Life in the kitchen: simplified and organized<br />
How ShelfGenie<br />
saved one kitchen<br />
and can save yours<br />
Amanda Stoll, 22CMBoost<br />
Fed up with unloading<br />
cabinets and struggling<br />
to reach cookware cornered<br />
on shelves, Priscilla<br />
needed a magician — or a<br />
genie.<br />
ShelfGenie simple custom<br />
kitchen-organization<br />
system solved Priscilla’s<br />
kitchen woes.<br />
Priscilla contacted<br />
ShelfGenie for a complimentary<br />
in-home design<br />
consultation, and the session<br />
couldn’t have gone<br />
better, she said, adding that<br />
she was impressed the designer<br />
listened and understood<br />
her frustration and<br />
needs and was ready with<br />
suggestions specific to her<br />
space.<br />
ShelfGenie’s custommade<br />
Glide-outs were<br />
measured and built to fit<br />
into her existing cabinets<br />
and pantries without requiring<br />
any remodeling.<br />
The installation went<br />
extremely well.<br />
“He was clean, he was<br />
efficient [and] he cleaned<br />
up after the job was done,”<br />
Priscilla said about Chris,<br />
who installed her shelves<br />
in less than one day.<br />
After organizing her<br />
newly revamped kitchen<br />
spaces, Priscilla embraced<br />
an entirely different and<br />
simpler experience in her<br />
kitchen. Everything she<br />
needs is now right at her<br />
fingertips and doesn’t require<br />
her getting on her<br />
knees or require her to<br />
wrestle things from the<br />
back.<br />
“In one section where<br />
my pots and pans were, I<br />
used to have to take just<br />
about the whole stack of<br />
pans out to get to the one<br />
that’s in the middle or that<br />
one that’s at the bottom,<br />
and the pans were very<br />
heavy,” she said. “So now<br />
I have two drawers: one is<br />
pots, and the other is pans.<br />
“It has just simplified<br />
my life.”<br />
Before the ShelfGenie<br />
drawers were installed,<br />
Priscilla was working with<br />
wire shelving in her pantries,<br />
while smaller items,<br />
such as zip-top baggies<br />
and plastic wrap, were<br />
stored in less-than-ideal<br />
cardboard boxes.<br />
Housing canned goods<br />
in a more convenient space<br />
is just one of many examples<br />
of how ShelfGenie<br />
“THE INTERNET DOESN’T CALL YOU BACK”<br />
Contact Information:<br />

847-595-1444<br />
has improved the functionality<br />
of Priscilla’s kitchen.<br />
It has trimmed her time<br />
prepping and organizing<br />
so she can get back to what<br />
she enjoys most: cooking<br />
and spending time in the<br />
kitchen with her family.<br />
The ShelfGenie Glideouts<br />
have given her back<br />
a lot of space she lost to<br />
inefficiency, so now even<br />
more items, such as water<br />
bottles and drinks that<br />
were stored in the basement,<br />
can be stored in the<br />
kitchen where they belong.<br />
With the amount of time<br />
spent Priscilla spends with<br />
her family in the kitchen,<br />
she said the drawers are<br />
“worth their weight in<br />
gold.”<br />
“I’m just thrilled with<br />
them. I’m just thrilled,”<br />
she said. “I feel organized.<br />
I can see things, and I can<br />
get at things. It’s just a<br />
real, real good day every<br />
day. Every day is a good<br />
day in my kitchen. It’s not<br />
frustrating anymore.”<br />

