However, if it is diagnosed in the early stages, there is a chance for survival. Allen Gee, President of the Reye's Syn- drome Foundation of Canada, shared his ex- perience of losing his 14 -year-old daughter to Reye's Syndrome when he spoke to the Goshen Mother's Club on March 25. After showing a film, Mr. Gee described the symptoms that led tc his daughter's - death one year ago. He told the audience that his daughter' had taken ASA to relieve a sore throat. A few days later she experienc- ed persistent vomiting which was followed by extreme sleepiness, irritable behavior, disorientation and hostile behavior such as kicking and lashing out with extreme strength. He also stated t at his daughter no longer recognized an fa ily members. Mr. Gee's daughte as then taken to the hospital where she slipped into a coma and died a few days later. Although the cause of Reye's Syndrome is unknown, Mr. Gee warned that various drugs such as ASA and anti -vomiting drugs may contribute to the severity of Reye's Syndrome. He explained his comment fur- ther by saying that in many of the reported cases, the victims had been given ASA following a viral disorder such as the flu, a cold or the chicken pox. He also pointed out that Reye's Syndrome most often affects children and teenagers between the ages of EXTRA SAVINGS jHEINZ� TOMATO KETCHUP KETCHUPAUX TOMATE5 HEINZ KETCHUP 0 1 LITRE BOTTLE STOKELYS VAN CAMP 2 VARIETIES BEANS WITH PORK OR- 28 oz, SANT-FLUSH DARK RED jut AUTO.

Behavior change, disorientation, hostility and a coria follow. A viral disorder, such as the flu or a cold, usually occurs before Reye's Syndrome. The effects of the viral disorder usually last anywhere from a few days to a week. In some rare cases, Reye's Syndrome is not preceded by a virus infection, but starts abruptly. There is a brief recovery period from the original viral disorder lasting from a few hours to several days. During this time, the child is not unusually sick but not well either. This stage is followed by violent, r Tentless vomiting and is usually the first serious sign of Reye's Syndrome, except in infants. The hands and feet may be cold and clammy but their temperature may be nor- mal or even subnormal. The pupils may be dilated, meaning the dark part of the eye re- mains expanded even in bright light. Behavior change can be detected when the child becomes irritable and negative, wanting to be left alone. The child is also an- noyed if anyone speaks to, or touches him. He may also want to sleep all the time, feel- ing very tired or listless. The child may also be glassy -eyed with prolonged staring. Many parents have described a hostile look on their child's face and often they become combative. During this stage the child may, also develop twit- ching and jerking movements such as seizures. In the disorientation stage, the child becomes confused, seemingly lost in time. For example, he may find his way into the bathroom but will not find his way out. The child may be able to carry out simple re- quests such as brushing his teeth, only with deliberate and basic step by step in- structions. This stage can last a few minutes or several hours. The child becomes generally hostile and unable to recognize family members and familiar surroundings during the hostility stage. The child is frequently combative and aggressive, kicking, lashing out and biting. He may moan and scream incessantly and abnormally, and no measure of reassurance willquiet him. He may demonstrate unusual strength, taking several adults to restrain him. ' The final stage is when the child, enters a semi -comatose state, responding sluggishly and only after vigorous prodding. Soon, a deep coma develops with no response. Death, if it is to occur, follows usually as a result of swelling of brain tissue. This can occur the first day or as long as several weeks later. The average time from the vomiting stage to death is three to five days. While he was speaking to the Goshen Mother's Club, Mr. Gee stressed that any parent who recognizes these symptons, should take their child to the doctor or hospital and tell them the symptoms and. that they suspect Reye's Syndrome. A blood test can be done to determine if it is Reye's or not. Statistically, the earliest diagnosed cases have the greatest survival rate. Choir helps wit „h musical. hour HURONVIEW - The Huronview choir and interested residents provided a musical hour for the ladies on 2nd Floor on April 1. Betty Rogers led in the singing and Frank 'Bissett accompanied at the piano. This hour of pleasure is enjoyed by the ladies, and it is rewarding to hear them singing along with the rest. Many of them still remember the words to some of the old gospel tunes. Ceramic classes were held on Tuesday afternoon for the people who are interested in this craft. ' Another popular singalong took • place Wednesday afternoon, and there was a very good attendance. Mike Botermans led in the singing of sacred songs as well as some standard ballads,, accompanied by Frank Bissett. Mid -week Bible study was held April 4 in , the chapel with Mrs. Prouty in charge. Elsie Henderson was at the organ and played for the hymns. Mike Botermans sang a solo. Traditional music was part of the theme at the Easter Sunday morning worship. Rev. Norman Pick was in charge, and for his message he spoke on Christ's Crucifixion and Resurrection. During the service them choir sang. Mike Botermans sang in 'fine , tenor voice. Huronview welcomes Mrs. Elizabeth Plants from Goderich, and Mrs. Margaret Case from Seaforth who have come to live at Huronview. To the family of the late Mr, Or- val Powell, sympathy is expressed.
