A STORY OF
Courage and Hope In the summer of 2008, Stephanie Nielson, 27, was living a picture-perfect life married to the man of her dreams and raising four beautiful children. On Aug. 16, that all came crashing down. “The accident took so much, but over the last three years, I feel like I have, slowly but surely, reclaimed from the wreckage everything that truly matters.”

P Titanic wreckage
Q: Why is the Titanic
still at the bottom of the ocean? —B. F., San Francisco
A: The ship is so fragile
that a full excavation would be too costly and time-consuming, with no promise of success. “It’s easier to go to the moon,” laughs P. H. Nargeolet, director of underwater research for RMS Titanic Inc. Indeed, it took his team two years to stabilize and raise a small, 20-ton piece of the 46,000-ton ship.
P Belfast’s Titanic museum
Q: Was any memorial created for the victims? —Ward, via Facebook
A: Because the passen-
gers and crew hailed from many countries, there are a number of memorials around the globe—from a statue honoring the ship’s engineers in Southampton, England, where the Titanic set sail, to a
Titanic in real life ife THE MUSIC According to some witnesses, an eight-man band played either “Nearer, My God, to Thee” or “Songe d’Automne” during the ship’s final moments. LOVE STORY Macy’s co-owner Isidor Straus and his wife, Ida (right), refused a lifeboat and were last seen together on the ship’s deck. TREASURE Passengers brought along their personal baubles; some have been recovered from the wreckage.

The Strauses are T shown as an elderly couple embracing each other in bed as they share a last tender moment together.
Q: Is it true that they are auctioning off items recovered from the wreck? —Louie, Philadelphia
A: Yes—5,500 artifacts,
valued at $189 million in 2007 (including jewelry and pieces of the ship), will be sold as one lot in mid-April; the deadline for bids was April 1. The buyer must be courtapproved and agree to maintain the collection and display it publicly.
P Julian Fellowes
Q: Why is the world still The movie’s Heart of the Ocean necklace (left) was fiction, but its creator, Asprey & Garrard, made a real-life replica that was auctioned for charity in 1998 for $2.2 million. The older Rose (played by Gloria Stuart) has a Pomeranian (left)— the breed of two of the surviving dogs.

fascinated by the Titanic tragedy 100 years later? —A. Evans, Lincoln, Neb.
A: “What makes it so
haunting and iconic is that it was a microcosm of the world; whoever you are, there was someone like you on board,”
HEAR A SURVIVOR TELL HIS STORY The recently published book A Rare Titanic Family: The Caldwells’ Story of Survival follows a family’s incredible escape from the sinking ship. Go to Parade .com/caldwell to listen to patriarch Albert (right) as he relived the ordeal shortly before his death in 1977.
Were Rose and Jack based on real passengers on the Titanic? —Don G., Hawthorne, Calif.
The characters played by Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio (above) in director James Cameron’s film were inspired by two star-crossed lovers, but neither was on the ship. As Cameron has put it, Jack and Rose are “Romeo and Juliet on the Titanic.”
says Downton Abbey creator Julian Fellowes, 62, who wrote the new ABC miniseries Titanic (April 14 and 15; check local listings). Dramatizations can also offer catharsis, he adds: “Disasters allow you to reevaluate life, and that can be sort of marvelous.”

