For Halloween, OESH sponsored a “Bone Bash” held on Saturday to raise money for our local Arthritis Foundation. The shoes we donated were a huge hit. We only had two sizes out for display so it was kind of like a Cinderella thing as far as people being able to try them on — which […]

We had dinner the other night at a family friends’ house. The kind of good friends who you can talk to about anything and get into the most heated conversations about… anything. So over arugula pizza and apple martinis (for the parents, not the kids) we fully covered the topic of whether the U.S. is […]

We whipped up this new sign on our handy dandy CNC waterjet saw. Right outside the main factory door, it makes it much easier to find us!

Ellen Fox, M.D., my best friend from Harvard Medical School (who I was dancing with at her wedding, here), visited this weekend and took this picture of her OESH. After returning from Monticello, she declared that Thomas Jefferson would have loved OESH. Mr. Jefferson was a big fan of innovation.

Admittedly though, my mind does sometimes wander to scenes of I […]

Some of my favorite people in their OESH's at work... my mom's doctor, Mary Evans, and nurse, Sandy Milazzo. Continue Reading2011 IAAF World Championships: One photo tells all
While in Daegu, Korea last week, I caught this photo during the preliminary heat of the IAAF World Championship 3,000 meter steeplechase where the USA’s Stephanie Garcia, a recent graduate of the University of Virginia, was running (she is fourth from the left). Our middle daughter, Kellyn, got to hang out with Stephanie a couple […]

One of my closest friends, Hilary Siebens, a fellow Harvard M.D., and avid OESHer, forwarded me this post which I cut and pasted below, about supermodel Gisele refusing to wear high-heeled shoes. (Click here to see the original post.) Gisele refuses to wear high heels Chris Moore / Getty Images file By Alexander Smith Sorry, Carrie Bradshaw. Even […]
