Antonio Sanchez’s giving spirit makes Maywood more festive A local businessman and village trustee gave away more than 500 toys to area young people ahead of Christmas.

Antonio Sanchez, the owner of Mariella’s Banquets 124 S. 5th Ave. in Maywood, greeted Maywood-Melrose Park-Broadview District 89 board member Diane Williams and Joe Trujillo, the owner of Try Our Pallets 37 S. 9th Ave. in Maywood, at his banquet facility on Dec. 20 to begin the process of giving all of those toys away.

Sanchez, who hosts the annual toy drive every year, said that this is the biggest year yet for the event. Each year in the months leading up to Christmas, Sanchez seeks donated toys from his customers and area business owners like Trujillo.

This year, he said, he matched every toy that his customers donated while Trujillo provided more than 400 gift cards in addition to the hundreds of toys that were donated. In addition, Sanchez said, the Proviso Township Ministerial Alliance donated scarves, hats and gloves for area young people.

The much-needed holiday gifts will go to students in District 89 and young people identified by officials at the Quinn Center of St. Eulalia in Maywood.

The toy drive is just one part of Sanchez’s annual holiday largesse. On Dec. 19, he hosted 200 Maywood senior citizens at his banquet facility during a free holiday extravaganza that featured a performance by Maywood Fine Arts dancers, among other fun offerings.

The senior party was organized by Larry Shapiro, who facilities the Maywood Senior Club.

“This is what I’m all about — businesses coming together to get things done,” said Sanchez. “That’s what community is about to me.”

VILLAGE perspectives

The unseen needs of young people Not long ago, I met a nice young man. He looked to be about 19 years old, and I will call him Baron. He was kind, soft-spoken, and easy going ... and both he and his pain are invisible to most people.

Baron has a childhood trauma that has never been given the attention it deserves.

He is depressed, addicted to the substances he uses to medicate his suffering and deeply ashamed of the legal run-ins he has amassed.

Sadly, Baron is just a casualty and a statistic in a society that likes to criminalize people who look like him. His legal problems should have been addressed much more humanely and with restorative justice strategies. With beautiful, dark, chocolate skin and a timid grin, Baron had wanted to talk to me.

Someone in the room had informed him that I am a mental health professional.

Quietly, he approached and nervously confided that he would like to speak to somebody about his problems.

As I quickly moved to normalize his assertion, and as I noted the special brand of intelligence and insight it takes for a young man to understand his own complex needs, he began to relax. As I talked about the therapeutic interventions that will help him process and unravel the many ways the devastating events of his childhood

have, without a doubt, sabotaged him, he flashed a warm and grateful smile. I, on the other hand, ached inside.

I was thinking about all the sweet young men and women who deserve access to treatment, but would rather bite nails than admit their profound hurts and sorrows. The encounter I had with Baron is somewhat rare. More often, young people act out their trauma, or proclaim their many disappointments in loud and asinine ways, but resist any suggestion of a need for therapy. Most times, they are determined to pursue the “rugged individualism” that they think characterize the “winners” in this society.

It astounds my young students to learn that many high-powered CEOs and corporate executives are in therapy. They think therapy is the tragic domain of the weak. They do not know that the ability to analyze their feelings with a trained professional is precisely what many privileged people seek — and that is the

problem.

There are a few cruelties that need to be acknowledged, rebuked and reversed: Compassionate mental health providers are not at all as accessible to lower income Black residents in Chicago as they should be and professionals have not done a good job of destroying the stigma surrounding mental health care in our communities.

Certain socioeconomic classes have the resources and supports to access this often life-saving relief, but the less fortunate do not. How can we be comfortable accepting this appalling injustice?

This city exposes our kids to failing schools, economic injustice and unsafe streets policed by too many people who do not value the lives of Black youth, and yet mental health support is not readily available in our neighborhoods. We need safe places for young people in disinvested spaces to explore their authentic feelings about the often crazy things going on

RHONDA SHERROD

around them. They deserve so much better.

In this election season, we should demand specific commitments to the healthy development of our children from every person who has the audacity to run for the privilege of serving this city.

As the holidays draw near, we must pay extra attention to our youth. Joy and happiness may not be what they are experiencing. In fact, this is a time of year when many people feel depressed.

Young people may have unaddressed trauma that does not allow them to feel excited about the season, or they may have lost a supportive relative or friend this year.

They could be facing academic or social challenges in school, or they may have lowpaying, unsatisfying jobs that leave them hopeless. They may be exposed to a threat, of which no one is aware, in their own homes, or they may be homeless.

So, in this season of giving, why not give the gift of your presence by checking in on a young person who doesn’t seem “right” or who has suffered serious losses this year. Also, begin questioning your elected officials. Where are the mental health resources that our youth deserve in their communities?

