THIS WEEK’S REVIEW Welcome to The Rim Review. This week’s feature expands on the theme of the cover story in the Nov. 21 edition of The Rim Review — events to keep in mind for the holiday season. This year, make some time to take in some music. The cover story in this edition highlights the many special music programs being planned in the community during the holidays. See if one or two won’t fit into your “to do” list.
Elsewhere, historian Stan Brown writes about the Chediski people who made the fire-ravaged country their home before it was destroyed. See some of the attractions of Branson, Mo. in Ken Brooks’ Travel Talk column. The food feature in this edition has some quick cooking ideas to streamline dinners during this busy time of year. Andy McKinney tells us what he thinks of the new Denzel Washington film,
“Flight,” in his movie review column. Returning to the Review after a long absence is a photo page. The subject: the adorable pets that visited Pine Country Animal Clinic Nov. 17 for holiday pictures.

Cassettes for Vets The Marine Corps League of Tonto Basin has started a donation program for the Veterans Hospital in Phoenix: “Cassettes for Vets.” The Marine Corps League of Tonto Basin started by donating 100 combo AM/FM stereo radio with tape players (Walkman type) with headphones to give to the veterans at Phoenix Veterans Hospital. This is a great place to donate those “hang around tapes” for a great cause. The vets really go for country/western, popular, and the oldies. Many vets are unable to read due to disabilities, so the “books on tapes” are also a real blessing. To date, the Marine Corps League of Tonto Basin has donated more than 1,000 tapes to the Arizona Veterans Nursing Home on North 3rd Street, behind the Vet’s Hospital. If you would like to donate tapes to the veterans, please drop them at the Payson Roundup or call Mike Milburn, (928) 478-4027, for pick up.

JILL JACKSON’S HOLLYWOOD | TONY RIZZO
Stallone busy with several projects HOLLYWOOD — Now that George Lucas has turned over his brainchild, “Star Wars,” to Disney, plans are moving full-speed ahead for Star Wars: 7, 8 and 9. “Star Wars: VII” begins 20 to 40 years after the end of “Return of the Jedi.” R2-D2 and C-3PO would be the only characters continuing through all nine films, though talks have begun with Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher to return as Hans Solo, Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia (respectively), in their 60s and 70s. Eventually, Hamill’s Luke would hand off his light saber to the next Sylvester Stallone new hope, as Obi-Wan did to him in the original “Star Wars.” In more sci-fi news, Mark Walberg is replacing Shia LaBeouf (star of the first three “Transformers”) in “Transformers 4.” It will pick up four years after the “Dark of the Moon” and is a “total reboot” with a new cast. Director Michael Bay is close to signing “Weeds” co-star Hunter Parrish to fill the gap left by Josh Duhamel. Sylvester Stallone is moving faster than a speeding bullet. His film “Bullet to the Head” with Christian Slater and “Game of Thrones” star Jason Momoa was well reviewed at the Rome Film Fest, but won’t be released until Feb.
1. “The Tomb” pits Stallone against Arnold Schwarzenegger, with Jim Caviezel, Sam Neill and rapper 50 Cent (out September 2013), and “Grudge Match,” which seems like Rocky meets Raging Bull, has Stallone boxing Robert DeNiro. Unfortunately, it’s not due out until 2016. Stallone is currently in Los Angeles, being directed by his “Cobra” co-star John Herzfeld in “Reach Me,” with “Moonstruck’s” Danny Aiello, “Hung’s” Thomas Jane, “Princess Bride’s” Cary Elwes, “The Closer’s” Kyra Sedgewick, recent “Hatfields & McCoys” Emmy-winner Tom Berenger, and rapper Nelly. Sounds like something for everyone. And speaking of Schwarzenegger, his autobiography may have flopped, but he’s already filmed “Last Stand,” “The Tomb” and “Breacher,” and has “Captive,” “Unknown Soldier” and “Triplets: The Eve of Never” (a sequel to “Twins”) in various stages of pre-production, as well as a new comic book, “The Governator.” He’s not just “Back” ... he’s “Back” with a vengeance! You knew it had to happen ... the first sequel of “The Avengers” (the No. 3 all-time box-office champ) is headed for ABC. Josh Whedon — who wrote and directed “The Avengers” and gave us “Buffy,” “Angel,” “Firefly,” “Serenity” and this year’s “Cabin in the Woods” — is helming “S.H.I.E.L.D.,” which stands for “Strategic Hazard Intervention Espionage Logistic Directorate.” Elizabeth Henstridge and Iain De Caestecker are set to star.

