When he got there, it was like, where is he going to stay? — Rozlynn Buzzeo

RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE

A second home for families

By HenryTye Glazebrook When Hudson and Owen Buzzeo were born, their mother Rozlynn knew something was wrong when the latter twin came into the world struggling to breathe.

Owen had pulmonary valve stenosis, a condition in which a deformity on the heart slows blood flow into the lungs. Owen and his father, Tom, were immediately airlifted from Regina to Saskatoon for emergency heart surgery. Rozlynn, having just undergone a cesarean section, had to stay behind.

“It all happened so fast. You don’t even have time to think. We asked, ‘Does he have time to go home and get stuff ?’ and they said, ‘No. We have no idea when the flight crew’s going to be here, and if you’re not here when they are that’s too bad,” Rozlynn said.

“He went with the clothes on his back. He had nothing. When he got there, it was like, where is he going to stay? There was no car because he’d flown out there with my son. He found the Ronald McDonald House then.”

That was the Buzzeo family’s introduction to the Ronald McDonald House. Soon they would come to view it as a home away from home.

Ronald McDonald House Charities is an international organization that provides affordable living for families with children 18 years of age or younger who are undergoing medical care. Saskatoon’s house is the only one of its kind in Saskatchewan.

Flash forward four years, and Rozlynn is now a proud mother of five.

She lovingly counts her sons off as one singleton followed by two sets of twins — each of which had a brother who came into the world with a severe heart defect.

Quintin, who makes up the Buzzeo’s youngest pair alongside his brother Ethan, was born with only half a heart.

Rozlynn’s experience being separated from Owen during his complications, despite its happy ending, had been a crushing experience for her. Thanks to her husband’s time at the Ronald McDonald House, it was one she wouldn’t have to repeat.

“Even though I had children at

home that needed me, still not being able to be there for Owen really put a hole in my heart. When Quinn was born, we knew that we didn’t want to have that happen again. The house has made it possible for all of us to stay together and support each other and be there for each other.”

Keeping up with Quintin’s condition has meant repeated trips to and from Saskatoon for the Buzzeo family, with everything from blood work to changes in medication to multiple heart surgeries meaning another trek northward from their Regina home — and another stay

in the multi-story home known by its patrons as The House That Love Built.

After long stretches watching over her son at the hospital, Rozlynn described returning to the house to see that its volunteers had prepared a hot meal.

A lot of these people have their kids with them. They’re coming back with a family that’s tired from staying at the hospital or with kids doing chemo who aren’t feeling good. Food is such an important thing. ­— Darlene Kruger

“That’s huge. That means you can stay at the hospital with your children all day and you can be there for them. When we’re staying at the house as a whole family, I don’t have to worry about — oh my goodness — what am I going to cook for dinner tonight?”

••• When her mother died, Darlene Kruger learned firsthand how difficult it can be to do something as simple as cooking a decent meal in times of stress.

She remembers coming home from the hospital after sitting with her mom for hours, standing in the kitchen and feeling too drained to prepare any food. Now she’s volunteering with the Ronald McDonald House to ease similar situations for other families.

“A lot of these people have their kids with them. They’re coming back with a family that’s tired from staying at the hospital or with kids doing chemo who aren’t feeling good,” she said.

“Food is such an important thing.”

When Kruger retired in 2014, she looked to volunteering as a means of maintaining a regular day-today schedule while helping her community.

Though she wasn’t entirely aware what the Ronald McDonald House was, she found it had a use for the strengths she’d developed over a career as a registered nurse and a home life as a mother and grandmother.

“I had driven by it the 15 years that I had worked in Saskatoon, and I never knew what it was. I read a little bit online and I realized — I love cooking and I love baking, and I thought I would love to have a volunteer job where I could use some of those skills.”

Kruger is what’s known as a general volunteer. Though the Ronald McDonald House welcomes a wide net of specialized volunteers doing anything from gardening to maintenance, Kruger’s average shift has her tackling a little bit of everything.

We say quiet time is 11 o’clock, but there are sometimes moms baking at two in the morning because they can’t sleep ­— and they can do that here. – Tammy Forrester

Ronald McDonald House executive director Tammy Forrester says the goal of the houses across the world is to make them feel like homes, not institutions. QC Photo by Greg Pender

Her specialty is digging through the fridge to see what food there’s too much of and whipping together a meal from what’s available. Other days she’ll make sure the cookie jars are fully stocked with fresh treats to welcome incoming families. Sometimes she simply lends a sympathetic ear.

