The 23-year-old University of Toronto student has raised more than $130,000 over the past nine years at the annu- al Durham Region Walk for Muscular Dystrophy. Now he prepares to raise even more money for the disorder at this year’s walk on May 29. “I know we are making a difference,” says Mr. Harold. “Even if there is no cure yet.” At age four, he was diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, an inherited disorder that causes mus- cular weakness that progressively gets worse. “It has slowly taken away abilities. I used to be able to walk, but I can’t any- more,” he says. “Even something as simple as scratch- ing my head, I can’t do ... because of the muscle weakness.” Since his diagnosis, Mr. Harold, along with his mother, Janice Harold, have become spokesmen to raise awareness about the disorder. One of the yearly ways they contrib- ute is through the MD walk in Durham Region. The walk raises money for Muscu- lar Dystrophy Canada, which offers national support and resources to those with MD and their families. Ms. Harold says she and her son have received support and equipment they have needed, such as a wheelchair lift for their home. So far more than half of the $50,000 goal for the Durham Walk this year has been raised, with almost a third of it from Mr. Harold’s team alone. “It’s not just about the money, Its about the hope and the support,” says Ms. Harold. “It helps us get through the tough days, because I think about all the families that came out to support us.” Mr. Harold agrees. He says the sup- port at the walk helps him get through the rest of the year. “There are tough days when I real- ly hate this disability and sometimes I don’t want to fight, but I think of the people who raise money for me and I realize that I can get through this. “ The one-to-five kilometre walk, roll or run will take place this year at Hey- denshore Park, 589 Water St., in Whitby at 11 a.m. To register for the walk, visit https:// muscle.akaraisin.com/Pledge/Event/ GroupHome.aspx?seid=11308&mid=8 2&sgid=1059 or register on walk day at Heydenshore Park at 10 a.m. Alex Harold finds support in MD walk inside May 25, 2016 AP Pressrun 54,400 / 32 pages editorial Page / 6 Health and Wellness / 10 Wheels / insert Classified / 13 905-215 0442 durhamregion.com The latest news from across durham Region, Ontario, Canada and the world all day, every day. search ‘newsdurham’ on your favourite social media channel.

Pick-up or Delivery Now open 6 days a week Two locations to serve you better Serving Durham Region From page 1 It began when members of a Facebook group for mothers expecting a baby in September 2016, posted their 3D prena- tal images. Two mothers realized some- thing was amiss about their photos. “It was the exact same photo,” said Ms. Cusimano. They discovered they’re both from Oshawa and both got their 3D images from BabyView. “I can’t even explain,” she said of the discovery. “I was just shocked. I liter- ally stared at it every single day trying to notice features. I had so many emo- tions.” BabyView did not respond to News Advertiser phone calls, but is calling the matching images a “technical glitch” and apologized on its Facebook page, saying it has already put some new pro- tocols and procedures into place, and is offering a free re-scan or to fully refund those affected for the picture services. The Pickering facility offers a live “4D” recording of the ultrasound on DVD set to music, as well as a CD with 3D images, and will tell parents the gender of their baby if requested. Packages range from $65 to $269. Ms. Cusimano created a Facebook page called BabyView 3D Scam!. As of Tuesday at 2 p.m., it had 1,336 members. “We’re definitely going to pursue it (legally), so we want to make sure we go the best route,” Ms. Cusimano said of the affected parents. “We’ve already been scammed. We don’t want to sink much more money into it. Many of us can’t afford it.” The matter has been reported to Dur- ham police. The issue has also prompted the Min- istry of Health and Long-Term Care to look into the practice of so-called ‘enter- tainment ultrasounds,’ which are unreg- ulated in Ontario. They don’t fall under the umbrella of the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care because the service isn’t medical. Health Canada advises people not to get entertainment ultrasounds. There is no confirmed health risk for the moth- er or baby from any ultrasounds, but it does cause some heating to tissue. In response to phone calls and an e-mail from the Toronto Star, someone at BabyView identified only as Adeel wrote that all their sonographers are “Canadian certified,” in an email. But sonographers aren’t part of any regulatory body, as doctors, nurses or radiation technologists are. Johan Rudnick, the executive director of Sonography Canada, said the organi- zation that represents medical sonogra- phers is working with provincial govern- ments to bring forward regulations sur- rounding entertainment ultrasounds. “In an unregulated environment there is no requirement for an operation like BabyView to be licensed by Sonography Canada or anyone else,” said Mr. Rud- nick. “When anyone can simply order equipment on the Internet and set up shop, the real worry is that they may not have the proper education and training and could therefore be operating in a way that might cause some harm.“ He could not say whether the owner of BabyView is credentialed by Sonography Canada. He has been informed the owner is reg- istered with American Registry for Diag- nostic Medical Sonography (its coun- terpart in the U.S.). but said the big dif- ference between the U.S. and Canada’s credentialing is ARDMS demonstrates knowledge, but not clinical skills. -- With files from Toronto Star Expectant moms say they got identical 3D scans of babies Justin Greaves / Metroland OSHAWA -- Expecting mothers have banded together and feel they’ve been wronged by BabyView 3D Prenatal Imaging in Pickering. They believe the photos they received after a 3D ultrasound at the business are the same image. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 2 5 , 2 0 1 6 5 AP GervaisParty&TentRentalsprovides innovativesolutionsfor yourevent.

