RECOGNITION Another Lakemoor resident has received a birthday card from President and Mrs. Ronald Reagan. Mrs. Florence Koch was thusly honored on her eighty-third birthday Wed­ nesday, Jan. 25. Neighbors including Bertha Tiemann, wished Florence health and peace on her day, with cake and coffee and a friendly visit. TIME TO HEAL Michael Douglass, Karen and Del's oldest son, has been un­ dergoing treatment at McHenry Hospital for an undetermined problem, perhaps the result of food poisoning. Michael had not been feeling well since Jan. 2, causing concern for his family and friends. Well wishers in­ clude the library community, who remember Michael's help in moving the library contents to its present home, which was his Eagle Scout project. ? An. update oh Mrs. Helen Slovak ol Lilymoor, who suf-" fered a stroke. She is now in a nursing home in Chicago where her daughters can easily visit her. Cards of remembrance would make her days more comfortable. The snow man in Dimitfi Peliwan's yard is still growing. Dimitri has not oeen too well, so how the snow man keeps growing is still a mystery. A broken wrist was the result of a fall by Dan Vacondio of Lakemoor, while doing his morning ritual of getting the newspaper at 5 a.m. A two-day stay at the hospital, plus a cast to keep his arm immobile while it heals are reminders to watch those icy spots on the roadsides.

COLD FACtS Frozen pipes were a concern of many householders with our two record-breaking cold spells this winter. The Foss family in Lakemoor were plagued with pipe problems both times. On Christmas, Hedie had ten people for dinner, and no water, plus no way to dispose of used water. So what does one do with the dinner dishes? Mother Foss packed thfe dirty dishes in boxes, took them home with her to McHenry, and put them in her dishwasher. of tlie same-frozen pipes. Shortly, friends brought in water, eight gallons of it lined up in her kitchen, plus the sink full of used dishes. Rick put some heat on the iced pipes and soon all was back working, even Hedie with the dishes. Rick is getting tired of these cold problems. He would much rather be up in Alaska, just witnessing the cold and snow and icy beauty from an airplane, as he did on a trip there last year.

To date over 60 par­ ticipants have been diagnosed as having diabetes. About 90 percent of those persons with diabetes have Type II or non-insulin dependent diabetes. Obesity is a major factor for those with this form of the disease. Type H diabetes can often be controlled by diet and exercise, although oral medication or insulin may be required. A lack of prompt and proper treatment can result in serious complications: kidney failure, heart disease, in­ fections, and blindness. Those persons considered to be high risk individuals: overweight, over "40, have a family history of diabetes, and women who have given birth to a baby weighing over nine pounds should consult their family physician. There are over 400,000 residents of Northern Illinois affected by diabetes, and the Northern Illinois Affiliate of the American Diabetes Association (ADA) serves and supports these residents through patient, public, and professional education programs, research, and a summer camp for children-teens with diabetes.
