Exposed and examined: Opioid epidemic forum set for Sept. 15 By Terry McSweeney
(Editor’s note: Terry will host “The Forum on the Opioid Crisis” with the support of Valley Community Newspapers on Saturday, Sept. 15 from 1:30-4:30 p.m. at the Pocket Library. September is Pain Awareness Month. This is part one in a series on various aspects of the opioid crisis.) Opioid Relief? Opioid Abuse? There are over 137 million people in the United States who suffer with chronic conditions, which lasts 3 or more months. Ten million of those people have fibromyalgia, a chronic neurological condition which comes with all over body pain, fatigue, sleep issues, and brain fog. (https:// www.fmcpaware.org/). I am one of those 10 million people. I didn’t ask to be one of those people, but I am and found myself looking for answers to relieve myself of my constant pain. There is one problem though, Fibromyalgia is an invisible illness that has left me facing doubters, among them some of the doctors and nurses in the emergency room. It has been at least two years ago now. I had been tossing and turning for hours, not wanting to wake my husband up because it was 3a.m., but I had no choice since my pain was so severe. We headed to the emergency room. When we arrived two nurses came to help me on to the gurney and asked how they could help. I told them about my severe sciatic pain and then I told them I had “Fibromyalgia.” Their cordial and caring tones immediately changed. They left me lying in pain on the gurney wondering where they had gone. They disappeared and I never saw their “caring” faces again. Later a doctor came in and asked me what I wanted. I said, “relief.” She said, “You know we can’t give you “stronger” drugs if that is what you are looking for.” I knew what she meant, “Opioids.” She thought I was a “drug seeker.” I felt I was being treated as if I were a criminal, a drug addict, rather than a person that was simply looking for pain relief for a chronic condition. This doctor left me feeling degraded and still in pain. My eyes began to well up, not because of my pain, but because of the way this doctor made me feel. Now I not only had my physical pain, but my heart was breaking because of how I was being treated. Not everyone who goes into the E.R. is seeking opioids. Eventually I was given some medication for relief, but not before I was humiliated and treated with total disrespect. I know that there are those who go to the E.R. seeking “strong” pain relief, but I was not one of them. I know there are people who are in such terrible pain that they do seek out any way they can to get
“I felt I was being treated as if I were a criminal, a drug addict, rather than a person that was simply looking for pain relief for a chronic condition.” –Terry McSweeney the drugs. Shouldn’t they get the help they need to relieve their pain and get off of these drugs? Shouldn’t those who do not abuse these drugs but who truly need them be given the drugs with the guidance they need to use them? Since that day, I have not been to the E.R., even when I probably should have gone. I never want to feel that humiliation again. What I have done is become more involved in helping those with fibromyalgia, making others aware that having an invisible illness does not make us invisible, that we are real people with real pain. Using opioids for pain does not make us criminals, it makes us people who need help either for extreme pain relief or to find ways to get off of these drugs without losing our lives. Doctors and nurses in the E.R. need to be part of the solution, not part of the problem. Terry McSweeney is a Certified Fibromyalgia Advisor, Graduate of the International Fibromyalgia Coaching Institute, Founder of Fibromyalgia Pathways.com, Founder of the Sacramento Fibromyalgia Support Group, Member of Leaders Against Pain in conjunction with the National Fibromyalgia & Chronic Pain Association, and Chairperson of the Sacramento Together Walks for Fibromyalgia Awareness held each May.

