Letter from Ivanhoe's President
Thanks for Thanksgiving!
Blending two families is always a risky business but I am so thankful that mine and my husband's get along so well once a year when we gather for Thanksgiving. Linda Lorrier does almost all of the cooking with some help from her brother, Byron. I do the flowers, tables, chairs etc and it all rolls out pleasantly and sort of on time for the 22 people who join us. I love every minute of it!

- Dr Amber Shane, DPM, , Foot and Ankle Surgeon at Orlando Foot and Ankle Clinic, used a revolutionary technique to save a young woman's achilles tendon. It is a fascinating story with such a happy ending.
