From Autism to Alzheimer’s: A Broad Spectrum by Dr. Michal Luchins
I recently was asked to review the blood work results of an octogenarian. He suffers from back pain, significant dementia, persistent anemia and apathy. He doesn’t move all day. He just lays on his bed. Yet just a few short years ago, he was a vibrant, upbeat individual. As a developmental optometrist, I see mostly children.

This was followed by another leap in membership and another move to another garage.

We Indians…know that everything has power. Stones have power. A blade of grass has power. Trees and clouds and all our relatives in the insect and animal world have power. We believe we must respect that power by acknowledging its presence. By honoring the power of the spirits in that way, it becomes our power as well. It protects us. —Russell Means
