Kenmore Junior High welcomes the Total Experience Gospel Choir to its assembly

BY ANDY NYSTROM anystrom@bothell-reporter.com

After singing the first verse of “Amazing Grace,” Pastor Patrinell “Pat” Wright of the Total Experience Gospel Choir had some words of wisdom for the Kenmore Junior High students: “Don’t be ashamed to sing it in front of your classmates. It will give you strength for the rest of your day — strength for the rest of your life.”

Students filled the gym grandstand last Friday to celebrate the life of Martin Luther King Jr., a civil-rights activist who was assassinated April 4, 1968 in Memphis, Tenn. Jan. 16 marked the annual day to celebrate his life and achievements.

Along with the soulful, Seattle-based choir, teacher Debbie Montague’s African drumming group performed and sang, and students read passages about King’s life in a darkened gym as some of their classmates held candles. When they read about King’s assassination, the candles were blown out.

The gym was left dark and solemn so the words could have maximum impact, said Assistant Principal Nancy SmithVela.

“Martin Luther King Jr. was someone

Added Smith-Vela: “Martin Luther King Jr. represented something huge and right.”

Smith-Vela then asked students, “What can you do for others?” She encouraged them to start by saying hello

to someone they don’t know and go from there.

Students Jack Crotteau, Dylan Mutal, Raven Mills and Jillian Thompson said that hearing about King’s life has had an impact on them.

“There’s a lot more out there than just you, and Martin Luther King kind of shows that,” said Thompson, noting that it’s important to understand and reach out to others.

From 3 months to live to cancer-free Patient thanks Bastyr for role in integrative care

By Jon Hiskes Special to the Reporter

Sharon Hanson Hanson is cancer-free, a remarkable victory against one of the deadliest forms of cancer. It’s all the more unlikely considering Hanson’s cancer was diagnosed as stage 4 and had spread to her lungs, liver and lymph nodes. She credits her turnaround to the pioneering approach of Chue and the Bastyr graduates on his staff.

They did several important things, she says:

‘THE PARTY ROOM’

First, they gave her hope.

“Dr. Chue said, ‘There’s no limit to your time,’” Hanson, 68, recalls. “’Nobody knows. We’ll try something, and if it doesn’t work, we can try something else.’

That’s when I felt like I’d make it.”

Second, Chue and his staff offered a welcoming environment that recognized the connection between mental and physical health. His

LOW-DOSAGE CHEMOTHERAPY

Finally, and most controversially, Chue administered chemotherapy in much lower doses than most cancer doctors use.

“Traditional chemotherapy uses the highest dosage a person can stand,” he says.

“But you have to wait for a person to recover or you’ll

kill them.”

Chemotherapies were first developed for chemical warfare, after all. They attack healthy cells along with dividing tumor cells, leaving patients with significant side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, hair loss, reduced immunity to disease and even heart complications. So patients typically receive treatments no more than every three weeks.

By contrast, Chue gives patients like Hanson doses every week, but at one-half or one-third the usual dose.

He’s found that patients experience much milder side effects and are able to receive more treatment in total.

“Because we’re not destroying the immune system with high-dose chemotherapy, it can continue to function to help fight the cancer,” he says. “It also lets us give doses more frequently. That frequency turns out to be terribly important.”

Chue began using the approach 14 years ago, before clinical trials had studied it. Other oncologists were intensely skeptical. Since then, Chue’s method has found widespread acceptance at cancer centers, says Standish.

“In the past, he was ridiculed for it,” says Standish.

“But it’s what many of us now believe is the best way

THE VALUE OF HOPE

Hanson credits the lowdosage chemo, combined with Chue’s integrative care, with saving her life.

Today she enjoys living in Shoreline near her two children and two grandchildren. She helps run the family’s longtime hair salon in Bellevue. She knows that not all cancer patients are as fortunate as her, but she believes they can benefit from the approach that served her so well.

And as Bastyr works to reshape cancer care through its Integrative Oncology Research Center (BIORC), it is looking to learn from patients like Hanson.

