MANY GIFTS, ONE SPrniTThIs issue of The Spirit opens with a remarkable story of triumph over tragedy

that involves my very good friend Dr. Gary Haug, and the extraordinary team of

St. Luke’s physicians who coordinated their care and gave my friend his life back.

What makes Gary’s story even more compelling is that day in and day out, physicians,

nurses and support staff all over St. Luke’s draw on each others’ expertise and take

innovative approaches to saving lives and returning quality of life to those who had

given up hope.

In these pages, you’ll also meet some special donors who give generously in the form

of time, talent and resources—people who have found a way of giving to others

which satisfies them most. Some donate hand-sewn clothing for the babies born here

or proceeds from the sale of handmade ornaments. Others devote their time to

serving on boards or committees, or set aside days to help put together one of

St. Luke’s mailing campaigns. Still others give of their personal resources. This issue

introduces St. Luke’s new Hanover Society, an organization which honors individuals

who are able to step up to a leadership level of giving.

Whatever gifts our donors choose to share—resources, time or talent—the result is

the same. All give of themselves and demonstrate the true heart of philanthropy . .

giving to touch the life of another, and to experience the satisfaction of knowing that

an urgent need in our community is met.

A JoURNEY TO PAN, AND BACK AGAIN

A RARE DISEASE, TREATED BY EXCEPTIONAL TEAJ4

BChristmas of 2000, Dr. Gary Haug was

convinced he was going to die.

His bleak outlook on life resulted from a set of tragiccircumstances that began in 1998, when Gary’s 21-year-old son suffered a debilitating stroke requiring severalbrain surgeries. The stress of his son’s illness causedGary to develop a disease of his own, with symptomsso mysterious and painful that he was forced to give upa thriving ophthalmology practice. He was confined toa wheelchair, in acute pain. “It felt like the bones in myfeet were being crushed 24 hours a day,” he recalled.Symptoms of a heart ailment and back problems soonappeared. The doctors he consulted were baffled at hisdeteriorating condition.

Today, Gary has his life back. He walks daily and hasrecovered a spring in his step and a zest for living. SonAndrew is back in music school, pursuing a career as aprofessional drummer.

If you ask him today, Gary will enthusiastically creditthe source of his turnaround. “The people at St. Luke’ssaved two lives; both mine and my son’s,” he said. “Wewere on a path of destruction, and I don’t know what wewould have done if they hadn’t worked with us to stop it.”

A SUIJDEN NUMBNESS

The first sign of Gary’s debilitating health trouble camein October 1999 in an Orlando, Florida hotel room. Hewoke one morning to prepare for a day-long medicalconference, only to find that his hands were numb. “Ithought maybe I’d just slept with my hands in a funnyposition, and it would wear off,” he remembered.Surprisingly, his fingertips were still numb at noon. Bythe end of the conference, he was concerned enough tocancel a surgery later in the week. He saw his doctorafter returning home to Minoqua in northernWisconsin, and received a dual surprise: he had diabetesand neuropathy, a diabetes-related deterioration of thenerves in his hands, feet, arms and legs.

Gary and his wife Glenda believe the sudden onset ofdiabetes and neuropathy was partially brought on by

stress of dealing with son Andrew’s 199$ stroke. Theparents stood helplessly by as their grown son enduredextreme pain, multiple surgical procedures and

“IT FELT LIIKE THE BONES N MY FEET

WERE BEING CRUSHED 24 HOURS A DAY”

a serious infection of the dura, the protective membranesurrounding the brain. Relief for Andrew didn’t comeuntil close family friend Brad Holmes, vice president ofphilanthropy in Aurora Health Care’s Metro Region(and Andrew’s godparent), talked with Dr. ArvindAhuja, a neurosurgeon at St. Luke’s. After Bradexplained the problems Andrew was experiencing, Dr.Ahuja urged the Haugs to bring their son to St. Luke’sas quickly as possible to fight the infection’s spread.Their immediate trip to Milwaukee and the subsequentsurgery at St. Luke’s began a life-saving turnaround,which eventually led to Andrew’s full recovery. “Wewere so fortunate in Andrew’s case,” Brad observed.“Dr. Ahuja indicated that if Andrew had come here anylater, the infection could have reached his brain andkilled him.”

4THE SPIR;TOFST. LUKE’S

Gary’s own physical hea1th was soon to rival Andrew’sin seriousness. The first signs of illness came in January2000, and it soon became obvious that this was morethan common neuropathy. By March, the 54-year-oldphysician’s illness forced him to quit medicine, sell hisbusy northern Wisconsin ophthalmology practice andgo into a premature retirement. Even this didn’t stopGary’s condition from advancing beyond neuropathy’snormal progression. Doctors at his local hospital and anorthern regional medical center were perplexed at hisunusually rapid deterioration, and offered contradictorytheories about how it should be treated. “It was extremelyfrustrating,” Gary recalled. “I kept telling them what Ithought was wrong. The confusion, coupled with thepain I was experiencing, really started to drag me down.”

DESPERATE DAYS

Extreme pain became a daily companion. On a 1-10pain scale where ten is the worst discomfort imaginable,Gary was routinely living with sevens and eights. Hewas receiving large doses of oral morphine, yet was souncomfortable that he managed only 2-3 hours of sleep

per night. In addition, gastrointestinal difficulties andthe side effects of medication led to a serious drop inbody weight. “From the waist down, he was just skinand bones,” wife Glenda recalled. “I was very, veryconcerned about him.”

Back at St. Luke’s in Milwaukee, Gary’s close friendBrad Holmes was becoming concerned as well. A casualpre-Christmas call to the Haugs led to a retelling of thefull story: the physical deterioration, the acute pain, thepuzzled doctors and an increasing frustration at theinability of the health care system to meet their needs.Gary told Brad he “felt like a number” at the hospitalhe was using. “It blew my mind how inattentive theywere . . . and I’m a physician. I know the system,” Garyrecalled. “I can’t imagine how someone unfamiliar withmedical care manages to go through this.”

