Please donate books, DVD's and CD's to help Ethan Kadish

 

"Thank you, thank you ,and keep them coming."   -Nancy Sullivan

 

Nancy Sullivan is collecting used books, DVD's, and CD's to help cover medical expenses for Ethan Kadish.

Loveland, Oh. - Nancy Sullivan said recently on her Facebook page, “The used books, C.D’s and tape donations for 14 year-old Loveland school student, Ethan Kadish are arriving. My studio is beginning to fill with your gently loved and donated items.” Sullivan teaches and sells art in a Loveland studio.

She said she spoke with Ethan's “folks” last week and Ethan is going “day by day” in his recovery. “Imagine how difficult it is for a once thriving and promising teen to have everything be a struggle.”

Ethan Kadish was tragically struck by lightning in the summer of 2013. His survival was a blessing, but life has become a difficult journey of recovery for Ethan and everyone who loves him.

Sullivan says, “I felt that if Ethan was aware that friends and neighbors and well-wisher still care, it may give him more energy and hope.”

In June of 2013, at the URJ Goldman Union Camp Institute, a summer camp near Indianapolis, Ethan was teaching a small group of his peers how to play Ultimate Frisbee when a bolt of lightning, out of a clear blue sky struck him to the ground. Everything changed for Ethan in that one moment.  He suffered a severe brain injury.  

Today, Ethan still has a long road ahead of him.  He has an extensive daily schedule of different therapies seven days per week – all designed to help him reestablish basic sensory connections within his brain. Ethan requires nursing care, receives all of his nutrition through a feeding tube, and needs a wheelchair to get around.  He is unable to speak or move independently.  Costs of his care is more than $100,000 annually.

The books, C.D.'s and tapes that Sullivan is collecting will be available and on sale at Sullivan’s art studio on Saturday, January 10 at the Loveland Artists Studios On Main, 529 Main Street, in Loveland, Ohio from 4 until 9: PM.

All proceeds from the donations will go to HelpHOPELive and to Ethan, towards his continued recovery.

Nancy asks you, “Please, if you have books etc. please drop them off in the lobby of the art studios and save the date of January 10, and treat yourself to a fun evening where you can find a treasure for yourself."

You can donate by bring items to The Loveland Artist Studios on Main at 529 Main Street from 9 Am until 5 PM.

For information, call Nancy Sullivan at 513-706-3703.

How does Ohio stack-up providing health care services

 

States need to invest wisely in health care as well as in the other related factors that contribute to health. High-value health care is as much about how dollars are spent as it is about how many dollars are spent.

 

From The Pew Charitable Trusts

To provide context for each state’s spending on health care services, the State Health Care Spending Project examined 20 health indicators that show wide variation among states’ residents. Given the complexity of achieving and maintaining good health, direct correlations cannot and should not be made between the health status of the population of a state and the level of its health care spending. High-value health care is as much about how dollars are spent as it is about how many dollars are spent. 

Read Tracking Key Health Indicators: Providing Context for State Health Care Spending for the full analysis.

"I started to shake. Nerves. So, I lowered my gun" - hunter Mike Behrmann

 

When arriving home it was cold, dark, and rainy. Behrmann said his wife told him, “Bring it in the house for pics.”

by David Miller

Maineville, Oh. - “This has truly been a dream come true,” said hunter Mike Behrmann, “This is a passion. I am so proud to tell my stories to anyone who will listen.” Mike lives just outside of Loveland.

Behrmann said he has been a hunter for many years and harvested a lot of deer, however the last five year has been a rough road. He said, “With all the hard work, blood, sweat, tears, and effort I have put into hunting day after day, daylight to dawn. I lost four whitetail bucks.” In November 2012 he was out on a morning hunt, when he had a “giant” 10 point buck walk into his sites. He made a great shot on him and heard him crash to the ground. “We decided to let him lay, so we eased out of the woods for two hours to give the deer time to rest in peace.” When he returned to retrieve his deer, his tree stand was gone – stolen, along with his buck.

