February brings us many things; ice, snow and the sugar-coated hearts of Valentine’s Day. More importantly however is recognizing that Febru-ary is Heart and Stroke month, where hundreds of dedicated volunteers take to the slushy streets to fundraise for this worthy cause.

Meet Bev Whale, eighty years young and brimming with a vigor people half his age would be envious of. A Scugog resident since 1993, he has been an as-sertive volunteer with the Heart and Stroke Foundation for fifteen years, rais-

ing amazing amounts of money through door to door canvassing.

“I’m vicious, and I don’t give up. I go to every door. If you say no to me this year, I’ll be back next year. I’m well known in my community. Now the neighbours come to my door with a cheque around this time every year because

they know I’m coming... guess I’m a little pushy!” he ex-claimed with a youthful chuckle.

Bev has dedicated much of his life to serving others through volunteerism, and has raised his four children to do the same. He shared with me a prophetic quote from Mu-hammad Ali “Service to others is the rent you pay for your space here on earth”.

Bev wants to ensure the community recognizes one thing. “Be kind to volunteers; they’re not getting paid for the hours they give. Please give from the heart, and you never know, tomorrow it might be you that benefits from the money we raise”.

26 FOCUS - FEBRUARY 2010

Having always been healthy and active, it came as a surprise to Bev and his family when, in November 2008 he began experiencing some unexplained shortness of breath. Always mindful of his health, he saw his doctor and did what he was told. As his symptoms progressed, it became obvious something more serious was occurring. “The doc-tors did some tests, an angiogram and found that I had aortic stenosis and needed a triple by-pass” Bev stated in a matter of fact tone.

Symptoms of aortic stenosis can include shortness of breath, chest pain and decreased energy. “So, that’s just what we did. I was told I had a ten percent chance of dying during the surgery, but I just focused on the ninety percent chance I was going to make it!”

When patients are diagnosed with a cardiovascular disease or experience a cardiac event, it can be quite a shock. The necessary lifestyle changes one must undertake to get healthy are challenging and can sometimes lead to depres-sion.

He never asked “why me” and his mood always re-mained upbeat and positive. “Why not me?” was his belief and he remained strong and focussed throughout his ordeal.

His bypass took place in June 2009 and during surgery, Bev received a new aortic valve. “I got a bovine valve, so I don’t need daily medication and I feel just terrific!” states Bev emphatically.

Bev can’t say enough about the exemplary care he received from local doctors and our hospital. “Absolutely everyone was wonderful; kind, dedicated and selfless. Ev-erything was always explained to me; the staff was patient and I felt confident in the care I received.”

He was discharged from hospital within five days and continued to convalesce at home, with support from his children and home care. Bev enjoys golfing and curling and currently walks one and a half miles per day, five days a week through his cardiac rehabilitation program.

If you require a valve replacement, you have two op-tions. Going with a mechanical valve might be considered a more long-term solution but they come with a loud ‘click-ing’ noise and the increased risk of forming blood clots and thus require daily doses of blood thinning medication. If you choose to go with an animal valve (from a cow or pig) the blood thinners are not required but it is expected that further surgery will be required within fifteen years as valve problems develop.

“The lucky ones get the warning and I listened” says Bev. It is critical that even the most benign symptoms be paid attention to; they could be your warning. Every seven minutes, someone in Canada dies from a heart attack or stroke. Approximately thirty percent of all deaths are due to a cardiovascular event; killing more Canadians than any other disease.

Don’t take your health for granted, pay attention to what your body is saying to you. Get active, eat well and maintain a healthy body weight. Don’t smoke and limit al-cohol consumption. All this goes a long way to ensure your heart stays healthy.

Every day is a gift...Happy Heart Month and Happy Valentine’s Day!

Even the bright January sun couldn’t disguise how cold it was on January 9 when more than 30 brave souls took the plunge for charity at the lakefront in Port Perry. Participants were greeted with an air temperature hovering around -15C as they made their frantic dash to the pool of cold water, which had been carved out of the frozen lake. Despite the cold, a large crowd gathered along the lakeshore to watch and cheer on each of the contestants run, clad in bathing suits and an assortment of costumes, to

the water’s edge. Some carefully climbed off the ice into the water while others took a flying leap, but each dis-played their shock when their warm bodies hit the frigid water. This is the third year the local hospital auxiliary has organized this popular fundraising event and once again it was an overwhelming success. When all was done, $13,500 had been raised for the Auxiliary by 34 plungers. The money will be used to purchase medical equipment for the local hospital. This brings the total money raised from the event to more than $38,000 since it was started three winters ago.

