Nancy Bennett Benefit Project 2012
June 20th, 2012, Nancy Bennett was admitted for emergency, life-saving, surgery in Port Angeles, WA. They found a tumor had perforated her bowel, did the extensive repairs, and she now has an ileostomy bag which she’ll have the rest of her life. She spent over 2 weeks in the hospital and currently has to return to the hospital 2 times a day for wound care. The doctors have said she needs to take it very easy for 4 months to try and heal, plus regain energy and strength. The care for her ileostomy will be ongoing, even after the wound heals. Nancy has no insurance to cover all these medical costs, plus being unable to work for at least 4 months.
HHA is fundraising for Nancy and 100% of all donations will go to her. Please send all donations to Health Harmony Assistance, 429 Harrison Street, Port Townsend WA 98363. Nancy is very grateful for any and all assistance.

Our vision for Eagle’s Loft Retreat shifted from a large center in the NW to a smaller tropical setting. Eagle’s Loft non-profit retreats, for disadvantaged youth and adults, would be one to two week’s long and be held at Dolphin Harmony.
Dolphin Harmony will be a for-profit retreat and home of Bonnie Masi (Executive Director of Health Harmony Assistance). Dolphin Harmony is still in its formative stages so HHA’s retreat center projects will be for the future, but are coming!
Eagle’s Loft/Dolphin Harmony Retreat sampling:
- Arts - watercolors, music
therapy, drumming, dance
- Alternative
and conventional healing modalities – massage,
homeopathy, relaxation techniques
- Guided imagery, meditation,
writing, storytelling
- Nature hikes, kayaking, fishing, swimming
- Study of local plants
and preparation of tropical fruits and vegetables (plantain,
yucca, chayote)
- Tellington Touch (the gentle way to address
physical and behavioral issues), no-kill shelters and
foster services for needy animal
friends
- Respite for professionals or any workers
needing space and quiet time with an option of attending
activities
or just
spending time in nature and self-reflection

the Board of Directors, March 2006, for funding help with medical
supplements, health care and promotion of her creative art
and writing projects.
Diana
Spatola’s application for HHA was approved June
2006 to assist with mental health needs, some living expenses
and to raise funds for her to complete her Massage Therapy
classes. Her wish is to “to feel healthy, help others
and be self-supporting”.
HHA volunteer members provided Diana with emotional support,
counseling, occasional meals, showers and a place to rest and
heal. She has relocated from Port Townsend to Mount Shasta,

hoping to complete her Massage Therapy training in the future.
