A ma n r unning a 1 2,000 -mile route from Canada to the bottom tip of South America made a pit stop in Newnan.

Oh, and he’s running the entire distance barefoot.

Joseph Micheal Liu began his trek from Montreal, Canada. His goal is the capital city of Tierra del Fuego, Ushuaia, considered to be the southernmost city of the world. Liu is running to raise awareness and funding for charity, and he is running the entire distance without shoes.

“After so many miles, it hurts,” Liu said. “You have to transition your running from using shoes, and it took me a full two years of training. I also ran cross country for six years.”

Liu’s charity, Edible Schoolyard, is a nonprofit organization that hopes to introduce and supply children from low-income families with organic fresh fruits and vegetables. The organization seeks to blend organic and edible gardening with children’s elementary school education to teach them about healthier eating habits.

Edible Schoolyard has two branches in New York City and New Orleans.

Liu is running the entire distance solo with the help of donations and sponsors. Each day, he tries to run between 15 and 25 miles, with his maximum so far being 33 miles. He explained how he has chosen his route to work with the seasons and is trying to stay ahead of winter.

So far, Liu has run down the East Coast, following the Appalachian Trail, from Montreal. From Georgia, he plans to run through New Orleans to Houston and over the border into Mexico. He will be running along the Gulf of Mexico to Guatemala, and then along the Pacific Ocean to Panama.

Because of the geography of Panama and the Darien Gap, he will take a boat to northern Colombia, then will continue south along the Qhapaq Nan Trail through Ecuador, Peru and Chile. Finally, he will cut through Argentina and follow the Atlantic Ocean to Tierra del Fuego.

Liu began his trip with a backpack to carry his gear — which was pretty heavy and included a tent, sleeping bag, water reservoir, clothes, a satellite communicator, solar panels, and a cell phone, his only connection to the world.

“I knew if I continued, I wasn’t going to make it,” Liu said.

Fortunately, one of his 28 sponsors, Chariot, specializes in making baby carriages for runners. Liu plans to continue running with the carriage taking the weight of his gear. His other sponsors, which include Concordia University — where he graduated with an Industrial Engineering degree, multiple outdoor fitness and gear companies and superfood store Chosen Foods, have helped Liu on his journey.

So far, Liu said his trip has mostly gone without a hitch. Mostly.

“I almost got hit by a car on my

OCTOBER: BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH

Sisters fight breast cancer together as ‘cancer cadets’ Editor’s note: Two sisters share their journey battling breast cancer, part of The Newnan Times-Herald’s special focus in October for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month has taken on new meaning for sisters Tammye Hicks and Lisa Maynard.

The sisters consider themselves “cancer cadets,” fighting breast cancer together with their mantra: “God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”

Maynard, an advocate for the elderly and the homeless in Griffin, and Hicks, a well-known educator here in Coweta County at Smokey Road Middle School, were diagnosed with breast cancer only two months apart. Their situation is so unique, it stuns doctors and health-care teams.

The sisters have no history of breast cancer in their family, do not carry the Sisters Lisa Maynard and Tammye Hicks are fighting breast cancer together.

Smokey Road Middle earns grant for Euphonium The Coweta Community Foundation (CCF) recently awarded Smokey Road Middle School (SRMS) a $1000.00 grant from its newly-established T homas Mckeeha n fund.

McKeeh a n , a long-t i me Senoia resident, was once described as Senoia’s “one man cultural center.” The new fund was established in his honor to benefit worthy charitable organizations in the Coweta County area.

Jenny Grote, SR MS PTO President, resea rched t he grant opportunity and worked with former SRMS Principal Dr. Laurie Barron to submit the application. Barron suggested the Band Department wou ld benef it i m men sely from the grant. Band students are responsible for providing their own instruments, but not all students can afford this responsibility.

The SRMS Band has a small inventory of instruments and strives to put instruments in the hands of every student who wants to learn music.

Unfortunately, the inventory is aging and needs repair.

“We felt very strong about providing the gift of music to these students,” said Grote.

“This new instrument will

Smokey Road students are pictured here with a new instrument. Front row (from left to right) - Jenny Grote, Stephanie Cannon, Katelyn Cannon, Rachael Whitney, Clifford Bridges. Back Row (from left to right): Deidre Bembry, former Principal Laurie Barron, Heaven Jackson, Amy Sweet, Joshua Boyd and James Weldon

be used for years to come at SRMS and will ignite the passion for learning and performing music to all students who otherwise may not have the personal funds to explore music. ” When the director of bands, Dr. Joshua Boyd, learned the grant would be used to purchase a new Euphonium, he was ecstatic. He shared that the students are excited about the new horn and word is spreading quickly that something new and exciting is available to play on.

“It is so hard to purchase instruments with only monies from student fundraisers,” said Boyd. “We are very appreciat ive for pa r t ners like the Coweta Community Foundation.”

