  • Get Well and Stay Well
    Is your stomach always acting up? Maybe you’re just tired all the time. You have frequent headaches, or you can’t sleep at night.
    So, you go to the doctor and he or she examines you, asks questions, runs lab tests. They don’t reveal an identifiable illness, so you get no answers.
    “It doesn’t mean there’s nothing wrong,” say physicians Steve and Sandi Amoils, co-medical directors of the Alliance Institute for Integrative Medicine in Cincinnati and the authors of “Get Well & Stay Well, Optimal Health through Transformational Medicine” (www.getwell-staywell.org).
    Transformational Medicine makes use of all effective therapies, both conventional and alternative, to achieve remarkable results in treating and preventing illness. This discussion will focus on the tools to transform stress to success and find optimal balance in your health before those vague symptoms become real illness.

  • The Reluctant Donor
    The last time you renewed your driver’s license, did you check the box that says “Organ Donor?” Suzanne Ruff of Mooresville, N.C., hopes the answer is yes.
    “My family would have pretty much been wiped off the face of the Earth if it weren’t for the generosity of organ donors,” she said. Her mother and two sisters, as well as several aunts and uncles and cousins have all needed kidney transplants to save their lives. Her family carries the gene for Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), a hereditary disease for which there is no cure. Join us to hear this incredible story of information and inspiration!
    A portion of the proceeds from The Reluctant Donor will go towards kidney disease research.
