Head-nodding a habit
DEAR DR. BLAKER - My
aunt always nods her head
while I am talking.
At first I thought it meant
she understood my point, but
then I noticed that she even
nods before 1 have finished
my sentence. How can she
know what 1 am going to say?
This habit has become so
annoying that I don’t visit her
very often anymore. Am I
being too sensitive?
DEAR READER - If you
can figure out what the nodd-
ing means, you may be able to
cope with your aunt’s behav-
ior at least well enough for
infrequent but comfortable
visits.
Dr. Burton Giges, a psychi-
atrist at Albert Einstein Col-
lege of Medicine in New York
City, classifies the various
meanings of head nodding as
follows:
1. Gives permission. (“It’s
OK to go on.”)
2. Stroking. (“I agree." “I
approve”)
3. Rescue. (“You can’t make
it without me ”)
4. Protection. (“Go on. It’s
safe.”)
5. Control. (“I’ve heard
enough. Go on to something
else”)
6. Put-down. (“I knew I was
right after all.” “I told you
so.”)
7. Competition. (“Yeah,
yeah. I knew it before you told
me.”)
8. Stroke rip-off. (“Notice
me. Like me. See how good I
am for listening and
agreeing”)
9. Avoidance. (“I’m hid
my real feelings and
thoughts”)
10. Emphasis. (“I think
that’s an important
romantic.
I must warn you, however,
that you may risk your rela-
tionship by trying to change
its nature.
It’s possible that you and

statement.”)
If your aunt lives alone and
has few visitors, her nodding
may well be an example of
No. 8: “Notice me. Like me.
Visit me."
DEAR DR. BLAKER - I
have known my next-door
neighbor for more than six
years.
Although he and I are good
friends, that’s not enough for
me. I am very much in love
with him and want to date
him.
When we do go out, it’s as
friends only. And when I ask
him if we could date, he
always says we are too close
to start anything like that.
Can two people in our situa-
tion ever be more than good
friends?
DEAR READER - Of
course it’s possible! Some of
the best marriages I know of
began as good solid friend-
ships and only later became
and your neighbor would not
get along if you were dating.
How would you then resume a
friendship like you have now?
This fear may be one factor
in your friend’s reluctance to
move toward a more roman-
tic relationship if he is other-
wise so inclined.
Reading this column togeth-
er may bring the subject into
the open and help you resolve
your problem. I hope so.

City
12-year-old preacher
sure he can perform
By MARK ROSATI
Associated Press Writer
CHICAGO (AP) — Thomas H.
Schillinger, ordained a minister
of the Calvary’s Faith Climber
Church, opposes drinking,
smoking, premarital sex and
rock ’n’ roll. He says he thinks
be can handle his new job
because he’s “seen a lot of
situations in 12 years of being
alive.”
“If I don’t know something
the Lord will give me an an-
swer,” said 12-year-old Tommy
after his ordination Sunday. “I
don’t think my age will bother
me a bit”
Tommy was ordained by
Flossie B. Partlow, the founding
pastor of the church, which is
located in the city of Moline
along the Illinois-Iowa border.
The church has about 200
members, although only about
40 to 50 people regularly attend
services. Miss Partlow has
ordained five other members of
the congregation as ministers,
including Tommy’s mother,
Joanne.
“I’ve always wanted to be a
minister,” said Tommy, who
has been a member of the non-
denominational church since
Miss Partlow founded it in May
1976.
Miss Partlow, 60, said that
about two years ago, “Tommy
wanted to be ordained and I told
him, no, son, you’re too young.
But he really lived his life for
God.” She said Tommy has an
extensive knowledge of the
Bible and had been giving
sermons in the church and
traveling to other states with
her to do evangelistic work
since he was 3.
She finally succumbed to his
pleas last month.
“I told him your friends are
going to make fun of you.
You’re going to be persecuted.
People are going to say you’re
too young,”’ Miss Partlow said.
“He answered: ‘There are
fellows younger than ,1 am
trying out for the Olympics. I’m
not too young to separate sin
from righteousness. I’m not too
young to tell somebody about
the Lord.’”
She said Tommy will spend
most of his time writing articles
for the church newsletter,
preaching to the congregation,
helping to prepare the church’s
weekly radio broadcast and
going door-to-door spreading
the Christian faith.
The pastor said that although
Tommy, as an ordained
minister of an incorporated
church, could legally perform
marriages, he has decided not
to do so until he reaches the
legal age of majority of 18
because he “doesn’t want to
take that responsibility yet.”
Tommy said his classmates
will “probably think Pm crazy”
for becoming a minister.
“Our world doesn’t lean
toward the spiritual all that
much anymore,” he said.

