HOST: SHIRLEY W. MITCHELL, National Author/Writer/Columnist/Speaker
GUEST: DR. MARION SOMERS, Ph.D., Founder & Chairman of Elder Health Resources of America, Inc.
TOPIC: ELDER CARE INSIDE AMERICA
EPISODE DESCRIPTION: This week Host Shirley W. Mitchell will be joined by her Guest Dr. Marion Somers, Ph.D., Founder & Chairman of Elder Health Resources of America, Inc., as they discuss "Elder Care Inside America" with... Dealing with Communication Skills, Housing Pros & Cons, Senior & Elderly Lifestyles, and Elder Care Made Easier.
GUEST: Dr. Marion Somers, Ph.D., is the Founder & Chairman of Elder Health Resources of America (EHRA), a New York City-based corporation that was founded in 2005 to meet the increasing demand for elder care products and services nationwide. Our company’s mission is simple: we provide practical advice, products, and solutions for the millions of people who care for an elderly loved one. After working in elder care for over three decades, Doctor Marion founded EHRA with the goal of sharing her expert, unbiased knowledge with the millions of Baby Boomer caregivers who are anxiously seeking help and guidance. Spend time with Dr. Marion and you will quickly realize that her motives are pure and powerful, and her experience is extensive and valuable.
During the past three decades, Dr. Marion Somers, Ph.D., has provided care for more than 2,000 elderly clients while she owned and operated a thriving Geriatric Care Management practice. It is now Doctor Marion's goal to help caregivers everywhere by providing valuable insights and information in her book and on this web site. While others might avoid elder care issues at every turn, Doctor Marion has made caring for the elderly her life's work. She loves her work and it shows. Doctor Marion doesn't focus on the grey hair or wrinkles of the elderly. Instead, she's inspired by the beauty of their life experience. "If an individual has lived to be 90 years old, he must have some real skills and smarts to get his needs met in life. It's vital we tap into the wisdom, strength, and life strategies of the elderly before they pass on."
Dr. Marion knows that caregivers feel scared, angry, guilty, frustrated, overworked, and underappreciated, but she is here to hold their hand through these demanding times. She passes on her knowledge and practical advice in a way that all caregivers can understand. "There are many common issues that caregivers face when dealing with the elderly. The language or the culture may be different, the values or the color of skin may be different, but many issues are universal, and it's my goal to make a positive impact," says Dr. Marion.
Dr. Marion is a featured columnist for RetirementHomes.com, a Towne Council member on BoomerTowne.com, and she enjoys an extensive partnership with AGIS.com, the web's leading elder care information portal. She has appeared on The TODAY Show, ABC News Now, Good Morning America Now, The NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams, National Public Radio, Retirement Living TV, and dozens of local morning news shows. Her public service announcement "Doctor Marion Minute" elder care program currently airs on more than 300 radio outlets coast-to-coast. She has been quoted on elder care issues by the Associated Press, The New York Times, USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, Newsweek, Parade magazine, Prevention magazine, Woman's World, The Baltimore Sun, Newsday, CNN.com, MSN.com, and Bankrate.com among many others.
Caregivers often find themselves caring for or overseeing the care of an older relative or spouse even though they may be ill-equipped to do so. Their interest in senior lifestyle and elder care issues grows exponentially overnight. Many struggle to find resources to help manage their loved ones’ care since there are few user-friendly elder care resources available. Dr. Marion now fills that void. She is quickly becoming the leading and most trusted resource for elder care products and services. Dr. Marion knows that caregivers would like to have a community where they can share their elder care experiences and stories. It is her hope that DoctorMarion.com will become just such a community via monitored message boards and chat rooms where caregivers from all walks of life can help each other manage their elder care challenge.
Dr. Marion is creating an easy-to-use planner to help caregivers organize the wide variety of information that is needed to facilitate the care of an elderly loved one. Caregivers will be able to access, input, and track the many details required such as contact information, medical information, DNR information, and any new developments with their elder’s health. From tracking medical information and arranging daily schedules to organizing critical legal papers and determining financial details, the planning software will make elder care easier each step of the way. The program will have a fully printable version so caregivers can handoff any part of it to relatives, doctors, and lawyers in order to streamline the complicated and challenging caregiving process.
EHRA also offers a low-cost, comprehensive way to address corporate America's elder care needs - "Dr. Marion's Human Resources Seminar" is a one-stop elder care resource.

HOST: SHIRLEY W. MITCHELL, National Author/Writer/Columnist/Speaker
GUEST: GLENN A. FENSTER, Owner of Destiny Maker
TOPIC: ACE THE RACE OF LIFE 2
EPISODE DESCRIPTION: This week Host Shirley W. Mitchell will be joined by her "Guest" Glenn A. Fenster of Destiny Maker - Helping Children with Epilepsy, as they discuss "Ace the Race of Life 2 " with... A Man's UnSelfish Journey to help Epilepsy and Destiny Maker.
GUEST: On April 28th, 2008 Glenn A. Fenster of Destiny Maker - Helping Kids with Epilepsy will embark on a 8,100 mile bicycle journey from Denver, Colorado to Miami, Florida (the Long Way). Denver, Phoenix, LA, SF, Seattle, Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto, NY, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Orlando, Miami... for his son Nyle, and for the thousands of others who suffer from Epilepsy - young and older alike. His inspiration and reason for this ambitious undertaking is his 14 year-old son, Nyle. Glenn is riding to show his son that no matter what the disability, everyone has the capacity to reach for their dreams. He does not ride just for his son, but for other kids and adults living with epilepsy. Sports have always been a part of Glenn Fenster's Life - with baseball playing on traveling teams; competing in minor league baseball against future MLB players. He even had a Try-Out for the Florida Marlins. Moving to South Florida in 1983, Glenn started playing tennis seriously in 1989, and 3 months later, was teaching tennis. He continues to this day 19 years later. He has worked with, played against, players from all over the world. Glenn started cycling in 2003 and has not driven a car since. His son Nyle, at age 2, was diagnosed with Epilepsy. Since then, he has had hundreds of seizures. He has them every day, every night. Nyle is now 14 years old. Glenn started writing when he was 17, and 22 years later published his first book "Feelings and Promises" - a collection of poetry. "Feelings and Promises - Vol 2" followed 3 years later, and he is currently working on Vol. 3. Five years ago on the tennis court Nyle went for a shot and a seizure occurred. He fell to the ground hard. By the time I got to him running as fast as I could the seizure had ended. I gave out my hand to help him up. He refused any help. I asked him, "How do you keep getting up"? He answered, "Dad, I've never seen you stay down." I decided right there I would do something that would raise the awareness of all who suffer from seizures, like the courage my son shows".... Days later I had a plan. I decided to bike from Seattle to Miami (47 days) 4036 miles completed in 2006. In 2007 I biked (65 days) 6200 miles from Alaska to Miami. This year I will bike 8100 miles. It is my goal by 2010 to have raised $250,000. I want to send children like my son to Epilepsy supported summer camps through out America and Canada. I want to break down the walls of stigma associated with Epilepsy. I do this to show everyone that no matter what disability of the mind or body, anything can be accomplished. That my son is like you and I. Epilepsy is what he has, Not who he is. Glenn's Schedule !