TRAVEL TALK | KEN BROOKS
The live entertainment capital of the world If somebody asked you, “What is the entertainment capital of the world?” — you would probably answer Las Vegas or New York City. The correct answer is Branson, Mo. Branson boasts 100 live theatres and 125 hotels and motels along with resorts. What is there to do there? Branson has golf, lakes, shopping, spas, and visitors can KEN BROOKS see as many as three live shows in one day. You can hear pop, rock ’n’ roll, country, gospel, Broadway, patriotic, big band, swing, bluegrass, jazz and more. You can see and enjoy comedy shows, tribute shows that remind you of great stars such as Elvis, Shania Twain, The Blues Brothers, Alan Jackson, The Temptations and George Strait. For theater reservations phone: 1-800-590-0155 or go to www.bransonshows.com. The Jim Stafford show is always a hit featuring family fun full of incredible guitar pickin’, hilarious comedy, Jim’s hit songs like “Spiders & Snakes” and “Cow Patti” and surprise twists. The city of Branson was born in the early 1800s on a broad plain along the White River, just south of its confluence with Roark Creek. Buildings and roads eventually overtook the flood plain, as the city grew westward up a gradually sloping ridge, creating what is now Branson’s Historic Downtown District. The waters of Lake Taneycomo tamed the sometimes-temperamental White River in 1913 and it is now a patchwork of parks, campgrounds, shops and restaurants that line the waterfront and form a thriving shopping district. Branson is located in the middle of the Ozarks with mountain and lake scenery. If you get there early enough, the area will be in ablaze of autumn colors of red, brown, beige, yellow and green and the weather will be much more temperate than in the summer. It is said that Branson has more theatre seats than the population of the year-round residents in the city. It is also the fastest growing live student performance town with student groups doing their thing on stage at many of the shows. Some come in packaged tours with teacher escorts during school breaks. There is also the Roy Rogers Jr. Show featuring some of the family of Dale and Roy, as well as Mickey Gilley, Marty Stuart, Opry Legends with Little Jimmy Dickens & Friends, Lee Greenwood and Louise Mandrell, and on it goes. Some of the other attractions in and around Branson include the Paddle Wheeler boat “Branson Belle” and IMAX theatre, family fun parks, Adventure Ziplines, Waltzing Waters, parasailing on the nearby lakes, fishing, Butterfly Palace & Rainforest Adventure, Castle of Chaos, Dinosaur Museum, Canyon Nature Tram Rides, horseback riding, Haunted House & Monster Asylum, Hollywood Wax Museum, Kayaking, Kindwedel Wine Gardens, helicopter rides, white water rafting, and lake cruises and even this is not all. If you are like me, you like trains. The Branson Scenic Railway operates until mid-December using classic streamlined engines and rail cars of the 1950s. They also operate a dinner train on Saturdays. Phone 1-800-2-train2. The train is named the Ozark Zephyr. You could also rent a houseboat and enjoy time with the family on the lakes. At night, cram all the shows possible in the evenings you have. The Branson Chamber of Commerce is located at 269 State Highway 248, Branson, MO 65616, phone 1800-Branson or go to explorebranson.com. Packages and lodging may be reserved by dealing 1-800-785-1550. Many visitors come to Branson just for the shows and pack in as many as they possibly can within their time limits. You can attend shows in the morning, af-

ternoon and evening. They are not as expensive as those in New York or Las Vegas. Each performance has a different price so you may check each theater for this information. As mentioned earlier, there are many hotels and resorts for you to choose from. Examples include Marriott’s Willow Ridge Lodge, Chateau on the Lake Resort, The Old Southern Inn, Spinning Wheel Inn, Parkview Lodge, Cabins at Grand Mountain to name only a few. Prices will range from over $150 per night down to the $55 dollar range per night. There are also
fine RV parks and campgrounds. How do you get here? The roads are good if you plan to drive and airfares will be lower than for peak summer travel times. You may fly into one of two airports. Only opened two years ago is the Branson Airport or 50 miles away is Springfield where it is possible to book a transfer bus into Branson. Check the Internet and discover how much there really is to do in Branson, Mo. Give it a try and discover how really entertaining “American” entertainment is.

