On a spring morning in May 2013, Dick and Ruth Foth's life changed forever. While gathered with longtime friends in Estes Park, Colorado, Ruth suddenly collapsed from cardiac arrest. With no pulse and minutes to act, a chain of miracles unfolded—beginning with a rookie officer's CPR and culminating in Ruth's full recovery, with no brain damage.Twelve years later, Dick sits on the porch with Ruth to reflect on that extraordinary day, the people who intervened, the power of prayer, and the deep gratitude that has marked every day since.This is a story of crisis, community, faith—and grace that goes beyond explanation.⏱️ Episode Highlights + Timecodes00:00–00:32 – Setting the scene: birds, trains, and a morning full of memory00:46–02:08 – Ruth collapses mid-conversation after reciting a poem02:08–04:14 – First responders arrive and perform CPR; Ruth is shocked three times04:49–05:13 – Airlift to Loveland; doctors offer a grim prognosis05:20–06:07 – Friends around the world begin to pray; candles light up online06:22–08:13 – A doctor prays over Ruth—and hours later, she wakes up08:24–09:18 – Ruth beats the odds: survival, recovery, and full cognition09:25–11:19 – One year later: apple pie thank-you tour to responders11:19–12:20 – A police captain asks Dick to pray for his team13:00–16:11 – Ruth reflects: family, friends, and Andre Crouch's “My Tribute”16:14–17:43 – Final thoughts on life, love, and laughter

Story at-a-glance Survival rates for cardiac arrest victims go down by 10% with each minute of delay Only 42% of bystanders perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in public settings despite over 350,000 Americans experiencing out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA) annually Hands-only CPR (100 to 120 compressions per minute, 2 inches deep) is recommended for untrained bystanders, while health care workers should use the 30-to-2 compression-to-breath ratio Immediate actions during cardiac arrest include calling emergency services, locating an automated external defibrillator if available, and beginning CPR promptly without hesitation Heart attacks (arterial blockages affecting blood flow) differ from cardiac arrest (electrical problem causing arrhythmia), though heart attacks sometimes lead to cardiac arrest

Have any of you watched the movie “The Notebook”?  At the end, one of the characters, who has dementia, experiences an episode of lucidity.  When I watched it, between tears (I'm a complete softie) I remember thinking, “Oh no! This will give people false hope!  That their loved one is ‘in there.' If only they could find the right key to unlock the lock and let them out.” Today we talk about lucid episodes and what they might mean to the person with dementia, their family and loved ones, to philosophers, to clinicians, to neuroscientists. Our guests are Andrea Gilmore-Bykovskyi, a nurse researcher, and Andrew Peterson, a philosopher. We had a wide ranging discussion that touched on (among many things): A consensus definition developed at an NIH conference, organized by the recently retired NIA program officer Basil Eldadah (we will miss you Basil!). Andrew complicates this definition, stating is raises more questions than answers. Hospice nurses know that terminal lucidity “is a thing” and have pretty much all  seen it Family and caregiver stories of lucid episodes and what they meant to them, including early glimpses into a study Andrea is doing using video to capture episodes and show them to family. Potential for experiences to elicit “false hope”, misunderstanding/misinterpreting, and changing say code status from DNR to full code (rare but happens). Sam Parnia's work on brain activity during CPR and near death episodes Ethical issues these lucid episodes raise  Should clinicians treat people with dementia as always lucid? Having some level of awareness?  Parallels between how we treat people with advanced dementia, who may or may not be lucid, and how we treat AI, who may or may not be conscious, or experiencing paradoxical lucidity on their way to full consciousness.  I try to say please and thank you to the AI I interact with other than Alexa, who is obviously way behind. The Age of Aging podcast episode on lucidity, featuring Anne Bastings, Jason Karlawish, Elizabeth Donnarumma, and Justin Clapp Was Andrew's song choice, “I can see clearly now” better than Eric's suggestion “Silent Lucidity” by Queensryche?   Enjoy! -Alex Smith

