  • 3/6/14 8:02:14 PM -- chambersburg, PA  -- Family photos hang on the wall behind Trevor Wyant. Trevor and his wife Lenore lost their son to a brain tumor -- Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma -- October, 2011. <br />
<br />
Lenore Wyant lost her son to an almost universally fatal brain tumor, but agreed to donate his tumor (in an autopsy) to St. Jude’s, which has used tumor samples like these to make a big discovery about this rare cancer. Turns out that 80% of these rare tumors (only 200 to 300) a year have the same genetic mutations. Doctors hope to use this information to create a new drug, which could take years. But the knowledge is giving parents solace in knowing their kids left a legacy that may help other parents avoid losing their children. --    Photo by Matt Roth, Freelance

  • Glen Arm, Maryland - December 30, 2015: <br />
Hilda Geiwitz, 95, middle, and her son Allen Geiwitz, 71, dine with friends, including, Jane Pennington, 89, hand, and Libby Seifert, 84, left, at the Glen Meadows Retirement Community cafe Wednesday Dec. 30, 2015. <br />
<br />
Allen Geiwitz, 71, moved into the Glen Meadows Retirement Community, a CCRC in Glen Arm, Maryland, about nine months after his ninety-one-year-old mother Hilda Geiwitz. The upkeep of his three-bedroom home became tiresome, and he wanted to be closer to his mother. Moving into the same facility made sense for him. The trend of elderly children caregivers moving to the same retirement communities as their parents is picking up steam because the lengthening lifespan means that caregivers are getting older, too.<br />

Autism, once thought to be a condition for wealthy white people, has a long history of diagnosis prejudice for poor and minority children. Wendy, a solidly middle-class African American mother, with a masters degree, tried getting a diagnosis for John when he was two, but was repeatedly dismissed or misdiagnosed until he was 10.<br />

  • Baltimore, Maryland - December 15, 2016: Alan Fuesterman, left, Founder and CEO of Montage Hotels & Resorts, and his son Michael Fuerstman, right, co-founder & creative director of Pendry Hotels -- an off-shoot of Montage -- stand for a portrait in the Sagamore Pendry Baltimore Model Room.<br />
<br />
Hotel companies often start a new brand to expand their business without confusing customers or diluting other brands. How do companies decide when to launch a new brand and how do they do it? Montage Hotels, a popular luxury hotel company, is unveiling Pendry, a lower-priced more boutique brand in Baltimore and San Diego in January and February. The company is struggling with how to take the best bits of Montage - where room rates average $700 per night - but do them at a lower cost for Pendry, where rates will be closer to $300. At Pendry, for example, guests will not be escorted to their rooms like they are at Montages. (This cuts down on staffing costs for the front desk.) Rooms will be smaller and bathrooms simpler, with just one sink instead of two and no tub. Pendry rooms will feature automatic minibars that automatically charge guests when they remove an item. This cuts down on staff costs, but can annoy guests.<br />

  • 3/6/14 8:02:14 PM -- chambersburg, PA  -- Family photo magnets cling to the Wyant Family refrigerator showing the growth stages of both of their children, Foster and Gabrielle. Foster died from a brain tumor -- Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma -- October, 2011. Gabrielle, 6, is almost the same age as her brother was when he passed. <br />
Lenore Wyant lost her son to an almost universally fatal brain tumor, but agreed to donate his tumor (in an autopsy) to St. Jude’s, which has used tumor samples like these to make a big discovery about this rare cancer. Turns out that 80% of these rare tumors (only 200 to 300) a year have the same genetic mutations. Doctors hope to use this information to create a new drug, which could take years. But the knowledge is giving parents solace in knowing their kids left a legacy that may help other parents avoid losing their children. --    Photo by Matt Roth, Freelance

  • 3/6/14 7:00:05 PM -- chambersburg, PA  -- A photo of Foster Wyant hangs above his family's kitchen table. Foster's little sister Gabrielle, 6, waits for her parents start eating pizza. Foster died from a Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma brain tumor October, 2011, when he was close to Gabrielle's age. <br />
<br />
Lenore Wyant lost her son to an almost universally fatal brain tumor, but agreed to donate his tumor (in an autopsy) to St. Jude’s, which has used tumor samples like these to make a big discovery about this rare cancer. Turns out that 80% of these rare tumors (only 200 to 300) a year have the same genetic mutations. Doctors hope to use this information to create a new drug, which could take years.

  • 3/6/14 6:49:20 PM -- chambersburg, PA  -- Gabrielle Wyant, 6, draws a picture of her late brother, Foster, in his old room.  Foster was her age when he passed away in October, 2011, from a terminal brain tumor, Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma. His room still has much of Foster's things in it, but has been converted to Gabrielle's play room.<br />

  • 101803 Matt Roth.Keirsten (either didn't want to give me her last name or just goes by Keirsten -- like Cher) comforts her son Isaiah Moon after he "ran over" another concert goer's foot with his toy truck -- the incident startled the two year-old. Both of them, along with Keirsten's husband/Isaiah Moon's father, are "touring" or following Widespread Panic.

  • Glen Arm, Maryland - December 30, 2015: <br />
Hilda Geiwitz, 95, middle, and her son Allen Geiwitz, 71, dine with friends, including, Jane Pennington, 89, hand, and Libby Seifert, 84, left, at the Glen Meadows Retirement Community cafe Wednesday Dec. 30, 2015. <br />
<br />
Allen Geiwitz, 71, moved into the Glen Meadows Retirement Community, a CCRC in Glen Arm, Maryland, about nine months after his ninety-one-year-old mother Hilda Geiwitz. The upkeep of his three-bedroom home became tiresome, and he wanted to be closer to his mother. Moving into the same facility made sense for him. The trend of elderly children caregivers moving to the same retirement communities as their parents is picking up steam because the lengthening lifespan means that caregivers are getting older, too.<br />

  • Gambrills, Maryland - January 02, 2019: Wendy Shaia, the Executive Director of Social Work Community Outreach Service at the University of Maryland, with her 19-year-old autistic son John Shaia at their home in Gambrills, Md., Wednesday January 2, 2018. Autism, once thought to be a condition for wealthy white people, has a long history of diagnosis prejudice for poor and minority children. Wendy, a solidly middle-class African American mother, with a masters degree, tried getting a diagnosis for John when he was two, but was repeatedly dismissed or misdiagnosed until he was 10.<br />
