Brain Health is the key to Elder Health
By Toni Lynn Davis, Executive Director Green Hill Inc.

While forgetfulness in middle age and early elder-hood is a normal experience, many times it is just a circumstance of stress, exhaustion, or a lack of the nutrients and exercise that your body needs to keep your mind alert.
While currently there is no way to prevent a disease such as Alzheimer’s from manifesting if one is genetically predisposed, there are many ways to ensure that your brain remains agile and cognizant for as long as possible.
Farewell Dear Friend
It is with great sadness that we share with our Green Hill family the passing of Board of Trustee member Dr. Catherine Frances Sladowski on Tuesday, Feb. 7, 2012.
Dr. Sladowski was an avid supporter of Green Hill, its staff, family, elders and friends. She visited Green Hill often, spending time with elders and staff. So enamored was she of the quality of care at Green Hill that she stayed with us for her rehabilitative care. Dr. Sladowski was instrumental in the process of bringing the Green House Homes to Green Hill, and provided active leadership and support to her colleagues on the board of trustees as a trusted member for five years.
“Dr. Sladowski always had a kind word, a humorous story, and a pat on the back for the staff at Green Hill,” said CEO and President Toni Lynn Davis. “She was the first to volunteer and was such an active contributor to all of our programs. We will miss her enthusiasm, her spirit, and her friendship.”
Creating Clay Program
It was dirty work but lots of fun was had during the Creating Clay Program at Green Hill.

This fabulous dessert is nutritionally ‘brain healthy’ with all of the berries and dark chocolate flakes. Socially heart healthy, as it serves four people so you should have some friends over to share it. Physically heart healthy, if you go to a ‘pick your own’ farm and pick your own berries or, build up a little arm muscle tone while you froth the milk and grate the chocolate. I know once you eat it you will get a little aerobic exercise from dancing around the kitchen with joy.