San Juan School District’s Newest Elementary Greer Elementary Broke Ground May 30, 2018 By Jan Dalske
San Juan Unified School District broke ground today on a major campus renovation construction at Greer Elementary School. Greer Elementary, located at 2301 Hurley Way, serves as one of San Juan Unified School District (SJUSD) most diverse and socio-economically disadvantaged neighborhoods. Its current campus was assessed in the District’s Facilities Master Plan as needing a full renovation or rebuild. Greer is one of three new campuses or major renovations that will break ground in the Arden/Arcade neighborhood in 2018. The future campus will be built in five phases. The phases include the complete renovation of two class room wings, as well as brand new construction of a kindergarten wing, a multi-purpose room and an administration building. Key features in all classrooms are spaces for collaboration, moveable furniture, multiple writing walls, and access to technology. The future campus design includes a new parking lot and entrance on Bell Street. The old entrance off of Hurley Way will be relocated.
Valley Community Newspapers, Inc.
Some of the attendees at the ground breaking had these comments to share: “I’m really excited for the changes that are going to happen at Greer,” said student Arrie Watts. “It’s exciting to think about all the new things coming to us, like update classrooms, a new science lab, an outdoor art area with shade and of course a new playground.” “Knowing that our children are going to have a safer campus, new classrooms, updated buildings, more enriching learning places and improved recreational equipment makes me even more thrilled to have my son here,” said Sharie Peterson, mother of a Greer kindergartener. “It’s not often that our students get to call something brand new their very own,” Principal Amy Rovai Gregory said. “This new campus is going to bring a new since of pride to our school and our community.” Greer’s campus is designed by Nacht & Lewis Architects and will be built by Otto Construction. Otto Construction was founded in 1947 by John F. Otto and has remained a family-owned business for three generations. Otto continues to uphold their founding standards of building relationships
and delivering quality projects with trust, teamwork, and dedication. Otto has built many notable projects in the region including the Sacramento International Airport Terminal A Parking Garage and Food Court Renovation, California Lottery Headquarters, L Street Lofts, Sacramento State Riverview Hall, UC Davis Memorial Union Renewal, and multiple projects at the Sacramento Zoo. They are currently the contractor for the Powerhouse Science Center, Cosumnes River College – College Center Expansion, Greer Elementary School Moderniza-
tion, and UC Davis Tercero Dining Commons 2. The school project is being funded by community approved bonds. Measure N was passed in 2012 with 60.20 % of the vote. Measure N, the Technology, Science, and Permanent Classroom School Bond will raise $350 million to make much-needed improvements to every school in the San Juan Unified School District, making our local schools eligible for millions of dollars in additional state and federal matching funds.

Jesuit students took first place in Greater Sacramento California Mayors Cyber Cup Challenge What’s the best part about winning a competition? The trophy, of course. But in the case of the California Mayors Cyber Cup Challenge, the winning team took just as much pride in giving the trophy as it did in receiving one. A team of students from Jesuit High School took first place in the Greater Sacramento California Mayors Cyber Cup Challenge in April. On May 17, the team presented the perpetual cyber cup trophy to Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg. The trophy will remain on display at the mayor’s office until next year’s competition as a way to spread awareness about cybersecurity education. There is a strong demand for cybersecurity professionals throughout California, and partnerships are crucial to meeting that demand. As a step toward that goal, the California Cyberhub brought together stakeholders from business, government and education for California Mayors Cyber Cup Challenge events throughout the state. Cybersecurity education is a growing movement and one that everyone can join. Students, teachers, parents and community members do not need to have any previous technical experience or cybersecurity knowledge to get involved in a cyber competition. That was precisely the case at Jesuit High School, where team captains Casey Honaker, Peter Sutarjo and William Heisinger said they’ve been proud to see their team grow over the past four years.

“We started as a small club of five people who didn’t know a lot and over four years we grew to 18 members, fielding three full teams,” they said. “The reason we’re able to grow was through the dedication and hard work of our team members. It was just high schoolers working hard to accomplish a goal as a team.” Jesuit High School cyber coaches Justin Tsai and Aimee Staats said the cybersecurity is a focal point of the school’s curriculum, and events like the California Mayors Cyber Cup Challenge provide an opportunity for students to put what they learn in the classroom into action. “Industry certifications and competitions like CyberPatriot, California Mayors Cyber Cup Challenge, and California Cyber Innovation Challenge provide the opportunities to engage young men and women who are passionate about these cutting-edge career fields,” Tsai and Staats said. “We are grateful for the commitment of our team members and the continuing support and guidance from our mentors and our regional coordinator, Sean McNally. We are appreciative of all those who work tirelessly behind the scenes so we may have wonderful opportunities such as this recognition of our excellence.” Cyber competitors come from all walks of life and represent the best and brightest of what California has to offer. Daunting cybersecurity challenges face our communities and businesses, but students across California

From left to right: Scott Young (Director, California CyberHub), Justin Covairt, Michael Wood (Jesuit HS Principal, William Heisinger, Jovin Thomas, Mayor Darrell Steinberg, Michael Honaker, Donovan Jasper, Justin Tsai (Jesuit HS Coach), Joshua Chou, Sean McNally (Advisor, California CyberHub), Aimee Staats (Jesuit HS Coach), Markus Geissler (Deputy Sector Navigator, Information & Communication Technologies/Digital Media, Greater Sacramento Region)
are receiving the training necessary to conquer them. Much like the students collaborated on their cyber challenges, these groups are working together to ensure that students from all backgrounds have access to the tools that will prepare them to fill the demand for cybersecurity workers in California. During the trophy presentation ceremony, Mayor Steinberg told the students about the City of Sacramento’s Thousand Strong Initiative to provide skills-building work experience to area youth through internships, likening it to the in-demand cybersecurity skills the students developed in preparation for the California Mayors Cyber Cup Challenge. Markus Geissler, California Community Colleges Deputy Sector
Navigator for Information Communication Technologies and Digital Media in the Greater Sacramento Region, said the California Mayors Cyber Cup Challenge also provided an opportunity for students to visit Sierra College and picture themselves as college students one day. “Many students have seen a college campus before, but not all of them, so this was a great way to bring students to a community college campus,” Geissler said. Assemblyman Kevin Kiley said the event helped make the community aware of cybersecurity threats and how to solve them through education and collaboration. See Cyber Cup Challenge, page 5

