Counselor To Address Fall Health Seminar Robert Meyer, a counselor for McHenry County college, will address more than 90 medical and social workers Oct. 8 at a Fall seminar for health professionals spon sored by the Chicago Heart association.

The seventh is the big day for Virginia Hodges, Michelle Koch and Emily Warren, who turns 10. done at St. Francis hospital in Evanston with patients who have had heart attacks and heart surgery. The research project with heart attack patients in three age grbups was done as part of his Ph. D. work at Nor thwestern university. Meyer explains that his research reveals that heart attacks cause the most turmoil for adults between the ages of 40 and 55. Older adults accept their heart attacks fairly easily, Meyer said, once they are assured that they will not become total invalids. Young adults, of course, go through a severe crisis when they experience a heart attack, but it is less likely to cause a major change in their plans for the rest of their lives than it is in the case of adults in the middle years, Meyer said his research shows. Meyer added that for most adults, heart surgery is a positive experience while a heart attack is a negative experience. Meyer 's research also goes into how the families of patients with heart disease are affected by their illness. He will share the podium at the conference with four other speakers. The seminar, which deals with heart attacks, is titled "Change of Heart: Crisis and Adjustment". Meyer, who joined the staff at MCC in 1976, works at the college's outreach office in Woodstock as the coordinator of the rehabilitation program at the McHenry county jail. The program is funded by McHenry county CETA, the McHenry county 706 board and the Illinois Department of Correction. AFDC DURING PREGNANCY Gov. James R. Thompson approved legislation to in clude childless pregnant women in the state's Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) program.

He hopes to move the effective date forward to Dec. 1 from the legislated effective date of July 1, 1961. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuHiiiniiiiittMiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiunHiiHiiinHiHiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimnmHiiNnMHiiiiii FIND OUT ABOUT YOUR HEALTH-FREE First McHenry County Health Fair A series of screening tests to help spot potential or present health problems, conducted by more than 20 cooperating organizations in an outpouring of community spirit by volunteers determined to im prove your good health.
