Entry for: Wendi

Wednesday, March 31st, 2010

I am writing on behalf of my best friend.  Wendi is 31 years old, and at her young age she has already battled and courageously beaten breast cancer.  Her mom died of breast cancer at age 24, and after Wendi had her first daughter she was diagnosed at age 25.  She opted to have a bilateral mastectomy and full reconstructive surgery at that time.  After the birth of her second daughter, the cancer came back and she underwent several more surgeries, removing much of her back muscle on one side. 

She completed her final reconstructive surgery this year, and on top of being a mother of her two girls (4 and 7 years old), she also watches my 20 month old son, her sister’s 3 year old son, and her cousin’s 6 month old son during the week. 

She manages to juggle all of this while still taking online classes towards obtaining her nursing degree.  She is such an inspiration to manage so much and yet have such great patience with the kids and such an optimistic attitude for life.  She always tries to do fun and creative things with the kids during the week, and is usually busy in the evenings and weekends running her daughters to basketball, cheerleading, gymnastics, etc. 

I often wonder how she does it all and would very much appreciate your consideration in offering her the Total Mom Rejuvenation treatments because she never takes time to do anything for herself.  Getting a haircut is about all the “free” time she allows herself! :)   Submitted by: Kristie

 My mom really deserves and needs a Med Spa getaway.  It has been a rough couple of years for her.  In June 2008, she got a new job.   Three days into her new job, she got a call that her dad, my grandpa, had a stroke.  She immediately left her new job and came home to be with him.  She stayed at the hospital with him everyday.  Based on some tests, her dad was told he had a form of lung cancer, small cell carcinoma, that did not have a very high survival rate even though he never smoked.  She went with him to the oncologist and through another round of biopsies only to find out that he had sarcoidosis.  My mom then researched sarcoidosis and found a world renowned specialist for my grandpa in his city and she takes him to his appointments so she can make sure he is following the doctor’s orders.  
In July 2009, my father was laid off from his job where he worked for 20 years.  He has since gotten a new job but it was a stressful time.
In October 2009, my mom was working out at the gym when she started not feeling well.  She thought she was coming down with the flu but turns out it was a heart attack.  She drove herself to St. Vincent’s heart hospital because my dad had left to go out of town for work a few hours before.  She came through that very well through hard work at cardiac rehab and is now back at the gym and playing soccer.  They could give her no reason for why she had a heart attack at age 46 other than heredity, she was adopted and does not know her family history.  She barely had time to recover herself when her mother became ill.  
In December of 2009, her mother went in for a routine procedure and subsequently caught various infections while in the hospital.  On March 3, she and my grandfather had to make the decision to place my grandma in hospice.  My grandma died on March 12, 2010.  My mother, being the only child, made all arrangements and was very strong for my grandpa.  My grandparents were married 53 years and my grandpa was pretty upset.  While her mother was dying, my mom was down there constantly to be with my grandpa and she is driving to Cincinnati at least twice a week to be with him to make sure he is fine.  
As you can see, my mom has had a lot of stress in the last year or so and a Med Spa getaway would be the perfect Mother’s Day gift so she can be the one taken care of instead of taking care of everyone else.  Submitted by: Betsy

Get Smooth – at a Great Price. Get Laser Hair Removal at Ology!

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

Summer is coming …. Be smoooooth.  Laser Hair Removal continues to be one of our most requested treatments at Ology Spa Indianapolis! 

Now is the time to start – and with both BBL and Laser treatments available, Ology is able to target hair removal and deliver results from your first treatment.

Plan for success by following these absolutely essential rules:

1. NO MORE plucking hairs from today forward!  By plucking hairs out, you will interrupt the growth cycle prematurely – and will set your treatments back by 6 weeks.  Don’t waste your money or your time – no plucking!

2.  Avoid sun exposure on the treated area.  A ‘perfect’ target for the laser is a dark hair on a light skin surface.  While we can and do successfully treat lighter hair and darker skin, the treatment duration is longer.  We’re not able to maximize the laser’s energy and keep you safe  unless you commit to keeping the treated area out of the sun, and away from self-tanners.

3.  Commit to the schedule!  Your treatments will be scheduled at very specific intervals for a reason – we need to stay on schedule with your natural hair growth patterns.  As much as possible – stick to the schedule.  This will ensure you complete your treatment in the shortest time frame possible.

Safe, effective treatments in a private, upscale location – and now at a great price!  What are you waiting for?  Come in, call – or email us today at info@ologymd.com for your complimentary consultation.
