Cave Creek’s shops suffering through pandemic BY SARA EDWARDS Foothills Focus Staff Writer

s the spread of COVID-19 has cost many people their jobs and forced them into social isolation, companies, restaurants and shops have suffered from the sudden decrease in business. Many North Valley small businesses have had to adjust to a new normal to keep their customers coming back so they can continue to serve after the pandemic passes. Sherry Vogler of Oak’s Diner has been serving innovative and traditional homemade meals for more than 16 years and depends on her dedicated customers.

Vogler said Oak’s Diner is still serving its same Cave Creek favorites, but instead of dining room seating, the diner has transitioned to takeout and curbside service. Oak’s Diner is also serving free coffee. “Our commitment is what keeps us upbeat and focused because our job is to serve the hungry folks in our community,” Vogler said. The Foothills Food Bank has also adjusted its system to help better serve people who need food and supplies. The food bank’s executive director, Pam Dipietro, said it has had an overwhelming response. “We finally have come upon a sys-

OVID-19 is forcing us to practice self-isolation and social distancing to keep us well. But some are developing stress and anxiety amid the recent outbreak. “I think all of us are feeling stressed to some degree,” said Dr. Barry Freeman, senior medical director at OptumCare Network of Arizona. “These are trying times.” Self-isolation, for many, is a completely new experience, and with this, it is easier to develop unhealthy habits and upend daily routines. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report the people who may respond stronger to stress are older folks; those with chronic diseases and are at higher risk for

COVID-19; children and teens; people who suffer from mental health conditions and medical workers. “We’re not exactly sure where this is going right now, so try to stay healthy,” Freeman said. The pandemic’s economic toll adds to isolation stress. Freeman recommends staying mobile, by taking a walk in the hallway, practicing yoga or meditation, or trying new hobbies. “Try to get back to the things you like to do,” Freeman said. “Keep your mind healthy by doing things you love; keep your body healthy by exercising.” Yoga and meditation practices are known for slowing the breath and focusing the mind. Regular practice can reduce blood pressure and emotions affected by self-iso-

lation. Jennifer Miles, owner of Jennifer Miles Wellness program in Phoenix, is helping others cope with their stress through virtual yoga sessions. Miles transitioned from in-person to virtual meetings so she can help with isolation depression and stress. “Yoga and meditation utilize the medium of the breath,” Miles said. “And through the medium of the breath we can get to the nervous system.” She specializes in a form of yoga call nidra, or a yogic sleep, that focuses on a state between waking and sleeping. This can be beneficial in combatting sleep and focus problems that can arise in isolation.

tem that we hope is going to work for this duration until we run out of food,” Dipietro said. Distribution is curbside. Anyone in its service area (North Black Canyon City, west to I-17, south to Pinnacle Peak or east to Rio Verde) can place a call for food to the food bank, then drive to the facilities and pick up their supplies. “It’s been working very well, and this way we haven’t needed as many volunteers in the facilities,” Dipietro said. The Cave Creek location has changed its hours from 9 a.m. to noon Monday to Friday and 5:30 to 7 p.m. Tuesday and Thursday. Dipietro said anyone whose income has been limited or lost can qualify to receive aid from the food bank. “If they are new people, they have to show something that proves they are working and don’t live within our area. If they do, they need to bring in proof of residency that they live in our area,” Dipietro said. “Then we need identification for those who live in the house—like a driver’s license—to confirm who lives in the house and that’s it. We don’t question anything else.” Restaurants aren’t the only ones that have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Small boutiques and shops around Cave Creek have also had to adjust their normal business standards to continue bringing in their customers.

