       <title>A Complementary Therapy in the Treatment of Cancer</title>
       <link>http://www.north-olmsted-ohio.com/versagilmt/index.html</link>
       <description>While experiencing the journey of cancer it is important to treat not only the body, but the mind and spirit, as well. I address the scarring and discomfort issues while also cultivating the mind-body connection as the patient heals. Cancer is a chronic disease that is no longer a death sentence. Many people live for years after developing cancer, and my role is to nurture, soothe, and comfort the patient as their body heals. Through oncology massage, patients gain a sense of empowerment that enables them to take control of the direction of their lives and the healing process.</description>

       <title>Senior Living at Its Finest</title>
       <link>http://www.north-olmsted-ohio.com/ourhouseinc/index.html</link>
       <description>Our House has been caring for the Westshore community's older adults since the late 1970s. At that time the only options available to older adults were either living at home or moving into a nursing home. When Mattie Maran founded Our House in November 1978, area seniors gained the opportunity to join a community of their peers where they could stay independent, stay involved, and continue to live their lives to the fullest. Since 2000 Our House has been owned and operated by Mattie's daughter, Marguerite L. Van Derwyst, while Mattie continues to enjoy the good life at Our House as a resident. We met with Marguerite and Office Manager Corey Niebes recently, and listened as they provided this overview of Our House's services and offerings;</description>