The moms, it turns out, are among a larger group who all say they received the same image from Bayview 3D Prenatal Imaging in Pickering. They began sharing their images on Facebook and sure enough, more and more moms started joining, posting the same photo. Their story hit the media last week and soon the company was blam- ing the distribution of the same image on a technical glitch. It has offered to redo the scans, an offer many of the moms are refusing, noting they have lost faith in the company. “It’s sickening,” said Ms. Bowden, who is 21 weeks pregnant. “This is so stressful and I’m so sad that this is happening.” Without Facebook, it’s likely these woman would never have discovered all their images were identical. Unless they all met in a room and brought hard copies of the images, the ‘technical glitch’ may have gone unnoticed. But what has also resulted from the dis- covery is the realization that businesses such as this are not regulated. 3D ultrasounds, which have no medi- cal purpose, do not fall under the purview of the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care. After the moms came forward last week, the ministry said it will now look at regulat- ing the industry. “I think it would be appropriate that we also take a look at some of the entertain- ment, less medically focused places,” said Joshua McLarnon, a spokesman for Health Minister Eric Hoskins. Greg Toffner, president of the Ontario Association of Medical Radiation Scienc- es, noted there is nothing stopping any- one from buying a scanner and setting up a business for themselves. Speaking to Toronto media, he noted families seeking out a 3D scan could be getting scanned by someone who has had as much training as a secretary or an administrator. And what would happen if the scan showed something wrong with the fetus? The untrained person doing the scan would have no inclination about what to do or even to report the concern. In fact, Health Canada advises against the 3D scans, noting that while there is no real health concerns, the process can cause heating to tissue around the fetus. So if expecting parents do want a 3D scan, the Liberal government must ensure the business conducting the scan is prop- erly licensed and has trained personnel doing the work. Government regulation is not always good for business to thrive but in this case, a regulated industry would ensure prop- er procedures are in place to make sure expectant moms can have faith in the company doing the scan. -- Metroland Media Group Ltd., Durham Region Division Lots of resources are available to help with student post-secondary financial aidOP I N I O N column meri Kim oliver Spring is finally upon us and while many people are thinking of lazy summer days, on college campuses everywhere it is the start of a particularly hectic season. Student grades are being processed, graduating students are eagerly await- ing convocation, new students have started May classes, and thousands of applications are being processed for fall admission. If you are one of the many people applying to continue your post-second- ary education this year, you are likely exploring more choices than have ever been available to students -- choices about when to start a program, what to study, where to attend, on-line or in person, college or university, when to start and how to juggle your education with all of the other responsibilities in your life. The one question that every student considers is how to pay for their educa- tion? In February 2016, the provincial government released its budget includ- ing an announcement that in 2017, stu- dents with a family income lower than $50,000 will receive ’free tuition‘ in the form of ’up-front‘ grants to cover the cost of tuition. Students from families with higher incomes may also receive grants, but in graduated amounts that are reduced based on income (find information at: www.tcu.gov.on.ca). If you are eligible for the free tuition option, you may be thinking that it would be financially helpful to delay the start of your program to take advantage of the free tuition program but you may want to look a little deeper. In 2016, stu- dents eligible for the Ontario Student Assistance Program from a typical fam- ily of four with an income of less than $50,000 could receive a combination of grants and loans to pay for their educa- tion. Then, when they graduate, they may be eligible for a provincial loan forgiveness program. In other words, tuition is ’free’ to the same group of stu- dents in 2016; only the process is differ- ent. Information about OSAP is available at www.ontario.ca/OSAP . Applicants can complete an online assessment that will indicate what you can expect to receive in student grants and loans to start a program in 2016. The loans are interest free until six months after you graduate from college and, if eligible, you could have a portion of your loan forgiven upon completion of your stud- ies. So if you are one of the thousands of applicants busy planning for college in fall 2016 and are still asking yourself how to pay for your education, there are good resources available. Every college has a financial aid office that can assist you in understanding this process so be sure to contact them for more informa- tion. Explore your financial aid options and get started on your future this fall. -- Meri Kim Oliver is vice-president, student affairs, Durham College our opinion Government must make sure 3D scanning businesses have properly trained personnel Tim Whittaker - Publisher twhittaker@durhamregion.com Fred Eismont - Director of Advertising feismont@durhamregion.com Mike Johnston - Regional Managing Editor mjohnston@durhamregion.com Deb Macdonald - Sales Manager dmacdonald@durhamregion.com Abe Fakhourie - Director of Distribution afakhourie@durhamregion.com Cheryl Haines - Composing Manager chaines@durhamregion.com News Advertiser 865 Farewell St., Oshawa ON L1H 6N8 www.durhamregion.com ADVERTISING 905-215-0472 CLASSIFIEDS 905-576-9335 DISTRIBUTION 905-579-4407 GENERAL FAX 905-579-2238 NEWSROOM 905-215-0481 LETTERS: We welcome letters.

AJAX NISSAN 500 BAYLY STREET WEST,AJAX TEL: (905) 686-0555 Canine unit apprehends one suspect fleeing on foot early Monday in Whitby DURHAM -- Two Oshawa men were arrested early Monday morning after leading police on a chase through Whitby and then fleeing on foot from cops. Officers were called to an automotive business on Hopkins Street in Whitby around 12:20 a.m. on May 23 regard- ing a break-in in progress and observed suspects inside the building using blow- torches. Once they noticed the cops, the two suspects fled the business in a car and did not stop for officers, say Durham police. The car narrowly missed colliding head-on with a police cruiser before coming to a stop on Dundas Street East after a front tire pulled off the rim during an attempted U-turn, police say. The vehicle was then pinned by a police cruiser, but the suspects ran off. O n e man was arrested after a short foot pursuit while a sec- ond suspect was appre- hended by the canine unit. Police later determined the suspect vehicle was stolen from Brampton. Darnel McFar- lane, 29, of Trow- bridge Court in Oshawa and Kyle Chapman, 23, of Pad- dington Crescent in Oshawa, have both been charged with break and enter, pos- session of stolen property over $5,000, possession of stolen property under $5,000, disguise with intent and posses- sion of break-in instruments. Mr. McFarlane has also been charged with dangerous driving and fail to stop for police. Both men were held for a bail hearing.

Blaze on Kingston Road deemed suspicious Abandoned building destroyed in fire Tuesday morning PICKERING -- The Pickering fire depart- ment is investigating a suspicious over- night fire on Kingston Road. Pickering Fire Chief John Hagg said a 911 call came in at around 2 a.m. on May 24 about a fire at an abandoned building on the northwest corner of Rougemount Drive and Kingston Road. “The place is gone,” Chief Hagg said of the now gutted building located at 364 Kingston Rd. There were no injuries. Since there was no electricity in the abandoned building, the fire is being deemed suspicious. “The fire is under investigation,” said Chief Hagg. Five Pickering trucks were on the scene overnight, and the Toronto fire depart- ment helped put out the blaze in the early hours. Kingston Road was closed over- night but is now re-opened to traffic. Pickering fire crews cleared the scene at around 8:30 a.m. but were expected to return throughout the day to put out hot spots. Petapalooza features pet vendors, amateur dog show in Pickering PICKERING -- Dogs can have some fun at this year’s pet tradeshow in Pickering, while their owners discover pet business- es and services available in the area. Petapolooza will take place on Saturday, May 28 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the upper level of the leash-free area at Grand Val- ley Park, located on the Third Concession, west of Valley Farm Road in Pickering. As part of Responsible Pet Ownership Month, the tradeshow will feature more than 20 exhibitors and industry profes- sionals offering an array of activities, pro- grams, and information for all animal lov- ers. In addition, microchipping of dogs and cats will be offered by Forestbrook Pet Hospital, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. for $25 cash on a first-come, first-served basis. “This year’s Petapolooza is bigger and better than ever. There will be animals, pet stenciling, nail trims, and even an amateur dog show hosted by Bark and Fitz,” said Lindsey Narraway, supervisor of Pickering Animal Services. “It will be a great oppor- tunity for pets to get some exercise, have fun, and show off their skills.” Those interested in participating in this year’s dog show can register for free at www.pickering.ca/petapolooza . Prizes will be awarded to the top three winners in each category. More information on the dog show and Petapalooza is also avail- able on the website. Although the tradeshow is free, attend- ees are welcome to make a $2 donation to help raise funds for a permanent animal shelter in Pickering. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 2 5 , 2 0 1 6 9 P Direct Access 905.420.4660 General Enquiries 905.683.2760 Service Disruption 1.877.420.4666 Customer Care Centre 905.683.7575 (24 hour line) customercare@pickering.ca pickering.ca @cityofpickering@cityofpickering Date Meeting/Location Time May25 HeritagePickeringAdvisoryCommittee CityHall–MainCommitteeRoom 7:00pm May26 PickeringLibraryBoard Claremont 7:00pm May30 CivicAwards CityHall–CouncilChambers 7:00pm June1 CommitteeofAdjustment CityHall–MainCommitteeRoom 7:00pm June8 AccessibilityAdvisoryCommittee CityHall–MainCommitteeRoom 7:00pm Allmeetingsareopentothepublic.

The local group joined a province-wide referendum started by the Ontario Health Coalition on April 25, along with 19 other communities, to protest cuts through bal- lots. “We are trying to protect the services we deliver to our community that are there for those who need it,” says Sara Labelle, a board member of the Ontario Health Coalition, a provincial volunteer organiza- tion that advocates for public health-care. The DHC, the local chapter, will set up ballot stations during the month of May to allow Durham Region residents 16 years old and up to vote on hospital funding cuts. The OHC says consistent cuts to health care have led to patients having to travel longer distances for care, along with hospi- tals being understaffed and overcrowded. “Patients are lying in stretchers in the hallways of our hospitals because they are too full,” says Natalie Mehra, the executive director for the OHC. “By every reasonable measure our hospitals have been cut too far.” Granville Anderson, a Durham MPP, says that the Ontario government has increased hospital funding regularly since 2004, with more increases prepared for 2016. “Our government continues to invest in community hospitals, including those in Durham,” he says. “Far from making cuts, our government has increased funding for hospitals in Ontario from $11.35 billion to $17.3 billion, an increase of 53 per cent.” Ms. Mehra calls those statistics “manipu- lative” and “disingenuous.” “The truth is, according to the govern- ment’s own data from the Ministry of Finance, Ontario’s government has given hospitals zero per cent increases for the past four years,” she says. “In the 2016 budget, hospitals operational budgets are receiving a one per cent increase. Inflation is projected to be 1.8 per cent. That means real dollar cuts to hospitals.” According to statistics from the Nation- al Health Expenditures Database in 2015, Ontario hospitals receive on average more than $500 less per person compared to other provinces. “We are asking the Ontario government to improve our hospitals’ funding just to meet the average of the rest of the provinc- es,” she says. “It’s not unreasonable.” The coalition hopes to gather 200,000 votes to persuade the government to increase funding. “(The ballots) will give us the leverage we need to secure that conversation with the health minister,” says Ms. Labelle, who is also a laboratory technician at Lakeridge Health in Oshawa. She also notes that the Oshawa hospital has not received significant cuts compared to other Ontario hospitals, but the Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Sciences has lost more than 20 beds and almost 50 jobs since 2013. For the referendum, 50 to 100 ballot boxes will be distributed throughout the Durham Region during the month of May.

Patients are lying in stretchers in the hallways of our hospitals because they are too full. By every reasonable measure our hospitals have been cut too far. -- Natalie Mehra “ At some point, we all misplace our keys – but when it happens to our elderly friend or relative, we wonder if it’s normal for- getfulness or something more serious, like dementia. Dementia is when memory and other thinking skills decline, making it hard to do everyday activities. As a geriatric nurse at Lakeridge Health, I specialize in caring for seniors. Helping people with dementia and other health concerns is part of my daily work – and it’s also my passion. Let’s say your mother is showing some confusion and you want to know if it could be dementia. It takes a doctor’s diagnosis to know for sure, but there are some things you can look for. A big indicator is if mom forgets how to do something she does all the time. Maybe she’s played bridge for 20 years but suddenly can’t remember a basic rule of the game. Another sign is trouble with depth perception. If mom tries to sit on a chair and falls, it might not be her balance. People with dementia can have trouble identifying where objects are in space. Watch for difficulty with familiar tasks or working with numbers. Mom may seem to have her banking in order, but take a closer look. Does she have everything set up as direct withdrawal? This can mask dementia by making it seem like mom is keeping track of her monthly bills when she’s not. Other signs of dementia are losing track of dates, withdrawing from hob- bies and activities, and having trouble following a conversation or remem- bering words. If you’re worried, you should encour- age mom to make an appointment with her family doctor. Dementia is a progres- sive disease but lots of people live active, involved lives filled with purpose for many years. A doctor’s diagnosis is key to getting the right treatment and sup- ports to make this possible. It’s also important to see a doctor to rule out other reasons for mom’s symptoms. Maybe a medication change like mom’s new sleeping pill is behind her confu- sion. I’ve also seen dementia-like symptoms caused by dehydration, an infection or because a person is dealing with the death of someone close to them. What if you see a sudden, severe change in mom’s behaviour and ability to function? She could be experiencing delirium, a medical emergency, and should go to the nearest ER for care. People with delirium may see things that aren’t there or call people by the wrong names. Every day I spend at work, I think of how our seniors built the life we know and institutions we rely on today. It’s an honour to help our seniors grow older with dignity and with the best pos- sible quality of life.   -- Merissa Laht is a Geriatric Emergency Management Nurse in Lakeridge Health’s Oshawa ER and one of Hospital News Mag- azine’s 2016 nursing heroes. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 2 5 , 2 0 1 6 11 AP 75 BAYLY STWEST AJAX L1S 7K7 NO FRILLS PLAZA We WantTo BeYOUR Drug Store!

Pickering TownCentre www.kleinfootcare.ca Cool Foot Tips During The Hot Summer… We all tend to make New Year’s resolutions to exercise, lose weight and watch what we eat. But our motivation only seems to kick in with the start of summer. There’s nothing like warm weather to encourage us to get outdoors, even if it’s only to begin a walking program. As with any new exercise, if you are over the age of 35, you should get a medical evaluation before beginning. A great way to ease into an exercise routine is to start walking. Walking not only burns fat, it tightens muscles and lowers lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Our walking rate as we go about out daily activities is approximately three miles per hour. The average person should walk at a pace of about one third faster (four miles per hour) to reach a desired exercise hart rate. We need to protect our feet, therefore a good walking shoe is very important. It should provide the most flexibility at the middle of the sole. While walking, your feet do not require the same impact protection as when you are running, so your soles do not have to be thick. Before you begin walking, it is always a good idea to start with at least five minutes of stretching exercises. After you stretch, begin walking slowly. Do so for about five minutes to increase your heart rate. Then walk briskly for about 25-30 minutes. Your walk should end with a five minute decrease in speed to cool down and than five minutes of stretching to prevent stiffness and increase flexibility. Never wear ankle weights. They will put pressure on your joints that evolution never anticipated and are sure to cause future problems. Safe walking is great for all ages. Here are some summer exercise tips to get you ready for your warm weather wardrobe: 1. Dress appropriately for the temperature. Wear light coloured, loose fitting clothing. Always wear a hat with a visor and use sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15. 2. Drink a lot of water before, during and after the walk. Don’t wait until you are thirsty, by then it’s too late and you may already be dehydrated. 3. Give yourself time to adapt to warmer weather. Exercising in the summer heat puts more strain on the body than in cooler temperatures. 4. Walk in the morning or early evening when it’s cooler and traffic is lighter. 5. Make sure you are visible when walking at night. The greatest threat to the health of a walker is an inattentive driver. Wear bright clothing with reflective tape on your arms, front and back. Also carry a flashlight. 6. Avoid busy streets. Carry only enough money for a phone call or emergencies. 7. Obey the rules of the road. Walk facing traffic where there are no sidewalks. Like any form of exercise, walking should be done in moderation, every other day. IF you are concerned about the weather outside, you can always mall walk. Most malls are open early in the morning, and are a perfect temperature. Just think; you won’t have to worry about a pet owner who neglected to scoop their poop.
