If there&#8217;s someone with Alzheimer&#8217;s disease or another dementia in your life, the last thing you need to ring in the new year is more nudges toward self improvement. You may already be thinking, &#8220;forget resolutions about losing weight and giving up alcohol&#8211;I just need to figure out how to survive the stress  [...]]]></description>

When I used to exercise with a friend of mine it went something like this: meet at coffee shop, grab to-go coffee, walk to track, &#8220;stretch&#8221; (also known as gossip) for 45 minutes while drinking coffee, jog for 15 minutes, head to diner for breakfast.

Last year, New York Times reporter Dana Jennings posted a very moving blog titled Ten Lessons of Prostate Cancer.
It touched a nerve for me&#8211;and many of us in Cancer World&#8211;because we all have a desperate desire to connect with others living with cancer in their lives and discover the tidbits of knowledge [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s time to talk once again about the importance of vitamin D, aka the sunlight vitamin. I&#8217;ve written about vitamin D before, but good advice bears repeating. More and more compelling news about the benefits of vitamin D keeps coming out&#8211;yet the message doesn&#8217;t seem to be reaching people.

Picture this: A fit, handsome sixty-something couple stretches out on a sandy beach. Another silver-haired pair steers a sailboat toward the sunset. A grey-templed golfer watches his drive soar down the fairway. This life of relaxation and luxury, in which every day is one big happy holiday, has long been a [...]]]></description>
