Things are Reopening, But We Still Must Remain Vigilant

O

n March 27th, Broward County issued its Shelter-in-Place order, effectively closing restaurants, sporting venues, parks, stores, gyms, and virtually every other public gathering place around. We were encouraged to stay at home. And, for the most part, that is exactly what we all did. Businesses temporarily closed, play-dates were canceled, dentist visits postponed, in-person visits with grandparents were suspended and birthday parties were moved online.

As a community, we should be proud. South Florida went from being seen as the next “hot spot,” for the Coronavirus, to an area where the outbreak was largely contained. This was no small feat for a region that welcomes so many visitors from all around the world.

Now things are reopening.

To protect our lives and the economy, each of us must continue to do some common sense things to make sure the virus stays in check. If you don’t feel well, stay at home. Continue to wash your hands several times a day and whenever you go out. Limit close interpersonal contact when possible. Routinely clean things people frequently touch like doorknobs, steering wheels, and countertops. And, if you must interact with multiple people or cannot physically distance yourself, please continue to wear a mask.

If we are smart and responsible, we will be able to get a large part of our daily routines back while a vaccine is being developed. We owe it to ourselves, our children, and our loved ones to do what we can to prevent another shut-down.

The hard part is over, now it’s time for us all to follow-through and kick COVID’s butt!

Sincerely,

Christy & Terry Jaillet

HEALTH & WELLNESS

Top 10 Ways to Stay Connected to Your Older Loved Ones During Quarantine

W

ith seniors at most risk to catch and become ill from Coronavirus, Lisa Cini, aging expert and author of BOOM: The Baby Boomers Guide to Leveraging Technology, so that you can Preserve Your Independent Lifestyle & Thrive provides her top tricks to stay connected to your loved ones at this time. “It’s much more than the occasional phone call,” says Cini. “There are so many options to both stay connected and feel loved during this time. What can seem divisive can often pull people closer together.”

Find Lisa’s top tips below: 1. Set up check-in times that are convenient for everyone. You can do this with Skype, Facetime, Zoom, Loop, WhatsApp, & WeChat. If possible, do a video call as it’s better to see a smile and easier for those with hearing loss.

2. Set up a group text with your family. This is great fun and keeps you all connected and in the loop.

3. If they have a wellness device (Fitbit, Garmin, Apple watch, Kardia, etc.), share their wellness data, and set up alert notifications. This will help to stop worrying and also give your loved one a nudge if they haven’t been active enough.

4. Set up a time to do a 10-minute group exercise,

even if its only chair exercising. It will help to keep the blood flowing, which improves brain function, reduces depression, and improves the immune system.

5. Game together! Words with friends and online video games (AARP has tons) are great to show your competitive side. Games can be as simple as tic tac toe or building entire cities with Minecraft or doing a flight simulator.

6. Create a watch party for your favorite tv shows or movies and group text, video chat, or message on Facebook.

7. Write a handwritten note or card. It’s not done much anymore, and it will remind them of a much simpler time beyond electronics.

8. Interview them with questions about their childhood and early 20’s.

9. No one wants to eat alone, so video chat during

meals! Creating a virtual “family dining” experience where everyone can share their day, laugh, and reconnect is a great mood booster.

10. Choose a book to read together and discuss it twice a week.

BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT

Your CBD Store Opens New Location in Hollywood

BY JOHN DUKA

N

ational CBD retailer Your CBD Store® announced today that the company has opened a new store in Hollywood. In less than two years, Your CBD Store® retailers have created the world’s largest brick and mortar CBD retailer, with over 600 locations in 40 states. Founded with an emphasis on education and community, Your CBD Store® has grown by educating customers about

misconceptions regarding its hemp-derived products.

The company expects to have over 1,000 stores across the US by the end of 2020.

Each CBD Store offers a comfortable and inviting environment where guests can learn about CBD, try samples, and feel empowered to make a confident choice on the best cannabinoid formulation option for them.

There organic growth and dedication to bettering the community through transparent product information from high-quality premium product lines, backed by third-party laboratory testing makes CBD’s products stand apart.

“We are not just another retail chain. We are a community of store owners who truly care and are educating CBD consumers around the nation,” said Hollywood founder, XXX YYY. Cannabidiol, better known as CBD, maybe one of the most broadly therapeutic plan extracts of our time. It comes from the cannabis Sativa plant. The CBD at Your CBD Store, however, does not come from the USDA defined marijuana plant, rather it comes from “industrial hemp.” This distinction is what makes the extract legal as well as differences in medical applications.

Along with its lengthy list of therapeutic properties, CBD has the backing of many in the medical community, including the World Health Organization, the nursing community, and even many veterinarians.

All of the CBD products offered at Your CBD Store are 100% free of THC and use a special CO2 extraction process that eliminates the need for any chemical solvents.

Your CBD Store® is located in the Park Sheridan West shopping center, 3391 Sheridan Street. They welcome the public to stop in to learn more about CBD and to sample products. They can be reached at 754-201-1667

MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR

Greetings To Our City Hollywood Readers,

BY MAYOR JOSH LEVY I hope this column finds you and your family doing well considering the circumstances we continue to contend with in response to the COVID-19 coronavirus.

Our city has been under a declared State of Emergency since March 11, 2020. On March 22nd, after beaches throughout South Florida were forced to close, Broward County issued an emergency order limiting business activity to only those business sectors deemed “essential” pursuant to federal guidelines. On March 27th, our City issued a “Safer-At-Home” Order, and numerous State and County orders have since followed, leading us to where we are as of this writing, with the County issuing an order enabling the “Phase 1” reopening of many workplaces and our economy. Gatherings of more than 10 people are still limited, so schools, gyms, theaters, bars, nightclubs, and other venues remain closed. Hotels are still under restrictions, and Houses of Worship continue to withhold the physical gathering of their congregations.

There are many more lasting impacts of this public health emergency, and every member of the community remains a part of what we’ll still need to do to continue protecting ourselves from the spread of this virus. A “new normal” is perhaps the best way to describe what we’ll be dealing with in the weeks and months ahead. Wearing facial coverings, taking extra care to protect senior citizens, complying with workplace and business capacity, and spacing limitations and more will be a continuing part of everyday life.

Despite all this, one thing we learned for sure is that in a time of need, our community is here for one another. Medical workers attended to their patients

despite their risk of contracting the virus. Businesses, individuals, community groups and service clubs such as the Hollywood Lions Club, the Rotary Club of Hollywood and many others stepped up with donations to those in need and on the front lines. Personal protective equipment was donated to the doctors, nurses, and first responders at Memorial Healthcare System, Hollywood Police Department, and Hollywood Fire-Rescue. Thousands of pounds of food was donated and distributed to the public by community non-profits including Community Enhancement Collaboration, Inc. and Liberia Economic & Social, Inc. Churches gathered and shared food with the needy and the homeless. And our city government organized a still-running food distribution in partnership with Feeding South Florida and the Florida Department of Transportation. All these demonstrations of community goodwill are just a part of how we cared for one another. In the weeks ahead, I know this will continue as many of us get back to being able to earn a living.

Our city government, all our staff, myself, our city commissioners, together with our county, state, and federal representatives will continue to make sure government can be as helpful as it can be to help get people back on their feet from the disruption this virus is causing. Please make sure to check our city’s website for all the latest updates. www.hollywoodfl.org Our deepest condolences go out to those who lost loved ones to COVID-19. By continuing to care for one another and continuing to adhere to the recommended protective measures, we will get through this as best we can.

Managing Mental Health During COVID-19 Telemedicine Can Help

BY NANCY EAGLETON any people are understandably feeling anxious and stressed during this COVID19 pandemic. It is valid to want to talk to someone, says Rachel Rohaidy, M.D., a psychiatrist with Baptist Health South Florida, and yet social distancing has created barriers to obtaining support from family, friends and coworkers. If left untreated, anxiety and depression can worsen and have long-term effects on your health. The good news is, mental health counseling is more accessible, convenient and affordable than ever before, thanks to telemedicine.

