New York budget measures aim to address opioid crisis on LI

BY MAUREEN ROSSI DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM With the opioid epidemic still endemic throughout Suffolk County and beyond, New York State senators are hoping the new state budget will mean more help for those in the throes of addiction.

Measures woven into and passed in the state budget include increasing access for those suffering with substance use disorder to access 28-day inpatient and outpatient programs without prior insurance authorization. They also include money for a recovery high school start -up and no prior authorization for medicationassisted treatment.

“These are critical reform measures,” said New York State Sen. Monica Martinez (D-Brentwood). In addition, she touted another reform, which will require emergency rooms to enact screening, brief intervention and referral to treatment for all overdose patients before they are released. For the first time, emergency room doctors will also initiate medically-assisted treatment to overdose patients prior to their release, utilizing drugs like buprenorphine that alleviate the craving for opioids including heroin.

Martinez was joined by her Democratic

colleagues at a press conference in Islandia April 12. Senators Anna Kaplan (D-Great Neck), James Gaughran (D-Northport), Kevin Thomas (D-Levittown) and Todd Kaminsky (D-Long Beach) gathered at THRIVE Long Island, a community center for people in addiction recovery whose funding was a legislative win three years back.

The Island’s Democrats were joined by stakeholders to celebrate critical initiatives passed in this year’s state budget to combat Long Island’s pernicious opioid epidemic.

Those stakeholders include parents of those lost to the epidemic, those in recovery and those in the prevention and addiction field, including the CEO of Family & Children’s Association Jeffrey Reynolds, of Smithtown.

“There is still much work to be done to combat the opioid epidemic we are seeing here on Long Island,” Martinez said.

She looked to Reynolds to the right of the podium and shared that he was tenacious in getting the Long Island’s senators’ attention as the hours dwindled in budget meetings. “He used social media and tagged every single one of us and let us know what funding was missing in the budget.”

Kaplan said the crisis affects every community, every school and every community.

Long Island advocates rally in Albany for the state to do more about the opioid crisis on LI Lobby Day in March.

“Too many innocent souls have been lost to this disease, they have been failed time and again,” Kaplan said. “We are done with halfmeasures — we will do everything we can to help people get into long-term recovery.”

One such measure included and passed in the budget was the funding of another THRIVE center for Nassau in Hempstead. The doors are scheduled to open next month.

Kaminsky met with some Long Island parents who lost loved ones to the epidemic prior to the budget process. Figures released by the addiction experts on Long Island put that figure at 3,400 since 2010.

“When a parent tells you the story of how they found their child (dead), you want to make sure another parent doesn’t experience that,” said Kaminsky.

When it came to budget negotiations that lasted around the clock, the state senator said they would not take no for an answer.

Suffolk County has long been a powerhouse when it comes to shining a light on the opioid epidemic and taking legislative measures to address it. Packages of historic bills have been pushed through statewide by Suffolk County advocates. The county is one of the state’s hardest hit counties and they were the first county in the country to file a lawsuit against Purdue Pharma, the makers of the drug OxyContin.

Reynolds addressed the senators on behalf of the sixty-plus advocates present. “ ‘Thank you’ seems insufficient. You promised on campaign trails you would do good for Long Island. Thank you so much for your efforts,” he stated.

However, Reynolds promised that he and the Long Island advocacy movement will always ask the senators to do more.

Doctors and researchers remain hopeful about future pancreatic treatments

BY ANTHONY FRASCA DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

After multiple Emmy award-winning “Jeopardy!” host, Alex Trebek, announced that he had stage 4 pancreatic cancer, the news has drawn attention to the disease and raised questions related to the latest advances in diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Dr. Aaron Sasson, director of the Pancreatic Cancer Center at Stony Brook University and chief of the Surgical Oncology

Division, said little has changed when it comes to a doctor’s ability to diagnose the cancer any earlier.

“But we have made improvements in imaging of pancreatic cancer,” he said. “That is, the quality of CT scans and MRIs has improved over the years.”

Kerri Kaplan, president and CEO of the Lustgarten Foundation, said the disease has been “notoriously difficult” to detect and treat. The organization is dedicated to pancreatic cancer research.