In response, Brad urged his friend to come toMilwaukee and check in at St. Luke’s. “I know Dr. JayFindling, one of the top experts on diabetes, and I feltthat he needed to see Gary as soon as possible.” Bradpromised Gary and Glenda he would talk with Dr.Findling right away, and actually reached him earlyMonday morning. “I told Jay about my very close, per-sonal friend—who was also a colleague of his whom hedidn’t even know—who needed his help.” Dr. Findlingimmediately agreed to see Gary, without hesitation.“That, to me, is what makes St. Luke’s so very special,”Brad stated. “The way physicians like Jay respond topatients is terrific. I owe him my thanks for agreeing tosee my friend the very next day.”

Meanwhile, the Haugs were bracing themselves for thelong admission wait they had experienced in past hospitalstays. To their surprise, they were in a room at St. Luke’sbefore noon on the day they arrived in Milwaukee.Gary and Glenda were even more surprised by themedical staff’s responsiveness. “They had thingsorchestrated like a symphony, “ Glenda recalled. “ Garywas admitted at I 1:00, and by 4:00 he’d had consultswith six doctors. We had never experienced this qualityof care anywhere else. The fact that this took place just afew days before Christmas made it even more surprising.”

LIGHT AT TUNNEL’S END

Gary’s first Christmas gift that year came within tenminutes of meeting Dr. Findling, director of theEndocrine Diabetes Center at St. Luke’s. After an exam-ination, he instantly recognized the symptoms of a rare

diabetes-related ailment called neuropathic cachexia.“It isn’t surprising that the other doctors weren’t ableto recognize the problem,” said Dr. Findling. “We haveone of the country’s leading endocrine practices here,and we’ve only seen two or three cases in twenty years.”The name cachexia comes from the Greek words kakosfor “bad” and hexis for “condition.” The rare formwhich manifests itself in diabetics commonly causesextreme weight loss in the trunk and lower extremities,without affecting the upper body. Sufferers lose both fatand muscle mass in trunk and legs, causing eventualdifficulty in walking. The deterioration is typicallyaccompanied by extreme physical discomfort. Doctorsdon’t know what causes the disease. Research points toan autoimmune reaction in the body, of the sort whichcommonly brings on rheumatoid arthritis.

Before the morning was over, Dr. Findling was coordinating consultations with specialists to attack otherproblems related to Gary’s cachexia. “I knew we weregoing to have to put our heads together to help him,”he recalled. “Dealing with the disease . . . and especiallythe pain issues . . . was lust beginning. But simply havinga firm diagnosis made Dr. Haug feel a lot better.”

Soon, a team of St. Luke’s doctors was on the Haugcase. Neurologist James C. Barton, MD, assessed thenerve damage caused by the disease to date. “He experienced one of the biggest advantages of a hospital like St.Luke’s,” Dr. Barton said. “At a community hospital,physicians are only around in the early morning and lateafternoon, after they’ve completed their office hours,”he said. “At St. Luke’s, we circulate through the hospitalall day long. We’re more available to see a patient, or toconsult with other doctors on a particular case.”

World renowned gastroenterologist Joseph E. Geenen,MD, also joined the case on that first day. He discoveredgastroperesis, a stomach disorder which limits theorgan’s ability to digest food. After consulting withother doctors on the team, he prescribed Gary anantibiotic which causes stomach upset in typicalpatients, yet proves of great benefit to those withgastroperesis. “It’s a fairly uncommon treatment,” saidDr. Geenen. “Even in a hospital as large as this, we onlysee two or three patients like Dr. Haug per year. That’sone of the virtues of a place like St. Luke’s . . . we see itall, and we have a broader range of experience to drawupon in a difficult case.”

Even more important,the doctors agreed, is the opportunity to confer with a variety of specialists about theneeds of a particular patient. “It isn’t like a cooperativetreatment or setting up a meeting to discuss treatments,”explained Dr. Barton, “it’s more like a sharing of ideas.It’s informal, yet it’s real . . . and it offers a very realpatient benefit.”

For Dr. Geenen, the process takes a slightly moreorganized form. The hospital’s 22 gastroenterologyspecialists gather in weekly meetings with radiologistsand oncologists to discuss patients with difficult diagnoses.“We try to learn as much as we can from one another,”he said. “We have some very experienced colleagueswho add their wisdom, and some doctors on medicalfellowships who know a lot about the latest advances.As a result, our patients benefit by getting the best ofboth worlds.”

By the first day’s end, the Haug team could see a notice-able improvement in their patient. “He was betterpractically within an hour from the time I first sawhim,” said Dr. Findling. A key was having a conclusivediagnosis after months of waiting and wondering. “Whenyou finally meet a doctor who can tell you exactlywhat’s wrong with you,” he added, “it’s a tremendousrelief and a real boost of confidence for the patient.”

A míivi OF PAN SPECIALISTS

Within the first day of Gary’s stay, tests conducted byelectrophysiologist Stephen Denker, MD, ruled out thepossibility of suspected cardiac difficulties or backproblems. This freed the team of physicians to addressthe issue of pain management, Gary and Glenda’s #1concern. “By the time we got to St. Luke’s, the pain wasso bad Gary almost wanted to die,” Glenda recalled.“After the pain management people went to work, it

was like watching a person get his life back.”

A pain management team moved into action as soon asthe Haugs arrived. Mark Aasen, MD, was the first painspecialist to see Gary that day. He knew immediatelythat this was a patient whose life was about to changefor the better. The team, led by Jonathan Kay, MD,and John Brusky, MD, co-directors of Aurora’s Pain

Management Center, began with a conservativeapproach and quickly moved to more aggressive measures.“We recognized very quickly that Dr. Haug had quite aunique case,” Dr. Kay recalled. “The type of neuropathyhe had was progressive and very severe. We see possiblyone case a year that has a severity as devastating as his.”

