Doug Haugen of Castlegar, a
quadrapalegic for 10 years
notes that very little re-
‘search on spinal cord injuries
is being done in Canada or
the U.S.

He adds that there are
5,000 parapalegics and quad-
rapalegics in B.C. alone and
the list grows every year.

In 1983 there were 186
permanent spinal cord injur-
ies in B.C., an increase of 68
over the 1982 total of 118.

The breakdown of the 1983
figures shows that 78 of those
injuries were a result of
motor vehicle accidents, 31
were from falls, 19 were in-
dustrial, 14 were from
sports, nine were from mot-
oreycle accidents, seven from
diving, six from disease, four
from assault, four postoper-
ative, two from airplane
crash and 17 were classified
as other.

“Drive a Little to Save a Lot

DOWN BUT
_ NOT OUT

Editor's Note: The following is the conclusion of a letter
from John Munday, missionary in Quito, Equador.

June 2, 1984... “If you die I'll KEEL you!” threatened
Sara in Birmingham English heavily seasoned by her
Jewish-Spanish breeding. Dr. John Doerfer and his

i both HCJB ies, helped me into the

exceedingly grateful to our kind and unexpected bene-
factor and her group of helpers.

Earlier this week one of the older boys broke all
rules by charging around on our handsome, pregnant
mare who was to give birth in a month’s time. The black
stallion was prematurely born after that wild ride and
lived for two days before breathing his last.

I'm having to be very careful not to let my love for
animals dampen my love for my “delinquent” son, for I
was genuinely angry. It"s too much to nurse an asthmatic
heart into a grudge at the same time, so this morning,
despite another bad night of constant coughing and
wheezing I decided to combat a strong tendency towards
self-pity and return to a normal life. So I'm up finishing a
letter that should have been sent to you a long time ago.

Since starting this epistle on May 14 there have been
a few changes. We're apparently able to purchase the

back seat of their tiny Volkswagen-turned. 4
and within half an hour I was lying on my back in the
Emergency Ward at Vozandes Hospital.

In all, I was attended by close to 10 doctors including
interns. I was given an electrocardiogram, a heart x-ray
and an injection to bring my blood pressure down from
the sixth heaven. Then followed 24 hours in intensive
care and four days in my own private room.

The diagnosis: exhaustion, asthma, bronehitis and
the inevitable heart to complicate everything else. Most
of my vacation in hospital was accompanied by a liquid
diet — a red jello for breakfast, lunch and supper, with
warm tea and lemon, plus luke-warm water with the
suggestion of a chicken having bathed in it, earlier for
luneh and for supper

My bed was a three-piece automatic, but because of
the metal frame around each piece, I had to select one
piece in which to curl up or extend myself full length and
be sliced slowly into three equal pieces myself. But the
care on the part of the doctors, nurses, auxiliaries,
cleaning-ladies, etc., was excellent, and that, after all, is
the most important.

I had to oversee the hospitality and four-course
dinner for 80 Ecuadorian Evangelical ladies on Saturday
from my hospital bedside phone. Thanks to a willing band
of workers and table-waiters and the good graces of our
guests, all went smoothly

I had to cancel my participation in an assembly
conference on “worship.” Instead of listening to me, they
decided to fill the gap by worshipping which was 100 per
cent better. And on Monday night, a missionary friend
kindly took my place as speaker at the Alliance Academy
Grade 6 graduation.

On W I kept my with Shirley
Hart, the charming wife of the American Ambassador,
and was wafted into total elegance by one of her entour
age of gracious maids and butlers. After serving me a
glass of orange juice she gave me the grand tour of the
residence. Each guest room was a luxurious home-in
miniature, and the whole complex would make an ideal
setting for another Agatha Christie murder mystery

I was given the choice of the big, chauffeur-driven
limousine or the convertible Mercedes-Benz sports car
with seats for two. She claims the sports car to be her
husband's first love.

We went shopping in the Mercedes and within an
hour or two had spent the $2,000 (Canadian) she'd kindly
donated to “Diospaj Nan.” We're having six heavy-duty
pieces of brightly-painted playground equipment cus.
tom-built, to be installed here within a month things
like swings (three-in-a-row), see-saws or teeter-totters
(four in a row) parallel bars, trapezes, a merry-go-round
and a giant slide. There was enough money left over to
buy four shower-heads electrically adapted to give the
entire family hot showers at the turn of a tap. We are

needed transformer on a monthly basis; hence the switch
to playground equipment.

