Heart-Smart Cuisine

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women in the United States. And as we all know, diet plays an important role in the develop-

ment of major heart-attack risk factors such as hypertension, obesity, diabetes and arthrosclerosis.

Changing your diet and implementing diet-based preven-tion methods is not only more feasible, but ultimately more cost-effective than relying on drugs.

Here’s how to get started:

LIMIT UNHEATHLY FATSBelieve it or not, fat is an important nutrient to have in

your diet. But it’s all about the types of fat you choose. Fats are a vital structural component of cell membranes

and are required for absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K. Limiting foods high in trans or saturated fats will lessen the risk of cardio-vascular disease.

Limit the amount of solid fats you con-sume, such as butter, margarine, shorten-ing, fried food and fast food. Include more polyunsaturat-ed and monounsatu-rated fats, which can help lower so-called “bad” cholesterol.

Good sources for these fats include olive oil, canola oil, nuts, seeds, fi sh and avocados.

CHOOSE LOW-FAT PROTEINS

Lean meats, such as poultry, fi sh, low-fat dairy, beans, soy products and eggs are your best sources of high-quality, low-fat protein.

fyi / nutrition

Simple ways to reduce your risk for cardiovascular disease.

Have fi sh at least twice a week, especially salmon, mackerel, and herring, which contain omega 3 fatty acids. These fatty acids help to lower undesirable blood fats known as triglyc-erides.

Also, make sure meat is never fried and that milk is low-fat or skim, not whole.

EAT FRUITS AND VEGGIESFruits and vegetables contain many nutrients that may

benefi t the heart, including folate, potassium, plant sterols (shown to lower cholesterol) and antioxidants such as vita-min C and fl avonoids.

They’re also a great source of fi ber. Snacking and fi lling up with more fruits and vegetables helps you to eat less high-fat food, such as meat, cheese and processed products.

GO FOR WHOLE GRAINS

Whole grains are an-other great source of

fi ber and other nutri-ents that help regu-late blood pressure and play a role in heart health.

You can increase your whole grains by finding substi-

tutes for refined-grain products. Look

for whole-grain ce-real, oatmeal, quinoa,

brown rice, whole-wheat bread and fl axseed.

HOLD THE SALTHigh salt or sodium intake can

contribute to high blood pressure, which is a known risk factor for cardio-

vascular disease. The most recent federal dietary guidelines sug-

and are required for absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K. Limiting foods high in

gest healthy adults consume no more than 2,300 milligrams of sodium a day, which is the equivalent of about 1 teaspoon.

If you’re aged 51 or older, African-American or have high blood pressure, diabetes or chronic kidney disease, then you should consume no more than 1,500 milligrams per day.

Putting down the saltshaker is the fi rst step toward reducing the amount of salt you use daily. However, many processed foods, such as canned soups and frozen entrées, contain high amounts of salt.

So, eating more fresh food and making your own meals is your best bet. If you aren’t much of a cook and rely on the convenience of prepared meals, look for reduced sodium op-tions.

CONTROL PORTIONSIt’s way too easy to eat too much – especially at restaurants,

where portions are often so large. Knowing proper portion sizes is important in learning how

much to eat and when to stop. It may take some time to be able to visually decipher what exactly a cup or half cup looks like, so it’s OK to initially measure things out.

Here are some general guidelines:3 ounces of meat = size of a deck of cards1/3 cup = 1 serving of pasta or rice½ cup = 1 serving of fruit½ cup cooked, 1 cup raw = 1 serving of vegetables1 slice = 1 serving of bread½ cup dry cereal or oatmeal = 1 serving of grain8 ounces (1 cup) = 1 serving of milk4 ounces (1/2 cup) = 1 serving of fruit juice ■

Planning for the Inevitable

fyi / law

Documents speak for you when you can’t speak for yourself.

by Randy Noles

Illness, taxes and death. Since all are inevitable, it only makes

sense to prepare for them. That way, you’ll make certain that your welfare and wealth don’t fall into the hands of

the courts – or ne’er-do-well relatives.When it comes to estate planning, Floridians are already

at an advantage, tax-wise. The state doesn’t levy an estate tax – or an income tax, for that matter – so only the federal estate tax comes into play. And that particular tax has been in an almost constant state of flux for the past several years.

Under the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconcili-ation Act of 2001, the federal estate tax was eliminated in 2010. It returned in 2011, but exempted estates valued at $5 million or less for individuals and $10 million or less for couples.

As of Jan. 1, 2012, the exemption increases to $5.12 million for individuals and $10.24 million for couples. The portability provision introduced in 2011 remains in effect in 2012, mean-

ing that the surviving spouse, in addition to his or her own $5.12 million exemption, will be able to use any portion of the deceased spouse’s exemption that went unused.

Also in Florida, the state’s constitution specifically ex-empts an individual’s homestead from almost all creditor claims, except for mechanic’s liens, taxes and mortgages.

Life insurance and annuities, because they vest directly to the surviving spouse and aren’t subject to probate, are also generally protected.

