When Mary was 16, she married the French Dauphin Francis, who became King Francis II when she was 17. The union lasted only two years, as Francis died in 1560, and Mary returned to Scotland.

HEALTH PAGE TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

By Keith Roach, M.D.

Woman Is Fit, But Can Barely Stand --DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 66-year-old female. Even though I use gym weight machines for upper and lower body three times a week, walk daily for 2 miles and spend 15 minutes on a motion trainer at the gym, I cannot stand up easily after gardening on my knees or getting on my knees on the floor. Is there anything I can do to regain the ability to get up off the floor/ground without a struggle? -- S.C. ANSWER: It sounds to me that despite your good exercise regimen, you may have weakness specifically in your thighs -- what we call “proximal muscle weakness.” There is a very long list of medical illnesses that affect these muscles specifically (my textbook lists 28 different diagnoses), including common conditions such as low thyroid levels and vitamin D deficiency. I would recommend a visit to your doctor for a careful exam of your nerves and muscles to see if my suspicion is correct. Your doctor may suggest a trial of vitamin D. If no medical cause is found, I would work specifically on strengthening the hip muscles, which extend the thighs. A trainer at the gym can show you those exercises. *** DEAR DR. ROACH: Both of my daughters are in their 40s and going through menopause (according to their doctors, so they are not guessing about this). Both daughters are having such severe migraine headaches that they are missing work (and both are practically workaholics who usually are able to tough it through physical problems). The migraines occur almost every time they have a period. Migraines are not daily during that time, but episodic (usually one per period). They do not have migraines except during menses.

One daughter was put on estrogen, which has helped her cramping, but she still is getting migraines. The other daughter has been referred to three physicians who all told her there was nothing that could be done but go on estrogen. She is now 49 years old and concerned that if she goes on estrogen at this point, she will simply have the same migraine issues again when she goes off it and wonders if that is actually worth just delaying having to deal with the migraines.

Is there any other solution besides estrogen for severe hormonal migraines? -- S.S. ANSWER: Estrogen-associated migraine is common. However, it usually is the drop in estrogen that triggers the migraine. That’s the reason many women get migraines around the time of their periods, as estrogen levels normally decline then.

For many women, migraines get worse years before menopause -- and by “menopause,” I mean when periods stop altogether. As the periods become erratic, and sleep cycles are interrupted by hot flashes, migraines become worse, as they have in your daughters. However, once periods stop entirely, episodic migraines usually get dramatically better on their own.

During the erratic time before menses completely stop, estrogen pills, cream or an insertable ring can be used to maintain a more constant estrogen level, which usually improves the headaches. This can be slowly tapered off when the periods could be expected to be finished. *** Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible.

Coffeen Ave.

AGE OF ACCOMPLISHMENT (continued): • Norwegian figure skater Sonja Henie competed in her first Olympics at Chamonix, France, at age 11 finishing dead last. But just four years later she took the gold medal, followed by two more wins in 1932 and 1936. Her performances took place on outdoor rinks in the cold and wind. Although she performed in a knee-length wool skirt, she didn’t need to worry about that hampering her jumps – in her day, it was deemed “unladylike to jump into the air” or perform spins. Sonja retired at age 23, moved to Hollywood, and became one of the industry’s highest paid movie stars of her day.

• Two actresses were presented Oscars for Best Supporting Actress at very young ages. Tenyear-old Tatum O’Neal received the honor for her performance in 1973’s Paper Moon, while Anna Paquin was the winner at age 11 in 1994 for her role in The Piano. In 1935, six-year-old Shirley Temple was awarded the very first Juvenile Oscar, a special honorary Academy Award for “her outstanding contribution to screen entertainment during the year 1934.” Shirley began her film career at age 3 and retired in 1950 at age 22. She later served as U.S. Ambassador to Ghana and Czechoslovakia.

• Jessica Tandy was 80 years old when she was awarded her first Oscar, Best Actress in 1989’s Driving Miss Daisy.

Natural & Organic Groceries & Supplements Another 80-year-old, George Burns, took home his first Oscar 14 for the 1975 film The Sunshine Sheridan Good Health Emporium Boys.

Leather Outfitters • Theodore Roosevelt was the • youngest President in U.S. history when he was elected at 42 Werco Ave. years, 10 months in 1904.

ACCOMPLISHMENT (continued): • When she was born in 1912, the press called Doris Duke the “million dollar baby.” She was the only child of American tobacco baron James Duke, who headed a company in business since the Civil War. Her father’s donation of $40 million resulted in a name change from Trinity College in Durham, North Carolina, to Duke University. When Doris was 12, her father died and bequeathed her upwards of $30 million, leaving only a modest trust fund to her mother. At 14, Doris sued her mother to keep her from selling the family assets.