“Not that long ago, I was sitting and peeling potatoes for the supper.

One of the grandmas came in and she was looking for someone to talk to,” Kruger said.

“She was there supporting her family, who had a child in the hospital, and she was just needing for someone to sit and talk with her.

She said, ‘I don’t want my family to

know how I’m feeling. They’re dealing with so much.’ ” ••• The sight is not an uncommon one for volunteers and employees at the home. For the Ronald McDonald House, having personnel on hand to listen, give parents a break by strolling their baby around the block or preparing a meal to welcome them back from the hospital is business as usual.

“For the most part, they’re just surprised when they get here because they don’t know what to expect from a Ronald McDonald House unless they’ve been to one. I think they’re overwhelmed by the support that or-

ganically happens here,” said Tammy Forrester, executive director for Saskatoon’s Ronald McDonald House.

“We’ve got a really strong, caring, loving staff, but we also extend that to our volunteers.”

Forrester describes the house’s initial 1985 design as being similar to a bed and breakfast, with families staying in its 13 rooms sharing amenities such as bathrooms. Last year, construction was finished on an expansion that added another 21 suites, 30,000 square feet and made sharing restrooms a thing of the past.

At only $10 a night per family, the house offers a clear financial incentive for families in need. But, Forrester says, typical visitors are a

blend of those who couldn’t otherwise afford accommodations while their children seek medical care and those who rely on its services to make their stay in the city feel closer to their routine.

The house offers a host of amenities to make it feel more like home: two full kitchens, laundry on each of its four floors, a fitness centre for parents, a barbecue and patio ready for the heat of summer and even a media room with a Nintendo Wii for when poor weather keeps families hunkered indoors — all of which is available around the clock.

“We say quiet time is 11 o’clock, but there are sometimes moms baking at two in the morning because

they can’t sleep — and they can do that here. It’s that free flowing ability to just be at home in this space,” Forrester said.

“I think most of the families really appreciated that opportunity to live here when they need to.”

It all adds up to what Forrester says is a welcoming, supportive spirit that sets the Ronald McDonald House apart from other temporary housing.

“That is really the goal of houses across the world: to make it feel like a home away from home, not to feel like an institution or a hotel. We want people to feel comfortable here.

Some people stay for months, and this really is their home,” she said.

The people there genuinely care about you. When you come home from a long day, they ask, ‘How are things? How’s your baby doing?’ ­­­– Rozlynn Buzzeo

••• The Buzzeo’s longest stay in hospital was 42 days, and they thank the Ronald McDonald House for making such trying times a little easier.

“Without the house, I don’t know that there’d have been a way for all of us to stay together as a family while Quinn was undergoing his lifesaving surgeries. Who’d want to put up with a family of seven?”

Between visits, Rozlynn spends her spare time putting together collections of stuffed animals and care packages of small items — crayons and colouring books usually bring a smile — to hand deliver next time she’s in Saskatoon. She says the gesture is a small step toward returning some of the love she’s felt walking through its doors.

“The people there genuinely care about you. When you come home from a long day, they ask, ‘How are things? How’s your baby doing?’ They

have a genuine love and compassion for the children and the families that stay there.”

Rozlynn is also on the planning committee for the Red Shoe Walk, an event in its inaugural year taking place Sept. 12 in Saskatoon, Sept. 13 in Regina and other Saskatchewan cities. On those days, supporters of all ages will take part in a walk to raise awareness for the Ronald McDonald House and to pledge their support for its cause.

“They’ve done so much for us and for our families. It’s the very least that I can do in my crazy life to help support them in any way that I can.

We’re a large family. We’re single income, but I can give my time,” she said. “It is a cause that’s very close to our hearts. If there’s anything I can do for the Ronald McDonald House, I do it.” htglazebrook@thestarphoenix.com

JOHNNY 2 FINGERS AND THE DEFORMITIES

Dale creates his own guitar style

By Ashley Martin Playing music is John Dale’s priority.

It’s why he lives in a leaky-roofed shack (his words). It’s why he has two vehicles — one is a van specifically for band tour use. It’s why he has maintained casual employment in spite of being offered managerial positions (not that he doesn’t like his work at Citizens All, an organization that offers support for people with intellectual disabilities).

