American Cancer Society Auction

Lorinda's recently donated to a wonderful event held on May 4th for the American Cancer Society. We recieved this wonderful message from Ginny!

 

You are welcome Ginny and we wish you success with your continued work.

 

 

Dear LeeAnn and Lorinda,

I want you to know how VERY appreciative I am of your donation to the American Cancer Society auction on May 4. Your generous contribution of a pedicure (which I personally LOVE) is wonderful! BUT, I was completely overcome that you contributed party favors for our goodie bags for all of our guests! I really didn’t understand what you were saying, so I know I did not respond appropriately. Thank you SO much for thinking of this and even having it all ready to go! It will be such a nice bonus. This has been a very difficult year for this event and we find ourselves behind the pace of last year. So, getting this bonus was incredibly uplifting for me on a personal level.

Thank you very much!

See you this week,

Ginny Eschbach

Personal Message from Lorinda

Hello Friends and Family

As some of you know, I have been struggling with caring for a mentally ill loved one. In my search for answers and help I have joined a 12 week course through the National Alliance for Mental Illness (NAMI). This course has been amazing and given me tools and resource options to help care for my loved one. I wish I had been aware of this years ago when my loved one’s first episodes of suicide, psychotic breaks, mania and depression appeared. 

Mental illness is a horrific brain disorder that has two devastating impacts on the individuals that others cannot see. This impact includes the loss of a natural protective belief that they are exempt from harm and the loss of a predictable and dependable future. These losses create a permanent anxiety disorder of fear. Then they turn to coping strategies that can be hurtful, combative and destructive to protect their self-worth, self-esteem, identity and self-confidence. Many of the behaviors of the people with mental illness do not make sense to their families, refusing to take medication, rejecting family support, community programs, and even disrupting family life. These behaviors are often directly related to their struggle to maintain some dignity and self-respect in the face of the stigma, failure, and shame. The mentally ill can be stuck at the physical age they were when first presented with symptoms.

The people most impacted by these negative, hurtful and destructive behaviors are the caregivers. The parents, siblings, friends, and or family who have chosen not to abandon their sick loved ones. This is a hard and difficult choice and without the correct support and information to help it can leave the caregiver feeling helpless and futile.

It has been my experience that our healthcare system is out of touch and unavailable to the mentally ill and their families. Often times this leads to the severely ill being abandoned and they are left impoverished with no care until something more tragic happens. Let’s remember the victims of Sandy Hook, Colorado and Columbine among the other tragedy’s we have experienced lately and try to help those who are helping the mentally ill!

There IS HOPE!

NAMI is providing that hope. I am so grateful to have found an organization to help me learn how to work with and understand and help my mentally ill family member.

How YOU can help!
The ninth NAMI Walk of Washington will take place on Saturday, May 18, 2013 at Kirkland’s Marina Park.

The walk is the major fundraiser for the National Alliance on Mental Illness affiliates across the state and NAMI Washington. NAMI’s operations, including its extensive education and support programs, are supported almost entirely by volunteers.

The NAMI Walk of Washington also serves to remind people that serious mental illness is not uncommon and that people can recover with the right treatment. The event emphasizes that NAMI exists across Washington to help individuals with serious mental illness and their family members.
Please join with me in supporting this event by following this link and giving generously.
Graciously,
Lorinda Warner

DS Labs Comes to Lorinda's!

April 23, 2012
DS Labs Continued Education

Roger Forbush was the educator updating us on the newest technology and products for hair growth with DS Labs.

Roger Forbush from DS Labs came to Lorinda's to share with and update our team on the latest products and technology for hair growth.

Spectral.DNC-S delivers effectiveness with a better feel. Spectral.DNC-S delivers later-stage hair-recovery effectiveness for both men and women, while maintaining a pleasant texture and a healthy environment for the scalp, unlike formulas with generic minoxidil, which leaves a greasy, sticky residue, and can be irritating for many.
Spectral.DNC-S is a completely new innovation for the treatment of thinning hair. After several years of exhaustive research , DS Laboratories has discovered several compounds from natural sources which mimic and exceed the activity of pharmaceutical treatments but with greatly reduced side effects. These compounds are deployed in a unique cosmetic formulation. It is our most potent and advanced formulation to date and provides an entirely new mechanism of action.
Furthermore, this formulation utilizes powerful ingredients in two separate chambers that enables the use of materials thatg are otherwise not compatible and also a higher concentration of ingredients then a single formulation could hold.

The team at Lorinda's are your hair doctors. If you are experiencing hair loss due to hormones, illness, stress, or for any other multitude of reasons see the team at Lorinda's for your own personal prescription. Hair loss takes time and so does the reverse. Get a before picture courtesy of Lorinda's to follow your own progress.

Roger had a good piece of advice regarding using hair regrowth products. He asked. "Do you use toothpaste just once and expect your teeth to stay clean?" You need to use and continue to use your DS Labs products regularily for best results!
