Thrifty show

was a smash

A THRIFTY FASHION show
slaged by volunteers Oct. 23
turned into a smash success.

styles from the collection of the
thrift store at Mills Memorial
Hospital.

Memorial Hospital Auxilliary,
says $1,730 was raised at the
event — far exceeding expecta-
tions,

The money will help buy a new
defibrillator for the hospital,

Bullock says ail 200 tickets for
the fashion show sold out and she
says the thrift store at the hospital
has cven scen more business
since the show,

“We feel really good about it,”’
she said. ‘‘We think the aware-
ness is going to increase sales in
our shop.’””

Sales last Tuesday were $99 —-
up from the more typical $30.

DIABETES

Disease without
cure hits boomers

A MEDICAL, financial and so-
cial lime bomb,

That’s what diabetes is being
lagged by the national organiza-
lion that fights ihe disease.

The Canadian Diabetes Associ-
ation is beginning a large public
education program aimed al in-
creasing awareness of the disease.

Since 90 per cent of diabetes
cases occur after age 40, concern
over its impact on society is
growing as Baby Boomers age.

Medical costs associated with
the disease now top $3 billion and
the financial tol] is expected to
rise if diabetes projections that
one in five Canadians may devel-
op it hold true into the next
century,

Some stats:

m@ OVER ONE MILLION Ca-
nadians have the disease and it

has no known cure.

W@ DIABETES is the leading
cause of blindness and amputa-
tions, and doubles the chance of
heart attack and stroke,

W@ OVERALL, diabctes is the
third leading cause of death by
discase.

Common symptoms of diabetes
are increased thirst, frequent
urination, weight change, changes
in appelitc, nausea and vomiting,
tingling or numbness in hands
and feet, irritability, tiredness,
itchy skin, blurred vision, poor
healing (cuts and wounds)

Tf you’d like to know more
about diabetes, contact the Ter-
tace branch of the Canadian
Diabetes Association, at 635-
4654 or Call the Diabetes
Resource Centre at 1-800-268-
4656.
