African American HistoryMakers go Back to School in Bedford Day of Service

“I was this little kid with a periodic table of the elements on my bedroom wall,” recalls retired NASA administrator and scientist Dr. Woodrow Whitlow, Jr. , “and then NASA started launching people into space and I said, I’m not going to be a chemist anymore, I’m going to go work for NASA.” This childhood dream propelled Whitlow into a stellar career in aerospace engineering, including more than three decades at NASA. He served as a research scientist as well as Director of the NASA John H. Glenn Research Center and Associate Administrator for Mission Support at NASA Headquarters.

This is the kind of story that students across the country will hear on Friday, September 25, 2015, when Dr. Whitlow will join former Cleveland Foundation executive Steven A. Minter, along with hundreds of HistoryMakers nationwide, for the 6th Annual Back to School With The HistoryMakers program. The theme of the day is “COMMIT.” HistoryMakers will return to classrooms to give their testimony of pursuing an education,

overcoming challenges on their path to success, and making a difference in their communities. Most importantly, they will encourage students to COMMIT to finishing their education.

Secretary of Education Arne Duncan is chairing the nationwide effort with the goal of having more than 400 black leaders go “back to school” in 67 cities and 32 states. The program puts HistoryMakers in direct contact with over 25,000 students in 200 schools across the nation, to inspire them with their life’s stories and to encourage youth to strive for excellence.

Last year, nonprofit executive Fannie Lee Brown attended Glendale Primary School in Bedford, Ohio and described the event as “an extremely powerful and unforgettable experience.” The HistoryMakers Founder and Executive Director, Julieanna Richardson, says “By bringing these living leaders into today’s educational system, we are raising awareness about the achievements of the accomplished

African Americans in local communities and bringing these leaders into schools to see things firsthand, while providing important role models for today’s youth.”

Richardson is encouraging educators everywhere to use The HistoryMakers’ Digital Archive www.thehistorymakers.com/digital-archive to enrich their

students’ exposure to the contributions of African Americans across the globe. This year, schools participating in the event will receive a free one-year membership for the digital archive, which includes easy-to-access interviews with over 1,000 HistoryMakers.

Red Cross issues urgent call for most needed blood typesThe American Red Cross is facing

a looming shortage of the blood types most needed by patients and is calling on eligible donors with O negative, B negative and A negative blood to give now to prevent an emergency situation. Blood donation appointments can be quickly and easily scheduled by using the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting redcrossblood.org or calling 1-800-RED CROSS.

Overall blood donations in the Red Cross Northern Ohio Blood Services Region have been approximately 2,433 fewer per month in June and July this year than the previous 10 months of the year. When demand for the most needed types begins to outpace donations, the Red Cross alerts donors to help restock the shelves.

Type O negative is the universal blood type and can be transfused to patients with any blood type. Types B negative and A negative can be transfused to Rh positive or negative patients. Eligible donors are encouraged to donate double red cells – a process where two units of red cells are collected while most of the plasma and platelets are returned to the donor – where available.

“Summer blood shortages are not uncommon, but they can be prevented when generous volunteers roll up their sleeves to help save lives,” said Christy Peters, External Communications Manager for the Red Cross Northern Ohio Region. “Many donors have already given this summer. We’re now asking donors who haven’t donated, and those who are eligible again, to make an appointment to give now to help ensure blood products are available for patients.”

Platelets and type AB plasma also needed. Platelet donors and those with type AB blood are also continually needed to help ensure patients receive the lifesaving blood products they need. Platelets – a key clotting component of blood often needed by cancer patients, surgical patients and bone narrow recipients – must be transfused within five days of donation, so donations are constantly needed. Donors with type AB blood are urged to give blood or platelets to restock the plasma supply. Type AB donors have the universal plasma type, which can be given to patients of all blood types.

Individuals who donated blood earlier this summer may be eligible to donate again and help patients like an expectant mother at a Red Cross-supported hospital who is currently receiving nearly 100 units of blood products a week until she delivers. Her need alone could add up to 1,100 units.

The free Blood

Donor App – available in app stores by searching for American Red Cross or by texting BLOODAPP to 90999 – not only makes appointment scheduling easy, but donors can also access their digital donor card and be notified when their donation is distributed to a hospital. Donors can also visit redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) to make an appointment or for more information. All blood types are needed to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A blood donor card or

driver’s license or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age (16 with parental consent in some states), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

Free and Reduced Meals Information for 2015-2016 School YearThe Bedford City School District today

announced its 2015-2016 program year policy for free and reduced-price meals for students unable to pay the full price of meals or milk served under the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Program. Each school office and the central office has a copy of the policy, which may be reviewed by any interested party.

The Federal Income Eligibility Guidelines will be used for determining eligibility. Children from families whose annual income is at or below the Federal Guidelines are eligible for free and reduced price meals or free milk if the school participates in the Special Milk Program.