Am I Covered?

Preventing WaterDamage

Water damage claims are now the number one cause of reported claims in Canada. In the oncoming year look forward to insurance com-panies putting more and more restric-tions and conditions on providing coverage for sewer back up and other water related claims.

The aging infrastructure of towns and the increase in unpredictable weather and lifestyle changes are adding more and more to the cost of water related claims.

Most basements are now fi nished as both recreation rooms and living space. This is considerably different than a few years ago.

Insurance companies will be in-creasing deductibles for water related claims and/or limiting coverage.

Here are some tips to consider for your fi nished basement.

- Do not cover fl oor drains.- Store items in plastic storage con-

tainers on raised shelving.- Check your basement for leaks after

a heavy rainfall.- Install a sewer back up prevention

valve on your home’s main line.- Disconnect downspouts draining

directly into the sewer system and redirect them at least 6’ away from your home’s foundation.

- Make sure your lot is graded to aid drainage away from your home.

Talk to your insurance broker about the changes that are coming in respect to water damage related claims.

Brokers represent several insur-ance companies and can offer you the best coverage and advice to suit your needs.

YOUR PROTECTION IS OUR POLICY!!


“Ready, set, go!” is a cry which will bellow across Lake Scugog on Sunday, February 21 as hundreds of snowmobilers take to the ice to set a new world record. The occasion is part of the Port Perry Snowmobile Club’s charitable events, and is co-sponsored by six neighbouring clubs, including the Cartwright Dynos. “We decided to do it (the run) as part of our 40th an-niversary,” explained Rick Sauer, Executive of Events and Promotions for the Port Perry club. “Every penny of the registration fee will be donated to the Easter Seals Camp for Kids,” he added, proudly. The current Guinness World record is held by a club in Minnesota, which in 2002 had a tour of 820 sleds all in a row. Port Perry hopes to surpass the 1,000 mark, mainly because of the local enthusiasm for the sport. Nearly 6,000 permits are issued annually from the local club alone and the entire province hands out just under 100,000 permits every year. Ontario has 41,000 km of snowmobile trails, all developed in the past 40 years. This is far greater than the number of highways. Scugog now has 150 km of groomed trails. All of these routes are built and main-tained by volunteers such as Rick Sauer. Rick has been on the executive of the PPSC for seven years and faithfully grooms the trails four times a week. This in itself is not an easy task. Driving a Bombardier groomer, a device the size of a truck, through snow trails is tricky, especially pulling a

10 metre grading device. Rick handles it as if he was born in the seat, constantly making sure not to interfere with neighbouring land owners and their property. “I do it because I love the sport,” said Rick as he returned from a three hour grooming run. “It also helps me keep a lookout for people who drift from the trails or don’t have permits, as well as ATV’s who are not allowed to travel on the trails.” The parade on February 21 will start at the south end of Lake Scugog, in the Palmer Park area. Entrants are asked to be there by 10 a.m. to take part. A pancake breakfast will be served and stories will be shared. The organizers will send the snowmobilers out in groups of 100 to avoid congestion. The 25 - 30 km excursion will head north on the lake to the mouth of the Nonquon River and back along the “Island” shoreline. There is no pre-registration. Simply show up, pay the $20 entry fee and enjoy the fun and camaraderie. Snowmobiling is a great sport and in recent years laws have made it safe for everyone to enjoy. Even if you do not drive a ‘sled’, club officials welcome the public to come on out and see how much fun the event will be. Who knows, you could probably read about this record breaking ride in the next edition of the Guinness World Records.

