A federal judge is weighing whether Yale New Haven Hospital's cognitive testing policy for doctors over 70 violates age and disability discrimination laws. The EEOC argues there's no evidence the testing improves patient safety. Yale says the test helps identify potential cognitive decline and protect patients. No ruling was issued Thursday. Attorney Gary Phelan is here with Hurwitz Sagarin & Slossberg in Milford and is also a law professor at Quinnipiac University.

In this insightful episode of Parallax, Dr Ankur Kalra welcomes Dr Kim Smolderen, Professor of Medicine and Psychiatry at Yale University and psychologist at Yale New Haven Hospital, for a conversation on the growing field of cardiovascular psychology. Together, they explore how psychological well-being, medical trauma and social determinants of health influence cardiovascular outcomes, and why integrating these factors into routine cardiovascular care is essential for delivering truly patient-centred medicine. Dr Smolderen discusses the evidence linking anxiety, depression and PTSD to longer hospital stays, repeat procedures and increased healthcare utilisation. She shares her vision for creating "healing eco-systems" that bridge traditional clinical silos, bringing psychology and cardiology together through integrated care pathways, psychosocial risk assessment and trauma-informed care. The discussion also examines the business case for cardiovascular psychology, from reducing readmissions and emergency department visits to improving efficiency and enhancing the patient experience. As cardiovascular psychology continues to gain momentum globally, this episode highlights how whole-person care can benefit both patients and providers.

Why don't more doctors talk about death? Dr. Lydia Dugdale has been asking this question since she was a medical student. She is the Silberberg Professor of Medicine and directs the Center for Clinical Medical Ethics, and two books on how we die, including "The Lost Art of Dying." "Most medical professionals today are very unpracticed at talking to patients about their mortality," she says. Not only unpracticed, but even themselves afraid. In this bonus clip from Episode 232 with Macie Bridge, Dugdale traces the path from that early perplexity on the wards to the ars moriendi, the medieval art of dying, grounded in the idea that dying is part of living, so if you want to die well you have to live well. Lydia comments on the emergence of palliative care and the way it let physicians hand conversations about death to specialists; the doctor who inherited the priest's old place at the threshold between life and death; the death anxiety clinicians carry without examining; virtue as preparation for dying, and community as the other half of living well; the unrepresented patients of New York City who die alone; and a grumpy old man, hospitalized for 20 years, who wept when she read aloud what she had written about him. Episode Highlights “Most medical professionals today are very unpracticed at talking to patients about their mortality.” “we are really the intermediaries between life and death, I'm not saying we're priests, but that used to be the role of the priest. And so it is now the role of the physician. “If you want to die well, you have to live well.” We have to be all in or we end up like all of these patients here in New York City who have no one that I can reach out to as they're dying. “He started weeping and he said, someone finally saw me. Someone finally saw me. I've been in this hospital for 20 years and I didn't think anyone ever saw me.” About Lydia Dugdale Lydia Dugdale is a physician and medical ethicist who has spent fifteen years asking why medicine finds death so hard to talk about. She is the Silberberg Professor of Medicine at Columbia, directs the Columbia Center for Clinical Medical Ethics, and co-directs clinical ethics at NewYork-Presbyterian Milstein Hospital, where she still sees patients. She edited "Dying in the Twenty-First Century" and wrote "The Lost Art of Dying," a modern ars moriendi. She trained at the University of Chicago and Yale-New Haven Hospital, holds a master's in ethics from Yale Divinity School, and in 2025 founded the nonprofit Heal the Nation.

