Millions of men and women in the United States live with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Every day, individuals struggle with impairment in functions most of us take for granted, and they often find themselves separated from involvement in a world that doesn’t know how to respond to their needs – a world that either doesn’t notice or chooses to ignore their presence. The history of society’s treatment of men and women with disabilities has been filled with personal tragedy, ranging from the damaging assumption that they are capable of so little, so they should be allowed to do little, to the unspoken fearfulness that has led to efforts to isolate or harm those who could not defend themselves. Many still endure physical and verbal abuse, extreme neglect, and ridicule. Even more are left without opportunities to truly live, thrive, and find purpose in their lives because it is assumed that they are incapable of productive work, meaningful relationships, and a fulfilling life.

Footnotes from Felts

In the 14 years that Mary Ellenburg has worked for Felts Shoes, she’s seen the same phenomenon every August. The little store, tucked into its cozy corner in the Ne-Mar Center, bursts to life with activity. If there were brightly colored lights in the area, one might think it was the holiday season. But it is only August – and area kids are going back to school and making their annual trek to Felts Shoes to get prepared for another lap on their relay to adulthood.

Getting Real about Real Estate

Fred Keas has been a real estate broker for over 38 years – quite a feat for an industry often associated with a high agent turnover rate. According to Keas, many people do not stay in the field long-term simply because it is not a career for everyone. “Many people go into real estate thinking it is really easy and they’ll make a ton of money immediately. Agents certainly have potential for good income; however, an agent must be highly self-disciplined, with complete control over their time. They also need to have a reserve of finances, as all sales are straight commission.”

The Answer to Your Illness Is Found in Wellness

You are not destined to become a victim of chronic disease! This is one of the guiding principles of the Functional Medical Institute (FMI), where your answer to health and wellness begins. Under the leadership of Dr. Michele Neil-Sherwood (known as Dr. Michele), Internal Medicine/Sports Medicine Physician, and Naturopathic Dr. Mark Sherwood (known as Dr. Mark), one can expect a unique experience of listening, care, and compassion with an unwavering commitment to provide the finest opportunity for total healing. The foundation of FMI rests in a four-pronged approach (known as the ‘4E’ philosophy). The ‘4’ stands for the four elements of a person – physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual. The ‘E’ stands for “EVER.” Dr. Michele asserts, “We want each person to be well in each of these interdependent areas. When a person experiences wellness as a whole, they experience PEACE, rather than experiencing DIS-EASE.”

Project Back-to-School Runway

In a blog post by Sarah Edsall, who works with the communications team for Oklahoma Baptist Homes for Children (OBHC), and who has developed close relationships with multiple children from the organization’s four campuses, Sarah relates what she’s learned from her experience: “Every child who comes to live at OBHC brings with them their own individual personality, distinctive care needs and a unique background story. As different as they are from one another, every child I’ve met has something in common. They are good – no, GREAT – kids who are full of potential and hope for their futures. For most children in our care, moving to OBHC was not out of consequence for their own actions, but rather a crisis in their family.”

Pilates During Pregnancy

Beth West attended Pilates classes at Strength of Mind & Body for four years before she became pregnant with her first child. Rather than use it as an excuse to be lazy, Beth continued attending classes throughout her pregnancy and since giving birth to her son, Abraham, seven months ago. “Pilates helped me in so many ways before and after he was born. My job requires me to sit at a desk most of the day, and doing Pilates twice a week helped me stay active and gain a healthy amount of weight during pregnancy,” says Beth. “I also believe it helped prepare me physically and mentally for labor.”

Accessorize for Back to School

Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright once said: “The difference between humans and other mammals is that we know how to accessorize.” While this was meant as a humorous remark, there is a lot of truth in it.

For those in this group, The District on Main in Claremore will be introducing and expanding several popular lines of accessories and clothing this fall, just in time for back to school. When asked which new addition was her favorite, owner Cari Bohannan says, “It’s hard to choose just one favorite! I’m so excited about all the new and expanded products for this season.”
