Sharing our stories helps more people process and understand their experiences. Today's episode features another resilient guest using her difficult journey to help others. Join us to hear Talia's story. Talia Nepper is the proud mom of two young children and a passionate artist whose creative journey has been vital to her healing. While she works as a web developer to support her family, her art, advocacy, and mental health journey define her true passions. Her motherhood journey has been shaped by her experiences with postpartum depression, anxiety, OCD, and rage. These challenges led her to discover the transformative power of art therapy, trauma therapy, and support through local postpartum groups, family, and friends. Talia has become an outspoken advocate for mental health, with a particular focus on breaking the stigma around postpartum struggles. Recently, Talia embraced her identity within the LGBTQ+ community, further expanding her sense of self. Navigating her divorce is a process that continues to deepen her journey of self-discovery and healing. She is the author of Unveiling Motherhood: Poems of Postpartum Resilience, a collection of poetry and artwork that reflects her raw and honest experiences with pregnancy, birth, and the often-overlooked realities of postpartum life. Through her body of work, Talia hopes to offer support, solidarity, and empowerment to others facing similar struggles. Show Highlights: Talia's story of her first pregnancy with Liam (now 5), which was unexpected but very wanted Anxiety plagued her throughout the pregnancy because of her autoimmune issues, her initial doctor's negative outlook, and pressure to have a natural birth. At 42 weeks, she FINALLY was in labor at a birthing center with a midwife. As problems popped up, she was transported to a hospital, and the issues began to mount. Finally, her son was born via C-section at 10.5 lbs. and 23 in. long!

Dr. Paul Marik is a pulmonary and critical care specialist and a founding member of the Independent Medical Alliance, formerly known as the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance.“Our healthcare system is completely and utterly broken. From the top to the bottom, it's a broken, dysfunctional system,” says Marik. “If you do an experiment, it should be reproducible. And I think that's the most important qualifier of good science; the results are reproducible, because then, it's likely to be true.”Best known for his revolutionary, lifesaving protocol for Sepsis and for being the second most published critical care physician in the world, Marik is now focusing his efforts on the treatment and prevention of cancer.“Intermittent fasting, in which the body was designed to eat for a while and then to starve for a while, is not a difficult concept. The human body wasn't designed to snack and eat all the time, which is what people seem to do. And that has serious metabolic consequences, with high insulin levels and insulin resistance,” says Dr. Marik. “Vitamin D is effective in preventing cancer, but it's also very effective in the treatment of cancer.”Views expressed in this video are those of the host and the guest and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

La sepsis es una complicación grave que ocurre cuando el cuerpo responde de forma descontrolada a una infección, provocando daños en órganos y tejidos. Puede desarrollarse a partir de infecciones comunes como neumonía, infecciones urinarias o de piel, y es potencialmente mortal si no se detecta a tiempo. Los síntomas más frecuentes incluyen fiebre alta, escalofríos, confusión, dificultad para respirar y presión arterial baja. El diagnóstico temprano y el tratamiento oportuno son fundamentales para reducir complicaciones y salvar vidas. Consultar con un especialista ante cualquier signo de alarma es clave para prevenir consecuencias graves y garantizar una atención adecuada.La Dra.

Dr. Centor discusses the evidence that implementation of the SEP-1 Bundle is associated with favorable outcomes for patients with sepsis with Drs. James Ford and Gabriel Wardi.
Welcome to my classroom! Bladder infections in geriatric patients can lead to sepsis due to weakened immune systems, anatomical changes, and decreased antibody production, allowing bacteria to spread rapidly from urinary tract to bloodstream. In this short podcast, listen in on part of the reason as to why urinary tract infections can lead to sepsis in the older patient thus becoming deadly.
For this episode we are joined by EBM guru, Dr. Brian Locke, who deftly breaks down all of our statistics questions. Is half dose DOAC as good as full dose DOAC for preventing VTE, and does it reduce bleeding risk? Can procalcitonin reduce duration of antibiotics for infections without compromising mortality rates? Can LLMs like GPT-4 help physicians manage patients better? Can reinforcement learning models predict when to start vasopressin in patients with septic shock? What is the risk of resuming anticoagulation in patients with atrial fibrillation and prior intracerebral hemorrhage? Is high flow nasal cannula as good as non-invasive ventilation for different types of respiratory failure? We answer all these questions and more!Half Dose DOAC for Long Term VTE Prevention (RENOVE)Biomarker-Guided Antibiotic Duration (ADAPT-Sepsis)GPT-4 Assistance for Physician PerformanceOptimal Vasopressin Initiation for Septic Shock (OVISS)DOACs for A fib after ICH (PRESTIGE-AF)High Flow Nasal Cannula vs NIV for Respiratory Failure (RENOVATE)Music from Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/soundroll/dope License code: NP8HLP5WKGKXFW2R