Tick bites and concerns about Lyme disease are increasing, especially during warmer months. In this episode of Health Matters, host Courtney Allison speaks with Dr. Laura Kirkman and Dr. Karen Acker of NewYork-Presbyterian, Weill Cornell Medicine, and NewYork-Presbyterian Komansky Children's Hospital of Children's Hospital of New York about what people should know about ticks and Lyme disease. Dr. Kirkman explains the types of ticks found in the U.S., where they live, and how they attach to the body. She emphasizes that not every tick bite leads to Lyme disease—it depends on the tick species, whether it carries the bacteria, and how long it remains attached. Dr. Acker explains how Lyme disease is transmitted and outlines the stages of infection, including early symptoms such as the characteristic bullseye rash, fever, and fatigue, as well as less common complications involving the nervous system, heart, or joints. The conversation also covers how Lyme disease is diagnosed and treated, including when testing is necessary and when a preventive dose of antibiotics may be recommended after a tick bite. Finally, the doctors share practical strategies to prevent tick bites—from tick checks and proper clothing to repellents and safe tick removal—and discuss emerging concerns like lone star ticks and alpha-gal syndrome. Their key message: with awareness and simple precautions, you can significantly reduce your risk.   Chapters 00:00 – Understanding Ticks and Their Risks Overview of tick species, where they live, and how they interact with humans 04:30 – What Is Lyme Disease? How Lyme disease is transmitted, early symptoms, and stages of infection 08:45 – Diagnosis, Treatment, and Tick Removal When to test for Lyme disease, antibiotic options, and how to safely remove a tick 12:00 – Preventing Tick Bites and Emerging Concerns Prevention strategies, protecting kids and pets, and lone star tick risks   Key Topics Covered Tick species in the U.S. Where ticks live and how they attach Lyme disease transmission Early symptoms of Lyme disease Bullseye rash and warning signs Diagnosis and antibody testing Antibiotic treatment and prevention Proper tick removal techniques Tick bite prevention strategies Lone star tick and alpha-gal syndrome Takeaway Message A tick bite does not automatically mean Lyme disease. By checking for ticks regularly, removing them promptly, and using simple prevention strategies, you can significantly reduce your risk. When caught early, Lyme disease is highly treatable—making awareness and prevention your best tools for staying safe outdoors.   Doctor Bios Dr. Laura Kirkman is a physician-scientist whose research focuses on the molecular pathogenesis of infection with bloodborne parasitic diseases: malaria and babesiosis. Dr. Kirkman received her M.D. from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine with distinction in research where she benefitted from support from a Howard Hughes Medical Student research award. She completed her clinical training in internal medicine at Yale-New Haven Hospital and her infectious disease fellowship at the NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center. She is an associate professor of medicine and microbiology and immunology at Weill Cornell Medicine.   Dr. Karen Acker is a pediatric hospital epidemiologist at NewYork-Presbyterian Komansky Children's Hospital of Children's Hospital of New York, and an assistant professor in clinical pediatrics at Weill Cornell Medicine. She received her medical degree from SUNY Downstate Medical Center followed by a residency in pediatrics at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center.

Her clinical and research interests include the epidemiology of infectious outbreaks and healthcare-associated infections, diagnostic stewardship, Staphylococcus aureus infections, respiratory viral infections in children, and factors influencing vaccine uptake in children. Dr. Acker is board-certified in pediatrics and board-certified for pediatric infectious diseases.

Shay Taylor-Allen was a janitor at the Yale New Haven Hospital where she was born. She finished high school and had no desire to go to college. So, she started working as a janitor at Yale New Haven Hospital. Through her work there, she started pursuing medical school. She said, “I want to build a bridge between doctors and other service workers.” She was able to get into Howard University College of Medicine and on Match Day on March 20, 2026 she landed an anesthesiology residency at the hospital where she worked as a janitor. Get that. From janitor to a medical residency. She said it was great news to hear that she was now coming home. She will be engaged in doing what she felt like she ought to do all of her life. How far along are you in reaching your goal?