“Florida is one of the best debtor states in the country, if not the best,” says Evelyn W. Cloninger, partner in Clon-inger & Files, an Oviedo law firm specializing in eldercare issues. “It sounds strange to say, but some people retire here specifically because the laws are so favorable regarding the estates of people who die while they’re residents.”

To protect your wealth and well being, here’s a discussion of several essential estate-planning documents.

7FY_Jan12_Estate Planning.indd 8 12/21/11 10:24:49 AM


Documents speak for you when you can’t speak for yourself.

ADVANCE DIRECTIVEWhat would happen if you experienced a serious medical

problem and couldn’t speak for yourself? Would anyone know your wishes regarding medical care, life support and other in-terventions?

“In my opinion, if you’re going to have only one document, it should be an advance directive,” says merrell Bailey, managing partner with Bailey Zobel Pilcher, an orlando law firm special-izing in estate planning. “It has the greatest capacity to improve your quality of life. I call it the momma document. The rest are baby documents.”

advance directives are legal documents designed to ensure that your wishes are carried out. There are two types of advance directives: the living will and the designation of Health care Surrogate form.

In a living will, you specify how aggressively you wish to be treated if you’re suffering from a terminal condition in its end stages or have irreversible brain damage.

High-profile cases such as those of Terri Schiavo and Karen ann Quinlan – young women kept artificially alive as family members, healthcare providers, politicians and judges bitterly wrangled over their fate – demonstrate the value of living wills.

It’s wise to make such arrangements at almost any age, says cloninger, since disability or brain damage can occur unexpect-edly as a result of a health problem or even a freak accident.

“doctors and nurses will tell you that a great percentage of their patients in the trauma center come from motorcycle ac-cidents or men falling off ladders while trying to hang holiday lights on their homes,” says cloninger.

The living will and the designation of Health care Surrogate form are really two sides of the same coin. The living will is a document that outlines your wishes in advance. But a docu-ment can’t anticipate every eventuality. The surrogate form allows you to appoint another person to speak for you when you’re unable to speak for yourself.

That person will make medical decisions on your behalf, consent to – or refuse – certain medical procedures, select phy-sicians and advocate for you in healthcare matters.

cloninger advises her clients to provide a copy of the ad-vance directive to a physician and a family member, along with instructions on how to locate the original. most people, she says, choose spouses or other family members as their health-care surrogates.

“clients often joke about whether the selected person will ‘pull the plug’ too quickly,” says cloninger. “I assure them that the patient must be suffering from the end stages of a terminal illness, or be lacking in cognitive function with no reasonable medical probability of improvement, before the question of terminating life support even applies.”

Treating physicians are not going to approve disconnecting life-support systems unless the appropriate criteria are met. a bioethics committee and independent physicians must be con-sulted as well as family members.

“I emphasize to clients that by making advance directives and living wills, they make their own decisions,” says cloninger. “It prevents family disputes or spouses having to agonize over what’s right.”

With an advance directive, it’s important that you specifically waive privacy and security rules outlined in The Health Insur-ance Portability and accountability act (HIPaa). otherwise, hospitals and physicians aren’t authorized to share medical in-formation with your surrogate

DURABLE POWER OF ATTORNEYdurable power of attorney designates someone you trust to take

care of your business affairs. Such an agreement is entered into while you’re still competent and, unlike limited or general powers of attorney, remains in effect if you become incapacitated.

a person with durable power of attorney is authorized to handle such matters as buying or selling property and invest-ments, opening and closing bank accounts, filing lawsuits, pay-ing bills, handling taxes and more.

The recipient of the power of attorney – the person who is given the power to act on your behalf – is called the “attorney-in-fact,” or sometimes the “agent.” However, not all agents are attorneys-in-fact.

you should grant durable power of attorney only to someone you trust implicitly, says carla deloach-Bryant, a downtown orlando attorney who specializes in estate and tax planning. Such authority can be abused – although wrongful use is actionable.

“The no. 1 problem with any power-of-attorney arrange-ment is appointing the wrong person,” says deloach-Bry-ant. “If someone is disorganized and can’t pay their bills, then they’re not likely to do any better with your bills. If someone is a spendthrift, or has a spouse who’s a spend-thrift, then you could have a problem. Someone who’s not honest won’t suddenly become honest when they have your power of attorney.”

making matters more complex, the state legislature recently expanded the rules regarding power-of-attorney arrangements. “a durable power of attorney used to be seven pages, and now it’s 44 pages,” notes Bailey.

That’s because everything the attorney-in-fact is allowed to do must now be specifically enumerated.

“Before, my power of attorney could just read, ‘I appoint my husband to do anything I could do,’” Bailey explains. “now, it has to say, ‘I appoint my husband to do anything I could do, as long as it’s listed in this document.’”



Although power-of-attorney agreements drawn up under the old rules are still valid, Bailey says she’s encouraging her clients to have their existing documents updated.

LAST WILL AND TESTAMENTUnlike an advance directive and a power of attorney, which

are implemented while a person is still alive, a will doesn’t go into effect until after death.

A will is a written legal document that specifies how you want your assets to be distributed. It must be filed with the Florida Probate Court upon death, and the court then super-vises the distribution of your assets.