BIORC combines chemotherapy with naturopathic therapies such as botanical medicine and acupuncture, and it’s in the midst of a $3.1 million clinical study with the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center to compare integrative cancer treatment with conventional care. Another new study of medicinal mushrooms is expanding BIORC’s scope to include prostate cancer along with its current focus on breast cancer. In all of this, Hanson’s story illustrates an important point about health and hope, says Standish, BIORC’s medical

director.

“The last two generations of conventional doctors were taught to give statistics and timeframes,” she says.

“They’re taught not to instill hope. The whole idea is to consider advanced-stage cancer a doomsday diagnosis and avoid giving patients false hope.”

But what if there’s no such thing as “false hope”?

“Hope is hope,” says Standish. Whether rational or not, it can give patients the willpower necessary to return to health.

Healers have a responsibility to tell patients when they are dying and help them prepare for death, she says. But an integrated mind/body perspective, she adds, allows a doctor to recognize that Hanson’s determination to survive for her grandkids matters, no matter how sick she is.

EMOTIONAL REUNION

In August, Standish and Hanson met for the first time since their life-altering visit five years ago. On a balmy summer morning, they embrace with a hug and sit in Standish’s office at Bastyr’s campus in Kenmore to catch up. Sharon’s son, Matt, who accompanies her to all her doctor’s appointments, joins them. [ more Hanson page 4 ]

Sharon Hanson was given three months to live.

She had pancreatic cancer, which carries one of the lowest survival rates of all cancers. It was discovered too late for any treatment except a last-ditch blast of chemotherapy. “Get your affairs in order,” the oncologist said. “Write a letter to your grandkids.”

The mention of grandchildren lit a spark in her.

Her husband died just two months after her diagnosis, and Hanson said to herself: “My kids and grandkids are not going to lose two of us so close. That’s not going to happen.”

She wanted a second opinion from an integrative oncologist — someone who could advise cancer patients on both conventional medicine and naturopathic therapies. She went to Leanna Standish, one of Bastyr University’s leading cancer-care researchers, practitioners and teachers.

As a research professor, Standish reviewed results from all of the cancer treatment centers around the area. She’d been tracking impressive results from Ben Chue, an oncologist who ran an unconventional center in Seattle. “Go see Ben Chue,” Standish said.

That was five years ago.

This fall, tests show that

practice at the time on Seattle’s Capitol Hill greeted patients with bamboo, warm colors and designs informed by feng shui (last spring Chue opened a new clinic, Lifespring Cancer Treatment Center, in the Eastlake neighborhood).

Treatments were given in a light-filled a space known as “The Party Room,” where patients gathered to share stories and notes and frequently laugh. The relaxing, supportive circle made Hanson’s weekly appointments there her favorite days of the week, she says.

The naturopathic physicians on Chue’s staff also provided botanical therapies to help Hanson deal with side effects and boost her immunity. She took glutamine to protect against nerve damage. She took cold-pressed sesame oil to raise her platelet counts. Hanson didn’t feel the need for acupuncture or yoga to deal with pain, but many patients found them helpful.

to do chemo. It’s become a common method.”

“I think you realize what an extraordinary case you are,” Standish says.

Hanson nods, her face beaming. She wants everyone to know about the potential of integrative therapies. She encourages anyone diagnosed with cancer to see an integrative medicine specialist before committing to a treatment plan. Matt Hanson has become a volunteer regional leader of the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network to help reach other pancreatic cancer victims.

“We need to seek out every patient that has been diagnosed,” he says. “There are more integrative ways of treating this disease rather than big doses of chemo alone. We want to get that word out.”

After the conversation, Hanson toured BIORC’s facility on campus. She learned about the approach similar to Chue’s, which understands that patients require support for their spirit and mind along with their body.

As she met the staff, she eagerly recounted her story.

“Three months to live. It had spread to my liver and lungs.

That was five years ago. Now I’m cancer free.”

But that doesn’t mean we don’t report on them because they’re controversial or may offend someone.

