"It's important to clarify that most patients will experience and at least some side effects—and often several. So prevention really means reducing severity, complications, and long-term impact rather than avoiding side effects altogether. This process starts before radiation begins and continues throughout the treatment and includes dental evaluation, baseline swallowing assessments, and thorough patient education," ONS member Astrid Amoresano, RN, OCN®, lead oncology nurse specialist at New York Proton Center in New York, NY, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about side effects of radiation for head and neck cancer.

Highlights From This Episode "Many tumors in the region are very radiosensitive, and radiation can be used either as definitive treatment or after surgery to reduce the risk of reoccurrence, but in many cases, radiation is combined with chemotherapy to improve local control. Because so many vital structures are located in this small complex area, radiation allows us to treat the cancer while minimizing the need for extensive or disfiguring surgery." TS 2:40 "The most common acute side effects of head and neck radiation: effects to the mouth, the throat, the skin, and the energy level. Patients often experience a mucositis, pain or sore throat, difficulty swallowing, dry mouth, or thick saliva, and taste changes. Skin irritation and redness in the treatment field is also common and can progress to dry and moist desquamation. Fatigue is another frequent side effect and tends to build as treatment progresses. Emotional and psychological distress are also very common in this patient population and can have an impact on daily function and quality of life. Side effects usually develop gradually, often beginning in the second and third week of radiation and may be more severe or have an earlier onset in patients receiving concurrent chemotherapy." TS 4:02 "Pain management is essential so patients can continue eating and drinking. Supporting the energy level and maintaining hydration are also key, as fatigue and dehydration can significantly worsen other side effects. Oral care protocols help manage mucositis and nutrition support may include supplements or enteral feeding if needed." TS 11:24 "Sexual health might not be the first thing nurses think of in regard to head and neck radiation. … But even though radiation for head and neck cancer doesn't involve the reproductive organs, it can still have a significant impact on sexual health and intimacy. Like fatigue, pain, dry mouth, changes in speech and visible changes in appearance can all affect body image and relationships." TS 14:52 "One of the common misconceptions is that side effects end when radiation ends. In reality, some effects peak afterward or become long term. Xerostomia, or dry mouth, and taste changes are good examples. While some patients improve, others adjust to a new normal where dry mouth and altered taste are permanent." TS 19:53

Pelvic pain, bladder symptoms, and sexual health concerns are incredibly common in people with Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes, yet they're often misunderstood, dismissed, or treated in isolation. In this episode of Bendy Bodies, Dr. Linda Bluestein is joined by Dr. Rachel Rubin, a board-certified urologist and nationally recognized leader in sexual medicine, to unpack why connective tissue disorders, mast cell activation, dysautonomia, and hormonal shifts so often collide in the pelvis. Together, they explore why bladder symptoms can occur without infection, why pelvic floor therapy alone may not be enough, and how hormones influence tissue health, inflammation, and pain. The conversation dives into underrecognized drivers of symptoms, like vestibular pain, nerve involvement, mast cell activity, and hormonal suppression from birth control, while also addressing why many patients are left searching for answers for years. Dr. Rubin explains why sexual health is inseparable from overall health and how multidisciplinary, patient-centered care can dramatically improve quality of life. For anyone living with a connective tissue disorder who has been told “everything looks normal” despite ongoing pelvic or bladder symptoms, this episode offers clarity, validation, and a new framework for understanding what may actually be happening. Takeaways: Pelvic and bladder symptoms in EDS are rarely caused by just one issue, they often involve hormones, nerves, mast cells, and musculoskeletal factors together. Pain with tampons, sex, or sitting is not normal, even if exams and tests appear normal. Hormonal changes and suppression can significantly affect pelvic tissue health, contributing to pain and urinary symptoms. Pelvic floor therapy helps many patients, but not all, especially when underlying tissue or hormonal issues go unaddressed. Sexual health is a quality-of-life issue, not a luxury, and deserves serious medical attention in hypermobility care. Find the episode transcript here. Want more Dr. Rachel Rubin?

