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.

cate bridge at the Mt. Hood Country

the news of the club. The Bow
mans presented the club a huge
birthday cake.
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.