Blood donors urgently needed in wake of coronavirus Fountain Hills

BY CHRISTINA FUOCO-KARASINSKI Foothills Focus Executive Editor

r. Ralph Vassallo, Vitalant chief medical and scientific officer, is urging the public to donate blood, as there is a national shortage thanks to canceled blood drives. “It’s critical for healthy eligible Americans to give blood,” Vassallo said. “Both the U.S. surgeon general and FEMA have declared blood donation as an essential function that cannot be disrupted. Not having enough blood to meet basic patient needs will cause yet another public health crisis. Please schedule your blood donation appointment today and remember to continue giving blood throughout the year.” To make an appointment, visit vitalant. org or call 1-877-25-VITAL (1-877-2584825).

Arizonans continues to show their commitment and support to nonprofits through their giving. We are excited for the 2020 Arizona Gives Day and to further showcase the important work our nonprofits are doing in our communities,” said Jennifer Purcell, vice president of community engagement of the Alliance of Arizona Nonprofits.

AROUND THE BLUHMIN’ TOWN

Social isolation continues BY JUDY BLUHM Foothills Focus Guest Writer

ocial isolation continues. The self-quarantine of Americans goes on with unexpected outcomes. Looking at social media gives us a snapshot of exactly what our neighbors, friends, family and fellow citizens are up to while staying at home. Cleaning. Yep, that oven has been neglected, the countertops need disinfecting and windows might need washing. Why stop there? Take all the bedding off and wash it. Those drapes need it, too! Nothing like getting serious about house cleaning. Come to think of it, my mother was of the mind that “spring cleaning” was next to Godliness and every March or April was the time to “get closer to God.” Organizing. That “junk drawer” needs attention. I went through mine and found a package of gum (we don’t chew gum), a missing bottle opener, a dozen pens that no longer have ink, and Post-It notes that are like clues to a story that cannot be deciphered. Closets need to be de-cluttered

and my husband, Doug, even organized the garage. Now that is epic. Cooking. As one post on social media reads, “We might survive the coronavirus but be 20 pounds heavier.” So true. I bought a Romertopf clay pot just before the social isolation and have tried so many new recipes that I feel like I am running a test kitchen. The cooking never ends! My girlfriend gave me a recipe for biscuits made with mayonnaise and they are the single best thing I have tasted in a while. I must “social distance” myself from the kitchen or this won’t end well. Phone calls and video chats. Families are talking numerous times throughout the day to “check in” and commiserate. “What are you doing today,” has become the new “hello.” We watch grandkids working at crafts, teenagers learning embroidering, and families singing and playing instruments together. The list of goofy and wonderful things we are seeing, doing and sharing is helping us stay connected. Work. For those in a forced “break,” it is time to plan, catch up on paperwork, keep up with the business news and communicate with clients. For those

who are exhausted and overworked, we support you, pray for you and give thanks daily. We want to help. Games. Yes, that old Monopoly game has been dusted off and set up on the dining table. An entire new generation of kids have become fans of the game that brought us Boardwalk and the thrill of passing “Go.” Money is funny, until you start running out because you are stuck paying taxes (familiar?) or can’t afford those steep rents. Nothing like a good board game to teach math and bring a family together! Pets. Our doggies are thrilled that they

get so many walks and time with their “hoomans.” Cats? They wonder why we have invaded their space. Prayer. My minister said that when we wash our hands, we should recite the Lord’s Prayer (it takes about 20-25 seconds). And with that, we are accomplishing two great things. Amen. Dear readers, this too shall pass. We may be isolated, but we are in this together.

THE FOOTHILLS FOCUS | APRIL 1, 2020

Holocaust survivor’s book applies in these times BY DAVID LEIBOWITZ Foothills Focus Columnist

he memoir will feel slight in your hands, only 165 pages long. Even so, for sheer insight per page, “Man’s Search for Meaning” has no rival among books written in the last 100 years. It is the story of Viktor Frankl, a psychiatrist from Vienna, and how he survived the Nazi death camps. It is a tale of extreme struggle, despair, loss, grief and the many ways in which life can challenge us. In other words, a perfect book for life in the face of COVID-19. I first read Frankl’s book while slogging through the crash of a marriage in my early 30s. The end of that relationship left me bitter, ashamed and feeling toxic on a daily basis. Reading about the victims of Auschwitz and their suffering provided some much-needed perspective.

