Cancer Is An Oncologists Problem - (USA)
In: Health & Fitness 9Aug2009 by Rita GoldmanMany oncologists are doctors who treat cancer knowing that patients should be evaluated for fatigue when undergoing their treatment. Fatigue often means that patients have to give up many activities that could be considered normal, because they are too tired to function. There is an argument that you should be discussing your levels of fatigue with your oncologists. They should be providing the initial screening, because they can give the basic educ

Excess & Deprivation - (USA)
In this fairly blessed culture, one's greatest enemy is often ourselves. It's generally something tied to excess of something we like, deprivation of something we need, or both. I've used this poem as a tool to help others help themselves. It's ideal for people with serious addictions, but nearly everyone has some trap they keep falling into. Read this carefully: Autobiography In Five Short Chapters by Portia Nelson Chapter 1 I walk down the street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I

DE: Cops Fish Mental Health Records - (USA)
In a good piece of investigative reporting, the Delaware News Journal has uncovered the fact that state police there routinely access databases intended only to be used at the time of a firearm purchase. Even for that, its being abused. Read the whole thing here. Its a bit too involved for any short quotes I might put up here to do it justice but note this: The FTAP program was created by lawmakers, and funded by taxpayers, to aid licensed gun dealers, but The News Journal found that more th

Demand Up For Mental Health Care - (USA)
Demand Up For Mental Health Care During tough economic times and the added stress of the holidays people start to exhibit more signs of mental health issues as stress starts to wear away their defenses. Drinking and drugs become more of a problem especially when low cost mental health care is unavailable. They come in for counseling related to a DUI, but it turns out the alcohol was meant to kill the depression of a lost job, a lost house, a lost spouse or maybe all three. They ask f

SMW Single Women, Single Payer Petition - (USA)
Dear Congress and Senate, I urge you to co-sponsor H.R. 676, the Medicare For All Bill introduced by Rep. John Conyers. Our health care system is broken. We spend over $2.3 trillion, or $7,500 per capita, for healthcare in the US, yet 42% of people under 65 have inadequate or no insurance coverage. At least 18,000 of them die unnecessarily each year as a result. Every other industrialized country in the world makes sure its population has access to basic healthcare. The United States is