Because of Thomas McKeehan’s generosity, his legacy and his passion for the arts continue to touch the community. In honor of this legacy, CCF will utilize the newly created Thomas McKeehan fund to benefit deserving charitable organizations.

of socioeconomic status, race, gender and political affiliation.

Hicks emphasizes the importance of women getting mammograms. Mammography detected her stage three cancer, while her sister was diagnosed with stage two triple negative breast cancer after finding a lump. The invasive ductal carcinoma that occupied her breast was undetectable by self-exam and presented no lump or symptoms.

“I procrastinated for three years in keeping up with yearly mammograms thinking this disease does not run in my family; so I am safe. I will just wait until next year,” Hicks said. “I scheduled a mammogram with haste after my sister was diagnosed in January of this year. My sister’s diagnosis saved my life.”

“People often look at having cancer as an automatic death sentence,” Hicks said.

She has learned through her and her sister’s journey that it is not a death sentence, but a

renewed life journey.

Breast cancer screenings are very important to the health a nd wel l-bei ng of women across all demographics, Hicks said. The disease bears no discrimination. While many breast cancer patients are women, statistics have shown that there is an alarming rate of men being diagnosed with the disease.

Many advances have been made through research that is helping to fight the disease and save lives, Hicks said.

Organizations such as The Susan G. Komen for the Cure, The American Cancer Society and many other local organizations give support to women facing a diagnosis of breast cancer, Hicks noted.

T he sisters encourage women with risk factors and women over 40 to get yearly breast screenings for early detection.

The sisters would like to remind ever yone that “we are here on this planet to better humanity and for common good. Life’s purpose is not about us individually, but collectively. Where there is God, there is Love, where there is Love, there is Hope.”

PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY If You Suffer From A Single One Of These Torturous Symptoms — Numbness, Tingling, Burning or Sharp Nerve Pain In Your Feet — DESPITE WHAT MANY DOCTORS MAY TELL YOU, PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY CAN BE EFFECTIVELY TREATED

Peripheral Neuropathy affects every part of your life — walking, sleeping, socializing, sometimes even sitting and so much more.

Ask Yourself These 5 Questions:

If you have tried “everything” (Lyrica®, Neurotin®, physical therapy, orthotics for your shoes, even injections) without getting the lasting results you want then you may be the perfect candidate for my Neuropathy Program.

There is a simple reason that these treatments fail… because they are only covering up the symptoms. They do not address the root cause of your Peripheral Neuropathy.

We all know this to be true. There is a tremendous difference between covering up your symptoms and actually fixing the underlying problem. Why settle for “band-aid” care, when you could potentially correct the problem?

The Single Most Important Solution To Your Neuropathy Has Been Years in the Making…

It cost me thousands of dollars and countless hours away from my family, researching, reading, talking with experts in the scientific community and racking my brain in order to create a “No-Holds Barred”, exceedingly effective Neuropathy Recovery Program.

Finally my Neuropathy program is available to you.

And the best news is that the principles of my Neuropathy Recovery Program work with both diabetic and nondiabetic types of neuropathy.

How does my Neuropathy Program work? Quite simply, by finding the TRUE cause of your Neuropathy and then having the “know-how” on how to remove that cause. Every patient’s case of Neuropathy will be different, so I don’t have the space here to go into more details. That is why I am offering a Special Evaluation in order to see if you can be helped with my Neuropathy Recovery Program.

My patients know my insider secrets to recovery. They have already received their individualized Neuropathy Recovery Program and are having amazing results.

Here is what they are saying: “This is the first time in many years that I have been able to feel my feet.” -Ben Hollis

As Seen On Atlanta & Company on 11Alive

“I have suffered from severe neuropathy in both feet for close to 10 years. My previous doctors said it was due to my Diabetes and that I would just have to live with it.

After reading about Dr. Dunn, I went to go see him.

I’ve completed the treatment plan that he outlined and am happy to say that I am finally symptom free.”

— Bill Schwartz “Before seeing Dr. Dunn, the neuropathy in my feet was so bad that I couldn’t even drive a car. Now, I can drive myself to get groceries and go to Wal-Mart whenever I want to. Dr. Dunn truly gave me my life back.”

— Mary Jenkins “After the first treatment, I noticed an immediate improvement. For the first time in many years, I was actually able to sleep through the night without my feet waking me up.”

— Susie Sayer Now let me say this, I am not promising that I can cure everyone. I don’t even know if you qualify for my program. That is yet to be determined, and requires a thorough exam and review of your history.

I know that you’ve been promised the moon and stars before and nobody has delivered the goods.

That’s why I’m offering you a risk-free introduction to this program. For a limited time you will receive my Qualifying Examination Special for only $47 if you call before October 31, 2013.