Older adults consist of approximately half of the patients in the ICU, with that number expected to grow in the coming decades. In this episode of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Podcast, host Marilyn N. Bulloch, PharmD, BCPS, FCCM, is joined by Bram Rochwerg, MD, MSc(Epi), FRCPC, FCCM, and Lauren E. Ferrante, MD, MHS, to discusses new guidelines on caring for older adults in the ICU and the difficulties in finding research that focuses on those patients. The guidelines, “Society of Critical Care Medicine Guidelines on Caring for Older Adults in the ICU,” will be published in an upcoming issue of Critical Care Medicine. The panel details the process and methodology behind the guidelines, the dearth of studies focusing on older patients in the ICU, and the difficulty of finding studies that enroll older adults who are on multiple medications. The guidelines offer two conditional recommendations and offer priorities for aging-friendly research topics to help provide stronger guidance in the future. Bram Rochwerg, MD, MSc(Epi), FRCPC, FCCM, is an associate professor, intensivist, and researcher based at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, who focuses on intravenous fluid use in sepsis, the role of corticosteroids in acute hypoxemic respiratory failure, and clinical practice guideline methodology. Lauren E. Ferrante, MD, MHS, is an associate professor of medicine in the section of pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine at the Yale School of Medicine; director of the operations core of the Yale Claude D. Pepper Older Americans Independence Center; and an attending physician in the medical intensive care unit at Yale-New Haven Hospital in New Haven, Connecticut, USA.

At a time when modern medicine is allowing people to enjoy longer, fuller lives, mortality is not always a chief concern. But when a serious illness occurs, the topic becomes unavoidable. This became especially clear during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic when hospitals were overrun with patients, many with grim prognoses. "The pandemic gave all of us a sense that life can be short and there's the very real possibility of dying," says Jennifer Kapo, MD, director of the Palliative Care Program at Yale New Haven Hospital. "It opened the door for us to talk more about death and have a better sense of our mortality." Palliative care is a caregiving approach for anyone with a serious or chronic medical condition; its goal is to maximize quality of life and manage symptoms. In addition to helping patients and their families navigate difficult conversations and decisions, palliative care team members are attentive to "goals of care," which means understanding the patient's wishes and how medical steps can help achieve them. For example, if a patient has a low likelihood of coming off a ventilator, that would be made clear to them, if possible, before they were put on one, explains Laura Morrison, MD, a physician in the Palliative Care Program. "The pandemic highlighted the need for us to have more proactive and earlier conversations with patients and their families. If we gave them the chance to make a choice, some might say they don't want to die in an intensive care unit," Dr. Kapo adds. Still, many people still aren't sure what palliative care really means. Below, we talk with a few members of Yale Medicine's program to better understand it. How does palliative care differ from hospice care? Palliative care is a specialized model of care for people living with serious or chronic illnesses including cancer, heart and liver failure, dementia, and pulmonary disease. Like hospice care, the focus is on maximizing comfort and quality of life. But palliative and hospice care differ in that hospice is for patients who are not receiving life-extending treatment, and is typically limited to the last six months—or less—of one's life. Palliative care, conversely, can be integrated into a patient's medical care at any point during their illness, from diagnosis to end-of-life, and can include life-extending medical treatment. "Essentially, palliative care is an extra layer of support for any patient who has a serious illness. That can include attention to pain and other symptom management, as well as help coping with the stress of having the illness," Dr. Morrison explains. "We also focus on facilitating communication between patients, their families, and medical providers." The Palliative Care Program has 35 members in various disciplines, including physicians, nurses, social workers, a chaplain, a psychologist, and a pharmacist. Palliative care services are offered to all patients at Yale New Haven Hospital and Smilow Cancer Hospital, and at Smilow's outpatient offices. And it provides care on a spectrum, based on what patients and their loved ones need in the moment. "At the beginning of a serious illness, a patient's needs might revolve around addressing anxiety over their diagnosis," Dr. Kapo says. Plus, taking care of the entire family, and not just the patient, is an important element, Dr. Kapo adds. "Our goal is to provide the best quality of life possible to patients and their families, which is why our bereavement program is also an important element. Our care does not stop when a loved one dies," she says. How is palliative care broached with patients? Because Yale Medicine offers palliative care to hospitalized patients, that is often where someone first hears about the model of care. "We typically structure the conversation broadly at first and ask a patient what they understand about their illness, what they have heard about it, and what they believe about it," Dr. Kapo says. "If a patient has no idea that death is a real possibility, we spend a lot of time sharing information. Or, if they have been sick for five years and know that time may be short, we talk about what is important to them and what they want to do with the time they have left." That, Dr. Kapo says, opens a conversation about a patient's values. "We listen very carefully and get a sense of whether this is a patient with goals of wanting to extend life no matter what it takes, or someone who is more interested in quality of life," she says. The goal of palliative care is not to change a patient's mind about their decisions, she adds. "It's to listen to a patient's story and support their decisions," Dr. Kapo says. "If someone tells me that they will fight for every last second of life, no matter what the cost might be physically, then we honor that." Meanwhile, a social worker can provide support and address any psychosocial issues. For example, if someone is just diagnosed with a critical illness, their primary concern might be how they can still work and pay their bills. The team's social worker can help them navigate the logistics of their health insurance coverage and sick time policies, among other issues. With other patients, the social worker might help explain a diagnosis to a patient's children in an age-appropriate way. The program also has a medical-legal partnership that assists patients with estate planning; navigating entitlements, including Social Security and insurance; and advance directives (a living will), a written statement of a patient's wishes regarding medical treatment in the event they are unable to communicate them to a doctor. What are the benefits of palliative care? Palliative care is by no means a new medical concept. In fact, it was all medical providers had before many current treatments were invented. "Back in the early 20th century, before antibiotics and chemotherapy and many other therapies we now have, physicians provided palliative care as their treatment," Dr. Morrison says. "Our job was to be present, hold hands with patients, and relieve symptoms as it was possible. Morphine might have been given for pain." Today, palliative care encompasses not only all the advanced medical treatments and medications now available, but it is increasingly being woven into care for chronic conditions. Meanwhile, research has shown that palliative care is effective. One study published in The New England Journal of Medicine in 2010 examined patients newly diagnosed with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. One group received standard oncologic care; the other had standard oncologic care with palliative care added on. Those in the palliative care group reported less anxiety and depression and were also hospitalized less. They also lived a month longer. Subsequent similar studies expanding to other populations with advanced serious illness have also shown positive outcomes.  (CREDITS: YALE MEDICINE)

