Marc Joseph grew up here, the Realtor son of a Realtor dad. He watched the market go mad and had his revelation: now is the moment to get back in - and stake your claim. At 41, he did not expect to be driving around Cape Coral in an old church bus that he bought off Craigslist, painted dollar green and emblazoned with the motto "ForeclosureToursRUs.com."

SANOSON, however, does not claim to have made strides in the field of child-smartening, nor does it aim to mimic the musical folk therapy employable on, say, crowded restaurant floors. Rather, it aims to combat the stressors that many long-term hospital patients and the gravely ill face during recovery. Patients are prescribed a schedule...
