Kitterman Woods Residents Florida Arts & Dance Company (FADC) students are filled with the spirit of the season as they prepare to present the holiday classic, “The Nutcracker” at the Lyric Theatre in Stuart. For months, students have been working with instructors to perfect choreography for the show which brings the audience on a magical journey filled with sweet treats and waltzing snowflakes.

FADC students are joined by guest artists from Russian Ballet Orlando to perform “The Nutcracker” on Friday, December 14 at 7:00 pm and Saturday, December 15 at 2:00 pm and 7:00 pm at the Lyric Theatre in downtown Stuart. On Sunday, December 16 at 3:00 pm, FADC students perform “The Gentle Nutcracker” a shortened version of the show with subdued lights and sound for those who are sensory sensitive or those with young children.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Kitterman Woods wants to spread the word about mammograms and encourage communities, organizations, families, and individuals to get involved.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide and the second-most common cancer overall. In 2016, an estimated 246,660 cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed in the U.S. alone.

Due to the use of regular mammography screening, most breast cancers in the U.S. are found at an early stage, before warning signs appear. However, not all breast cancers are found through mammography.

The warning signs of breast cancer are not the same for all women. The most common signs are a change in the look or feel of the breast, a change in the look or feel of the nipple and nipple discharge. Consult your doctor if you have any of these signs.

Prevention is the best tool for fighting breast cancer or any cancer for that matter. Lifestyle changes have been shown in studies to decrease breast cancer risk even in high-risk women. The following are steps you can take to lower your risk:

Limit alcohol: The more alcohol you drink, the greater your risk of developing breast cancer, limit yourself to less than 1 drink per day as even small amounts increase risk.

Don’t smoke: Accumulating evidence suggests a link between smoking and breast cancer risk, particularly in premenopausal women.

Control your weight: Being overweight or obese increases the risk of breast cancer.

Be physically active: Physical activity can help you maintain a healthy weight, which, in turn, helps prevent breast cancer.

Breast-feed: Breast-feeding might play a role in breast cancer prevention. The longer you breast-feed, the greater the protective effect.

Eat a Healthy Diet: Eating a healthy diet might decrease your risk of some types of cancer, as well as diabetes, heart disease and stroke.

Early Detection: Be vigilant about breast cancer detection. If you notice any changes in your breasts, such as a new lump or skin changes, consult your doctor. Also, ask your doctor when to begin mammograms and other screenings based on your personal history.

So no matter who you are, understanding breast cancer is important. But the most important thing to know is this: a diagnosis is not a death sentence. Breast cancer can be treated.

National Breast Cancer Awareness Month is a chance to raise awareness about the importance of early detection of breast cancer. Make a difference!

And Always Always FIGHT LIKE A GIRL!!!

Here are some quick fall cleaning tips for our residents at Kitterman Woods.

Tip 1: Two areas need special attention before the start of the holiday cooking and baking marathon: The outside of the cabinets and the inside of the fridge. Using paper towels or a clean dishcloth, rub wood cabinets with oil soap, and wipe knobs and pulls with straight vinegar. Completely empty the fridge and do a thorough cleaning with soapy dishwater or all-purpose spray cleaner. Take out the bins and wash in the sink with soapy water … but watch the temperature. Hot water can crack the plastic. Dry and line them with a paper towel before putting them back in.

Tip 2: Drag a step stool over to the fridge.  Armed yourself with all-purpose cleaner and paper towels, scrub the top to get rid of built-up grime. Go through your pantry and gather up all the unopened food you know you won’t use to give to your local food pantry. (Anything you donate before the end of the year is a tax write-off.) While you’re at it, toss out any spices that have overstayed their welcome; check online for how long specific spices keep their potency.

Tip 3: It’s time to face whatever’s lurking behind all your heavy furniture. Move everything away from the wall and wash the baseboards with oil soap. (The room will smell great!) Use a magic sponge to remove scuff marks from the walls. Vacuum behind the curtains and between the cushions.

Tip 4: Change out summer bedding and curtains for colder-weather ones. Wash everything before you store it for the season; dirty clothes can attract insects. Bring out your fall and winter clothes, but before you put away your summer stuff, go through it carefully. Store only the things you loved wearing this past season, and donate the rest. And if you haven’t done it in the past year, clean the carpet — including inside the closets.

Tip 5: Last but not least: Take down your lighting fixtures and ceiling fans, and see what’s been living inside them all summer. Bugs and spiders love it up there (guaranteed you’ll find a web or two), so give your fixtures a good wiping and cleaning.