BRIEF 4622*38 This summary does not take the place of talking to your healthcare provider about your medical condition or treatment. See full Prescribing Information for complete product information. What is the most important information I should know about ADVAIR DISKUS? ADVAIR DISKUS can cause serious side effects, including: 1. People with asthma who take long-acting beta 2 -adrenergic agonist (LABA) medicines, such as salmeterol (one of the medicines in ADVAIR DISKUS), have an increased risk of death from asthma problems. It is not known whether uticasone propionate, the other medicine in ADVAIR DISKUS, reduces the risk of death from asthma problems seen with salmeterol. Call your healthcare provider if breathing problems worsen over time while using ADVAIR DISKUS. You may need different treatment. Get emergency medical care if: - breathing problems worsen quickly and - you use your rescue inhaler medicine, but it does not relieve your breathing problems. 2. ADVAIR DISKUS should be used only if your healthcare provider decides that your asthma is not well controlled with a long-term asthma control medicine, such as inhaled corticosteroids. 3. When your asthma is well controlled, your healthcare provider may tell you to stop taking ADVAIR DISKUS. Your healthcare provider will decide if you can stop ADVAIR DISKUS without loss of asthma control. Your healthcare provider may prescribe a different asthma control medicine for you, such as an inhaled corticosteroid. 4. Children and adolescents who take LABA medicines may have an increased risk of being hospitalized for asthma problems. What is ADVAIR DISKUS? % " # $# uticasone propionate (the same medicine found in FLOVENTŽ), and a LABA medicine, salmeterol (the same medicine found in SEREVENTŽ). - Inhaled corticosteroids help to decrease inammation in the lungs. Inammation in the lungs can lead to asthma symptoms. - LABA medicines are used in people with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). LABA medicines help the muscles around the airways in your lungs stay relaxed to prevent symptoms, such as wheezing and shortness of breath. These symptoms can happen when the muscles around the airways tighten. This makes it hard to breathe. In severe cases, wheezing can stop your breathing and cause death if not treated right away. % " # $# !
Asthma ADVAIR DISKUS is used to control symptoms of asthma and to prevent symptoms such as wheezing in adults and children aged 4 years and older. ADVAIR DISKUS contains salmeterol (the same medicine found in SEREVENT). LABA medicines, such as salmeterol, increase the risk of death from asthma problems. ADVAIR DISKUS is not for adults and children with asthma who are well controlled with an asthma control medicine, such as a low to medium dose of an inhaled corticosteroid medicine. COPD COPD is a chronic lung disease that includes chronic bronchitis, emphysema, or both. ADVAIR DISKUS 250/50 is used long term, 2 times each day to help improve lung function for better breathing in adults with COPD. ADVAIR DISKUS 250/50 has been shown to decrease the number of are-ups and worsening of COPD symptoms (exacerbations). Who should not use ADVAIR DISKUS? % " # $# !

Now the 62-year-old Rock and Roll Hall of Famer is releasing her first album in seven years, Slipstream, with covers of two Bob Dylan songs and a sultry, bluesy vibe. “There’s a little something for everybody,” she tells Roger Friedman as she gears up for a tour starting in May.
PARADE You and Alicia Keys performed a tribute to Etta James at the Grammys, singing “A Sunday Kind of Love.” What’s your Sunday kind of love? The part I can talk about in a family magazine? [laughs] Well, a nice leisurely morning, reading the papers, then out into the country. I live in Northern California, in Marin County, and there are many beautiful choices of hikes to take. Or my boyfriend and I go for a bike ride. We make dinner at home, watch 60 Minutes and a movie.

Slipstream is on your own label, Redwing Records. Why did you put it out yourself? Because I can! I have a pretty solid base of fans. I like the control, and this way if we’re messing up, money, entertainment, and more at least it’s our own fault. I used to say I didn’t want to talk weasel [deal with the business end]. But I’m really WHEN JANIS driving my career. JOPLIN AND It’s not like JIMI HENDRIX DIED, I SAID, ‘THAT’S someone else picks the songs NOT GOING or the looks. TO BE ME. I’M
SMARTER THAN THAT.’”
You made it a point to cut out drinking a while ago. I thought I had to live that partying lifestyle in order to be authentic, but in fact if you keep it up too long, all you’re going to be is sloppy or dead. I recently had my 25th anniversary of sobriety. I was one of the lucky ones. Seeing Whitney Houston pass away, and Amy Winehouse—everyone smiled at her “Rehab” song, but for me it was heartbreaking to hear her sing that because it just looked like she was on a slippery slope.

Bonnie Raitt The guitar heroine on taking control, staying sober, and being kissed by an angel Who is your boyfriend? We’ve been together seven years now. He’s great, but that’s all I can say. You know, [it’s like] the Sippie Wallace song that goes, “Don’t advertise your man.” Your red hair and its streak are one of your signatures. Is it natural?
The silver-white streak is natural. I was 24 [when it came in] and you can sort of see it on album covers. By 1981 it was expanding and my red was fading, so I started dyeing my hair [around the streak]. No one else in my family has it. I’ve been told it means you’ve been kissed by an angel.
Do you like touring? I love it. But when I went through a lot of loss [Raitt’s parents died in 2004 and 2005, and she lost a brother to a long battle with cancer], I took a hiatus. I’m just watching the pace, keeping a nice balance. If my memory serves me well, I’ve already made it. [laughs] How do you get comfortable on the road? Our tour bus becomes a second home. Email really helps me stay in touch with friends and save my voice. But I have to remember to get off the laptop and onto the yoga mat.

