Sunny Skies

All I can say is WOW! 

I am busy helping people find their new homes, thinking of how grateful I am for the value you bring to my real estate business. While looking around out in the world, I see blue skies emerging, and the recent cold days will soon be only a memory.  It looks like Spring has sprung. For many across the country, it’s still cold, grey, and snowy! It very well could hail and snow more in the foothills around LA. But one thing is for sure, this winter season is coming to an end. It does every year without fail.

Just like the weather seasons come and seasons go, so do the seasons of life. I’m sure you have noticed as I have the older I get the faster they move by. These “seasons of life” go by so fast, my hope is that you enjoy each one. Yes, some will be hot and others will be cold highs and lows. The lows we want to move by quickly, the highs we want to stay in forever sometimes.

Please know that my team and I are eager to help anyone you know wanting to make a move. So much so that we are willing to make an offer that your referrals will LOVE – AND – the Kids at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles will love too. 

Your referrals help the kids!

They also lead the way in helping kids come back from spinal cord injuries as well as early diagnosis of autism. Last year alone, Children’s helped over 1,000,000 kids right here in Los Angeles. BUT, Children’s relies on sponsorships and donations to provide their elite level of care, and to keep families’ expenses to a minimum. So YOUR REFERRALS REALLY DO HELP THE KIDS…

Why I support ChildrenĘźs Hospital Los Angeles

I grew up right here in the Greater Los Angeles Area, born in Los Angeles County at St. Francis Hospital. I remember when I first heard about a young person close to our family suffering from a nasty disease and getting treated for that at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. It was then that I began to pay closer attention to the work they do at that hospital. Since then, I have learned that it is a collection of hard-working health care professionals, most making their home right here in the Los Angeles area, all coming together for a common cause. That cause is to help young people overcome unfortunate health issues that life sometimes throws our way. Being a Los Angeles Area California native, I take pride in supporting in a way that I can do the good work these people do at Children’s. My team rallies around our annual goal of raising money and donating portions of our income to help Children’s in their quest to heal young people when they need healing. My team and I are committed to providing outstanding results for buyers and sellers referred to us by our past clients. I have discovered that Children’s Hospital Los Angeles shares a similar commitment to their patients. And since their services survive on sponsorships and donations, we are happy to contribute and proud to support them.

Sincerely,

Corey Chambers

Hitting All The Right Notes

Melody, who was born with amniotic band syndrome, embraces her uniqueness and shines in the spotlight. | by Monica Rizzo

Story and photos courtesy Children’s Hospital Los Angeles

She’s timid with people one-on-one, but when it comes time to sing the National Anthem at LoanMart Field, home of minor league baseball’s Rancho Cucamonga Quakes, 11-year-old Melody oozes confidence and belts out the tune like an old pro. It’s because, she says matter-of-factly, “I’ve been singing all my life.”

Music, it turns out, has been a constant for Melody from the time she was in her mother Jackylin’s womb. Her father, Jesus, is a DJ and talented musician, Jackylin explains.

“I would tag along to whatever club he was DJ-ing at as well as go to concerts and bars to hear bands play. We were surrounded by music all the time, so as soon as we found out we were having a girl, we knew she had to be named Melody,” Jackylin says, noting that her pregnancy was nothing short of harmonious—until the day her daughter was born.

“I had a C-section and when they delivered her, they called Jesus over to show him that she was missing some fingers and toes,” Jackylin says. “They brought her to me, and I was so emotional. All day I kept going over in my head ‘what did I do wrong during the pregnancy?’ I was getting ultrasounds and pictures and nothing indicated anything was wrong with her development.”

Learning about hand differences

Jackylin and Jesus learned soon after their daughter’s birth that Melody had amniotic band syndrome (also known as constriction ring syndrome), a rare congenital condition where string-like bands of tissue from the amniotic sac entangle a developing fetus and like a lasso, the bands wrap around fingers and toes. The non-preventable condition affects one in 15,000 births each year.

A referral led the family to drive an hour from their Inland Empire home to Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, where they took 3-month-old Melody to meet with Nina Lightdale-Miric, MD, Director of the Pediatric Hand and Upper Extremity Surgery Program at the Jackie and Gene Autry Orthopedic Center.

“Parents want information and they want to understand how this happened, what it means and if their child is going to be OK,” Dr. Lightdale-Miric says. “I explained the condition to them and that it is random, that it is something completely healthy children can be born with. They weren’t expecting this, they didn’t plan for this, so I gave them information to help them understand and anticipate what’s next and feel confident and safe.”

“We were immediately impressed with Dr. Lightdale-Miric,” Jackylin says.

A supportive community

Ever since Melody was a baby, the family has participated in events with the CATCH (Center for Achievement of Teens and Children with Hand Differences) program. Created in 2011 and led by Dr. Lightdale-Miric, the donor-funded program is the only one of its kind in the country and has provided resources, mentorship and support for more than 300 families and patients with hand and upper limb differences through informational presentations and recreational gatherings. Meeting and speaking with other families whose children have hand and upper limb differences has put Melody’s family more at ease and paved the way to some long-lasting friendships.

Melody with her family – Mom, Jackylin, Father, Jesus, and brother Jesse

“Parents come to us with concerns of how to raise a child with a hand or upper limb difference to not be shy or ashamed or isolated,” Dr. Lightdale-Miric says. “Families who participate in CATCH receive guidance and support from our clinical team as well as from other patient families and in turn, that bolsters their self-esteem. They learn that their kids can do so many things—play the piano, ride a bike, become a doctor—they will just do it differently than other people. The community of care and support this program provides is as important as the surgical care, and that’s what differentiates CHLA from other institutions.”

