Members of Alpha Pi
enjoy varied activity
Alpha Pi chapter of Beta Sigma Phi
joined with sister chapters Xi Gam-
ma Nu and Beta Theta for a
Christmas Party at the Masonic Hall
on December 4. A game of court whist
was enjoyed after which Santa arriv-
ed and distributed Secret Sister gifts
to everyone. The Social Committees
of all the chapters were in charge of
planning the evening. Lunch of cut
glass dessert. coffee and tea was en-
joyed by all.
On December 11 members of Alpha
Pi travelled to London to see the
musical "Cole" at Theatre London.
The production was much enjoyed by
everyone. Susan Mauer and Lynda
Freiter were in charge of plans for the
evening which included lunch after
the show al Sorrenti's.
Alpha Pi sorority was pleased to
sponsor a holiday home decorating
contest this year. The Service Com-
mittee had fun viewing all the decora-
tions before finally choosing the win-
ners. Cash prozes were awarded to
Gib Dow. first place: Stu Homuth, se-
cond; and Peter Plantinga, third.
Hopefully this will become an annual
event after an absence of several
years.
On January 8 members met for the
first meeting of the new year. We
toured the emergency room of South
Huron Hospital and also viewed the
Apnea monitor which we helped buy.
The visit was arranged by Nancy
Charrette and Joan Morgan who were
in charge of the program on
"Medicine: Exploring your
interests'•.
We returned to the "home of Lynda
Freiter for our business meeting.
Registration forms will be available
soon at local elementary schools for
the babysitting course which Alpha Pi
sponsors each year. We are having a
draw again this year on a $100.00 gift
certificate donated by Looking Good.
Tickets are $1.00 each and available
from any Alpha Pi member or by call-
ing Sharon Davis at 235-1269.
Heart to Heart helps with answers
Times -Advocate. January 23. 1985 Page 7
Where do we go from here?
Heart disease and stroke kill as
many Canadians each year as all
other diseases combined. The annual
toll is 80,000, and 2,600,000 more men,
women and children are afflicted.
More than half those having a first
heart attack die instantly, or within
the year.
Others are more fortunate. They
undergo major surgery to bypass
clogging heart arteries before the
otherwise inevitable heart attack has
occurred.
For survivors of either heart at-
tacks or heart surgery, and for their
families, the big question is "Where
do we go from here?" Understanding
what has happened and knowing what
to expect in the future can start a pa-
tient more quickly and easily on the
road to recovery.
Heart to Heart, a post -discharge
group program for cardiac patients
and their partners, can provide some
of the answers. The program com-
bines education and support in an
eight-week series of weekly sessions.
Specialists from different fields pro-
vide patient and partner with infor-
mation on all aspects of heart disease.
They answer questions and offer
practical and helpful suggestions for
recuperating.
• Each formal session lasts one hour
and is followed by refreshments, giv-
ing those attending an opportunity to
talk informally with the guest speaker
and others in the group.
The introductory session identifies
common concerns. The next week is
devoted to cardiology, examining
heart function and disease, the heal-
ing process, risk factors and
modification. Session three focuses on
nutrition and'weight control implica-
tions in heart disease.
The effect of physical activity on
the heart, and sexual activity after a
heart attack are the main topics the
following week. A CPR demonstra-
tion and discussion of dos and don'ts
in emergency situations highlights
session five.
Attention turns to the psychological
aspects - grief, denial, anger, depres-
sion and the effect of crisis on the pa-
tient and family - at the next meeting.
Session seven turns to methods of cop-,
ing with the reducing stress. The
wind-up session ties everything
together to reinforce positive at-
titudes and plan for an optimal
lifestyle.
Until now, the Heart to Heart pro-
gram has been offered only in larger

The Huron County chapter of the
Heart and Stroke Foundation of On-
tario is forming an ad hoc committee
to find out if there is a need for this
type of program in this area, and if
it would have the support of local
doctors.
Chapter president Bruce Shaw is
heading the ad hoc committee. Doc-
tors he has already contacted have
confirmed the fact there is a place for
this follow-up program, and they are
willine to cooperate in it.
Shaw said that at one time many
doctors felt pseudo -professionals try-
ing to deal with medical problems
wouldn't do patients much good. Over
the years, programs like Heart to
Heart have proven themselves to doc-
tors and patients alike.
The first meeting of the ad hoc com-
mittee will be held at Huronview on
January 30, begining at 7:30 p.m.
Shaw wants participation from across
the country, and asks anyone in-
terested to contact him.