Out shelves for your<br />

Maintaining healthy hair with Pascal pour Elle<br />
Now that the winter months are approaching,<br />
the days are starting to get<br />
cooler, it’s time to think about the ways<br />
you can protect your hair from winter<br />
damage. Here are a few tips from us at<br />
Pascal pour Elle to help you maintain<br />
healthy, beautiful hair this upcoming season.<br />
During the winter months, it’s a great<br />
idea to treat your hair once a week to a<br />
deep conditioning regimen. This will help<br />
Dr. Gregg Gerstin<br />
DOCTOR OF CHIROPRACTIC<br />
847-564-9500<br />

replenish the moisture which tends to get<br />
depleted from things such as dry heat in<br />
your home and cold winter air. We recommend<br />
Kerastase Fusion Treatments,<br />
which are done right here in the salon.<br />
The treatment is customized for your specific<br />
hair needs. A great at home treatment<br />
we recommend would be Masquintense<br />
by Kerastase. There is one for fine hair,<br />
or thick hair. Work through your wet hair<br />
from root to ends leaving it on your hair<br />
Solve height loss<br />
naturally!<br />
for 10-20 minutes and rinse thoroughly.<br />
Static can also become a real problem<br />
when the weather conditions are cold and<br />
dry. A great way to combat static is to use<br />
a good heat styling product before you<br />
blowdry your hair. Protect Me, by Pascal<br />
Paris, is not only a priming heat protector,<br />
it also is a anti-humidity spray. We also<br />
find that minimizing your hair-washing to<br />
two to three times per week in the winter<br />
months, will prevent your hair from<br />
drying out too much. Making sure your<br />
hair is completely dry before leaving the<br />
house is also a must. The moisture in your<br />
hair combined with the cold air can add<br />
further damage to your hair by making it<br />
more brittle and dry.<br />
A regular trim is a great way to keep<br />
your hair healthy. A light dusting of the<br />
ends every four to six weeks will reduce<br />
the chance of drying, splitting ends. Bottom<br />

selfie.<br />

15 reasons to use in-home care for your loved ones<br />
What is widely viewed as the<br />
best and most viable delivery of<br />
health care in America? Infirmed<br />
(informed) and elderly individuals<br />
have been found to prefer<br />
home care by 90 percent over<br />
comparable institutional care.<br />
What are some of the reasons<br />
for in-home elderly care? This<br />
article counts the many ways –<br />
15 in fact – that it is far preferable<br />
– at least to seniors – over<br />
a nursing home or other kind of<br />
assisted living.<br />
1. Home care is delivered, as you<br />
would expect, at home. Dorothy<br />
said it best: “There’s no<br />
place like home.” Certainly,<br />
this is a statement that most<br />
people wholeheartedly embrace.<br />
There is nothing like<br />
the comfort and familiarity of<br />
being cared for in the comfort<br />
and security of “home sweet<br />
home.”<br />
2. In-home care helps keep families<br />
together. Compare this to<br />
taking an elderly person away<br />
from their loved ones. At no<br />
time is family more important<br />
than during times of illness.<br />
3. Elderly care helps seniors<br />
maintain their independence.<br />
Home care allows seniors to<br />
continue to live in the place<br />
they function best – their<br />
home.<br />
4. Home care prevents or puts<br />
off institutional life. Living<br />
in a long-term care facility is<br />
unfamiliar and can often be intimidating.<br />
Most people prefer<br />
postponing the inevitable as<br />
long as possible.<br />
5. Home care helps promote<br />
healing. Medical evidence<br />
shows that people recover<br />
more quickly at home.<br />
6. In-home elderly care is safer.<br />
It’s no secret that people<br />
pick up infections and other<br />
complications when they live<br />
amid a chronically ill population<br />
(such as in a hospital or<br />
long-term care facility). This<br />
is obviously not the case when<br />
cared for at home.<br />
7. Home care means personalized<br />
care. Care becomes a<br />
one-to-one proposition in your<br />
home. You get this nowhere<br />
else.<br />
8. Home care often gets the entire<br />
family involved in providing<br />
care. Immediate and extended<br />
family members often<br />
take an active role at different<br />
times of the day.<br />
9. Home care reduces the stress<br />
that often accompanies illness.<br />
Illness increases anxiety and<br />
stress, but it’s not nearly as<br />
great when care is practiced in<br />
the home.<br />
10. Home care is the most effective<br />
form of health care delivered<br />
in terms of customer<br />
satisfaction. It all comes back<br />
to the fact that people prefer to<br />
be at home.<br />
11. Home care is delivered by a<br />
special group of people. People<br />
don’t work in the home<br />
care industry for the money.<br />
They do it for the emotional<br />
satisfaction of helping others<br />
and for making a difference in<br />
the life of another.<br />
12. Home care extends life.<br />
Studies by nursing schools<br />
and government agencies have<br />
found that home care extends<br />
life. Visits by home care personnel<br />
often provide spiritual<br />
as well as medical support.<br />
13. Home care improves one’s<br />
quality of life. For most people,<br />
the quality of their life is<br />
far better at home than anywhere<br />
else.<br />
14. Home care is less expensive<br />
than other forms of care. The<br />
cost of home care is always<br />
less expensive than hospitalization<br />
and almost always<br />
more affordable than nursing<br />
home or assisted living care,<br />
which can cost $90,000 a year<br />
or more.<br />
15. Technology will make home<br />
care even more desirable in<br />
the future. Medical and technological<br />
advances will soon<br />
make it possible to diagnose,<br />
monitor and treat illness at a<br />
distance. This will help make<br />
home care even more of a preferred<br />
option.<br />