WALLACE, Ed.D.

Dr. Wallace: I baby-sat for
a lady who has two children
and she said that she would
pay me $1.00 an hour. Well,
when she returned 21 hours
later (she told me she would
be gone that long) she said
her boyfriend forgot to give
her the money to pay me.
That was two months ago
and I have not seen her
since. How can I get my
money? — William, Nashua,
N.H.
William: Have your
mother go with you to this
woman’s house and get your
money. If she can’t come up
with the entire amount,
allow her to pay so much per
week until you have all of
your money.
P.S. This was no lady you
baby-sat for.
Dr. Wallace: I am 20 and
my boyfriend is 23 and we
have been dating for two
years. He says that be loves
me and I love him very
much so I was thrilled when
he asked me to marry him.
The only problem is that
he won’t allow me to attend
church with him because his
former wife worships there.
Secretly I think he still loves
her. Please tell me what you
think. — Kathy, Springfield,
Ohio

DEAR DR LAMB - I’m a
29-year-old female. Five
years ago I had a large mass
removed from my left ovary
and there was a bleeding cyst
inside of it. The doctor saia it
was endometriosis. Eleven
months later 1 was pregnant
with my first daughter. She
was delivered by Caesarean
section because of a breech
position. A year later I began
having severe pain on the left
side and lower back When I
was to deliver my second
daughter, again by surgery,
my husband and I decided we
couldn't take any more sur-
gery and that our two children
were enough. I had a hys-
terectomy at the time of the
C-section which included
removal of the uterus, ovaries
and the tubes Currently I’m
taking Ogen daily.
How does endometriosis
affect the pituitary gland?
Does the pituitary gland
affect eyesight? Once the
ovaries are gone, is the dis-
ease gone? Will 1 always have
a monthly cycle of depression,
irritability and swelling? Does
a hysterectomy usually lower
your sexual interest? Do most
women going through early
menopause have emotional
problems severe enough to
seek psychiatric help?
DEAR READER - To
begin with, the tissue that
lines the uterus is called the
endometrium. When any of
this tissue is displaced to
other parts of the body, and
commonly it’s found in the
ovary, it’s called endome-
triosis.
This displaced tissue under-
goes cyclical changes second-
ary to sex hormone stimula-
tion the same as the lining in
the uterus itself. When it
enlarges and swells, it causes
pain. It can also destroy ovar-
ies when they are involved or
it can block tubes.
Endometriosis does not
health
Lawrence E. Lamb, M.D.
affect the pituitary gland.
However, the pituitary gland
stimulates the ovaries to
release sex hormones which,
in turn, develops the endome
trium whether it’s lining the
uterus or is elsewhere
The pituitary gland is the
master hormone gland that’s
underneath the brain and it’s
located right where the optic
nerves: from each eye meet. If
it enlarges it can cause pres-
sure on the optic nerves and
affect vision.
Usually if the ovaries are
removed, the endometrial tis-
sue enlarg
ation cycle
will disappear
I’m sending you The Health
Letter number 14-12,
Hysterectomy, Cystocele and
Rectocele, which will give you
a lot more information about
hysterectomies Other readers
who want this issue can send
rgement and degener-
ate that causes pain
75 cents with a long, stamped,
self-addressed envelope for it
Send your request to me, in
care of this newspaper, P.O. -
Box 1551, Radio city Station, •
New York, NY 10019. Young
women who have had the
ovaries removed as well as a
hysterectomy often require
hormone support. Otherwise!.-,
they have a premature meno-
pause
As explained in The Health h
Letter Irm sending you, many
women do not lose interest in
sex after a hysterectomy.
Depression sometimes occurs
after surgery even if it doesn’t'
involve female surgery. If
you're having what you inter-
pret as excessive swings in -
your mood, it may be related
to your life style. If they’re ?
more than the normal ups and,:; ,
downs that we experience,,
then you might need profes-
sional counseling.
