San- tosh, Scappoose, a victim of kidney failure, has been admitted to the life-savirig treatment program of the Kidney Association of Oregon He was admitted to the program on June 8, and is now in the midst of a training course at the KAO- supported center at Good Samari tan Hospital in Portland. Prior to entering the KAO pro gram. Putyrski underwent a screening to determine his medical and psychological suitability for training and home artificial kidney machine treatment. During his training period at the hospital center, he will receive “ runs” on his artificial kidney machine three times a week, which will cleanse his blood of impurities, which is the function of normal, healthy kidneys He is also learning the function and operation of his machine so that he will be able to use it in his home when he com pletes his training course. John Putyrski is a railroad swit chman for the Portland Terminal Railroad Company. He and his wife, Vera, are the parents of a daughter. Linda, 15, a high school sophomore. Putyrski is one of 33 Oregonians who are currently being treated in the Kidney Association of Oregon dialysis program around the state. Money needed for the training and treatment of each new KAO patient for the first six months is about $10,(MM). Thereafter the cost per pa tient is approximately $4,000 each year. Most Oregonians cannot afford these staggering costs. Therefore, the patients depend upon the fund raising ability of KAO to assist with their medical financial needs. In order to provide training, treatment, artificial kidney ma chines and medical supplies for its patients around the state and to expand the program to admit other new patients, the Kidney Associa tion depends upon tax deductible donations from the public during its current $200,000 statewide fund drive Anyone wishing to assist the fund drive may send donations to KAO, Box 342, St. Helens. The Kidney Association also receives financial assistance from the State of Ore gon's Division of Vocational Reha bilitation. The basic function of the non-pro fit Kidney Association of Oregon is to save the lives of Oregonians who have developed kidney failure and to provide continuing treatment so the patients can work, raise fam i lies and be useful people, Environmental Grant Awarded VERNONIA.
