VIEWPOINT
LESSONS OF CHILDHOOD By Charles D. “Pedro” Williams, M.D., FACR, FAAP I often close my eyes and remember the lessons of childhood. They remain as clear as if I heard them yesterday. There is no fence around the memory of time. Mama tried to help Pedro in his childhood to prepare and get ready for the hardships, disappointments, challenges and realities of adult life. Mama wanted Pedro to keep learnin’ and benefiting from his experiences throughout childhood. She said that we’re never too old to learn something stupid. She said that it was okay to dream dreams, but a person needed to be willing to pay the price to see them come true. She told Pedro that it was smarter to plow around a stump than through it and that weak things would become strong if we stuck together. Mama knew that she wouldn’t be with us kids forever and she took every opportunity she had to share her feelings and express her opinions. Mama spent a lot of time around the supper table telling Pedro about life, growin’ up, and manners. She told Pedro not to eat with his fingers and never to talk with his fork. One time Mama asked Pedro if he would like some beans. Pedro replied, “No.” Mama said, “No what?” Pedro then said, “No beans.” Mama spent a lot of time talkin’ about politeness and that he should have said, “No ma’am.” She then asked Pedro, “Which piece of chicken do you want?” Pedro replied that he wanted the biggest piece. Mama then pointed out that Pedro should be polite and take the smallest piece. Pedro then asked, “Mama, should I lie or be polite?” Mama said that we’d talk about this later and we never did. Some memories stand out more than others. As a kid Pedro’s most favorite dogs were Pete and Repete. They were one-tenth chow and ninetenth something else. They weren’t pure bred, but they were from a nice neighborhood and they loved Pedro. The dogs and Pedro chased squirrels together. It hurt Pedro deeply when Pete got killed by a rattlesnake and Pedro cried. It was one of those
wipe-your-tears-and-blow-your-nose type days. Emmett said, “Pedro, I wouldn’t cry like that if I were you.” Pedro replied, “Emmett, you can cry any way you like, but this is the way I cry.” On that day Pedro did not play. It was hard to have fun with tears in your eyes. It was tough to play hide-in-go-seek or do anything that was fun when you can’t see through your tears. Mama said that sometimes little boys are given dogs for a little while so they could learn about life, about death, about growin’ up, and about becoming strong. She said that Pedro was her little man and that it was okay for her little man to cry. She said that some things we can never prepare for. That’s the way that she had it figgered. One of Pedro’s biggest lessons came at age 11. Pedro remembered it well ‘cause that was the year he got glasses. Glasses kept the big boys from hittin’ him and the girls from kissin’ him. However, the big boys were laughing at Pedro’s right foot ‘cause the sole of his shoe was loose and flapping. When Pedro got home from school he asked Mama why he couldn’t get gifts like new shoes like the other kids. Mama wudn’t able to speak. She put her cheek next to Pedro’s cheek and Pedro felt a tear. It belonged to Mama. She was only able to give Pedro the greatest gift of all – her love. With all those hardships of childhood and all those lessons of childhood and all those preparations of childhood, Pedro knew he would grow up and be strong. It only partially came true. Pedro grew up. Pedro got grown and Mama’s gone. Still Pedro cried. Mama was right. Some things we can never prepare for.

ACCESS TO CARE AWARD
STEFANO A. LEITNER RECEIVES THE CMS FOUNDATION’S 2019 ACCESS TO CARE AWARD, IN HONOR OF ROBIN MCDOUGALL Karen Myers, ARNP presented the award at the FSU College of Medicine’s Award Ceremony on May 17, 2019 to Dr. Stefano Leitner, and below are her introductory comments regarding the recipient. “Within FSUCares, the student service organization here at FSUCOM, is the Chapman Community Health Program (CCHP), sponsored by the Chapman Foundation. This student-run community outreach adopted a transitional housing community here in Tallahassee called Maryland Oaks.
access to care. This year, Diana Bixler, Jean McCully We Care Network Program Coordinator attended the presentation on behalf of the Capital Medical Society Foundation. Dr. Leitner exemplifies our future, a young physician who has shown and will hopefully take an on-going interest in increasing access to medical care for the underserved. We wish him the best in his residency in Medicine-Primary at George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences in Washington, D.C.
Our recipient has been extremely involved with this community project since its infancy. During his time on the main campus, he held many positions within CCHP: • Chairman • Community Resource Liaison • Senior Advisor He worked hard outside of these elected roles as he piloted an exercise program; established a children’s tutoring program; established a service partnership with FSU’s USSTRIDE program to coordinate food distribution at Maryland Oaks; completed the steps necessary to have speedbumps installed by the City of Tallahassee to increase safety for the residents at Maryland Oaks; and established a nutrition education program between the Tallahassee Memorial Hospital TMH FOR LIFE Health and Wellness program and the community members of Maryland Oaks to improve their ability to read nutrition labels and purchase healthy foods on a budget. Remember, this was all done during his first 2 years at FSUCOM. When he left for his Regional campus, he felt ‘lost’ and joined his peers at the Ft Pierce campus in several service projects. He also returned to Maryland Oaks after Match Day. One of the nominators said it best: ‘I can think of no other student more genuinely interested in providing access to care for everyone than Stefano Leitner.’” The CMS Foundation award is named for Robin McDougall, LCSW, who championed increased access to healthcare as the Program Coordinator of our We Care Network for 14 years. The We Care Network is our program operated by local physicians who donate medical specialty care to local low-income, uninsured patients. It is our Foundation’s mission to increase 14 CAP SCAN - A CAPITAL MEDICAL SOCIETY PUBLICATION