David, the new 14-year-old, is a well-built, well-man-
nered and welcome addition to our Diospaj Nan family
Alfonso is 11 years old and arrived on Monday, the same
day my 44-year-old daughter Sara decided she'd had
enough and moved into her oldest son’s apartment in
Quito.

Alfonso was orphaned five years ago when his
parents were killed in a car accident. He'd been living
alone in a room that cost him 30 cents a day, and working
as a very small waiter.

About a month ago he was run over by a car and
suffered internal injuries, a fractured arm and forehead, a
hemmorhaged eye and lost several teeth. Through
Vozandes Hospital's social worker, he's become my 35th
and is “home at last.”

For the past couple of months our mails have
dwindled to almost zero, so if anyone has written or sent
gifts that have not been acknowledged it is because they
have, unfortunately, not reached us (which includes
missionary friends as well)

When there is an economic crunch there is a
near-frantic search on the part of those-that-should-know
better for incoming cheques, and if a suspected letter
does not have the hoped-for financial reward, it is just
thrown away

For months and months, Radio Station HCJB suf.
fered in a similar way, but after repeated complaints the
necessary investigation was carried Sut, at least in part,
and I understand things are better for them now

A young artist friend is pleading with me to purchase
his two-month-old orphaned (male) bear. He's a delightful
little animal with a panda like face and an insatiable
curiosity about whatever part of the world he happens to
be in at the time

I've spent hours playing with him on my “sick bed”
but have resisted the temptation to add him to our family
1) because he costs too much, and 2) because when he
gets a little older he'll be big enough and strong enough to
eat my smaller children. Once again it’s @ matter of ~
priorities.

My spirits are still somewhat under the cir
cumstances which inchide continued coughing and
breathing difficulties and general weakness. But I think
I'm on the way up. I'd better be, for tomorrow is Sunday
and that is another big day with many guests and, I trust,
an extra-good attendance and response at our afternoon
service

All the children are in bed and I'm following imme
diately, so I'll leave you and love you and thank you again
for your encouragement and help in so many ways. Your
prayers are particularly needed and appreciated. God
bless you!

John Munday

Woman wor

TORONTO (CP) — A 62-year-old woman is taking on
the Law Society of Upper Canada on behalf of individuals
who feel they aren't getting justice.

By day, Emillie Weimer works in the busy office of a
Toronto doctor, but she returns home keen to start the
correspondence for the other activity in her life

On behalf of an elderly widower, who feels a lawyer isn't
doing the work for him that he should be, Weimer fires off
letters law society, governments and employers on
the Tel Tf Foundation stationery

She Started the foundation about three years ago and it
has run on an annual budget of $1,000 by lay volunteers, four
directors including Weimer

It is incorporated and has charitable status for income
tax purposes, but neither it nor the people it helps have
much money, Weimer said

Weimer said she is helping about four people at a given
time, putting them in touch with the right people and
starting the flow of official letters.

GETS ACTION

She said she's better at letter writing than talking and
finds it gets more action, although she concedes the founda
tion is still learning the ropes.

About 20 people, mostly elderly
hand from the organization.

“They're people who have met all these closed doors and
have no strings to pull,” Weimer said

One of her files of letters involves a dispute that Milton
Quin of Toronto is having with his lawyer over the work the
lawyer is supposed to do on a problem with the fence of
Quin's neighbor.

In the latest letter to the law society, the foundation
said,‘“It is now 30 weeks since we first wrote on Mr. Quin’s
belia I to (the lawyer) and it is 24 weeks since we described
(the lawyer's) bebavior to the Law Society of Upper Canada

have had a helping

ks for justice

To date you have accomplished nothing constructive
for this lawyer's victim. Why is the society showing such
benevolent leniency toward its member while the lawyer's
client suffers ?

Mr. Quin has demanded the return of the ($200)
retainer, but the money seemingly is still in (the lawyer's)
possession.”

Richard Tinsley, a law society official, said the society
knew nothing about the foundation

Quin is a retired printer who at 76 says he has enough
money to live on, although he's He said
he is grateful to the foundation

WORK IS FREE

He said if he's successful in his bid to get back his $200
from the lawyer, he would give it to the foundation as a
donation, although the work is free

not a millionaire.”