Over the course of her lifetime, Doris increased her father’s fortune by four times. She spent much of her time traveling and was an avid art collector. Doris also owned five homes, including a 2000-acre New Jersey farm, a penthouse on Park Avenue, a Beverly Hills mansion, a Hawaiian palace, and a summer home in Newport, Rhode Island. When she died in 1993, the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation was worth about $1.2 billion.

• Noted French painter Claude Monet was 60 when he began work on his famous water lilies series of paintings. The group of 250 works were this Impressionist’s depiction of his flower garden at Giverny.

He suffered from cataracts in both eyes when many of the panels were painted, and underwent a risky eye surgery at age 82, which was not overly successful. In 2014, one of the Water Lilies paintings sold at a Christie’s auction for $27 million.

• Greek runner Dimitrion Yordanidis was 98 when he completed a 26-mile marathon in 7 hours, 33 minutes, in 1976. It took 100-year-old Fajua Singh a little longer, just over 8 hours, to finish the Toronto Marathon in 2011. Compare these to the record marathon time of just over 2 hours, 2 minutes.

• Famed astronaut John Glenn was 40 years old when he became the first American to orbit Earth, making three orbits aboard Friendship 7 in February, 1962. The Ohio-born Glenn was a 22-year-old Marine when he was deployed to the Pacific Front in World War II, flying 59 combat missions over the course of the war. During the Korean War, he served on 90 missions. At 38, he was selected for the U.S. Space Program. Glenn retired from NASA two years after his historic flight into space. At age 53, he was elected to the U.S. Senate, and at 63, made an unsuccessful bid for the Democratic presidential nomination. In 1998, at age 77, after an absence of 36 years, John Glenn returned to space aboard the space shuttle Discovery, becoming the oldest person to fly in space. The mission lasted nine days and included a study on aging and space travel. Glenn returned to his senatorial duties for another year, retiring at 78.

• Most folks haven’t heard of Hulda Crooks, an American mountaineer. This incredible woman climbed Mt. Whitney, the highest peak in the continental United States, and Japan’s Mt. Fuji at age 91. In fact, she climbed to Mt. Whitney’s 14,505-foot (4,421-m) peak 23 times between the ages of 65 and 91, along with 97 other peaks. At 95, she was still walking two miles every day. Hulda lived to be 101.

• At 95, Grandma Moses, who had taken up painting at age 78, wrote, “…in olden times, things were not so rushed. I think people were more content, more satisfied with life than they are today. You don’t hear nearly as much laughter and shouting as you did in my day, and what was fun for us wouldn’t be fun now.” This renowned American folk artist generated 1,500 paintings over three decades before passing away at age 101.

Coogan earned an estimated $3 to $5 million ($48 to $65 million in today’s dollars) as a child, with the majority of the money squandered by his mother and stepfather on furs, diamonds, and expensive automobiles. At age 24, Coogan sued his parents, but received only $126,000 after paying legal expenses. In later years, we knew Coogan as Uncle Fester on the 1960s sitcom The Addams Family.

• It took 11-year-old Thomas Gregory 11 hours and 54 minutes to swim across the English Channel in 1988. He will remain the youngest on record, as there is now a minimum age of 16 to attempt the feat. Roger Allsopp is the record holder as the oldest to make the swim, an achievement that took 17 hours and 51 minutes when he was 70 years old.

• Dr. Balammurali Ambati holds the record of being the world’s youngest doctor. He was already doing calculus at age four, and coauthored a research book on AIDS at age 11.

Ambati graduated from medical school at age 17. Today, in his early 30s, this ophthalmologist, educator, and researcher works at the University of Utah.

• Kentucky country singer Loretta Lynn was 15 when she wed Oliver Lynn and had four children by the time she turned 20. She was a grandmother for the first time at age 29. Over the course of her successful career, Loretta Lynn has written more than 160 songs and released 60 albums, with sales of 45 million records. She’s had 16 #1 singles and has won four Grammy Awards.

Fat Cat

--DEAR PAW’S CORNER: My cat “Sandy” has had a weight problem for a few years now. His veterinarian recommended giving him less food and more exercise, but it hasn’t helped. What else can I do? -- Craig in Grand Rapids, Michigan DEAR CRAIG: First, take Sandy in for a complete health evaluation at the vet -- if one hasn’t been done lately -- just to rule out any underlying issues.

Then, if his health is fine, start re-evaluating his regime.