In a letter below and posted on our Web site last week, the writer is upset with our coverage of The Paradise Espresso “costume-theme” stand in Bothell.

The Reporter received two complaints about the stand because of its location near family-friendly Country Village. When you get one call about something, you may sit on it for a bit and contemplate doing a story, but when you get two or more, it’s time for action.

It’s an even story (just the way it should always be): information from both callers, a chat with the owner and a quote from the city of Bothell.

Not thrilled about story on ‘costume-themed’ espresso stand in Bothell I am writing to respond to your article about the new “costume-themed” espresso stand in Bothell by Country Village (Jan. 6). I don’t care about which part of Bothell it’s in, as I care about all of Bothell.

I don’t care about whether the owner Alan Tagle has a bachelor of arts degree from the University of Washington. That has never given anyone a license to be offensive. Or to compare his business to anyone else’s. What a crock. Which is what I think of the BothellKenmore Reporter on this subject. Please return to real reporting, real people and real OPINIONS. There is a lot going on in the communities you serve, much more than this servile attitude. Please validate the people that were rightfully offended.

Become a little controversial, not immoral, or your papers will not end up in recycle bins then. The Bothell-Kenmore Reporter always had credibility, not coddling, what happened?

‘Golden Moment’ at Kenmore City Hall provides some humor The Kenmore Reporter’s coverage of “A

Golden Moment” (Jan. 6) involving Rep. Jay Inslee’s awarding a gold certificate to Kenmore officials provided much humor.

It provides recognition to the Kenmore council for building a very expensive Taj-Mahal-type building, much of which is generally empty, and in having “permeable paving” and solar panels that “provide at least 2.5 percent of the building’s energy” plus “water-efficient plumbing.”

What a laugh that this provides anywhere near real sustainability, or even massive savings to the Kenmore community. Almost as much humor is involved as to think that Inslee — who has been very busy voting for legislation that rewards ever-more people coming here from all other countries, both illegally and legally, and thus dominantly contributing to increased pollution, congestion and unsustainability — has any idea of what the word “sustainability” must soon come to mean. This makes a mockery of the word sustainability.

Richard Pelto, Kenmore

Occupy protesters: a welcome sight YES! Occupy protesters ARE a sign of the times (Bill Hirt’s Dec. 16 letter in the Reporter)… and it’s a welcome sight.

Middle-class workers, of whom I am one — a teacher — and other public employees are not the cause of our economic problems.

Currently 42 percent of financial wealth is

controlled by the top 1 percent. Not since the Great Depression has there been this degree of income inequality. Wealth and power are concentrated in the hands of a few. Talk about people not paying their fair share and feeling a sense of entitlement, look no further than the 1 percent. Common practice for corporations and Wall Street is to privatize the gains (I earned it!) and socialize the losses (oops! let the taxpayers pick up the tab). Taxpayers did pick up the bill to bailout Wall Street, which saved the financial sector from collapse, but it was idiocy to do so with NO strings attached. No investigations, fines, prosecutions, jail sentences were acted on nor any new regulations put in place to prevent the abusers from continuing to engage in self-serving financial practices.

We finally have a peaceful robust response with the Occupy movement. There is a growing awareness that our economy and political system is rigged for the well to do from the corporate-owned media, to the courts, to the tax system, to politicians who are beholden to large donors. It is class warfare and the rich are winning. All we have is our numbers.

I can not understand how a tiny few are so ready to direct their ire at the Occupy protesters instead of the lawless financial crowd who continue to game the system for their own benefit. Talk about a sense of entitlement; this is only trumped by the power of others to self delude.

Parents, kids should commit to be fit

BY KARISHMA CHAINANI Special to the Reporter

Do you ever wish your child was more interested in being physically active instead of being plugged into video games and television all the time? Well, you may want to look at your own behaviors.

Are you physically active yourself ? Do you ever encourage them to go outside and get some exercise while you sit inside and do something sedentary?

Research shows that children copy their parents in numerous ways, including behaviors relating to an active lifestyle.