Many people incorrectly believe that if their estate is mod-est and not subject to estate taxes, there’s no need for pro-bate. However, any estate in which assets must be distributed in accordance with a will is subject to probate, regardless of whether the estate is taxable.

If you die without a will – the legal term is “intestate” – then the state determines, by statute, how your assets are divided and who your beneficiaries will be. The statutes are rigid, and no exceptions are made for unusual circumstances or excep-tional needs.

“Your will speaks at death,” says Cloninger. “Your power of attorney speaks during your lifetime and is terminated by your death.”

Preparing a will involves making a number of tough de-cisions. Who will be the heirs? How much should each re-ceive? Should they receive it outright, or in trust? If in trust, what kind, and what are the tax implications? Who should be the trustee, and who are the successor beneficiaries if an heir dies?

REVOCABLE TRUSTA revocable trust is a document created to manage your as-

sets during your lifetime and distribute the remaining assets after your death. The person who creates a trust is called the “grantor,” or “settlor.” The person responsible for the manage-ment of the trust assets is the “trustee.”

Assuming he or she is competent to do so, the grantor often also serves as the trustee. The trust is termed revocable since you may modify or terminate it during your lifetime, as long as you’re not incapacitated.

The trust provides for a successor to take over when the original trustee becomes disabled, incapacitated or dies. The successor trustee – usually a spouse, child, friend, lawyer or professional trustee from a qualified financial institution – is authorized to continue managing your trust assets, paying your bills and making investment decisions.

Upon your death, the trustee is responsible for paying all claims and taxes, and then distributing the assets to your ben-

eficiaries as described in the trust agreement. A well-crafted trust is comprehensive and lengthy, detailing

powers of handling assets and affairs such as buying, selling, renting, leasing, suing, hiring or firing. Disgruntled family members can challenge a trust, but it isn’t easy, particularly if it has been operated effectively and efficiently over a number of years.

A will, on the other hand, is usually first revealed to the fam-ily after a death – and those disappointed by its contents are more prone to mount legal challenges.

“Your trust should be adjusted to reflect your situation in life,” says Cloninger. “For instance, at age 55, you may still have a young family. So your trust might focus on providing for your children’s education rather than setting them up as adults.”

You might also specify a different arrangement for each beneficiary. One child might receive his or her share outright, for example, while another, who’s less settled and responsible, might have to wait several years.

If you’re older, and your adult offspring are well established, you might consider naming a charity as a beneficiary.

REVISIT AND REVISEMaking sure the proper documents are in place is a criti-

cal first step, but just as important is reviewing and updating those documents on a regular basis to adjust to changes in your life.

Deaths, births, marriages, divorces, bankruptcy – any of these significant family and life events can have an impact on your estate and healthcare planning.

For example, if you’re not careful, an estranged ex-spouse might end up with your worldly goods and decision-making powers over your healthcare.

Bailey says that due to the poor economy, some estranged couples are now simply separating instead of divorcing. But if a separated spouse dies without having changed his or her will – or without a will at all – then assets are distributed as though the marriage were still intact. “This is happening lot these days,” she notes.

You don’t have to be affluent to benefit from estate plan-ning. Having proper documents in place before you need someone to look after your medical and financial needs will protect your interests in the ways you’ve specified – instead of leaving you in the care of someone you may not know or trust. n

But there’s no substi-tute for legal advice, particularly regarding matters so com-plex and so important.

EXPANSION MEANS OPPORTUNITYAT POPULAR LAKESIDE COMMUNITY

inter Park Towers, a charming neigh-

borhood in this lively jewel of a city,

has long been one of Central Florida’s

most desirable – and successful – ac-

tive living communities. Residents

occupy luxuriously appointed apartments, garden

apartments or spacious single-family homes and villas

in beautifully landscaped neighborhoods along the

shores of sparkling Lake Berry.

Because the 421-home community is virtually

always at or near full occupancy, many on-the-go

retirees have had to go on waiting lists and hope that

a vacancy eventually occurs.

Now, with a major expansion program under way,

those who have coveted the Winter Park Towers life-

style will have an opportunity to experience it – if they

act quickly. Loch Berry, a new apartment complex, will

add an additional 54 state-of-the-art, two-bedroom

homes to the community’s offerings.

A 383-vehicle parking garage is part of the $21 mil-

lion-plus project, which will be complete by late 2012.

Demand for the Loch Berry units is expected to be

strong – and it’s easy to understand why. Winter Park

Towers is known for its premier Florida lifestyle, offer-

ing such amenities as its own party boat exclusively for

the use of residents and guests. The community offers

a full continuum of exciting on-campus activities that

change from day to day.

Better yet, Winter Park Towers is located in the re-

gion’s most charming and dynamic city. At the heart of

Winter Park is Park Avenue, a European-style shopping

and dining district encompassing some of the region’s

most fashionable boutiques and popular restaurants.

“The Avenue,” as locals call it, is also the scene of the

annual Winter Park Sidewalk Festival, one of the most

prestigious arts-oriented events in the Southeast.

Winter Park has for years been the region’s cultural

hub, with world-class galleries and museums as well as

several popular theatrical troupes. Nearby Winter Park

Village is packed with more restaurants, nightspots

and movie theaters.

