Kenmore’s Norwegian knight King Harald honors Kim Nesselquist
BY ANDY NYSTROM
BY ANDY NYSTROM anystrom@bothell-reporter.com
When the calendar reads May 17, Kim Nesselquist and his family head down to Ballard to celebrate Norwegian Constitution Day. This year’s event was more important than ever for the Kenmore resident, who has lived in the area since 1990. At Leif Erikson Sons of Norway Hall in Ballard, Seattle’s Norwegian Consul Nesselquist was named knight, first class to the Royal Norwegian Order of Merit. His Majesty King Harald V of Norway made the appointment and Consul General Sten Arne Rosnes bestowed the honor upon Nesselquist, 55, for promoting Norwegian-American interests. “It has pleased His Majesty The King to honor Kim Nesselquist in this way in recognition of his longstanding, able and dedicated service to Norway,” said Rosnes, who was visiting from San Francisco. Wegger Chr. Strømmen, Norway’s Ambassador to the U.S., nominated Nesselquist for the honor and noted that he has been a “dedicated and generous person” during his career, which has included positions of vice consul of Norway for Washington and Idaho and CEO and executive director of the Norwegian American Foundation. He has also served on the boards of

I’m very honored and thankful for the nomination and, of course, for getting knighted — it’s a rare thing,” Nesselquist said. “I served the king and my country as consul, and to be honored this way on their constitution day… it’s a big day and it’s emotional.” Nesselquist’s wife, Krystn, said Kim will travel to Norway in the fall to meet with King Harald about his honor. As knight, Kim will continue his NorwegianUnited States service as usual. Kim and Krystn met as students at Pacific Lutheran
University in Tacoma — which was founded by Scandinavian immigrants in 1890. Krystn lived in Norway for six years, learned the language and nowadays communicates daily with people in Norway through her Seattle company Work Wear, which imports industrial clothing for the fishing industry. Kim, who is currently director of development at PLU, said he’s raised funds for the university and other Norwegian organizations as part of his activities in the Pacific Northwest. He also regularly facilitates Boeing contracts for Norwegian airlines. Locally and nationally, while CEO of the Norwegian American Foundation, he helped organize about 1,200 events during the 2005 centennial celebration of Norway’s independence from Sweden.
“He puts a lot of effort into everything he does for them. We’re proud of him — he’s a good one,” Krystn said. Before moving to the U.S. permanently in 1990, in Norway, Kim served as a political adviser for the Conservative Party, served in the mayor’s office in Oslo and on Oslo’s first executive board, and as deputy minister for Health and Social Services. He was also elected twice to the city council in his hometown of Drammen. The Nesselquists have three children, two of whom speak Norwegian fluently: Elise, a PLU graduate who works at Microsoft; Christian, who just finished his junior year at Inglemoor High; and Per, who lives in Norway and dreams of becoming a mountain climber and skier, Kim said with a laugh.

