American Frame Founder Retires After 44 Years

Free healthy teeth

After 44 years, Ron Mickel, the founder of American Frame, has finally decided to hang it up (pun intended). Mickel is leaving the business, which began in 1973 selling mail-order frames, to his daughters, Laura Jajko and Dana Dunbar. American Frame is the country’s premier supplier of custom picture frames, mat boards, DIY framing supplies, and fine art printing services.

An important part of your health and longevity is centered around your mouth. It’s also important for socializing – you don’t want the effects of gingivitis or gum disease to take root and cause bad breath, bleeding gums or unsightly issues. Larger health problems can stem from issues that can likely be taken care of with a trip to the dentist. And now, you don’t even have to pay for it.

Mercy Health is offering free dental cleanings and screenings to patients 50 years or older. You don’t have to be a previous Mercy patient, you just have to make an appointment and fill out an application. 8:30amnoon. Thursdays. Mercy Health Senior Wellness Center, 545 Indiana Ave., 419-251-8930.

Merit House founder

By Pat Nowak

ohn Stone started working in nursing homes at the age of 15 when his dad and cousin bought an aging facility in Toledo’s Old West End. Many of his family members are also in the business; his great grandmother is Elizabeth Scott, founded the Elizabeth Scott Community after having been involved in nursing care. She converted her rural farm home into a long-term care facility. Her simple philosophy, “To care for residents like they are family,” still serves as the driving force behind our care.

The Merit House Senior Community building began as a 250-bed facility known as Villa North. It had three owners before becoming West Toledo Health Care. When Ohio’s bed tax forced an obsolete building into bankruptcy, Stone and his wife bought a 53-bed, two-thirds empty, decaying structure from the bank receiver on March 1, 2013. Since then they have renovated the building inside and out, adding 27 assisted living units with another 24 on the way.

What was your first job?

My first job was cleaning and painting metal working machinery for Yoder Machinery in Holland.

What health tip do you support?

I quit smoking six years ago– cold turkey.

Most memorable trip? I love taking cruises with my wife. Always the Caribbean in the winter/spring.

What is your self indulgence?

We put in a built-in pool at our home two years ago. I enjoy entertaining, grilling and the fire pit.

I have always wanted to … go on a guided elk hunt out West.

Beautiful scenery with the horses, and seeing big game has got to be a thrill.

What trait do you admire?

Hard work and honesty. People who work hard are most often honest as well as successful.

What is your pet peeve?

Bureaucracy. The increase in governmental regulation and the intrusion it represents is so entrenched most people don’t even recognize it anymore.

I try to treat people like I’d want to be treated if our roles were reversed.

What was a defining moment in your life? When I lost my job at 46. I had a wife and three children to support, and we have been blessed with good fortune and good people since.

What is your advice to a younger you? Don’t waste time on minutiae. Plan your work and work your plan and always remember to stay on good terms with the person in the mirror.

Who is someone you would like to meet? Almon Gibbs, the first Worshipful Master of Northern Light Lodge in Maumee, OH. I’d like to see what he thinks of his lodge 200 years later.

What inspires you?

I am a very optimistic person so thinking about a better, stronger America inspires and excites me. I believe our brightest days are ahead of us.

ow much is that doggie, cat or guinea pig in the window?

You know the ones with the waggly tails? The good news is that doggie, cat or other pet may be worth its price in gold.

“The key to having a pet is to select the right pet for the family circumstance… pets are not one size fits all,” said Dr. Robert Esplin, a doctor of veterinary medicine for 47 years.

Dr. Bob, as he is known, founded SylvaniaVET, 4801 N. Holland-Sylvania Rd. in Sylvania in 1974.

Selecting a pet Tina Ferner, professional dog trainer and owner of Canine Karma, 6128 Merger Dr. in Holland, agrees that selecting the right pet for the right situation is important. “I have several clients in their 70s who are strong, healthy and vital but they have gotten large dogs like a German Shepherd” so they struggle staying on their feet while walking their dogs, Ferner

Pet Parade

What is the right pet for me? said. Another questionable decision is owning a large dog when you live in an apartment or efficiency.

Also, though puppies are cute, cuddly and playful, Ferner said, “puppies are an enormous amount of work” and require patience and training. Adopting an older and quieter dog should be a consideration. The upside of adopting a cat is that cats can live their lives indoors, offer affection, companionship and keep themselves clean. The downside is that their litter box still needs to be changed regularly.