IN THE KITCHEN | FAMILY FEATURES
QUICK COOKING FOR THE HOLIDAYS When it comes to preparing the family dinner during a busy week, every minute spared is a minute you can spend helping with homework, tackling laundry, or even catching up with the family at the end of the day. And during the holiday season, those busy weeks get even busier. Marco Canora, chef, restaurateur, cookbook author and owner of Hearth Restaurant in Manhattan’s East Village, understands that shortcuts are often necessary when cooking at home. “Saving time is crucial when preparing family meals, but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice flavor or quality ingredients. Finding the right tools to help you prepare well-balanced and inspiring meals is key for making more time for your family while ensuring they’re properly fed.” With his recipe for Soffritto, Canora uses the Quick Chef Pro and Chef Series Griddle Pan from Tupperware to help save time. “Look for quality tools that can make chopping, dicing, mixing, cooking and storing easier and more efficient,” suggests Canora. And to save even more time during the week, consider “batch cooking” meals. “The best part about cooking up family-style meals is that you can save leftover-worthy options to reheat for lunch the following day.” For example, dice up enough fresh herbs, tomatoes, onions and garlic for the entire week. Then, simply store each ingredient separately in the refrigerator to help save time later in the week, whether you’re preparing an Italian or Mexican-inspired meal. You can grill up steaks, assemble quick quesadillas, or personalize a freshly-tossed salad with those same go-to ingredients for fast, convenient and wholesome meals. Try these delicious recipes for your next family meal; you’ll be surprised by how much time you can save. To learn more about Tupperware’s timesaving kitchen tools and storage solutions, visit www.tupperware.com.

SANDWICH AND SOUP ALWAYS A WINNER There’s a delicious movement taking hold: food lovers everywhere are demanding layers of flavor. And, Campbell’s Master Chef Thomas Griffiths and his team of chefs are leading the way with on-trend flavor combinations that appeal to diverse tastes. “People are hungry for an authentic, homemade experience but don’t always have the time to create it,” said Chef Griffiths, CMC, Director of Campbell’s Culinary and Baking Institute. “We’ve dialed up the flavor in our new gourmet offerings to help people enjoy these flavors in the comfort of their home — either as a stand-alone indulgence after a long day of work or as a simple starter for a dinner party.” New Campbell’s Gourmet Bisques complement any meal with layered flavors such as coconut milk, ripe red tomato and kaffir lime, and Campbell’s Slow Kettle Style soups are slowly simmered to create a mouth-watering taste without the hassle of making it yourself. Along with the demand for these bold flavors comes the desire for high-quality ingredients that deliver delicious taste. The new Campbell’s Condensed SunRipened Yellow Tomato soup exemplifies how ingredients such as specially cultivated yellow toma-
toes, cilantro and thyme can come together to create the rich experience people crave. To take your “layers of flavors experience” to the next level, try pairing this soup with a Cheddar, Pesto and Crunchy Onion Panini.
CHEDDAR, PESTO AND CRUNCHY ONION PANINI Recipe created by: Thomas Griffiths, CMC, Director of Campbell’s Culinary and Baking Institute Preparation time: 10 minutes; cooking time: 10 minutes; makes four servings. 2 tablespoons butter, softened 1/2 of a 24-ounce package Pepperidge Farm Farmhouse Hearty White Bread (8 slices) 8 slices deli sharp cheddar cheese (about 8 ounces) 1/4 cup pesto sauce 1/2 cup french fried onions Spread the butter on the bread slices. Turn 4 bread slices butterside down. Place 2 cheese slices on each butter-topped slice and top each with 1 tablespoon pesto and 2 tablespoons onions. Top with the remaining bread slices, butter-side up. Heat the panini maker. Add the sandwiches in batches and cook for 5 minutes or until lightly browned and the cheese is melted. Alternate Preparation: If you don’t have a panini maker you can use a grill pan or a 10-inch skillet. Assemble the sandwiches as directed above. Heat the grill pan or skillet over medium heat. Add the sandwiches in batches and cook until lightly browned on both sides and the cheese is melted. Pair with Campbell’s Sun-Ripened Yellow Tomato soup.