Winter Park Towers also provides a full continuum of

care. Once you qualify for continuing care residency,

there’s a one-time entrance fee and a monthly service

fee. You maintain financial autonomy and indepen-

dence, knowing that should you ever need long-term

care you are protected.

LIFESTYLE IS THE KEY TO HEALTH AND HAPPINESS AT DAVENPORT COMMUNITY

nyone over the age of 40 knows it intui-

tively: the most important keys to health,

happiness and longevity can be found in

one’s lifestyle.

Fast and furious? That’s okay for car-

toons, but for people, it’s regular exercise, good nutri-

tion, security and lots of leisure.

Del Webb Orlando has built an entire community

around that premise – and to listen to residents, the

company has surpassed even its own lofty goals.

“I wouldn’t live anywhere else,” says prolific chil-

dren’s book author Donna Morris, a resident at Del

Webb Orlando since 2008.

For Morris, and for most of the more than 200

residents at Del Webb Orlando in Davenport, the com-

pany’s 50-plus years of experience designing, building

and managing active adult communities has paid off.

“It’s one thing to plan the construction of nearly

900 homes on a plot of land,” says Sean Strickler, vice

president of sales for Del Webb in the North Florida

region. “But making a community come alive, so that it

nurtures its residents –that takes a special talent,”.

That point hits home for author Morris, who eight

years ago suffered a tragic accident. While stoking a

fire pit outside her Lake Wales home, she was suddenly

engulfed in a fireball that burned more than half of her

body. Today, Morris jokes about it.

“I tell my friends it was a cheap way to get a chemical

peel,” she laughs.

Now fully recovered, Morris says she and her hus-

band chose their Del Webb Orlando home because

they found a sense of community there that surpassed

anything they had seen elsewhere.

“My husband feels that when he’s away, I’m taken

care of by our incredible neighbors,” she notes.

Earlier this year Del Webb Orlando unveiled its newest

community amenity, the 30,800-square-foot Montecito

Clubhouse, a happening place that hosts educational,

recreational and entertainment programs and events.

The 2011 season also saw the introduction of Del

Webb’s Garden Series homes, a collection of five new

floorplans priced from the $120s.

Del Webb Orlando will soon host a grand opening

event to premier its new model park, with five new

model homes and a sales pavilion. The kickoff event

will also introduce eight new Classic Series designs

featuring larger rooms, gourmet kitchens and unique

drop zones.

Del Webb Orlando features world-class health and

wellness amenities that are all part of the lifestyle – an

endless array of activities, pastimes, hobbies and events

are administered by a full time Lifestyle Director.

So, visit today and love life to the fullest.

The Grammy-winning entertainer has difficulty with his short-term memory, but is still wowing audiences with his undiminished musi-cianship. Somehow, music seems to resist, at least temporarily, the ravages of Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia.

By the summer of 2011, it was apparent even from the cheap seats that something was wrong with glen campbell. His concerts had become erratic affairs, marked less by exquisite musicianship and

more by forgotten lyrics and rambling banter.The country music Hall of famer was, after all, 75 years

old. But he still looked and sounded substantially like the boyish hit-maker who charmed late-1960s’ television audi-ences with his down-home humor and soaring voice.

In early June, after campbell performed at the Palladium near Indianapolis, a reviewer described the singer as “unpre-pared at best and disoriented at worst.”

at the grand casino mille lacs near minneapolis, another reviewer lamented campbell’s use of Teleprompters and com-mented on his apparent inability to remember who had written his biggest-selling records, or in which key they were played.

Perhaps, some whispered, he was drinking again. In 2003, he had been jailed in Phoenix after being convicted of drunk driving and leaving the scene of an accident. and in the early 1980s, cocaine use and a volatile romance with 21-year-old Tanya Tucker had made him a tabloid fixture.

or, as yet another reviewer opined, after 50 years on the road perhaps glen campbell just didn’t care anymore.

But none of those explanations were true. In late June, camp-bell and his wife of nearly 30 years, Kim Woolen, announced that the man whose music helped shape the soundtrack of the baby-boom generation was battling alzheimer’s disease.

The diagnosis had been delivered six months prior, follow-ing several years of short-term memory loss and occasional erratic behavior. Then, the pair sprung another surprise.

campbell was not quietly retiring; he was embarking on a worldwide goodbye Tour. While the move was widely regard-ed as courageous, friends and fans nonetheless worried that the rigors of traveling and performing would exact a huge physical and emotional toll – and that the concerts would be more painful than poignant.

But the skeptics hadn’t counted on campbell’s indomitable spirit – and on the way in which music can resist, for a time at least, the memory-destroying progression of this incurable disease.