The Nazis took away everything Frankl valued: His wife, his mother, his father, his brother, his possessions, everything down to the manuscript he considered his life’s work. What they could not steal was what Frankl describes as “the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.” Over the years, that quote has crossed my mind thousands of times: at the bedside of my mother as she wasted away in the hospital; in the face of professional disappointments and losses that made me angry, frustrated or despondent; while driving along the freeway and getting cut off by a moron; and over this past week, dealing with the fallout of the coronavirus outbreak. There’s liberation in the idea: that ultimately we all get to choose our own attitude, no matter what happens around us or to us, no matter how life tests us. Of course, Frankl wasn’t done dispens-

ing wisdom with one quote, which is why I have read his book at least once a year since the first time I picked it up. He writes eloquently about surviving the icy cold march to a work site by fixing his imagination upon the face of his wife as he stumbled along for miles. Her face, he explains, allowed him to grasp “the greatest secret that human poetry and human thought and belief” hold for us. “The salvation of man,” Frankl writes, “is through love and in love.” Re-reading the book again over the past few days, I found myself thinking, of all things, about a spat I witnessed in the grocery store: a grown man threatening an elderly woman for adding what he believed to be too many cans of soup to her shopping cart. Profanities flew. The old woman gave as good as she got. Eventually they went off in separate directions, trailing f-bombs in their wake, but not before the man delivered this pearl.

“B---h, you’ll be dead soon enough anyways.” Frankl, whose book covers far greater deprivation than a lack of Campbell’s chicken noodle in a can, writes with insight about suffering and how it can lead us to find meaning in our lives. Suffering pushes us to live in one of two ways, he writes. “(We) may remain brave, dignified and unselfish. Or in the bitter fight for self-preservation he may forget his human dignity and become no more than an animal.” For Frankl, finding meaning in life is the ultimate goal. Twice he quotes Nietzsche on the subject: “He who has a ‘why’ to live for can bear almost any ‘how.’” My thought: If the COVID-19 crisis tests us in the most profound ways, you’ll be glad you read the book. If not and I’m just being overly dramatic, you’ll be glad anyways. There are far worse ways to spend a couple hours in quarantine.

FINANCIAL FOCUS

Avoid touching retirement savings early

ou contribute to an IRA and 401(k) to help build the financial resources you’ll need to enjoy a comfortable retirement. But despite these funds being set aside for retirement, many investors use them before they retire. More than half of Americans tap into their retirement savings early, according to a survey from Magnify Money, a website focusing on financial topics. How can you avoid this problem? It’s obviously important to leave your retirement savings untouched, as much as possible, until retirement. You could spend two or three decades as a retiree, so you’ll need a lot of financial resources. Of course, it’s understandable why some people touch their retirement accounts early: According to the Magnify Money survey, about 23% did so to pay off debts, 17% to make down payments on a home, 11% to pay for college, and the rest for other reasons. While you also might consider these needs for taking an early withdrawal or loan from your retirement account, you’ve got good reasons for not touching your IRA or 401(k) before you retire. First, you may face tax penalties if you withdraw money from your IRA and 401(k) before 59 1/2, though there are exceptions. Also, if your withdrawals from your retirement ac-

counts are large enough, they could push you into a higher tax bracket. Plus, the longer you leave your money intact, the more you’ll probably have when you need it in retirement. Let’s use the survey results to look at some additional points you might evaluate before using funds from your retirement accounts for other purposes: • Paying off debts – You could consider using a 401(k) loan to pay down some high-interest rate debt, but this move assumes two things—one, you don’t plan on taking on additional high interest rate debt, and two, you plan on repaying the loan from your 401(k) within five years. If you don’t, you could face penalties. • Making a down payment on a home – The IRS allows first-time homebuyers to make a penalty-free withdrawal of $10,000 from an IRA to make a down payment on a home; however, taxes could still be owed. You might be better off by delaying the purchase of a home, giving you time to build up additional savings, held outside your retirement accounts, that could be used for the down payment.