“Being able to express myself is more important than making a comfortable sum,” said Dale, frontman of Moose Jaw rock band Johnny 2 Fingers and the Deformities. “For the part of my mind that is rather logical, there’s a lot of easier ways to make money, to make a living.”

But “there’s something about playing, even listening to other music … and I get goosebumps,” said Dale.

“It’s a release. It does move me.”

When Dale was 17, a 13-year-old guitarist inspired him to learn to play.

But it was no easy feat.

Dale was born with bilateral femoral proximal deficiency — deformed hips, club feet, short femurs, and two fingers fused on his right hand.

Surgery at age three separated the digits.

Learning to play guitar was challenging because, for one thing, “my wrist doesn’t work the same as other people.”

For another, “I can’t really go to YouTube and look for pick techniques. Nobody’s got this thing.”

Regular tools of the trade don’t work for Dale.

“When I very first started, I tried to duct tape a pick to my finger, which didn’t work very well — it fell off,” said Dale. “I had to learn my own way.”

His friend Dan McMillan made him an elaborate pick apparatus from Velcro and a milk jug. It was a “big cumbersome hook that hung between my fingers and it attached

around my wrist” — but it broke.

Now Dale uses a pick designed by a prosthetist.

Playing guitar is complicated, but worthwhile because “it’s a passion,” said Dale. “It’s frustrating during it, but you can’t let that stuff consume you. You’ve got to go back and try to overcome your challenges, otherwise you’ll be a victim all your life.

“Just try to play through it and play better,” Dale added, riffing on his guitar as he spoke.

Dale delved into singer-songwriter covers after Black Sabbath’s Electric Funeral proved too challenging to pull off solo.

Johnny 2 Fingers formed in 2011, when Dale started jamming with “Cannonball” Kelly Gower (drums/

harmonica/vocals). Bassist Brett McKay joined in last year. Singer and “legend” Frank Felt, 73, joins the trio in their Moose Jaw shows.

Dale writes songs about “real life things,” but steers clear of love songs.

“It’s oversaturated,” he said. “I want to show the world that there’s other things to sing about than sing-

ing about your relationships in front of everybody else.”

Johnny 2 Fingers and the Deformities is planning shows for the end of October. In the meantime, Dale has two solo shows scheduled — Sept. 12 in Indian Head, and Sept. 23 at the Regina German Club. amartin@leaderpost.com Twitter.com/LPAshleyM

HAROLD CHAPMAN

Sharing My Life: Building the Co-operative Movement Sharing My Life: Building the Co-operative Movement is my memoir of over 60 years on the importance of cooperatives in building the economy and social fabric of Saskatchewan. I want that this social history will not be forgotten and that it will be passed on to younger generations.

I show how co-operatives have been and can be a vital part of the economy, community and social development. This book is a road map to understand the history and practice of the co-operative movement, and to celebrate the building and variety of co-operatives that have been organized over many decades.

A key part of Sharing My Life is the importance of adult education

and human development. The strength of strong co-operatives depends very much on co-op members understanding the democratic and business functions Harold Chapman of co-operatives.

There is an absolute necessity of education and awareness building among co-operative members and civil society in order to foster an active and informed membership and citizenship.

I have worked nationally and internationally on co-operative organizing and I am mindful of the Danish Folk School message that “the natu-

ral life of a co-operative without an education program is a generation and a half.” I feel this is as true now as ever.

Sharing My Life is a memoir written to help others think, understand and practise co-operativism. It is a contribution to an alternative view of how citizens can manage their economy and society in a co-operative way, where people come before profits and where the social ethic shapes the economic model.

The various chapters of my book give a panoramic view of the social and economic roots of co-operatives.

They range from early influences, co-operative development, agricultural production co-operatives, co-

operative philosophy and principles, and adult learning and development — all interspersed with stories of my personal life experiences.

My experience with co-operative development and adult education and my commitment to the belief that people working together can control their own destiny motivated me to pick up my pen and go to work on my memoirs.

It is my hope that my account can serve the co-operative movement and inspire those committed to the practise of cooperative social change.

Ratatouille uses up extra garden vegetables

By Renee Kohlman This is the time of year when gardens and markets are bursting with lovely fresh produce.

Sure you can be neighbourly and stuff zucchini into mailboxes to help with the inventory, and I don’t know anyone who would turn down an offering of home­grown tomatoes, but even then, there will come a time when you just have so much you need to use it up right now. That’s where ratatouille comes into the picture.

