Savvy Senior: Does Medicare Cover Home Health Care?
By Jim Miller
Dear Savvy Senior,
How does Medicare cover in-home health care? My husband has a chronic health condition that makes it very difficult for him to leave the house, so I’m wondering if he could qualify for Medicare home health care.
Seeking Help
Dear Seeking,
Medicare covers a wide variety of part-time or intermittent in-home health care services to beneficiaries in need, if they meet Medicare’s criteria. Here’s how it works.

One Thing or Another: Found At Sea
By Mark McNease
It’s always One Thing or Another… a lighthearted look at aging, life, and the absurdities of it all.
Bodies of water hold a fascination for many people, as well as providing an indescribable comfort. I grew up in an Indiana town with two rivers, and I live just a mile from the magnificent Delaware flowing slowly between New Jersey and Pennsylvania. For me there has always been something about the movement of these vast waterways that felt like home, as if I really am a fish out of water longing to jump back in where I belong and swim away.

Review: Frida Kahlo’s ‘Pose’ Exhibition at Brandeis University’s Rose Art Museum, by Sue Katz
This article is reprinted with permission from Sue Katz: Consenting Adult
By Sue Katz
Sue Katz I’m on a mission to check out the many small museums in this area of Massachusetts. This rainy Saturday was the perfect timing for my first visit to the Rose Art Museum. Their modern and contemporary permanent collection is extraordinary – every piece of the highest quality. Stunners from one wall to another, with women and people of color now heavily represented.

What’s Cooking: Easy Summer Zucchini Bread
What’s Cooking is a feature at LGBTSr highlighting easy, delicious recipes. Have a recipe to share? Email us at: recipes @ lgbtsr.com
Our vegetable garden is in near-full bloom again, with cucumbers and zucchini popping up every day. It will be awhile longer for the tomatoes, but there’s no reason to wait for delicious cucumber salad (coming soon!) and easy-peasy zucchini bread and muffins.
Here’s a recipe I’ve used every summer since we started the garden. It’s easy and delicious, and it looks like you worked harder than you did. I’m not much for heavy lifting in the kitchen – the cleanup is enough labor for me. These are my favorite kinds of recipes, and you can do them year after year (or month after month, if it suits you!).