The American Veterinary Medical Association website avma.org lists companion animals as dogs, cats, birds and horses, as well as specialty and exotic animals including fish, ferrets, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs and an array of other animals.

Benefits and Concerns Focusing on the 55-and-over population, Dr. Bob says, “There are huge studies that show seniors live longer if

they have pets in their lives.”

According to research at petsfortheelderly.org, older pet owners experience the following benefits Dr. Bob said another benefit for seniors owning a pet(s) is “when they pet their pets, one of the really cool things that happen is their blood pressure drops.”

However, there are downsides to owning pets. Dr. Bob said, “Pets just don’t live long enough.

In most cases we outlive our pets.”

Plan for the expenses, because having a pet is not free. Pet health insurance can help tremendously.

Owning a pet has much to offer.

Benefits of owning a pet: n

Reduces the risk for heart disease

n

Lowers blood pressure and triglyceride and cholesterol levels

n

Offers physical benefits (walking your dog)

n

Provides for psychological needs (unconditional love)

From 12-5pm Sunday, September 17, SylvaniaVET will be holding Lilly’s Pet-Palooza in celebration of the human-animal bond. Each Sunday at 6:30pm Canine Karma has a group walk at Swan Creek Preserve Metropark with the focus on decreasing canine’s behavioral problems such as fear and reactivity.

You can reach Dr. Bob at 419-885-4421 and Tina Ferner at 419-290-8237 or visit their websites at sylvaniavet.com and caninekarma.org.

Heartworm Prevention This month we tackle the importance of year-round heartworm and internal parasite protection for your dog or cat.

Heartworm is a mosquitotransmitted disease that affects dogs and cats. NW Ohio is endemic for this serious cardiovascular disease. The first case of heartworm diagnosed north of the Mason-Dixon line was in Bowling Green in the mid-’60s.

Intestinal parasites, roundworm, hookworm, whipworm are also endemic to our region.

Testing is key All dogs should be tested yearly for heartworm regardless of preventive history. All dogs should be given oral monthly preventive year-round. New data

shows if medication is stopped it takes up to three months to reestablish full protection. Prevention is obviously the best medicine but a positive-heartworm dog can be treated successfully.

Cats, even 100 percent indoor cats, need heartworm protection.

An early study on cat heartworm showed 30 percent of positive cats never went outside. There is no treatment for a heartworm positive cat so routine testing is not indicated. The lack of safe, effective treatment for feline heartworm disease emphasizes the importance of preventive medication.

Clinical signs of heartworm in dogs are coughing, exercise intolerance, increased respirations. In cats, respiratory signs do occur but strangely chronic vomiting is associated also. Sudden death is also a sign of cat heartworm disease.

Recommendations SylvaniaVET recommends the brand name products Interceptor Plus and Heartgard Plus for dogs.

Revolution topical is our number one recommendation for cats. We do not recommend the six-month duration injection. All dogs and cats should be on monthly medications year-round.

Travel Europe Through the Eyes of a Grandchild Grandparents can survive

By Pat Nowak When my grandson Liam was a freshman in high school, we talked about going to Europe when he graduated– a time that was four years away. Well, those years went by in a flash and as graduation approached, we made plans for the European vacation. I took my husband along and Liam brought a friend, Jake.

We carefully made plans to include Cannes, Monte Carlo, Paris and London. With a bit of luck we were in Cannes for the annual film festival and Monte Carlo for the Grand Prix. The boys loved Cannes and made their way nightly to the theater to see the actors going into the screenings. They quickly discovered the cuisine delights of southern France and within hours were off on their own– not wanting interference from grandparents.

Not as planned, but the best way While this is not the trip I pictured (in my mind we would discover all the pleasant spots together), it ended up to be the best way for 18-year-olds to travel– letting them discover what was important for them to see.

After southern France we introduced them to high-speed rail service by traveling to Paris. After the calmness of Cannes, Paris was overwhelming. There was so much to see and do.

Here we did some things together, visiting the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower, then went our separate ways as they learned about the fabulous places to shop– Galleries Lafayette and unique boutiques. The people in the city were wonderful– so much kindness and not a hint of arrogance.

L-R, Jacob Dearth, Steve Roberts holding MLiving, and Liam Glover with George V restaurant waiter on the Champs Elysee

Jacob Dearth and Liam Glover, indications of a tiring trip.