Ask Mary Ann: When is the<br />
right time to move into a<br />
Memory Care Community?<br />
Mary Ann, I have been<br />
caring for my mother, who<br />
has dementia, in my home.<br />
How can I know when the<br />
right time comes to move<br />
her into a memory care<br />
community?<br />
Most of us caring for<br />
our loved one come from<br />
a subjective place. I have<br />
found that the decision is<br />
easier to make if you step<br />
back and look at it more<br />
objectively.<br />
We want to keep the<br />
promises we have made<br />
to care for our loved ones.<br />
Sometimes that includes<br />
keeping them at home.<br />
However, it has been proven<br />
that when one is diagnosed<br />
with this disease,<br />
they have a better experience<br />
of life in a community<br />
where others are experiencing<br />
the same emotions,<br />
feelings and behaviors.<br />
In both my personal and<br />
professional experience, I<br />
have found that, surprisingly<br />
your loved one will<br />
have an easier time adjusting<br />
to what he or she are<br />
experiencing because they<br />
will be able to make new<br />
friends and it will bring<br />
care<br />

them to an emotional comfort<br />
level that they would<br />
not experience if they were<br />
to stay in their homes.<br />
Family members don’t<br />
realize that being in their<br />
homes won’t give them<br />
the opportunity for the social<br />
interaction, exercise,<br />
reminiscing or connecting<br />
to past interests.<br />
The other opportunity<br />
that coming into a community<br />
can give them is the<br />
many types of engagement<br />
that they will be involved<br />
in, which is extremely<br />
important to slow down<br />
the process of the disease.<br />
Lives change for those on<br />
this journey when in the<br />

time to choose to move<br />

treat NorthShore patients.<br />
From the latest nonsurgical and minimally<br />
invasive treatments to computerand<br />
robot-assisted surgery, NorthShore<br />
explores every option for each patient.<br />
The team works with patients to precisely<br />
diagnose the source of pain and provide<br />
the optimal treatment plan for long-term<br />
recovery.<br />
“We’re pioneering advanced techniques<br />
at NorthShore,” says Dr. Jason Koh, Director<br />
of the NorthShore Orthopaedic Institute<br />
and an internationally recognized<br />
sports medicine expert in knee, shoulder<br />
and elbow reconstruction. “One exciting<br />
thing we’re doing right now is regenerating<br />
patients’ own cartilage to repair their<br />
damaged knees.”<br />
Specialists are also using 3D printing<br />
to create precise anatomical models<br />
that perfectly replicate a patient’s unique<br />
anatomy. This enables surgeons to plan<br />
complex surgeries more precisely. Joint<br />
replacement is another important area of<br />
expertise. People are living longer today<br />
and looking forward to remaining active<br />
and physically fit as they age. But joint<br />
damage can slow them down, whether it<br />
is caused by arthritis, injury or years of<br />
wear and tear. NorthShore’s orthopaedic<br />
surgeons are leaders in total hip and knee<br />
replacement, utilizing the latest in arthritis<br />
treatment, advanced surgical technology<br />
and care options.<br />
Recovery is a vital part of the post-surgery<br />
process. Specialists precisely tailor<br />
pain management to each patient’s needs.<br />
Patients get moving the first day to ensure<br />
quicker, long-term recovery.<br />

