1 Tho Canadian Statesman. Bowmanville, January 13,1988 A: Application Reversed From Page One their neighbors with proposals for keeping the vehicles on their lands, he said. "An approach should have been made to us before the application was made," said Mr. Guy. However, he added that he "would not call for prosecution to continue until the applicant has come to us (with plans)." At Monday's meeting, Councillor Ann Cowman offered to be the mediator so the two sides could come ■together to discuss the issue. Irwin Hamilton, a lawyer representing representing several neighbors opposed to the rezoning, told councillors that approval approval of the rezoning would be a "significant shift in planning". "You are passing a by-law that allows allows industrial use in a residential area," he said. "These three applications have no planning merits at all," he said. "These applications were simply brought to avoid prosecution," he added. A special gift from his Mother Early Christmas for Floyd Argue For Floyd Argue, the best Christmas present he could ever hope for actually arrived about a month early. It was on November 26 when Floyd and his mother Mrs. Wilma Rudkin, went into St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto for surgery. And when the operation was over, Floyd had one of his Mom's kidneys in his body. Two separate surgical teams successfully carried out the kidney transplant. Although Floyd still has a lot of recuperation time ahead of him and is not out of the woods yet, his doctors are more than pleased with the progress he's made in the month since the transplant operation. As for his Mother Wilma, she's feeling just fine after donating a kidney, and in fact is taking a quick vacation in the sunny south before returning to her job as a press operator at a factory in Bowman- ville in mid-January. Needless to say, when Floyd, his wife Joan, brothers and sisters and family got together for Christmas this year, there were smiles around. "It was a pretty good Christmas for Van Belle Floral Shoppes ...muen more than a flower store! Highway No. 2 • King SI. W., Oshawa • SlmcoeSt. N., Oshawa • 100 Dundee St. W Whitby us," Floyd told the Star in an interview interview at his home near Cadmus on Monday. His strength is returning day by day since the operation November 26, his colour has changed from ashen gray to healthy pink and he's looking forward to the spring when he expects to return to his job as a heavy equipment operator with the Scugog Township Roads department. Floyd, 43, began to develop kidney problems about a decade ago and his condition got progressively worse. Then a year ago November, while working on a snow plow, his brother accidently dropped a wrench which struck his forearm. Floyd didn't think much of this minor mishap at the time, but within a day or two, his arm was badly swollen, and his kidney condition condition began to get worse. He was rushed to St. Michael's in Toronto for emergency dialysis. By the spring of 1987, he was forced to take dialysis at St. Mike's twice a week. Meanwhile, doctors were looking for a suitable donor for a kidney. After testing Lloyd's Mom, Wilma, 59, and his two sisters, they determined determined that Wilma was the best candidate candidate to donate the organ. "I didn't give it a second thought," she said last week. "It was no big decision for me to go through with this." After her kidney was removed November 26 and placed in Floyd, she spent about a week in hospital, and other than the normal healing process following major surgery, she's felt no ill effects. Floyd spent 19 days in hospital following the surgery. His new kidney began to function almost immediately immediately after the operation and so far there have been no signs of I^cUkJkuu Geàamid Classes and Seminars still available for the Winder Session "Come see ou| wMteware* and suppliés plus all CHRISTMAS Greenware." 20% OFF Call today JÊr space is limited lÊ%iltAoj(/UL 623-9668 r/ . 122 Waverley Rd.

However, he still has to go to St. Mike's once a week for tests and has blood work done at the Port Perry Hospital twice each week to monitor his recovery, and check for signs of rejection. He says the danger period for rejection rejection remains for six months to a year after the transplant. Even though Floyd was able to keep working up to almost the date of the transplant surgery, his condi-, . lion made him constantly tired and' twice a week he was forced to travel ■ to Toronto for the evening dialysis treatments. His boss and fellow employees with the Roads department department were very understanding, he told the Star. But the doctors told him he had to have the transplant or face dialysis the rest of his life. As for Wilma who so willingly donated a kidney to her son, she'd. go through it all again, but jokes that she doesn't "have any extra spare parts to give away now." For Floyd, the gift from his mother means he can now look forward forward to leading a normal life.
