ness. "Ever since then, his high blood
pressure has gone down," said Joey.
"I would visit my wife Dorina at
the administration building when she
was working at the superintendent's
office, and noticed that food venders
would come in every once in a while
to sell their goods. I asked my wife if
she taught if I sold something differ
ent then everyone else and did it on a
regular basis, if she felt it would
work for us."
"One afternoon, my wife and I
decided to do a survey. We passed
out forms asking tribal employees if
they would prefer someone to bring
stuff directly to their desks or of
fices," Joey remembers. The survey
results were excellent, with about
95 of the people surveyed, saying
they would. "We started out by go
ing to all tribal offices carrying a
basket with just donuts, juice, fruit,
and vegce's. In the beginning, we
took our 5lh wheel trailer to
Kah-Ncc-Ta when Kah-Nce-Ta was
still fixing things from the flood. We
took a big loss. There were too many
venders there for anyone to make
money," Joey laments.
At times, they would set up the
trailer along highway 26, and by

Surface says, "We found out what
worked best for us was to deliver to
where the people were working. We
decided to work around the Agency
area and bring the goodies to them
instead." Joey remarked that his wife
came up with the idea of using a
see-through cart with wheels and
chest of drawers on t dolly, That has
worked the best so far. "First of all,
the business name Joey's Goodies
came about when I asked my daughter
Aurel to draw a sign for me that
would show donuts, bagels, fruits,
and other stuff drawn on it. When she
was done with the sign, she drew the
name Joey's Goodies above the art
work. It looked good, so we left it
alone and It's been called Joey's
Goodies ever since.
The Surface's business has not
received any grants or loans, and

of the money has come out their own

Symptoms of RSV mimic the
common cold and can include fever,
runny nose and cough. In older chil
dren and adults it is usually seen as
an upper respiratory illness. Most
children recover within 8-15 days.
For children with mild disease, no
specific treatment is necessary other
than to treat the symptoms. Children
with severe disease or symptoms or
bronchiolitis, especially those under
one year of age, sometimes need to
be hospitalized.
