T
hree years ago Dr. Michael Kambourakis, founder
and president of the Dominican Republic Relief
Organiz-ation (DRRO) and owner of Terzako Furs in
Caldwell, dreamed of building a health clinic to help impov-erished Dominicans and Haitians living in the Dominican
Republic.
With the clinic 80 percent completed, Kambourakis is
reaching out to others to make that dream a reality. The
DRRO Dinner Dance is set for Thurs., Nov. 12, 6:30 p.m. to11 p.m., at The Grove in Cedar Grove, to honor two interna-
tional humanitarians and raise the remaining dollars to com-
plete the clinic.
“Come to the dinner dance fundraiser,” says
Kambourakis, “to help us out. This is the best cause; it’s
from heart to heart. We are going to deliver American healthon a day to day basis to people down there.”
The theme of the dinner dance event is "Daring to
Dream" based on how Kambourakis, and his two honorees -
international humanitarians Dr. Ernani Sadural and Dr.
Karien Ziegler, all began their humanitarian work with adream, a dream to make a difference by saving lives. Dinner,
dancing and a silent auction will be held.
Sadural serves as the director of Global Health at Saint
Barnabas Healthcare; and Ziegler is chair of Rotary
International Polio Plus Eradication.A third-generation business owner of Terzako Furs in
Caldwell for the past 40 years, Kombourakis always had “apassion for fashion,” and also studied to be a psychologist.
But it was about 12 years ago, since 2004, when he began
missionary work in Santo Domingo and Haiti, building
schools, refurbishing toilets and providing clean water in hishumanitarian efforts to improve the lives of thousands for
Local Business Man Helps ThousandsIn Mission To Build Health Clinic
Impoverished Dominicans and refugee Haitians.
While he enjoys his fur business, Kombourakis says he
had to return to his roots of helping people when it comes to
health. He was reminded of this when his workers who were
from the Dominican Republic invited him and his wife tovisit their homeland. The visit opened Kombourakis’ eyes
toward the need in that region.
“I was really shocked,” says Kombourakis. “I never saw
such poverty; I never saw such misery.”
At that time, Kombourakis says “I had 3,000 customers;
thought I could help.” So he started by sending a box of needed items; that turned into boxes with stores donating.
His donations then went to Haiti and his involvement grew
as he started to help in other ways like a water project to help
bring in clean water to people living there, followed by two

Treating pain associated with cancer
Pain is not always a side effect of cancer, but many people do experi-ence pain while battling this poten-
tially deadly disease. People who have
been diagnosed with cancer should knowthat they don’t have to accept pain as a nor-mal part of their disease, and there are plen-ty of options at their disposal to alleviatetheir pain.
According to the American CancerSociety, all pain can be treated, and most of it can be controlled or relieved. How physi-cians treat pain will depend on the type of pain and its cause, but the following aresome options doctors may discuss with their
patients who are experiencing pain.Medication: The type of medication doc-
tors prescribe will depend on a host of fac-tors, including the level of pain their patientsare dealing with. Non-opioids like acetamin-ophen, aspiring or ibuprofen may be used totreat mild to moderate pain, though patientswho are having surgery or receivingchemotherapy may need to steer clear of non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory drugs(NSAIDs) like aspirin and ibuprofen
because they can slow blood clotting.Opioids, which include oxycodone and mor-phine, may be prescribed for moderate tosevere pain. Pain caused by swelling orpressure may be treated by prescriptionsteroids, such as prednisone and dexametha-sone.
Surgery: The ACS notes that surgery maybe an option to reduce pain associated withcancer. Nerve pathways carry pain impulsesto the brain, but when these impulses are
interrupted, they never make it to the brainand the feelings of pain and pressure cannotbe felt. To block these pathways, neurosur-geons may cut nerves, but such surgery isirreversible, so cancer patients should expecttheir physicians and surgeons to exploreother avenues before recommending sur-gery.
Epidural: An epidural is a method of painrelief in which medicine is injected into thespace around the layers of the spine. Doctors
may implant a pump so they can get painmedicines right around the nerves, and thetreated area may experience numbness orweakness as a result.