State lawmakers have bid adieu to the Colorado State Capitol — for now. But lots of questions remain. For example, what's next for Colorado's controversial artificial intelligence law? What about federal spending cuts? Will state lawmakers have to return to Denver before next January to absorb changes from Washington? And the big question: where is Governor Jared Polis on all of this?After so much Polis talk on Purplish this year, this is a chance to hear from the governor himself. Polis spoke with The Colorado Sun's Jesse Paul during the the Sun's 2025 Legislative Session Recap, a live event held at The University of Denver on May 15, 2025. This episode, hosted by CPR's Bente Birkeland, includes excerpts from that conversation, as well as a discussion about the hot issues of the session with Senate President James Coleman, a Democrat from Denver, and House Speaker Julie McCluskie, a Democrat from Dillon. They address the moments of tension between the legislature and governor this session, TABOR reform, the potential impacts of proposed federal Medicaid cuts and more.Purplish is produced by CPR News and the Capitol News Alliance, a collaboration between KUNC News, Colorado Public Radio, Rocky Mountain PBS, and The Colorado Sun, and shared with Rocky Mountain Community Radio and other news organizations across the state. Funding for the Alliance is provided in part by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.Purplish's producer is Stephanie Wolf. This episode was edited by Megan Verlee and sound designed and engineered by Shane Rumsey. Our theme music is by Brad Turner. Special thanks to The Colorado Sun for partnering on this episode and the technical crew at DU for recording it.

Dr. Ted Lee looks at the impact and importance of Save a Life Day for EMS Week. Featuring expert guests Dr. Matt Levy and Corey Richter, the discussion underscores the critical role of community engagement in prehospital emergency medicine.   Both leaders share their extensive backgrounds in EMS and emphasize the necessity of equipping citizens with essential skills to respond effectively in emergencies, such as performing CPR, managing bleeding and advocating for blood donation initiatives.   They highlight that by fostering a proactive culture of preparedness, communities can significantly improve health outcomes and save lives.

FDNY Deputy Chief Inspector Kingsley Eze, a civilian manager in the Bureau of Fire Prevention found a civilian employee in cardiac arrest in the basement parking garage of the Department's headquarters on August 1, 2024. After calling 9-1-1 he was directed to begin compressions-only CPR, activating the first two steps in the chain of survival. Once first responders arrived on scene, paramedics Alexis Gonzalez and Youssef Al Hammami of Station 31 treated, stabilized and transported the patient to the hospital. In this episode of the FDNY Pro Podcast, Captain Randy Li invites all three members to the studio to discuss how providing advanced care quickly and efficiently helped save a life.

What does “code status” really mean — and how does it affect the care we receive at the end of life? In this episode, Dr. Matthew Tyler returns to clarify common misunderstandings about CPR, DNR, and medical interventions during serious illness and the frailty of old age. We explore when full code makes sense, when it probably doesn't, and how patients and families can make informed, values-based decisions. We also discuss Dr. Tyler's new caregiver coaching services, through which he offers personalized support when palliative care isn't available locally. I think everyone should explore these issues and have someone like Dr Tyler on their team to talk things through!⁠https://howtotrainyourdoctor.com/⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/people/How-to-Train-Your-Doctor/100095193314200/?sk=reels_tab⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/howtotrainyourdoctor/⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@howtotrainyourdoctor⁠

