Robin Williams' SuicideAug 16, 2015
I saw this subject down near the bottom of the board and wanted to say that I saw a report where he had Lewy body dementia also and is very difficult to treat. Poor guy. Probably knew something was happening to him, but hallucinations, etc., aren't uncommon. Sounds very bad. "The report indicates that [Williams] was being treated for Parkinson's and that is one of the features of dementia with Lewy bodies," said Taylor. "Hallucinations are a core feature of Lewy body dementi ...

Ever Have Twitches For No Apparent Reason?Sep 05, 2013
I started doing that several years ago, my fingers twitch and I have twitches in my legs and eyelids, too.  Told my doctor about it several years ago and asked him about MS, he said it sounded more like ALS (scared the crap out of me) but he wasn't concerned about it and I'm fine I just twitch a lot. ...

What About Iraq War Veterans Committing Suicide??? May 29, 2012
I just watched a TV documentary about new war veterans coming back from Iraq.  They say that every day at least 28 veterans are committing suicide.  This is truly shocking news.  I am wondering if their statistics are really accurate.  They say that only 33% are approved to receive PTSD benefits.  There is not enough money in their budget to approve all the claims.  I used to transcribe Veteran's health care reports and know that there are many mental heal ...

Father Completed Suicide This WeekApr 20, 2014
She seems to be fine but I can't be sure how she is really doing, you know? She was the one who found him in their bed with the gun in his hand.  I cannot imagine.  She won't really leave home that much because she says she feels closer to him there.  One positive note is that she plans on going back to work Tuesday.  We have removed the other gun from her home just in case she gets sad or thinks about joining him but the police have the original gun, not sure if sh ...

More Trouble For Brian Williams?Feb 13, 2015
Tonight on TV they showed an old clip where Brian Williams was responding to a question, in which he was asked about his most memorable times in his career. He quickly recalled the time when he was present for and witnessed the collapse of the Berlin Wall. However, now it seems that never really happened. They said he may have been there approximately 12 hours after the actual event. NBC says he is on a 6-month leave without pay, but I think we have seen the last of him. ...

Military Suicides: "Most Of Those Committing SuicideJan 15, 2013
On All Things Considered, NPR's Pentagon correspondent Tom Bowman tells co-host Audie Cornish that the figures represent "active duty and reserve ... the largest portion were the active duty Army; 182 took their own lives in 2012." Tom says the military's suicide problem is a complex one. "Most of those committing suicide are young men, 18-24," he says, who are worried that asking for help will undermine their career. While some of the deaths can be linked to the stresses of bei ...

Juan Williams FIRED: NPR Sacks Analyst Over Fox News Muslim CommentsOct 22, 2010
I feel like NPR should have reprimanded him but not fire him. Juan was arguing with O'Reilly, not supporting his views. NPR announced late on Wednesday night that it has terminated the contract of longtime analyst Juan Williams over his comments on Fox News that, when he is on a plane with Muslims, "I get nervous." NPR's media reporter David Folkenflik broke the news on Twitter. Williams' comments came during a discussion with Bill O'Reilly on Monday's "O'Re ...

The Day The Music DiedJul 09, 2017
A stunning – and stunningly disturbing - event took place this past weekend. But unless you were scouring the news very carefully, chances are you didn't even hear of it. The annual Bravalla Festival, one of the most popular summer music concerts in Sweden, was abruptly canceled. There will be no festival next year. Or ever. Given that tens of thousands of tickets were sold, the problem was not attendance. Nor was there any difficulty booking big-name rap and rock stars. No, ...