Do you have enough savings for<br />
planned and unplanned expenses?<br />
StatePoint Media<br />
Nearly half of consumers have encountered<br />
an emergency expense in the past<br />
year, but when it comes to financially<br />
preparing for the unexpected, many fall<br />
short, according to CIT Bank’s new Summer<br />
Savings Survey conducted by The<br />
Harris Poll. The survey also found that<br />
many consumers don’t have the savings<br />
to afford the planned expense of the vacations<br />
they take.<br />
“More than one in four consumers don’t<br />
save anything for unexpected events such as<br />
a home repair or health expense,” said Ravi<br />
Kumar, head of Internet Banking for CIT<br />
Bank. “Over another quarter report saving<br />
less than 5 percent of their monthly household<br />
income for emergencies.”<br />

Life insurance: What everyone needs to know<br />
Statepoint Media<br />
No matter if you’re<br />
single or married, in your<br />
twenties or your forties, a<br />
parent or not, life insurance<br />
coverage is important<br />
in ways you may not<br />
realize, and costs less than<br />
you’d expect. And experts<br />
now stress that employersponsored<br />
coverage typically<br />
isn’t sufficient to<br />
cover most people’s needs.<br />
“Living your best life<br />
comes with risks, but<br />
don’t let uncertainty deter<br />
you from buying a house,<br />
traveling or starting a<br />
business,” said Sean Scaturro,<br />
director of Life and<br />
Health Insurance Advice<br />
at USAA. “Take the necessary<br />
steps to protect loved<br />
ones from financial burden<br />
in the event of tragedy.”<br />
Whether the money is<br />
used to replace your income,<br />
pay debts, pay for<br />
education or burial expenses,<br />
life insurance affords<br />
financial safety to<br />
loved ones.<br />
Start Young<br />
The 2018 Insurance Barometer<br />
Study published by<br />
Life Happens and LIMRA<br />
indicates that 44 percent of<br />
millennials overestimate<br />
the cost of life insurance by<br />
five times the actual amount<br />
and 42 percent believe they<br />
wouldn’t qualify. But, in<br />
reality, premiums are typically<br />
lowest when you’re<br />
younger, so it’s a smart decision<br />
to get some coverage,<br />
and reevaluate as life changes.<br />
For many young adults,<br />
student loans and housing<br />
costs sit atop the list of financial<br />
priorities. Without<br />
life insurance, the responsibility<br />
for these debts could<br />
fall to family members.<br />
Mind the Gap<br />
Just because you signed<br />
up for life insurance coverage<br />
through your employer<br />
doesn’t mean you’re adequately<br />
covered. Scaturro<br />
cites LIMRA data<br />
that shows that American<br />
households currently have<br />
a $200,000 life insurance<br />
needs gap. “If 60 percent<br />
of people have life insurance<br />
and 33 percent of<br />
those have group life insurance<br />
only, one in five<br />
people only have group<br />
coverage, which usually<br />
doesn’t provide enough,”<br />
he said.<br />
Most employer-sponsored<br />
coverage provides<br />
either a set death benefit,<br />
such as $50,000, or a multiple<br />
of your base income,<br />
and many plans aren’t portable.<br />
That means, without<br />
a separate individual policy,<br />
it could be costly or too<br />
late to get coverage if you<br />
leave your job.<br />
So, sign up for your employer’s<br />
low-cost or free<br />
life insurance, but don’t<br />
stop there. USAA believes<br />
you need enough life insurance<br />
to replace five<br />
years of your income, plus<br />
cover all debts. To determine<br />
how much coverage<br />
you need, take advantage<br />
of a free online calculator,<br />
like the one provided by<br />
USAA at USAA.com/life.<br />
Protect Your Family<br />
Families are especially<br />
vulnerable following the<br />
death of a primary wage<br />
earner. In fact, 35 percent<br />
of households would feel<br />
the financial impact within<br />
a month, according to research<br />
from LIMRA. That<br />
figure rises to nearly 50<br />
percent at six months.<br />
Experts say that it’s important<br />
to review your life<br />
insurance needs, discuss<br />
them with your loved ones,<br />
speak to a financial professional<br />
and take action.<br />

