During the attack, Bradem went to the CI, but was unable to communicate his need for sugared water, which stops a diabetic attack, to the woman at the check-in counter due to a symptomatic loss of common sense brought on by the attack: "It was embarrassing," said ttraaem. "It feels like a strobe light isa going on and off. I've heard some people say just take some sugar, but you lose common sense. I started saying, T gotta eat. I gotta eat.' It wasn't her (unidentified Rulh Fogelberg/QC Photo Edilor Phil Bradem worker in the C.I.) fault. She didn't understand. I didn't mean to be belligerent," said Bradem. Campus Safety was called on the scene by Rick Cordell, Media Center Coordinator, when he noticed Bradem's uncharacteristic behavior. Corporal Ed Zeronis and Officer Yvette Zendejas responded to the call. "When we got there he was slouched over on the steps. We didn'tknow what was wrong. We Ruth Fogelberg/QC Photo Ed Editor Officer Ed Zeronis tried to get him some sugared water. It was lemonade. Rick Cordell went in to get the lemonade. He (Bradem) was in and out of consciousness- incoherent. I've been around diebetics before. I know they need sugar to get their system going. Rick brought back what he thought was the best thing. They didn't have sugared water," stated Zeronis. Bradem was transported to the hospital by the ambulance that arrived on the scene. He was recovering at home by that same night with his two daughters, Bianca, 10, and Ruby, 9. "I feel like I don't want to go to the hospital. I know they don't want to deal with a cry baby," said Bradem. "Doctors have to understand we don't want to wake up in the hospital." "If anybody ever sees me, and they start talking to me, and I'm all doped out, give me some sugar, half sugar and half water," Bradem requested. "The body doesn't know the difference between sugars, brown or white. Sugar will calm anybody down. I carry a glucose solution in my pocket, but when I lose common sense during the attack, I can't get to it," explained Bradem. Bradem is at Whittier College as a first year student and is a Child Development major. Med- iCal assists him in making a $50,000 payment on kidney dialysis. "One out of 3.68 Hispanics will get diabetes. Women and the overweight are also especially prone," stated Bradem. Bradem is on the waiting list for a kidney transplant. CAMPUS INN Committee Discusses Possible Changes, Improvements to CI Sachsens Send a Message by .FED GILCHRIST QC Staff Writer A Food Service Committee, formed late last year, is working toward a Nov. 1 deadline for proposed suggestions for improvements to the College's current food service. Formed initially as a temporary entity to find a replacement for retiring C.I. director Bud Tho- rup, the Committee, which consists of select faculty, students and administrators, met thrice this summer and has convened twice during this academic year. Topics discussed so far include the following: a job description for future bids on the position of CI. director, a process by which the Committee can effectively gather student input and inform the community of any planned changes, and a change in food ser vice philosophy so as to promote a friendly, helpful, healthful atmosphere. Dean of Students Susan Allen, a member ofthe Committee, mentioned that the student portion of the Committee was composed of students of both genders at varying class levels and in different residential situations so as to represent a broad spectrum of the Whittier College student community. Annalee Paulo, senior, and a student member of the Food Service Committee, noted that student concerns were given significant emphasis by the committee.