“THAT’S ONE OF THE VIRTUES OF A

PLACE LIKE ST. LUKE’S . . . WE SEE IT

ALL, AND WE HAVE A BROADER

RANGE OF EXPERIENCE TO DRAW

UPON IN A DIFFICULT CASE.”

The doctors agreed to try a completely differentapproach, according to Dr. Aasen. “We knew he wason heavy doses of narcotics and they weren’t giving himrelief,” he remembered. “We thought we’d achieve betterresults with a medication pump, which applies painmedication directly to the spine in small continuousdoses. “ The pump minimizes the up-and-down cycle ofmedication levels an oral medication can bring.

SWEET RELIEF

The pump’s effect was striking, and offered the Haugstheir first taste of true pain relief in many months.“The pain went from a (level) eight to a (level) one inno time,” Gary recalled. Further improvement camethrough regular sessions with Michael Jorn, PhD, apsychologist on the pain team, who helped Gary dealwith the emotional after-effects of months in pain.“People who are in pain can experience a loss, just likea death,” said Dr. Jorn. “In Dr. Haug’s case, he experienced a literal job loss as well. I was able to help himwork through some of the emotional pain thatcommonly goes along with the physical discomfort.”Dr. Jorn also taught Gary some self-hypnosis techniquesthat can help minimize the remaining discomfort withoutmedication.

While specialists helped Gary recover his emotionalequilibrium, others at St. Luke’s were helping himbounce back physically. Foremost in Gary and Glenda’smemory were the members of the hospital’s 10th floornursing staff, “who performed outstandingly,” Garyenthused. “I’ve known nurses who were technicallycorrect, but offered nothing beyond technique. Thatwasn’t the case at St. Luke’s . . . they were skilled, andexceptionally caring, too. “ He especially appreciatedthe little “extras” the nurses offered, like sharing copiesof their favorite videos to enjoy during sleepless nights.The same thoughtfulness and dedication came from St.Luke’s physical therapists, who helped Gary recover hismobility. “They were pretty good-natured when I calledthem ‘The Pain and Torture Team,” he said. “I wasn’ttoo eager to get up and move around, but thanks totheir encouragement I was soon walking the halls.”

“I FELT SO HELPLESS BEFORE WE WENT

TO ST. LUKE’S. I WAS BECOMING

ACCUSTOMED TO A LIFE OF ACUTE PAIN.”

After Gary’s ten-day hospital stay ended, the Haugswere once again able to think of the future. The annualNew Years family vacation to Mexico, which had beenindefinitely postponed, was made possible by theimplantation of an internal pain medication pump. Thehockey-puck-sized device, implanted in Gary’s side,administered three months worth of highly concentratedmedication in tiny constant doses. “I was morecomfortable than I’d been in a year, and with 1/300 ofthe drug amount I’d been taking before,” he declared.The Haugs were able to continue the healing in thewarm sunshine of Puerto Vallarta. At the end of theirmonth in Mexico, they rented an apartment in Tucson,Arizona, to further assist the rest and walking therapy.“I was feeling a lot better,” Gary recalled, “but not wellenough to face a Wisconsin winter. That has alwaysbeen a little too much pain for me! “ he quipped.

By April of this year, Gary and Glenda were happilyback at home in Minoqua. Pain is still a part of Gary’slife, though his discomfort doesn’t nearly come close tothe magnitude it was a year ago. His mobility is stillmildly limited and he continues to improve his range ofmotion with a regimen of daily walking.

With his new outlook on life, Gary expresses profoundgratitude for the medical hurdles he’s overcome, and theimprovements still to come. “I really believe that St.Luke’s is to be commended,” affirms Glenda. “Theyreally made the difference for us.”

Her husband heartily agrees. “I felt so helpless beforewe went to St. Luke’s. I was becoming accustomed to alife of acute pain. Now I feel I can look to the futurewith a sense of hope.”

“I also learned a valuable lesson about modernmedicine,” he added. “You have to find the hospitaland the team of doctors that’s right for you. For us,that place is St. Luke’s. “

8 THE SPIRii Of Si. LuKE’s

I a perfect world, flO vne in a hospital would experienceany pain. While that ideal has yet to be realized, dedicatedpain management specialists at St. Luke’s Medical Centerare taking innovative and far-reaching approaches to keepingpatients as pain-free as possible.

“If you’re here and you’re in pain, we’ll he seeing you,” saidJonathan Kay, MD, of the Pain Management Center at St.Luke’s. Sharing responsibilities with John Brusky, MD,Dr. Kay is co-director of a multidisciplinary team of painspecialists focused on bringing comfort to patients 24-hours-a-day, 365-days-a-year. “As far as we know,” he adds,“we’re the only hospital in the area that treats inpatient painmanagement on this comprehensive a level.”

Providing this depth of service means addressing a patient’spain from every possible perspective. Eight Pain ManagementCenter physicians lead the effort. Most are specialists inanesthesiology, and some have additional training in familypractice and internal medicine. The team also featurespharmacists with special expertise in pain medication, andnurses chosen for their experience and specialized training inpain management. Each team includes an on-staff psychologistwith expertise in biofeedback, self-hypnosis and othernon-medical coping mechanisms.

The justification for this unparalleled coordination of care isa practical one. Studies continue to point to a relationshipbetween better pain control and faster physical healing.Evidence shows that extreme pain can depress the immunesystem and slow the pace of recovery. Patients distracted bypain are also less likely to comply with the routine therapies(like coughing and deep breathing to recover respiratoryfunction after a surgery) that speed the healing process.