City of Bothell is considering business-license fee increase For the last few weeks, Bothell Mayor Mark Lamb, Deputy City Manager Steve Anderson and Greater Bothell Chamber of Commerce officials have been visiting with some of the city’s 2,800 businesses to inform owners that a big change may be in store for them. At its June 19 meeting, the City Council will discuss raising business-license fees to help make up for a loss of $1.5 million annually due to a struggling economy and the Supreme Court eliminating the city’s streetlight and broadband utility service fees over the last few years. “Council has hundreds of decisions they make every year. With this one, we’re trying to do as much outreach as we can and see the reaction and try to craft a proposal that council could adopt that incorporates the feedback,” Anderson said. After meeting with a few business owners and chamber officials, Anderson added about their reactions: “They understand what’s going on. It hit them, ‘Oh my gosh.’ They’re worried about the impact on others — because it’s substantial.” Fee increases could impact
Bothell businesses as follows: • Large company Current — $5,098 Proposed — $7,544 (800 employees, 60,000 square feet of office space, $10 million annual revenue) • Medium retail store Current — $234 Proposed — $952 (25 employees, 10,000 square feet, $1 million annual revenue) • Small independent business Current — $39 Proposed — $55 (2 employees, 1,500 square feet, $100,000 annual revenue) Anderson said that Bothell annually lost $750,000 on the broadband tax, about $1.05 million on the $19-per-household streetlight fee and about $450,000 in business activity and development services during the recession. The city has dipped into its reserves to help cover the shortfall, Anderson said. Bothell started 2009 with $7.3 million in reserve and it entered 2011 with $4.5 million in reserve. In July of 2011, council authorized the staff to use $1.5 million of those $4.5
million reserves to balance that shortfall. “Bothell’s lean organization and ability to draw on reserves has given the city the ability to weather the difficult economy better than most cities,” city officials said in a newsletter, adding that Bothell would put itself at financial risk if it continues to draw on reserves to make ends meet. Bothell has also been able to maintain one of the lowest property tax levy rates in the state: among 281 Washington cities, more than 230 cities have higher tax rates than Bothell’s, the city says. Also, according to Bothell finance studies, even with the proposed fee increases, businesses still pay less license fees in Bothell than they would in neighboring cities. J.D. Davis of Sundance Energy Services in Bothell, who has met with Anderson to discuss the proposed fee hike, said that no one likes to see that happen, but the city has to make a financial move in order to stay on course. Money raised from the business-license fees will go into the Bothell general fund to be used for road improvements. Davis is pleased with this part of the plan, especially with the city’s downtown revitalization on the
horizon. “We have 25,000 employees in Bothell, and the businesses attract customers and employees and deliveries, so that has a tremendous impact on our streets, as do residents, people leaving town to go work some-
place else,” Anderson said. Council could make its decision by June 19 or later, Anderson said. The city sends out business-license renewals in June, and owners return them with their fees by July 1. Changes will go into effect with
this renewal. “Once they make the decision, whatever rate it is will go out — we’d understand if they can’t turn it around by July 1,” he said, noting that the city is [ more fees page 14 ]

common sense is not all that common and it seems that insanity is taking over — where can we find wisdom?” he said. “And then we began the process of how does a person who is gullible, walking through life not really thinking about the choices they make, turn into a person of wisdom?” McCallum answered his own question, noting that people who are off course in life should gather all their fears and point them toward God for guidance. In general, the pastor said that it helps to have a community of caring people in one’s life during trying times. Getting outside in the light of day can also help one clear their mind and search for positivity, he said. In addition to himself, McCallum said that Chuck [ more SHOOTINGS page 5 ]

“This is something that we take very seriously,” Cummings said of the training. As far as citizens go, she continued: “It just goes to show, you have to be alert, you have to keep your eyes open and be aware of your surroundings. You should be aware if something doesn’t look right, take the time to take another glance and ensure that it’s safe to go forward.” (She added that the May 30 victims may not have had the chance to react as such.) Sether said the word “routine” doesn’t exist in police officers’ vocabulary
because each time they respond to a call, there’s always the potential that weapons can be involved. “We have a tremendous amount of people who carry concealed weapons that have concealed-weapon permits and so there are a lot of weapons out there,” Sether said. “You never know what you’re getting yourself into.” Bothell and Kenmore officers’ training scenario features tactics and techniques to deal with a potential active shooter in the cities (most officers have AR 15 rifles, bulletproof vests, helmets and shields in their patrol cars).

FESTIVALS KENMORE ART SHOW MOVES TO BASTYR CAMPUS
The 14th annual juried Kenmore Art Show will be held at Bastyr University from 2-8 p.m. on June 21-24. This a change from the past 13 shows, which were held at Northlake Lutheran Church. The site provides an open space, allowing visitors easy access while viewing the art, according to the Arts of Kenmore planning committee. The free show will include art in the categories of paintings, drawings, photography, sculpture, artisan works, youth artwork and artwork made of repurposed materials. Musical entertainment will be provided each day.
BOTHELL LIVEARTS FESTIVAL READY TO ROLL
The Bothell Arts Council will hold its Bothell LiveARTS Festival juried art show from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. June 23-24 at the combined Bothell Cascadia Community College/University of Washington, Bothell campus in Mobius Hall. The free festival will feature a juried art show, juried artisan booths, juried quilt show, live entertainment, food court, wine garden and limited-release festival