As members of Generation Z, their technology skills are amazing. With a few keystrokes they had a GPS system and their travels on Instagram, allowing their friends to keep track of their fun.

We had to make alternative arrangements for a visit to the ChampsÉlysées when it was closed down because Putin, the Russian president, was in France for meetings. We had a great time exploring “The City of Lights.” While they loved Paris, they thought the city would likely best be enjoyed at an older age.

Through the Chunnel

Another high-speed rail trip took us to London. The boys looked forward to traveling through the Chunnel (I was definitely not), but were severely disappointed because it is not the underwater aquarium they thought it would be.

Our trip to London was nice– a huge city of over 8 million, it is so massive to conquer in one trip. We had the unfortunate experience of being in the city as it suffered a terrorist attack. My husband and I were at the London Bridge on Friday and the boys were in the vicinity right before the attack that Saturday, June 3. An

10

efficient town, London handled this with a calm manner.

The day after the attack we were on our way home. Both boys exclaimed it was the best trip ever, and I have to agree.

TIPS FOR TRAVELING WITH KIDS

G

randparents and grandchildren have a special bond– this trip is memorable for me. And now, my granddaughter Rae, Liam’s sister, is making plans for her graduation trip in the summer of 2019.

They are young adults and can no longer be treated as children; they can find their way by bus, foot or other means.

What they would like to see and do is different from my ideas, so the best thing to do is let them make their own plans with definite check-in times.

Make sure they understand a protocol for communication in case of emergency.

Finance Flying High

Easing the Challenges of Airline Travel

By Chris Watson

When it comes to air travel, comfort, glamour, even safety seem to have flown from the travel experience at jet speed. More and more people are complaining about the waits, the space, the treatment, the expense and the entire experience. Given its constraints, air travel can elevate concerns beyond just being uncomfortable; it can raise health concerns as well and these issues can also get costly These issues can be mitigated and, in some cases, even eliminated if we follow a few simple rules and take full advantage of expertise that most of us already have at our disposal.

Consult your doctor

As we age, a variety of activities are accompanied by the caveat “consult your doctor.” Air travel is no different, especially if you have medical devices or certain medical conditions.

Recent surgeries, illnesses, or major medication changes warrant a consult before flying. Circulatory problems in particular demand a conversation. For all long flights, regardless of our circulatory health, simple exercises can help with circulation issues.

Besides recent health changes, many managed health conditions can be affected by flight, including medication schedules. It is a good idea to speak with your physician about how to manage meds.

In addition to your doctor, you may seek out other professionals who can help with your air travel. Pharmacists are a world of information and an underutilized healthcare resource.

They may have over-the-counter ideas that will help ease the harsh cabin environment of travel. Likewise, gather advice from other wellness providers you may use, including chiropractors, massage therapists and even fitness experts.

12

Use Your Resources

Some of us want to avoid being the person who boards early or uses a wheelchair. We all want to feel independent. However, airports and planes are foreign spaces and are often not mobility friendly. In our dayto-day lives we manage and navigate with ease, due mostly to making wise choices about how and where to conduct our business. In an airport those choices are mostly removed. So, if you need it, ride through the airport on a cart. The service is free.

In today’s Do-it-yourself world we have forgotten about travel agents, who are an immense asset to the mature traveler. They can put together easier flight schedules, look for passenger friendly planes and carriers, arrange ground transportation, and easily flag special needs with the airlines. Most independent agents will also track your entire trip, helping you prepare and act as a one-phonecall-away resource during your travels.

Many think using a travel agent might be costly but that if a fallacy. They can actually save you money as they have the resources you need readily available and don’t forget the travel insurance - it becomes a must with those over 55 to insure that you are covered in case of misfortune.

Air travel is physically taxing and, as we age, it becomes more so. However, with preparation, planning, and above all, a willingness to utilize available resources, air travel doesn’t have to be so difficult. With a few preparations the world is still just a flight or two away.

The Raspberries

rave about a local Cleveland band called The Raspberries that would play the Cleveland Agora on Saturdays and Sundays. Well, it just so happened that the Cleveland Raspberries were playing the Toledo Agora that night. They took the stage, looking like college kids themselves. From the first chord we knew we were in for an extraordinary night.

