Kidney Walk for Halton Region set for Sept. 19 This fall, the Kidney Foundation of Canada is inviting Oakville residents to take steps toward the fight against kidney disease. The 2015 Kidney Walk for Halton Region will take place Saturday, Sept. 19 at the Bronte Creek Provincial Park's Breckon Shelter. "Today, one in 10 Canadians has kidney disease and millions more are at risk," according to a media release issued by the Kidney Foundation of Canada. "Nearly 10,000 Ontarians depend on life-sustaining dialysis treatments several times a week, more than 1,000 are waiting for a kidney transplant, and countless others live with reduced kidney function that may have gone undetected." Local residents looking to take part in the five-kilometre walk can create a team and register online at www.kidneywalk.ca. Walks are taking place in 41 communities across Ontario throughout September and early October. "Every step you take on your Kidney Walk journey will provide hope for those living with kidney disease when they need it most," stated the release. "A diagnosis of kidney disease is life-changing and impacts the entire family. That's why teams of friends and families will join together to walk to support their loved ones." Registration for the Oakville event opens at 10 a.m., with a warm-up at 10:45 a.m., followed by the start of the walk at 11 a.m. Funds raised from the event go to the Kidney Foundation of Canada and help improve the lives of those affected by kidney disease through research, government advocacy, peer support, education and programs. 33 | Thursday, August 20, 2015 | OAKVILLE BEAVER | www.insideHALTON.com Today, one in 10 Canadians has kidney disease and millions more are at risk.

HEARING SCIENCES "When I am in a group, I just smile because I can't follow the conversation" Many people feel frustrated when they can't participate in small group conversations. This is often due to the room noise overwhelming the soft high frequency speech sounds that are so critical for speech clarity. Poor acoustics such as large rooms, restaurants or cars add to the confusion. Today's hearing instruments adjust automatically to optimize speech understanding in all situations. Digital hearing aids are quite good at isolating the speech information and controlling the background noise while speech is present. With practice most people find they are able to participate in conversations with ease again. Come in for a no obligation, 2 week TEST DRIVE* and prepare to be amazed! But what about your spine?
