Pace 10 Tin; Canadian Statesman, Bowmanvillc, Wednesday, February 10, 1999 St. Vincent Volunteers Helping Others by Mike Flynn Pat and Ken Rowe, a retired couple, work as volunteers for St. Vincent De Paul. On Tuesday they visited visited our school to receive a donation of money from one of the classes in the school. It seems that just a few dollars contributed by each student is enough to make a big difference. I interviewed Pat and Ken and found out about their organization and their position within it. "All the people who work for St. Vincent Dc Paul arc volunteers, so we rely heavily on the donations, HELPING OUT -- Pat Rowe works hard gathering food for the needy at the St. Vincent De Paul Society. She credits area students for contributing enough food to keep the service going between drives. especially from schools. If it wasn't for the students, we wouldn't have enough to serve the less fortunate." fortunate." And it's not only the students, but the public who donates money and food. There is a weekly collection at a number of churches in the area and several food drives throughout the year. St. Vincent Dc Paul volunteers help the less fortunate in giving them food, helping to pay bills, pay for train tickets and help to find shelter for them. The winter months arc hardest for the needy and most help is needed during this difficult time. Pat and Ken would like to thank Fr. Garry for allowing allowing food to be stored in the basement of St. Joseph's, the public for being so generous (especially around Christmas, Easter and Thanksgiving), the generosity of CWL, The Knights of Columbus and especially especially the schools in the surrounding area (St. Stephen's High and Elementary, St. Mary's, St. Joseph's, St. Elizabeth's, Mother St. Stephen's Secondary School Teresa). Basically, Pat and Ken will help the less fortunate fortunate in any way they can, whether it be through buying prescriptions, prescriptions, giving away food, or just sitting sitting down and talking with someone. The couple caters to The Clarington Manor, which houses about 30 men and would normally normally be on the streets, as well as many others. "If it wasn't for St. Stephen's and the other schools, our work wouldn't be possible. possible. We can't thank you enough. We appreciate all your wonderful help and for thinking of others less fortunate. We arc always very thankful to the students for allowing us to serve the less fortunate." Pat and Ken arc probably the most humble and thankful people I've ever met.

Grant R.P.T. A Case of Left Knee Pain Question: Telma I have left knee pain. Could you tell me your approach to the evaluation and treatment of knee pain? 1 will illustrate my approach to evaluation and treatment with the following case study. My patient came in with left knee pain secondary to knee problems problems from his high school days and he reported that his knee pain was aggravated aggravated by running and skating. When I examined his knee, the pain was on the inner aspect of the knee joint. It was localized to around the joint line and around the knee cap or patella. We found that on examination, his hamstrings hamstrings were tight and his knee had good joint mobility, mobility, but he had a lot of tenderness tenderness on the inside of the knee joint. I did a whole body evaluation evaluation and found that his head was shifted right on his neck. This predisposed his body weight to fall over his right leg, flattening the right aich of the foot. Hence, there was a twist put on the left lower log and a considerable strain on the kneo because the left lower leg now lias to twist internally internally In order to compensate compensate lor the body being tilted tilted to the right. I did a trial treatment that day witli electrical acupuncture acupuncture to his right jaw, Iris loft ankle and his loft hamstring hamstring insertion. i We checked for active movements pre and post treatment. The active movement that we did was hip mobility, back mobility and neck mobility. All of these improved post treatment. treatment. The patient was also taught stretches and strengthening as part of his rehab program. Interestingly enough, his right arch reformed, it has noticeably improved and was not as flat immediately after the treatment. The approach that I use in evaluation and treatment treatment of injuries is called the G.A.M.E. plan and it stands for the Grant Approach to Musculoskeletal Evaluation and Treatment. I have developed it over a period of four years and it employs a whole body approach to evaluation. The purpose of evaluation evaluation is to find out where movement In the patient's body Is restricted. The lack of movement contributes to other joints being subject to more strain and it is these joints and muscles that end up presenting symptoms. In evaluation we are trying to find the contributing contributing factors to the patient's symptoms, so that treatment treatment can be used more to treat causes , rather than to moroly treat the symptoms.