The St. Luke’s pain management specialists are also workingto update the approach physicians typically take to pain care.The traditional belief was that medication should be minimized,to avoid the possibility of drug dependency in patients. Thisapproach left many patients undermedicated, and causedthem to suffer unnecessary pain. “We are concerned with

overmedication as well, so we begin the medication process

conservatively,” explained Dr. Kay. “The difference lies in our

ability to coordinate our care, which allows us to keep better

track of a patient’s progress. We can respond very promptly

when a conservative approachis proving ineffective. “ Theresult, he said, is greaterpatient comfort withoutexcess medication.

Another key to the team’s success is its willingness to allow ...

patients to define and managetheir own level of pain. “We believe what a patient says,”said Michael Jorn, PhD, one of three clinical psychologists atthe Pain Management Center. “When a patient comes intomy office, I like to believe that they are truly in pain. I don’ttell people that it’s all in their heads. It’s real to them, and I’mhere to help them address the source of their pain—whateverthat source may be.”

While the practice of pain management has improved, Dr.Kay still stresses the need for a delicate balance betweendealing with necessary pain and elimination of all discomfort.“We all struggle with what appropriate expectations shouldbe,” he said. “That’s why we see our work as a succession oflittle victories, rather than an instant, magical success.”

One of the most notable successes of the Pain ManagementCenter is the pioneering use of computerized pain medicationpumps. The pump is able to apply very concentrated painmedication directly to the base of the spinal cord, where it isable to travel directly to the source of discomfort withoutunnecessarily dulling the patient’s senses in the process. Anumber of the center’s patients have had a small, portableversion of the pump implanted beneath their skin. A tinycomputer within the implanted device can deliver precisedoses of medication for months at a time, freeing the patientfrom the need to take a daily oral prescription. “Pump therapyhas really blossomed,” notes Dr. Kay. “Since I started inpractice, things have made such a dramatic change for thebetter. With our multi-disciplinary approach and technologieslike the pump, we’ve really been able to go a long, long way.”

Despite remarkable advances, doctors at the PainManagement Center must deal with the fact that pain is anatural part of life that will never be totally eliminated.“Once in a while you hit a home run,” said Dr. Kay. “That’swhat keeps you going and makes it all worthwhile.” Y

HER SHINY ORNAMENTS INCLUDE A RAY OF HOPE

Simply by looking at one ofWendy Paustian’s Christmasornaments, you can see half of

the reason they are a crowdfavorite at craft fairs. To find theother half you’ll need to look intothe heart of a woman who caresdeeply about curing one ofAmerica’s most dreaded diseases.

A clue to Wendy’s inner motivationcan be found in a sign displayed atthe booth she and her husband

John have taken to craft showsacross Southeastern Wisconsin.Proceeds benefit breast cancerresearch at St. Luke’s MedicalCenter says the sign, wedged inamong the woodenracks of shiny span-gled, richly coloredholiday baubles.Unlike the show’sother crafty entrepreneurs, Wendy’sprofits are purely forcharity. “To tell youthe truth,” Wendystated, “I’m not certam whether they goover because theyare so cute, orbecause they supportsuch a good cause.”

There is no questionthat Wendy’s dedication to creating the gifts is strong.Thus far she has created over 1,200ornaments, each featuring 45-60pieces of cloth ribbon folded andwrapped by hand around a styrofoam egg. Nearly half of her mas

terpieces have been given awaywithout charge. “If you are a breastcancer survivor and you stop byour booth, you get anornament...no charge,” Wendysaid. “Plenty of people have tried topay me, but I wouldn’t think oftaking the money.”

By now, the hobby has become soinvolving that ribbons, eggs andstickpins threaten to take over theliving room in the Paustian’s south-side Milwaukee home. Each mdi-vidually handmade creation takes30-45 minutes of her time. “Everytime I finish one, I hug it and say, ‘Ican’t part with this one.’ My hus

band looks aroundthe room at all theribbons and pins andornaments and says,‘Oh yes you can!”she quipped.

The entire ornamental odyssey beganwith a call from afriend who was abreast cancer survivor. She had justdiscovered the directions for making theornament, andthought Wendywould enjoy givingthe project a try. “Six

weeks later I had made over 100,”she recalled. “They are so comfort-ing to make and so adorable tolook at, I couldn’t stop makingthem!”

Soon afterward, she began givingornaments away to staff membersin the doctors’ offices she frequent-ed (Wendy suffers from a debilitating but non-life-threatening heartailment). She later began selling afew to staff members who wantedto give them as gifts. “One day Iwas telling a doctor about it, andhe asked me why I was runningmyself ragged from doctor’s officeto doctor’s office when I could goto a craft show and sit down incomfort,” she said. Soon after, shedecided to combine her hobby witha desire to help cure breast cancer.

Wendy’s concern centers around themost common form of canceramong women. It is estimated that192,000 cases of breast cancer willbe diagnosed in 2001 amongAmerican women alone, along withover a million cases worldwide.More than 40,000 U.S. deaths willbe attributed to breast cancer in thenext year.

“Practically everybody knowssomebody who has had breast can-cer,” Wendy said. She is no exception. In addition to the friend whointroduced her to ornaments, shehas a dear cousin who is a 26-yearsurvivor of the disease. Wendy alsohas two healthy daughters, whichgive her more reason to be con-cerned about a disease which willstrike one woman in eight some-time in life. “I do this in respect forall the women around me,” sheadded.

Wendy is also motivated by arespect for the cancer care workperformed at St. Luke’s. She had afirsthand look at the VinceLombardi Cancer Clinic’s capabilitywhen she accompanied her cousinfor cancer treatment. “I was soimpressed from the moment Iwalked in the front door,” shestated. “They are so positive at St.Luke’s. We see so much negative inthe world...I think their spirit oughtto be rewarded.” She was alsoimpressed by the efficiency of theVince Lombardi Cancer Clinic.“From what I have read and seen,they are doing the most work formy dollar,” she noted.