Comment on the Show by Sending Mark a Text Message.The alarming reality of physician burnout has reached crisis levels, with six out of ten doctors now experiencing burnout—up significantly from pre-pandemic numbers. Behind these statistics are real people and real stories that demand our attention.This episode takes a deep dive into the disturbing allegations contained in Dr. Allison Schmeck's legal complaint against Yale University and Yale New Haven Hospital. Read a copy of the federal complaint HERE. As a triple board-certified anesthesiologist, Dr. Schmeck's experience reveals the dark underbelly of academic medicine: alleged gender discrimination where female physicians were assigned double the workload of male colleagues, disability discrimination where her disclosed history of depression was labeled as "baggage," and devastating retaliation when she reported unethical practices and requested mental health accommodations.The most heartbreaking aspect of this case is how systemic failures allegedly drove a talented physician to the brink of suicide—making concrete plans including updating her will and arranging for her pets' care. Dr. Schmeck's journey exposes how institutions might weaponize mental health history against physicians who speak up, while simultaneously denying them opportunities granted to less qualified male colleagues. When leadership allegedly defines "positive faculty experience" as making superiors happy rather than supporting staff wellbeing, it reveals fundamental flaws in medical culture.This powerful examination connects one doctor's personal nightmare to nationwide physician mental health statistics, where 80% of doctors acknowledge the stigma preventing them from seeking help. What must change in our medical institutions to protect those who dedicate their lives to healing others? How many talented physicians are we losing to these systemic failures? Listen and consider what responsibility we all share in demanding better for those who care for us at our most vulnerable moments.