In 2007, an article titled “Children ‘overimitate’ adults” by Ambika Bhushan, was published in the Yale Daily News. This informative article outlined the belief that children often take a “monkey see, monkey do” approach and that “(Sometimes) children’s ability to imi-

tate can actually lead to confusion when they see an adult doing something in a disorganized or inefficient way.” So ultimately, doing things like counting calories openly and in front of your children, always commenting on amounts of food consumed by yourself and others, or having a disconnect with the foods being eaten and showing that disconnect through negative comments passed about food around the dining table, can really hurt your children in the long run. This might lead them to adopt the same viewpoints you have and carry them throughout their life.

Something simple parents can do is encourage their children to eat at home, together at the table with the family. This will not only strengthen the relationships between each other,

healthier for your children. A study in the journal Pediatrics finds that children and adolescents who share meals with their families at least three times per week are less likely to be overweight, eat unhealthy foods or be at risk for eating disorders. Great news for parents, who wants to connect and spend more time with their children anyway!

Nationally, we are recognizing that obesity is becoming a prevalent problem in regards to children and we need to do something about it. A program developed by First Lady Michelle Obama, called the Let’s Move Campaign, debuted on Feb. 9, 2010. The goal is to reduce the epidemic we are seeing with childhood obesity by encouraging healthier food in school lunch programs, better food labeling and more physical activity for children. This is a step in the right direction for America!

I regret the fact that the same amendment of the Constitution that gives me the freedom to write and publish this also gives them the right to hold those signs in public.

Their message was disrespectful and sinister and furthermore, they’re cowards.

Instead of standing on a busy street corner like anti-war protestors have done in the area, these two men decided to stand in front of the local post office and harass anyone who happened to walk by. I guess the force of this viewpoint is not so strong after all and not worth any attention they get.

Honestly, I feel sorry for them. They are so full of hate that they feel the same hatred toward Obama that many others feel toward Hitler. What are we supposed to say to these people? Do we tell them how repulsed we are? Get in their face and bombard them with questions? Or do we just ignore them?

Never in history has there been a U.S. president that was in any way comparable to Hitler. He was the epitome of hate and racism. The presence of these two men at the Bothell Post Office today was a blemish on an otherwise lovely day in our small town.

When freedom of speech goes too far Outside the U.S. Post Office in Bothell Tuesday, there were two men standing outside the door holding “Impeach Obama” signs. At first, I was all for their practice of their right to free speech, I remember seeing the same thing during the Bush Administration.

But then I saw the picture of Obama with a Hitler mustache and felt sick to my stomach.

Apparently some people don’t know when to keep their sick thoughts in their own heads.

What compelled them to park themselves in front of a public establishment on a beautiful snow day, prop up their hideous signs and talk trash about our President just loud enough for passersby to hear?

I ignored them to the best of my ability and when one of them asked me to come over and talk to them, I firmly replied, “No thank you.” But I had plenty more I could have said to them, ample questions I could have asked: How did you arrive at the comparison between a murderous dictator and our president? Do you have Jewish friends? Are you a Nazi, a racist? How does implementing a national health-care plan make Obama comparable to Hitler and how can you stand here and claim that it does?

Were you a Bush supporter? A Republican? What religion do you practice? What exactly are you trying to accomplish by

Resident is worried about The Paradise Espresso stand There are several reasons to worry about The Paradise

Espresso stand located just south of Country Village.

Here are four: • Although the serving window does not face the road, a 6-foot-by-4-foot window does, and anyone driving by can see every inch of the inside!

• The location is anything but innocuous. It is right next to a family-oriented shopping village and has a high volume of traffic.

• If the owner is truthful in stating his employees are not allowed to sport lingerie or bikinis, he has some firing to do.

Just this morning (Jan. 12), I drove by and noted the barista was wearing a bikini bottom and top. There have been other instances.

• Concern over the message we are sending our daughters.

The message sent in this case is: In order to sell a cup of coffee, you need to show off your body.

