Speaking of cancer as a 'disease, Dr, Watson says the idea that cancer is incurable ^ is a myth.- More than 50 per cent of the • cancer patients are being cured. Methods of treatment are steadily being' improved. Surgical treatment is only one method. New types of rays are being used which makes radio-therapy a more, effective treatment.' lmmunatheraPY is a relatively new method which is the persuading of the body to recognize its own cancer, cells as enemy, Turni .to page it ocie mee The nieetings .was *chaired by Mrs: Kathleen McKay, who is the Bluewater. Region Chairman. During her com ments she noted that the reyerde_of the 1979 People Back In Action --- Because Arthritis• Research Is-Paying Off; was the theme of the,; Annnal Region Meet- ing held by The Arthriti$ ociety volunteers at, the Walkerton Golf and Country Club on Saturday, April 26, campaign and other supple- mentary fund-raising actiVitr ies was 562,248.00. The vol.: unteers were commended for their efforts. Speakers at the meeting included Mr. George Wel- ling, Assistanct Executive Director,. Ontario Diviiion; and Dr. Gunnar Kraag, Rheumatologist at McMaster Medical Centre in Hamilton.. Dr. Kraag emphasized the impact of arthritis and rheu- matism on every community in- Canada. Loss, from work because of the various forms of arthritis and rheumatism is second only to.respiratory • infections and the cost to the economy is enormous.. The suffering and incapaCity of individual patients is'incalcu- lable 'and yet an attitude of "Well, it's only arthritis and I am getting old" is all . too prevalent.. Patients should no more accept a diagnosis of "arthritis" than a diagnosis bf 'chest pain". There are: well over 150 different forms of :arthritis arid rheumatism,*many • of which can be very well :controlled and even mired. The establishment of Rheu- idatic. Disease Units through-. out Canada and the increase in, the number of rheiimatol -ogists serving various coin- munitieS, has been 'a trem endous. boon to the individual —patient. This improvement :in health care to patients with ,...arthritics has_ not come about by enlightened government or university action, but rather by the efforts of The Arthritis Society. The back- bone of The Arthriti5 Society is the. many Volunteers who promote the. Society's object- ives and help raise funds for the research which has al- rady reaped tremendous benefits. We can now share the optimism that not only Will patients get "back in action" but that continued investment in research will pay off with a cure to a. problem that, sooner.or later, affects us all. The meeting was adjourn- - .ed following the showing of an informative film on Arth- risits, narrated by Henry Fonda, entitled "Wherever You Are".
