A Child So Sick They Feared the Worst, Now They Urge Change
By LINDSAY WHITEHURST Associated Press
MONTPELIER, Idaho (AP) — Kale Wuthrich watched doctors surround his son in the emergency room, giving him fluids though IV tubes, running a battery of tests and trying to stabilize him. He was enveloped by the confusion and fear that had been building since his 12-year-old suddenly fell ill weeks after a mild bout with the coronavirus.
“He was very close at that point to not making it, and basically they told me to sit in the corner and pray,” Wuthrich said. “And that’s what I did.”

Attention Vegetable Haters: It Could Be In Your Genes
By Sandee LaMotte, CNN
(CNN) — If certain vegetables have always made you gag, you may be more than a picky eater. Instead, you might be what scientists call a “super-taster:” a person with a genetic predisposition to taste food differently.
Unfortunately, being a super-taster doesn’t make everything taste better. In fact, it can do the opposite.
Super-tasters are extremely sensitive to bitterness, a common characteristic of many dark green, leafy veggies such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage and Brussels sprouts, to name a few.
“The person who has that genetic propensity gets more of the sul...

Faking it: could I go from being an introvert to an extrovert in one week?
New research has found that being an extrovert makes you happier. So I spent a week attending social events to see if I could trick myself into being more naturally outgoingI was asked to torture myself for a week for this experiment.
