Ransberryg Hold Dance For Kidney Foundation Kidney disease represents a potentially dangerous threat to one million Canadians today, warns Joan Ransberry, member of the Kidney Foundation Foundation of Canada (Metropolitan (Metropolitan Toronto Chapter). Ms. Ransberry, a resident of Ajax and formerly of the Orono-Newcastle area explains explains that Durham Region comes under the umbrella of the kidney foundation's Toronto chapter. "A hard fact to swallow is: kidney disease can strike anyone anyone at any time, at any age. Your kidneys are the organs which wash the impurities from your blood stream. If they do not function properly, poisons quickly build up in your blood,' she explains. 15 years ago, Joan didn't give kidney disease any thought. "I didn't know kidney disease may cause irreparable irreparable damage on these vital organs. I didn't know when kidney failure develops, all that remains is chronic dialysis dialysis (blood purification) and hopefully a successful kidney transplant to return the patient patient to a normal life." Ransberry learned about kidney disease when her then 21 year old brother, Don, lost all kidney function. "Don's case is a success story. After a chronic dialysis, he received a successful kidney transplant in 1968. Through tremendous medical treatment in a Toronto Toronto based hospital and research into kidney disease by the Canadian Kidney Foundation, my brother now lives a normal life." Ms. Ransberry describes her family as "run-of-the- mill," yet a private family. "I'm not interested in going into the toll kidney disease took on my brother and on family members. My interest is to educate the public about the prime function of the Kidney Kidney Foundation and some hard cold facts about kidney disease," she says. She explains the prime purpose purpose of the Kidney Foundation is to support and encourage research into the incidence, causes, treatment and prevention prevention of all kidney diseases, and to foster a better understanding understanding and knowledge of this major health problem. She says while "research is an abstract word, it buys results." results." "Last year $1.5 million was allocated to vital projects: projects: fellowships totalling $400,000 ... over $75,000 to student student researchJeams.... and over $1.1 milljip given to support support professionals in full-time kidney research... What these figures don't tell you is the flip-side of the research coin and the projects that were not initiated. Without sufficient funds, it takes us twice as long to do our job," says Ms. Ransberry. Ransberry. The Kidney Foundation of Canada allocates 17 per cent of its funds to Support Services. Services. Ms. Ransberry says, "Kidney disease can be a knockout blow to the family. Travel is limitèd, income is cut, expenses soar... isolation follows, domestic tensions escalate ... and those who reject the idea of donating organs following death." After locating a kidney for transplant, The Organ Retrieval Retrieval and Exchange System is kicked into action. "In most of Canada's leading hospitals computer centres match donor kidneys, suddenly available available to waiting recipients. This system has accounted for over 1,282 kidney transplants since its inception in 1976," says Ms. Ransberry. Ms. Ransberry points out that she is not involved in a medical career. "Anyone suspecting problems in the kidney area should consult a doctor." However, she outlines outlines the signs of kidney diseases: They are: burning or difficulty while urination, passage of blood - appearing urine, more frequent urination, urination, particularly at night, Mayor Opens New Premises for Cleaning Supply Shop A CL BA c:\jpPiy CO' NlNû d If SERVIC- AT L M ' ' 1 * odUCTS i "-re, Newcastle Mayor Garnet Rickard was on hand last week to welcome "The Wash Basin" to its new location on King St. east, in Bowmanville.
