Sara Adkins and friends
S u rro u n d e d by family
members and friends, Sara
Adkins celebrated her 100th
birthday at a party held at the
St. Patrick's Senior Center last
Saturday, Feb. 18.
"I made it, I didn't think I
would,” Adkins said, who
resisted having a fuss made
about a birthday celebration.
However this very feisty lady
says she "can't complain” as
her very alert mind recalls a
century of changes. For in
stance there were pictures
revealing a prior mode of
transportation via a motorcycle.
She recalls that once she was
going a little too fast and had
a motorcycle accident while at
tempting to take a turn. Even
though she was pregnant with
her only child at that time, she
claims the accident w asn't
serious.
Adkins has been a Heppner
area resident since about 1924.
Her grandsons, who lived in
the Portland area, used to
spend their summers with their
grandmother. Since Adkins
claims that fishing and hunting
were some of her favorite
pastim es, these grandsons
rem em bers lots of fishing
forays.
Sara's friends also recall that
Sara seldom missed the oppor
tunity to play cards or bingo at
the Heppner Elks Lodge in
former times. However family
needs usually had precedence.
There are now three grand
children, four great grand
children and a great-great
granddaughter.
Adkins was highly com
plimentary on the quality of
care she now receives at the
Pioneer Memorial Hospital
Nursing Home. She also com
mented on the volunteers like
Irene Anthom, who makes life
there enjoyable by playing the
piano for residents.

Acute low back pain (located in
the small of the back) is one of the
most common reasons for physi
cian visits. In the U.S. the annual
cost of caring for low back pain is
about $20 billion.
Typically low back pain is
caused by excess physical activity,
such as moving heavy objects.
Sometimes back muscles become
contracted due to dehydration
from excess sweating. Low back
pain can be so intense that emer
gency care may be required. Re
cently the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services has
released new guidelines to aid in
the treatment of this type of pain.
The guidelines are designed to
move away from prolonged
therapy. There is an emphasis on
getting persons back to work and
other normal activities as soon as
possible. Five featuresof the guide
lines include:
