For some
children, visions
of growing up
may be simply
that. Visions.

Children with cystic fibrosis
want to grow up. They have
dreams of the future just like
every other child.
More than half of them will
live into their twenties, but that's
when life should be beginning
not ending.
You see, cystic fibrosis is an
hereditary disease that attacks a
child's lungs and makes it very
hard to breathe. Eventually, it's
fatal. And there is no cure. Sofa,:
But there is hope. Recent
discoveries in genetic research
can lead to stopping cystic
fibrosis once and forever.
The Cystic Fibrosis Founda-
tion supports this research. But
we need your help. The money
you give today will be used
immediately to continue the
research. And it will go a long
way in helping find the cure.
Your gift of S15, S25, or even
more will give a child more than
just a vision of hope. Give the
future.. call 1-800-343-4300,

purpura — an inflammation in-
volving the small vessels and af-
fecting tissue throughout the
body. His prognosis echoes
Yaakov's belief: the condition
usually clears up spontaneous-
ly. But the symptoms are treat-
ed, and Yaakov hopes there
won't be an upset during his
home visit. Last time, when his
blood pressure fell to normal, his
parents stopped his medication,
and the doctors were displeased.
"I was caught in the middle,"
he says. "It's a rough situation.
It's also rough being in the hos-
pital for so long, because I love
my home, my family and my life.
But if it has to be, then I have few
complaints about Hadassah. I'm
comfortable, well looked after,
and most of the doctors and nurs-
es are really wonderful."
Because he's in a pediatric
ward, visiting hours are very re-
laxed, which is something
Yaakov deeply appreciates.
"There's always someone from
home sitting with me," he says.
"They and I hold to a beautiful
Jewish tradition: That every vis-
itor to the sick takes away with
him a sixtieth of that sick per-
son's suffering." ❑

Researchers Tame
Herpes Virus

Hebrew University of Jerusalem
researchers have succeeded in
isolating and eliminating two
genes responsible for the viru-
lence of the herpes virus by us-
ing genetic engineering
techniques.
The herpes virus is recognized
by the public as the cause of var-
ious illnesses and can even re-
sult in blindness, brain damage
and death.
The Hebrew University re-
search project, among the few in
the world dealing with the vir-
ulence of herpes virus, has so far
involved experimentation with
mice; further investigation will
be required before there can be
application regarding humans.
The research, involving the
herpes simplex virus type I
(HSV-I), was undertaken earli-
er this year by Dr. Michal Moy-
al as her Ph.D. research
assignment in the Department
of Molecular Virology in the In-
stitute of Microbiology at The He-
brew University-Hadassah
Medical School.
The herpes simplex virus type
I is one of a family of herpes
viruses affecting humans and an-
imals. In general, infections due
to the virus occur in mucus mem-
branes or in cuts or scratches of
the skin, where the virus multi-
plies, causing sores. The most
widespread manifestation occurs
on the lips, but it can also occur
in the eyes or sex organs.
After the initial infection, the