— Dr. Rhonda Sherrod

Nurse, Proviso East grad thanked for saving baby Claudia Lopez praised for 2016 act during birth of child at Westlake

By NONA TEPPER Forest Park Review

After graduating from Proviso East High School in 2002, Claudia Lopez first went into real estate, working in Chicago for the next 14 years. She then became a pharmacy technician, working for Walgreens, and eventually applied to study to become a pharmacist. But something about that venture didn’t feel right; the Maywood woman prayed about her future.

“I just looked out for God like, ‘Where do you want me to be? What do you want from me?’ and realized God wanted me to become a nurse,” Lopez said. “I feel so blessed. Not everybody is working in the field they want to be in, but I feel a sense of meaning to what I want to do. Every day is very stressful — it can be very, very stressful — but I always feel I am where I’m supposed to be.”

Once scared of needles and drawing blood, Lopez applied to nursing school at Triton College and was immediately accepted into the program, where she attended classes

while working full-time. She graduated and ccepted her dream job at Westlake Hospital in Maywood.

“I wanted to be in the same community in Proviso Township,” she said. “I have a lot of family here. I know a lot of people in the community and I know that I’m needed in the community because I’m Spanish-speaking and there’s a large Latino population there. I’m Mexican American. It worked out beautifully.”

But on the cold night of Feb. 3, 2016, Lopez’s work was needed more urgently than usual.

Vicelis Roman, of Chicago, had just given birth to her third child, Jacob.

Before Lopez went to work that night she prayed, as she always does, “that God will help me care for patients adequately, give them the best care I could provide that day.”

She arrived for her shift at 7 p.m. and Jacob, roughly 12 hours old, was sitting in the delivery room; the mother and father were fast asleep.

After she gave birth, Roman told hospital

staff she thought the baby’s breathing sounded irregular, that she heard slight grunts and wheezing. The doctor and delivery nurse told her the baby was fine, just transitioning to life outside the womb.

But when Lopez saw the new baby, she immediately thought: “I don’t like the noise the baby is making.” His skin was pale and lips blue.

“He just kept getting worse and worse, almost by the second,” she said.

Jacob was incubated, underwent chest X-rays and CAT scans and hospital staff realized Jacob did not have a respiratory issue but a cardiac problem. The boy was transferred to Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago, where the next day doctors performed open heart surgery. Roman was discharged from the hospital early the next day.

Lopez never found out what happened to the new mother and her young son.

“I didn’t even really know if the baby had survived,” she said, and remembered

Submitted

A SPECIAL GIFT: Claudia Lopez, far left, with the Roman family. Vicelis Roman, far right, sought out Lopez, who saved Jacob Roman’s life when he was a newborn.

him every time another baby came in with cardiac issues or was transferred to Lurie.

More than two years later, Roman posted on Facebook, writing, in part: “Every year I pick someone special to give a gift of appreciation to during Christmas.

For the past two years I’ve been on the search to find the woman who saved my son’s life. […] It’s my mission to find this nurse and my mission to give her the recognition she deserves. Because in my eyes she’s on top of the world and that’s the view I want her to feel and see.”

She tagged Westlake Hospital in the post.

Just three days after writing on Facebook, the hospital contacted Roman, offering to reunite her and Lopez. Roman jumped at the offer.

Once Jacob’s initial open heart surgery was complete and things had settled into a routine at home, nearly three years ago, Roman had returned to Westlake, attempting to thank Lopez for saving her son’s life. But hospital staff refused, as a privacy measure.

“People live in this little bubble. I think it’s just really important for you to recognize other people and not just yourself,” Roman said.

On Dec. 10, she arrived at Westlake feeling excited but shocked that her family would finally meet Lopez.

“For me, as a parent, it’s very important to hold a relationship with her. I want him to realize it’s OK for him to be the way he is and to love himself and to realize there are people out there who care about him, Claudia being one of them.”

Lopez learned that Jacob has been diagnosed with Tetralogy of Fallot, a rare condition that causes oxygen-poor blood to flow from the heart. Jacob has already undergone two open heart surgeries and is scheduled for another come January.

This was the first time anyone had ever gone to such great lengths to recognize her work, and she guessed that it would probably be the last.

“This is quite extraordinary. As nurses, in general, we do save lives all the time. This is not the first either mom or baby I saved and it will not be the last after that,” Lopez said.

“I’m always proud to say that I am a nurse.

I’m not ‘just a nurse;’ sometimes people tell me that. I’m not ‘just a nurse;’ I am a nurse and I’m very proud.”

Now a mother of two, Lopez has come a long way from when she was a high school senior, unsure of her future. She credits her time at Proviso East for teaching her a strong work ethic that prepared her to become a nurse.

“Reach for something because I feel that everybody nowadays needs to have that background,” she said. “Stay in school, focus on school. You could always have fun later, but you need to make time for your education.”
