MY STORY the story of Stephanie Doggett

S

tefanie Doggett is living her dream. She was born in Shreveport, Louisiana, and lived in Logansport until she began elementary school. Stefanie said at that time her parents “crossed over the state line and made us Texans!”

Her early school years were spent attending Joaquin Schools, and she has “bled blue

ever since.” She met her husband, Mick at a friend’s home. At that time each of them had plans for their college. Stefanie did a year of classes at Panola College, and Mick had a scholarship at UT Arlington, to run track. Although she had already planned to attend classes at LSU, she changed her mind at the last minute and headed to Arlington as well to be closer to Mick. As much as she enjoyed the shopping opportunities in Dallas, she missed her pastures, cows, and dirt roads that was so much a part of her growing up. Stefanie and Mick were married in 2003. In 2006, they had the” prettiest baby boy that I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen lots of babies”.According to Stefanie, “Tanor Case was September - October 2018 |

pure perfection and mostly still is!” A couple of years later, they had another son, Morgan Ross, who “rocked our world in 2008, and has every day since. He was my sweet, angel baby and is the biggest momma’s boy (and by biggest, I’m talking almost 10 lbs big) His rolls went on for days and they were the best kissing spots, ever.” Not too much later, they had Finlee Astyn, who “snuck in like Houdini.” As a labor and delivery nurse for years Stefanie never realized that she was pregnant. She thought she had the flu for weeks. Thankfully, she was working with wonderful nurses who realized what was going on long before she did! She had a bad case of denial going on but “Stefanie said Finlee was the best blessing ever. “God is so good and gives us the desires of our hearts even when we don’t realize we need them!” Prior to her current job of as labor and delivery nurse at Nacogdoches Medical Center, Stefanie worked out-patient surgeries, including plastic surgery patients. But, for the past twelve years, she feels she has the most rewarding job ever. Labor and delivery nurses bond with the their patients, unlike other nurse/ patient relationships, sharing a couple’s biggest day as they bring a child into the world. Some of the patients are seen as early as twenty weeks, and by the delivery time, they know all of the family members, including grandparents, their pastors, and the theme of the babies’

BOO’S BATTLE FUND helping a true fighter

F

ebruary 16, 2015 was a test of faith for Brandi Millis from Joaquin, Texas. As a mother of two young children, her doctor’s visit brought words that no one wants to hear. She had cancer. Brandi had been feeling a lot of pain in her breast. She had a large knot that had been swollen and very painful. Trying to treat what was originally thought to be mastitis, Brandi had seen several physicians who had prescribed various rounds of antibiotics. With no improvement in her condition after several months of treatments, she made an appointment with Mr. Mike Belgard at Hope Community Medicine in Center, Texas. Because of a lack of health insurance, Brandi wanted to be treated with more antibiotics, but Mr. Mike was not so sure that she had mastitis, and wanted to run some tests. She returned after a couple of days of additional antibiotics and no improvement, and he sent her for further testing. When her results were returned to the office, Brandi was given the news. She was in Stage 4 cancer. As a mother of little ones, she did not want to leave her children to have treatments somewhere else. She also was concerned about the amount of time she would need to be away from her job at a local nursing home. According to Brandi’s mother, Celeste Lewis, she said her daughter decided to take her treatments close to home. “Looking back now, I wish we would have just gone off for treatment,” Celeste said. Over a course of sixty-five rounds of chemo, fifty-four rounds of radiation, and twenty-eight long months of fighting, Brandi gained her angel wings on June 27, 2017. One of the last things Brandi told her mother, Celeste, was “I am ready, Mama; whatever the Lord decides, I am at peace.” These words from her young daughter gave her comfort, something that many people never get a chance to hear from their loved ones. Brandi is survived by her two boys, Hunter and Henley, her mother, Celeste, and her father, Harold, “Bubba” Lewis, a sister, Amanda Lewis Kirby, September - October 2018 |

and a brother, Justin Lewis, all of Joaquin. In Brandi’s honor, the family has established fund raisers throughout the year to go to a fund called “Boo’s Battle Fund.” The money raised is set aside to help local people in Shelby County with the same problems Brandi faced with the rising cost of medical expenses. The Lewis family knows they can’t help everyone, but there are families who will suffer things like they did, and they would like to help as much as they can. Although many fundraisers don’t always stay to help local families, “Boo’s Battle Fund” can be counted on to be dispersed to those needing assistance here in Shelby County.

OCTOBER IS FINANCIAL PLANNING MONTH: c h e c k a n d m a k e s u r e y o u h a v e n’ t m a d e a n y o f these financial mistakes throughout the years!

A

s people move through different stages of life, there are new financial opportunities — and potential pitfalls — around every corner. Have you made any of these mistakes?

Your 20s

1. Living beyond your means. It’s tempting to splurge on gadgets, entertainment, and travel, but if you can’t pay for most of your wants up front, then you need to rein in your lifestyle, especially if you have student loans to repay. 2. Not paying yourself first. Save a portion of every paycheck first and then spend what’s left over, not the other way around. And why not start saving for retirement, too? Earmark a portion of your annual pay now for retirement and your 67-year-old self will thank you. 3. Being financially illiterate. Learn as much as you can about saving, budgeting, and investing now and you could benefit from it for the rest of your life.

to start saving for retirement. Start now, and you still have 30 years or more to save. Wait much longer, and it can be very hard to catch up. 3. Not protecting yourself with life and disability insurance. Life is unpredictable. Consider what would happen if one day you were unable to work and earn a paycheck. Life and disability insurance can help protect you and your family. Though the cost and availability of life insurance will depend on several factors including your health and age. Generally the younger you are when you buy life insurance, the lower your premiums will be.