Maternal health refers to the health of women during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postnatal period. Even though important progress has been made in the last two decades in this area, we still have a lot of work to do. The World Health Organization says about 287,000 women died during and following pregnancy and childbirth in 2020. To help us understand the things that need to be done in order to bring these numbers down, Nicole sought out Dr. Daileann Hemmings. She is a doctoral prepared perinatal nurse with a focus in the Community/Public Health sector, with over 20 years of nursing experience specializing in perinatal health at some of the country's top hospitals, such as Yale New Haven Hospital and Johns Hopkins. Right now, Daileann serves as the Program Director of Maternal Health Equity at Hartford Hospital in which she works to address health disparities that impact mortality & morbidity. Nicole and Daileann share in a very candid and open conversation about how we can better support mothers -- especially those of color, some of the inequities that individuals of color experience, the initiatives she has helped implement to address the issues, and the preventability of maternal deaths. You will walk away from this episode with not only more knowledge on this topic, but a greater understanding of what you can do to help other support other moms experiencing such inequality when it comes to their maternal health.-----------------------------------SHOW NOTES:Host: Nicole Nalepa | @NicoleNalepaTVGuest: Daileann Hemmings

Ischemic heart disease is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. While atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (CAD) is the focus of most outpatient and inpatient evaluations for cardiovascular symptoms, up to two thirds of patients suffer from myocardial ischemia with non-obstructive coronary arteries (INOCA). Patients with INOCA have unique symptoms and are more likely to have functional limitation and repeat presentations for cardiovascular evaluation. While there has been increasing recognition of INOCA there is no specific functional status measure, limiting our ability to evaluate the course of illness or effectiveness of therapies. In this presentation, Dr. Samit Shah, interventional cardiologist at Yale New Haven Hospital who recently gave grand rounds recently to the Mayo Clinic Department of Emergency Medicine, reviews the causes of ischemic heart disease, challenges with current symptom assessment, and proposes a new path for better diagnosis and treatment of heart disease.   CONTACTS X - @AlwaysOnEM; @VenkBellamkonda; @SamitShahMD YouTube - @AlwaysOnEM; @VenkBellamkonda Instagram – @AlwaysOnEM; @Venk_like_vancomycin; @ASFinch Email - AlwaysOnEM@gmail.com

Medical debt has a strange and storied history in America. Stretching back to colonial times, physicians and patients alike have grappled with its harsh realities. In recent years, hospitals have resorted to selling medical debt to third parties, who then aggressively pursue patients. In today's episode, medical historian Luke Messac, MD, PhD, guides us through the past and present landscape of medical debt, examining perspectives from patients, providers, hospitals, and governments. We delve into a form of indentured servitude in the name of debt clearance, the birth of nonprofit hospitals, a pivotal shift in the 1980s, feasibility of operating healthcare under free market principles, medical economics in the 1600s, hospitals suing patients, and the emergence of medical debt as its own thriving industry.

 Recent advancements in treatment and a multimodal approach to care are improving outcomes for patients with head and neck cancer, however access to therapies and unique patient challenges due to disease symptoms, difficulty eating, difficulty communicating, and other psychosocial factors can reduce patient quality of life. In this episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with Angelea Bruce, RD, CSO, OPN-CG, registered dietician and head and neck program navigator at Sharp Memorial Hospital and Brittney Watts, RN, head and neck patient care coordinator at Yale New Haven Hospital, about the importance of head and neck nurse navigation and how a dedicated navigator can help address these unique patient needs and improve care for patients with head and neck cancer.  “I think looking at it through the eyes of the physicians, the health insurance, the organization [cancer program], and looking at what are the patient outcomes, success rates, delays in care, survivorship...I think those are important metrics to monitor and we [as head and neck patient navigators] can let a program know whether the patient's needs are being met.” –Angelea Bruce, RD, CSO, OPN-CG “Having a specific nurse coordinator for the head and neck community is vital to the patient's journey within the entire process. This is the point person for the patient, for the providers, and you are the connection for the patient to the healthcare facility.” –Brittney Watts, RN Guests Angelea Bruce, RD, CSO, OPN-CG Registered Dietician, Head & Neck Program Navigator Sharp Memorial Hospital San Diego, California   Brittney Watts, RN Head & Neck Cancer Patient Care Coordinator Yale New Haven Hospital New Haven, Connecticut  This episode, developed in connection with the ACCC education program Multidisciplinary Approaches to Head and Neck Cancer Care, was made possible with support by EMD Serono.