“There is a true desire on their part to perform a public service,” campbell’s doctor, cedars-Sinai neurologist Hart cohen, told the Los Angeles Times. “They want to make this condition something people aren’t embarrassed to talk about, by letting them know that even people of prominence are vul-nerable. Then, hopefully, people who have it can get the medi-cal attention and support they need. It’s not necessarily going to be of benefit to him, but it will benefit others.”

n n nalthough alzheimer’s does severely affect memory and speech,

there are studies hinting that people who cease to be intellectu-ally active decline more quickly than those who remain engaged in life and in pursuing their passions.

music, in particular, clearly benefits alzheimer’s patients, whether they’re musicians or not. music therapy, in which patients listen to familiar songs, is known to have a calming effect, perhaps because the songs unlock pleasing memories and associations.

anecdotal evidence also suggests that playing a musical instrument somehow slows progression of the disease. now there’s research indicating that songs, even unfamiliar ones,

help Alzheimer’s patients learn and retain new information. In a study completed last year at the Boston University

School of Medicine, both Alzheimer’s patients and a control group of healthy elderly people heard the lyrics of 40 songs, either spoken or sung with full musical accompaniment. In an effort to ensure that the songs were unknown to the par-ticipants, researchers used relatively current children’s music.

Subjects with Alzheimer’s recalled the musical versions at a far greater rate than the spoken versions, which the re-searchers expected. But they were surprised to find that the Alzheimer’s patients even outperformed the control group.

The results point to a fundamental difference in how pa-tients with Alzheimer’s and healthy older adults process and retrieve musical stimuli, says Brandon Ally, Ph.D., an assistant professor of neurology and director of Neuropsychology Re-search at the university’s Cen-ter for Translational Cognitive Neuroscience.

“Music processing encom-passes a complex neural network that recruits from all areas of the brain, which is affected at a slow-er rate in Alzheimer’s compared to the areas of the brain typically associated with memory,” Ally adds. “Understanding the nature of musical processing and mem-ory in patients with Alzheimer’s may allow the development of more therapies.”

Dr. Ira Goodman, a neurolo-gist and researcher at The Com-pass Clinic in Orlando, agrees that music therapy is “an under-utilized modality” that may have applications far beyond behav-ior modification in Alzheimer’s patients.

“We haven’t yet gotten to the core of all the ways in which mu-sic affects memory disorders,” Goodman says. “But there’s a lot of incredible research hap-pening. We’ve also found that music therapy is helpful for pa-tients with Parkinson’s and other movement disorders.”

As for musicians, researchers have long known that some Al-zheimer’s patients can continue to read music long after they can no longer read words. And some can continue to play musical instruments even after they can no longer dress themselves.

n n nCampbell, the seventh of 10 children born to sharecropper

parents near Delight, Ark., came to California in the 1950s and quickly became one of the busiest session guitarists in Hollywood.

He was a member of the legendary group of L.A. studio musicians known as the Wrecking Crew, an A-list contingent

who played on hit records by Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Dean Martin, Merle Haggard and the Beach Boys, among others

The Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour ran from 1968 to 1972 on CBS and made Campbell one of the most popular en-tertainers in the country. A chain of hits, mostly written by Jimmy Webb, are now considered among the best pop records ever made.

“By the Time I Get to Phoenix,” “Gentle on My Mind,” “Galveston” and others rocketed to the top of the charts and became standards. “Southern Nights,” “Country Boy” and “Rhinestone Cowboy” kept Campbell on the radio into the 1980s.

Although his recording career faded in recent years, he re-mained a reliable concert draw. The venues may have been off the beaten track, but they were usually full, demonstrat-

ing that nostalgia can sustain an artist’s career for decades – par-ticularly an artist with Campbell’s talent and body of work.

However, since the Alzheimer’s announcement and the subse-quent tour, the erstwhile oldies act has found himself back in the musical mainstream.

At first, the attention may have been spurred primarily by morbid curiosity. But as Campbell and his band, consisting of Kim and his talented children, barnstormed the United Kingdom and played to packed houses, even people who had never bought a Glen Campbell record found them-selves pulling for him.

“I should have said at the outset, it’s not my intention to make this sound as though it was a sad and sorry occasion,” wrote a reviewer in York, England. “Campbell had his sellout audience laughing, cheering, whistling and clapping

through 80 minutes of nonstop hits, some slow and melodic, some up-tempo, and when I was crying, you need to know I was smiling as well.”

Added a reviewer in Birmingham, who acknowledged a few nervous moments when Campbell forgot a lyric or flubbed a note: “I won’t be as patronizing as to suggest people with debilitating, incurable diseases show it every day. But if what Campbell showed during his hour-plus set didn’t constitute bravery of some form, I don’t know what does.”

Campbell’s new album, Ghost on the Canvas, is also earn-ing raves. Producer Julian Raymond, who co-wrote a number of songs with Campbell for the project, lauded the singer’s commitment. The album was completed after the Alzheimer’s diagnosis – and in spite of the difficulty learning new lyrics.

Ghost on the Canvas, Campbell’s farewell album, showcases his guitar wizardry and a dozen poignant new songs, some of which

reflect on his life and career.

5FY_Jan1211_Campbell.indd 16 12/21/11 12:37:30 PM

“He’s from that school,” Raymond says. “It’s an unusual breed of people. They do their homework, they listen to the songs, they come into the studio, they get the job done.”

While some of Campbell’s faculties are fading, his aston-ishing guitar prowess remains largely undiminished, as evi-denced by his blazing guitar solo on “In My Arms.”