When will women ever be recognized for the content of their character and not the size of their bust?

I’ve lived in Bothell eight years and love its unique mix of small-town and city feel.

That said, we are not downtown Seattle nor some outin-the-boonies redneck town.

In my opinion, these are the only two areas where such a business should be established. In the very least, this stand should be required to have curtains or shades so that those of us who prefer modesty for our young women don’t have to be subject to an accidental sighting of belly, cleavage and legs!

smiled.

The male and female students — many of them athletes — walked by photos of a handful of athletes who died of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA), including Varrenti’s son, Nick, who passed away seven years ago at the age of 16 after collapsing on the football field.

“I just want to check everything out and make sure I’m healthy so I can play sports,” said Bothell senior Ryan Carter, who plays football and soccer.

Carter added that history teacher and track-and-field coach Cathy Boyce suggested that he and others get heart screenings.

Varrenti, the executive director of the Nick of Time Foundation out of Mill Creek, said that by the end of the day on Jan. 11, about 500 students from Bothell, Inglemoor and Woodinville high schools would receive heart screenings.

“We were completely taken off guard, so we thought it was something that people needed to know about,” Varrenti said.

“A lot of times parents think that when they take their child for a physical or a sports physical, that everything is going to be covered, and it’s not.” She added that students need an electrocardiogram (electrical test, ECG) at the very least, and an echocardiogram (ultrasound test), as well.

Jonathan Drezner, family medicine/sports medicine physician at the University of Washington and medical director of the Nick of Time Foundation, said that SCA is the leading cause of sudden death in young athletes and a significant cause of sudden death in youths.

“Most kids who die on the playing field actually have no warning symptoms before their first collapse, which is from sudden cardiac arrest,” he added. “So this type of screening provides a model where we can do not only history and physical, but also an ECG, which allows us to get more information about the heart.”

About 120 volunteers attended the event from the University of Washington, Seattle Children’s Hospital, Swedish Medical Center, Cardiac Science, Sonosite, Physio-Control, Bothell Fire and EMT, Woodinville Fire and Shoreline EMT and Valley Regional Fire Authority. (Some of those organizations also [ more heart page 9 ]

provided equipment.) The 25-minute screenings included a stop at the blood-pressure station, heart screenings, ECGs, a visit to the automated-externaldefibrillator and cardiopulmonary-resuscitation awareness station and then a consultation with one of the doctors.

Bothell juniors Dakotah Bloss, a cheerleader, and Mimi McDonald, an alto saxophonist in the marching band, were two of the girls on hand for their heart screenings.

Bloss’ cheer coach Andy Gault encouraged the girls to get screenings: “The entire cheer team’s here; our coach is like, ‘I want to make sure you guys are all good.’ In cheerleading, I’ve seen girls just pass out during competition routines — that’s scary. I don’t want that to happen to me or to anyone I know.”

A steady diet of running and P90X workouts is what helps keep Bloss’ endurance rolling, and she eats healthy, just like her classmate Carter.

January 20, 2012 [9]

“We care about our health and want to make sure we can continue to be strong,” Bloss said. “I want to be young forever.”

Bothell’s Davidson gunning for state gold

BY TIM WATANABE twatanabe@redmond-reporter.com

Although the Bothell High wrestling team is a little short on numbers this year, the team happens to possess one of the state’s top wrestlers.

The 160-pounder’s name is Brandon Davidson, last year’s fifth-place finisher in the 145-pound class as a sophomore surprise, and according to head coach Scott LaBrash, it just may be the junior’s year.

“Brandon is one of those kids who always works hard, he’s just a tough kid,” he said, adding that Davidson has a “great” shot to better his fifth from last year. “He’s been wrestling pretty much his whole life, he’s knowledgeable, athletic, physical and aggressive. He has a lot of characteristics you see in a state champ.”

In addition to Brandon, the Cougars have Kyle Hanson, a promising 132-pound junior, and senior Dustin Rhode, who looks to make his first state

Q & A with Bothell High junior Brandon Davidson Q: What have you been working on during the offseason to get ready for this season?