SKANDIA MIDSOMMARFEST RETURNS TO ST. EDS
The Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission and the Skandia Folkdance Society invite the public to Skandia Midsommarfest on June 24 at St. Edward State Park in Kenmore. The free event will run from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Skandia Folkdance Society presents a traditional Swedish celebration of the summer solstice, recreating authentic activities practiced in Sweden for centuries. Following the grand parade, spectators are invited
to help hoist the 35-foot-tall Midsommar pole and join the långdans (serpentine running dance around the pole) with costumed musicians and dancers. Groups representing other Nordic countries and cultures also contribute to the festivities. Dance and music performances begin first thing in the morning. The Discover Pass is not required to attend this event; the Skandia Folkdance Society has covered the access fee for event attendees as part of the event contract lease. A special feature of the festival is the Hemslöjdsmarknad, an avenue of traditional arts and crafts booths featuring demonstrations and items available for purchase. Traditional Scandinavian food is available for purchase.
Cascadia Community College instructor David Ortiz and his Bothell students focused their Humanities 150 class discussion on the shootings the following day. The insightful talk dealt with where Stawicki got the guns, why he went on the shooting rampage and whether nearby University of Washington-Seattle students received text alerts about what was happening at Cafe Racer on Roosevelt Avenue, Ortiz said. “We always debrief our students when something tragic happens in the com-
munity … 9/11, a severe storm or a terrorist threat,” Ortiz said. “We try to calm students down and talk them through it.” Ortiz saw the situation as a good time to discuss safety procedures at the school, as well, and he feels that people in business buildings and public offices should also review their safety plans. Even though the shootings weren’t near the Cascadia/UW-Bothell campus, Ortiz said students still felt an impact with the day’s events. “It’s always close to home. We live in such a commuter society in that we go in between cities daily,” he said.
CRIME PREVENTION
The 29th annual National Night Out, a crime/ drug-prevention event sponsored by the National Association of Town
Watch, is scheduled for Aug. 7. Last year, more than 37 million people in more than 15,000 communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories, Canadian cities and military bases worldwide participated in the event. The Kenmore Police Department will host an event at City Hall, 18120 68th Ave. N.E., which will feature free food, activities and crime-prevention information. Time of the event is to be announced; check www.kenmorewa. gov for more information. Bothell isn’t hosting an event this year, but the police department encourages residents to hold block parties, cookouts and flashlight walks on Aug. 7. People can register to organize a National Night Out event at www. nationaltownwatch.org/ nno.

● QUOTE OF NOTE:
“With accidents, kidnappings and shootings, it’s getting out of control.” — Richard Dowling, Bothell resident
Violence is never the answer I’m a cool, calm and level-headed person. I’m also a trusting guy and I always look for good qualities in others and remain positive in any situation I’m faced with. However, I’m steamed nowadays — and worried about what’s going on around me ... and all of us. Shootings, armed robberies, people driving recklessly. Sure, none of this is new, but it seems to be happening more and more frequently these days. Not just locally, but around the nation and world. It seems that people have no concern for others, only what satisfies their twisted minds. And all we can do is sit by and watch as others do as they please and hope none of the madness comes our way. It’s not a great way to live. I interviewed Kenmore and Bothell police chiefs Cliff Sether and Carol Cummings for my cover story this week about the recent Seattle shootings and what the local departments are learning from it and are dealing with on a regular basis in our towns. I’m both shocked and perturbed that one man would show a gun after another driver Andy Nystrom

OPINION

allegedly cut him off in a Safeway parking lot in Kenmore. And flashing a gun and tying up an innocent night manager at the Yakima Fruit Market in Bothell during a robbery is horrendous. What are these lunatics thinking, bringing innocent people into their deranged world? Nobody deserves that, especially those who were killed in the Seattle shootings. Just plain wrong.
After speaking with senior pastor Phil McCallum of Evergreen Community Church in Bothell, I agree with his assessment that people need a solid community of friends around them if they’re having a hard time in life. And if not, they should find someone like McCallum to speak with and try and figure things out. There’s got to be an easier way to deal with problems than opting for violence. Again, it’s just plain wrong.