M

It’s Mental Health Awareness Month and this year’s campaign, You Are Not Alone, reminds people that now, more than ever, the mental health community is coming together to make connection possible during a climate of physical distancing.

THE DONOWAY CENTER NEW HOPE FOR PANCREATIC CANCER PATIENTS Patients diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer have few treatment options. However, a new procedure called Irreversible Electroporation or IRE for short has changed that for many patients who are seeing a doubling and tripling of their life expectancies. Dr. Robert Donoway, who has one of the largest International experiences for performing this procedure on the pancreas and liver is a Hollywood based, Sloan Kettering trained Pancreatic Surgical Oncologist, and former medical director of two of the local cancer programs remains among a very small handful of Pancreatic surgeons who perform the procedure which is done in the operating room as an outpatient.

Robert B. Donoway, M.D., F.A.C.S., F.S.S.O. Diplomate American Board of Surgery Diplomate, Society of Surgical Oncology Former Medical Director Memorial Cancer Center Medical Director, Atlas Oncology: Institute for Pancreatic Cancer IRE/NanoKnife Ablation

During the procedure, Dr. Donoway places fine needle probes under direct ultrasound guidance into and around the pancreatic tumor while carefully avoiding critical structures. High voltage current up to 3000 volts is then delivered in 90-microsecond pulses synchronized with the patient’s heart rhythm to avoid any cardiac problems.

The pulses destroy the cancer cell membranes which then causes the tumor to die and be absorbed by the body. The average procedure lasts approximately 1-2 hours and the patients may be discharged the following day. A brief recovery means the patient can start chemotherapy and radiation that much sooner.

Dr. Donoway is participating in several clinical studies identifying the best chemotherapy and immunotherapies to be used along with IRE. Dr. Donoway states, “The results so far have been very encouraging and we have begun using it for other select cancers. The longest survivors are now out over 5 years and without evidence of cancer recurrence. In the past, without IRE they would have been likely to have only lived a year and so this technique opens the whole new avenue for treating those eligible patients in a more targeted fashion.”

Five Fun Games to Keep You and Your Family Active and Entertained

K

eeping your family happy, active, and entertained is a hard task in this day and age. With technology and screens as most kids’ go-to entertainment, parents need a fresh and entertaining way to keep their kids outdoors and active. Our City Media has gathered five of our favorite outdoor games to share with you.

3. Corn Hole- If you grew up in the South, then you have probably played a game or two of Corn Hole.

The picnic, poolside, and tailgating classic is loved by millions. Players take turns throwing 16-ounce bags of corn kernels at a raised platform with a hole in the far end. The platforms are frequently decorated in a family’s favorite team or college colors. We got ours at www.allamericantailgate.com unfinished and we customized it to our liking (another fun family project). NCAA regulationsized boards retail from $110 to $250 depending on how fancy you want it.

1.

Rollors- Offers family fun for all ages. Kids spend hours outdoors perfecting their game. The game is like a combination of Bocce Ball and Horseshoes. Each player has a chance to show off their skill as they roll wooden discs to the opposing goal post.

Points are awarded based on where and how the discs land. Each game comes packaged in a handy carrying case, making it easy to bring to the park or the beach. www.rollors.com MSRP $49.95

2. CROSSNET - Have you ever imagined combining two of your favorite childhood games? Crossnet does just that! Four square merges with volleyball for an entirely new game! Our families loved the competition. Crossnet can be played indoors or out and takes just minutes to set up on grass, sand, or a gym floor! Adjustable heights make it great for all ages! available on www. crossnetgame.com MSRP $149.99 26 MAY/JUNE 2020 | OUR CITY HOLLYWOOD | OURCITYMEDIA.COM

4.

