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 />

1434 Waukegan Road (Carillon Square) Glenview<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 />

ShelfGenie offers an<br />

extensive line of custombuilt,<br />

Glide-Out shelves<br />

for all areas of your home.<br />

Out shelves for your<br />

bathroom pantry, kitchen,<br />

any other room, ShelfGenie<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 />

900 Skokie Blvd Suite 113<br />

Northbrook, IL 60062<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 />

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 />

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 />

no monthly maintenance<br />

fees, a minimum account<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 />

Medicare and Most Insurance Accepted<br />

775 N. Bank Lane, #104, Lake Forest • WellnessSolutionsPT.com • 847-295-1241<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 />
