STEEL MAGNOLIAS
Six soft-hearted "magnolias" with steely dispositions gather regularly at Truvy’s House of Beauty, the unofficial hub of Chinquapin, Louisiana, to chat with, counsel, criticize and comfort one another. The wise-cracking Truvy, with the help of her new glamour technician, Annelle, dispenses liberal doses of shampoo, hairspray, free advice and gossip to the town’s rich curmudgeon, Ouiser, Miss Clairee, and the local social worker, M’Lynn, whose daughter, Shelby, is on the verge of marriage. The play visits these women over the course of two years in which together they experience love, joy, pain, and death. True to their southern roots, these women survive the toughest of times with their hearts and sense of humor intact. One thing is for sure. STEEL MAGNOLIAS will steal your heart!

Planning a Special Delivery? Know your Birthi
Join us for an evening of discussion about labor and delivery options with Dr. Sara A. Roberts and Dr. Eric C. Berg, physicians on the medical staff at Texas Health Allen, and Aliza Chikaiban, RN, CNM. The talk is part of the Advances in Medicine lecture series. Having a baby is not like what your grandmother experienced. Or even your mother. Whether it’s your first or you’ve been through it before, you’ll want to find out about the latest options you have during labor and delivery. For instance, what about a midwife? What about pain management? What about breastfeeding? Learning your options can help make the experience as rewarding as it can be. | Texas Health Presbyterian Allen

Forever Angels Benefit Pageant
Rett Syndrome is a devastating childhood neurological disorder with no cure and is the leading genetic cause of severe impairment in females. It strikes at random and deprives little girls of speech, normal movements, and hand use, bends their spines and weakens their bones. It brings seizures, breathing and swallowing difficulties, blood pressure and heart rate instability. It leaves its victims profoundly disabled and dependent on others for every basic need.
I'm proud to say in the past 2 years we have been able to raise over $5,800.00 for the International Rett Syndrome Foundation. With your help researchers are one step closer in finding a cure.
