The Best News of Last Week - October 30, 2023

1. Bill to Ban Hidden Fees in California Signed into Law

California Attorney General Rob Bonta has released a statement regarding the signing of Senate Bill 478 (SB 478). SB 478, coauthored by Senators Bill Dodd and Nancy Skinner, will eliminate hidden fees, also known as 'junk fees,' in California starting from July 1, 2024. Hidden fees are deceptive charges that sellers include in transactions, either through obscured disclosures or later revelations, impacting consumers negatively.

2. New Portable Water Treatment System Vaporizes 99% of ‘Forever Chemicals’

A startup based Washington has devised a portable system capable of removing the vast majority of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, from water.

The system uses hydrothermal alkaline treatment, or HALT, to eliminate 99% of forever chemicals from water.

3. Tumor-destroying sound waves receive FDA approval for liver treatment in humans

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved the use of sound waves to break down tumors—a technique called histotripsy—in humans for liver treatment. Technique developed at the University of Michigan provides a noninvasive alternative to surgery, chemotherapy and radiation treatments for cancer

4. Japan's top court says trans sterilisation requirement unconstitutional

Japan's Supreme Court has ruled that it is unconstitutional to require citizens to be sterilised before they can officially change genders.

The 2004 law said people could only change their gender if they have no reproductive capacity. Wednesday's ruling came after a transgender woman filed a petition challenging the law.

5. Abandoned golf courses are being reclaimed by nature

Golf courses, despite occupying large green spaces, are not necessarily good for the environment.

Conservation nonprofits and local authorities are looking to acquire golf courses that have been abandoned due to high maintenance costs, low player numbers or other reasons, and repurpose them into landscapes that boost biodiversity and build natural defenses against climate change.

6. NSW court allows health officials to give blood transfusion to Jehovah's Witness toddler

Regional New South Wales health officials have won a court order authorising them to give a blood transfusion to a Jehovah's Witness toddler if needed in surgery. The Supreme Court has been told the girl, three, who can only be referred to as JI, is in need of two surgical procedures. 

On such an application, the overriding criterion to be applied by the court is the best interests and welfare of the child.

7. North Atlantic right whale population has steadied, scientists say

The population of critically endangered North Atlantic right whales appears to have levelled off after a decade of steep decline, according to updated data released this morning by Canadian and American scientists. Scientists in the consortium said Monday that the 2021 estimate of 340 North Atlantic right whales in existence has been recalculated to 365 primarily because of the number of calves born that year.

The estimate for 2022 is 356.

[doberbutts]

Also just because I've been getting some harassing anons and replies on my post ever since that one self-identified Zionist blog got BIG MAD at me for posting the Palestinian flag (ironic considering like 3 days later when I reblogged something Jewish I had people then BIG MAD at me for that too.......)

Skoll, I took on knowing I would probably have to euthanize him for his aggression. From the very beginning the deal was that I was his last stop since he was a known abuse court case dog who was taken from his most recent owners and languishing in a kennel environment but deemed otherwise unadoptable due to severe aggression. The agreement was that I would have him for however long it would take to determine if he was fixable and then either I'd fix it and keep him or I'd euthanize. He bit me three separate times when we were still learning each other, and then attacked me randomly for the crime of petting his head, an act of affection he normally would approach me to request. I euthanized him at the advice of literally everyone involved with his case, and a few days after I euthanized him I got a letter from the state telling me either I put him down or animal control would take him and do it themselves. Pennsylvania is very strict on what they consider a mauling or a maiming and the resulting bite from his attack was very severe. I have had multiple people, including vets, neurologists, and behaviorists, tell me that they think he had rage, a seizure disorder which causes uncontrollable aggression, when I describe what his random bouts of attempting to attack literally the first thing he locked eyes on looked like.

Tiki, I rescued because I wanted a tiny dog and a dog that would live longer than a doberman, because dobe lifespans are hideously short due to their health problems. Within about 5 minutes of driving away with her, I realized she was very, very sick. We stopped at the vet before we even got her home. Over the next several months and constant ER visits we discovered she had hydrocephalus and also an immune condition that was slowly eating her lungs. She crashed during a procedure that was supposed to be our last attempt at fixing the lung problem as by then we knew the hydrocephalus would kill her anyway and we were trying to extend her life as long as possible. I dropped her off for the procedure, they called me on my way home, and I turned around so I could be there to say goodbye.

Creed died from cancer 🤷‍♂️ mast cell cancer is THE most common cancer in dogs as a species and it's a genuine coin toss if removing the initial tumor fixes it or if it's too late by the time you notice, because it forms on scar tissue so it hides by looking like a regular scar. Creed had a bunch of nicks and scrapes from running around in the woods on our hikes. One of the earliest scars he ever got is what killed him in the end. Losing him is what turned my blog from what it used to be, all dogs all the time, to what it is now. Ironically, he lived roughly the average lifespan for a doberman at 7.5 years old.

Phoebe, I was not involved in the decision to euthanize her. She came to me once again very sick, and I did my best to fix the problem, but it seemed to be a lot bigger than me or her other owner had expected. Her other owner took her to multiple specialists more local to her, and finally we came to a tentative diagnosis of a liver shunt. Her condition degraded rapidly and she went blind and began having seizures, and her other owner made the choice to say goodbye. Surgery was not an option due to her already bad condition not being certain she would actually survive anesthesia. I knew that she was not doing well, but I was not informed that she had died until several months later, despite my asking for updates because I suspected she'd passed. I don't disagree with the choice, I just wish I'd known when it happened. What we thought was just a chronic hookworm infestation and possible pancreatitus from the long-term damage from the hookworms turned out to be much more serious, and deadly, when it stopped responding to treatment.

If you have any questions on my capability as a dog owner to actually keep dogs alive, I'd like to direct you to the fact that Creed and my other actually-purchased-from-a-breeder dogs have lived good long lives. I keep getting sick dogs in rescue despite being told they are healthy, and that is exactly why I refuse to rescue dogs anymore. I'm tired of breaking my heart while cleaning up a problem someone else created. This is the part of rescue that doesn't get shared- what happens when someone loses the rescue lottery again and again and again with sick and mentally unwell dogs that are doomed to die before they've had a chance to truly live? I'm tired of being that someone. I'm tired of loving dogs and hemorrhaging money in a desperate attempt to fix them and feeling the weight of their bodies in my arms when that wasn't enough and they die anyway.

At least I can say Creed had a good fulfilled life as my constant companion, even if he didn't live nearly long enough compared to what I wanted.

The Rollercoaster Line

Friday the 11th I had my first body scan which was delayed because I was supposed to drink some radioactive drink prior ,but the appointment had been scheduled so quickly that the drink was lost in translation. It worked out - a small miracle - they were able to provide me with a drink and reschedule me for two hours later! While I drank the radioactive drink, I sat in the hospital lobby watching a series of surgery prep videos the doctor had sent me. I had to wash my skin with a special soap, do another colon cleanse, and take antibiotics all day Sunday. I had surgery nurses and Agent Smith Toni calling me to confirm this and that, I suddenly felt very important. Like a celebrity. I remember giggling after getting off a phone call, thinking of my new celebrity status.

When I went in for the CT scan Friday morning, the tech (who was in Enumclaw) said, "Oh, you're under the care of Dr. Kanneganti? She's the absolute best. If I ever had this happen to me, I would go directly to her. She's feisty and she gets stuff done!" Mind you Dr. K is in Tacoma. Dr. K is a celebrity, like me.

The first bad news came Saturday the 12th when Dr. K called me and told me that they would have to cancel the surgery for Monday, because the tumor was too big to operate on and was malignant and appeared to have spread to the surrounding area. She ordered a MRI scan for that Tuesday, the 15th, to get more details, but the CT scan showed one spot on my liver and several small, inconclusive spots on my lungs. (Colon cancer loves to spread to these two places first). I also had a meeting with my new oncologist that Tuesday.

At this point, I was coming down from my shock. The initial shock reminds me of when you're standing in line for that really scary rollercoaster, watching people scream and drop and zoom by. You're scared, you're aware of what's about to happen to you, and you're in line, you have been for 45 minutes, no backing out now! You're getting on that thing!

That night I told the kids and held Eleanor in my arms while she cried.

[rimeiii]

I'm watching the past GDQ Trauma Center speedruns (notably the all XS New Blood run by Thurler and the any% Under the Knife 2 run by TrjnRabbit) and my Trauma Center brain is going BRRR rn, especially as someone whose fave doctor in the entire franchise is CR-S01...

Trauma Center AU where MC is Zayne's patient and they're infected with GUILT/Neo-GUILT/Stigma/the Rosalia virus. They're desperately trying to stay alive but it's looking bleak, as some of these organisms actively harm the host - especially GUILT, which definitely counts as a bioweapon.

Or...or. Hear me out here. We're entering spoiler territory for the original Under the Knife and its remake Second Opinion so I'll put it under the cut, but imagine...

In the original Trauma Center, there are people known as Sinners, who are human hosts barely kept alive to serve as the breeding grounds for more GUILT cultivation. Canon says they're kids-teens, but what if we tweaked that around for More Pain...

