Frustrated, tapping the screen, she reminded me of my grandmother. “We can do it together,” I offered. She was so happy, smiled, and gave me a little hug. “Thank you so much. I live alone, and this was super helpful.”

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, a Super Bowl champion and one of the NFL's top stars, is now facing a long absence because of blood clots in his lungs — and his team is facing serious questions over his medical treatment. cbsn.ws/4BguaVD

Jalen Hurts was placed on the Eagles' injured reserve list last week for a blood clot, but his agent announced Monday that it was more dangerous than initially thought. He is expected to miss the rest of the season after his diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis and blood clots in both of his lungs.
@DrLaPook weighs in on the future of Hurts' career: "He has every possibility of playing and having a career, but let's see." cbsn.ws/4dKbweO

A little humor goes a long way. 💙
During his recent appearance on @CBSSunday, @AlanAlda spoke with @DrLaPook about living with Parkinson's disease, the importance of staying active, and why he refuses to let a diagnosis define who he is.

Alan Alda explored themes of empathy throughout the run of “M*A*S*H,” but especially in the series’ final episode, in which Alda included a nod to stories he’d heard from World War II and the Korean War

She told me she was coming to see her son in the ICU.
30 minutes later she came to tell me her son had passed. “I was at his bedside, held his hand.” I knew exactly how she was feeling. Not long ago, I lost my son. #empathy @nyulangone #StoriesOfEmpathyInTheWorkplace

“Choosin’ Texas,” a song @mirandalambert co-wrote, was inspired by a story she told Ella Langley about getting pulled over by a cop with a kangaroo in her passenger seat.
The song spent a record 24 weeks at No. 1. Lambert describes the experience as “mind blown emoji.” cbsn.ws/47g7lnd

Alan Alda opens up about his Parkinson's disease, revealing on 'CBS Sunday Morning,' his first symptom was acting out his dreams, including once throwing a pillow at his wife while dreaming he was being attacked. The 90-year-old 'M*A*S*H' star, who was diagnosed in 2014, says he's learned to accept his reality, but doesn't let it define him, joking, 'It’s not who I am. It’s just a hobby.'