“He did that solo on the third take,” recalls Raymond. “It was so fast and so amazing. Everybody in the studio was go-ing, ‘Oh my God, did I just hear what I just heard?’ It’s ridicu-lously fast and it’s so good. He’s just that good. I don’t know what to say.”

So far, Campbell is in good physical shape. The tour has moved back to the States for dates stretching, perhaps opti-mistically, well into 2012. Despite slightly slurred speech and diffi culty with his memory, his mood remains tremendously upbeat.

“He wakes up every day so happy,” says Kim, who now acts as her husband’s spokesperson since one-on-one interviews have become increasingly stressful. “I wish I were more like him.”

Goodman, who has not studied Campbell’s case, speculates that his skills may be a combination of procedural memo-ries – such as riding a bicycle – and deeply ingrained musical memories through which the ability to play, sing and interpret songs remains intact as a result of some yet-to-be-explained neurological process.

“It’s impossible to say how long [Campbell] will be able to do this,” Goodman says. “The progression of Alzheimer’s isn’t linear. Eventually, of course, he’ll deteriorate to the point that his musical skills will also erode. But I can say that what he’s doing now will do him nothing but good in terms of dealing with the disease.”

Although Campbell has some diffi culty with spoken lan-guage, his music speaks for him. He closes each show with a new song, “A Better Place,” which packs all the emotional punch of Johnny Cash’s musical epitaph, “Hurt.”

I’ve tried and I have failed, Lord,I’ve won and I have lost.I’ve lived and I have loved, Lord,Sometimes, at such a cost.

Some days I’m so confused, Lord,My past gets in my way.I need the ones I love, Lord,More and more each day.

One thing I know,The world’s been good to me.A better place,Awaits you’ll see. ■

A HEALING MELODYHere are a few very simple recommendations

anyone can follow for using music therapeutically with loved ones suffering from Alzheimer’s:

■ Live music. Patients in the early stages of de-mentia may enjoy being taken to concerts. Also, you may consider inviting a musician or very small group of performers to your home.

■ Recorded music. Listening to recorded music is somewhat less engaging than listening to live music because, unlike live music, it doesn’t pro-vide visual stimulation. It does, however, have the advantage of being available any time.

■ Singalong. In memory-care facilities, the most common type of musical activity is the singalong. For patients living at home, singalongs with fam-ily and friends can be fun and effective.

■ Individual patient performances. Because they require no musical talent or experience, drums, tambourines or other simple percussion instru-ments may be given to patients to play in addi-tion to, or instead of, singing.

Whether listening to live performances or re-cordings, choose whatever type of music the patient liked most before he or she contracted Alzheimer’s. So you might play Ella Fitzgerald for one patient and Bach for another.

To avoid overstimulating or making the patient agitated, avoid loud, dissonant or frenetic-sound-ing music. Also be careful to avoid sad music that patients may connect to some specifi c event in their past.

The Wonder Years

They’re savvy, they’re demanding and they account for

25 percent of the population. When you consider the impact that baby boomers have had on politics and

pop culture, it comes as no surprise that they’re now helping to shape the future of homebuilding.

More than 76 million baby boomers, defined as those born between 1946 and 1964, are retiring or quickly nearing retire-ment age. Because the youngest boomers turn 65 in 2029, their influence isn’t waning anytime soon.

Whether they choose a smaller new home within an active-adult community, or to splurge and upsize with a luxurious estate home, this generation is definitely not headed to your grandparents’ retirement village.

Homebuilders already knew boomers were smart and usually had cash on hand, even after the downturn. “A staggering amount,” says Rick Covell, president of Kolter Homes, who estimates that nearly 75 percent of boomers pay cash for their homes.

“These people didn’t get in that position by being unin-formed,” adds Covell, who has spent the last 15 years develop-ing active-adult communities throughout Florida. So, not un-expectedly, boomers do their homework before making buying decisions.

“When buyers come through the door, they know everything about the product,” Covell says. “In most cases they know more about the product than the salespeople. They’ve done their re-search.”

Research has armed boomer buyers with the tools to de-mand more from builders – more options, more choices, more upgrades.

According to the National Association of Home Builders, boomers have driven such trends as home offices, flex space, media centers, better lighting, bigger windows and aging-in-place features such as wider doors and hallways and first-floor bedrooms and bathrooms.

Two developers, Kolter and Avatar Properties, lead the initia-tive to tap the baby boomer market locally.

For more than 10 years, Avatar’s Solivita has defined the region’s active-adult lifestyle. The 4,300-acre master-planned community, located in Poinciana, has been named one of America’s best active-adult communities by Where to Retire magazine.

And “active” is what Solivita is all about. The community of-fers more than 120 clubs, ranging from scrapbooking to yoga to veteran’s affairs, along with two award-winning champion-ship golf courses; 14 community pools; two state-of-the-art fit-ness centers; and a Tuscan-style village center with restaurants, an arts-and-crafts studio and a theater.

Inside the gated community are a dozen distinct neighbor-hoods with homes offering an array of amenities and environ-mentally friendly features, including separate dens, large kitchens, swimming pools, outdoor living areas and dual master suites.