“Although great strides are being made to detect pancreatic

Opportun

cancer earlier, this disease has few warning signs and vague symptoms that may range from back pain, fatigue and loss of appetite, amongst others,” she said in an email.

Kaplan added, “Even when there are early signs and symptoms, they may easily be attributed to other illnesses.

Because of this, patients are often diagnosed when the cancer is at an advanced stage or has spread to other organs — making them ineligible to undergo surgery, which is the best chance at long-term survival.”

According to the foundation, pancreatic cancer research is moving faster than ever before. The nonprofit is funding a range of innovative projects including artificial intelligence in a partnership with Pancreatic Cancer Collective to use computational approaches to identifying high-risk pancreatic cancer populations, and CancerSEEK, which is an early detection initiative that uses blood testing to identify eight different types of cancer including pancreatic cancer.

Other Lustgarten projects include Dr. David Tuveson of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory leading a personalized approach to medicine called organoids for personalized therapy — a three-dimensional cell culture system which reproduces a patient’s tumor to test it repeatedly with different drugs. This approach will enable researchers to determine how a pancreatic cancer patient will respond to various treatments.

And with an improved imaging and early detection project, scientists from a broad range of disciplines focus on the use of computers to recognize patterns in medical imaging with the goal of finding tumors when they are otherwise undetectable by the human eye.

Also, as a result of Lustgarten-funded research, the U.S. Food & Drug Association recently approved Keytruda as the first immunotherapy treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer patients whose tumors have a unique genetic mutation.

“In the last 10 years our understanding of pancreatic cancer has significantly improved,” Sasson said. “I think we are on the cusp of something remarkable in the next couple of years coming out with regards to treatment. Our understanding of the genetics the biology and immunotherapy of pancreatic cancer, all those things are going to be realized, I’m hopeful, in the next couple of years.”

The five-year survival rate for pancreatic cancer is 9 percent according to the American Cancer Society. Pancreatic cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States. Improvements in survival rates for pancreatic cancer are challenging because nearly half of the cancers are not detected until they are in advanced stages.

SBU basketball team welcomes new recruit

BY DAVID LUCES DLUCES@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM The Stony Brook University women’s basketball team welcomed a special top recruit to its ranks April 24 as Amelia Garcia, of Centereach officially became a member of the team through the school’s Team IMPACT program.

Team IMPACT is a national nonprofit organization based in Boston that connects children facing serious or chronic illnesses with college athletic teams, forming life-long bonds and life-changing outcomes.

The 11-year-old Centereach native was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes in 2012 and is an avid fan of the Seawolves.

Joined by her family and friends as well as members of the basketball team, Amelia took part in a special draft day celebration where she signed an official letter of intent to join the team and received a customary team jersey, T-shirt and basketball shoes.

“It’s a special day for us, as we welcome Amelia into our Seawolves family,” said Caroline McCombs, head basketball coach.

Sophomore forward Oksana Gouchie-Provencher said when the team found out they had been matched with a die-hard Stony Brook women’s basketball fan, they were all excited.

“We are so happy to welcome you to our team and

be a part of our journey,” she said.

As a member of the team, Amelia will attend Seawolves practices, games, team dinners, events and more.

Since 2011, Team IMPACT has matched more than 1,700 children with more than 500 colleges and universities in 49 states, reaching over 50,000 participating student-athletes.

Romaine makes pledge for Earth Day PSEG celebrates Earth Week in Brookhaven Town of Brookhaven Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) signed a pledge Earth Day, April 22, supporting the town to move to 100 percent clean, renewable energy across all sectors, according to the Sierra Club. With a population of 500,000, Brookhaven would become the largest municipality in the state to aim for 100 percent clean energy.

The pledge asks the municipality to work with state agencies to access existing renewable energy programs and funding in order to implement near-term solutions as well as advocating for support from state and federal resources to achieve the goal.

Several municipalities have already used state resources to move toward a renewable future.

“In Brookhaven Town, our commitment to 100 percent renewable energy is a top priority, and I will continue to stay the course until we reach our goal,” Romaine said.

“Thousands of solar panels have already been installed on Town properties including the Holtsville Ecology Site, Manorville Compost Facility and Town Hall, and by August, we’ll have 10,000 more at Brookhaven Calabro Airport. As a long-time supporter, I pledge to continue working with the Sierra Club to keep Brookhaven Town on the leading edge of the

most innovative clean energy solutions.”