Blessings COUNTING HER
How do you keep going when your perfect life has been shattered? In an excerpt from her new memoir, plane crash survivor Stephanie Nielson recounts how unshakable faith, and her family’s abiding love, gave her strength on the long road back.
n the summer of 2008, Stephanie Nielson, 27, was married to the man of her dreams, raising four beautiful children in Mesa, Ariz., and putting out a popular blog devoted to her life as a wife, mother, and Mormon. The NieNie Dialogues attracted millions of followers and— with its tasteful craft projects and decorating ideas—the attention of the editors of marthastewart.com. But all that would come crashing down—literally—on Aug. 16, when the small plane carrying Stephanie, her husband, Christian, and a friend, pilot Doug Kinneard, hurtled to the ground in St. Johns, Ariz., and exploded in a ball of flame. Kinneard died; Christian was burned over 40 percent of his body; and Stephanie, trapped in the backseat, suffered burns over 80 percent of hers. Airlifted to the Arizona Burn Center in Phoenix, Stephanie spent 11 weeks in a medically induced coma as doctors worked desperately to keep her alive. Christian recovered nearby; the couple’s children—Nicholas, Oliver, Jane, and Claire, ranging in age from nearly 2 to 6—were cared for by two of Stephanie’s sisters, Courtney and Lucy, in Provo, Utah. That November, Stephanie finally awoke to the voices of her mother and her sister Page. This is her story, in her own words.

her close-knit family, which includes eight siblings. Despite constant, excruciating pain, she started physical therapy, while enduring endless surgeries to help heal her burned skin.
One day in late November, with a nurse at each arm and a physical therapist to hold my clumsy, swollen feet, I finally stood. The nurses helped me rock back and forth on the edge of the bed and eventually got me to my feet, which were wrapped in bandages and so swollen I looked like a clown. My feet seemed like they weren’t even attached to my body, as if a wire had been disconnected and the signal had been lost. I could not get them to obey. But there I was, standing—for the first time in almost four months. The nurses then helped me into a wheelchair to take me on my first trip to the physical therapy room. Every joint screamed. When I complained about the wheelchair, the nurse
gently pointed out that if I learned to walk I wouldn’t have to ride. I nodded and smiled, but seethed inside. Really? I wanted to pull her hair. WHILE STEPHANIE was progressing physically, emotionally she still faced huge hurdles. Her physician made it clear that one condition of her discharge was that she look at herself in a mirror. But she simply couldn’t do it. One late night in December, Christian came into her room with a hand mirror and gently urged her to look.
word settled heavy on my chest. I took another deep breath. Maybe it wasn’t so bad, I thought. I’m overreacting. Determined, I picked up the mirror again. It was bad. My cheeks were covered with bloody scabs. Half of my left ear was burned completely off. My face scared me; it would scare anyone. I could never let my children see this. How could they ever love me? My sisters would have to keep my children forever. I would need to be put away somewhere, away from human contact, for the rest of my life. I knew the world didn’t accept people like me. People were relentlessly critical and rude, or sickeningly condescending. I never wanted to be seen again. Then I tipped the mirror up. My green eyes looked back at me, and hope rippled through my soul. These were the green eyes I had inherited from my father, with golden flecks that Christian loved. I caught my breath. I saw God in my eyes. I saw reassurance. I even saw a glimpse of triumph. I was still me. Those eyes were mine. The life I saw in them came from God, and that gave me hope for the life of my body. STILL, STEPHANIE dreaded letting her children see her. In fact, she so stubbornly refused that one day her husband and sisters simply showed up at the hospital with the kids, insisting that Stephanie let them into her room. Oliver, who was almost 4, went first and seemed unfazed.
I took a deep breath and turned the mirror over. I started at my bandaged chest and worked my way up. My neck looked like the skin on Christian smiled. “You’re doing my arms, scarred and blotchy. I kept great, Steph.” He nodded encourgoing. I looked at my chin, then my agingly, and then went to bring lips. Could those be my lips? They Jane in. She was so excited she let were huge.