Jiang Zhaopeng, an 18-year-old medical student, faced a life-or-death test on Saturday—not in an exam hall, but in the backseat of a car, where he performed life-saving CPR on a classmate who went into cardiac arrest.上周六，山东烟台18岁的医学生姜昭鹏经历了一场生死考验——在赴考途中，他在网约车后座为突发心脏骤停的同学实施心肺复苏。Jiang and his classmate were heading to take the spring college entrance exam when the emergency unfolded unexpectedly. Both attend Shandong City Service Technician College in Yantai, a coastal city in Shandong province.当意外的紧急情况发生时，姜和他的同学正准备参加春季高考。他们两人都在山东省沿海城市烟台的山东城市服务职业学院就读。At about 8:10 am, the two boarded a ride-hailing car bound for the testing site. Just a minute later, Jiang's classmate collapsed onto his lap, showing signs of a heart attack, seizure and cardiac arrest.上午8时10分，两人搭乘网约车前往考点。车辆启动仅一分钟后，姜昭鹏突然发现邻座同学倒在自己腿上，出现心脏骤停征兆。"I thought he was just tired at first," Jiang said. But then the classmate began gasping and convulsing, violently kicking the front seat before suddenly going limp. He soon stopped breathing.“起初我以为他只是太累了，”姜昭鹏回忆道。但随后该同学开始剧烈喘息抽搐，双腿猛踹前座后突然瘫软，他很快停止了自主呼吸。Drawing on first aid skills learned in school, Jiang quickly sprang into action. He laid his classmate flat and began performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation, alternating with rescue breathing.凭借在校学习的急救技能，姜立即展开施救，他把同学平放后开始交替进行心脏复苏和人工呼吸。"Go to the hospital," Jiang told the driver, Wang Tao.姜绍鹏告诉司机王涛(Wang Tao)改道去医院。Wang alerted the local traffic police and sped to the hospital, running six red lights and arriving in just seven minutes—half the usual time.司机王涛立即联系当地交警部门，在确保安全的前提下连闯六个红灯，仅用7分钟便将患者送达医院（常规车程需15分钟）。Only after ensuring his classmate was under professional care did Jiang notify school officials about the emergency situation. He then rushed to the exam site, but arrived too late to take the 9 am Chinese language test.在确保同学已获得专业医疗救治后，姜昭鹏才向校方报告紧急情况。随后他匆忙赶往考场，但错过了上午9点的语文考试。Doctors later confirmed that Jiang's classmate would recover without brain damage.院方后续确认，被救同学将完全康复且无脑损伤。"The first four minutes of CPR in the car were absolutely vital," said Yang Haiyan, head of the emergency department at the East Hospital of Yantaishan Hospital.“车内实施的心肺复苏术前四分钟至关重要，”烟台山医院东院区急诊科主任杨海燕表示。"The patient received 29 minutes of resuscitation in the hospital and eight defibrillations before his heartbeat stabilized at 8:50 am," Yang said.杨海燕说：“患者在医院接受了29分钟的心肺复苏和八次除颤，直至上午8点50分心跳才恢复稳定。”Though he missed the exam, Jiang said he has no regrets about his decision.尽管错过考试，姜昭鹏表示对自己的决定无怨无悔。"Exams can be retaken, but a life cannot," he said."考试可以重考，但生命不能重来。"他说。The story quickly went viral after it was shared online, drawing widespread praise from netizens.该事件在网上传开后迅速引发热议，收获网友广泛赞誉。"Without Jiang and the driver Wang, our child wouldn't have survived the 40-minute cardiac arrest," the survivor's parents wrote in the comment section of the video.“如果没有姜同学和司机王师傅，我们的孩子不可能在心脏停跳40分钟后生还，”获救者父母在视频评论区写道。Four days after the incident, education authorities arranged a make-up exam with a backup test paper for Jiang.事发四天后，教育部门为姜昭鹏安排了备用试卷的补考。"I'm so grateful for this make-up exam," he said.“我非常感激这次补考机会，”他表示。The spring college entrance exam is a crucial opportunity for vocational school students like Jiang to pursue higher education.春季高考对姜昭鹏这样的职校学生而言是升学的关键通道。Both Jiang and Wang have received official commendations from Yantai's local authorities and were honored as model individuals for their actions. They have also been recommended as candidates for the "China Good Person List" for the second quarter of 2025.目前，姜昭鹏与司机王涛已获烟台市政府通报表彰，被授予“模范个人”称号，并获推荐参评2025年第二季度“中国好人榜”。CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation)心肺复苏术; 心肺复苏seizure癫痫发作cardiac arrest心脏骤停first aid skills急救技能make-up exam补考

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast — we're looking deeper into schooling (you guys had so much good feedback last week). We talk about the possibility of starting an at-home daycare (s/o Maria), how we're thinking about community and curriculum, and what our long-term plan could look like if we decide to do school this way. But before that, we're recapping Mother's Day (spoiler alert: Harrison rated his efforts a 6.5/10 and I got food poisoning lol), debating whether you ACTUALLY need to fasten your seatbelt during turbulence, and breaking down the scary moment we had to use the CPR/choking class we took before Tate was born. We came across some wild things this week in Things We DMed Each Other… including a massive baby formula scandal from the '70s (??) and the ongoing conversation around the “decline” of alcohol (honestly, it feels like you can make data say whatever you want.)

