About 'cardinal home health care'|...purposefully did this to embarrass me among the church elders who I COULD CARE LESS ABOUT, BUT WHO SEEMED TO WISH ME WELL, --as my father said...








When               I               find               myself               in               times               of               trouble
Mother               Mary               comes               to               me
Speaking               words               of               wisdom,               let               it               be
And               in               my               hour               of               darkness
She               is               standing               right               in               front               of               me
Speaking               words               of               wisdom,               let               it               be
from               the               song:               "Let               It               Be"               by               The               Beatles               I'm               an               LA               native.

Born               and               raised               in               the               San               Fernando               Valley.

But               for               the               past               20               years               or               so               I               have               been               residing               on               the               West               Side               of               town               -               and               for               the               last               8               years,               in               sleepy,               cinema-industry-friendly               Culver               City.
               My               initial               introduction               to               Culver               City               was               as               an               attendee               of               the               1st               National               Scholastic               Press               Conference               on               March               21,               1972.

A               dozen               or               so               of               my               fellow               staff               members               of               the               John               F.

Kennedy               High               School               weekly               newspaper               "The               Word,"               rode               a               creaky               bus               from               Granada               Hills               to               interview               then               Vice               President               Spiro               Agnew               (remember               him?),               at               venerable               Veterans               Auditorium.

It               seemed               like               that               old               bus               took               forever               and               that               Culver               City               was               in               another               state.
               Today,               I               realize               that               Culver               City               is               as               much               a               state               of               mind               as               anything               else.

I               want               to               tell               you               about               a               place               up               the               hill               behind               my               home               in               Culver               City.

It's               not               far.

About               a               15-minute,               albeit               strenuous               walk.

I               live               near               the               cross-streets               of               Sepulveda               and               Sawtelle.
               From               my               house,               once               you               pass               the               alley               and               the               coffee               shop,               hair               stylist,               falafel               joint,               TWO               bars,               the               aquarium               store,               the               dry               cleaner               and               hobby               shop...then               cross               the               street               and               pass               the               Jack               in               the               Box               and               El               Rincon               Elementary               School...and               once               you               cross               another               street,               you               begin               a               short               but               challenging               uphill               trek               through               what               is               known               as               Culver               Crest.

Destination:               Marycrest               Manor.
               One               day,               about               two               years               ago,               I               was               taking               this               walk               and               I               happened               to               find               a               turquoise               crucifix               in               the               gutter.

More               spiritual               than               religious,               I               felt               compelled               to               pick               up               the               crucifix,               gently               rub               it               with               my               thumb               to               clean               it               and               then               I               did               something               that               even               surprised               me...I               kissed               it.

I               carried               it               with               me               up               the               hill               and               when               I               reached               Marycrest               Manor               I               knew               just               what               to               do.
               Marycrest               Manor               is               a               skilled               nursing               facility               located               at               10664               Saint               James               Drive               -               at               the               very               top               of               Culver               Crest               -               and               provides               assisted               and               intermediate               care               for               senior               citizens               in               a               religious               atmosphere.

Francis               Cardinal               McIntyre               founded               it               in               1956.

Since               1962,               it               has               been               under               the               direction               and               sponsorship               of               the               Religious               Sisters               of               Charity               from               Ireland.

In               2002,               the               Carmelite               Sisters               of               the               Most               Sacred               Heart               of               Los               Angeles               assumed               sponsorship.
               It               enjoys               a               tranquil               setting               with               spectacular               views               nestled               amidst               a               large               manicured               crop               of               purple               Agapanthas.

As               soon               as               you               enter               the               driveway               a               petite               rose               garden               and               a               statue               of               Mother               Mary               meet               you.

The               statue               belies               her               pacific               charm               as               she               is               symbolically               standing               on               the               neck               of               the               serpent.

We               know               it's               "the"               serpent               of               Adam               and               Eve               because               it               has               an               apple               in               its               mouth.
               There               are               a               few               other               unique               features               of               the               statue:               1)               she               is               completely               flat-chested               so               as               to               exhibit               zero               sexuality,               (which               is               understandable               being               that               she               is               the               Virgin               Mary),               2)               Mary's               right               index               finger               is               missing               (kind               of               like               Jerry               Garcia               of               the               Grateful               Dead),               3)               Mary's               right               big               toe               is               missing               and               4)               Mary's               left               hand               has               been               shattered               and               patched               back               together               again.
               So,               when               I               reached               the               top               of               the               hill               that               day               a               couple               of               years               ago               with               the               turquoise               crucifix,               I               knew               just               what               to               do.

I               humbly               knelt               before               the               statue               and               paid               my               respects.

Despite               being               brought               up               in               a               fairly               religious               and               observant               Jewish               household,               I               was               also               taught               to               respect               all               religions               and               all               faiths               and               have               always               thought               that               it               was               pretty               cool               that               Jesus               was               Jewish.
               So,               I               knelt               before               Mother               Mary               and               I               thanked               her               for               my               blessings.

I               thanked               her               for               my               health.

I               thanked               her               for               my               family.

And               I               thanked               her               for               my               friends.

Then,               I               placed               the               turquoise               crucifix               at               her               feet,               and               as               if               I               was               in               a               synagogue               kissing               the               torah,               I               placed               my               fingers               to               my               lips               and               then               with               those               fingers,               I               gently               touched               her               missing               toe,               missing               finger               and               broken               hand.
               In               subsequent               visits               over               the               past               two               years               I               have               brought               her               more               crucifixes               and               rosary               beads               -               items               I               have               received               in               the               mail               as               the               reward               for               giving               to               a               number               of               charities.
               My               youngest               daughter,               Erika,               who               just               turned               six,               likes               to               accompany               her               papi               from               time               to               time.

When               she               was               just               four               I               would               push               her               in               a               stroller               and               really               get               a               workout               climbing               that               hill.

But               now,               she               walks               by               my               side               and               leaves               flower               petals               at               Mary's               feet               and               copies               how               I               kiss               Mary's               boo-boos.
               One               day               we               noticed               that               the               turquoise               crucifix               was               no               longer               at               Mary's               feet.

We               looked               high               and               low               for               it.

Of               course,               we               are               not               the               only               ones               who               visit               the               statue.

There               are               always               an               assortment               of               rocks               and               plant               life               strewn               at               her               feet               in               her               honor,               as               an               offering               of               sorts.

Recently,               someone               left               her               a               smooth,               pink,               glass               object...but               alas;               our               turquoise               crucifix               is               gone.
               At               first               I               was               shocked               and               upset               that               someone               would               take               this               from               the               feet               of               Mother               Mary,               but               Erika               said,               "Daddy,               I'll               bet               the               person               who               lost               it               in               the               first               place               found               it               here               and               took               it               back."               I               smiled               at               Erika               and               said,               "I'll               bet               you're               right."               And               then               we               both               knelt               and               kissed               Mary's               boo-boos               and               silently               I               thanked               her               for               all               my               blessings.
