...ground and hit his head. The impact of the fall left my 62-year-old father in a three-week-long coma. One craniotomy, four blood transfusions and several minor operations later, he is slowly beginning to regain consciousness. On good days, he can whisper his name, squeeze his therapist's hand on command, and breathe for 12 continuous hours without the help of a machine.

...teenage daughter broke up with her boyfriend, and she's taking it hard--like Fatal Attraction hard. She calls him, cries, sees him in school, cries, writes him, cries and just can't seem to get over it. Two of her girlfriends have told me she should see a therapist.