Nerve block: Another way to treat painassociated with cancer is via a nerve block,a procedure in which a local anesthetic isinjected into or around a nerve. If doctors donot choose that option, the anesthetic, whichis often combined with a steroid, may beinjected into the space around the spinal
cord to block pain. While the injectionmakes it impossible for the nerve to relaypain to the brain, the nerve block may causemuscle paralysis or a loss of all feeling inthe affected area.
Managing pain associated with cancercan be difficult, but patients dealing withsuch pain can discuss the many pain treat-ment options at their disposal with theirphysicians.

How tofi
nd the right oncologist for you
The day a person is diagnosed withcancer is a life-altering moment.Many people rely on support net-
works made up of family and friends to
help them during their cancer treatments,and such support networks can extend topatients’ choice of oncologists as well.
Oncology is a branch of medicineinvolved in the diagnosis and treatment of tumors. The term “oncology” is derivedfrom the Greek word “onco,” meaning bulkor mass. Upon diagnosing patients with can-cer, oncologists explain the type of cancerpatients have and explain the various treat-ment options available to patients.
Oncologists also are on call to answer anyquestions and are often the first peoplepatients turn to when they have questionsabout their disease.
Taking an active role in their cancer treat-ment can help patients feel more in controlof their situations, and patients’ choice of oncologist is one of the first big decisionsthey must make.
Start with a referral. Begin by speakingwith your primary care physician. He or she
may have a list of recommended oncologistsor ones affiliated with nearby hospitals.
If a loved one has battled cancerin the past, ask him or her fora recommendation.Do your research. The goal is to find an
oncologist who specializes in your form of cancer and has a good treatment successrate. Do not be afraid to ask about successstatistics and ask for prior patients’ names soyou can get their opinions on the care they
received. Look up the doctor’s credentials aswell. For example, HealthGrades.com pro-vides information on malpractice and disci-plinary history.
Consider a group practice. As with othermedical providers, some oncologists worktogether in full partnerships with otheroncologists. Choosing this type of providermay enable you to gain the benefit of thedoctors’ collaborative experience.
Judge communication style and compas-
sion levels. Does the doctor answer yourquestions in a manner that fits with yourpersonality? Do you feel supported by thedoctor and that he or she exudes empathy?Oncologists need to walk the fine linebetween qualified medical provider andfriend.
Look into insurance coverage. While youmay want to go with one particular doctor,you must investigate if your insurance cov-ers that particular oncologist. Otherwise,
out-of-pocket expenses may be considerablyhigh.Look into the hospital. Consider the qual-
ity of care at the hospital where the oncolo-gist will treat you as a patient. Hospital qual-ity can matter based on the type of caregiven, proximity to the patient’s home andreputation.
A qualified, compassionate oncologistcan make it easier to navigate a cancerdiagnosis.

For over twenty years, implant dentistry has been a reliable option for patients
with missing teeth. With the ability to support a crown, an implant procedure
has the capacity to bypass drilling the adjacent teeth. Additionally, with the
recent availability of mini implants, implant dentistry has expanded its utiliza-
tion to anchoring both full and partial dentures for a more secure f it. As they
provide an economic alternative, patients have been very receptive of mini
implants, as they make eating and speaking with dentures much easier.
Dr. Helen Chiu has always been involved in implant dentistry, making it an
integrated part of her everyday practice. From replacing a single tooth, insert-
ing crowns or bridges, securing dentures, to creating multiple, full-arch recon-
structions, she performs every step of each process, surgical and restorative.
Your comfort and convenience are always Dr. Chiu’s top priorities. To
learn more about these procedures, please call our of fice at 973-377-0224.

or three different projects every year.
“Everything’s from the heart,” he says,
involving himself in feeding the kids, form-
ing a baseball team, providing clothing and
supplies, medical supplies and building alarge fish pond five years ago that turned
into a tilapia farm providing fresh tilapia to
people in the village.