Liquor with our groceries? I am appalled at the greedy decision of our neighborhood grocery stores to begin selling hard liquor. This new addition to their inventory is — at best — insensitive and — at worst — irresponsible. Insensitive hardly describes their willingness to place hard liquor on the shelves, in the grocery baskets and at the checkout. Having to work my way past the multiple displays of beer and wine has been bad enough, but grocery store ads are now bragging they are a one-stop shop to “save a trip to the liquor store.” I never go there. Insensitive also applies to the feelings of the clerks and service personnel who will have to handle the hard stuff, if they want to keep their jobs, regardless of their attitude toward liquor. Irresponsible is the best way to describe the stores’ greedy attitude, since it will now be so much easier for susceptible people to be more easily tempted to spend money on liquor instead of milk, meat or clothing. Irresponsible is the only way to describe the decision to place hard liquor in front of the numerous children who regularly accompany parents on grocery-shopping expeditions. True, the bottles are sealed and it’s not a saloon, but the repeated exposure implies (incorrectly) that hard liquor is as acceptable and healthy as carrots and cheese. Irresponsible is bragging about making the purchase of liquor so easily available that people cannot resist. Stores adding liquor are appar-
ently looking only at net profit, but they have a responsibility toward the betterment of our community. If they make liquor increasingly available, they should be held morally (if not legally) accountable for the ensuing rise in DWIs, DUIs and accidents. No, I’m not pushing for prohibition, but liquor should not be slapping us in the face every time we go for a loaf of bread.

Reader puts in his 2 cents about business-license fee hike I read with great interest the “Business Taxes and License Fees” paper put out by the Greater Bothell Chamber of Commerce last week. Apparently this fine city has found it difficult to fund all of its many planned civic improvements for Bothell. “Now” they tell us they need to increase business taxes for those folks trying to make a smallbusiness go of it in the current economic climate because they’re short on money. Great! And, oh, by the way, the recommended budget for 20132014 calls for a property tax increase of 1 percent (Bothell City Council meeting of May 8). Is all this a part of the lower taxation promised during the two defeated votes for annexation the city tried to push through? Gosh, maybe the money spent on the “second” vote could have gone toward those increased business taxes. Come on Bothell Council, how about thinking of the taxpayers’ interests for a change?

From the Web: State Route 522 driver-safety story “It’s got directional signs, so if they just pay attention, it will be like navigating the interstate.” (Kenmore Police Chief Cliff Sether, May 18 Reporter story) Which a significant percentage of Washington state drivers are not competent to do either. Driver training in Washington must be a joke, because I see people every day I drive who don’t understand the rules of the road, and/or aren’t paying attention to the task of driving, or are simply and obviously unqualified to drive, at least at the time they are behind the wheel. They don’t have a clue as to the concept of lane discipline — if you want to drive below the limit/safe speed, move into the #2 (slow) lane rather than coasting down the road obstructing traffic.
Keith Toepfer
The U-turns are very scary. And I wish the bridge dodgers would stop driving like they are late. You all know who you are. Flooding the community with Eastside drivers is just creating chaos.
Ginny Whited
There have been more accidents since the have put in the dividers... Coincidence? Bad idea from the start... Now I’m sure they will be lowering the speed limit to 30-35 because of the careless drivers.

