Thursday, May 21, 1964 (See. 1) The Sandy (Ore.) Post Zs Announced Nell's Notes (By a local practicing physician) My daughter and her husband off to the city for the evening in celebration of their birthdays. They were accompanied by the Alan Gundersons and the Richard Haines. Next month we will have son George’s birthday to get through. They should discontinue having them cause it just makes me that much older, and I hate to give in to it. So very sorry to hear that Lois Volbrecht is in the hospital and wish her the very speediest of recoveries. Jimmy Green« alt took Mert over to Chemult and turned around and came right back so she could be here In time to vote. Kinda long days driving, but we thank her for it. It seems so funny to me that the people that don’t bother to get out and vote, are usually the ones that do all the complaining be cause the person they wanted to get in office never made it. At least if you have voted you feel you have the right to gripe about the results. Have come to the con clusion that they should have let the adjoining counties vote on the Delta Park Lome and the measure would have passed. It would pro bably be the people in the out lying districts that would be the most frequent visitors to the Dome. They should look into these things. And I could go on but won’t.

Duplicate bridge is played every Monday evening at 7:30 and the public is invited. The next Mas ter Point game is June 1. The sudden appearance of croup in the middle of the night is a frightening experience for parents, and justifiably so. One parent should immediately begin making a warm moist at- mosphere for the child while the other phones the doctor. If you have lots of hot water, go into the bathroom with the child, close the door and run a hot shower or tub to steam the room. This will be an all night job, so plan to get moderately com fortable and to stay awake so your child won’t get near the hot water. You can stay in the bathroom or prepare a tent and move the child to it when it is ready. Avoid going in and out of the warmth to a chilly room with him. The tent may be made with sheets over the crib or a comfortable chair for you to sit in and hold him. Boil water in a vaporizer, a pan on a hot plate, a coffee maker, or on your stove. If the room is quite small a tent may not be needed. It is important to reassure the child and keep him calm by your be havior. Breathing the warm moist air usually Improves the hoars- ness and squeakey breathing and cough dramatically. In the meantime, if you are unable to reach your doctor, call another. After steaming is under way, general instructions include the following: An adult should stay with the child and stay awake as long as there are symptoms of difficult breathing. The child should be kept calm. Try to keep the nose open with drops or as directed by the doctor. Normal feedings may be offered but not forced, and fluids should be off ered frequently. Aspirin may be used for fever. Other prescription medications are useful. After all symptoms are gone, wake and check the room temperature ev ery 2-3 hours and listen to the sleeping child’s breathing. Plan to sleep in the same room as the child for 3 nights as croup often recurs. Keep your doctor informed if anything changes after he sees your child. Children who have croup are usually under 5. There may have been no preceeding illness, though a mild cold may have been present. It often seems precipitated by a change in weather, chilling, or unusual activity. There may be a family tendency and the attacks commonly recur. If your child has had croup and sounds a bit suspicious start steaming before the attack develops-.youmay avoid it. Most croup is due to a viral laryngitis, but it may be assoc iated with other infections or even a foreign body (small object, pea nut, etc.) One form of croup may come on at any time, day or night, and is associated with a real chest cold. Steam helps some, but not much. If your doctor can’t reach you take the child with this kind of croup in a warm pre heated car to a hospital.