Climb every mountain.... There are many places on earth worth travelling to, even if there are drawbacks in getting there. Australia is one of those places and if you can live with the 25 or so hours of travelling, the adventure is amazing. Having talked to many tourists who visit the ‘Land Down Under’ I am surprised how few have ever gone into the outback and even fewer have climbed one of the world’s most famous outcroppings... Australia’s well known Ayers Rock. The giant, red monolith is certainly one of Australia’s most recognizable landmarks. It rises 350 metres with two thirds of its bulk still buried beneath the ground. The rock is located in the centre of the country and is sur-rounded by desert, a rugged part of the country intro-duced to us by Crocodile Dundee. In 1985 Ayers Rock was renamed Uluru, its original aboriginal name. It is considered to be a sacred place and climbing it became forbidden. In recent years the natives have changed their mind and are once again allowing adventurers to seek the thrill of ascending the giant stone. Uluru is a six hour drive from Alice Springs, but fly-ing is recommended. I covered the 450 km. trek in a bus and cannot recall the last time I was so bored. If you wish to travel from Sydney I would recommend a layover in Cairns, as flying time from Sydney is about 14 hours (its nearly 3,000 km.). There is no direct flight, or at least none that I was aware of. I did a little investigation into climbing ‘The Rock’ and learned that there appeared to be more to it than I first suspected. From photographs which I had seen, it

looked as if a quick jaunt up the side and a fast march across the top was all that was needed. I was surprised to learn that one had to start at five o’clock in the morning for the climb. Fortunately I had no plans the night before so an early start would not be an issue. I set my alarm and took the shuttle out to the base of the rock, early the following day. I expected to see a populated tourist trap and was pleasantly surprised when the bus arrived and all I saw were hikers ready to battle the challenge. I checked my shoes, made sure I had water and started for the base. A small chain, about half a metre from the ground had been fastened up the rock for people to hold on to, making the climb relatively easy. The ascend was steeper than I had expected and after about 20 metres the chain stopped. There were three or four people sitting on the reddish stone looking unde-cided. I stopped and they explained that this area was known as ‘Chicken Hill’. This was as far as the chain went and where most people turn around. I looked ahead at the overwhelming challenge and glanced back at the tops of the vehicles below. I was not about to be intimidated by a few frightened tourists (they weren’t even from Canada). I continued on and began to struggle, as the wind increased in speed, blowing strong in the face of the climbers. The climb was long and when I was about half way up I stopped to rest. It also occurred to me that getting down would be a battle. The slope was about a 30-40 degree angle and the stone was slippery. I had to use my

Uluru,betterknownforyearsas“AyersRock”asitlooksfromadistance.


hands to make sure I did not slide backward. Finally, after what seemed an eternity, I made it to the top. Letting my tired body fall to the ground I rested, never letting go of my grip, as the wind was extremely fierce now. The sun had been up about an hour and I had been climbing for nearly two. Some hikers, on the return trip stopped to chat and explained that the plaque, which has to be signed by everyone, was two thirds of the way along the top. I asked how long it took them and they said about ninety minutes. I sighed but continued on. When one stares at Ayers Rock from a distance it looks perfectly flat along the top. This is not the case as it is all hills and valleys, some as deep as three metres. The only way to get up the hills is by running down the previ-ous slope. The authorities have painted a white dashed line on the best path to follow. This was done as a result of more than 20 casualties annually by climbers being blown off or slipping. I heard this after the climb; otherwise I would never have ventured up. After what seemed an eternity, the centre (actually two thirds of the way across) became visible. With new

motivation I ran the distance and signed the book. The view from the top was spectacular. In the dis-tance stood the Olgas, another outcropping of rock on the Australian Outback. The wind made me feel as if I could fly and standing on top of the world was an unparal-leled experience. It was now about three hours after I had started and I remembered other commitments that day, so I did not wait long before retracing my steps. The return run across the top was tiring but there was no alternative. I finally approached the end and had not realized how steep the downward slope actually was. I chuckled when two elderly German tourists approached, marching with walking sticks as if they were striding through a meadow. I spent the next 90 minutes with my arms out-stretched behind me supporting my weight as I slithered down the rock. At long last I touched terra firma and kissed the ground, able to boast about my accomplish-ment. Every evening at sunset, there is a ceremony, which includes champagne. Apparently the rock turns a beautiful purple as the sun shines its setting rays on it. I returned that evening and sipped the bubbly waiting for the dramatic event, only to find out that the ‘purple’ haze happens once or twice a year… and that night was not it. I stared at Uluru knowing I had conquered it and smiled to myself. It was an experience I would recom-mend to anyone with a little sense for adventure. It is not the easiest trek I have done but certainly one of the more rewarding ones.