Oral-systemic<br />
medicine: The new<br />
standard in healthcare<br />
Research suggests that<br />
as many as three out of<br />
four Americans show<br />
signs of mild periodontal<br />
disease while 30 percent<br />
show signs of chronic<br />
periodontitis. So, why are<br />
these findings so shocking?<br />
Studies point to the<br />
damaging triggers behind<br />
these very serious infections<br />
as being the same as<br />
those behind cardiovascular<br />
disease, stroke, diabetes,<br />
rheumatoid arthritis<br />
and even Alzheimer’s. In<br />
fact, evidence indicates<br />
that up to 50 percent of<br />
heart attacks are triggered<br />
by oral pathogens, and<br />
more than six oral bacteria<br />
appear to be linked to Alzheimer’s.<br />
“Understanding the<br />
science behind the emergence<br />
of oral and overall<br />
systemic health has quickly<br />
become mainstream in<br />
dentistry,” said Dr. Laniel<br />
Razdolsky, of Lake Forest<br />
Dental Associates. “Many<br />
health disciplines are coming<br />
together for developmental<br />
research and study<br />
to see just how great the<br />
impacts are.”<br />
As a result, oral pathogens<br />
are being explored<br />
as the potential origin for<br />
many serious health issues<br />
including pulmonary<br />
infection and even pneumonia.<br />
What’s more, periodontal<br />
disease is now being<br />
studied as a complex<br />
oral and systemic disease<br />
that carries as big a risk<br />
as high blood pressure for<br />
strokes. Periodontal disease<br />
can even be viewed as<br />
a marker of subclinical organ<br />
damage. If addressed<br />
by coordinated teams of<br />
both dental and medical<br />
professionals, however,<br />
we can slow or even reverse<br />
the progression of<br />
such diseases.<br />
“In some cases, oral<br />
health doesn’t just have direct<br />
implications on one’s<br />
systemic health, it further<br />
impacts quality of life as<br />
we age,” Razdolsky said.<br />
“What we do and, more<br />
importantly, what we don’t<br />
do can have far reaching<br />
consequences.”<br />
To that end, Lake Forest<br />
Dental Associates screens<br />
diabetic patients who may<br />
be at a higher risk for infections<br />
such as gingivitis.<br />
Left untreated, this infection<br />
can lead to periodontitis,<br />
putting the diabetic patient<br />
at an even higher risk<br />
for heart-related issues.<br />
Conversely, research suggests<br />
that good periodontal<br />
hygiene may a have positive<br />
impact on blood sugar<br />
levels.<br />
“While there are many<br />
ongoing studies to help us<br />
better understand the correlation<br />
between oral and<br />
systemic health, we can be<br />
assured there is a new dental<br />
and medical standard<br />
being developed regarding<br />
patient care,” Razdolsky<br />
said. “At our office, we<br />
really get to know our patient’s<br />
full medical history<br />
and encourage them to<br />
take an active part in their<br />
long-term health.”<br />

How are consumers<br />

list of resources Americans<br />
rely on for financial<br />

As for the planned<br />

one in three<br />
(29 percent) report taking<br />
extreme actions to pay<br />
their way, including taking<br />
out a bank loan, going<br />

money or maxing out a<br />

To plan the monthly<br />
amount that you’ll need<br />
to save for peace of mind,<br />
utilize free resources, such<br />
as CIT Bank’s online calculators<br />
at www.bankoncit.com/calculators.<br />
Then,<br />
consider looking for an account<br />
that will make your<br />
savings work harder and<br />
offer some flexibility. With<br />
no monthly maintenance<br />
fees, a minimum account<br />
balance requirement, and<br />
transaction capabilities,<br />
consumers can save without<br />
sacrificing their earnings<br />
throughout the process.<br />
When it comes to happy<br />
occasions as well as the<br />
unexpected, being prepared<br />
can safeguard you<br />
against zeroing out your<br />
account or going into debt.<br />

