A support group for caregivers, caring for those with Alzheimer’s Disease, offers a safe place to talk, share, and support other caregivers who understand the pressures the role can bring.

Anyone who lives with the challenges of being the sole or primary caregiver for a loved one, spouse, or parent with Alzheimer’s disease, will find the group a great place to talk openly, candidly, and honestly about the realities of that day-to-day care.

What benefits can the caregiver support group bring?

Being a caregiver can be difficult physically, with the hands on care for bathing, dressing, and feeding someone with advanced Alzheimer’s, or simply repeating information and keeping a watchful eye on your loved one.

It isn’t simply the physical workload that can make being a caregiver challenging. The changes in personality and decreased independence, which come with Alzheimer’s disease, can be difficult to live through and put a strain on the caregiver.

Though you may be committed to caring for your loved ones at home, where they happiest and are familiar with the environment, the responsibility and day-to-day pressures can be overwhelming. The monthly caregiver support group, held at Palm Beach Neurological Center in Palm Beach Gardens, offers a safe place to talk openly and honestly about your experiences as a caregiver.

Discussions and information on the latest developments in care and treatment for dementia can be found, along with a group of other caregivers who are living with the same experiences. Caregivers can share advice, anecdotes, and support.

Support groups have led to close bonds and strong friendships among caregivers. Nobody can understand the daily ins and outs of caring for someone with dementia, the grief of watching a loved one change as the illness progresses, and the challenges that this caregiving can bring better than another caregiver who is experiencing the same challenges.

The support group at Palm Beach Neurological Center is a place to learn, share and support others, as well as gain support from others, and to find relief in these shared experiences.

I am the prime caregiver – I can’t leave to attend a group.

Attending a support group is a chance to take a breath for some relief from the daily pressure of caregiving. The chance to talk about your experiences, share stories with other caregivers, and experience that break from caring for a short period each month will mean you are better able to care for your loved one. You may even adopt new care methods and experiences that will make caring at home easier after discussions within the group.

Sometimes something as simple as finding a place to laugh, talk, and let go of some of those stresses and strains can offer relief to caregivers. This means that you can return home to continue giving care after this short break, feeling refreshed and reassured that you aren’t alone, knowing you have a network of other caregivers supporting your ongoing journey.

In the US alone, there are approximately 3.2 million patients diagnosed with chronic migraine. A person must suffer from 15 (or more) headache days, with the headaches lasting longer than 4 hours at a time, in a calendar month to be diagnosed with chronic migraine. Unfortunately, up until now there was no effective preventive treatment approved by the FDA proven to lessen the occurrence of migraine.

BOTOX^® is first and only FDA-approved treatment to prevent migraine

A surprising answer to migraine prevention has come from the cosmetic sector. BOTOX^®is not just helping people look younger; it is also proving an effective treatment for migraine. BOTOX^®is the first and only FDA-approved treatment to prevent migraine in adults suffering from chronic migraine. Over the course of two clinical studies involving 1,384 adult patients, it was found that BOTOX^® significantly lessened the occurrence of headache days (versus a placebo).

In order to be included in the studies, the patients had to suffer from 15 or more headache days within a 28 day period. Their headaches had to last over 4 hours per occurrence and about half of those headaches had to qualify as a migraine or probable migraine. A migraine is a recurrent, throbbing headache that may be accompanied by nausea, sensitivity to light and sound, or disturbed vision.

At the beginning of the study, the researchers determined that these patients averaged approximately 20 headache days per month as a baseline.

The studies were designed to be double blind, where neither the person administering the treatment nor the patientsknew whether or not they were receiving the placebo (in this case, saline water) or the BOTOX^®treatment. None of the patients were permitted to take any other headache treatments during the study, except in the case of painkiller for acute headaches. The patients received injections every 12 weeks and were monitored over the course of 56 weeks (receiving a total of 5 injections).

It was found that after 24 weeks, patients on BOTOX^®had 8 to 9 fewer headache days per month compared with the baseline. Those on the placebo had 6 to 7 fewer headache days. For patients suffering from chronic migraines, reducing the occurrence of migraine by more than half basically gives them back their lives.

The benefits of BOTOX^® as a preventive treatment for chronic migraine

Migraine significantly impacts a person’s life. Due to the nature and length of time involved, people with chronic migraine lose significant time from work and school. They miss out on leisure and social activities. In addition, their efficiency levels drop, sometimes individuals experience as much as a 50% reduction in productivity which they refer to as a “migraine hangover”. Being incapacitated for most of a given month means that many individuals cannot hold down a regular job, maintain relationships, or generally enjoy life. Without an effective way to treat and prevent the occurrence of migraine, many sufferers also deal with depression and anxiety.

Now that BOTOX^® is FDA-approved as a migraine treatment, adult sufferers of chronic migraines can reduce the occurrence of debilitating headache days by as much as half. They may now reengage with life.

Not just anyone can administer BOTOX^®for migraine relief

Those suffering from chronic migraine should consult with a headache specialist who is also well versed in using BOTOX^®for chronic migraine treatment. Dr. Michael Tuchman, a neurologist in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, and nurse practitioner Rhonda Skiles have been heavily involved in migraine research and BOTOX^®treatments. They are now actively reaching out to offer this treatment for chronic migraine sufferers in the area. For more information about BOTOX^®for migraine and to find out how it might help you, call (561) 694-1010.