Like humans, pets can fall into routines where they get far less exercise and eat much more than an owner may estimate. Many pets also are masters at sneaking food when we’re not looking. So, here are some tips to help jump-start Sandy’s weight loss: * Follow the vet’s recommended feeding amounts exactly. Use a measuring cup. * If you don’t get a recommended amount, follow this guideline for indoor cats: about 20 calories per pound of weight. So, a 10-pound cat needs about 200 calories per day to maintain that weight, while a 15-pound cat needs about 300 calories per day. Lower those calorie amounts slightly -- about 40 fewer calories per day -- for weight loss. * Double your pet’s activity time. Do you swing a toy in front of your cat for 5-10 minutes each evening while your TV shows are on? Make it 20 minutes. * Reset the routine for both of you. Carve out play or exercise time in the morning and evening. * Provide your cat plenty of distractions from the food bowl: catnip-laced toys, scratching posts, etc.

BENJAMIN FRANKLIN Not only was Benjamin Franklin one of the Founding Fathers of the United States, he was a gifted inventor, author, printer, politician, postmaster, scientist, civic activist, statesman, and foreign diplomat. There might be a few things on this list that you didn’t know were Franklin’s creations!

• Born in Boston in 1706, Franklin’s formal schooling ended at age 10. At 12, he began an apprenticeship in his brother’s print shop.

• His first invention came along when Franklin was 11. An enthusiastic swimmer, he developed a pair of swim fins. They weren’t what we think of today as flippers, but rather were a pair of oval planks with holes in the center that were attached to the hands.

• At 17, Franklin moved to Philadelphia, where he worked in print shops over the next few years. At 22, he set up his own shop, and the following year began publishing his own newspaper. Always an avid reader, Franklin came up with the idea of fellow book lovers sharing their books with others, as well as pooling funds to buy more books for the group. Franklin’s idea turned into the Library Company of Philadelphia, the first subscription library. When he was 33, the collection was moved to Independence Hall.

• Franklin’s love of books led to his invention of the “long arm,” a wooden pole with a grasping claw on the end that enabled him to reach books on high shelves.

• When Franklin was 36, he devised a metal-lined fireplace with rear baffles for better airflow. Placed in the middle of the room, this cast iron stove radiated heat in all directions and kept the room warm hours after the fire went out. In addition to greater heat, the Franklin stove produced less smoke than an open fireplace and used less wood.

• Serving as Philadelphia’s postmaster for 16 years led to Franklin’s invention of an improved odometer.

It began with his curiosity as to how far he was traveling by carriage between Philadelphia and Boston, carrying out his postmaster duties. He attached a geared device to the rear wheel of his carriage, measuring the revolutions made by the wheel. Every 400 revolutions caused the device to register ahead one mile (1.6 km). He used his invention to streamline the mail delivery, measuring the distances between postal stations to develop more efficient mail routes.

• Franklin was even responsible for a musical instrument called the hydrocrystalophone, which in simpler terms was known as the glass armonica. His armonica consisted of a series of glass bowls of graduated size floating in a tray of water. The varying sizes produced different musical tones based on the size of the bowl. Before long, it was being played in concert halls across Europe and America, and even Mozart and Beethoven composed music for it.

• At 79, Franklin was still coming up with new ideas. Suffering from presbyopia, he conceived the idea of “double spectacles,” which allowed him to see distant objects as well as see close work. He hired his optician to use lenses from two sets of glasses, cutting them horizontally, and putting them into frames.

It was the birth of bifocals!

• Benjamin Franklin did not patent a single one of his inventions, choosing to gift them to the public. In his words, “As we benefit from the inventions of others, we should be glad to share our own, freely and gladly.”

HOW OLD? HOW YOUNG? (continued): • Anne Frank received a diary for her 13th birthday in 1942, and three weeks later her family went into hiding from the German Nazis. They remained safe for over two years, during which time Anne recorded her life’s experiences, until their hiding place was betrayed. Anne was sent to the German concentration camp Bergen-Belsen, where she died from typhus just weeks before British troops liberated the camp. Her manuscript was preserved by a family friend and has been translated into 67 languages, selling more than 30 million copies. At age 15, Anne Frank wrote, “In spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart.”

• If you’re a hockey fan, they you’ll know that the oldest player in NHL history is Gordie Howe, who was 52 when he retired in 1980.

• Apparently there is no age limit for folks figuring out that their marriage just isn’t going to work. An English couple Bertie and Jessie Wood called it quits after 36 years in 2009 when they were both 97.

• Mickey Rooney made his film debut at age 6 and went on to appear in more than 300 movies. As a teenager, he was chosen to portray Andy Hardy in a series of 14 successful films. Between the ages of 15 and 25, he made 43 movies. In his words, “I was a fourteen-year-old boy for 30 years.”

• Explorer Marco Polo was just 17 when he set off from Venice on an expedition to Asia that would last 24 years, traveling 15,000 miles (24,000 km). He penned the stories of his adventures in the Far East in The Travels of Marco Polo.