Spike Ball- Some say that if volleyball and foursquare had a baby it’d be named Spikeball. Spikeball is our family’s goto for lawn and beach fun. It is so popular, that there are now 100s of “round net” tournaments worldwide. www.spikeball.com Kits start at $59.99 5. Wiffle Ballmay be America’s original backyard pastime. Similar to baseball/softball this classic game is great for small groups, yards of almost any size or shape, and a whole bunch of trash talk. A bat and ball combo can be purchased for under $5.00 making this fun family game a steal. www.wiffle.com Starting at $5

Miami Dolphin’s WR Albert Wilson and His Foundation Raise Funds,Food and Critical Life Needs to Support Broward County Children in Foster Care

T

he Albert Wilson Foundation, founded by Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson to enrich the lives of children in foster care, today announced its ongoing efforts and campaign to support HANDY (Helping Abused Neglected Disadvantaged Youth) with crisis relief during the COVID-19 pandemic. The 10-week campaign, which began on March 30, will run through June 7, 2020.

At the halfway point of the campaign, through its fundraising efforts, The Albert Wilson Foundation has provided HANDY youth and its caretakers with 550 meals, job opportunities and raised more than $10,000 to directly benefit HANDY youth and families.

While this is a difficult time for everyone, the hardship for those in foster and relative/nonrelative care associated with the child dependency system, are especially severe. During the past month, 75% of HANDY youth and their caretakers have lost their

jobs. Many of these families were already living paycheck-to-paycheck and were teetering on the edge of homeless prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Now, these families have no idea how to pay for life essentials such as rent and food.

“COVID-19 has caused an unprecedented and unmeasurable amount of hardship and loss throughout the world. As we enter May, which is National Foster Care Awareness month, The Albert Wilson Foundation hopes to shine a light on the often overlooked foster community and will continue to do its part to provide relief and support during these trying times,” said Jamaal May, Executive Director of The Albert Wilson Foundation. “It is our privilege to support and work in conjunction with HANDY and its great organization during this pandemic.”

The Albert Wilson Foundation has received substantial cash donations from the Miami Dolphins organization, Jägermeister USA on behalf of YesJulz’s Little Rascals Foundation and Broward County Clerk of Courts, which will go directly towards The Albert Wilson Foundation campaign that benefits HANDY. Additionally, through The Albert Wilson Foundation, Fit Fixins, a healthy food and lifestyle meal prep business based in Port St. Lucie, has generously donated 300 meals to HANDY families, a value of more than $3,000. Also, the Phoenix Organization, which is a franchisee that owns and operates more than 31 Burger King’s, Taco Bell’s, and Denny’s in Broward County has donated 250

value meals and extended special consideration for employment opportunities for HANDY youth over the age of 16 and their caretakers. ESPN Radio West Palm Beach 106.3 FM is also running donated, promotional spots twice daily through the end of the campaign to help raise awareness.

To make a tax-exempt donation to The Albert Wilson Foundation, visit: https://albertwilsonfoundation.org/donation/. All donations received through Sunday, June 7, will directly benefit HANDY South Florida.

About The Albert Wilson Foundation The Albert Wilson Foundation is a charity founded by Miami Dolphins WR Albert Wilson to enrich the lives of children in foster care. The Albert Wilson Foundation strives to change the destiny of foster children and break the cycle of abuse, neglect, and abandonment. It works to support youth during their transition in and out of foster care. Its goal is to provide scholarships to those wishing to continue their education outside the state of Florida, in addition to rewarding youth who continue to excel in the classroom and extracurriculars, despite all obstacles and circumstances. For more information visit http://www.albertwilsonfoundation.org.

About HANDY HANDY, which stands for Helping Abused Neglected Disadvantaged Youth, is an award-winning 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization. Founded in 1985, HANDY has met the needs of more than 45,000 Broward County children in foster and relative/nonrelative care associated with the child dependency system. HANDY’s mission is to achieve positive, lasting change for youth by providing life skills, education and a supportive community.

Although they already live in the warmth of sunny South Florida, they spent their vacation with family and friends in the tropical climate of Panama City. The adventurous family visited rainforests, museums, old town, and the mall, but they loved the secluded beaches best of all.
