Heidi Bond was desperate. No matter how much she cajoled or threatened her daughter, the 9-year-old refused to finish their workout.
Used to this struggle, Bond pushed harder, encouraging Breanna to complete the four-mile loop. She had already lost weight, Bond reminded her. She couldn’t give up now, or her hard work would be for nothing.
Breanna ignored her mother and turned for home.

B.E. Thompson’s weight had climbed to 540 pounds. Physically, the 43 year old required two scales to be weighed. But as a public figure, his obesity carried a much greater burden. But in 2008, B.E. was delivered the ultimate blow, one that would change his life forever.

Deep brain stimulation offers hope for patients with essential tremors, but the surgeons must be guided by the patient himself. For Roger Frisch, that meant playing the violin while having brain surgery.

With the chill in the air in many parts of the country and the threat of blizzards brewing, that long awaited trip to the islands couldn’t come at a better time.
And as with any vacationer traveling to a hot climate, the No. 1 item on your packing list is sunscreen. However, according to a new study published in Genetics, that SPF 40 may not completely protect you from the repercussions of the sun’s dangerous rays. Turns out, your genes may put you at greater risk for skin cancer than UV exposure.

A woman who had the world’s first successful womb transplant is set to undergo IVF in a bid to fulfil her dream of motherhood.
Thousands of British women born without a womb will be given hope if the breakthrough treatment succeeds. Speaking in London last week, her surgeon Professor Omer Ozkan revealed that the married housewife has responded so well to treatment that his medical team is confident the first ‘donor womb’ pregnancy is now possible.

The way food is cooked may be one key to understanding aging and disease.
Chemicals called advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) are garnering more attention from scientists intent on finding ways to reverse the diabetes epidemic. AGEs occur in low amounts naturally in the body, but they also come from food.
The most popular methods of cooking today — grilling, baking, and frying — release more AGEs, and AGEs lead to more inflammation, disease, and aging. According to studies, reduce the amount of AGEs in your food can improve insulin resistance in type 2 diabetics in just a few months.

The Pessah family has something particularly special to be thankful for this year. Their son, 21-year-old Benjamin Pessah from Burlingame, Calif., awoke from a month-long coma just in time to eat a Thanksgiving meal with his family after being shot in the head last month.
According to the New York Daily News, Pessah was walking home with his girlfriend and two other friends from a Halloween party in San Francisco on October 28 when a man — Hun Saelee — allegedly approached the group and touched Pessah’s girlfriend inappropriately.