Signing this pledge is in addition to Romaine’s years of environmental support and his commitment to act on climate. Currently, the town’s operations are projected to result in a 50 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions in 2020, and they are already seeing a 30 percent reduction in street light energy consumption from 2013 levels.

Brookhaven has plans to purchase all-electric vehicles and integrate them into the municipal fleet as well as continue installing electric vehicle charging stations on the town’s properties.

“Signing this pledge proves Supervisor Romaine’s commitment to acting on climate and supporting New York’s goal of reaching 100 percent clean, renewable energy,” said Jessica Enzmann, Long Island organizing representative at the Sierra Club. “Supervisor Romaine has been a clean energy champion in his hometown of Suffolk County through his constant support of offshore wind, and now he’s flexing his climate muscle even more by being the largest municipality in New York to pledge 100 percent clean energy. It’s time for other municipalities to step up and take the pledge. We’ve already seen them take steps toward making it a reality.”

In honor of Earth Day, more than 100 PSEG Long Island employees came together April 18 in the Town of Brookhaven to beautify a local park, reduce Long Island’s carbon footprint by helping customers lower their overall electrical demand, and educate the next generation about the importance of conserving energy.

PSEG Long Island volunteers distributed free reusable shopping bags and wildflower seeds to shoppers at the Stop & Shop in Setauket, the ShopRite in Port Jefferson Station, the King Kullen in Eastport and the King Kullen in Patchogue. Another team handed out free LED bulbs at Brookhaven Town Hall.

Meanwhile, another team of employees walked down Route 112 offering free energy audits to small businesses to help encourage them to install more efficient lighting to save energy and money.

Students at Oxhead Elementary in Centereach enjoyed “The Conservation Caper,” a PSEG Long Island-sponsored play about energy efficiency staged by the National Theater for Children.

“I’m proud to work for a company that wants to make a difference,” said Regina Pizzonia, a Medford resident and PSEG Long Island employee who volunteered. “PSEG

Long Island isn’t going to just one community.

We are going to numerous communities so everyone can be involved in making an impact.

Earth Week is a time to give back to the earth.

If we all did a little something every day, we wouldn’t need an event to clean it up.”

SBU’s Del Poeta battles drug-resistant fungus

BY DANIEL DUNAIEF DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Maurizio Del Poeta, a professor in the Department of Molecular Genetics & Microbiology at Renaissance School of Medicine at Stony Brook University, works to combat potentially deadly fungal infections.

Recently, several press reports have highlighted the prevalence in New York and New Jersey of Candida auris, which is resistant to drugs and can cause death. Through an email exchange, Del Poeta shared his perspective on this fungal infection and his efforts to develop a treatment.

Are there multiple drug-resistant strains of numerous types of Candida?

Yes, there are several species of Candida that are resistant to some antifungals. For instance, Candida lusitaniae is normally resistant to amphotericin B. Candida glabrata is normally resistant to fluconazole. There are over 20 species of Candida that can cause infection in humans. Most are sensitive to antifungals. C. auris is normally resistant to all antifungals.

They are resistant for mainly two reasons: (1) the target/enzyme is genetically different and, thus, the drug does not recognize the target; thus it does not bind to the target; and thus it does not inhibit it; (2) the drug is pumped out by membrane transporters. C. auris is notorious for having multiple membrane transporters.

I understand the damage from Candida is primarily among people who are immunocompromised. Is there a risk for those people who are also healthy?

Healthy people should be fine. But who is really “healthy?” Because C. auris is spreading in hospitals and nursing homes, all patients in hospitals and nursing homes are at risk: some more (e.g., cancer patients, patients with an organ transplant, patients in ICU, patients taking corticosteroids) and some patients have less risk because they are more immunocompetent, but certainly those patients could get contaminated.

What makes it so hard to eliminate Candida?

Because (1) we are not used to and (2) because we still do not know which type of disinfectant is efficacious against C. auris …

Unlike other Candida infections, which are generally thought to result from autoinfection from host flora, C. auris can be transmitted between patients … C. auris requires implementation of specific infection control measures, such as those used for control of [other infections] (e.g., private room and on contact precautions). Because C. auris can

Maurizio Del Poeta works in his lab. Photo from Stony Brook University

survive in plastic surfaces, floors, and door knobs for weeks, it is essential that infection control measurements be implemented in the health care settings.