Curious about how to find an egg donor, sperm donor or surrogate? Gail Sexton Anderson, the visionary behind Donor Concierge, addresses all of these questions and provides insights about how  the process operates and who covers expenses.     Donor Concierge assists clients requiring third party fertility (aka donor or surrogacy support) in their family building journey. Choosing someone outside your family to enable your family to grow can be really complicated and emotional and together we explore all these nuances.  Gail and her team are dedicated to supporting clients through every step. If using a donor or a surrogate is on your mind, this episode is not to be missed—it's brimming with vital information.   IN THIS EPISODE: [2:51] Gail explains what services the Donor Concierge provides and defines language used in the field [6:36] Gail shares the details of how Donor Concierges operates, how they assist clients navigating through the donor field and what clients are looking for in their search [18:06] There are three types of searches: egg donor, sperm donor and surrogacy search. What kinds of information are shared, and what are good reasons for openness in the process rather than anonymity  [26:59] Where are surrogates found, and what are the trends [35:44] What is the future of the way fertility and third-party fertility are supported, and are there legal issues  [42:37] When should an intended parent seek the Donor Concierge [46:15] Gail shares what family means to her   KEY TAKEAWAYS: Finding the correct egg or sperm donor cannot be overstated. It does make a difference because an egg is not just an egg, and sperm is not just sperm. Every egg carries genetic information that forms who your child will be one day.  Multiple things can and do go wrong in the process of building a family through egg and sperm donation and surrogacy. Having a firm like Donor Concierge on your side is beneficial because they walk through those difficulties with you.  The process of egg and sperm donation or having a surrogate is not just a means to an end. It is your child's story; it is your family's story. Open communication is essential, and anonymity should be a thing of the past. There is too much information lost when anonymity is a factor.    RESOURCE LINKS: Stork'd - Facebook Stork'd - Instagram Stork'd - YouTube  Donor Concierge - Website   BIOGRAPHY:  Gail Sexton Anderson has dedicated her career to helping intended parents from all walks of life build families.

It was nothing short of a miracle. A woman was barely hanging on to life at Yale-New Haven Hospital in 1942. She had been running a fever of 106 degrees for four weeks, and doctors were out of options. A new treatment – never before tried in the U.S. – brought her back to life in less than 24 hours. Hear the incredible story about the first use of penicillin in the U.S. from the Director of Infection Prevention at Yale-New Haven Hospital, Dr. Richard Martinello.