RIM HISTORY RIM HISTORY BACK WHEN | STAN BROWN
RIM COUNTRY PLACES CHAPTER 8 – CHEDISKI IS MORE THAN A FIRE
Arizona residents will long remember the RodeoChediski Fire of June 2002. It consumed 468,638 acres along with many homes and businesses. It was the most expensive, devastating fire to that date in the state’s recorded history. (1) However, the name “Chediski” originally denoted a mountain on the White Mountain Indian Reservation. Nearby is the birthplace of the western-most family of Apaches, the Oak Creek Band. There, lost to most whites, except for adventurous hikers and historians, the Oak Creek Apache raised corn and squash along the banks of Oak Creek and Canyon Creek (2). The Apache name, Chediski, means either white mountain that STAN BROWN sits back alone or a solid object that juts out. The name is often applied to the band of Apaches who call the area their home. Until the 1860s the several western bands of the White Mountain Apaches had continued to live as their grandparents had. They hunted, gathered natural fruits from the land and raised corn and squash along the banks of several streams. They also carried on trade with Navajo and Zuni people north of them. Anglo and Mexican cloth, weapons, and metal tools were obtained by those tribes that had already established contact with invading groups in Arizona and New Mexico. These things were desired by the Apaches in exchange for hides and basketry. White traders, like the infamous freighter Solomon Barth from New Mexico, were venturing to trade in the Apache territories. The peaceful attitude of these Apache bands was due in part to their isolation, not fearing white encroachment and “to their band chiefs who counseled the people to avoid the kind of trouble that Apache bands to the south and east were having with Anglos.” (3) One lovely October day in 1997 the archaeologist and sacred site protector for the White Mountain tribe, Dr. John Welch, took several of us history buffs in his trusty, old Blazer on an adventurous ride over the mountains to Chediski Farms. The trip took us through several small settlements, each of which was the home ground for an Apache family, or band, and each was centered along a stream. These streams provided the fertile soil for crops of corn and squash. Each area has a small mountain, butte or peak nearby, and the bands have stories to tell regarding the invasion of the armies of white soldiers. We passed Cedar Creek, then north to Carrizo, then west to Cibecue where the Apache rebellion and outbreak of 1881 began. The Cibecue and Oak Creek people have held on to their heritage more tenaciously than some other Apache groups. The children speak Apache at home and on the playground, partially due to a culture renaissance that has been going on in the tribe. Our guide informed us that their dialect is richer than the White Mountain dialect. They are closer to the original language and have incorporated fewer changes in their traditions during the last century. This may be partially due to their isolation. It took us nearly half a day to go the few miles over very rough terrain in the old Blazer. We drove up and down the hills of this gorgeous wilderness, where the southwest corner of Navajo County overlaps the reservation. Not

Dr. John Welch (top left) has worked with the White Mountain Apache Tribe for more than 25 years, serving as the Tribe’s Historic Preservation Officer from 1992 to 2005. Welch’s current collaborations center on cultural heritage issues at the interface of sovereignty and stewardship — the practical and political decisions and dynamics that determine what is to be carried forward into the future. An Oak Creek woman (bottom left) walks away from the Rodeo-Chediski Fire of 2002. Until last year’s Wallow Fire, the Rodeo-Chediski Fire was the largest in the state’s history. A traditional White Mountain Apache Summer Camp (above) was put in place along the creeks while raising crops.