Does the work you’re doing offer hope, albeit in the earlier stages, for ways to treat and reduce the virulence of Candida?

Yes, our new compounds are sensitive to C. auris in vitro against the C. auris clinical isolates that are resistant to current antifungals.

We are currently testing their efficacy in vivo (animals). We are doing this in collaboration with the National Institutes of Health and the Health Science Center in San Antonio, Texas.

Our compounds have different mechanism of action from the current antifungals, Given that the symptoms of a Candida infection — fever, weakness and aches — are so prevalent in other types of infections, are there ways to make a clinically differentiated diagnosis of Candida without taking a blood sample or conducting extensive analysis?

Unfortunately, there are not. Diagnosis of C. auris can only be made using sophisticated tests. Normal phenotypic tests are not able to identify C. auris for certain. If we want to stop (or at least control) the epidemic, anyone with a Candida infection in a hospital setting should be treated as C. auris. Hospital trafficking of

nurses, doctors, visitors from and to patients with C. auris should be highly restricted.

Nurses and doctors should not be allowed in cafeteria without changing gowns, particularly if they are taking care of a patient infected with C. auris and other common sense practices should be implemented; but, unfortunately, they are normally out of the window in the hospital settings … In the case of C. auris “isolating rooms” and “contact precautions” should be implemented.

How does your treatment for Candida work?

The class of compounds are “acylhydrazones.” They target the synthesis of fungal sphingolipids.

Given what you know about the prevalence of Candida, particularly in New York, and the minimal information about the specific locations where hospitals have found Candida, what would you advise anyone who might be “at risk” for Candida to do if they had elective surgery scheduled?

Elderly and immunocompromised people going to the hospital should be treated with “contact precautions.” No need for isolation unless positive for C. auris.

Is C. auris the most virulent or problematic species of Candida confronting

public health professionals today?

Not really. C. glabrata is also a nasty Candida strain. What makes C. auris difficult is the resistance to drugs.

Do other species suffer through Candida infections as well?

Although humans are the most known carriers and hosts for Candida infection, other animals can also get infected such as dogs, horses and cattle. Certain Candida species are used in food production. Candida utilis extracts are used in Asia as a “salt” instead of salt because these extracts are salty and do not cause hypertension.

We actually have a collaboration with the Japanese company that makes these extracts.

Candida krusei is used to ferment cacao during chocolate production. Whereas C. utilis is not a human pathogen, C. krusei actually is.

How do you protect yourself, your office and your staff from the spread of the infection?

We use biosafety label 2. My lab is certified to handle BSL2 organisms, such as C. auris.

We use all sorts of protective gears and standard protective procedures to make sure lab personnel are protected and to make sure we keep the microbes inside the lab. Entrance to my lab is strictly prohibited to anyone that did not receive appropriate training.

The Port Jefferson Chamber of Commerce hosted its annual Easter parade and egg hunt April 21, sneaking in the event between the weekend rains.

Starting from Theatre Three, the young kids of Port Jefferson and the surrounding communities strode down Main Street toward Harborfront Park, where chamber volunteers had been planting eggs since 11 a.m. Yellow police tape acted as a guard and a starting line for the kids, many dressed in face paint and bunny ears, before they could run off to collect their eggs.

Once the tape was removed, those kids were like a swarm of piranhas, and the field was stripped clean of the brightly colored eggs before one could say “Happy Easter.”

After the race for eggs, kids had the opportunity to take a picture with the Easter Bunny, namely Chamber President Barbara Ransome dressed in the trademarked costume, before walking away with a chocolate bunny.

Rain no match for egg hunters

BY RITA J. EGAN RITA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM The rain this past weekend didn’t stop a certain rabbit from dropping off goodies at Benner’s Farm for Three Village and neighboring children.

The farm hosted egg hunt events April 20 and 21, where children found plastic eggs filled with treats and stuffed animals.

Families also were able to visit with the farm’s baby animals, check out crafts from vendors, play on the big swing, walk the trails and take pictures with the Easter Bunny.

For more photos from Benner’s Farm as well as the St. James R. C. Church egg hunt April 21, visit www. tbrnewsmedia.com.

