Mental Attitude

First Aid and

Home Nursing (St. John Ambulance)

A sick person's mental attitude is very important. Activities and interests are needed for content- ment - and will speed recovery says 31. John Ambulance in its Home Nursing course.

A hobby such as weaving. paint- ing or needlework helps pass the lime enjoyably. An important nurs- .ng duty is to find the means of diversion which will arouse the patierifs interest and not overt.-ix his strength. Games. puzzles. handi- crafts. visits from relatives or friends. reading to the patient, or placing his bed where he can see through a window are some of the ways by which the patient's mind can be directed away from him- self and his problems.

. . .

Also to be taken into account are emotions such as fear. love. hate. and svmpathy Vl'l‘llCl] have an im- portant bearing on health. Fear and worry can play an active parl. in creating such problems as constipation_ vomiting and asthma. Unhappy personal relationships and

.nsi=curit_v may cause illness and irtard recovery despite the best of medical care. However learn-

ing to face the problems of daily living in a practical and objective maiiiier uill help to give strength in times of stress.

. .

The following measures may help the patient and the family in mak- ing the necessary adjustments to sickness.

Do not disturb the routine of ihe household moie than is neces- sary to provide adequate care for the patient.

Make other members of the film-

0

ily feel that they can assist In the care of the patient. Explain why it is necessary to

exclude visitors or to permit short visits only.

Make plans to keep children a- mused or out of the way if the patient must have quiet.

Reassure the patient and other members of the family and strengthen their confidence in the doctor.

Puncluality, reliability and cheer- fulnus in the person who is tak- ing care of the patient will inspire confidence. Conversation is im- porlant in promoting or retarding recovery. It is necessary to know when to talk and when to keep quiet.

One of the most important things for the "home-nurse" to remember is discretion. For instance, infor-

marion concerning the patient‘: affairs should not be relayed to others.

That Body of Yours By James W. Barton. M. D.

THE TIHCATIVII-INT OF ASTHMA Bl’ ACTH AND COBTISONE

Because s large number of cases of asthma have been helped and some cured by the use of ACTH and cortisone. these two drugs are being used widely in the treatment of this disease. In some cases a few injections of these powerful wea- pons have worked miracles.

In the Medical Clinics of North America. Dr. Ethan Brown states that ACTH and cortisone have the effect of preventing attacks of asthma as long as they have been used continuously. In cases where bronchospaam is caused by alopy alone (overaensitivlty) the relief is quick and complete. but discontinu- ing the treatment may bring on at- tacks at the next time the person is exposed to an allergen isubstancr to which the person is allergic or ovorsensitlvet.

In those in whom asthma is due to chionlc infection. the relief of symptoms is not as satisfactory and does not last as long unless drug: are used in addition.

Patients suffering with broncho- spasm due to physical allergy may be markedly benefited while those whose wheezing is caused reflexly or emotionally may be helped to some degree. Those who have chro- nlc disease present may obtain llLLlE relief although their general health may improve under treatment with ACTH and cortisone. However, pat- ients with such chronic infections as tubcrciiosis or heart disease will not benefit at all.

These two drugs should not be used unlers the physician has ruled out the presence of diabetes, pcpilc ulcer. high blood pressure, congea- tlve heart failure. defective kidneys. gland disorders, However, Dr. Brown states that under controlled conditions and In matters of life and death, there is no contradiction to the use of any drug. In his ovin series of 300 patients. approximately 225 were tri-ated with cortisone by mouth and only 20 of whom took it by injection, With ACTH, approx- imately 10 m‘ 12 patients havr been treated by injection into veins and another dosen have had injec- tion into muscles. Only 5 to 10 per cent war» not helped. Those not relieved by ACTH have not been benefited by cortisone ACTH is considered the fectlve of the two drugs.

Wednesday. June 9, 1954

Now the June days pass . . , th. long days which will catch in the seine of their time the best takings of summer: the marvel of open- ing rose buds. of silky-petauea but. tercup of white frillcd daisies the crimson of clover and wild straw- berries rubyred against a sunny laneside. But not. yet. Not. these days which have been coming to us mist-scarfed and ‘cool.

"However, there‘: good growth — yea surprising!" we overheard Jame; say to Rob this morning eyes noting the misty damp lingering along the hilltops. "If we just had those last. patches sowed, how fast they would come! "It. is at Aldei-lea that odd pieces remain to be seeded. a rite which given favorable weather would soon be; done.

This spring to the complete sat- isfaction of the older farmer who is neither proprietor. foreman nor yet one of the help, but an ad- mixture of all three there is an area of new land being brought to cultivation. Just ii bulldozed cor- ner of stump—land but sufficient to prove to him as he says “some- thing is being done on the place."

so in time not favorable to other items of field work, James and the younger farmer have be- taken themselves back to that‘. vir- gin patch to pick up roots and gather stones and altogether fit it for its first seeding.

“Isn't there an e:l5l(‘l' way . . .. But.

“No". James said. “and besides you wouldn't call that part of clearing land hard work. Why

that’: nearing the last of it——the end is in sight then. Maybe, you will come to help us? It's a great way to strengthen muscles . . . much better" he offered with I1

A small or larger corner of new crop, what will it mean to these farms? Instead of idle land, the comforting assurance of more plentiful supplies in granary and loft. against the long season of stabling ahead.

Despite the fact that the pas- tures have by this claimed most of the livestock. the vchoring still makes its inroads an the time of these farmers. The calves and the fattening cattle remain indoors and we also have our cares in the pig- gerlea. Night-lights then continu- ing through the early morning hours indicate new or expected ar- rivals. There are at intervals grad- ustlona to the growing pens; and a clean - overalled farmer and s truck backed to those doors tell of- the marketing.

June now swells the buds in the orchard; it tucks away nests in intriguing nooks, low in meadow. or high in bough, cave or rafter to keep a little fellow busy and in- terested these days. so busy he comes weary to his ed. But wholly refreshed by his seep his is the best voice of the morning. bright. merry and full of happy anticipa- lion over what the new day will give.

Several weeks ago, after I sat- urday night. date. she told my son she didn't want. to go steady any longer_ No further explanation was forthcoming. She said she'd like to remain friends. to date occas- ionally but not on a steady basis. The boy is heartbroken and at a loss to understand her decision. I think he should stop seeing her altogether, since he is so upset I- bout the situation.

Since Joan doesn't seem to have the qualities conducive to a happy. permanent relationship, the breakup ian‘t so tragic. Na- turally. at this point the young man doesn't realize this; only time can make this evident.

I agree iyith you that since he has been so deeply hurt. it‘s fool- ish for him to continue aecing Joan. but you can do no more than point that out. You'll accomplish no good by harping on the subject, iior will you help matters by call- ing " the girl's mother. Let the young people work out their own problem. It's the kind of prepara- tion they need for the future.