“I learned a lot from the other parents—not to hide Melody’s hands, not to give her special treatment,” Jackylin says. “Since the time she was a baby, we were strict that she needs to do things herself. If she wants to eat, she needs to grab the food. If she wants a toy, she needs to grab it. I think that’s one of the big reasons Melody is the way she is now.” — Story and photos courtesy Children’s Hospital Los Angeles

Unfortunately, many homeowners feel the bind of being ready to enjoy the holiday but trapped with a big task. They are desperate to exit their current loft, condo or house and give themselves a big Christmas Gift – a NEW place to call home.

Here’s how you and I can help. As a result of my team’s work with over 5,000 families over 20 years and three recessions, we have developed a unique program to quickly get an acceptable “cash” offer on any home for market value. So we are giving Home Owners wanting to make a move an extraordinary gift this holiday season. For December, we will guarantee, in writing, the sale of an area home in 30 days at a price acceptable to the homeowner. In the event there is no sale, we’ll pay the homeowner $5,000. The homeowner and I need to agree on the price. We do that starting with a simple, FREE consultation.

Here is what you can do to help!

If anyone you know, including yourself, is considering making a move, we would like to offer them a FREE, No Obligation to Sell for Top Dollar Consultation. On this call, we’ll discuss just how they can make their move, get what they want, and do it with the least hassle.

AND while we are on the phone, I will instantly send over a FREE Special Report titled “Costly Home Seller Mistakes to Avoid When Selling During the Holiday Season.” Just like we are thankful for you and your business, I am confident your referrals will be thanking you for steering them in the right direction on getting their home sold!!!

Heart of Gold

A serious heart defect isn’t stopping Maceo Alvarez from playing his favorite sport—and helping other sick children at the holidays.

Maceo Alvarez likes a lot of sports—but nothing compares with his love for football. “He’s like a football addict,” his mother, Monique Esparza, says.

“You get to catch, you get to run, you get to juke, you get to spin,” says the 8-year-old Monrovia second grader. “You can also jump if they dive for your legs.”

Last fall, for the first time, Maceo got to play on a football team. At the start of the season, he set out with his mom to pick up his gear, including cleats, uniforms and one extra item: special padding to protect his pacemaker.

Monique was admittedly nervous. Maceo not only has a pacemaker, but he’s also undergone 13 surgeries, including six open-heart surgeries, as a result of being born with tricuspid atresia, a rare heart condition in which the tricuspid valve doesn’t develop in the womb. The defect blocks proper blood flow to the lungs and caused the right side of Maceo’s heart to be severely underdeveloped. The tricuspid valve can’t be replaced, so patients undergo a series of surgeries to reroute blood flow through the body. Football—even the flag football Maceo is playing—wasn’t exactly doctor recommended. In fact, it was doctor forbidden. So said Michael Silka, MD, one of Maceo’s cardiologists at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.

“Dr. Silka kept telling him, ‘No, no, no, no, no,’” Monique says.

But Maceo had a counter. His stepdad had told him about D.J. Hayden, a cornerback for the Oakland Raiders who suffered a near-fatal heart injury in college that had to be surgically repaired. So on the next visit to Silka, Maceo came prepared. “D.J. Hayden plays for the Raiders in the NFL and he has a scar just like mine,” he told the doctor. “So I’m playing football.”

Silka eventually relented and Maceo joined a team. What’s more, Maceo and Hayden developed a friendship, after Monique tagged Hayden in an Instagram photo of her son. Hayden responded, and the two have been Facebook friends ever since. This past summer, Maceo spent a day at the Raiders’ training camp in Napa, California, at Hayden’s invitation.

It was Monique’s instinct to say no to her son’s football aspirations as well, but when she saw his excitement at finally being healthy enough to play the game he loves, she couldn’t.

“He’s determined,” she says. “He wants to do everything you tell him he can’t do.”

Although Maceo is doing well, his battles aren’t over. A few months back, he was suffering from a severe lack of energy and sleeping all day. “He just wasn’t himself,” Monique says. “He didn’t want to play football. Didn’t even pick up a football for a few months.”

Maceo had developed pulmonary hypertension, and was put on a new medication to control it. If the medicine doesn’t work, he may ultimately need a heart transplant. Monique says outward signs are positive, though she can’t be sure until another catheterization is done.

“I can’t say 100 percent it’s working, but ever since he’s been on this medication, I can look at him and tell you that he’s in a way better place than he was a few months ago.”

That’s good news not only for Maceo and his family, but also for other heart patients at CHLA, who can expect to again be the recipients of Maceo’s kindness this holiday season. Two years ago on Halloween, as he was being discharged after an inpatient stay, Maceo spotted someone bringing Halloween costumes into the hospital. Happy to learn that the kids in the hospital would be able to have Halloween, it got him thinking ahead.

“How is Santa Claus going to get into the hospital if there’s no chimney?” he asked his mom.

Maceo declared that he would be Santa Claus and bring presents to the hospital. Monique quickly organized a toy drive and returned with Maceo in December with gifts for every child in the Heart Institute. That began what is now an annual holiday event.

“They’re stuck in the hospital, like I was,” Maceo says. “So we’re going to bring Christmas to them.”

What motivates him to do the toy drive each year? He has a succinct answer: “Because I’m helping the kids.”