• Paying for college – If you haven’t saved enough for a child approaching college, you might consider withdrawing from your retirement accounts to do so. If the funds are used for qualified education expenses, you may be able to withdraw from you IRA without paying a penalty; but again, taxes could be owed on the withdrawn funds. Alternatively, if you have more time, you could consider opening tax-advantaged 529 accounts for younger children to help pay for their education. As the name suggests, a retirement ac-

count is designed for retirement, so do whatever you can to protect it.

Are bidets in play in the era of COVID-19?

BY TOM SCANLON Foothills Focus Staff Writer

or decades a staple of European life, for some reason bidets have not caught on in America—even though many say they are cleaner and more environmentally friendly than traditional toilets. With empty shelves that just a month ago were heaped high with toilet paper, some may be rethinking the bidet system, which sprays water as a cleanser. Joe Morgan, owner of Desert Foothills Plumbing in Cave Creek, is planning to market bidet conversions. He said people haven’t been calling for bidet conversions since the COVID-19 outbreak, “But we have been seeing an uptick in general over the last several years. Morgan said the bidet models he sells and installs are “very reliable, very good products.” And, as he puts it, some are almost

futuristic. “You can walk into the room and the toilet opens for you. You do your business, then it washes you and dries you—a lot of the higher-end bidet seats have hot air blow dryers,” Morgan said. “Then you walk away and the lid closes.”

Bidet seats that fit on existing toilets cost between $900 and $1,500, “plus installation,” Morgan said. For an entirely new bidet system that replaces an existing toilet, the price tag runs $3,000 to $6,000, Morgan said. “Pulling out the old toilet and inserting a new, very high-end bidet is com-

plicated,” Morgan said. Vince Hils, owner of Custom Plumbing, which services North Phoenix, Cave Creek and Anthem, sells new bidet systems starting around $2,500 and ranging up to $5,000, plus installation. But, he noted, his plumbers are also using a low-budget system for people looking to customize a shower accessory. For this service, labor generally costs $200 to $300. Custom Plumbing also sells attachments that can be added to the toilet. For do-it-yourselfers, Tushy sells bidet seats for as low as $79. The company’s website (hellotushy. com) says the bidet seats take 10 minutes to install and “doesn’t require electricity or plumbing. Just unscrew the toilet seat, pop the Tushy on, connect to water, and you’re done.” According to marketplace.org, “Tushy saw its bidet sales skyrocket when consumers began to have a collective melt down about toilet paper scarcity. Founded by Miki Agrawal, Tushy makes portable, self-installable bidets, allowing users to clean themselves with water rather than toilet paper. Mashable.com reports bidet brands Omigo, Brondell and Tushy have increased sales by more than 10 times in recent weeks.

The balance of Earth, air, fire and water BY SHEA STANFIELD Foothills Focus Contributing Writer

rescott ceramicist Abby Brill has come into her own creative ability spinning the organic properties of Earth into breathtakingly beautiful, useful and artistic forms. Growing up in St. Louis, Brill encountered ceramics at John Burroughs School, known for its excellent art department. Not yet an academically motivated student or a sports fan, Brill took advantage of the advanced art classes, especially ceramics. She fell in love with the potter’s wheel and began honing her skills. Upon graduation, Brill went to Washington University, where she studied German. Her natural talent in languages developed into her acquiring six languages by her mid-20s. She continued her graduate work in Waldorf Education and became a certified Waldorf teacher. Brill feels fortunate to have been able to homeschool her three children in their primary years, focusing on lots of art and music for her kids, but taking a break from ceramics. She ran a bed and breakfast in Upstate New York and taught for a number of years at the Saratoga Springs Waldorf School. During this time, she also took classes at Skidmore College, known for its outstanding ceramics department. Leading the department was Regis Brodie, a nationally recognized ceramic artist who created a vibrant community of ceramicists who took evening classes. “The years I spent quietly toiling away in the corners of the studio were hugely formative for me,” Brill said. “I gained so much from watching the many other artists in the evening adult classes; it was such an inspiring com-

munity.” In 2010, Brill and her husband moved to Prescott to be closer to her aging mother. At this point, she created her

