Ana Juarez - Ana Juarez week 13 reading journal lyrics

11/4/13 Judy is one of more than 228,000 Americans this year who will be diagnosed with lung cancerl. Most of her fellow lung cancer patients, she is struggling not only to learn all she can about her diagnosis and treatment options, but also to adjust to the overwhelming burden of shame and stigma that plagues this disease.Judy said she is ashamed to admit her metastatic, incurable cancer diagnosis to loved ones, and that she is bearing the burden alone. One of the strongest risk factors for lung cancer is smoking. The feeling that lung cancer patients should somehow be held liable for their cancer diagnosis is often the only notion people have about lung cancer. Lung cancer is the deadliest cancer, responsible for more than 25% of all cancer d**hs. It k**s roughly twice as many women as breast cancer, and almost three times as many men as prostate cancer 11/5/13 You're groggy, dizzy even. You can't see straight and you sure as hell can't keep your eyes (or your mind) focused on the screen in front of you. And you're pretty sure your boss has noticed.Sleeping too much is just as bad as not sleeping enough.The average person spends about 33% of his or her life sleeping.the amount of sleep a person needs "depends on your age and activity level as well as your general health and lifestyle habits."Even though the average recommended amount of sleep is seven to nine hours, certain times in your life call for more.Getting a good sleep is god for you 11/6/13 Dr. Sanjay Gupta traveled to Lebanon this month to meet refugees who have been forced from their homes in nearby Syria by the violence there.She said I never imagined I would find myself in Lebanon, on the outskirts of the brutal civil war in Syria. As a 32-year-old woman from Chicago, I didn't know what to expect.For the seven days I was there, most of the kids in the camp followed us in a gaggle, circling us at times, giggling and practicing their English -- "hello" and "thank you."They loved to see their images on my camera's display screen after I took their picture.She was so surprised on how people acted there 11/7/13 Today I read about the top 10 cnn hero. One of the top 10 will receive an additional $250,000 for their cause if the public chooses them as the CNN Hero of the Year.After Dale Beatty lost his legs in the Iraq war, his community thanked him for his service by helping him build a home.Georges Bwelle watched his father suffer, unable to get the medical attention he needed.More than 72,000 people in Charlotte, North Carolina, lack access to fresh produce.Robin Emmons discovered this problem.Foster children don't often get the things other children do, but Danielle Gletow is trying to help change that.That is some of the heros 11/8/13 Today I read about Diana Nyad. She went from Cuba to Florida. It took her 53 hours. She is 64 years old. She wore a special mask to prevent jellyfish's stings her tongue. She started to swim when she was 29. A lot of people came out to on boats or just people standing on shore gathered to cheer her up. Her face ended up really swollen and sunburned