Members of the North Sound Metro SWAT Team served simultaneous search warrants on two Kirkland residences at about 6 a.m. on May 31, and two men were arrested without incident for their suspected involvement in a Bothell armed robbery and unlawful-imprisonment incident that occurred in early May at the Yakima Fruit Market. A third man was arrested by Bothell police detectives later in the day in Lynnwood. According to Capt. Denise Langford, Bothell Police Department public information officer, Bothell police detectives located a floor plan of the Yakima Fruit Market inside one of the suspect’s residences. They also recovered the gun used in the robbery. At approximately 8:41 p.m. on May 6, two men entered the market — located at 17321 State Route 522 — after closing, forced the night manager into the business office at gunpoint and demanded the manager open the safe. Bothell Police received information about a possible suspect vehicle seen in the area during the incident and were able to recover a cellular phone determined to be associated with one of the suspects. Further investigation led to the identification of three men,

Bothell bride and wedding party fight breast cancer people survive it all the time. So you just have to take the precautions necessary to make sure that you catch it early.” Her mother, Kathy, was diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer after doctors found a lump in her left breast during an annual mammogram in 2001. “I was in college at Washington State University, and she just called me one day and we talked often so it wasn’t really anything out of the ordinary,” Dunnigan recalled. “She told me and, luckily, I had a good support system of friends over there. I was really upset and I really wanted to go home, but my parents wanted me to stay in school.” Doctors treated Kathy’s breast cancer with a lumpectomy, chemotherapy and radiation. Her mom, who worked as a computer lab assistant at Arrowhead Elementary in Kenmore for 13 years, lost her hair, tons of weight, her appetite and strength due to the chemotherapy. “It was really tough,”
BY CARRIE WOOD cwood@kirklandreporter.com
When the vows, wedding toast and dancing are over, most brides can’t wait to get on with the next ceremonial step – the honeymoon. But Bothell’s Brooke Dunnigan had a new tradition planned for her recent wedding. After she married her longtime fiancé, Brian, on June 2 – a day before the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in Seattle – she met with her wedding party and family the following day to participate in the annual co-ed 5K walk to fight breast cancer. Brian has walked with her in the race for the past five years. Dunnigan is no stranger to breast cancer. “My family has a huge history of breast cancer,” said Dunnigan, 30, who works in digital advertising. “Both of my grandmas had it, my mom had it, my mom’s sisters – all three had breast cancer.” Dunnigan lost her Aunt Leesa and her mother, Kathy, to breast

Despite her fears, Dunnigan still keeps the possibility of breast cancer in check and has already had a few mammograms. She also reassures her younger sister, Korie, age 22, that breast cancer is “not a death sentence –
said Dunnigan, wiping her tears. “We would go and do things and you could tell that she was really tired or wasn’t enjoying it like she would normally.” Kathy was in remission for a few years, but in 2008 her breast cancer came back and spread to her major organs, including her liver. Her mother opted to quit chemotherapy in July 2009 because her breast cancer was too aggressive and the treatment wore on her body. “It made her feet and hands really sensitive, so she couldn’t open bottles or walk very far,” said Dunnigan, who described Kathy as a loving mom and an art enthusiast. “Her quality of life was not at its peak and it was obvious that there was nothing they could do at that point.” Kathy lived for five more months and her family eventually took her to hospice at Evergreen. She passed away at the age of 53 in her sleep, surrounded by her daughters and family. Dunnigan has partici-
pated in the Race for the Cure since 2000, when one of her aunts was diagnosed with breast cancer. But her mother’s diagnosis really spurred her to gather her friends and family to form Team Kathy and walk in her mom’s honor. Dunnigan says while it was difficult that her mother wasn’t there to see her walk down the aisle, she is hopeful that her participation in the Race for the Cure will help to end breast cancer forever. “It’s difficult, but I know my mom would want it. She can’t be there, but we try to fill in as much as we can,” said Dunnigan, who planned to go with her new husband to Paris and Barcelona for their honeymoon following the race. “I just feel like the Race for the Cure has become an annual time for us to reflect and remember how important it is, too, especially because you don’t want other people to go through the same thing.”