4 surprising insights into life with Parkinson’s Disease<br />
StatePoint Media<br />
Over 1 million Americans<br />
live with Parkinson’s<br />
disease, and while some<br />
symptoms are easier to see,<br />
there are a range of harderto-detect<br />
non-movement<br />
symptoms that can have an<br />
impact on daily life.<br />
Recently, the Parkinson<br />
& Movement Disorder<br />
Alliance, a non-profit organization<br />
offering programming<br />
for those in the<br />
Parkinson’s disease community,<br />
surveyed over 650<br />
people with Parkinson’s<br />
as well as care partners<br />
to understand how nonmovement<br />
symptoms impact<br />
their lives and quality<br />
of life.<br />

The results:<br />
1. Parkinson’s disease affects<br />
more than motor<br />
function. Every person<br />
with Parkinson’s disease<br />
may experience different<br />
symptoms, both motor<br />
and non-movement<br />
related.<br />
In fact, nearly all (90<br />
percent) of survey respondents<br />
experienced<br />
non-movement symptoms,<br />
such as:<br />
• Sleep problems (84 percent)<br />
• Cognitive challenges (75<br />
percent)<br />
• Anxiety (65 percent)<br />
• Depression (55 percent)<br />
• Hallucinations (41 percent)<br />
• Delusions (24 percent)<br />
2. Non-movement symptoms<br />
can be more challenging<br />
than motor<br />
symptoms. Of those<br />
who experienced or reported,<br />
non-movement<br />
symptoms, 84 percent<br />
felt that they have a<br />
negative impact on quality<br />
of life, and about half<br />
rated them as more challenging<br />
or much more<br />
challenging to live with<br />
than movement symptoms.<br />
3. Daily living is impacted<br />
by hard-to-see<br />
symptoms. Parkinson’s<br />
disease changes how<br />
patients and their care<br />
partners think about the<br />
future and cope with<br />
day-to-day living.<br />
In fact, non-movement<br />
symptoms negatively<br />
impacted the ability<br />
to:<br />
• Sleep (84 percent)<br />
• Plan for future events<br />
(76 percent)<br />
• Socialize (71 percent)<br />
• Make plans with family<br />
and friends (70 percent)<br />
• Be intimate with their<br />
partner (68 percent)<br />
• Complete household<br />
chores (68 percent)<br />
• Run errands (67 percent)<br />
When people with<br />
Parkinson’s experience<br />
non-movement symptoms,<br />
care partners are<br />
impacted, too. In fact,<br />
psychosis symptoms in<br />
patients with Parkinson’s<br />
are a strong predictor of<br />
increased care partner<br />
burden, and those with<br />
hallucinations have a<br />
2.5-fold greater risk for<br />
nursing home admission.<br />
4. Reporting symptoms is<br />
crucial. It’s important<br />
to report all symptoms<br />
to a doctor, as there are<br />
many different treatment<br />
options.<br />

