Dear Dr. Roach: I am a woman, age 68. When I was 12 years old, I was five feet, five inches tall. Now I am four feet, eight inches tall. I have scoliosis plus degenerative arthritis of the spine and walk bent over.

Dear Annie: I have a dear friend from high school who I’ve never lost touch with. We have the kind of friendship where it doesn’t matter if we haven’t talked for months; she is there to listen and stand up for me.

Dear readers: I want to wish everyone a very happy Fourth of July.

Dear Dr. Roach: Our family dog got sick and needed to be admitted to the veterinary hospital, where she was diagnosed with leptospirosis.

I had always held my sister in high regard, and I loved her. She was my big sis, and I felt she loved and cared for me. But things have happened to cause me to change my mind.

For those of you who don’t know about Orme School, it was founded by Charles Henry Orme and his wife Minna Vrang Orme. They met and graduated from Stanford University in California. Both believed in the importance of education. They sold their ranch in Phoenix in 1929 and set up a small school for their own children and the children of their ranch hands in Yavapai County.

The first Sharlot Hall Museum, week-long summer reader’s theater camp titled “The Tales That Lay Before Us” exposed 25 children from elementary to middle school to Prescott’s frontier roots and some of the key characters who shaped Arizona’s first Territorial Capitol.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a healthy 77-year-old male. I'm 5 feet, 7 inches tall and weigh 145 pounds, with difficult-to-control high blood pressure.

Dear Annie: My wife, "Jill," and I have been married for seven years, together for nine.
