Sport Related Head Injury

This has got to hurt!
Super Bowl is just days away and I am as big a fan an ANYONE (see my blog sidebar for evidence!) but I do admit that as a neurosurgeon, I find it increasingly difficult to watch the players heads bounce off the ground with resultant concussions or worse.  I recently presented an educational radio program for my community that I thought I would share.  No cool pictures-just me talking!

  4. The place is really effective, especially for those who destine to mull the diary. But if for fill who are involved in the else block, this website must not be ineffectual.

    1. “No, I can just read you. Finally. I can't believe how blind I was. I can't believe I never noticed. Victor's comment...he was right." She glanced off at the sunset, then turned her gaze back on me. A flash of anger, both in her feelings and her eyes, hit me. "Why didn't you tell me?" she cried. "Why didn't you tell me you loved Dimitri?”