In this episode of The Birth Lounge, HeHe sits down with couples therapist and relationship coach Jonathan Van Viegen to unpack something that shows up in almost every partnership at some point: emotional dysregulation. Together, they break down what dysregulation actually means, not as a label or a flaw, but as what happens when emotions come out sideways instead of being expressed in healthy, connecting ways. Jonathan shares insights from his upcoming book, including what he's learned from working with couples in high-stress, high-conflict seasons, while also reminding listeners that regulation, repair, and connection deserve just as much attention as the hard moments. The conversation explores how expectations, self-awareness, and reflection shape the way we show up for our partners, especially during seasons like financial stress, career pressure, pregnancy, and parenting. They talk openly about communication breakdowns, rebuilding physical intimacy, and why support and curiosity matter more than “getting it right.” You'll also hear Jonathan's practical, no-fluff tools for improving communication, reconnecting emotionally and physically, and navigating hard conversations without spiraling into blame or shutdown. Yes, they even go there on the topic of scheduled sex and why it can actually support intimacy instead of killing it. This episode is a reminder that strong relationships aren't built by avoiding conflict, they're built by learning how to come back to each other with honesty, regulation, and care. Guest Bio: Jonathan Van Viegen is a couples therapist, relationship coach, and author of an upcoming book to be found in stores in 2026. With over 10,000 hours helping couples rebuild trust, intimacy, and emotional connection, he's known for his no-fluff, solution-focused approach that actually gets results.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the Utilitarian philosopher, Jeremy Bentham's work, Offenses Against Oneself, a posthumously published part of his Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation. Here we examine the range of other perceived sexual offenses Bentham discusses and evaluates, all of which involve the feature "that they consist in procuring certain sensations by means of an improper object." Bentham considers five types: "1. Of the proper species but at an improper time: for instance, after death. 2. Of an object of the proper species and sex, and at a proper time, but in an improper part. 3. Of an object of the proper species but the wrong sex. 4. Of a wrong species. 5. In procuring this sensation by one's self without the help of any other sensitive object." Of all of these, oddly enough but consistent with some of the medical opinions of his time, he considers the last one, i.e. masturbation, to be the most pernicious.

From the start, the Epstein investigation was engineered to produce narrow results. Narrow charges do not emerge naturally when evidence points to a sprawling criminal enterprise fueled by money, access, and institutional protection. The focus on Epstein alone was a deliberate choice designed to avoid following the financial infrastructure that made his crimes possible. The released emails and documents show awareness, coordination, and active containment, not ignorance. Sexual abuse was treated as the whole story because it could be isolated, while financial crimes would have exposed banks, intermediaries, and elite beneficiaries. Every dollar Epstein moved should have been treated as evidence of enterprise-level criminality, yet that scrutiny was avoided. RICO was never used because it would have forced prosecutors to acknowledge pattern, facilitation, and mutual benefit. That would have dragged the financial sector into the light, and that outcome was unacceptable to those in power. This was not incompetence or oversight. It was a controlled, scoped-down operation from the beginning.When Epstein became a liability who might talk, the narrow investigation became untenable, but his removal did not erase the evidence. Financial records, emails, and transaction histories still exist and still point to beneficiaries who profited while keeping their hands “clean.” The unanswered questions are all financial: who received money, who structured the vehicles, who vouched for him, and who chose profit over accountability. The contrast with cases like Martha Stewart exposes the hypocrisy of enforcement priorities, where market disruption is punished but elite stability is protected. Figures like Leon Black and Les Wexner exemplify how proximity to power insulates culpability through delay and fragmentation. The investigation was tilted long before Epstein's death, designed to deliver a villain without a reckoning. Survivors were denied full accountability, and the public was given closure without truth. Until the financial architecture that enabled Epstein is confronted, justice has not begun—it has been deliberately postponed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

On Today's Show: Dennis explores the complexities of male sexuality and the consequences of giving in to one's natural drives. He discusses the "not good choices" men can make, including living from woman to woman, visiting prostitutes, and marrying with a mistress. Dennis argues that these choices may provide temporary excitement but ultimately lead to a life of superficiality and lack of personal growth. Want to own the full Men's Sexual Nature on CD?