Five years ago, my heart stopped. And this week's episode is about what it's been like to live with that anniversary hanging in the air. Kristin and I talk through how the week felt, what's changed in the five year, and what hasn't. We talk about the weird guilt of surviving, the unexpected joy of ordinary days, and how “the trauma anniversary” messes with your brain in ways even a cardiologist can't predict. No characters this week. No insurance rants. Just two people who went through something massive—and are still figuring out what to do with it. Lt Gregg shoe and Blog post https://glaucomflecken.com/lockdown-love-and-life-saving-cpr-a-mothers-day-to-remember/ Takeaways: The day feels weird—not sad, not happy, just… off. Kristin shares what it's like to carry the memory of doing CPR on your spouse. Will opens up about the strange weight of surviving something you don't remember. No code blue this time—but lots of reflection and some unexpected laughs. It's not about closure. It's about honoring the mess. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

The best podcast for military veterans, police officers, firefighters, and first responders preparing for veteran transition and life after service. Helping you plan and implement strategies to prepare for your transition into civilian life. In episode 195 of the Transition Drill Podcast, retired firefighter-paramedic Matthew Simkins shares the winding path that led him to a 33-year career serving the community of Manhattan Beach, California. Growing up in the South Bay with deep family ties to the region, Matthew's early life was marked by personal loss and uncertainty after the death of his father when he was just 14. Drifting through jobs and relationships, it wasn't until his late twenties that he found direction in the fire service. Starting as a reserve firefighter, Matt worked his way up, eventually becoming a certified paramedic and earning a full-time position with his hometown department. Throughout his career, he served in multiple capacities, from emergency medical services and hazardous materials response to technical rescue and industrial firefighting training. While the job brought pride, purpose, and lifelong relationships, it also took a significant toll on his body and mind. As his career came to a close during the COVID-19 pandemic, Matthew faced the emotional and physical challenges of transition. Letting go of his paramedic certification in 2022 marked the true end of his time in the field. Today, Matthew stays connected through teaching life support and CPR, offering lessons learned to help others navigate their own transitions from service to civilian life.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:IG: WEBSITE: LinkedIn: SIGN-UP FOR THE NEWSLETTER:QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:SPONSORS:Brothers & Arms USAGet 20% off your purchaseLink: https://brothersandarms.comPromo Code: Transition20Trident CoffeeGet 15% off your purchaseLink: https://tridentcoffee.comPromo Code: TDP15GRND CollectiveGet 15% off your purchaseLink: https://thegrndcollective.com/Promo Code: TRANSITION15Human Performance TRTGet 30% off your purchaseWeb: https://hptrt.com/Promo Code: TDP

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/W1usvKtssDoDay 8 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on May 2, 2025. The majority of the day revolved around the continued cross-examination of Jen McCabe by Alan Jackson. Her testimony is described as "incredibly difficult" and "evasive," with her struggling to answer direct questions. I break down what is and isn't a hostile witness since a lot of Law Nerds were wanting to know if it fits this situation.Group text message from Matt McCabe said, "Tell them the guy never came in the house," is highlighted, and Jen McCabe explains that "the guy" refers to John O'Keefe and that the "them" are the news reporters.McCabe is questioned about Google searches, particularly "hos long to die in cold," with discrepancies in her timeline and explanations. The 2:27 AM Google search time is also discussed, and McCabe claims she does not recall doing a search around that time.Jen McCabe was also caught calling her sister, Nicole Albert, the homeowner at 34 Fairview Rd, at 5:07am, after speaking over the phone with John O'Keefe's niece. The call log shows that they spoke for 38 seconds but Jen denies speaking to her. Questions arise about why Jen McCabe did not go inside Brian Albert Sr's house (a first responder with CPR training) for help when John O'Keefe was found, instead making phone calls to her sister, Nicole Albert, after calling 911. Jackson even questioned why she didn't go in the house after finding a John O'Keefe on the lawn because her sister, Nicole, could have been in perils danger and wasn't answering the phone according to Jen. You must check out this episode to this to hear her explanations of this, butt dials, and all of the other discrepancies in her testimony.The Re-Direct Examination, conducted by Special Prosecutor Brennan, focused on humanizing Jen McCabe and addressing claims of collusion among witnesses. In Re-Cross Examination where Alan Jackson brought up the issue of the suspended interview with federal agents. Lastly, testimony of Hannah Knowles from the Massachusetts State Police Crime Laboratory, regarding Karen Read's blood alcohol content (BAC), included the conversion from blood serum and retrograde extrapolation. Cross Examination of this witness will continue on Day 9.RESOURCESWhat You Need to Know About the Retrial - https://youtu.be/89Jpa8vz1RQ Karen Read Retrial Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKOJlfL__9F027hlETVU-vo Karen Read Trial - 2024 - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKUeCUzApgsEuQRXu5IXeTSThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacy

Lawmakers got behind a bill this session that would have required social media companies like Snapchat, Facebook and Instagram to do more about illegal activity on their platforms. It was a significant policy change, and it seemed poised for success, passing the legislature with broad bipartisan support in both chambers. But then the bill hit the governor's desk, where Polis, concerned about its potential impacts on privacy and free speech, pulled out his veto stamp.What happened next was a rare -- and somewhat surprising -- showdown between two branches of government, and a window into the complex politics that surround the power of the veto.CPR's Bente Birkeland and The Colorado Sun's Jesse Paul examine how it all went down and what this moment could mean looking ahead, as Colorado's Democratic majority at the statehouse appears to be increasingly willing to challenge Polis during his waning time in office.Purplish is produced by CPR News and the Capitol News Alliance, a collaboration between KUNC News, Colorado Public Radio, Rocky Mountain PBS, and The Colorado Sun, and shared with Rocky Mountain Community Radio and other news organizations across the state.

Southern California Judge Shoots Wife, Calls Work To Let Them Know 'He Won't Be In' A Southern California judge was convicted Tuesday of second-degree murder for fatally shooting his wife during a domestic argument while the couple watched television in their Anaheim Hills home. Orange County Superior Court Judge Jeffrey Ferguson, 74, was found guilty in the 2023 killing of his wife, Sheryl Ferguson, 65. The jury also convicted him of a felony gun enhancement, and he now faces up to 40 years to life in prison when he is sentenced on June 13. The verdict came after just one day of deliberations. Ferguson, who had taken the stand in his own defense, admitted to the shooting but claimed it was accidental. After the decision was announced, he was allowed a brief embrace with his son before being handcuffed and taken into custody. Ferguson's attorney, Cameron Talley, said the defense would appeal the conviction. “I respect the jury's verdict,” Talley said. “At the same time, we all know that juries don't always get it right. I still believe in Jeff.” The case shook Orange County's legal community, where Ferguson had worked for decades—first as a prosecutor, then as a judge beginning in 2015. The trial was moved to Los Angeles Superior Court to avoid a conflict of interest, with Judge Eleanor J. Hunter presiding. A previous jury was unable to reach a verdict in March, resulting in a mistrial. “There are no winners here,” Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer said during a post-verdict press conference. “Justice was achieved, but I'm very sad for the Ferguson family.” According to prosecutors, the fatal shooting occurred on August 3, 2023, following an argument about finances that began at dinner and escalated at home while the couple was watching the TV show Breaking Bad with their adult son. They said Ferguson, who had been drinking, made a gun gesture at his wife during dinner. At home, she reportedly challenged him to use a real gun—and he did. Ferguson claimed he was removing the weapon from his ankle holster to put it away when it accidentally discharged. Immediately after the shooting, both Ferguson and his son called 911. Ferguson also sent a text to his court staff that read: “I just lost it. I just shot my wife. I won't be in tomorrow. I will be in custody. I'm so sorry.” His son, Phillip, testified that he wrestled the gun from his father and attempted CPR on his mother. Bodycam footage showed Ferguson crying and telling officers that he had killed his wife, and that everyone, including his son, would hate him. He repeatedly asked to be convicted by a jury. Authorities later found 47 firearms and over 26,000 rounds of ammunition in the Ferguson home. Prosecutors emphasized the judge's extensive firearms training, arguing that the shooting could not have been an accident. “This was not an accident,” DA Spitzer said in a statement. “Ferguson was trained to never point a gun at anything he didn't intend to destroy.” Ferguson, who had been free on $2 million bail, had not presided over cases since his arrest, in accordance with California's constitution, which prohibits judges facing felony charges from hearing matters in court.

