76ers star Joel Embiid confirms Bell's palsy diagnosis after 50-point game vs. Knicks: 'It's been tough'
April 26, 2024
Philadelphia, PA - When the Philadelphia 76ers' first-round playoff series vs. the New York Knicks began, all eyes were on Joel Embiid's surgically repaired knee and his overall conditioning level after he'd only been back for six games following a two-month absence. As the series (which the Knicks lead 2-1 after Philly's Game 3 win on Thursday) has progressed, however, attention has increasingly shifted to Embiid's face. Specifically, the left side of his face, which has been visibly drooping, and his left eye, which hasn't been blinking. In his postgame interview on Thursday, Embiid confirmed that he has been dealing with, and has been treated for, a case of Bell's palsy for the last week-plus, since a few days before Philadelphia's Play-In victory over the Miami Heat last Tuesday. In a previous report before Embiid spoke, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski noted that Embiid had been trying to keep the condition private so as to avoid a distraction for the Sixers, but as this has become increasingly visible to even casual observers, it was going to be hard to keep it under wraps.

Cancer diagnosis forces candidate to withdraw from Missouri state Senate race
April 25, 2024
A Republican state Senate candidate with a history of obscene and insulting social media posts said Thursday that he will withdraw from the race after receiving a cancer diagnosis. Former state Rep. Chuck Basye [65] of Rocheport made the announcement during an interview on the Wake Up Mid-Missouri show on KSSZ-FM in Columbia. “I received a medical diagnosis a few weeks ago, right around the time I filed, and I have prostate cancer,” Basye said. “And so I’m gonna have to withdraw from the Senate race.” Basye said he had hoped to stay in the race despite the diagnosis but that he’s learning more about his illness and wants to concentrate on treatment. “I was gonna try and hang in there but I had another doctor who recommended an MRI and indicated additional different cancer in the same area, so I don’t know what the status of that is yet,” Basye said.
“It’s not a death sentence:” Julia Fello reveals husband’s heartbreaking diagnosis on Wisconsin’s Afternoon News
April 25, 2024
Milwaukee, WI — Around last April, my family’s lives changed forever. Just a couple weeks before, my husband Jason had been handed this foreign pamphlet filled with information about this disease I was sure he did not have. “Parkinson’s?! Who IS this doctor?!” ‘He’s only 39,’ I thought. So fit. So young. WTF? He went in for the brain scan and thought nothing of it. I would regret not taking off work ever since and being by his side. Even more, not answering his calls, as I was on breaking news as a television news reporter for the NBC affiliate in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Jason got the results back in no time. Within an hour. On his drive home. His MyChart app alerted him the results were in. (Under the Affordable Care Act, you as a patient by law, get all of your results. Immediately.) Among the terms that were written out by the radiologist were, ‘Abnormal’ ‘Parkinsonian Syndrome.’ We have learned Early Onset Parkinson’s is far different from late onset Parkinson’s. The doctor we saw a few months ago at Mayo assured us Jason can and will live a long, fulfilling life well into his 80s. Though there will be bumps down the road. We can still travel. He can still work and do all of the things he loves.”

Nobody, it seems-- not those who've been obliterated by this injection nor their family-- connect the dots. I just heard from a friend of mine that her daughter (30's) got breast cancer a few months ago and just had a double mastectomy, and along with that complications from the chemo, or so my friend believes-- including blood clots...; another guy I know, "came down with" lymphoma about two years ago after getting boosted-- had a cancer ball on his neck the size of a lemon; another friend, her son (in his 30's) was just diagnosed with cancer... the communicators NEVER mention the lethal injection, never assume it's the jab... and I NO LONGER mention it. I've lost so many friends in the last few years through my attempts at warning them, I figure it's better at this point to retain a few people and to talk about inanities... besides, one can always be truthful when alone, while journaling in the morning... the goal for me in this time period: do NOT allow yourself to go insane.
I was stunned when I heard John Roberts declare on national tv that he was vaccine injured.