They did mostly Beatles’ covers. They were impeccable and their harmonies were so good it was like they came from another A memorable date planet. For two straight All the planets must “It feels so hours the dance floor was have been aligned. I had right (feels so jammed. I knew I was to beg a lot, but I was right)... being hearing and seeing genius able to garner the date in front of me. Their lead with the beautiful girl; with you singer had one of the best her name was Karen. here tonight” voices I had ever heard– We have been married that was Eric Carmen.

So where do great drummer and super I take Karen on this hot bass. To call this a good time would be summer night in Toledo? The Agora a true understatement.

- Toledo on the corner of Dorr Street The Raspberries went on to sell and Byrne Road, was opened because millions of records starting in 1972. of the the popularity of the Agora They released their first album with club in Cleveland (the Greek word a scratch-and-sniff raspberry sticker. for place to assemble) was an incredThey had 10 hits.

John Lennon was reoriginal in Cleveland. cording in a studio down the hallway In the summer of ’71 it was that from the Raspberries one day, and and much more. My mom let me use he liked what he heard so much her car for my date– a Ford Ltd, that that he walked into their studio was so luxurious inside you could live and asked if he could help produce in it. I put $2 of gas in the car and the song, which he did. It is called admission into the Agora was a total “Overnight Sensation.” of $2.

Rolling Stone magazine called the Raspberries the best power pop band Meet the Raspberries of the ’70s.

Many of my college football teammates from the Cleveland area would It was a hot summer night in Toledo in 1971. The kind of summer where boredom had set in while working a summer job and participating in football practice while I waited for the next college school year to start. The kind of summer that Bob Seger wrote about— where you were looking to relax and have some fun and maybe, just maybe, have a trifecta, a beverage or two, listen to some great music and have a date with a beautiful girl who liked to dance.

If you’ve never heard of the Raspberries, go to YouTube– all their incredible music is there. My advice: turn it up, and the songs will take you back instantly to warm summer nights when music mattered.

Health Alcohol Abuse and Seniors

Widowers have highest rate of alcoholism

by Stephen Roberts PhD It is a misconception to believe that older adults do not frequently use alcohol and drugs, according to Dr. Alexis Kuerbisin, writing in the journal Clinical Geriatric Medicine. Research indicates that the use of substances among people 60 and older has been underestimated for decades. The reality is that the need for substance abuse treatment will continue to grow substantially among older generations.

Senior Stats

One of the areas where seniors have a problem is with at-risk drinking. At-risk drinking is defined as more than three drinks on one occasion or more than seven drinks per week. For men 60 and older an estimated 60 percent are at-risk drinkers and for women approximately 11 percent are at-risk drinkers.

A significant number of older adults are binge drinkers, which is usually defined as five or more drinks in one drinking session. Approximately 20 percent of men are felt to binge drink at the present time along with a little over 6 percent of women.

The National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence provides data confirming that alcohol abuse is a significant problem for older adults. n 2.5 million have an alcohol or other drug problem. n At least 6 percent of older adult hospital stays are due to alcohol or other drug problems. n Men over the age of 75 who have lost their wives have the highest rate of alcoholism. n Almost 50 percent of seniors who live in nursing homes have alcohol-related problems. n The hospitalization rate for alcohol-related problems is the same as for heart attacks. n Older adults are less able to process alcohol efficiently.

According to the Centers of Disease Control problems that are caused or made worse by overuse of alcohol among seniors include the following:

Injuries, falls, drowning and auto crashes n Violence n Risky sexual behaviors n High blood pressure and heart disease including atrial fibrillation n Cancer of breast, throat, colon and others n Mental health problems including cognitive decline n

The Hazelden Addiction Treatment center indicates that early signs of alcoholism and other drugs of abuse include: Going to many events where drinking is accepted/expected n Keeping drinking hidden n Having a routine of drinking around dinner which is an important part of the day n Having a lot of beer and alcohol bottles n Having burns and bruises n Being irrationally fearful and stressed n Being depressed and hostile n Losing memory n

Suggested approach Linda Yarick, PhD, an addiction practitioner in the Toledo area and Michigan for the past 24 years, suggests helping the problematic drinker by carrying out a non-threatening intervention with friends and family who care about the individual. This is probably best done with a professional, with the goal that the individual with alcohol issues starts thinking of changing behaviors.

During this process do not become demanding, punitive or aggressive. Yarick indicates that we should try to understand why they are where they are with their drinking.

According to Yarick, if the intervention is successful, the individual’s next step is get a referral for an assessment to determine risk level, consumption patterns and the level of treatment needed. Treatment possibilities range from detox, inpatient to outpatient treatment and attending AA meetings.

