Resolve Now
To Keep Family
Health Record

Now is the time to resolve
to begin keeping a Family
Health Record. suggests the Am
erican Medical Association.
How many times have you
needed basic health facts about
members of your family-for
school records, for insurance
forms, for a doctors medical
history?
A family health record is
your compilation of these facts.
Like vital statistics in the fam
lily Bible, notations on family
health-kept accurately and up
to date can be of permanent
value.
The record should contain
pertinent facts on immuniza-
tions, illnesses, injuries, and
physical examinations. The re-
cord will prove its worth only
if kept carefully. Start immedi-
ately to jot down basic informa-
tion you know already. Enter
accurately all injuries and ILL
nesses. When you next see your
physician, take the family
health record along so notations
can be made while they are
fresh in your mind.
A small schoolboy's notebook
will do for a record book. Or
you can obtain a small account
book or ledger from a station
cry shop.
Begin with a brief listing of
the family history. Date and
place of birth of each member.
If any are deceased, date and
cause of death. Pertinent medi-
cal facts about each family
member, such as chronic dis
eases or illnesses Cancer, dia-
betes, epilepsy.
Next should come a section
for dates of immunizations,
with spaces for each member
of the family. The columns
should allow room for listing
immunizations against whoop-
ing cough, diphtheria, tetanus,
typhoid, polio and smallpox.
There should be space for not
ing dates of booster shots.
A section on general informa-
ton should include such data as
the blood type of each family
member, whether the RH blood
| factor is known to be present
/ in any of the family and spec
ial allergies or drug sensitivity
of each.
| A check list of the more
common diseases-chicken pox,
measles, German measles, scar
let fever, mumps, whooping
cough, diptheria-should be in
cluded. Most of these are child
hood diseases, but sometimes
an adult is exposed. German
measles can be very serious in
an expectant mother. Mumps is
a serious disease in adults.
! Another section should pro-
vide place for noting dates OF
physical examinations, with q
line or two to make note oi
special advice or instructions
that followed the checkup. Ill.
nesses requiring disqualification
should be recorded, listing ma
ture of the illness or injury
name of physician, name OF hos
pital, dates of entry and dis
charge, length of illness, if sur
gerry was performed describe il
briefly. Illnesses at home should
be recorded also.
Finally, section listing the
family's health and accident in
surance information will be
helpful.
Relatively few families keep
health records, but everyone
sooner or later finds need for
Smyrna times., 1962-01-11

the information. Keep your
family health record up to date
at all times as an added safe
guard to your family's health.

BY the Associated Press

All three living former Presi-
dents of the United States will
serve as honorary co-chairmen
of the Sam Rayburn Founda-
tional Development Program,
Robert B. Anderson, head of
the drive, announced yester-
day.
President Kennedy already

manShip Of the drive to raise
$40 million for the program

tary of the Treasury in the

more than half century Of serv-
ice Mr.. Rayburn rendered in
Congress and the Texas State

Erroneous Image

The public image of alcoholics
concentrated on skid row is
erroneous. Actually. says the
council, only 8 per cent are
found there among the home
less and the chemically un-
employed.
Today's alcoholic may be a
businessman. lawyer, Govern
ment official, doctor, bus driver,
factory worker. baker, house
wife-anyone, including some
teen-agers.
Usually it takes years before
the drinking becomes uncon-
trolled. A small percentage of
persons leap into full-blown
alcoholism after the first few
drinks.
Experts say alcoholism has
complex psychological, physi-
Geological and social causes. The
alcoholic becomes dependent on
alcohol as a way of life, even
though he frequently succeeds
in going on the wagon for
periods of time.
Must Help Himself
Fundamentally, says Mrs.
Mann, only the alcoholic can
truly help himself. His first
step is to recognize he's Ill,
that drink is a severe problem.
Usually he won't do this until
the damage to health, home, or
job becomes obvious.
His enormously difficult de-
cision is that he must throw
away the crutch he is leaning
on, the crutch which Is Destroy
ing him. Life without q
bottle. :?
One helpful beginning, for
himself or family, lies in the
alcoholism information centers
operated by many Of the
councils rs local chapters, Mrs.
Mann adds.
He can walk in and find
neutral ground, knowing he'll
just find information, not
treatment. He can walk in
knowing that a trap door is
not about to be sprung, with a
moose around his neck"
This is one Of the means now
by which the alcoholic and dis
traught family members are
finding there are more and
more hands stretched out to
help combat the sickness.
Tomorrow: Picking up the
pieces.)