Cyber Cup Challenge: Continued from page 4
“California Mayors Cyber Cup competitions foster the next generation of cybersecurity professionals by bringing together students with leaders in government and industry,� Kiley said. “This collaborative approach ensures a holistic understanding of security challenges while promoting communitywide awareness of cybersecurity issues.� Keith Tresh, commander of the California Cybersecurity Integration Center in the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services, said he was impressed by the students he saw at the competition and that the need for welltrained cybersecurity professionals has never been greater. “It’s really cool to see that this generation is looking at this kind of work and excelling at it,� Tresh said. “Cybersecurity is an insurance policy, and people are now realizing that if you don’t have that insurance policy in place, it can have a dramatic impact on a company.� The California Cyberhub is promoting participation in camps and new coach training being held throughout the summer to build on the energy generated at the California Mayors Cyber Cup Challenge and bring cybersecurity education to even more students across the state. Attending a camp or workshop is a great way to learn more about cybersecurity and the path toward a steady, high-paying job in California. We welcome all students at our events and are eager to partner with community organizations to increase access to these programs. For more information, visit https://ca-cyberhub.org/cyber-camps.

yes vote on Measure N our schools would have lost this critical funding. This measure will help prepare students for the jobs of tomorrow by funding the replacement of leaky old portables with new modern classrooms, adding or upgrading science labs, reducing classroom overcrowding and enhancing student learning. Bond funded improvements to our schools, most of which are more than 50 years old, will also reduce district operating costs saving money that can then be spent on students and learning. Measure P passed in 2016 with 69.45 %. The text of this measure stated: San Juan Unified School District Classroom Repair/ Student Safety Measure: To repair/upgrade all schools by repairing aging and deteriorating classrooms, bathrooms, and leaky roofs,
plumbing and drinking fountains, water pipes, electrical wiring, upgrading classroom technology, math, science and computer labs, vocational education classrooms, and outdated fire safety, security systems; removing asbestos and lead
paint, and repairing, constructing and acquiring education facilities and equipment. SJUSD shall issue $750,000,000 in bonds at legal rates, require annual independent financial audits, citizens’ oversight, and keep all funds local.

Fair Oaks Theatre Festival’s classic musical ‘Mary Poppins’ brings family fun and magic to the theatre under the stars!
TUESDAY, JULY 10 READ TO A DOG – Practice your reading and visit with a therapy dog the second Tuesday of every month! For school-age children. July 10 at 3:30 p.m. at Arcade Library, 2443 Marconi Ave., Sacramento.
Fair Oaks Theatre Festival is excited to announce an extended run of our summer production Mary Poppins, directed by Michael Coleman. Based on the books by P.L. Travers and the classic Walt Disney film, Mary Poppins received nominations for nine Olivier and seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical. Mary Poppins is an enchanting mixture of irresistible story and unforgettable songs. Set in Edwardian London Jane and Michael, the two naughty Banks children, have sent many a nanny packing before Mary Poppins arrives on their doorstep. Using a combination of magic and common sense, she must teach the family members how to value each other again. Mary Poppins takes the children on many magical and memorable adventures, but Jane and Michael aren’t the only ones upon whom she has a profound effect. Even grown-ups can learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that “Anything can happen if you let it.” Mary Poppins runs Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, June 15 through August 5, 2018. (No show Sunday July 29) at the Veteran’s Memorial Amphitheater, 7991 California Ave, Fair Oaks. Play starts at 8 pm. Ticket Prices: General $18, Students and seniors (60 and over) $15, Children (12 and under) $10. No show July 29.

FIX A LEAK WEEK CHECKLIST � Check all your faucets and showerheads for drips ��Do the dye test. Add some dye tablets or food
coloring to your toilet’s tank. If colored water appears in the bowl within 15 minutes, there’s a leak in the flap ��Set up a free SSWD Water-Wise House Call to
get expert advice and help finding leaks. Call (916) 972-7171 or visit SSWD.org to schedule your house call today.
And remember to check and fix leaks throughout the year!