He also sent tables and chairs donated by
Montville schools; helped with orphanagesthere; held a computer drive sending com-
puters and laptops to schools; clothing and
supplies drive by Glen Ridge High School;
equipment drives to collect soccer balls.
His efforts, “started at zero and turnedinto a heat wave of thousands,” he says.
“Every year there’s something” else to help
with. We didn’t have the money; we started
with one dollar; now everyone has water and
electricity because of us.
“We’ve become the biggest donors,”sending 50,000 to 60,000 pounds of goods
every year. His customers have been a great
support by bringing him goods and supplies
regularly; he has also gotten support from
the local rotary.
As member of the Rotary of the
Caldwells, Kambourakis established the
DRRO as a registered 501 (c)(3) organiza-
tion three years ago.
A humanitarian project that started with
only six to seven people has gained supportfrom so many people, customers, other busi-
nesses and foundations.
“I said ‘were going to build a clinic.’ It is
80 percent finished, located at La Guneta,
Amina with five acres and four buildings.There will be a kitchen and facility for doc-
tors, up to 25 dormitories for doctors and
nurses to stay. The clinic will be one floor
with high ceilings and will be used to pro-
vide free health care to impoverishedDominicans and refugee Haitians.
“Health care does not exist,” he says,
with polio, HIV, typhoid, tuberculosis, men-
tal illness, malnutrition, diabetes, non-heal-
ing wounds being untreated and non-pre-vented.
There have been missions sent already to
give inoculations and help children by pro-
viding hearing aids.
The new health clinic will provide cervi-
cal screening for women once equipment is
purchased.
“We’ve applied to foundations for moni-
tors for equipment.”
Working on the building has been the
main focus recently with painters, window
installation and roofers on site. Hurricaneproof, the building is made out of aluminum
and sheet rock.
In the main building, the windows and
doors are in place and the roof is on.
Contractors are working on the interiorspace now.
“The outside is spectacular,” he says.
“It’s like a four-star hotel.” A priority is also
to get 20,000 gallons of water to the site.
“It’s been very dry there,” saysKambourakis; “may need to drill for water.”
Behind the clinic compound, he has been
planting and now provides fresh bananas,
mangoes and papayas. “It’s like an oasis,” he
says.Some local supporters of the clinic
include Barnabas Health, LIG Global,
Caldwell University, Rutgers Medical and
numerous rotary and Kiwanis clubs.
“The clinic will serve all impoverished,
no matter what their nationality,” as stated
on the website. “It will serve as a base of
operations for heart, hearing, prosthetic, and
dental missions. It will offer light triage and
nutritional education. But most of all, it will
bring healthcare to those who have nothing.”
Kambourakis says “we will be trainingpeople down there.” Local doctors, nurses
and medical assistants in NJ such as
Hackettstown Medical Center and Robert
Wood Johnson Medical Center will be sent
on missions work in different departments atthe clinic such as special surgery for ortho-
pedics.
The next two the three months will con-
centrate on finishing the clinic. So far,
$380,000 has been used to construct theclinic which will include a kitchen, laundry
room and dormitories. Still needed is
$95,000 to complete the compound.
The plan is to hold a ribbon cutting of the
new health clinic in February 2016 with acontingent of 40 to 50 people made up of
local representatives such as Congressman
Rodney Frelinghuysen, rotary members,
representatives from the medical centers,
other leaders, nurses and possibly some stu-

dents.
Once the clinic is running, Kambourakis
says his goal is to have separate rooms and
departments to handle medical issues likeone for hearing issues, one for dental, anoth-
er for cervical cancer screening, diabetes,
inoculations.
“It’s going to be a beautiful thing,” he
says. Those in the medical field are going tobe a “great help,” and at the same time
“they’re going to learn a lot down there” as
“there are a lot of diseases.”
The undertaking is huge, with
Kambourakis visiting atleast six to seven
times a year, but the end result will be an
incredible gift to the people in theDominican Republic.
Kombourakis efforts are unrelated to the
people of the Dominican as he says “I’m
Greek; I’m a Greek immigrant,” comingover to the U.S. as a student. I was always a
giver.” Kambourakis started out in psychol-
ogy and special education and was involved
with children with disabilities before getting
involved in his family’s fur business.
