What Scares Doctors?!
That's the title of the 5pm special report I did tonite (Monday). It's a bit over the top, but hey, I guess it gets your attention. I do really like the content of the story. The two doctors we talked to had such great suggestions and personal stories.
Here are the additional links:
The OHSU Prostate Cancer Exercise Study: call the project director Jessica at 503.494.4427 to see if you qualify.

Response time!!
Here's a snippet of what Kathy wrotes about the Body Worlds story: Thank you for talking about the most exciting exhibit coming to OMSI. Two of my biggest interests are biology and art and I'd love to camp out at OMSI for a few days to take it all in. I don't understand the objection to this exhibit which seems reminiscent of the middles ages when scientists risked their lives dissecting dead bodies for the sake of knowledge. Thanks again for excellent coverage.
And a snippet from Rick who wrotes about the male biological clock story: ...a male can produce a hundred babies a year, but a female is lucky to produce two or three babies a year. One male can create a nation, but many females only bear it.
Sam writes: I don't think that men run out of the ability to produce sperm like woman run out of set amount of eggs. But as they get older and having lived decades on poor nutrition and a continual build up of toxins in their bodies, they tend to produce a poorer quality of sperm. This could be way older men tend to have a higher percentage of children with birth defects.
Not only that, but I think that is why older people have trouble with auto-immune diseases too.
Rob writes about my first tram ride: No picture of that banner on the guy’s roof!!!!
What an eye opener that must have been!
Yeah, the homeowner moved that banner to the yard where all you can now see is: "CK THE TRAM".
And I have to show you a couple of photos I've had in my hopper.. My friends Eric and Jodie have two of the cutest kids, as witnessed by these little smiling snapshots:
Megan is a good older to sister to this happy little guy Jack:
I'm shooting a very fun story tomorrow that I've been pushing to do for more than a year. I think it will air Friday, but I'm not sure. I'll let you know. :-)