Your 40s

1. Trying to keep up with the Joneses. Appearances can be deceptive. The nice lifestyle your friends, neighbors, or colleagues enjoy might look nice on the outside, but behind the scenes there may be a lot of debt supporting that lifestyle. Don’t spend money you don’t have trying to keep up with others.

Your 30s

1. Being house poor. Whether you’re buying your first home or trading up, think twice about buying a house you can’t afford, even if the bank says you can. Build in some wiggle room for a possible dip in household income that could result from leaving the workforce to raise a family or a job change or layoff.

2. Funding college over retirement. In your 40s, saving for your children’s college costs at the expense of your own retirement may be a mistake. If you have limited funds, consider setting aside a portion for college while earmarking the majority for retirement. Then sit down with your teenager and have a frank discussion about college options that won’t break the bank — for either of you.

2. Not saving for retirement. Maybe your 20s passed you by in a bit of a blur and retirement wasn’t even on your radar. But now that you’re in your 30s, it’s essential

3. Not having a will or an advance medical directive. No one likes to think about death or catastrophic injury, but these documents can help your loved ones

immensely if something unexpected should happen to you.

Your 50s and 60s

1. Raiding your home equity or retirement funds. It goes without saying that doing so will prolong your debt and/or reduce your nest egg. 2. Not quantifying your expected retirement income. As you near retirement, you should know how much money you (and your spouse, if applicable) can expect from three sources: • Your retirement accounts such as 401(k) plans, 403(b) plans, and IRAs • Pension income from your employer, if any • Social Security (at age 62, at your full retirement age, and at age 70) 3. Co-signing loans for adult children. Co-signing means you’re 100% on the hook if your child can’t pay, a less-than-ideal situation as you’re getting ready to retire. 4. Living an unhealthy lifestyle. Take steps now to improve your diet and fitness level. Not only will you feel better today, but you may reduce your health-care costs in the future.. J.

PRECIOUS p i ne g r o v e s s w eet e s t “em p l o y ee”

A

nimal lover? Then this is the article for you! I visited with one of Pine Grove’s finest “Ms. Precious.” I can see your face now. Reading this sentence and looking at the pictures below, you are most likely wondering what I am talking about. After Spending some time visiting with Mrs. Kellie, Jean Baty, and Julie Harbison at the nursing home and then doing some research, I am convinced that maybe, just maybe, there are supporting reasons behind therapy dogs. Mrs. Kellie is a Licensed hair stylist that has been doing hair for 34 years and has dedicated her time to go to Pine Grove and assist the elderly patients in the nursing home with their hair and nails. “Precious “came into the picture when she was given to Mrs. Kellie from a teacher she had in high school. P Precious and Kellie have been inseparable since. Precious, the dog, spends her Tuesday & Wednesday afternoons with Mrs. Kellie at the nursing home loving on the ladies and men there, letting them hold her, while they sing to her and pet her. She is treated like a baby, and the residents think the world of this little Boston terrier.

After watching the interaction between Precious and the patients, I completely understand why they say that dogs are great therapy. Researching some of the benefits of having a pet for elderly patients, I found it makes perfect sense. According to Google, elderly people who often live alone or in group facilities can benefit by having pets around. The pets can help reduce stress, lower blood pressure, increase social interaction and physical activity, and help them learn. The number of therapy pets welcomed into care facilities have increased over the past few years, with more care homes introducing pet therapy than ever before. If you are ever in Pine Grove on a Tuesday & Wednesday, stop by the beauty shop and meet Precious. If you miss her there, you may find her walking down the halls visiting her patients. Precious is great medicine!

outdoor retreat

THOSE KATIE IDEAS DIY

Take it outside! I love fall, as clique as it sounds its by far my favorite time of year. I love to have gatherings with family & friends. As, much as I have loved outdoor tables and space for gatherings. I have just never had the room. Until this year! With a large yard I’m finally ready to take it outside this fall! • Magnolia Leaves • Red pears • Some clippings from a juniper tree behind my house • Beeswax candles ( other candles give me a headache so I buy these at the farmers market, they smell great & I like the golden color) • Cozy pillows • Blankets & cute container to set them in • Outdoor rug (in my case- tired indoor turned outdoor rug)

June - August 2018 |

Things I always have on hand.

• Wood stumps- My husband cut these cedar ones for our wedding and we just decided to keep them all. I have used them for so many parties and events. • Magnolia Garland- It’s hard to see, but I bought a great magnolia garland and usually keep it laid across my dining table. In this case though, I cut some fresh magnolia leaves and just filled it in, the bottom gave it more volume. • Horns- I love deer horns… (I did not kill any of these deer myself). I keep them in my house all year, but am especially fond of them for decorating in fall & winter seasons. • Fruit- Okay, I did buy these gorgeous red pears for this table. They are a great price, and if a guests getsa hankering... there ya go they can eat the centerpiece (haha)! I like decorating with lenons, oranges, apples and of course pumpkins ( I was shocked they are in the fruit family)as well.

MAKE UP WITH BRITNEY make up tips

My name is Brittney Griffith and I’m a lover of all things makeup. I work at Cor Boutique but I also do makeup on the side. I started with prom makeup in 2017 because a friend wanted me to paint her face and then my makeup business just grew from there by word of mouth. Nothing makes me feel better than making someone else feel more confident and beautiful.

Make up tip for the month If you don’t have time for eyeshadow but also don’t want to just leave your eyes blank simply take a large blending brush and the bronzer you used and brush it in the crease and under your eye. Then add mascara and lashes and you instantly look put together and like you spent more time on your makeup than you actually did!
