COUNTY NURSES HEAR DIRECTOR OF MENTAL CENTER "•'mk is Kevin < , 4 ye • i McHenry < i 19bd master Seal noy looking ar a picture ot Bozo, the clown, and his duck, Quack Quack. He is the son of Mr and Mrs. William Cooley of 365 Harold street., Crystai Lake. Kevin Cooley has never-seen a real clown, but he always wanted to see one, so Jim Gray, physical therapist at the Easter Seal center, decided that perhaps a picture of a clown would do and rehabilitation would be quickened. Gary solicited the help of Dr. Bertha Shafer, president of the Easter Seal Society, and Mrs. Orrin Wolf, a Woodstock board member. Through their efforts the clown picture was painted by Mrs. Wolf's husband, a retired industrialist. Each time Kevin goes to the center for his treatments now he carries on a conversation with Bozo, who, he says, tells him when he is doing good and where he could do better. This little 4-year-old has so much faith that he tells everyone "some day I'm going to walk like Bozo." The physical therapist comments that Kevin's physical problems are complex and he will need to continue his physical therapy for quite some time. "Kevin," asserts the therapist, "was referred to us last summer for training to learn to walk, using his bilateral long leg braces and crutches. At the time of his initial referral he was unable to stand in the parallel bars due to the general body weakness from prolonged inactivity. Therapeutic exercises were used to release tight muscles and to gain muscle strength primarily in the hip regions." Gray asserts that the ultimate goal in the treatment process is for Kevin to become completely independent in walking and as functional as possible in the activities of daily living. Dick Tracy, whose creator, Chester Gould, is the 1963 Easter Seal campaign chairman, is also one of Kevin's special friends. "Dick Tracy," he says, "told me that he wants people to return their Easter Seal money so other people that are hurt like I am, can eet well." The McHenry County Nurses' association will hold its next meeting on Thursday, April 11, at 8 p.m. at Memorial hospital, Woodstock. The speaker for the evening will be Stan? ley Blumberg, director of the Mental Health Center of McHenry County. Mr. Blumberg has been in psychiatric social work for many years, and was instrumental in organizing the mental health center here in McHenry.