Kenmore Camera shoots for expansion on Village property Special to the Reporter
The Kenmore City Council approved a purchase-and-sale agreement on June 11 with Kenmore Camera owners Jim and Martha Donovan for a portion of the Kenmore Village property that has been owned by the city since 2003. The property sale will close following a
90-day feasibility and due diligence period. The city is selling a 54,000-square-foot piece of property, which includes a 17,000-squarefoot building formerly occupied by Grocery Outlet. The purchase price is $1,250,000. Through a boundary line adjustment, the city will retain 15,000 square feet of frontage
on Northeast 181st Street from the original parcel. Kenmore Camera plans to be operating from its new location in 2013. Kenmore Camera, a family-owned business based in Kenmore since 1974, is a premier provider of photographic equipment and services. The business is renowned for its extensive training for
beginners and professionals alike, and many of its events will take place in this expanded facility in downtown Kenmore. This move will provide more than triple the square footage of the current store, which is just across Northeast 181st Street from the future location. Jim Donovan remarked, “Kenmore has always been

a great place to be in business and we’ve outgrown the present location. The move to Kenmore Village is going to be the perfect move for us both in size and location. We will be able to have everything under one roof including classrooms and storage. It couldn’t be better.” The City Council sees this agreement as an important step in downtown redevelopment and supporting the expansion of a strong local business. “We welcome this investment because it will benefit downtown redevelopment goals, which have been the focus of community interest and discussion over many years — and it ensures the long-term presence of an
important Kenmore business,” said Mayor David Baker. The city was engaged in a Disposition and Development Agreement with Urban Partners (later known as RECP/UP Kenmore, LP) for redevelopment of the 9.6-acre Kenmore Village property from 2007 to March 2012, when the parties mutually agreed to end the agreement. The Kenmore Camera agreement stipulates cooperation and coordination with future redevelopment to achieve a smooth function and fit between the properties. The City Council began discussing options for pursuing redevelopment of the remaining Kenmore Village property this week.

pened and why. “I’m sure that out of 2,800 businesses, some are going to be surprised, (and say) ‘What is this?’ and others are going to say it’s the cost of doing business,” he added. This might be the first time Bothell business-license fees are raised this high, said Anderson, noting that fees are upped by a small percentage annually based on the Consumer Price Index. In 2002, council had staff look at
a head tax ($60 per employee with 20,000 city employees at that time), but they didn’t adopt the proposal.

The proposed amendment offers greater certainty that the environmental issues have been resolved. All of the amendments have provided the city with an additional $160,000 in earnest money, of which $85,000 is applicable to the purchase price and $75,000 as additional compensation. Also part of the agreement is a five-foot stormwater easement to accommodate a portion of the proposed Horse Creek relocation along the western property line, saving significant capital expenses associated with the Horse Creek project.

The city will execute an environmental agreement requiring that any future development disturbing this contamination area must first receive WSDOE approval. The environmental cleanup delays have also caused delays by McMenamins in obtaining project financing. Council previously approved an amendment that established an escrow holdback provision in the amount of $100,000, to be accessed by McMenamins related to additional environmental cleanup or monitoring at the pool property if needed.

Due to a need for environmental cleanup work, the Bothell-McMenamins purchase-and-sale agreement (PSA) closing date and environment contingency period has been extended on several occasions. This month, the PSA for McMenamins’ purchase and redevelopment of the Anderson School site and Northshore Pool property — on Bothell Way Northeast near downtown — is set to occur on or before June 27, according to a recent city of Bothell report. The Bothell-McMenamins PSA was initiated on June 15, 2010, and calls for the Port-
land, Ore.,-based organization to develop the Anderson building into a 70-room hotel with a restaurant, pub, movie theater, spa and event meeting space. Operating the Northshore Pool is also part of the agreement, with Bothell residents having free access to the pool, meeting room space and community garden for 15 years. The Washington State Department of Ecology (WSDOE) recently completed cleanup work on the pool property associated with an adjacent gas station and was set to issue a No Further Action letter at press time.