‘CPRACTICALLY EVERYBODY

KNOWS SOMEBODY WHO

HAS HAD BREAST CANCER.

I DO THIS IN RESPECT

FOR ALL THE WOMEN

AROUND ME.”

If Wendy’s experiences are any mdi-cation, the ornament selling business is having a therapeutic effectof its own on people whose livesare touched by breast cancer. Shecites one instance in particular ofmeeting a woman at a craft show

who was newlydiagnosed withbreast cancer.“We met her on aSaturday and shehad lust beendiagnosed onWednesday,”Wendy recalls.“She was newlydivorced, and hadjust moved totown. She hadnobody to turnto. As we talked,the tearsftowed...we were both in tears bythe end of the conversation. Johnand I have thought a lot about herin the days since.”

These days, the Paustians haveplenty of things to think about.They are preparing to move toColumbia, Missouri. Though heraddress will change, her dedicationto making and selling ornamentsfor St. Luke’s will stay constant. “Icouldn’t stop now,” she said.“Every time I sell an ornament Ithink to myself, maybe this is theornament that will make the differ-ence...this little extra money willfund the piece of research that willlead to a cure. That makes everysale a thrill.”

Wendy Paustian sees the fightagainst breast cancer as a battlefought with spirit as well as medicineand machinery. “These ornamentsmay not be very big, but I thinkthey can make a big difference.”

“People like to get a gift andremember where it comes from,”she added. “They know that thisone comes from the heart.”

WilliamsGamma Knife Endowment continues a history ofinvolvement begun prior to 1965, when Jim found timeduring his busy days at Grede Foundries to serve on St.Luke’s Board of Directors. The involvement of Carol’sfather, Arthur L. Grede, reaches far back into the 1940s.He, along with other community leaders, had a strongimpetus in the growth of the hospital at its present 29th

& Oklahoma site.

“When I was a child, I remember thinking there wasn’tany other hospital in town,” said Carol. “My fatherwas so dedicated. He definitely inspired us to getinvolved, as he had many others. “ The commitment ofthe Grede family to St. Luke’s Medical Center isdemonstrated through their giving, resulting in thenaming of the Grede Boardroom at the hospital.

The James T. and Carol G. Williams Gamma Knife Endowment

is one of the newest of St. Luke’s Named Endowments.

Establishing a Named Endowment is an ideal way to create a

truly enduring legacy, and to express your lasting concern for the

health and welfare of our community.

The original gift within an endowed fund remains intact forever.

Only the interest earned from investments on the gift is used.

This makes it certain that the fund will continue to benefit St.

Luke’s for many decades to come.

A Named Endowment can be established to honor the donor, or

the memory of a beloved parent, friend or family member.

Proceeds can he earmarked for a specific purpose (as in theWilliams endowment) or directed to the area of greatest need. Agift of $25,000 or more—as an individual gift or a three- to five-year pledge—establishes a named endowment.

Jim and Carol Williams’ dedication is expressed in theform of the Williams named endowment, which is cur-renfly engaged in funding St. Luke’s new Gamma KnifeCenter. The Gamma Knife’s high-tech capability offerssurgeons the opportunity to perform delicate brain surgenes without a single scalpel cut. “This is really goingto be big for the future,” Jim said. “It’s now in itsinfancy, but it’s a thing that has to be done. “ Caroladds, “We had a close friend who died of brain cancer.He might have been saved if we would have had theGamma Knife then.”

The need to advance medical science is an imperativethat Jim Williams learned firsthand, as a member of St.Luke’s board during the days the hospital was a pioneerin heart surgery. “Now I see that if you don’t do it, it

won’t get done,” Jim said. “I think of the years westopped activity with heart transplantation because wethought it was an ‘iffy’ operation. I’ve come to see thatyou need to press onward, and I’m glad the endowment

helps us to be a part of that.”

There are many benefits for the donor:. Tax deductibility, plus other

advantages depending on yourfinancial circumstances

. The opportunity to channel ongoingfunds to an area of special concern

. Prominent recognition, including a plaque recognizing thenamed fund, in St. Luke’s distinguished recognition area

. Freedom to add to your endowment at any time or to

celebrate special occasions. Complete flexibility in financial arrangements: an endowment

may be established with cash or property, during life or

through an estate, or in a life income plan which providesa steady source of personal income during the donor’s lifetime

Board membership is still a priority activity for Jim,who currently serves on the board of the AuroraFoundation. Carol typically accompanies Jim to meetings,partly for the pleasure of seeing old friends.

Involvement seems to be a continuing tradition in theWilliams family. Upon reflection, they are pleased withthe rewards of life in a tradition of service. “It’s been agreat way to invest our time and effort,” said Carol,“and it is particularly satisfying to know that the tradition will continue to benefit future generations.” c1

A rw DISTINCTION FOR LEADERSHIP GiVING

INTRODUCING THE HArioviR SocwTy

T

he wor1d-c1as medical careof today’s St. Luke’sMedical Center is a

product of yesterday’s lead-ers and their willingnessto give more of them-selves. This same spirit ofgiving and growth is behindthe new Hanover Society ofSt. Luke’s Medical Center — aspecial distinction established tohonor leadership giving to St. Luke’s.“It’s an organization of excellence,”states Laverne Schmidt, philanthropymanager. “The Hanover Society isfor hospital friends who believe inmaintaining our tradition of excel-lence, and who are willing to leadin giving toward that goal.”