Note of Appreciation from Dr. Stefano Leitner: Ms. Irwin and the Capital Medical Society Foundation Board of Directors, It is an honor to receive your Access to Care Award. Throughout medical school, I pursued what I thought was right - providing medical care, education, sustainable and empowering programs for underserved communities, and fostering trusting relationships the whole way. It has been such a pleasure to do what I love and I am so grateful to have been recognized by your society for doing so. As I continue my medical training, I will not remain stagnant in my pursuit for greater opportunities for underserved and uninsured communities. I hope to continue to make you all proud. Thank you for your support! Sincerely, Stefano

CMS FOUNDATION
The Impact of Private Support:
Donate to the CMS Foundation We Thank Our Donors We thank the following individual donors who made a donation to the CMS Foundation this past month: Capital Medical Society Foundation – Area of Greatest Need AmazonSmile Scholarship Fund David Bellamy, M.D. – In Memory of Ronald Alfred Lewis, Father of Judi Lewis, M.D. David Bellamy, M.D. – In Memory of Patrick “Tony” Mahoney We Care Network David Bellamy, M.D. Bill Hambsh Stephen Sandroni We Care Network Endowment Jonathan Appelbaum, M.D.
The Capital Medical Society Foundation’s community of donors strategically help fulfill its mission “to support the charitable efforts of physicians and others, increase access to healthcare, promote education and serve the community’s health needs through innovative projects that are exemplary, affordable and dignified.” ➢ Access to healthcare is increased through gifts to the We Care Network and the We Care Network Endowment Fund. More than $98 million in donated specialty medical and dental care has been provided to low-income, uninsured patients since the program was created in 1992. In fiscal year 2017-18, which ended June 30, 2018, more than $8 million in health care was donated. Gifts support the operational expenses of the program including salaries and benefits of the case management team who coordinate the donated care. ➢ To provide incentives to keep medical students trained at the FSU College of Medicine in the Big Bend after completion of their residencies and help meet the growing demand for physicians in Florida, gifts to the Scholarship Fund provide scholarships to FSU College of Medicine students who have expressed an interest in returning to the Big Bend to practice after completion of their residencies. $42,000 was awarded in 2018. ➢ Gifts to the Capital Medical Society Foundation help provide operational resources for the Capital Medical Society Foundation. In addition, modest grants are awarded to area non-profits whose programs improve access to healthcare for the underserved. In 2019, the CMSF awarded a total of $10,000 in grants to Elder Care Services for their In-Home Services Program, the Big Bend Hospice for bereavement services, and the Lighthouse of the Big Bend to provide clients who have vision loss with the aids needed to manage their health and medical care independently. Gifts to Honor and In Memoriam: You can make a donation to the CMS Foundation in memory of someone who has passed away or in honor of someone, such as a fellow physician, you hold in high esteem or has taken care of you or your family. The CMS Foundation will send an acknowledgement letter to those you memorialize and honor. How to Give: Through the generosity of donors, funds have been created in order to establish financial stability to meet our mission. You can donate at any time to one of the CMS Foundation’s current funds: 1) Capital Medical Society Foundation-area of greatest need 2) The Capital Medical Society Foundation Endowment 3) We Care Network 4) We Care Network Endowment 5) Scholarship Fund 6) The Ronald G. Pickett Endowment 7) Physician Wellness Fund Checks should be made payable to the CMS Foundation and indicate on the memo line of your check to which designation you would like to donate. Bring your check to the CMS Office or mail it: Capital Medical Society Foundation ~ 1204 Miccosukee Road ~ Tallahassee, FL 32308. Donations may be made by credit card from the CMS website.
Your gifts to the Capital Medical Society Foundation transform lives in the Big Bend.