Brill also contributes a great deal of thought in the intersection between form and function—everything from handle placement to how spouts pour and the feel of the mug’s rim. All of it is designed to bring beauty, quality and purpose to everyday life. Brill’s pieces are user friendly and reasonably priced. Their beauty and craftsmanship have her customers returning year after year to purchase pieces for themselves or as gifts.

orraine Bossé-Smith knows the meaning of perseverance. Between balancing 80-hour work weeks in corporate America, an abusive relationship and her mother’s death, the Tramonto resident was at her breaking point—and then her health took a turn for the worst. After years of battling debilitating symptoms, Bossé-Smith was diagnosed with Lyme disease, a multisystem inflammatory disease caused by deer ticks. Not long after, she faced rheumatoid arthritis, which causes the immune system to attack the body’s tissues. “Hearing you have an incurable disease leaves you with an array of emotions,” Bossé-Smith recalled. Now, the author and business consultant is sharing her recoveries—and how she found strength through adversity—in the hopes of inspiring others. In her latest book, “Defy Your Diagnosis: Overcome Any Obstacle,” Bossé-Smith details how she conquered devastating life setbacks—from friendship betrayals, to abuse, to career heartaches and chronic pain—to find inner peace and happiness. “This book is for all the people who have been told they aren’t enough,” BosséSmith shared. “(Those) who experienced painful relationship breakups; who have been diagnosed with a disease and deal with chronic pain; who have lost their way and want to get their life back.” Through an authentic yet funny and practical approach, “Defy Your Diagnosis” highlights what Bossé-Smith called the FIT Life Formula. The formula is a method she used to not just cope with her struggles, but conquer them. “Without knowing it, I began creating a formula for overcoming any obstacle that I now call the FIT Life Formula: a founda-

tion in faith, insights into personal development, and tackling the tough stuff,” the author explained. “My strength came from my faith, but I needed the entire formula to defy my diagnosis,” she added. Through her FIT Leader Foundation, Bossé-Smith offers The FIT Leader Forum, an exclusive membership for executives looking to turn their defeats into triumphs, she explained. The forum allows participants to give and receive “intelligent and relevant feedback” from a wide range of experiences and backgrounds, according to the foundation website, while providing a “proven formula” for monthly strategy meetings designed to look at critical aspects of business and create real solutions. “My FIT Life Formula is how I defied every diagnosis thrown at me, and any

gan experiencing strange symptoms. She struggled with excruciating joint pain and swelling—after about nine months, the author could barely hold a glass of water in her hand. “I had the classic flu-like symptoms immediately upon being exposed to and covered in ticks,” she recalled. “As the dis-

ease progressed, I experienced incredible pain and swelling of all my joints, muscle fatigue to the point of being unable to walk up a flight of stairs, mental fog, horrible night sweats, sensitivity to light and sound.” After six years of frustration, BosséSmith was finally diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2006. Lyme disease is an infection caused by a bacterium in deer ticks and manifests itself as a multisystem inflammatory disorder. In its early, localized stage, the disease primarily affects the skin before spreading to the joints, nervous system and other organ systems. In 2010, Bossé-Smith reached a new milestone when all of her tests came back clean. “As crazy as it sounds, after living with pain for over nine years, I chose to run a marathon to celebrate,” she said. “I didn’t break any speed records, but my goal was to run pain free. “I enjoyed being able to do something doctor’s told me I never would do again— it was a victory run.” But by 2012, she was back in the doctor’s office—this time facing a new disorder. Bossé-Smith learned she had rheumatoid arthritis, a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the lining of the joints. The condition causes a painful swelling, which can eventually result in bone erosion and joint deformity and can damage a wide variety of body systems, including the skin, eyes, lungs, heart and blood vessels. “As a result of my hyper-immune system, I ended up with rheumatoid arthritis,” Bossé-Smith said. But, with the help of her life formula, Bossé-Smith managed to defy her diagnoses and has a clean bill of health. With some outside encouragement, she

