One of today's medical headlines emphasizes the need to be happy in order to be healthy:

Hope Plays Role in Stroke Risk

If you're sad and discouraged about your health problems, create the courage to tell someone you trust. Reach for the help you need. Even if you believe you'd win an Oscar just for trying.

If you know someone who needs to feel hopeful again, do whatever you can to heal their breaking heart.

And be sure to read a book that some medical and mental health professionals use in their practices. Readers worldwide are benefiting from

Beautiful Brains

I'm home from the hospital, recovering from a serious diagnosis unrelated to the once-suspect metal plates and screws. They ultimately did not need to be removed.

I'll explain the latest developments in a future message.

While I'm preparing that forthcoming blog post, I'll simply share this goodie about the beauty of the human brain. View it, appreciate your unique potential in the universe, and treat other people with compassion: MINDBOGGLING.

Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

Neurological, National Council of Negro Women to Reduce Childhood Overweight, and Breast Cancer News Roundup

29 Kislev 5768

I usually post mid-week, but WHEW, holiday season is apparently not the time for taking breaks in the world of medical developments. Here are some awesome snippets of information I gleaned from the many press releases I’ve received this past week. They're just too good to save until Monday or Tuesday:

1. Free, accurate information on many neurological disorders is now available on a new Spanish language website from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH): http://espanol.ninds.nih.gov/. Learn about stroke, dementia, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, autism, and many other neurological disorders at that URL. The publications can be downloaded or ordered free of charge. The website also provides information on clinical studies, links to non-profit organizations that offer information and assistance on neurological disorders, and a contact form where people can submit questions on topics related to health and biomedical research.

2. Michigan rehabilitation center improves lives of brain injury survivors: http://www.origamirehab.org/education/pyramid_strat_n_definitions.html

While we’re on the topic of brain injury, I hope you’ll hang up your cell phone FOREVER: STUDY: Regular cellphone use increases tumor risk...

3. Holiday Assistance for families dealing with pediatric brain tumor!

4. Officials from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) announced a collaboration with the National Council of Negro Women (NCNW) to help African American children maintain a healthy weight. As part of this collaboration, NCNW members around the U.S. will offer a fun, fast-paced training program for parents, and one for children, developed by the National Institutes of Health. The programs are based on NIH's successful "We Can!" or "Ways to Enhance Children's Activity & Nutrition," a science-based national education program to help children ages 8-13 stay at a healthy weight. For more information, visit http://wecan.nhlbi.nih.gov/ or call toll-free (in the USA) 866-35-WE CAN (866-359-3226)







5. Weight gain hurts breast cancer survival

While we’re on the breast cancer topic, see

'Cool' Israeli technology freezes lumps and tumors
Israeli start-up Arbel Medical had developed a new technology that may be able to remove breast lumps and tumors with cryotherapy, a method of surgery that uses extreme cold to kill diseased tissue. The therapy, IceSense, can be used with local anesthetic alone, and promises not only to significantly reduce treatment and recuperation time for the patient, but also leave no scars. Clinical trials of the new device begin in Israel at the end of this year, and are planned for the US in spring next year. Read on...