y body was covered in bandages. My fingernails were black. My burned lips were so swollen I could see them in my peripheral vision. I hadn’t seen my husband in almost four months. I had been on the brink of death, flatlining twice in the helicopter on the way to the hospital and a few more times once I’d arrived. I’d been in such critical condition that the doctors performed my first operation in my own bed. Moving me to the OR was too risky. I had been in surgery as often as my body would allow—every few days to harvest and graft new skin. Second- and third-degree burns covered most of my body. The burned skin was dead and would rot or harbor dangerous infection if it, and the damaged tissue underneath, wasn’t completely scraped away. It was a moment’s consolation to learn that the doctors had paused before they took the knife to my face, before they carved away the tissue that had defined my facial features, before they scraped my beauty away. I slept restlessly for the next few days, drifting in and out of consciousness. Each time I woke, silent and immobile, I stared at the ceiling and asked myself: How could this have happened to me? Will I ever move again? What’s going to happen to my family? Scattered images flashed through my mind. A wall of orange flames. The pungent smell of burning skin mixed with jet fuel. People shouting above the dull roar of fire. Dark black smoke, and a leaf above me in the sky.

I’ll get better, I’m going to look better. And I still love you so much. I really miss you.” I stared at the top of her red head and watched the rapid rise and fall of her little chest. She was on the brink of tears, too. “Janie, will you look at Mommy?” Finally she looked up, but at Christian. “Can I go now?” she asked. Christian nodded and hugged her. He turned to me as she walked out of the room. “I love you, Steph,” he whispered. Out in the hall, we overheard Jane say, “Claire, don’t go in there.” I gasped. It was that bad— I had scared my own baby girl.

Mika: My girls are teens, so I will be the pathetic yearning mother this year who misses having babies. I will make them do an egg hunt whether they like it or not. I’m going to hold o on to every last bit of them being young. A And I try to instill tthe concept of Lent, gi giving up something d then celebrating it. and It’s a fabulous challenge for children, particularly these days. Whether you celebrate religiously or not, I urge everyone to try giving up something for Lent. Joe: I don’t give up anything for Lent. I’m Baptist—we just keep sinning and ask for forgiveness. Tune in to Morning Joe on MSNBC, weekdays from 6 to 9 a.m.
Ideally, we’d get all of the vitamins we need from the foods we eat, but few of us actually do. That’s where multivitamins come in. Choose one that supplies 100 percent of your daily allowance, and avoid megadosing. If you’re postmenopausal or a man, you can skip the iron. You may also want to take 600 milligrams of calcium (for strong bones), 400 milligrams of magnesium, and 1,000 IU of vitamin D3. For video health tips from Dr. Oz, go to Parade.com/oz.

Ask Marilyn By Marilyn vos Savant
I have an outdoor extension cord with a tag that reads, “Do not connect more than three of these cords together.” Why? —John Stratton, Baltimore
The connection may create a fire hazard. (Electrical resistance increases with the length of the cord. If the cord was not designed to carry power that distance, the connected cords may overheat and catch fire.) If a cord has no tag at all, avoid connecting it to any other cord. Indoors, interconnected extension cords or power strips, called “daisy chains,” present a more serious fire hazard. People are often unaware of the dangers of even basic interlinking arrangements, which can violate the National Electrical Code. The solution is frequently simple: Buy a longer cord or a larger power strip. To ask a question, visit Parade.com/askmarilyn

Blessings | from page 9 health improved, she found the courage to return to her blog and was buoyed by how much support she found there. She was determined to rebuild her relationship with her children. One day, when they’d all been home for a week, she decided to read to them.
“Claire, let ’s read Stuart Little,” I suggested. Claire ran to her backpack and pulled out the book. “You’re going to read, Mom?” Ollie asked as he climbed onto the couch next to me. Jane wandered in, too. “What are you reading?” she asked Claire. “Stuart Little,” I answered. “It’s about a cute little mouse, Jane. I think you’d like it.” She shrugged and sat down on the floor by Nicholas. “Nicholas, you want to read with us?” Nicholas shook his head and looked back at his toys. “ ‘When Mrs. Frederick C. Little’s second son arrived, everyone noticed he was not much bigger than a mouse,’ ” I began, and Jane looked up. “ ‘The truth of the matter was, the baby looked very much like a mouse in every way.’ ” Claire giggled. “Look how cute he is with a little hat and shoes.” It was more than Jane could resist. She climbed up on the couch next to Claire. When Jane said something about the doctor examining Stuart Little, even Nicholas climbed on the couch, next to Oliver, so he could see the illustrations, too. I was sharing the couch with all four of my children. I wanted this moment to last forever. Hoping nothing would break the spell, I read one chapter after another. When we finished

