What Every Family
Should Know
ONTARIO FUNERAL SERVICE ASSOCIATION
The Ten Stages of Grief
When we are separated
from those we care about and
love.—we grieve. Grief is a
normal and a necessary stage
between loss and recovery.
From years of study and
research. psychologists have
determined there are tcn stages
of grief. If we make ourselves
aware of these stages. we will
be more able to cope with
them when they occur. and
understand what the bereaved
can experience if we are on the
outside.
I. Shock. Shock is a
natural built-in defence
mechanism that temporarily
anesthetizes survivors and
keeps us from fully com-
prehending the extent of our
hos` and hurt immediately.
2. Emotional Release.
The extent of our loss starts to
be realized and we can take
out our feelings at whoever
happens to be around us at the
time.
3. Depression. We
realize we arc suddenly left
alone and a feeling of isolation
takes over.
4. Physical Symptoms.
There arc a great deal of peo-
ple who have to be treated for
physical ailments after a death.
Sometimes. these symptoms
are the same as the deceased
experienced.
5. Panic. We need
friends and relatives to assure
us that our panic is a normal
response. We are not becom-
ing irrational!
6. Guilt. We feel we
could and should have done
more than we did. If the guilt
has a foundation, the person
may need help from a self-help
group or a professional
counsellor.
Your area Ontario Funeral
7. Hostility. Hostility
can show us that perhaps the
survivor is starting to come
out of depression and is star-
ting to express himself. In-
stead of self pity and blame,
they may blame others:
clergy, doctors. funeral direc-
tors, nurses.
8. Unable to return to
normal activities. Our socie-
ty is based on • •couple enter-
taining" and it is difficult for
the surviving spouse to fit in-
to the same social circles.
Friends are very important for
support at this time. •
9. Emotional balance
returns. The person is begin-
ning to overcome his grief.
This may take a month and
may take two years. It depends
on the person and the cir-
cumstances involved.
10. Adjustment to
Reality. We realize we will
never be the same again. due
to the great loss we have suf-
fered. But we have experienc-
ed it and hopefully have
become stronger again! Ad-
justment has occured.
Not all survivors will go
through the above ten stages or
in this specific order. but all
will go through most of them.
We at the Ontario Funeral Ser-
vice Association hope this ar-
ticle will he informative and
possibly serve as a vehicle for
further discussion. For
reading material or informa-
tion on the above. contact a
member funeral home of

New form of recognition
for lifesaving attempts
A new form of recognition
has been established by the
Emergency Cardiac Care of
the Heart and Stroke Founda-
tion of Ontario which will
commend the efforts of
anyone trained in CPR (car-
diopulmonary resuscitation)
for his/her attempts at pro-
viding a lifesaving act.
Any member of the public
who is a graduate of the Heart
and Stroke Foundation of On-
tario Heart Saver or Basic
Rescuer course is eligible for
the new Lifesaver Award.
The award will recognize
that prompt response was in-
itiated by an individual at the
first signs of a life threatening
event and that appropriate
actions were taken by that in -

By providing this form of
recognition, the Heart and

hope to further create public
awareness of the fact that in
an emergency cardiac situa-

in learning what help to pro-

There are hazards
lurking for mechanics
Jack is a 28 year old
mechanic. He's been working
as a mechanic for eight years
now.
Occasionally Jack ex-
periences headaches and diz-
ziness while on the job. It
hasn't crossed Jack's mind
that these symptoms may be
caused by something in his
work environment. "But it
should" says Miss Marybelle
Ford of the Huron -Perth Lung
Association. "Mechanics are
exposed to a variety of toxic
substances and a high level
exposure over a period of
time may lead to health
problems."
A common shop hazard is
carbon monoxide from car
exhaust. This odourless, col- ,
ourless, tasteless gas reduces ,
the oxygen carrying capacity
of the blood. The effects are
first felt by those tissues most
sensitive to a lack of oxygen
such as the brain and the
heart. Mechanics should
always be alert for the early
signs of carbon monoxide
poisoning — headache, diz-
ziness, dim vision, nausea and
vomiting. High concentra-
tions of carbon monoxide may
result in death.
The garage environment
contains additional hazards
for mechanices. These in-
clude lead from auto exhaust,
sulfuric acid gas and par-
ticulate sulfates found in
automobiles with catalytic
converters, asbestos in brake
linings, as well as the many
chemicals contained in brake
fluids and oils used in the
shop.
"Cigarette smoking great-
ly increases the hazard for
auto mechanics" says Miss
Marybelle Ford. It appears
that some of the elements
contained in cigarette smoke
and the various chemicals
found in auto repair work
may attack different parts of
the respiratory system at the
same time. Their effects may
add together, or they may
combine to give an effect
even greater than their sum,
making them especially
damaging.
What can mechanics do to
protect themselves from a
potentially hazardous en-
vironment? "First of all",
says Miss Marybelle Ford "if
you are a smoker -- quit. Give
your lungs every chance to
work as they should". As well,
adequate ventilation, install-
ed and functioning properly,
is essential for a safe work
environment.
The Lung Association has
an excellent pamphlet with in-
formation on the hazards in
the auto repair shop. Call
271-7500 and ask for "Lung
Hazards On The Job — Auto
Repair". Remember - Lungs
are For Life!

IFYOU DON'T REMEMBER
YOU MAY NEVER FORGET.
There are some very good reasons to
stop for stationary school buses. Such as the
penalties for not stopping, which could
include six demerit points, fines up to $1,000
and even imprisonment.
And this year, there's something new to
watch for. Chrome yellow
school buses can be used
for passengers under 18 to
or from any event–day or
night. Drivers will activate
their flashing red lights
and stop arms when their
passengers get on or off
the bus.
But the most impor-
tant reason of all is simply this: Your mistake
could cost a child's life. And that kind of mis-
take is never forgotten.
So remember, drivers going in both
directions must stop for a school bus with its
red lights flashing and stop arm extended.
Drivers approaching from
behind must stop at least
20 metres (about six car
lengths) behind the bus.
So be extra careful at
all times. Keep an eye out
for tlashing lights and stop
arms on school buses.
Please, don't take a chance
with the life of a child!