Opinion

Editorial

Road rules

We can’t help but notice while commuting to work or on the road to cover a story that many people aren’t yielding the right of way to emergency vehicles which race to help our neighbors. It’s a complaint we’ve heard from our fellow drivers as well as the men and women who dedicate their time to making our communities a safer and better place to live.

Whether on a congested road or one where traffic is flowing freely, not yielding to a fire truck, police car or ambulance with their lights flashing and sirens blaring could lead to firefighters not being able to rescue the occupants of a burning house or a heart attack victim not being saved.

For decades, the main rules have remained simple — slow down and pull to the right of the road parallel to the curb and stop when you see an emergency vehicle with its lights and siren on near the vicinity of your vehicle. Don’t merge back into traffic until all emergency vehicles have passed, unless a police officer if present tells you otherwise. Of course, rules suggest motorists keep clear of any intersection and not tailgate a fire truck in hopes of bypassing all the other drivers who are trying to merge back into traffic.

For years now, in New York state, drivers must also be mindful of emergency or hazard vehicles, such as tow trucks, that are parked, stopped or standing along the side of a road. Called the Move Over Law, drivers are required to slow down and move over a lane away from the vehicle if it’s safe to do so.

Of course, many people are familiar with the laws, and others may not necessarily be breaking them on purpose. Car cabins today are made to keep outside noise to a minimum, so it was no surprise to us when we learned that many local fire departments are using horns with a deeper bass feature so drivers can feel them in addition to hearing them — if they hear them.

Sometimes, it comes down to being more mindful while sharing the road with both other vehicles and the people in the big red-and-white trucks with lights flashing.

Not hearing these sirens can also be attributed to car stereos or from people enjoying their music with earbuds. There is also the case of drivers distracted with their cellphones or when texting, even though it’s illegal.

As the weather gets warmer, and more people will be out on the road trying to enjoy all the Island has to offer, we encourage our readers to reacquaint themselves with the rules of the road or pay closer attention to other vehicles. If you’re already well versed in the laws, have a conversation with others in your life, especially younger ones who are not as familiar with the rules.

The main goal is to make it easier for our emergency workers because if it were our house or life they were saving, or that of a loved one, we would want them to get to us as quickly as possible.

Letters … We welcome your letters. They should be no longer than 400 words and may be edited for length, libel, style and good taste. We do not publish anonymous letters. Please include a phone number and address for confirmation. Email letters to rita@tbrnewsmedia.com or mail them to The Times of Middle Country, P.O. Box 707, Setauket, NY 11733.

Letters to the editor

Acknowledging inequality in school districts

I read with interest your editorial from April 18 — “Reform school taxes.” This is a topic about which I had written you in 2006.

Nothing has changed in 13 years.

It is not just that “these measures are merely band-aid solutions to a larger, chronic problem: income inequality.”

While income inequality is indeed a huge problem in America, this is not the sole cause of many of the problems encountered in our public schools. These are caused principally by the mechanism of school funding and in the structure of school administration. For historical reasons, schools in the U.S. are funded primarily through property taxes, resulting in there being good school districts and bad school districts. That is, education funding and educational opportunities are zip-code dependent. Why do we tolerate this?

To effect a fairer distribution of resources so that all our children have

comparable access to a quality education several steps need to be taken.

First, we need to acknowledge that there is inequality in educational opportunities. Second, we need to commit to eliminating this inequality. Third, the financial underpinning of primary and secondary school must be changed. And fourth, the cost of education per se could be reduced without any loss of quality.

Some solutions come immediately to mind, such as the dependence on property taxes to fund our public schools must change. All of us, not just property owners, should pay for public education, the product of which, educated children, benefits all of us. To distribute the burden more fairly, our public schools should be funded through a simple but progressive income tax. The distribution of the money so raised should be based on the number of students in a given school, the particular

needs of that set of students and the physical needs of a given school. And second, the administration of our public schools should also change. To reduce the per student cost of education without any loss of quality, we could consolidate school districts. Suffolk County has 69 school districts in 10 towns, plus charter and other schools. Of these, by my count, there are 13 school districts in Brookhaven Town. Each school district is a taxing authority and has staff redundant with neighboring districts. One school district per town should work, thereby reducing substantially the administrative costs.