Correct Diagnosis + Correct Treatment = Best Results Possible and Relief.

If you are tired of the institutionalized medical merry-go -round of cover up care, then you need to try my program. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

1. Do you feel like you’re wearing an invisible “sock” over your feet?

2. Does it feel like you are stepping on thumb tacks?

3. Are you extremely sensitive to touch… Burning, Freezing or electric “shocks” into your legs or feet?

4. Are you experiencing Numbness, Tingling, Loss of Feeling or even Weakness in your legs or feet?

5. Are you starting to have balance problems now because of your feet?

If you answered “YES” to any of these questions, chances are you may have Peripheral Neuropathy. If you’ve been suffering for a while and you’re tired of treatments that only give you temporary relief, then I may have the answer you’ve been waiting and hoping for.

Remember, this Special Offer is only good until the 31st of October. Call today 770-450-4541 and we can get you scheduled for your consultation and exam as soon as there’s an opening.

When you call, tell Donna or Jennifer that you’d like to come in for my Neuropathy Recovery Evaluation so she can make sure you receive proper credit for this special offer.

Sincerely, Dr. Matt Dunn, D.C.

P.S. See Dr. Dunn interviewed about Neuropathy on 11Alive Morning and hear him on 95.5 FM “WSB” Dr. Dunn practices in Peachtree City, Georgia and specializes in the treatment of Peripheral Neuropathy and Herniated Discs.

Ferst fundraiser to improve childhood literacy The annual Lewis Grizzard and Catf ish Memorial Bike Ride in Moreland raises funds for early childhood literacy efforts on behalf of the Ferst Foundation.

“Every rider was back before the first drop of rain,” said volunteer Doug Cantrell, whose wife serves on the local Ferst Foundation for Childhood Literacy board. “There were lots of prayers about the weather and God heard us and timed it perfectly,” he said.

The ride began at the historic Moreland Mill and continued through the rural scenery of Coweta County.

Dr. Steve Barker, Coweta County School System superintendent, was there to kick off the ride, while members of the Interact Club from Newnan High volunteered as well.

The mission of the Ferst Foundation is to provide ageappropriate books to ch i ldren from birth to 5 years.

A soldier died today Something a little different today — a combination editorial and column buttressed by yet another column.

Based on Sound Offs, Coweta County is pretty well split on who is to blame for the government shutdown. Depending on your stance, it’s the president’s fault, the House Republicans or the Senate Democrats.

The shutdown is becoming a serious inconvenience for Americans. It’s not for Congress and the White House.

They are still getting paid. They still have their gyms open. Our elected officials need to start feeling the pain instead of going on national talk shows simply to blame the other side.

Maybe they should be furloughed. We know that will never happen. But wouldn’t it be nice to simply surround Congress with armed troops, kick every staff member out

JOHN WINTERS

and let the representatives and senators just stay in their respective chambers until they actually do something? They need to start feeling the pain.

The latest poll said 60 percent of Americans want every senator and congressman voted out — including their own. Time to start over.

I strongly believe the number one priority of the federal government is to protect our nation from all enemies, foreign and domestic. Everything else is secondary. And it’s the one area where we see some glimmer of hope where all sides can actu-

“Our goal is to have each child come to kindergarten ready to learn,” said representative for the foundation Janie Lore. “It is workforce development in its simplest form.”

Businesses considering a

ally agree — and unanimously at that.

In Congressional time, it took nanoseconds to pass a bill to keep paying our soldiers.

A major uproar over delaying the $100,000 “death gratuity” to the families of five soldiers killed last weekend is being addressed.

In Coweta County last week, the Muster was held to honor veterans of the Korean War. Saturday was the 13th anniversary of the bombing of the USS Cole.

We do not need politicians.

We need our military. It is time for politicians to realize they are not the most important people in this country. That their sole job is to represent those who elected them and not some political party line.

In 1987, A. Lawrence Vaincourt wrote a poem titled “Just A Common Soldier.” It speaks volumes about our current situation and where our priorities should be:

community will look at the success of the school system before coming to that area, Lore said.

The foundation finds it paramount to stress education early and often.

“Most of our board members are educators,” Lore said. “We feel that Coweta Ferst Foundation helps bring students to school ready to learn with less remediation.”

Despite the serious intentions behind the fundraiser, the ride is viewed as a way to have fun and explore parts of Coweta County.

The bike ride is named for the late newspaper columnist and author Lewis Grizzard and Catfish, his beloved dog.

It “is a great way to showcase our beautiful county and promote a healthy lifestyle, family time and exercise,” said Lore.

“I am a supporter of lifelong learning, and through this program parents are encouraged to begin reading to their children at birth. This love of read-

ing can then continue for the remainder of the child's life,” she said.

He will not be mourned by many, just his children and his wife, For he lived an ordinary and quite uneventful life.