Knowing that boomers appreciate flexibility and options, Solivita offers 19 floorplans ranging in size from 1,300 to 3,000 square feet. Prices start in the mid-$100s.

“Boomers didn’t come from cookie-cutter homes, and they don’t want to retire in one either,” says Lauren Leetun, a spokes-person for the project.

Solivita was named the world’s first “Younger Next Year” com-munity for its focus on “turning the clock back.” The initiative, based on criteria from a popular 2005 wellness book of the same name, encourages residents to incorporate activity, community, healthy eating and physical fitness into their daily routines.

A staff of fitness trainers, activity managers and chefs helps residents meet their wellness goals.

In DeLand, Kolter is the developer behind Victoria Park, a 5,000-acre, master-planned development. Kolter, which has built several 55-plus communities in South Florida, purchased the project from The St. Joe Company in late 2009.

Within Victoria Park lies Victoria Gardens, a gated active-adult community. Lead builder Shea Homes offers floorplans that feature plenty of natural light, large great rooms for enter-taining and “smart spaces,” which are rooms that can be used for arts and crafts or a home office. Homes, ranging in size from 1,436 to 3,236 square feet, are priced from the mid-$100s to $289,990.

The community offers a full array of activities, with a 2,500-square-foot clubhouse, a pool, an arts-and-crafts room, a fit-ness facility, a media center and a ballroom with daily buffets and themed dinners.

Project Manager Carol Duchscher says Victoria Gardens residents are very specific about the types of amenities they want. If something is missing, they aren’t shy about asking

that it be added.“most of our residents are active and very energetic,” duch-

scher adds. “They’re asking for a pickle-ball court. It’s a takeoff of badminton and tennis.”

del Webb, part of the Pulte Homes family, has focused on retirement communities since 1960. Today the company boasts more than 50 projects in 20 states. In central florida, del Webb Stone creek in ocala and del Webb orlando in davenport each offer several single-family options for active adults.

“over and over we’ve seen that these buyers are looking for

more than a place to live,” says Sean Strickler, vice president of sales, Pulte Homes north florida division. “del Webb com-munities are full of clubs and activities where neighbors can become best friends.”

del Webb Stone creek is a guard-gated community centered on reflection Bay, a 29-acre recreation complex encompassing a state-of-the-art fitness center, indoor and outdoor heated pools, tennis courts and bocce ball courts. residents also enjoy an 18-hole championship golf course and 4 miles of walking trails.

The gated community offers 14 two- and three-bedroom

floorplans ranging in size from 1,157 to 2,611 square feet. Prices range from the $150s to the low $200s.

Although Del Webb Orlando doesn’t offer golf, it features a brand-new, 30,800-square-foot clubhouse and offers many of the same amenities as its sister community in Ocala. Homes range in size from 1,515 to 2,238 square feet and are priced from the $160s to the $250s.

In Lake County, Shea and Lennar Homes have created their own active-adult communities.

Shea offers Trilogy, a community in Groveland, which features a 57,000-square-foot clubhouse, an indoor/out-door pool, a restaurant and a fitness center. Single-family homes at Trilogy start at $124,900.

In Clermont, Lennar has opened Heritage Hills, a community that takes advantage of the area’s rolling topogra-phy. A hilltop gazebo offers a spectacu-lar view of the nightly fireworks show staged by Walt Disney World.

There’s even an on-site vineyard with a Bordeaux room, a 21,000-square-foot clubhouse, a fitness center, a golf simula-tor, a craft studio, and a pool and spa.

Mark Methany, president of Lennar’s Central Florida division, says the big-gest draw for Heritage Hills buyers is the company’s villa product line – single-story, detached homes with about 1,200 square feet.

“They’re choosing smaller homes that they don’t have to spend as much time maintaining,” Methany says. “We’re seeing a lot of customers who like to upgrade their homes with granite and stainless steel, but smaller square foot-age is important.”

Centerline Homes has found success with boomer buyers by focusing on three key areas: the home’s entertain-ment area, its master suite and the rela-tionship of key spaces to the outdoors.

“Each home includes a large kitchen that can accommodate several people,” says Deb Marton, vice president of sales.

Del Webb Orlando in Davenport offers lakeside walking trails and a new 30,800-square-foot clubhouse encompassing a state-of-the-art fitness center. Del Webb, a division of Pulte Homes, has a second active-adult community, Del Webb

Stone Creek, in Ocala. Both emphasize social and recreational activities.

“The kitchen opens onto another large living space. From there, it flows out to the courtyard and/or pool area. It’s a great place for entertaining, whether it’s a party for four or 40.”

Centerline’s Eagle Creek in Southwest Orlando offers small-er, “jewel box” homes that include top-of-the-line luxuries and appeal to older boomers. For younger boomers who want to upsize, there’s an estate-home collection featuring larger, golf-front homes with up to 5,000 square feet of living space.

Marton says she knows that boomers can get what they want

– so if they don’t offer it, buyers will find it someplace else. “Our approach to boomers is simple: to offer a variety of beautiful homes that are designed just for them, in prestigious commu-nities that offer the amenities they want.”

As more boomers settle into retirement, Covell predicts they’ll continue to demand more from builders as their needs change.

