VAS,
Stephen (1926-2006)
A Pioneer In Peritoneal Dialysis, Professor Of Microbiology And
Medicine University Of Toronto
Stephen was born on June 4, 1926, as the second child after his
sister Veronika, in Budapest. His father was the shopkeeper and
owner of a hardware store in central Budapest. After receiving
his High School diploma from the Fasor Gymnasium in the Spring
of 1944, he was taken right away into a Nazi labour camp in the
southeast part of Hungary. Subsequent to the liberation of Romania,
Stephen escaped the camp and fled to Bucharest. He originally
planned to study physics, yet when the Hungarian University in
Cluj (Kolozsvár) opened, he started studying medicine as this
was the only discipline offered. After the war finished in Hungary,
Stephen returned to Budapest in 1945 and continued his studies
there. He received his M.D. in 1950. As a young doctor, Stephen
worked in various hospitals and public health research institutes.
He also spent three years in the military as an immunologist,
and focused on epidemic control and microbiology. Stephen married
Dr. Magdalena
RADITZ in 1954. In 1956 he received his 'Candidacy'
(PhD). The same year, Stephen and Magdalena fled Hungary to Vienna,
where Stephen received a Rockefeller Scholarship to go to Montreal.
Three years later, he started teaching at McGill medicine and
microbiology. Five years before leaving Montreal, Stephen became
the chairman of the Department of Microbiology and Immunology
at McGill. In 1977, Magdalena and Stephen moved to Toronto, where
he became Chief of Microbiology and Magdalena joined the hematology
department of the Toronto Western Hospital. Stephen
VAS when
he moved from Montreal to Toronto to become our Microbiologist-in-Chief,
he helped us immensely in the diagnosis of treatment of peritonitis
in patients on Chronic Peritoneal Dialysis and he applied his
vast knowledge of microbiology and infectious diseases to the
care of his patients. He was one of the first to study the inflammatory
response of the peritoneal cavity and he went around the world
lecturing on the principles of treatment of the infectious complications
of peritoneal dialysis. Until the end of his life, he was available
and gave his opinion freely about these difficult problems to
people who called from around the world. He cared deeply for
his patients who literally adored him, especially the women,
who felt so comfortable with his compassionate care. After his
retirement, he was happy looking after peritoneal dialysis patients
who were totally attached to him. He was always available to
the nurses day or night, whenever they needed his advice. Unfortunately
five years ago, Magdalena died and Stephen became quite depressed,
although he never let his feelings show during our daily interactions.
However, at the end his loneliness became quite strong, and the
attraction of his family and his roots were so strong that he
decided to return to Budapest. He was excited by the fact that
not only the physicians and nurses there but even the Government
officials held him in great respect. He supported with all his
strength the Nephrology department of Saint Margit Hospital in
Budapest. He was deeply involved in teaching, something that
he always enjoyed. Stephen died on the 14th of October 2006.

Crash kills two: Single-vehicle accident may have occurred hours
before wreckage found
By Sharon WEATHERALL,
Monday,
April 17, 2006
Craigleith - Speed and alcohol contributed to a fatal collision
which killed two Toronto teenagers on the Easter weekend, police
say.
The wrecked car with two bodies was found early Saturday morning
near Craigleith on Highway 26 near what police called "a bad
corner."
Dead are Mykata
VASLYNKO, 18, and his passenger Natalie
HINCU,
Speed and alcohol were both contributing factors in the fatal
collision, Collingwood Ontario Provincial Police said in a news
release Sunday.
The single motor vehicle accident happened just west of Craigleith
Provincial Park. The scene was discovered by a local resident
as he pulled off the road onto the shoulder to turn into his
driveway at about 7 a.m. He called for help and Collingwood Ontario
Provincial Police and Georgian Ambulance responded.
The exact time of the accident is unknown, but sons of the man
who called police told their mother they heard a huge crash at
about 11 p.m. the night before during a thunder and lightning
storm.
Believing the noise was thunder, they did not investigate.
Constable Mark
KINNEY of the Huronia West Ontario Provincial
Police said police were still investigating.
The 1997 black Ford Probe skidded an estimated 200 metres before
going into the ditch on the north side of the road where it hit
a tree. The resulting crash sent pieces of the car a few hundred
feet. The tree broke in half.
Police crews were still at the scene at 1 p.m. Sunday and Highway 26
was closed between Craigleith park and Grey Road 40 for several
hours.