A: I’ve been really working on my attacks, and staying busy. Last year I was just getting caught with stupid rookie mistakes.

Q: After placing fifth last year, what are your goals this time around and what will be your keys to success this year?

A: My goal is to at least get into the finals, and obviously win it, but just keep working hard and not making stupid mistakes like last year.

Q: Your brother Justin is the team’s assistant coach, how does having him here help push you to succeed?

A: It really motivates me, especially with him being a past state champion. I want to at least do as good as he did, if not better.

The third-year coach admitted that as a team, the Cougars are hurt by not filling all the weights, as many Kingco teams are, but hopes that his athletes’ work ethic will help make up for the lack of numbers.

“We have great intensity in the room and we work hard,” LaBrash noted. “We’re constantly getting better week in and week out, and as far as the team looks, on the individual level we [ more COUGS page 12 ]

The Inglemoor High wrestling team, a perennial 4A Kingco power, is usually well-represented at the Tacoma Dome’s Mat Classic, the state wrestling tournament.

The 2011-12 season looks to be no exception, as the Viks have a number of talented and hungry varsity returners itching to get on the state medal podium.

“The upper weights have really good chances, Gastineau, Bedo, Koukal, Carson, and Stocker,” listed the second-year head coach. “Those are the guys we expect to get to state and hopefully even place. As long as we can keep everyone healthy, we should do pretty well.”

And the wrestlers

“We just gotta stay mentally tough, make sure we’re strong for the postseason weeks, and give it our all,” Bedo said.

“We have strong competitors in our varsity lineup,” Bedo said. “I’m positive we can take the district championship.”

While the 4A Kingco league isn’t typically known for its wrestling talent when compared to the rest of the state, Schulfer takes pride in creating a tough tournament schedule for his kids, which includes stops at Mariner, Monroe, Snohomish and Marysville, so they are better prepared for the postseason.

And considering that Kingco is matched up against the stacked South Puget Sound League (SPSL) at the regional championships, they’ll have to be.

“We try to schedule tournaments against good, tough teams so we can see some of the people we might see in regionals or at state,” Schulfer explained. “It’s good to get exposure to better (wrestlers), and also get an idea of what some of the other schools are doing.”

As far as a number the Vikings wish to advance to Tacoma, Schulfer said that his five or six returners that made deep postseason runs last year have a great shot.

really well. We’re grinding, we’re a tough team.”

With Davidson a shoo-in to return to state and a handful of other hopefuls, LaBrash, who himself was a three-time state participant from 2002-04 for the Cougars, said that he would be happy with taking a quartet of wrestlers to Tacoma.

“I expect us to get four out of regionals and on to state,” he said. “I expect everyone to place at Kingco, to tell the truth. But that could just be the coach in me.”

Prep roundup: Inglemoor wrestlers dominate Eastlake Wrestling in a 4A Kingco match last Friday night against Eastlake High, the Vikings’ depth prevailed as they defeated the Wolves 58-13.

While they split the match count 3-3, the shorthanded Eastlake squad had to forfeit six matches.

Highlights for Inglemoor included team co-captain Ian Bedo, wrestling at 145, pinning Teddy Hung in 1 minute, 45 seconds, Jason Chaussee (160) achieving a second-round pin over Ryan Green in 2:58, and Mark Johnson (182) routing Loagan Nielsen in a major decision, 17-3.

BOTHELL’S LAVINE SHINES IN KING HOLIDAY HOOPFEST

Bothell guard Zach LaVine came up clutch on Monday in the King Holiday Hoopfest at UW’s Hec Ed Pavilion, burying a 3-pointer with 1.9 seconds left to stun Jefferson High of Portland, 71-70.

With UW head coach Lorenzo Romar in attendance, LaVine finished with 27 points, 11 rebounds for the Cougars, with Perrion Callandret adding 19.

The Cougars (8-5), who trailed by 12 after the first quarter, rallied late and scored 45 points in the second half to win.