Vi at The Glen: An unexpected<br />
impression of senior living<br />
There are a lot of misconceptions<br />
about retirement<br />
communities among<br />
seniors. One of the most<br />
common, and coincidentally<br />
most easily debunked,<br />
is that moving to<br />
a senior living community<br />
means giving up the<br />
independence you enjoy<br />
in a single-family home.<br />
It’s simply not true. If you<br />
want proof, ask any resident<br />
of Vi at The Glen.<br />
Somewhere in the<br />
Neighborhood of Perfect<br />
Vi at The Glen is situated<br />
in Glenview and combines<br />
all the warmth of an<br />
active, tight-knit neighborhood<br />
with all the benefits<br />
of a Life Plan Community.<br />
In addition to gorgeous<br />
apartments, Vi at The<br />
Glen offers private villa<br />
homes with the space and<br />
independence of a singlefamily<br />
residence, without<br />
responsibilities like maintenance<br />
or upkeep.<br />
The 26-acre private<br />
community also has access<br />
to exceptional dining,<br />
housekeeping and amenities<br />
like an on-site fitness<br />
center, salon and salt-filtered<br />
pool.<br />
Vi at The Glen residents<br />
Ray and Joan Racelis<br />
looked at six Life Plan<br />
Communities in three<br />
states, but from the moment<br />
they found their villa<br />
at Vi at The Glen, they<br />
knew they were home.<br />
“We were attracted to<br />
the size,” Ray said. “Our<br />
villa has a two-car garage,<br />
a spare bedroom for<br />
guests, and we still have<br />
a den, which was really<br />
important for us—it’s our<br />
communication center!”<br />
Loved ones will find it<br />
accommodating, too<br />
The ample space of villa<br />
floor plans at Vi at The<br />
Glen provides residents<br />
another very key benefit:<br />
the ability to comfortably<br />
host family and friends.<br />
“Residents who have<br />
moved into the villas<br />
told us they enjoy having<br />
the space of a singlefamily<br />
home to entertain<br />
their families,” said Ellen<br />
Nemirow, move-in manager<br />
at Vi at The Glen.<br />
And the Racelises take<br />
full advantage of the<br />
space. “We just hosted a<br />
party for the family on<br />
Father’s Day,” Joan says.<br />
“And everyone likes to<br />
come for Sunday brunches<br />
at the Vi.”<br />
The first stress-free,<br />
customizable move of your<br />
life<br />
At Vi at The Glen, residents<br />
are given the freedom<br />
to customize the finishes<br />
and spaces of their<br />
residences before they<br />
move in, with the help<br />
of the community’s Design<br />
Center. “We added a<br />
patio with manufactured<br />
bluestone and a barbecue<br />
area,” said Ray. “They<br />
landscaped it beautifully!<br />
We’re quite happy with it.”<br />
As for the move-in process<br />
itself, Vi has services<br />
to help you downsize,<br />
pack, unpack, arrange for<br />
shipping and even organize<br />
an estate sale. “We literally<br />
sat back and watched people<br />
packing and unpacking<br />
our things,” Ray said. “For<br />
older people like us, that’s<br />
a big relief.<br />
Home is where The Glen is<br />
Just ask the Racelises. Vi<br />
at The Glen offers an ideal<br />
balance of urban and suburban<br />
life, with easy access<br />
to downtown Chicago and<br />
all of its social and cultural<br />
attractions. “The villa is<br />
absolutely perfect for us,”<br />
Joan said. “Now that the<br />
move is behind us, we’re<br />
going to go to plays, use<br />
the pool and fitness center,<br />
and do things with our new<br />
friends and neighbors.”<br />

<strong>Active</strong> <strong>Aging</strong> Expo returns at ‘exciting’ new location<br />
Eric DeGrechie, Managing Editor<br />
In real estate, it is often stated that location<br />
is everything.<br />
22nd Century Media also believes in<br />
this mantra for its popular expos. This<br />
year, the company’s annual <strong>Active</strong> <strong>Aging</strong><br />
— An Expo for Ages 50+ finds a new<br />
home at Northbrook Court.<br />
“We held our Camp Expo there in February<br />
and our vendors are excited about<br />
the expo at a new location that is centrally<br />
located in the North Shore,” said Heather<br />
Warthen, chief operating officer at 22nd<br />
Century Media.<br />
The expo is set for 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday,<br />
Oct. 13, near the lower level of Macy’s.<br />
The first 200 attendees will receive<br />
a tote bag.<br />
In addition to more than 40 vendors, there<br />
will be health screenings available for all in<br />
attendance, free admission and parking.<br />
“The expo is a great way to find new<br />
businesses that you don’t know existed.<br />
Call 708-236-5444 or visit:<br />
CatholicCemeteriesChicago.org<br />
We have a variety of vendors that focus<br />
on the aging population,” Warthen said.<br />
“This expo is great for not only senior<br />
citizens, but children of senior citizens to<br />
make sure their parents have all they need<br />
for the later stages in life.”<br />