much farther west or south of Chediski, the Oak Creek/Cibecue territory becomes Tonto Apache territory. We were told that they often made fun on the Tonto people behind their backs claiming, “they sound like babies, sort of gurgle their words.” (4) Crossing Oak Creek (of course this is not the creek by that name near Sedona) we came soon to Canyon Creek and the Chediski Farms. Strung out along the several creeks the so-called farms are “a string of pearls” — that is the term local residents used for their productive gardens. The Apache camps in these isolated valleys were worked up until the 1960s, but the beguiling call of civilization has resulted in these farms being abandoned. The Chediski Fire further made this beautiful area uninhabitable and it will be many generations before the wonderful forest and ground cover returns to its former beauty. When we had reached Canyon Creek and the Chediski Farms area we were almost in Gila County. At this point Canyon Creek takes on Ellison Creek, named for pioneer rancher Jesse W. Ellison. At first, in 1885, this pioneer had settled under the Mogollon Rim, just west on Tonto Creek, and the spring fed flow in that canyon was named Ellison Creek. However in 1895 he sold his claim, called “The Apple Farm,” to the Haught family, and moved to stake a claim east of the town of Young in Pleasant Valley. One of the creeks on this large ranch became another Ellison Creek and here for generations the Tonto Apaches and Oak Creek-Cibecue people intermingled. Ellison’s “Q” brand became well known and his growing cattle herd called for more cowboys. Ellison found a ready reserve of employees among the Oak Creek Apaches, who often camped on his ranch anyway. The Apache clan was headed by the Lupe family, and Ellison became something of an arbiter in their disputes. Some of the Apache families even named children after him. When the band’s medicine man John Dazen died, he was replaced by Bill Lupe, who named his first son Ellison. The Indians traded their corn to Ellison for cattle,
and the Oak Creek band developed a fine ability to be cattle ranchers. Jesse Ellison’s grandson, Glenn “Slim” Ellison, writes of the time about 50 Apaches of all ages were camped around the Q Ranch headquarters, with dozens of little camp fires burning. A steer was roped and shot for the campers to eat, and Slim wrote, “In fifteen minutes after the beef was killed and skinned, there was only a wet spot where it had laid. The Indians cut it in chunks and was running it to their camps. The guts was cut in pieces, then thrown on the fire. Some of the Indians were so hungry they’d get a gut off the fire the chew on one end. They were starving. They were supposed to get rations from Fort Apache, but sometimes there was only a little for those who lived a good distance from the fort ...” (5) This comment by one who was there may give more insight into why the Chediski Farms of the Oak Creek people were abandoned. The extreme isolation, the increasing dependence on white government and the availability of employment like the Q Ranch made the old ways seem less desirable. Next: Chevelon Canyon Notes 1. Total acreage sand destruction surpassed the Rodeo-Chediski Fire by the Wallow Fire, in June 2011. 2. Oak Creek rises on the southern flanks of Chediski Mountain, and flows into Canyon Creek. Ellison Creek, named for the Ellison family of Pleasant Valley, flowed into Canyon Creek some miles before the junction with Oak Creek. 3.

STRANGE BUT TRUE | SAMANTHA WEAVER
Countdown to the giant pickle drop • If you’d like to have a festive New Year’s Eve but don’t want to deal with the crowds in New York City for the iconic ball drop, consider heading to Mount Olive, N.C. Every year the town hosts a celebration in which a 3-foot lighted pickle is dropped into a barrel at midnight. • It was British biologist and author Richard Dawkins who made the following sage observation: “When two opposite points of view are expressed with equal intensity, the truth does not necessarily lie exactly halfway between them. It is possible for one side to be
simply wrong.” • If you’re like 20 percent of American women, you think your feet are too big. • Did you ever wonder why we say, “I smell a rat” when we sense that something is amiss? The phrase dates back to a time before effective means of pest control, when it was not uncommon for a home to be infested by rodents. If a rat died inside a wall, the residents wouldn’t be aware of it until the smell of the decaying body became noticeable. • Ancient Romans believed that a sneeze was the body’s way of expelling
evil spirits that caused disease. Thus, if one tried to suppress a sneeze, it was regarded as an invitation to illness and death. • The 14-foot model of the Starship Enterprise that was used during shooting of the original “Star Trek” series is now displayed in the Smithsonian. • If you are over the age of 40, you’ve lived longer than most gorillas. • The first woman to appear on the cover of Business Week magazine, in 1954, was Brownie Wise, the originator of the Tupperware Party.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Start preparing now to make sure you get the credit you’re due for all that effort you put in to get that project off the ground. A new challenge emerges after the 15th. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You’re still charging full steam ahead on the job — and that’s fine. But take time to share the joy of preparing for the upcoming holidays with folks you love. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A former detractor resists joining your ranks just yet. Give him or her time to learn more about what you’re doing. Meanwhile, devote more time to friends and family. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Be careful not to be goaded into a tiff by someone who might be looking for a fight. Remain cool as you make your exit. Be assured that others will rally to your support. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Kudos on getting the well-deserved Lion’s share of the rewards for a job well-done. Now you can take a breather from your workaday duties and spend time with your family. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) You enjoy a quick spurt of renewed energy just in time to meet that upcoming deadline. A potentially romantic situation looms. How it develops will be up to you. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Watch out for distractions that could cause delays and leave you running twice as fast to finish your work by the 15th. Then go ahead and have fun. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) You might prefer to work on current tasks on your own. But be open to a potentially useful suggestion from someone who admires you and wants to help. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Avoid rushing full gallop into that volunteer project without knowing what’s expected of you. Take things a step at a time as you begin to find your way. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Good news: You should begin to feel more comfortable expressing your emotions. This will go a long way in helping you with that personal situation. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) An old friend gives confusing signals. Best advice: Don’t assume that things will necessarily work themselves out. Ask questions and demand straight answers. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) A new relationship needs time to develop. Be careful not to let your emotions flood your natural sense of caution. Meanwhile, check out that new job offer. BORN THIS WEEK: Your sense of right and wrong sometimes causes you to come into conflict with others. But you invariably come out ahead. © 2012 King Features Synd., Inc.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH
Diabetes advice and goals BY PAUL G. DONOHUE, M.D. 2012 NORTH AMERICA SYND., INC.
DEAR DR. DONOHUE: What advice can you give to senior citizens with type 2 diabetes? — W.S. ANSWER: People with either type 1 or type 2 diabetes have similar goals and are given fairly similar advice. Type 2 diabetes used to be called adult onset diabetes and often can be controlled with oral medicines and diet. Type 1 diabetes used to be called juvenile diabetes, and it requires insulin treatment. Those older designations are misleading. Many type 2 diabetics have to take insulin. People with diabetes ought to have a meter that provides the blood sugar (plasma glucose) reading. It’s impossible to adjust medicine or diet without such information. The first reading in the morning, before taking food, ought to be in the range of 70 to 130 mg/dL (3.9 to 7.2 mmol/L). The blood sugar meter is not expensive, and is easy to use. In addition, hemoglobin A1C, another measure of sugar control, should be less than 7 percent. This value is obtained only a couple of times a year. Since diabetes is a risk for developing heart attacks and strokes, diabetics are obliged to control the other risks for those two common conditions. Those are blood pressure, which should be less than 140/90 and preferably under 130/80. Cholesterol ought to be lower than 200 mg/dl (5.2 mmol/L). LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) is best kept under 100 (2.6) and the optimum reading for triglycerides (blood fats) is now set at 100 mg/dL (1.13 mmol/L). Diabetics ought to have yearly eye exams. Since obesity is common in type 2 diabetes and since modest weight loss (a 5 percent to 7 percent reduction in body weight) can help, calorie reduction is important. Increased activity controls blood sugar and body weight. The goal is 30 minutes of moderate exercise on most days of the week. Diabetics should get instructions in diet control from a dietitian. In general, 50 percent to 55 percent of calories come from carbohydrates, 15 percent to 20 percent from protein and 30 percent from fats. The booklet on diabetes presents this illness and its treatments in detail. Readers can obtain a copy by writing: Dr. Donohue — No. 402W, Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475. Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$6 Canada with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery. DEAR DR. DONOHUE: My husband was discovered to have sleep apnea. He is now on CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) at night. The problem is that he sometimes gets up as many as 14 times a night to void. I have him on a nonprescription sleep preparation, but he still gets up. Lack of sleep makes him angry. — L.C. ANSWER: You’re directing your efforts in the wrong direction. His prostate gland is making him get up during the night. His gland doesn’t allow his urinary bladder to completely empty. He urinates only in dribs and drabs. Medicines can enhance bladder emptying. And there are many office procedures that don’t entail long surgery or long recovery that can open up his drainage system. Take your husband to a urologist. Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475.