It all began in 1903, when Dr.William F. Malone added a privatehospital and medical office to thelarge, castle-like residence on thecorner of Madison and Hanover(now South 3rd) Streets inMilwaukee. Named HanoverGeneral Hospital, the 15-bed facilitybecame the predecessor to the present-day St. Luke’s Medical Center. At acritical point in Hanover General’shistory, a group of local businessmentook out personal liens to keep thetroubled hospital afloat andrenamed it St. Luke’s. “That is thespirit our society wishes to capture,”says Laverne. “They cared enoughabout the quality of health care fortheir families that they were willingto go above and beyond.” TheHanover Society seeks to rekindletheir spirit in the present generation.“With all of today’s opportunities toadvance the art and science of medicine, we need the Hanover spirit morenow than ever before,” she adds.

Membership in the HanoverSociety begins with a $5,000 gift

to the hospital, and is main-tamed with an annual giftof $1,000 or more. “Theongoing giving at a lead-ership level is the true

distinction,” says Laverne.“There are so many friends of

the hospital who believe stronglyin funding the innovative researchand advanced technology for whichwe are known.”

For Brad Holmes, vice president forphilanthropy, the Hanover Societymeets a critical need. “Sometimesit’s easy to forget the important rolephilanthropy plays in supportingthe outstanding quality of care weoffer at St. Luke’s,” he states.“Donor gifts through the yearshave made this hospital what it istoday, and are critical to maintainingthe standard of excellence we’rerecognized for the world over. Inessence, we’re asking today’sphilanthropists to honor theirpredecessors by starting a givingtradition of their own.”

In this new century of discovery, the

Hanover Society strives to providean opportunity for leadership givingto help meet the challenges of thefuture . . . today.

INAUGURAL FOUNUNG MEMBERS

UroRGEImimE EVENT BRiNGS A MEMORABLE GIFT

Manypeople give

a gift to St.Luke’s as a

remembrance. Far rarer isthe motivation of KenStoll, who gives because ofsomething he forgot.

Ken’s story begins on abalmy summer afternoonin 199$, while he and hiswife, Dorothy, wereentertaining a fewfriends. “I remember Iwas sitting on our patio,and I had a headache,”Ken recalled. “The nextthing I knew two weekshad gone by, and I was lying in an intensive care unit.Two weeks gone . . . just like that.”

“THEY WERE THERE WHEN OUR NEED

WAS THE GREATEST . . . IT’S THE

LEAST WE CAN DO TO DO THE SAME.”

The time-robber was a stroke, which kept Iten at St.Luke’s Medical Center for six weeks of treatment andtherapy. “For a while I didn’t know who I was orwhere I lived. I couldn’t even remember how to add,”said the retired salesman who once specialized in tech-nically complex construction machinery. “I’ll never for-get what happened one day,” recalled Dorothy. “Kenturned to me and said, ‘It’s amazing how much thisfacility looks like St. Luke’s.’ For some reason, hethought he was in Kansas City!”

Today, Ken is fully recovered and thoroughly thankful.This thankfulness is the reason Ken and Dorothy gavethe gift that made them inaugural Founding Membersof the new Hanover Society (for details on the HanoverSociety, see story on page 14). While they obviously

appreciated the excellenthealth care Ken received,they were equallyimpressed with the per-sonal and emotional sup-port Dorothy receivedduring the 1 ‘/2-month hospital stay. “People were sonice to me during a verytough time,” Dorothyrecalled. “Especially thenurses, and the people inrehab. We still stop infrom time to time, just tosay hi. They were justsuch nice people.”

An unexpected impulsemotivated Dorothy Stoll to stop by the philanthropydepartment’s hallway one day and inquire about thepossibility of giving a gift to St. Luke’s. As a result ofthat impulse and after speaking with Kelly Sachse,Regional Manager of Planned Giving, Dorothy and Kenincluded St. Luke’s in their will and now are also members of the Lifetime Philanthropists. “Kelly was veryhelpful, but we didn’t need too much of her expertise,”said Ken. “Tax issues aren’t our primary concern.”

The Stolls were more concerned about the need to con-tinue the high-quality care they received. “There’s reallya need for our support,” Dorothy said, and Ken added,“the hospital can’t do the job without our help. Theycan’t keep providing better and better care with thesame budget, unless somebody helps.”

For this reason, Ken and Dorothy earmarked theirHanover Society gift to go toward any area of greatestneed. “They were there when our need was the greatest,”Iten said. “It’s the least we can do to do the same. “

Ken and Dorothy Stoll, inaugural Founding Members ofSt. Luke’s Hanover Society. celebrated their 50th weddinganniversary in 2000.

STAFF PROFILE

KiM SwEET IS CONNECTED 10 GIVINGhen it comes to matters connected to giving,

\X:1Itim Sweet is in very familiar territory.

Kim, one of the newestadditions to the staff atSt. Luke’s PhilanthropyDepartment, has spenther entire professionalcareer working forcharitable organizations. She comes toher new job from aposition at The JesuitPartnership, where shestarted as a summerworker in high school.

The Jesuits aren’t the only source of Kim’s experience insacrificial giving. She is learning self-sacrifice firsthandthrough her experience as a single parent to seven-year-old daughter Dominique. “She is the apple of my eye,”said the doting mom, who displays her daughter’s pictureprominently near the computer screen where she spendsher day updating the names, addresses and financialinformation connected with gifts to St. Luke’s. “She’s inthe advanced reading group in her 3rd grade class,” sheadds, proudly.

Dominique’s future was one of the big reasons Kimchose to start a new lob at Aurora in September 2000.“I wasn’t growing enough in my old job, and withAurora I have a future.” she said. Eventually, she hopes

to afford a home of her own, in a neighborhood withplenty of room for Dominique to play outdoors.

In the meantime, Kim is discovering the pleasures of her

new position. One of the biggest, she says, is workingwith the Stuffer Duffers, a group of volunteers whohelp fold, collate and stuff envelopes whenever a mailing

needs to get out. The group’s welcoming, upbeat attitudegive a real lift to Kim’s day. “They are so nice and theyhave worked on so many mailings that they are able togive me a lot of help. It’s great,” she said, “to work withsuch a friendly group. I can’t wait until our next mailing.”