En este episodio de Tertulia Dura, conversamos con Oom Blanco sobre las dinámicas reales que sostienen o destruyen la atracción sexual dentro de una relación de pareja.Hablamos de por qué la atracción no se va sola con el tiempo, sino que se erosiona por actitudes, hábitos y decisiones que muchas veces se normalizan. Cuestionamos ideas muy repetidas como que los opuestos se atraen o que el amor adulto es incondicional, y planteamos una conversación más directa: las relaciones funcionan cuando existen valores compartidos, expectativas claras y acuerdos que se cumplen.También abordamos la frustración que existe hoy en el mundo de las citas, por qué muchas mujeres sienten que los hombres no quieren compromiso y por qué las personas que han trabajado en sí mismas, construido estabilidad y protegido su paz, no están dispuestas a ponerlo todo en juego a la ligera. No por falta de interés, sino por criterio.Este episodio expone cómo la atracción, el deseo y la compatibilidad no son temas secundarios, sino elementos centrales para que una relación se sostenga en el tiempo

Following on from last week's episode, Lauren and Trey pick up right where they left off; they pull back the curtain on why Lauren, a lifelong people-pleaser, is intentionally practicing standing in her ego rather than collapsing into a martyrdom apology.Trey reflects on the discomfort of watching his partner grow into a version of herself that doesn't immediately move to restore his comfort. He shares the internal dialogue he navigated while Lauren explored her agency, and how he manages the aftershocks of her development.Together, they unpack how Lauren's lateness triggered Trey's childhood wounds regarding his mother, proving that the emotional responses we feel in partnership often have less to do with our partner and everything to do with our primary caregivers.Drawing on the work of David Schnarch, they explore the "two-choice dilemma" and the power of the Third Domain; a space where partners can lay down their anxieties and feedback to observe them from a distance rather than being consumed by them.They close out the conversation with a reminder that while we choose our partners, we also choose their trauma and the rate at which they heal. Expect raw honesty, a few digs about boomer parents, and a deep dive into why developing the capacity to sit in discomfort is a relational superpower.If this conversation resonated, especially around setting boundaries or navigating childhood triggers, you don't have to do the work alone.

Today we are starting our series on Sexual Integrity. Pastor Mark navigates the delicate subject of sex with grace and truth, looking at biblical foundations and emphasizing that shame has no place. Scripture shows us that God created sex as a good gift for pleasure and reproduction, but God has also placed boundaries that are designed to protect and enhance this powerful gift. Sexual integrity is a defining characteristic of a relationship with God, and we will continue to explore this topic for the next four weeks.