Definition Fibromyalgia is a disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain accompanied by fatigue, sleep, memory and mood issues. Researchers believe that fibromyalgia amplifies painful sensations by affecting the way your brain process pain signals. Symptoms sometimes began after physical trauma, surgery, infection or significant psychological stress. In other cases, symptoms gradually accumulate over time with no single triggering event. Women are much more likely to develop fibromyalgia than are men. Many people who have fibromyalgia also have tension headaches, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, irritable bowel syndrome, anxiety and depression. Symptoms Chronic widespread body pain is the primary symptom of fibromyalgia. Most people with fibromyalgia also experience moderate to extreme fatigue, sleep disturbances, sensitivity to touch, light, and sound, and cognitive difficulties. Many individuals also experience a number of other symptoms and overlapping conditions, such as irritable bowel syndrome, lupus and arthritis. Pain The pain of fibromyalgia is profound, chronic and widespread. It can migrate to all parts of the body can vary intensity. FM pain has been described as having an shooting pain and deep muscular aching, throbbing, and twitching. Neurological complaints such as numbness, tingling, and burning are often present in and to the discomfort of the patient. The severity of the pain and stiffness is often worse in the morning. Aggravating factors that affect pain include cold and humid weather, nonrestorative sleep, physical and mental fatigue, excessive physical activity, physical inactivity, anxiety and stress. Fatigue In today’s world many people complain of fatigue; however, the fatigue of FM is much more than being tired after critically busy day or after a sleepless night. The fatigue of FM is an all
encompassing exhaustion that can interfere with occupational, personal, social or educational activities. Symptoms include profound exhaustion and poor stamina. Sleep Problems Many fibromyalgia patients have an associated sleep disorder that prevents them from getting deep, restful, restorative sleep. Medical researchers have documented specific and distinctive abnormalities in the stage 4 deep sleep of FM patients.
During sleep, individuals with FM are constantly interrupted by bursts of the weak-like brain activity, limiting the amount of time they spend in deep sleep.

Being a Peaceful Presence By Kelley Smith www.vineyardpark.net
“In times of stress, the best thing we can do for each other is to listen with our ears and our hearts and to be assured that our questions are just as important as our answers.” Mr. Fred Rogers: What does it mean to be a good listener? The first thing is to be in the moment and be a peaceful presence. To be a calm presence we must check in with how we are feeling. Are we calm? Are we at peace? If not, why not? What can you do this moment to reconnect to the calm within? Discovering how our past, our history and our culture has influenced our attitudes and judgments is important. Are the things we were taught as children still valid? Do those beliefs help us be a peaceful presence or cause us stress? Becoming aware of our beliefs can help us figure out why we react the way we do to a person or situation. Do you have a peaceful presence with yourself? When is the last time you went for a walk or just sat outside and listened to your thoughts? Do you find yourself making excuses for yourself, to yourself? Before you can be a peaceful presence for someone else, you have to master the art internally. Be gentle with your soul. Meditation can bring us all to this level of peace. So will our being in the presence of other peaceful people. The presence we bring will eventually pass on to others.
Remember that being there for someone else is an activity. It requires action and self awareness.
“It is better in times of need to have a friend rather than money.” Greek Proverb

fibromyalgia. These tests are done to exclude other possible diagnoses. Therefore, the diagnosis of fibromyalgia is made purely on clinical grounds based on the doctor’s history and physical examination in patients with chronic widespread body pain, the diagnosis of fibromyalgia can be made by identifying point tenderness areas(typically, but not always, patients will have at least 11 of the 18 classic fibromyalgia tender points), but finding no accompanying tissue swelling or inflammation, and by excluding other medical conditions that can mimic fibromyalgia. Treatments Chiropractic-chiropractic adjustments helps improve the central and peripheral nervous system. With chiropractic care and wellness lifestyle, fibromyalgia patients have experienced decreased symptoms, increase energy and clearer thinking.

Prevalence Fibromyalgia is one of the most common chronic pain conditions. The disorder affects an estimated 10 million people in US and an estimated 3 to 6% of the world population. While it is most prevalent in women, 75 to 90% of the people who have FM are women, it also occurs in men and children of all ethnic groups. The disorder is often seen in families, among siblings and mothers and their children. The diagnosis is usually made between the ages of 20 to 50 years, but the incidence rises with age so that by age 80, approximately 8% of adults meet the American College of Rheumatology classification of fibromyalgia. How is fibromyalgia diagnosed? There are no blood test or x-ray test that specifically point the doctor to the diagnosis of
