HEALTH
CITIMINT
Things tend to come in threes. For that reason, I will do one more article on mnemonics. I used to train Family Practice residents and medical students during their time on the pediatric rotation. There were times when we had patients admitted with complex symptoms and an unclear diagnosis. I created a mnemonic to help approach making the diagnosis. The mnemonic was CITIMINT. I figured that Citibank needed a partner. The letters stand for the 8 major categories of things that can produce an unusual group of symptoms in a pediatric patient. When you are not sure of a diagnosis, it produces a construct to look at things in a consistent manner. The C stands for Congenital. There are many congenital conditions that can cause a wide variety of symptoms. There are congenital abnormalities that might show up later. An abnormally placed coronary artery is one of these. It can cause angina in a young person. The first I is for infectious diseases. They are some of the most common causes of strange symptoms. For example I have seen tuberculosis present as blindness in one child and as quadriplegia in another. Diseases like syphilis, tuberculosis and infectious mononucleosis [...]
CHURCH
The Timmons Family headlines the Connection Cafe
After “making music” up and down the Eastern United States and Canada for years, the Timmons Family now concentrates on singing their country gospel right here on the Eastern Shore. On Sunday, May 19 at 6 p.m. you can catch them at the Connection Café. You’ll enjoy gospel music complete with fiddle, guitars, mandolin, banjo, stand-up base and familial vocal harmonies. Plus you will hear the testimony of Rev. Morris Webster of Tenacious Prayer Warriors (TPW) as he relates how the Lord used His word to stop a bullet meant for his harm and more. Connection Café is a once-a-month live music ministry within Connection Church, 28714 Seaford Rd. in Laurel. There will be light appetizers and no admittance will be charged. For information, contact Kathy.ConnectionCafe@yahoo.com.
Friendly concert features nationally renowned organist
On Friday, May 3, at 7 p.m., St. Peter’s Episcopal Church welcomes world-renowned concert organist Peter Richard Conte in a kid-friendly benefit concert for the St. Peter’s Music Program. Conte is the Grand Court Organist on the world’s largest playing pipe organ–nearly 29,000 pipes–in Macy’s department store (formerly Wanamaker’s), Philadelphia. He is also organist to the Philadelphia Orchestra, organist at Longwood Gardens and at St. Clement’s Church, Philadelphia. Conte’s Salisbury performance includes a short program of light classic transcriptions (music originally written for orchestra arranged for organ by him), including the Overture to Gilbert and Sullivan’s “Yeoman of the Guard,” The Easter Procession scene (“Regina Coeli”) from the opera “Cavalleria Rusticana” by Pietro Mascagni, followed by Robert Elmore’s delightful “Fantasy on Nursery Tunes.” After a brief pause and introduction by [...]