Dr. Michael New of the Charlotte Lozier Institute Michael New's Articles at National Review The Charlotte Lozier Institute The post A Claim by ProPublica that Pro-Life Laws in Texas Increase Sepsis Cases – Dr. Michael New, 2/28/25 (0591) first appeared on Issues, Etc..
In the years since the Supreme Court overturned the right to abortion and since Texas instituted one of the country’s strictest abortion bans, the state has seen an increased rate of sepsis among women who lost their pregnancies in the second trimester. That’s according to a new investigation by ProPublica. Stephanie Sy discussed more with Lizzie Presser, a health reporter at ProPublica. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders
Consumer confidence had the biggest drop since August 2021, due mostly to concerns about the president’s proposed tariffs and high prices on staples like eggs. Sepsis cases in pregnant women have spiked roughly 50% since Texas’ abortion ban took effect in 2021, according to ProPublica’s new analysis. Sepsis is a life-threatening infection, often seen in the elderly and those with prolonged hospital stays. Jennifer Finney Boylan wrote an acclaimed memoir in 2003 about changing from a man to a woman. She’s back with a new book about life before, and after, her transition. Bulgar wheat has a fantastic chew, minimal cooking time, and multiple nutrients. It’s a staple in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, and a great addition to any leafy salad or grain bowl.

Infectious disease specialist Dr. Peter Bornstein has treated countless patients with sepsis. Despite his expertise, Peter found himself battling this condition as a patient, sharing how he ignored the early symptoms until they escalated rapidly. Peter talks openly about the lessons he learned about navigating healthcare as both a doctor and patient. Key Takeaways: Sepsis is serious. Early signs include shaking chills, rapid heart rate, and lightheadedness. Don't hesitate to seek urgent care. Your medical history matters. Even minor procedures weeks prior can be critical to diagnosis. UTIs require attention. Symptoms like pain or frequent urination shouldn't be ignored, especially for men. Advocate for yourself. If antibiotics don't work within 3–4 days, ask for an infectious disease consultation.

Get Magic Mind's “24-hour bundle” for 45% off using my link! https://www.magicmind.com/LAINEJAN Last week, I started telling you the story of eight-year-old Raylee Browning, who died in the home of her father, his girlfriend, and the woman's sister after years of unthinkable abuse. Raylee's death was infuriatingly preventable if only CPS and the family court judge hadn't ignored countless abuse complaints from Raylee's mom and school staff.In this episode, we'll go over the results of Raylee's autopsy and the shocking number of medications she was prescribed. I'll talk about how and why Marty Browning Jr., Julie Titchenell, and Sherie Titchenell put just Raylee, one of four kids in the home, through years of abuse and neglect. I'll go through the shocking statements one of Julie's children made to a counselor, cementing the three adults' criminal charges. Finally, I'll also discuss proposed legislation that would protect many homeschooled kids from abuse and why, almost four years after its proposal, it still hasn't been passed by the West Virginia State Senate.This is part two of the harrowing story of Raylee Browning.Links discussed in this episode:The Coalition for Responsible Home Education (CRHE): https://responsiblehomeschooling.org Homeschooling's Invisible Children summary of 2024 findings: https://www.hsinvisiblechildren.org/findings/ Photos related to today's episode can be viewed on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpod You can also follow the podcast on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@STLCpodMy Linktree is available here: https://linktr.ee/stlcpod Visit the podcast's web page at https://www.sufferthelittlechildrenpod.com.