One of the most gratifying aspects of Kim’s job is open-ing the returned envelopes and tallying the donationspeople send. “I didn’t realize how important giving isto people,” Kim said. “Donors will write us little notesalong with their gifts saying, ‘this is all I can give . .

I wish I could give more.’ It’s great to work at a placepeople care so deeply about. “

RECEIVE INCOME FOR LIFE!

Back in 1993, Rose and her husband, grateful forthe care he received from St. Luke’s, established a$5,000 charitable gift annuity with St. Luke’s.

They were thrilled that the guaranteed gift annuityincome they would receive for life was so much higherthan the income from their certificate of deposit. Andthey got a charitable income tax deduction, too!

Now it’s 2001, and both Rose and her husband havepassed away. But their generous gift continues to benefitthe patients at St. Luke’s through the Greatest NeedEndowment Fund. Amazingly, their $5,000 gift grewover time to almost $6,200! And this was after theannuity made quarterly payments to them for seven years.

GwiG COMES EASY . . . ONE STITCH Al A TIME

Ia sense, you could say that Patricia Roth has had

72 children—and he is hoping to have many more.Possibly as many as one a week. It all depends in

part, she says, upon what’s on television.

Pat’s “children” are the newborn infants at St. Luke’sMedical Center who receive the infant hats, mittens,booties, sweaters, blankets and burp pads she sewsfrom soft, warm knit fabrics. Keeping newborns warmin the first days of life motivates her to spend much ofher spare time with a needle and thread. Thus far, Pat’sefforts have yielded 36 tiny tasseled stocking caps, adozen booties and two dozen sets of mittens (one dozenpink, the other blue).

In Pat’s view, there is nothing better than an evening ofsewing, accompanied by a gripping suspense drama onTV. The degree of dramatic tension, she says, dictates therate of stitching. “When ‘Third Watch’ is on,” she says,“you should see me go...these hands are really flying!”

Needlecrafts have been a part of life for Pat and her sisterBarb (who share a house on Milwaukee’s south side)since they were children themselves. “When we werelittle, our mom got us started on embroidery,” Barbrecalled. “I still can’t embroider, but we both do justabout everything else when it comes to sewing.”

“WHEN ‘THIRD WATCH’ IS ON, YOU

SHOULD SEE ME GO . . . THESE HANDS

ARE REALLY FLYING!”

Memories of a mother and dad are one motivator forPat to contribute her handiwork to St. Luke’s. “Wepractically lived at St. Luke’s with my mother’s cancer,”said Pat, who helped her mother through a four-yearfight with the disease. Their father was also a patient atSt. Luke’s. “It became a home away from home for us,”Barb agreed.

Pat’s greatest motivator is her love for children, and thewillingness to “adopt” an ever-extending family of kidsin the absence of a family of her own. “My head knowsthat the babies at St. Luke’s aren’t mine,” she said, “butI guess my heart hasn’t quite figured that out yet. “

M&I’s BLui JEAN DAY

CASUAL DRESS BENEFITS A SERIOUS CAUSEhere is no evidence that blue jeans cause cancer.In at least one Milwaukee company, the denimgarments are even doing their bit to help cure

the disease.

If you visit the northwest Milwaukee offices of theCheck Adjustment Department of M&I SupportServices on any Friday, you’ll see jeans galore. It’s BlueJean Friday, and the normally business-dressed staff isallowed to dress down in exchange for a 5O donationto the Blue Jean Fund. Part of the money raised by the55-member department is given to support the VinceLombardi Cancer Clinic at St. Luke’s Medical Center.

The idea was born as Check Adjustment ManagerBarb Peters sat in the hairdresser’s chair. She heard thewoman in the next chair describe a similar program ata different company, which required a 25 donation tothe office coffee fund. “I thought that was a good idea,but we could go it one better, “ Peters said. “ Giving to acharity was a tradition in our office, so we just put twoand two together.”

Last year the department raised $650 in its denim drive.They are hoping to be able to do more in 2001. “It’ssuch a good cause,” said M&I employee Lori Harris.“Cancer touches so many lives. Everybody knowssomebody, so everybody is willing to help.” c/

C’GIVING TO A CHARITY WAS A

In the weeks since, Blue Jean Friday has become amuch-anticipated part of life in Check Adjustment.“That’s especially true when the Friday is a payday,”said department member Sue Koboski. “It’s a little bitof fund raising and a little bit of fun,” she noted.

The connection to Vince Lombardi was made by adepartment staffer, whose mother was treated for cancerat the clinic. “She was very impressed by how theytreated her there, so we thought it would be a goodplace to support,” added department staff memberPhyllis Roeber.

Barb Peters, check adjustment manager at M&I SupportServices, launched Blue Jean Friday at her work group.

“I owe a lot to the people at St.Luke’s,” said Jay, a sixtyish formerRacine schoolteacher who retiredto live the life of a farmer inNebraska City, Nebraska. “Withoutthe help I received there, I couldhave had a heart attack and beendead. I think every day about howfortunate I am.”

Many people would consider activities like pitching manure, fixingoutbuildings and cutting brush asless than lucky breaks, but Jay isn’tone of them. He has dreamed foryears of returning to Nebraska,where he spent happy childhoodsummers on his uncle’s farm. Heand his wife Helen have spent thepast two years living the dreamafter retiring from their Racine jobs.For many years, Helen served asRacine County’s Register of Deeds.

Jay attributes his present ability tospade earth and wield a chainsaw toa series of events now fourteenyears in the past. An EKG test doneas part of a routine medical check-up revealed serious coronary arteryblockage. His doctor suggested

surgery as soon as possible. “I wasvery surprised,” he recalled. “I hadalways considered myself to be ingood shape, and I’d always beenphysically active. I learned firsthandthat heart disease can happen toanyone, not just to those who areoverweight and out of shape.”