Whether it's tariffs, immigration, or the self-proclaimed Department of Government Efficiency, President Donald Trump's first 100 days in office have been a whirlwind. Two lawmakers from different parties and different Capitols share their perspectives: Congressman Joe Neguse, a Democrat, and State Senator Barbara Kirkmeyer, a Republican. They joined CPR's Bente Birkeland and Caitlyn Kim for a live edition of Purplish recorded in front of an audience at the Buell Public Media Center in Denver. 

From tariffs to immigration, the Department of Government Efficiency, and an avalanche of executive actions and policies, President Donald Trump's first 100 days have been a whirlwind.In a special episode of Purplish, recorded before a live audience at the Buell Public Media Center in Denver, two lawmakers — from different parties, different chambers and different capitols — share their perspectives and insights on this moment in American politics. CPR's Bente Birkeland and CPR's Caitlyn Kim interview U.S. Democratic Rep. Joe Neguse, who represents Colorado's 2nd Congressional District, and Republican state Sen. Barbara Kirkmeyer, whose seat is in Weld and Larimer counties. They dive into the many ripple effects of Trump's first 100 days on Colorado, covering topics like federal funding cuts, trade policy, state's rights, Trump's immigration crackdown, and, of course, the country's rapidly evolving political climate.Purplish is produced by CPR News and the Capitol News Alliance, a collaboration between KUNC News, Colorado Public Radio, Rocky Mountain PBS, and The Colorado Sun, and shared with Rocky Mountain Community Radio and other news organizations across the state. Funding for the Alliance is provided in part by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.Purplish's producer is Stephanie Wolf.

More and more people are, “doing their own research.”  Self-identified experts and influencers on podcasts (podcasts!) and social media endorse treatments that are potentially harmful and have little to no evidence of benefit, or have only been studied in animals.  An increasing number of federal leaders have a track record of endorsing such products. We and our guests have noticed that in our clinical practices, patients and caregivers seem to be asking for such treatments more frequently.  Ivermectin to treat cancer.  Stem cell treatments. Chelation therapy.  Daneila Lamas wrote about this issue in the New York Times this week -after we recorded - in her story, a family requested an herbal infusion for their dying mother via feeding tube. Our guests today, Adam Marks, Laura Taylor, & Jill Schneiderhan, have coined a term for such therapies, for Potentially Unsafe Low-evidence Treatments, or PULET. Rhymes with mullet (On the podcast we debate using the French pronunciation, though it sounds the same as the French word for chicken).  We discuss an article they wrote about PULET for the American Journal of Hospice and Palliative Medicine, including: What makes a PULET a PULET?  Key ingredients are both potentially unsafe and low evidence.  If it's low evidence but not unsafe, not generally an issue.  Think vitamins. If it's potentially unsafe, but has robust evidence, well that's most of the treatments we offer seriously ill patients!  Think chemo. What counts as potentially unsafe? They include what might be obvious, e.g. health risks, and less obvious, e.g. financial toxicity. What counts as low-evidence?  Animal studies? Theoretical only? Does PULET account for avoiding known effective treatments? Do elements of care that are often administered to seriously ill patients count? Yes. Think chemotherapy to imminently dying patients, or CPR. How does integrative medicine fit in with this?  Jill Schneiderhan, a family medicine and integrative medicine doc, helps us think through this. How ought clinicians respond?  Hint: If you're arguing over the scientific merits of a research study, you're probably not doing it right.  Instead, think VitalTalk, REMAP, and uncover and align with the emotion behind the request. Does the approach shift when it's a caregiver requesting PULET for an older relative who lost capacity? How about parents advocating for a child? For more, Laura suggests a book titled, How to Talk to a Science Denier.   And I am particularly happy that the idea for this podcast arose from my visit to Michigan to give Grand Rounds, and the conversations I had with Adam and Laura during the visit.  We love it when listeners engage with us to suggest topics that practicing clinicians find challenging. And I get to sing Bon Jovi's Bad Medicine, which is such a fun song! -Alex Smith

