like to say thank you to The Genesee Valley Penny Saver for printing the wonderful article on Purple Pony. I had no idea they even existed. Horses are truly amazing, and to help with special needs of all ages tells a lot about these magnificent animals. Thank you, Purple Pony!

Response to "garbage plate modification"

I suppose it's none of my business how one modifies a garbage plate. While the modification of adding fish sticks to a plate with hot dogs and all the fixings is nothing short of, in my personal opinion, disgusting, I am more disturbed that someone is eating this every single day. Perhaps slowly adding in other lunches like salads and low-fat sandwiches would be beneficial to this person. As a medical professional, I see far too many people with garbage plate-related maladies in the greater Rochester area.

DIFFERENT WAYS TO HELP RESOLUTIONS STICK THIS YEAR

Get support or talk it out. Speaking about what you are going through and getting reassurance from other people can work wonders to strengthen resilience. When the desire to quit sneaks up, you can consult with a friend or consider a support group. For example, taking a group class at the gym may be a more effective motivational tool than working out solo.

DID YOU KNOW?

The terms “hospice” and “palliative” are not interchangeable. Hospice care is a form of palliative care geared toward patients with terminal illnesses facing their final months or weeks of life. Palliative care, according to WebMD, aims to ease pain and provide help to people confronting a serious illness, even if it’s not necessarily life-threatening. Palliative care may include assistance for those with cancer, kidney disease, multiple sclerosis, or any number of conditions. Illnesses can make it difficult to live life fully, and palliative care is used in conjunction with other treatments to improve quality of life.

WITH HELP FROM CHILE, BLUEBERRIES STAY FRESH ALL WINTER

They’re delicious, nutritious and versatile. They’re naturally fatfree, high in vitamin Cand a rich source of antioxidants.Americans love them in cereals, salads, saucesandastoppingsandbythe handful, but when winter comes around,manypeopleassumefresh blueberryseasonisover.

Notsofast.Whenthesnow fliesin Minneapolis, things are just heating up in places like Chile. Thanks to a robust South American fruit industry, fresh blueberries now maintain their favoredpositioninNorthAmerican produceaisles,culinarycreations, andhomekitchensallyearlong.

The popularity of blueberries has soared in recent years, driven by their impressive nutritional resume. One half-cup of blueberries contains just 42 calories and helps meet the recommended 5 to 9 servings a day of colorful fruits and vegetables. The “Little Blue Dynamos” pack in fiber, potassium, Vitamin C and more cancer-fighting antioxidants than either wine or green tea. Recent studies also show that fresh blueberries can help keep skin looking younger; help prevent dementia,Alzheimer’sdiseaseand heart disease; and serve as a naturalanti-inflammatory.

Helping the cause significantly is that most people consider fresh blueberries a treat, including children who remain blissfully unaware of the health benefits. Fresh blueberries are easily enjoyed as a grab-and-go snack, but there are other sweet and savory ways to beat the winter blueswiththissuperfood.

TIPS FOR REALIZING GOALS IN THE YEAR AHEAD

Expect setbacks. If realizing resolutions was easy, the success rate would be greater than 8 percent. Setbacks are inevitable, so don’t allow them to derail your efforts. Even if setbacks occur when you’re well on your way to success, regroup and get back on track without getting down on yourself.