How much of taxpayer money would that save? Think about it. Identifying solutions to these problems is possible, but it will take politicians with leadership skills and some courage. These are characteristics uncommon in politicians simply seeking re-election.

Consider donating to local nonprofit You see so many commercials each day containing information about shelter pets, recovering patients at our local hospitals, varying ways to lose weight, but you haven’t seen us. We are the volunteers and clients of Three Village Meals on Wheels.

I’m sure you know at least one volunteer or one client connected with this wonderful organization. At midday, Monday through Friday, two appetizing and nutritional meals are delivered: a hot lunch on a tray and a bag containing a cold meal.

Have you ever wondered how we’re funded? We are not affiliated with the

national Meals on Wheels program. This allows us to serve clients of all ages as we do not require clients to be at least 60 years old.

Since we are not connected to the federal program, we receive no federal funding. We rely strictly on fundraising to keep the program going. Many of our clients pay for their meals; however, we have more and more clients who cannot afford to pay for them, and we therefore subsidize their costs. Our main fund drive is in the fall, but we appreciate any contributions at any time.

While on this subject, we would like to thank the Stony Brook Community

Church Youth Group, who recently supported our organization by hosting the Empty Bowl Soup & Bread Supper.

The youth decided the profits from this night would go to support Three Village Meals on Wheels. We would love any group looking to support a local organization to consider us. Donating to us is simple. Go to our website www.3villagemealsonwheels.org and click on the “To Donate” button. We also accept checks, which can be mailed or delivered to our office at 216 Christian Ave., Stony Brook, NY 11790.

Thank you to Three Village Church I attended the Easter egg hunt at the Three Village Church in East Setauket, across 25A from Se-port Deli, this past Saturday. I had been to the egg hunt a few years ago when it was held outdoors, in good weather, and had wondered how the church would be able to reproduce the wonderful experience my grandchildren had that day.

I was so impressed. The inside of the church’s building was transformed into a “playground” for children. There was a lovely film to explain the meaning of Easter in a way that children could easily

understand. The rooms and activities were well organized. There was a specific sequence of events for each age group which allowed the children to go from one place to another easily and stress free. So many children but no crowded or inaccessible areas.

The staff was welcoming, and it was so obvious that a lot of hard work went into the planning and execution of this beautiful event. Games were set up and even a table of treats, fruit and flavored water were provided for all.

In this day and age, when so many

troubling events occur around the world, the generosity of the members of this church is such a breath of fresh air. It is a reminder of the goodness of mankind and that there are still caring, thoughtful and generous people among us. This event was free and open to all who wished to come.

I want to take this opportunity to thank all the people who worked so hard to give so much. You have contributed to making this world a better place.

Opinion

The perfect imperfection of a posed picture

S

omething about a posed picture brings out the prankster in me. I realize, of course, that posed pictures can and do capture a moment when a group of people come together.

In fact, I recently visited the athletic center of one of the colleges that admitted my daughter and stared, for hours, at the faces of D. None athletes over the decades who took of the above time out from their

BY DANIEL DUNAIEF sports games and practices to have a picture taken. Without the uniformity and decorum, these pictures would have been a freefor-all with little structure.

And yet, in my own life, I can’t help seeing the camera and the formal process as an invitation to assert my individuality or, at the very least, to force the formality off someone’s face.

I can trace this back to formal extended family photo sessions we had when my brothers and I were young teenagers. Every so often, the aunts, uncles and cousins would get together.

When they did, someone inevitably wanted to capture the moment for people to revisit years later, which, I guess, is around now, given how long ago the younger versions of ourselves forced a smile on our faces for those pictures.

So, anyway, I remember this one picture, when I was standing between both of my brothers, which made sense at the time because I am the middle child and my younger brother hadn’t decided I stopped way too early in the height department. As the photographer was getting ready to take the picture, I reached down as subtly as I could and pinched my older brother’s thigh, causing him to grin broadly at

just the right moment, if you’re me — or the wrong moment, if you’re the photographer.

To her credit, my mom kept that goofy picture because, unknown to me, the photographer had taken a head-to-toe shot that clearly showed my fingers pinching my brother.