started writing the script for her book in 2015, but “Defy Your Diagnosis” didn’t come to fruition until a few years later, she explained. “It sat for a couple of years until I realized I had to be brave enough to title the book ‘Defy Your Diagnosis’ because that is what I have done,” Bossé-Smith said. Having written eight books prior, this was not the author’s first rodeo—but it wasn’t easy. Bossé-Smith said writing “Defy” required her to relive some of her darkest moments. “(It) was a process of going back, and that was painful at times,” she recounted. “It brought up a lot of emotions, but I think in the end, that makes the book real and authentic. “As I shared about my many challenges, I was reminded that all my scars—physical and emotional—are reminders of my success…my ability to overcome any obstacle thrown at me.” Her latest book will be released on April 7 and can be purchased online at lorrainebosse-smith.com.

Traditions show dynamics among the family BY PASTOR DAVID BOWEN Standing Stones Community Church Standing Stones Christian Academy

pring break has never been a time for our family to get out of town, but it is a wonderful time for grandma to visit. One of the things my girls enjoy doing and I enjoy watching is having grandma share some of her famous family recipes. Oftentimes they are recreating recipes that grandma knows by heart, recipes that have been in the family for years. Grandma learned to cook from her mother, but she wasn’t taught to use tablespoons and cups. She learned by using a pinch of this and a dash of that. She was taught to cook by memory and by feel, which is the best part of watching this dynamic. There is the interaction from one generation to another—the interaction of a generation that appreciates home-cooked meals and fresh ingredients versus a modern gen-

eration that is used to processed food from a box. Cooking habits from the past are fascinating. Sharing meals together is always a special time. This is why Thanksgiving is so special—families gather together and cook. We sit down at the kitchen or dining room table together, talk and enjoy a meal. We share each other’s lives, learn new things and appreciating the old ways. When grandma shares stories of her childhood and of learning from her

grandma, who lived during the days of the Great Depression, lessons take on new life. It’s interesting to hear from a firsthand experience how great-grandma used to grow her own food because that was basically the only way anyone could afford to eat during the Depression. There were days and weeks full of hard work, food and a close-knit community. It’s quite an experience to witness how special meals become when you don’t open a box but you actually touch the dough and smell the ingredients, when your senses vibrate with the sights and smells of mixing and baking camp cookies. These are the cookies so big they could feed a whole camp! Those are grandma’s special cookies. Fresh baked pies, big pots of stew and soup, a pinch of this and a dash of that. The kitchen becomes a special place because what takes place when grandma is here is special. When her visit is over, the memories stay and are preserved for another gen-

eration to someday pass down. The experience has the whole family thinking everyone should at least grow something. Hearing the stories of the days when moms could not run down to the local grocery, but they had to learn to make use of anything they had on hand. During the Depression women used to can anything and everything from fruit and vegetables to meat. My girls had never heard of canning. My wife remembers her grandmother’s kitchen and the pantry being filled with rows of mason jars filled with a month’s worth of homemade meals. As spring break comes to an end and the grind of daily life invades the family setting, the challenge to keep those special moments will continue. Soon it will be back to hitting the drive-thru because we have to get to the next activity and cooking from a box because it’s quick and easy; but the days of preparing, cooking and enjoying grandma’s recipes can’t be pushed aside. It’s too special of a time.