“Boomers are shaping the industry because they’re buying now,” he says. “And because they’re buying, they’re causing builders to really, really listen to them and to build what they want.” n



Thad Seymour, 83Originally from: New York City

n Family: Thad and his wife, Polly, who recently cele-brated their 63rd wedding anniversary, have five children and 11 grandchildren. Both his father and father-in-law were national celebrities: Whitney North Seymour served in the Hoover Administration and later was president of the American Bar Association; John Gnagy taught mil-lions to draw in the 1950s and ’60s with his long-running television program, You Are an Artist, and his Learn to Draw instructional book, which is still in print.

n Former career: Best known as the former presi-dent of Rollins College (from 1978 to 1990), he actu-ally had a longer career at Rollins as an English profes-sor – teaching there from 1992 until 2008, the year he turned 80. “I concluded that the gap between 18 and 80 was more than I could handle.” His pre-Rollins resumé included stints as English professor, rowing coach and later dean of students at Dartmouth College; president

of Wabash College in Indiana; and membership in the International Brotherhood of Magicians.

n current activities: Once an elite college row-er – he competed in the U.S. rowing trials for the 1948 Olympics – Thad stays in shape with regular mile-long walks and gym workouts on cardiovascular and weight machines. His even busier volunteer life includes serving as chairman of Habitat for Humanity’s Winter Park-Mai-tland chapter, membership on the advisory committee of the Independent Transportation Network-Orlando – “The biggest single challenge for older adults is trans-portation” – and helping Polly with her main passion, the Winter Park Library’s New Leaf Bookstore. Co-founded by Polly in 1995, it has raised more than $1 million for the public library. Its webpage is maintained by Thad, a computer (and Facebook) enthusiast.

Eve Brinson, 88 Originally from: Berlin, Germany

n Family: A Berlin resident at the end of World War II, Eve met and married Master Sergeant John L. Brinson, who remained on active duty until 1959. During his military career the couple – who never had children – were stationed in numerous spots in the United States and overseas, in-cluding Kentucky, Turkey, Mississippi, France and Guam. When he retired the couple moved to Orlando, where Eve has lived ever since. Widowed in 1985, she has two sisters, both of whom live in Germany.

n Former career: In Orlando, Eve spent 17 years as a medical tech-nologist at Sunland Center, the state facility that cared for the mentally and physically disabled. She also was a Red Cross swimming instructor. Be-fore coming to Orlando, she did a 1½-year stint as a grade-school teacher when she and her husband were sta-tioned in Guam.

n current activities: Eve is an active volunteer at the 1st Unitari-an Church of Orlando, working once or twice a week for its fundraising thrift store. She plays bridge at least twice a week, including hosting a weekly game at her lakefront home. She only recently retired from a 15-year volunteer job as a guide at Leu Gardens. “The memory is still there, but it’s slow. Ask me the name of a flower and I know it, but it takes me 10 minutes to say it. As a guide that’s not very good.”

n Words oF Wisdom: “Get off your butt. I’m so disgusted with older people who sit there and don’t do anything. Do crossword puzzles; play cards; join a book club. Join something – you have to have con-tact with other people.”

n Former career: A base-ball star in high school and college, Charlie spent most of World War II in the Air Force as a physical-train-ing instructor. After the war he spent a decade as a high school baseball and football coach and another two decades as a middle-school history teacher. When he retired from teach-ing in 1976, he weighed 226 pounds – 80 pounds more than he weighs now. He started jogging in 1978.

n current activities: Active in the Methodist Church, Charlie is best known as one of the world’s top age-group triathletes. His age-group victories include winning the 70-and-over division at the 1992 Ironman World Championship Tri-athlon in Kona, Hawaii, and winning the 85-89 age group at the 2005 In-ternational Triathlon Union World Championship in Honolulu. Last summer in Clermont he became the oldest male competitor to fin-ish a USAT-sanctioned duathlon, a race that starts with a 1-mile run, fol-lowed by a 10-mile bike portion and a finishing run of 3 miles. “I want to try to stay in top shape so I can con-tinue to compete in triathlons and duathlons. I plan to keep competing as long as my body will let me.”

n Words oF Wisdom: “I’m 91, and people ask me, ‘Why do you punish your body?’ I tell them, ‘So I can become 92.’ I never say, ‘Take it easy’ to anybody; I think that’s what kills people. I say, ‘Step it up.’ When you’re over the hill, you pick up speed.”



Few decisions are as confusing, emotionally wrenching and fraught with pitfalls as those related to the care of an aging parent or loved one. While it may be easier to put off thinking about it until later, the earlier you begin your research, the easier the process will be. Learn about the different types of senior housing, what choices may be best for you and how

to navigate the emotional roadblocks that come with making smart choices. Waiting until you’re forced to act quickly only makes the process that much more difficult. On the following pages is a selective directory of active adult communities, assisted living facilities, elder law, estate planning, funeral homes, health plans, hospitals, homemaker and companion services, nurse registries, nursing homes, orthopedic surgeons and hospice care services. Providers who have shown a special interest in reaching Forever Young readers through advertising are highlighted.