From the French verb “touiller” meaning “to stir up,” ratatouille originated in the area around present day Nice as a peasant dish cooked up by farmers. This vegetable stew is the perfect project for a lazy Sunday afternoon.

While it’s an easy dish to prepare, it does take some time to chop the vegetables and cook them separately.

However, once they are all in the pot, mingling away, you just sit back and relax and give the pot a bit of a stir every 20 minutes or so. For firmer vegetables, cook it for less time.

While it’s perfectly acceptable to eat ratatouille the day it’s made, I prefer it warmed up the next day, after the flavour has developed. Serve it warm in a bowl, drizzled with your finest olive oil. Have a hunk of good bread at the ready. You may also toss it with hot pasta, spoon it over polenta, bake eggs in it and it makes a mighty fine pizza topping. The possibilities are endless.

Ratatouille >2 large eggplants >2 large onions, diced >3 sweet bell peppers, chopped >8 medium zucchini, chopped >4 large tomatoes, chopped >4 tbsp olive oil >1⁄2 cup red wine >6 cloves garlic, minced >2 bay leaves >5 sprigs thyme >1 tsp smoked paprika >1 tsp red chili flakes >2 tsp honey >1⁄2 cup loosely packed fresh basil, sliced into ribbons > 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar >salt and pepper >basil for garnish

Instructions: Chop eggplant into bite­sized chunks. Place them in a strainer set over a bowl and toss with 1 tbsp salt. Let the eggplant hang out here while you prepare the rest of the vegetables.

The vegetables are cooked in batches, so be sure to place your chopped veg in separate bowls. Warm 1 tbsp olive oil in a very large pot­

at least 5 litres over medium high heat. Add the diced onions and a generous pinch of salt.

Cook for about 5 minutes. Add peppers and cook until softened, 5 minutes. Transfer onions and peppers to large, clean bowl.

Add another tbsp olive oil and sauté zucchini chunks with a bit of salt until zucchini is soft and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes.

Transfer to bowl with onions and peppers.

Rinse the eggplant under running water and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.

Warm 1 tbsp olive oil and sauté eggplant until soft, about 10 minutes. Move it to the bowl with other vegetables. Deglaze pan with red wine, being sure to scrape up any brown bits from bottom. Pour this liquid into the bowl with vegetables.

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in pot over medium high heat and add minced garlic. Cook until garlic is just golden and fragrant, being sure not to burn it. Add the tomatoes, bay leaves, thyme springs, smoked paprika and chili flakes. As the tomatoes bubble away, be sure to scrape up brown bits from bottom of pot. Add all of the cooked vegetables to pot and stir to make sure everything is evenly mixed. Bring stew to a simmer, uncovered, then reduce heat to medium low. Stir occasionally, simmer for at least one hour, longer for a more silky stew.

Remove bay leaves and thyme sprigs. Stir in honey, sliced basil and balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Divide into bowls, sprinkle with more sliced basil and a glug of good olive oil. Serve with fresh bread. Makes 8 servings.

ON THE SCENE #

D o u g l a s Pa r k S c h o o l 1.

Back-to-school time is greeted with a gamut of emotions by students, parents and teachers. Some embrace it; others, not so much. To ease the transition back into the classroom, Douglas Park School hosted an outdoor welcome event on Sept. 1, the first day of school. Mother Nature co-operated, welcoming students with warm temperatures and sunshine ― ideal for some school-yard playtime before classes commenced.

Things are bad all over. Oil broke $40. The Riders were heading for a perfect season prior to Labour Day. And the land positively oozes politicians wanting to shake your hand and kiss your baby. (Hint: always carry a few Wet Ones in case of snap elections.) Things haven’t been this bad since Delta Tau Chi was put on double secret probation. Festivities are clearly needed.

But how can you have an end of summer party without sauvignon blanc? Well you can still afford the stuff if you put down that bottle of Cloudy Bay and wander over to the Chilean section of the store.

Chile (another country suffering from the commodity price crash) prices their sauvignon blanc at bargain basement prices. You can get very nice wine for about $15. For example, look at Luis Felipe Edwards Reserva Sauvignon Blanc.

This is a wine with tremendous fruit. I’d guess they’ve oaked some of the contents as there is a slightly stronger bass note to both the bouquet and the palate. It tends to be just a bit herbaceous, with a some minerality (more than will be found in most Kiwi sauvignon blanc) and joyous burst of grapefruit to finish. Every time I have a glass I want to order a dozen oysters on the shell.
