surgical lifesaving procedure known as colostomy or ileostomy The operation involves the creation of an artificial opening about the size of silver dollar just below and at the side of the navel through which waste materials can pass Colostomy and ileostomy patients are finally coming out he closet and realizing their perations are nothing to be ashamed of says Brian Me loche president of the Ottawa Ostomy Centre Meloche says that for years people were either afraid or ashamed to talk about their op 3rations just as breast can cer victims were decade ago Psychologically it is more difficult for woman or teen ager to cope with the mental trauma associated with such operation than it is for man says Meloche He is quick to stress that life styles need not change drasti cally for such patients and that many teenagers date and go on to get married and have chil dren WHAT IS IT Just what is ostomy surgery and what sort of circumstances precipitate the need for such procedure

ileum is portion of the small intestine the colon part of the large intestine Cancer of the rectum the fi nal section of the large intestine through which bowel matter must pass before it is evac

gastrointestinal tract Both conditions can cause se vere cramping diarrhea and in the case of ulcerative colitis the passing of great quantities of blood AN BE FATAL Left untreated the patient suffers tremendous weight loss weakness dehydration and eventually death In severe cases says Me loche it is often necessary to remove the rectum and sec tion of large intestine as well He says that because the patient can no longer have bowel movement in the usual manner an artificial opening must be created over which plastic pouch is placed to col lect waste products good surgeon will create nice clean stoma opening over which pouch fitted with seal that slips over the opening snugly can be placed The patient then empties the odorproof pouch several times day just as he might if he were going to have normal bowel movement Some patients who have had colostomy prefer to irrigate every 24 or 48 hours removing entirely the need for pouch Others take an oral tablet called Devrom which eliminates all body odors in cluding those normally associated with flatulence Basically irrigation involves inserting catheter tube into the opening connecting it to shoulderhigh container of luke

people work in the plant and its output is sent to 62 depots in most parts of Canada It is great Quebec success story and bigger one for an area of the province where small businesses abound Paul Lamontagne the com panys vicepresident and gen eral manager says the Vachon family had pioneering vision They started with bread and cakes Then they saw the mar hot for snack cakes and got there first By the time anyone else saw the same market in Quebec Vachon had locked it up Today Lamontagne and the management at Vachon and Culinars corporate head office in Montreal think they can cap ture the

areas occupied since 1967 196 While opinion polls show most Israelis alree with Begin that the ideal solution to ensure the safety of the Jewish state would be to continue stationing Israeli troops on the West Bank and Gaza Strip indefinitely many of the same people believe such solution is no longer realistic And there has been very little public response to Begins calls for Jewish civilian settlements in those areas recent opinion poll pub lished here showed that 286 per cent of Israelis would favor opening negotiations with the Palestine Liberation Organ ization if it were to recognize Israel and openly proclaim that it accepts Israels existence INDICATES CHANGE This is far cry from only two years ago when both Begin and the Labor government he was replacing after general elections
