A visit with Bridget Hughes in Southfield MA - Susan's 2nd cousin. Her mother Peggy and my mother Barbara were first cousins - the same age, growing up in DC. Bridget is a massage therapist, pilates and yoga trainer, married to sculptor Jonathan Prince. www.jonathanprince.com BIG sculptures. Bridget busted me out of CR one afternoon for a tour of Edith Wharton's home - The Mount. We walked her 2 Swissies, 100+ pound dogs - Maggie and X (can't remember).
Then off to check in to Canyon Ranch... |

Dave had a medical evaluation including a dexascan, glucose tolerance, and C-reactive protein test as well as physiology and cognitive assessments. We left with plans for how to eat, exercise and think about life going forward. The doctors gave us information not before seen about inflammation, glucose and heart. Dave was advised to reduce carbs and sugars. It's on.
Susan did a parallel program - Yoga, Thai massage, clairvoyant, cooking, counseling, body energy balancing, meditation and exercise classes. We both attended a "healing circle" and a 1.5 hour meditation workshop. Attended lectures on Qigong, metaphysical, physiology, etc. Dave aced the rowing machine tryout. Expect to see one in our gym downstairs shortly.
