p.s. I especially found intriguing the suggestion in that 2011 NYTimes piece about how they helped some stroke victims recover. Just emphasizes again how little medicine really understands and as always, your best bet as a patient is to have excellent doctors who have as many tools as possible available to them.

Which would be fine, but i don't see any concurring academic opinions in decades.

A Wisconsin morning news anchor and former college basketball player died suddenly Saturday at age 27 in an apparent suicide.

News of WAOW anchor Neena Pacholke’s death left her family and colleagues stunned, and she was remembered for her contagious smile and happy-go-lucky demeanor.
