A new door starts to open, requiring a creation of a new normal. Loss forces us to begin life anew which can be ov …

The "Dancing with the Stars" series has sprouted new and enduring interest in ballroom dancing; health practitioners are promoting dancing as a healthy exercise for physical fitness as well as prevention of dementia and Alzheimers.  I remember the joy at age 11 learning the 2-step (poor man's fox trot?) to "You Belong to Me" and the hesitation waltz to "Tennessee Waltz" at Francisco Jr. High in San Francisco; later the thrill of "getting it" after learning to jitterbug, and still later the mambo …

Our goal is to unite these mommies (preferably of children 5 and younger) for occasional play dates and Persian fun with other children. …
