Commentary: For doctors and patients, the Holy Grail of medicine would be a simple blood or saliva test to detect all types of cancer before symptoms or sickness appears.

I heard an incredible lecture last year about presence as a virtue (and even duty) of physicians and I’ve since tried to emulate the wonderful, attentive care I’ve received when I’ve been a patient in need myself

EMERGENCY FLOOD ALERT:
The National Weather Service is forecasting the Fox River in Waukesha to rise to approximately 10.8 Feet by the evening.
That is about 2 Feet higher than the record in 2008 at 8.8 Feet.
This is a completely unprecedented and record breaking flood.
If you know someone who’s lost a loved one maybe check in on them a few weeks or even months later
It’s not one of the Kubler-Ross stages but I see a lot of loneliness creep in for the bereaved as the grass grows over the grave and the world moves ever on
This teen from Sioux Falls, South Dakota found himself in trouble after he was caught for graffitiing city property. But unexpected support from the city’s mayor empowered the teen to continue doing art and will now help other artists express themselves, legally. @DavidBegnaud reports.
I love this story about what the mayor of Sioux Falls South Dakota @paultenhaken did when he heard that an 17-year-old constituent of his broke the law.

My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.