Delight Your Marriage | Relationship Advice, Christianity, & Sexual Intimacy
The Deep Theology of Sexual Unity (With Some Fun!): Interview with Randy and Rozanne Frazee You're not just trying to survive another week. You're not just trying to get the kids fed, keep the peace, and hold your marriage together with duct tape and prayers. You're living inside a bigger story—whether you realize it or not. When you start seeing your marriage through God's storyline instead of just your stress and circumstances, something shifts. Not overnight. Not magically. But deeply. Steadily. For real. And that's exactly what Randy and Rozanne Frazee unpacked in today's episode. In this episode, you're getting a conversation that is both wildly profound and surprisingly fun. Because yes—you can talk about theology, the Trinity, the image of God, and sexual unity… and still laugh. And that's exactly what happens when you sit down with Randy and Rozanne. They've spent decades helping believers understand the Bible not as scattered verses—but as one cohesive story of God's love and pursuit. Randy has been a pastor for 38 years and had a personal mentoring relationship with Dallas Willard—so much so that Dallas asked him to rewrite Renovation of the Heart for students. And Randy and Rozanne are not just brilliant—they're the real deal. High school sweethearts, married 44 years (going on 45), four kids, and now five grandbabies in the mix. What makes this episode so special is this: They don't just talk about the Bible. They talk about how the Bible transforms marriage, unity, and yes… even your sex life. You Keep Reading the Bible Like a Reference Book… But It's Actually a Love Story You've probably been taught to read the Bible in pieces: a Proverb for wisdom a Psalm for comfort a verse for anxiety a passage when your marriage is hard And those are good. But if you only ever grab the Bible for a quick fix, you can miss the whole point: it's one grand love story—from Genesis to Revelation—about the lengths God will go to get you back. When you start seeing Scripture as one unfolding narrative, you stop reading it like a scattered collection of morals… and you start hearing it like a steady message: God is pursuing you. God is restoring you. God is rewriting what sin tried to destroy. And yes—this includes your marriage. You're Not Just Living a Life… You're Living a Story You live in what Randy and Rozanne call the "lower story": Lunches. Laundry. Bills. Hormones. Conversations you're avoiding. Tension you can't name. The ache of feeling alone, even though you're married. And it's real. But there's also an "upper story" happening at the same time: God's bigger plan, God's spiritual reality, God's redemptive work that you can't always see while you're in the middle of the mess. You see it clearly in Scripture: Job experiences devastating loss in his lower story… while an unseen spiritual battle is happening in the upper story. Joseph is betrayed, enslaved, and forgotten in his lower story… but God is positioning him in the upper story to preserve His people. That's why Joseph can say, "What you meant for evil, God meant for good." It doesn't mean the lower story didn't hurt. It means the pain wasn't the point. So ask yourself: What if the hard thing you're living through right now isn't proof you're failing… but proof God is working? God Created Marriage to Reflect His Image—and Sin Has Been Trying to Ruin It Ever Since You've heard the phrase "two become one." But you might not realize how sacred that actually is. Marriage wasn't just meant to be companionship. It was meant to reflect something divine: unity, love, covenant, oneness. In the beginning, God says, "It is not good for man to be alone." And you can read that like, "Aw, God wanted Adam to have a friend." But it's deeper. God Himself is relationship—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Not isolated. Not independent. Not self-focused. Unity. So when God creates marriage, He's not just giving Adam a partner. He's giving humanity a living picture of His image. And that's why the enemy attacks it so relentlessly. Because if your marriage reflects God's love, covenant, and unity… it becomes a threat to darkness. You Can Know Scripture… and Still Not Live It One of the most powerful themes Randy and Rozanne address is something you've probably seen too: You've met people who know the Bible. They can quote verses. They can correct theology. They can debate Greek words. And yet… They aren't gentle. They aren't kind. They aren't tender. And you're left thinking: How can someone love God's Word and still not look like Jesus? Randy explains this through something he learned from Dallas. He describes the difference between: believing something is the "right answer" versus believing it as a "way of life" And this matters for your marriage, because it's the difference between: knowing what love is supposed to look like and actually becoming the kind of person who naturally loves well The "12-Inch Journey" That Changes Everything Randy talks about the journey from: Head knowledge → Heart transformation And he explains it in a way that lands: When Jesus says, "Turn the other cheek," He isn't just commanding you to grit your teeth and try harder. He's describing what becomes natural when your heart has been reshaped. And that is what every marriage needs. Not just more information, but more transformation. Sexual Unity Isn't Just Physical… It's Theological If you've ever wondered why marriage feels so sacred—and so fiercely contested—this is why. Lean in, because this is where things get breathtaking. Randy explains the concept that: God is three Persons (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) who share one Being And marriage—two becoming one—is meant to reflect that kind of unity. Not perfectly. Not as God. But as an earthly image. And Rozanne brings it back to the practical: Sexual intimacy bonds you in a way nothing else does. It is not "just physical." It is a sacred expression of covenant oneness. And when you treat your spouse like an "other" instead of part of your own being… You start wounding your marriage from the inside. You Don't Need Your Husband to Be a Seminary Graduate to Be a Spiritual Leader If you're a wife reading this, you may be carrying a burden you were never meant to carry: "I'm the one who prays." "I'm the one who gets us to church." "I'm the one trying to get him to lead." "I'm exhausted." And if you're a husband reading this, you may feel stuck too: "She knows more than I do." "I don't even know where to start." "I work hard, but I still feel like I'm failing." Here's something freeing: Spiritual leadership isn't about being the most impressive. It's about being the one who initiates. The leader is the starter. The one who creates space where spiritual thriving can happen. That might look like: "Hey, let's read something together for 15 minutes." "Let's pray before dinner." "We're going to church as a family." "I want God in our home, and I want to learn." That's leadership. And yes—your wife might know more Scripture right now. But what she's been longing for isn't your performance. It's your presence. Your courage. Your initiation. If You Want Him to Rise, Stop Coaching His Weakness and Start Naming His Strength This is where it gets tender. Because if you're honest, you've probably tried to motivate him with disappointment. You've tried to push him into leadership by pointing out everything he's not doing. You want to feel safe. You want to feel supported. You want to be led. But here's something you need to understand about men: Men move toward competency, not incompetency. If you highlight his failure, he retreats. If you honor his effort, he leans in. So if he makes even a small move—don't critique it. Celebrate it. If he picks up a Bible, don't correct how he reads it. If he prays, don't edit his words afterward. If he initiates church, don't mention that it's "about time." Instead, try this: "Thank you. That meant a lot." "I feel cared for when you do that." "I'm grateful you're leading our family." This isn't fake flattery. It's faith. It's calling out the man you want him to become—while giving him a reason to keep going. Your Intimacy Will Not Heal If You Keep Avoiding the Scariest Conversations One of the enemy's favorite strategies is fear—specifically fear that keeps you from talking honestly about intimacy. You live with this person. You share a bed. You share a home. So why does it feel terrifying to say what you want? What you need? What hurts? What you're longing for? Because intimacy is powerful. And the enemy knows if he can keep you silent, he can keep you disconnected. But if you can learn to speak with tenderness, honesty, and safety… You can rebuild something beautiful. And here's the truth: Sex isn't dirty. It's sacred. It's a physical expression of covenant oneness. And when joy rises in your relationship, romance often rises too. Not because you force it. But because safety creates desire. And desire grows where connection is nurtured. You Don't Need Two Hours a Day. You Need One Small Step of Obedience. You might be thinking, "Okay… but I'm tired. Our life is chaotic. Where do we even begin?" Begin small. Set a timer. Fifteen minutes. That's it. Obedience comes before blessing. And when you take one small step toward God together, it does something inside you. It starts moving belief from your head to your heart—where real transformation happens. Little by little, fruit grows. And fruit isn't for the tree. Fruit is for the person who tastes it. Which means: your spiritual growth is meant to bless your spouse. Your Next Step: See the Bible as One Story (Not a Scavenger Hunt) Randy and Rozanne recently released a book called Encountering God's Love: From Genesis to Revelation. And their heart behind it is simple: Most believers don't struggle because they don't love God. They struggle because they don't understand the storyline. They know verses… but not the narrative. So this book is designed as 52 weeks of bite-sized pieces, walking you through Scripture chronologically, helping you see: God's story your story and how your marriage fits into redemption And yes—this is something you can do as a couple. Even if you're exhausted. Even if you're busy. Even if you feel behind. Final Encouragement Your marriage isn't just a relationship you manage. It's a covenant you steward. And if you've been living like the lower story is all there is—God is inviting you to look up. He's writing something. Even here. Even now. Even in your marriage. So take a breath. Ask Him what He's doing in the upper story. And take the next step. Because your story isn't over. And God is very, very good at bringing dead things back to life. Including you. Including your spouse. Including your intimacy. Including your marriage. Blessings, The Delight Your Marriage Team PS - Want to check out Encountering God's Love for yourself?