When my younger brother got married, I recall my father’s extended family all trying to line up for a family photo or, as my aunt said at the time, a fa-mi-lee pho-to, as she enunciated each syllable in a way that would cause poets to cringe. She accented all of the syllables and spoke so loudly that the camera picked up her demand to get everyone in their place.

Later, as we watched my brother’s wedding video, the whole family discovered an unknown treat. At some point, the videographer had clearly asked my uncle, one of the more serious and least playful people I ever met, if he had any marital advice for the newlyweds.

Seated in a chair by himself, with the music playing in the background and plates of hors d’oeuvres passing in and out of the frame, he

paused for a moment before looking straight at the camera.

“It’s a sense of humor,” he said, cracking the smallest of wry smiles.

As my daughter and nephew prepare for their high school and college graduations, I can’t help wondering what the young men and women in the photos will be thinking when the many amateur photographers insist that they move a step to their left, lean to their right, stand up straight or open their eyes wider, no, less wide, no, wait, wider.

Hopefully, my daughter and nephew will be able to look back at pictures and see something more than a group of people celebrating one moment as they prepare for the next one.

Hopefully, the camera will capture something, small though it may be, that brings a smile to their faces months or years later. Maybe the perfect imperfection will transport them back to the moment someone insisted that they “give us a natural smile” on cue.

My family is celebrating big time this year

C

elebrations are a beautiful thing. Besides being festive, they tell us who we are, where we come from and maybe even where we are going. For example, the Fourth of July reminds us that we are Americans, Thanksgiving Day prompts stories about our history and that we have aspects of our lives to be thankful for. Religious holidays strengthen our beliefs and traditions.

And the best part of celebrations can be that they bring us together — as a nation, as sports fans Between of a winning team, you and me as members of a particular block or

BY LEAH S. DUNAIEF just as a family.

My family looks to ceremonialize as much and as often as we can.

The month of May has been especially kind to us in that regard this year. For starters, my oldest grandson will be graduating from college in Boston in May. My granddaughter will graduate from high school in Charlotte, North Carolina, later in the month. Both have earned their next stage in life. To continue the party, my youngest son will celebrate a big birthday at the beginning of July. We try to get together for some of the Dunaief birthdays each year. And any other excuse — new job, acceptance to college, a new success at work, an honor bestowed on a member — any occasion serves. A triumph by one can be an opportunity to rejoice by all.

Celebrations can establish traditions, and traditions can provide structure for each year.

With such framework can come togetherness and the security of a community. The community can be as small as a family coming for Sunday dinner to eat the tomato sauce that’s been cooking slowly on the stove in grandma’s kitchen much of the day. Or it can be as large as one of the world’s great religions that transcend national and international boundaries. A community can

be of one’s sex, or age, or station, or nationality, or village, or school district or neighborhood.

There is great power in community — a defining and anchoring identity, a sense of inclusion.

So how do most people celebrate?

The answer is usually with food, but not always or only that way. For my grandson’s graduation, we will all come together in the bleachers of Fenway Park and variously cheer or boo the Red Sox, depending on our individual intelligence. We will stay in the city a couple of days and perhaps visit one of the many terrific museums. Maybe we will even take a duck boat ride on the Charles River or a swan boat ride on the Boston Common or a historic walk through the many hallowed neighborhoods. Any and all of those will make for lifetime memories that will encourage us to further celebrate by making them into traditions and perhaps repeating them or recalling them with amusement whenever we get together. Common stories are part of what unite us, as a people and as a family. Oh, and there will surely be lots of seafood throughout our stay in Beantown.

In Charlotte, we will be newcomers eager to explore the new hometown for one of my sons and his dynamic family. Before they moved, we were already acquainted with how long the flight was from here to there, and which airlines made the trip. It is inherently exciting to explore a new region of the country, with its different festivities, histories and traditions — and regional foods.

By now you have surely gotten the correct impression that my family enjoys traveling and celebrating on its stomach.

For my youngest son’s birthday, there is always a baseball game involving us. He gets to stay up at bat as we take turns pitching to him, and he typically knocks the ball out of the park. Other times we get to chase it all over the field. Such is the privilege of the birthday kid.

They are completing one stage and entering the next one, members of my family, and that is so significant as to be noticed and marked with congratulations and optimism. By celebrating together, we are saying, “Well done! And we are with you all the way.”