We pulled up to the parking lot at the base of the trail and turned to our children in the backseat. “We’re here! Are you guys ready?” We all tumbled out of the car, gathering water bottles and tying shoes. “Mommy, who are all those people?” asked Jane, pointing at a crowd gathered at the trailhead. It did seem strange; the trail usually wasn’t this crowded. Then I noticed that people were holding balloons and wearing i nienie T-shirts [which had been sold at a fund-raiser for her]. Could they all be here for me? I was astonished to see the faces of some 200 strangers. Forty-five minutes later, I set out on the trail surrounded by Christian and my children, parents, brothers, sisters, nieces, and nephews. The smell of dirt and sagebrush was subtle and earthy. And the scent carried the memories of a lifetime of climbing. During my practice runs, I’d gone only as far as the fifth of the 12 switchbacks, but each 12 • April 8, 2012

Indications and Usage: Victoza® (liraglutide [rDNA origin] injection) is an injectable prescription medicine that may improve blood sugar (glucose) in adults with type 2 diabetes when used along with diet and exercise. Victoza® is not recommended as the first medication to treat diabetes. Victoza® is not insulin and has not been studied in combination with insulin. Victoza® is not for people with type 1 diabetes or people with diabetic ketoacidosis. It is not known if Victoza® is safe and effective in children. Victoza® is not recommended for use in children. Important Safety Information: In animal studies, Victoza® caused thyroid tumors—including thyroid cancer— in some rats and mice. It is not known whether Victoza® causes thyroid tumors or a type of thyroid cancer called medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) in people which may be fatal if not detected and treated early. Do not use Victoza® if you or any of your family members have a history of MTC or if you have Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2). While taking Victoza®, tell your doctor if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, hoarseness, trouble swallowing, or shortness of breath. These may be symptoms of thyroid cancer. Inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis) may be severe and lead to death. Before taking Victoza®, tell your doctor if you have had pancreatitis, gallstones, a history of alcoholism, or high blood triglyceride levels since these medical conditions make you more likely to get pancreatitis. Stop taking Victoza® and call your doctor right away if you have pain in your stomach area that is severe and will not go away, occurs with or without vomiting, or is felt going from your stomach area through to your back. These may be symptoms of pancreatitis. Before using Victoza®, tell your doctor about all the medicines you take, especially
sulfonylurea medicines or insulin, as taking them with Victoza® may affect how each medicine works. Also tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of the ingredients in Victoza®; have severe stomach problems such as slowed emptying of your stomach (gastroparesis) or problems with digesting food; have or have had kidney or liver problems; have any other medical conditions; are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. Tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. It is unknown if Victoza® will harm your unborn baby or if Victoza® passes into your breast milk. Your risk for getting hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, is higher if you take Victoza® with another medicine that can cause low blood sugar, such as a sulfonylurea. The dose of your sulfonylurea medicine may need to be lowered while taking Victoza®. Victoza® may cause nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea leading to dehydration, which may cause kidney failure. This can happen in people who have never had kidney problems before. Drinking plenty of fluids may reduce your chance of dehydration. The most common side effects with Victoza® include headache, nausea, and diarrhea. Nausea is most common when first starting Victoza®, but decreases over time in most people. Immune system-related reactions, including hives, were more common in people treated with Victoza® compared to people treated with other diabetes drugs in medical studies.

new turn was like greeting an old friend. Every rock and scrub oak seemed familiar and welcoming, as though they were as glad to have me back as I was to be there. The mountain curves outward just before the trail opens up at the base of the giant cement Y. When I rounded that ďŹ nal curve, family, friends, and strangers cheered. I held my arms out wide. “Thank you!â€? I shouted. “I made it!â€? Everyone released balloons into the sky. I hugged Christian and my mom and dad and Claire and Jane and anyone who was near enough to be hugged. I made it! STEPHANIE CONTINUED to undergo surgeries to stretch her skin, and in the fall of 2011 she had more joyous news to report: She was pregnant.
The accident took so much, in just an instant, but over these last three years, I feel like I have, slowly but surely, reclaimed from the wreckage everything that truly matters. Being a mother is at the top of the list. I undergo regular checkups to make sure my stomach is stretching properly, and so far, so good. It’s been challenging to wean myself off the chronic pain medications that make life normal for me, and, just like my pregnancies before the accident, I have been severely nauseated. But all the discomfort is worth it. I cannot wait to welcome our child into this beautiful world. Excerpted from the book Heaven Is Here by Stephanie Nielson. Š 2012 by Auroramark Enterprises LLC.