Will Travel for (Good) Food

Sunset Bistro serves the best of Bowling Green

The green light in honor of vets.

By Jeff Klima How far will you travel for a great meal? On a weeknight, Bowling Green sounds just about right. Buried in a nondescript shopping center next to a notable bakery, Stimmel’s Market, Sunset Bistro is unassumingly one of the best meals you’ll find in town. As you leave, you’ll look behind you and think, “Wow, I didn’t see that coming.”

There isn’t anything that owner Prudence “Prudy” Brott and her kitchen manager Chris Schnee don’t put their own special flair on, from steaks to vegetarian options to flatbreads and pasta dishes. “I’ve always been involved in restaurant work— both sets of grandparents owned restaurants, so it’s always been in the blood,” said Prudy of her culinary background.

Born and raised in Bowling Green, Prudy moved out to Colorado to work for a major restaurant operation.

“When I moved back home, I wanted to bring home some of the Colorado feel— where the concentration is on putting your everyday items together in a unique way.” The result is Sunset Bistro, which opened in April 2015.

Fresh and healthy

“We do a lot of healthy options, quinoa, big salads . . .

Our whole menu can be done gluten free. People have all sorts of restrictions in their diets and we try to cater to that,” says Prudy, herself a vegetarian. And it goes the other way as well: any vegetarian option can have meat added to it, so you can have just what you want, the way you want it.

Another focus is freshness. As Prudy tells it, “I get a delivery ( of fresh foods) four days a week, so we’re almost out of everything all the time. Everything is nice and fresh and made daily.” And when they can, they grow their own vegetables.

Although the bistro redid its menu six months ago, the clientele is so varied in their tastes, the restaurant didn’t get rid of anything, and instead added 15 new items. Prudy says they are known for the fried cauliflower, a must-get appetizer. Another must-try: the flatbreads. “They are different because they’re not thin and crispy; they’re kind of a thicker, doughier style.”

Calling the ‘soup list’

One of the major draws of Sunset Bistro is its hospitality– from its friendly and attentive wait staff (our server would not let our glasses get empty) to the willingness to give out recipes, to what might be its most novel practice: the soup list. Sunset Bistro makes some of the best soups you will ever take a spoon to– the Cream of Mushroom, in

particular, deserves special mention. But they don’t make their varieties of soups or specials or their cakes everyday.

Rather than having you call in to ask if a certain item is available (which is fine as well), they will add your name and specialized item of choice to their call list. When it’s available, you will get a call, so you never miss out on your favorite items. That level of personalized service alone warrants your patronage.

The green light

Veterans are extra special to Prudy’s heart. In addition to a 10 percent veteran discount, she keeps a green light lit in the window in honor of those who have served. Her father, who passed away in December 2014 from Agent Orange complications, was a Vietnam combat veteran.

As a result, Sunset Bistro commits to fundraising events several times a year that benefit organizations such as the VA hospital in Ann Arbor, MI. Upcoming is the Bistro’s third annual Dave Brott Memorial Bike Run fundraiser (in memory of Prudy’s father), Saturday, August 12, with proceeds going to the Vietnam Veterans of America. “We do what we can,” says Prudy.

The restaurant’s newly opened patio space is conducive to casual outdoor summer dining, and if you want to live it up, they have musicians play on Fridays and a brunch menu on Sundays. The bottom line: whatever you’re looking for, you’ll probably find it at Sunset Bistro.

Luna Pier Lovely

By Pat Nowak Bob and Bonnie Boes

Just a short drive up I-75 there is a small town, Luna Pier-incorporated in 1963, that reminds you of areas you might find in the Northeast. After owning a condo and a cottage and considering a move to Florida, Bob and Bonnie Boes decided that Lake Erie beckoned. They built their dream lake house in Luna Pier– close to Toledo, yet with all the amenities of being on the water.

Built by Jim Moline, their spacious stone house at the water’s edge features a lake patio and an upstairs outdoor porch that is accessed from the den. A sea of windows along the back of the house allows them to have the perfect view. Nautical touches are prevalent in this gorgeous home, decorated with shades of the sea and natural accompaniments.

The kitchen is fabulous– the island is massive and the open concept flows well into the dining area.

The bathrooms are artfully painted with decorative touches and the sink area is a unique blending of furniture and glass.

Living on a lake is always comforting and this home would be hard to leave– it is a nautical dream.