PPPS - Here is a quote from a recent graduate: "The atmosphere in our home was very toxic with lots of hollering and hurtful things said. There was no fun or joy. We were just existing. This affected my thought life as I was very disappointed in myself and felt like I was a hypocrite as I am a leader in our local church and lots of people look up to me. I felt like God was even disappointed in me. I felt shame for not being a good wife...[Now,] I have become more aware of my actions and reactions to my husband, and realized I have the power, with God's help, to make our marriage good and to love my husband well. The tools I have learned in DW will forever be in and on my mind as I focus on becoming the wife God desires me to be. I have learned that sex is good and holy and also meant to be pleasurable for me! The atmosphere in our home is changing and playfulness is back!"
Audio taken from the teaching "Sexual Scandal - God's Plan for Broken Leaders" - https://youtu.be/tnsqjkavojMToday will be difficult. Sadly, I found out just days ago that a pastor very close to me, and my family, has been involved in perverted ongoing sexual sin.Rather than cover or minimize the transgression, I am choosing to open the Scriptures and take a fresh look at the biblical blueprint for sexual scandal, and morally broken leaders.In our Bible study today we will examine and answer these 3 important questions.1 - What are the moral qualifications for a minister? 2 - Can a minister be restored after moral failure?3 - How should a church respond to moral failure?Key Scripture used in today's teaching: Galatians 6:1 NLTOther Scriptures referenced: 1 Timothy 3:1-7; 1 John 1:9; Matthew 7:2; 1 Corinthians 10:12; In Galatians 1:6; Matthew 18:15-17; 1 Timothy 5:24; Romans 9:15-16; Numbers 32:23; I Corinthians 5:9-13; 1 Timothy 5:20 (ESV); 1 Corinthians 10:13Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be read from the New Living Translation (NLT) Bible.Other titles mentioned in today's teaching - “Sin, Scandal & Secrets” https://youtu.be/mHWlvRgklnc?si=e2F3lfwtc6pKbHCOIf you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know!

On Today's Show: Prager continues to explore the complexities of male sexuality, discussing the inherent differences between men and women. He delves into the male sex urge, which is quantitative rather than qualitative, and how this affects relationships. Dennis also touches on the societal and institutional proofs of these differences, including pornography, prostitution, and strip clubs.