Jay’s doctor immediately scheduledopen-heart surgery at St. Luke’s forthe soonest possible day. “I rememberthe date well, because it was June6th, D-Day,” he recalled, referringto the anniversary of the WorldWar II battle. Although the day wasauspicious, the Soleys entered St.Luke’s with confidence. “We werevery pleased that the surgery wasbeing done at a hospital with St.Luke’s reputation,” he said. “Theirlong history of success definitelyreassured us.”

Jay and Helen were still celebratingthe operation’s success when theyreceived a request from the St. Luke’sphilanthropy office, asking them toconsider a charitable gift to thehospital. “I immediately thoughtgiving a donation would be a goodidea,” said Jay. “I really didn’tknow how to thank them enough.”

In each year since, Jay has continued the thankful gesture. “I don’tthink a year has gone by withoutmaking a contribution. Every year Ilook for the letter from St. Luke’s,”he said.

There has been plenty to be thankfulfor in the years since, as Jay hasenjoyed excellent cardiac and all-around health. Things have been sostable that Helen has felt free to do

a bit of globetrotting. She recentlyspent a month in Albania, helpingthe former Soviet bloc country setup a western-style register of deedssystem. “She loves it, “ her husbandvolunteered. “It really feels great tobe able to use your experience tohelp people who really need

SPECIAL LETTER

A GRATEFUL DAUGHTER

It’s been almost a year since the last Philanthropy DessertGala. I would like to take a few minutes to share with yousome wonderFul things that have happened since then as aresult of being at last year’s Gala.

My husband was unable to get away from work last yearfor the event, so I asked my father to accompany me thatevening. This was my first time at the annual Gala and Iwas not sure what to expert. I never dreamed how thingswould change for my father as a result of being there that night.

We entered the room and I didn’t recognize anyone. We didn’t know where tosit. We saw a couple of empty chairs a few tables away from where we werestanding. We asked if anyone was sitting in the empty seats, and we sat down.We met some lovely people at our table. Johanna and her daughter started aconversation with us.

As we talked withJohanna, we discovered that she had lost her husband about10 years ago. My father choked up with tears in his eyes, as he told of mymother passing away 3 years prior. Johanna could see the hurt and pain thatmy father still felt and asked him if he had ever gone to a widowers’ supportgroup. My father told her no he didn’t think he could talk about it to a bunchof strangers. After much encouragement from Johanna, by the end of the nightmy father and I were going to meet her at the next widowers’ support dinner.

Weeks later, Dad and I metJohanna at the dinner. There, my Dad met a manwho had facilitated a widowers’ support group at St. Luke’s. He called Dad andgot him into a group. My father’s friend, Bill, had recently lost his wife also.Dad invited Bill tojoin him. These group sessions helped both Bill and Dad.I have seen some joy return to Dad and a little less pain. Most of all, I thinkhope has returned. This doesn’t mean he doesn’t still miss Mom, but now I cansee a sense of purpose again.

Today, my Dad and Bill attend the support group every month and Dad stillgoes tojohanna’s monthly group dinner, also

I just thought you might be interested to hear how one Dessert Gala can

influence one’s life. By the way, Dad has decided to become a member of the

St. Luke’s Philanthropists Club, also. Ijust want to thank God for working out

the circumstances and to thank you for having the Dessert Gala where hope

was renewed.

Thanks sincerely,Deb Wencka

JASON LA ViuWhen you picture the stereotypical philanthropist, afellow like Jason La ‘Slake doesn’t usually come to mind.

Mornings won’t find him cruising to the office in a bigblack limousine. A big white city bus does the trick for

Jason, who commutes daily from his south side hometo a job as a dietary assistant in the St. Luke’s MedicalCenter cafeteria. Business attire is a hairnet and apronrather than a tailored suit.

Despite outward appearances, Jason embodies philanthropy in the truest sense of the word. He is a regulardonor to St. Luke’s through the hospital’s EmployeePhilanthropy Club, and gives in a spirit that would do aCarnegie or Rockefeller proud. “I feel like I’m helpingpeople,” he said, musing over a chocolate milk during awork break. “I think it’s a good cause,” he said, nodding.

Jason also shares another motivation common to manyphilanthropists: a desire to keep a good thing going aslong as possible. “I like my job,” he said. “I want tostay here a long time.”

Will a grand marble statue be erected in honor of JasonLa Vake? Probably not. His monument is a living spiritof caring and giving—one which shines as solidly andimpressively as if it were chiseled in stone.

The measure ofa life,

after all, is not its

duration, but its

donation.

“I want people to know I’m a caring and friendly person.”said Jason. In that goal, he is a success in every way.

Dietary assistant Jason La Vake belongs to the St. LukesEmployee Philanthropy Club.

The four-year designation was recently awarded to thehospitals within Aurora Health Care’s Metro Region:St. Luke’s Medical Center, St. Luke’s South Shore, SinaiSamaritan Medical Center, West Allis MemorialHospital and Hartford Memorial Hospital. The MetroRegion group is the first system of hospitals in thecountry ever to earn Magnet recognition. Since 1993,the honor has been granted to only 21 other individualacute-care hospitals in the U.S.

To be recognized as a magnet hospital, applicants mustmeet specific criteria that represent excellence in allaspects of nursing services. Magnet status indicates thatAurora nurses continuously improve their skills andthat the organization fosters their professional growthand development. The extensive application processincluded on-site visits by Magnet appraisers wholooked carefully at patient outcomes, involvement ofthe nursing staff in decision-making, nurses’ sensitivityto the cultural and ethnic diversity of patients and families, and nursing management philosophy and practices.