“I was ready to give up at that point. The more I thought about it, I realized I would not let that stop me,” Behrmann said. “For the fact that I have instilled the same passion for deer hunting in my son.”

Then, in the 2013 hunting season, while hunting with his nine year-old son, his son finally got to witness first hand what it is like to harvest a mature whitetail buck. “A buck most men would love to harvest,” said Behrmann. “That will be a moment forever in my heart. That moment, my son with his buck, made me realize that I cannot give up.”

That is a little insight to what Behrmann describes as, "The blood, sweat, tears hunter in him" and what he had been through the last five years.

Fast forward to this past December 2. Behrmann packed up his gear to head out for an evening hunt with his buddy, Anthony Miracle. “We hit our hunting spots at about 1 o'clock and got all set up. At around 2 o'clock I decided to take out my grunt call to do a little grunting and rattling with some antlers.” He decided to grunt with his favorite Primos Bleat Can, a doe in heat call devise. He sat and waited about ten minutes, and repeated the call. As he was looking around, one hillside over from where he was sitting, Behrmann spotted the buck of a lifetime. He picked up his Remington 870 shotgun and the buck was roughly 120 yards-away from him, standing there looking around. Behrmann said, “He had heard my calls, but was unsure witch direction to turn.

 

“It seemed like I was standing there for hours, which was only a matter of minutes. I started to shake. Nerves. So, I lowered my gun, took a couple deep breathes to calm them. I grabbed my bleat can, turned it upside down one more time. The buck heard it, turned his head at my direction, and started walking towards me. I raised my gun slowly, put my site on him and shot at 75 yards. He ran down the hill toward me, then up the creek about 150 yards and fell. He was down. I met up with my buddy Anthony, told him what happened, and together we headed to retrieve my deer. I was so excited when we walked up on the monster whitetail I started tearing up because I knew I had finally got my buck. As I was standing over-top of him I teared up more, realizing I had had just harvested the deer of a lifetime.”

 

Behrmann and Miracle sat there and counted the points of this giant “non typical” non-symmetrical antlered Ohio whitetail deer. They could not believe what they we're seeing, a giant, 25-points.

Behrmann said there is no official score yet for his deer, due to a required, 60-day dry time to "set" the rack. He said, “We have an unofficial score from my taxidermist of 219 inches.” The Ohio record is 304 set in 2000 by Michael Beatty.

When arriving home it was cold, dark, and rainy. Behrmann said his wife told him, “Bring it in the house for pics.”

Deer and Deer Hunting Magazine editor, Dan Schmidt wrote, “Might have the coolest spouse ever. I couldn’t help but ask the obvious question: What’s the deal with the buck in the house by the Christmas tree? LOL!"

“I never thought a picture would go so far on social media, and magazines so fast. The outpouring of support has been a major gift, and I am very thankful. I want my story to tell fellow hunters young and old, that no matter how hard you try to achieve a goal... to never give up. To all hunters out there I would say, get your kids involved, and always wear your safety harnesses. Good luck to all.”

Loveland High School Electronics Recycling Event

 

You are invited to bring your used electronics to LHS January 5 – 10

Loveland High School (LHS) in partnership with Cohen Recycling is setting up an electronics recycling event that will run from Monday, Jan. 5, through Friday, Jan. 9, during normal school business hours, with additional hours from noon until 1:30 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 10.

This event is open to all community members with old electronics to recycle, and that includes anything with a cord (hair dryers, drills, blenders).

The electronics recycling program is part of the LHS Environmental Science Program, and is a student-initiated, student-run event designed to show the importance of recycling and reusing all appropriate materials – not just paper and plastic.

"I hope this drive will be able to show students the importance of recycling and saving the environment for many years to come," said LHS Environmental Science Student Emma Berryman.

Please note: There will be a $5 charge to recycle any television.