Application forms are being

distributed to all homes in a letter to parents or guardians. To apply for free and reduced-price benefits, households should fill out the application and return it to the school. Additional copies are available at the principal’s office in each school. A complete application is required. Households which currently receive Special Nutrition Assistance Program Benefits (SNAP, formally known as food stamps) or Ohio Works First (OWF) funds for a child must provide the child’s name, the SNAP or OWF case number and signature of an adult household member on the application. Households which do not receive SNAP or OWF funds must provide the names of all household members, the last four digits of the Social Security Number of the adult signing the

application or state “none” if the adult does not have a Social Security Number, the amount and source of income received by each household member, (state the monthly income) and the signature of an adult household member. If any of this information is missing, the school cannot process the application.

FREE HEALTH CARE: Families with children eligible for school meals may be eligible for FREE health care coverage through Medicaid and/or Ohio’s Healthy Start & Healthy Families programs. These programs include coverage for doctor visits, immunizations, physicals, prescriptions, dental, vision, mental health, substance abuse and more. Please call 1-800-324-8680 for more information or to request an application. Information

can also be found on the web at http://jfs.ohio.gov/ohp/consumers/familychild.stm. Anyone who has an Ohio Medicaid card is already receiving these services.

The information provided on the application is confidential and will be used only for the purpose of determining eligibility and may be verified at any time during the school year by school or other program official. To discourage the possibility of misrepresentation, the application forms contain a statement above the space for signature certifying that all information furnished is true and correct. Applications are being made in connection with the receipt of federal funds. Schools or other officials may check the information on the application at any time during the school year.

I love summer. Long warm days, breezy nights, vacations, kids out of school; summer is a fun time of year. Even this year’s every day rain is better than what we’ll get in January and February. But as we get into August, we have to start thinking about the things we need to do to get ready for fall and win-ter. School clothes, finishing out-door projects, and of course, our bi-yearly dental examination and teeth cleaning!

“What?” you say, “I can get my teeth checked any time”. Yeah, that may be true, but once fall hits, things get busy. School and work take over our lives again. Days get shorter. Weather gets colder. Gen-erally, we want to do less outside

of the house. That’s when we start putting things off for another day (week, month ...).

So if you haven’t done so recently, now is the time for your family to have your dental checkup and cleaning. And if we find any prob-lems that need to be addressed, we can address them before they get too big. And for those of you with insurance, don’t forget that

your yearly benefit expires at the end of the year, and if you don’t use it, you lose it. You’ve earned that benefit, don’t give it away by staying away! And don’t wait un-til December to do it; the schedule gets much tighter at that time of year.

Enjoy the rest of your summer and I look forward to seeing you soon.

Yours in good health, Dr. Mychael Davis

Address hernia pain early to avoid problems.

Rick Gemma, DO

If hernias are not repaired, they generally grow and become increasingly

A hernia is caused when a weakness or tear in the abdominal muscles allows contents of the abdomen (such as fatty tissue, intestines or the bowels) to protrude through the muscle tissue. Hernias usually occur in or around the groin, abdomen or navel, or near previous sites of abdominal surgery. The person will often feel a lump or bulge.

“Some hernias don’t cause symptoms,” says Rick Gemma, DO, a general surgeon at South Pointe Hospital. However, Dr. Gemma says to see your doctor as soon as possible if you experience any of these:

• Discomfort and pain• A noticeable protrusion in

the groin area or abdomen

• Pain while lifting• A dull aching sensation • A vague feeling of fullness

Hernia repairAccording to Dr. Gemma, surgery is the only effective

treatment for a hernia. Other treatments such as diet, exercise, trusses, belts, briefs, medications and vitamins are of little use.

It’s best to deal with a hernia early, rather than waiting for an emergency situation, because:

• The repair can be scheduled at a convenient time for you.• Long-term results are better with smaller hernia repairs.• Larger hernias have a higher recurrence rate.• Untreated hernias can lead to serious, life-threatening

conditions.

Hernia surgeries may be performed by an open repair (small incision over the herniated area) or by laparoscopic surgery (minimally invasive). Both procedures are considered safe and effective, and usually take about an hour.

Surgical treatment depends on many factors, including the type, size and location of the hernia, whether you have had previous surgeries and if you are a candidate for general anesthetic, nerve blocks or local anesthesia. A comprehensive

Today, most hernia repairs are outpatient surgeries. This means patients are able to return to most normal activities in a few days.

If you suspect or know you have a hernia, call 216.444.7000 to make an appointment for an evaluation or surgery with Dr. Gemma at South Pointe Hospital. To learn more about Cleveland Clinic’s Comprehensive Hernia Center, visit clevelandclinic.org/hernia. Cleveland Clinic offers same-day appointments.