“It came back to haunt me that I didn’t
fulfill my dream,” he says. “I went back tomy roots to helping children and helping
with disabilities, back to health, it’s me, I’m
there. It’s just Godsend. If you believe in
mitzva, if you believe in destiny. My life is
giving, supporting and helping. If you leave
a little legacy, if you leave a little building, if you can help. There’s a big need down
there.”
One way of supporting the new clinic is
to attend the upcoming dinner dance, open
to anyone, with all proceeds being taxdeductible.
To attend the dinner dance, contact
Kambourakis at 973-226-7303;
[email protected]. For spon-sorship opportunities and more information,
visit www.dominicanrelief.org.“Together, we’re building a healthy
future. Together, let’s finish the clinic.”

As children get ready to dress up for Halloween in afew weeks, it is important to remember that October
is breast cancer awareness month. Florham Park
resident Karen Casolaro, who underwent a double mastecto-my in 2009, beat breast cancer and now helps others over-
come similar obstacles.Casolaro was overwhelmed with support from the com-
munity and in 2010, founded Halos For Angels to help those
less fortunate.
Halos For Angels, Inc. launched on Jan. 7, 2010, a 501(c)
3, a nonprofit charity that helps community families in need
due to sudden tragedy. It offers temporary support and serv-ices until the families are back on their feet once again.
“Halos For Angels, Inc. is for the people,” Casolaro said.
“A place where one goes to give and to receive through love.
For no one should go through sudden tragedy without per-sonal connection, support and love of an angel.”
Casolaro, who is a mother of five children- with children
in Hanover Park High and Ridgedale Middle in Florham
Park- said the support through her children’s friends and
families and the schools, was huge. Hanover Park High
School has been the charity’s main support system.The high school has a display in their lobby that honors
volunteers, promotes upcoming events, posts community
outreach opportunities and volunteer signups. Thomas
Callanan, principal of Hanover Park High was Halos For
Angels, 2015 Honorary Outstanding Volunteer Angel; he
was presented an award at the charity’s annual “Love Is In
The Air” gala. Also presented with awards that evening
were: Ginny Akhoury of Florham Park, Kaitlyn Spada of Florham Park, Chuck Palmisano of East Hanover and
Melanie Tomiziki of Tivoli Design in Madison.
Halos for Angels will hold Fright Factor, which runs Oct.
2-31, Fridays through Sundays. The attraction is a zombie-
infested walkthrough 3,000 square feet with kid-friendlytours, a treasure hunt, face painting, pumpkin picking and
design, festival games, prizes, music, treats and more.
The fundraiser involves many volunteers, which come
from Florham Park, Madison, Chatham, East Hanover,
Roseland, Livingston, West Orange, Whippany and as far as
Sparta and Newton. The organization has helped more than
81 families since its inception.“It has been a privilege and honor to have been chosen to
help serve our 81 recipients,” Casolaro said. “This blessing
has been and continues to be supported and serviced by our
volunteers that “give back” through community outreachefforts all for the greater good. Extending support and serv-
ices through compassion, determination, kindness, consider-
ation, respectful, loyalty, strong in faith, and most important-
ly, love.”
The Fright Factor ticket booth was designed by
Children Dress Up To Help The Less Fortunate
Casolaro’s husband, John and built by the Morris County
VoTech students. He wanted to create a haunted house
exclusively for Halos For Angels. It originated as a 900
square foot structure and three years later, he transformed
the structure into what it is today, a 3,000 square foot “path-
way to terror.”“It has been a success year after year as it grows bigger
and better each year with added “scares” that will haunt your
every move with mechanical surprises,” Casolaro said.
“Some of the brave make it out while others remain yearafter year.”
It is open Saturdays 3 p.m.-6 p.m.; Sundays 1 p.m.-4 p.m.
and it is located at 186 Ridgedale Ave., Florham Park. The
entrance fee is $10. For information, go to www.halosfor-
angelsinc.com.