Rav Chaim Kaniyevsky Z"l asked in his Sefer Ta'amah Dikra, if Hashem wanted to punish the Egyptians measure for measure, drowning them because they drowned the Jewish babies, why do He have to bring them all the way to the Yom Suf to do it? Why couldn't He just bring a tsunami upon them right where they were in Egypt? The Rabbi answered, Hashem wanted to show us that when bringing punishment upon a sinner, Hashem doesn't need to bring the punishment to him. Rather, He can make the sinner himself go to the punishment. Rabbi Menashe Reizman explained, this was an additional lesson in Hashem's hashgacha peratit, namely, that a person is in the complete control of Hashem. Even when it looked like the Egyptians were chasing the Jews of their own free will, it was Hashem pushing them to bring them to their punishment. The Ramban writes, of all the wonders that Hashem performed in Mitzrayim, this was the greatest wonder of all. The fact that Pharaoh and the Mitzriym saw an open miracle with their own eyes of Hashem splitting the sea for the Jews, and yet they still went in to chase them. This was to show that Hashem is in charge of every footstep that man takes. It may look like that we're moving on our own, but in actuality, Hashem is leading us. A man told me that his wife Ruth is currently studying to become an eye doctor. She had an assignment in school to bring in a family member for an eye exam. Most people bring in their spouse for this, but her husband wasn't available that day. So she asked one of her nieces, Gila, if she could come instead. Gila happily agreed and made the long trip there that day. The exam was going well until the very end when Ruth found something suspicious going on in Gila's eye. Her supervisor suspected that it was a retinal hole, so they did some imaging. That would mean she would have to be seen by a specialist in the next couple of weeks. Ruth then went with Gila for lunch. The supervisor called them back, saying she just received more results from the imaging and it turned out to be much more serious. It was a retinal tear which, heaven forbid, could lead to blindness. Gila had no symptoms as she was seeing perfectly. There was no way she was going to find out about this before it may have been too late. They were able to get her an appointment for surgery the very next day and baruch Hashem, she's fine now. Gila had no idea how much danger she was in. Hashem guided her footsteps to get that eye examination and save her eyesight. A father recently made a seudat hoda'ah, thanking Hashem for saving his two-year-old daughter who had fallen into a pool. The father said it happened so quickly. In a split second, she was in the water. By the time he pulled her out, she wasn't breathing. He ran into the house in a panic, crying for someone to call hatzalah. But help had already begun to arrive in a most unexpected way. A man was driving by in a golf cart and saw what was happening and quickly sprang into action. Like Eliyahu Hanavi, he started CPR on the little girl right away and within 90 seconds, the stranger had revived her. She was stabilized and then airlifted to a nearby hospital and remarkably, she was discharged the very next day. Every second matters when it comes to life and death. Hashem guided that man's footsteps to be right there at the time he was needed. Although things may seem to happen in a natural way, Hashem is pulling the strings from behind the scenes all the time.

244: This week, I'm joined by Lindsey Meehleis, a certified midwife, doula, lactation consultant, EMT, CPR instructor, and neonatal resuscitation provider. Lindsey brings a truly holistic approach to birth, and our conversation dives deep into the importance of honoring the natural physiology of labor. As someone on my own fertility journey, I asked all the questions I've been curious about — from how to find a midwife to what real support during birth looks like. We explore the over-medicalization of birth in the Western world, how to prepare for a more empowered and informed birthing experience, and why individualized care matters so much. Lindsey's wisdom and passion for supporting women through this rite of passage is incredibly inspiring — I left this conversation wanting her by my side when I give birth someday. Topics Discussed: What is the difference between a midwife and a doula? How can I prepare for a natural birth in a medicalized world? Are epidurals and Pitocin necessary for every labor? What are the risks of relying on baby formula over breastfeeding? How to find a trustworthy midwife or doula?