Have you ever wondered about the hidden truths of the pharmaceutical industry? Well, you're not alone. Today, I had a powerful conversation with Dr. Neda Ashtari, a dedicated resident at Yale New Haven Hospital, who is bravely challenging the Big Pharma. We plunged into the depths of the system and its practices, shedding light on how the drugs are developed, the role of marketing in promoting drug safety, and where all the money actually goes. Neda's personal connection to this fight against Big Pharma and her commitment to the University's Allied for Essential Medicines adds an extra layer of passion and authenticity to our discussion.Delving deeper, we examined the cost implications of the current pharmaceutical system. It's shocking to discover how taxpayer money funds drug development without necessarily ensuring affordability for consumers. The stark reality of how pharmaceutical companies exploit market dynamics to set skyrocketing prices was a topic that we couldn't ignore. As a consequence, we uncover the crisis of unaffordable drugs in the US and the global lack of access to essential medicines. Dr. Ashtari gave an insider's perspective on these pressing issues that will leave you questioning the system as you know it.In the final stretch of our conversation, we zeroed in on the surrogate endpoints, conflicts of interest, and marketing tactics used by the pharmaceutical industry. We also discussed the industry's impact on drug pricing and the public's role in drug development. The most shocking revelation was perhaps the fact that pharmaceutical companies spend more on marketing than on research and development. This episode is a deep dive into the pharmaceutical industry, its practices, and its implications. So, plug in your earphones and join us in this enlightening journey with Dr. Neda Ashtari. Trust me; you won't look at your medicine cabinet the same way again.Check out the shownotes to learn more!__________________Click here to join the exclusive GHP online community!Support the PodcastClick here to send in a one time or monthly donationJoin the Podcast Mailing list: https://www.globalhealthpursuit.com/mailing-list Make sure to follow Hetal on LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook!Email her at hetal@globalhealthpursuit.com.Thank you so much.

If you've ever wanted to heal from illness, or feel better about your life, then do we have the Humor and Healing show for you.   I'll be talking with Dr. Bernie Siegel, about how to laugh your way to self-healing, and happiness.   Bernie Siegel is an American writer and retired pediatric surgeon, who writes on the relationship between the patient and the healing process and the best selling author of numerous books including Love, Medicine and Miracles, Love Animals and Miracles, The Art of Healing, and a phenomenal little audiobook Humor and Healing.   Topics Include: What does it mean to become a love warrior? What it means to send someone love and help change their life? What is 365 Prescriptions for the Soul? How do we heal from the feeling that we are a failure? What we can learn from stories about our life? What we can learn from Simon and Garfunkel? Why you want to wear a bandage when you are not injured! What is the importance of sharing what is ailing you with others? Why people never die, and what it means for you? What laughter means for our health? Why your attitude is so important for your survival? What we can learn from people who have a few months to live? What people have done when they were told they were dying that dramatically extended their lives? What does it mean to choose to live? What does it mean to take back the reigns of your life? How can parents “use love as your weapon”? What does it mean to breathe peace?   Dr. Bernie Siegel was born in Brooklyn, NY. He attended Colgate University and Cornell University Medical College. He holds membership in two scholastic honor societies, Phi Beta Kappa and Alpha Omega Alpha and graduated with honors. His surgical training took place at Yale New Haven Hospital, West Haven Veteran's Hospital and the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh. He retired from practice as an assistant clinical professor of surgery at Yale of general and pediatric surgery in 1989 to speak to patients and their caregivers.   In 1978 he originated Exceptional Cancer Patients, a specific form of individual and group therapy utilizing patients' drawings, dreams, images and feelings. ECaP is based on “carefrontation,” a safe, loving therapeutic confrontation, which facilitates personal lifestyle changes, personal empowerment and healing of the individual's life. The physical, spiritual and psychological benefits which followed led to his desire to make everyone aware of his or her healing potential. He realized exceptional behavior is what we are all capable of.   Bernie, and his wife and coworker Bobbie, live in a suburb of New Haven, Connecticut. They have five children and eight grandchildren. Bernie and Bobbie have co-authored their children, books and articles. Their home with its many children, pets and interests resembled a cross between a family art gallery, museum, zoo and automobile repair shop. It still resembles these things, although the children are trying to improve its appearance in order to avoid embarrassment.   www.dailywoohoo.com - Sign up for my FREE daily newsletter for high-vibration content.   To find out more visit: https://amzn.to/3qULECz - Order Michael Sandler's book, "AWE, the Automatic Writing Experience" www.automaticwriting.com  - Automatic Writing Experience Course www.inspirenationuniversity.com - Michael Sandler's School of Mystics https://inspirenationshow.com/ -  www.dailywoohoo.com - Sign up for my FREE daily newsletter for high-vibration content. …….