Co-working is a term used to describe the growing trend of small businesses and start-ups sharing office space and staff in an effort to offset expenses. The downturn of the economy gave rise to a booming new industry designed to meet this need. Think of this venture as a hospitality industry for businesses. It’s similar to how a person on vacation can reserve and stay in a room at an upscale hotel and have access to certain amenities like Wi-Fi, cable, and concierge services. A business that rents office space from a company like KeyCorp Executive Suites in West Palm Beach, has access to certain amenities that make doing business just a little bit easier and more efficient.

These amenities include things like receptionist and administrative services, conference room access, internet and IT services, and more. In addition to these services, renting an office space like this comes with other benefits:

• Provides flexibility and room for growth. Businesses like KeyCorp Executive Suites offer a range of different office options from a “virtual office space” to larger suites that accommodate a number of people. As a start-up grows from a home business to a viable professional powerhouse, it can graduate from one service level to the next.

• Offsets expenses. One of the problems for small businesses and start-ups is the need to have a professional physical location. If a business chooses to go the traditional route, they’ll have to find the right office, negotiate their own lease, employ staff, purchase furnishings, wire the office, pay for utilities and cleaning, and cover all the other unexpected costs of maintaining a private office. Sometimes a business doesn’t need all the staff, space, and hassle.

• Co-working, or renting a shared office space, means a single business doesn’t need to carry all the risk and expense itself. Instead, a number of businesses work together to fund a space that takes care of all the office logistics on their behalf.

• Networking and socializing opportunities are in-house. The nature of this new co-working trend is that an eclectic set of businesses and entrepreneurs end up working in the same space. This provides a unique networking opportunity to make contacts with other businesses that can either leverage or use each other’s services. Also, running a one-person operation can be a lonely venture. Going to a co-working space provides the social interaction of water cooler chat sessions when needed.

• Staff when it’s needed, no staff when it’s not. Businesses like KeyCorp Executive Suites offer staffing support for things like receptionist and message services, copying and mailing services, and other basic administrative services that can be used as needed. As the staff are shared among the other businesses in the building, no one business needs to carry the cost of hiring unnecessary people.

• Provides a professional and well-equipped space for work. Many businesses start at home and this can be a challenge for some. Constant interruptions from family or pets can prevent focus. It’s easier to be distracted in a home environment by little things as the typical person is not conditioned to work at home on the same level as one typically works outside the home. Not to mention, maintaining a physical office space demonstrates a certain level of stability and professional success. It also provides a space that can accommodate face-to-face client meetings, if needed.

KeyCorp Executive Offices now provides a way for local entrepreneurs to pool their resources and get state of the art and fully staffed office space at a fraction of the cost it would take to do on their own. To find out more about how co-working may be of benefit please visit www.officespaceinwestpalmbeach.com or call (561) 721-3700.

The owner of a luxurious villa on the southern Pacific Coastline of Costa Rica has decided to sell their fully furnished home for $1.1 million. The property has been highlighted in the locally popular magazine “Estilos y Casas” due to its creative blend of modern and traditional elements.

The luxurious villa sits on a 7,000 square foot beachfront lot overlooking Hermosa Playa, the well-known surfing beach of the Pacific Coast. There are two houses, the main house and the guest house, which is in front of the main house so the view of the ocean is unobstructed. The traditional Spanish tile roofs, exposed brick domes, rock walls, and square clean lines blur the line between a traditional tropical retreat and modern architectural features.

This blend continues in the main house’s 2,420 square feet of living space. Square columns separate rooms in an open floor plan. Expansive windows line the walls looking out over the veranda to the beach. Doors lead from each room, including the bedrooms, to the veranda taking advantage of the Costa Rica climate. High, vaulted ceilings and dark exposed wooden beams contrast with the white walls. Eclectic artwork, some modern art painted by Tico artists, dot the walls.

Italian marble and custom wood cabinetry add to the luxurious feel of the kitchens and bathrooms. Both the main house and the guest house boast fully equipped gourmet kitchens. The main house has three bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms, while the guest house has two bedrooms and one bathroom. The guesthouse is 513 square feet of living space. Ceramic tile floors are judiciously used on the estate.

The home is being sold fully furnished, as it was primarily intended for a vacation home. The furnishings include sturdy polished wood tables and dining chairs in both the main house and guest house, and on the veranda for outdoor eating. Each living area has lounge chairs, settees or sofas, comfortable chairs and basic electronics such as televisions and DVD players. The covered veranda and yard have a number of different gathering spots to enjoy the tropical breezes or sunbathe. The private pool has a separate children’s pool.

Hermosa Palms, the gated community in which this villa resides, offers 24/7 security, a community clubhouse and pool, and outdoor landscaping maintenance. Playa Hermosa is a 3 mile long stretch of chocolate sand just south of Jacó. The town of Hermosa is about a five minute drive from the villa and has the nearest collection of restaurants, groceries, and other amenities.

Jacó is ten minutes north and is a bustling hotspot for tourists. A state-of-the-art hospital and the international airport in San José are about 90 minutes away. About 60 minutes south of Playa Hermosa is the world famous Manuel Antonio National Park, quite likely the busiest national park of the country.

Each year Playa Hermosa hosts a surfing competition which draws surfers from around the world. The remainder of the time, despite being so close to busy tourist attractions, Playa Hermosa is quiet and practically deserted.

As there is no MLS listing in Costa Rica, Margo and Jeff Ackerman of Ackerman International Realty hoof it around the country regularly in search of property listings for their clients. They discovered the Hermosa Villa during a recent search and are pleased to list the home for sale. They figure that the person most interested in this home will be someone looking for a second home or possibly someone looking to retire in state in Costa Rica.

The Ackerman’s relocated to Costa Rica a number of years ago and now sharetheir experiences and other tips regarding Costa Rica in hopes of helping others contemplating a similar move.
