Fashion show
for, epilepsy
in Benmiller
Dr. John Girvin, chairman of the Depart --
merit of Clinical Neurological Science and
co-director of the University Hospital
Epilepsy Unit, was in Benmiller over the
weekend. He wasn't performing surgery or
lecturing as you might expect, rather, he
was modelling clothes.
Dr. Girvin was just one of many notable
personalities who took part in the Third An-
nual Fashion Show for Epilepsy sponsored
by the Huron/Bruce/Perth Epilepsy
Chapter and held at the Benmiller Inn. The
purpose or the fashion show istwo-fold, says
Marj Vere, co-ordinator of the local. chapter.
"The annual show is a great way to -create
public awarness for epilepsy," said Mrs.
Vere, "and it acts as a good way to raise
much needed funding for continuing
research." •
1n addition to Dr. Girvin, fine fashions
were expertly modelled by Judge John
McGarry of London, Clinton's firechief Fred
Lobb, and Goderich physician Dr. Derek
Pearce among others. Two other models of
note included Kathy Bromley of Blyth and
Rob Baker of Hensall. Both Kathy and Rob
have undergone surgery, performed by Dr.
Girvin, to correct their epilepsy disorders.
This mont:;, Kathy will celebrate six months
without a seizure while Rob has been seizure
free for almost three years.
Aside from viewing the latest in fall and
winter fashions provided by local mer-
chants, fashion show goers had an oppor-
tunity to gain a greater understanding about
the chronic disorder of the central nervous
system which. effects so many people.
"We have two mottos here," said Mrs.
Vere, "It's not what you think, and I'm the
same as everyone else. Public awarness is
very important in our work."
November is National Epilepsy Month
across Canada and the Annual Fashion
Show for Epilepsy was an excellent way to
kick off the campaign. Attendance ,for the
show was very good and everyone, including
the nervous models, certainly had a good
time while gaining a greater understanding
about epilepsy.
The third annual Fashion Show, sponsored by the Huron/Bruce/Perth Epilepsy Chapter
last weekend at Benmiller, showed'off the finest in fall and winter fashions and gained some
much needed public awarness for epilepsy. Models for the show included Marg Hill ( shown
here), co-director of the University Hospital Epilepsy Unit Dr. John Girvin, Goderich physi-
cian Dr. Derek Pearce, Judge John McGarry of London, among others. Even the youngsters
got into the act which amply kicked off November as National Epilepsy Month in Canada.

REV. PETER BALDWIN
ST. GEORGE'S CHURCH
Paul: "My Brothers and Sisters,
whatever is true, whatever is honourable,
whatever is just, whatever is pure,
whatever is bvely, whatever is gracious, if
there is any excellence, if there is anything
worthy of praise, think about these things.
Put into practice what you have learned and
received 'and heard and seen in me: these
things do in your work and the God of peace
will be with you." (Phillippians 4:8-11.)
More and more events and facts flow in
upon us these days, all reminding us that we
here on earth are all indeed brothers and
sisters. That we are dependent upon one
another, and that how we get arong together
on planet earth is critical for our very sur-
vival as a species! We are all in the same
great adventure of life on this tiny planet,

More and more we are coming to realize
that in the circumstances, the highest call-
ing to our humanity is the call to serve one
another. The call to service is reflected in
some words of the great Louis Pasteur. "In
what way can I be of service to humanity?
My time and energy belong to humankind."
Service, then, is the hallmark of the
humanitarian, but especially of the Chris-
tian. We need to care for others, and to serve
them. However, we must guard against tak-
ing on the problems of others at the expense
of our own emotional overcare. Rather, we
do need to care but to leave the deep and
final care and love to God, and His eternity.

I like the words of an.unknown author that
seem to me.toArike the -right balance of one
called to serve: "I-An—Mut One - But Am
One; I Cannot Do Everything, But I Can Do
Something. What I Can Do, By The Grace Of
God, I Will Do!
Finally; you must be of one mind, you
must have sympathy with one another, and
live in brotherly and sisterly love. You must
be humble -minded, and have a tender-
hearted attitude to all.
Do.not return evil for evil; but on the con-
trary, give blessing, for it was to give and
receive 'blessing that you were called." (1
Peter 3:8-10.)
Prayer: Merciful Lord, grant to your
faithful people pardon and peace, that we
may be cleansed from all our sins and serve
you with a quiet mind; through Jesus Christ
our Lord, who is alive and reigns with, you
and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for
ever. Amen.