What if our MC is one of those Sinners? Just barely lucid to register Zayne's presence as he desperately tries to keep them alive, using his Healing Touch to freeze their vitals as he treats whatever symptoms the GUILT inflicts onto them, until he finds a cure for the GUILT...

For added pain, I think MC should be a host for Pempti (in-universe, this strain took several separate operations to research and develop a nanomachine to aid in killing it, and it fills the lungs/liver with liquid - until it starts getting attacked, where it'll periodically release tiny organisms to inflict lacerations/create tiny tumors/drain your vitals) or Triti (one of the most annoying strains for players because it will multiply nonstop if not extracted properly, and calcification of organs doesn't sound fun either).

With MC being a host for any of those GUILT strains, the organization behind GUILT, Delphi, has MC's life as a bargaining chip. They use MC's life to basically force Zayne to work for them, otherwise the MC and the other Sinners would be killed. Pressed for time and desperate to save his love, along with realizing he's technically enabling Delphi, Zayne soldiers on through to find a cure...desperately hoping that it won't be too late, that MC will survive - even when all signs point that MC won't survive.

On a more lighthearted note, however...

Imagine MC asking if Zayne can speedrun surgery like these speedrunners, he's going to be so fucking horrified and/or offended LMAO. Mostly because the commentary is funny in the context of speedrunning, but aren't things you want your surgeon to say. Some choice quotes in the GDQ speedruns include:

"(vs the Cheir and Kyriaki dual boss in New Blood) Hey buddy can you make more lacerations? (Cheir makes more lacerations) Thanks!"

"(farming chain on Cheir lacerations, and Cheir is almost dead, still on New Blood) Doctor, please end the operation." "NO."

"So we're going to boost vitals..." "Yeah that's kinda necessary after you put the patient through 7 cardiac arrests..."

"(finishing the first operation in all any% speedruns) This is going to be the last time we're disinfecting the wound before applying the bandage. Gotta go fast!"

"Yeah so we're going to let some of these aneurysms burst..." this happens on almost every any% aneurysm operation, they're so bad i still hate the three patients brain aneurysm stage from Under the Knife 2 to this day. oh also, bringing scalpels to excise aneurysms willy nilly on the brain.

"(vs Brachion X stage, New Blood) There is no chain requirement here so you are allowed to let the toxins reach the end..."

"(vitals at 0, which is technically 0.x ingame, so the patient isn't dead yet) Nice vitals..." "The patient is alive, that's what matters!"

"Okay so ignore the glass shards in the heart for now..."

"Don't ask how an entire ribcage got stuck inside their lung."

"So, we're now operating in the back of a moving car!"

"Ironically, the best way to boost chain is to let your patients suffer."

"Welcome to the anime malpractice simulator!"

"The way to stop his crankiness is to poke him with a scalpel until he stops bleeding. (shrugs) It's medicine."

"Two malpractices make a positive, right?" "Yeahh, but we'll end up in the thousands...don't know where that bounces at."

Zayne left completely dumbfounded by the commentary. "Things you don't want to hear your surgeon say", indeed.

[cagemasterfantasy]

Hey everyone Dingeonmastertyrant here and it is with a heavy heart that I tell you I lost a best friend today my dog Skyler aka Bubba. It is extremely hard as I just got home from work and was just hit with the news. Even now as I type this I have eyes filled with tears. It is hard for me to tell this but here goes.

For the past few weeks Bubba has been acting really strangely. This morning before I went to work they took him to the ER. The last I saw him was him being loaded into the car outside my driveway before being driven off. Well... after being examined they found out he had cancer. IDK if it was in his stomach his liver his kidney whatever. Before anyone asks even if we did surgery or chemo the estimated time he would have to live is 4 weeks to 6 months and even then he wouldn't be the same. He wouldn't be able to swim to play ball or run around like he used to. I really wish I could have said goodbye to him. So for now I will be putting DND recipes on hold for right now I will probably still do DND rankings as I want to rank every single class before the next edition of DND drops. I will still do Paldea Pokedex entries but no more than that. I know everyone has been looking forward to the X and Y Pokedex Entries I was going to start on them tomorrow but..... I will start on them but give me 3 or 4 weeks to grieve as this dog in this picture is the dog that's been with me since I was 11. This is a dark time for me I lost not just a dog but my childhood friend, my best friend, my big brother, a piece of my family. I hope you are ok wherever you may be and I know you aren't suffering anymore. Thank you to whoever read all this.

Rest in piece Bubba December 16 2014- June 3 2024

May your light shine forever onwards in the dark abyss

Edit: I just found out what caused the cancer sorry for not sharing this earlier the cancer was caused by a tumor in his stomach that ruptured.

Warnings for: discussion of dieting/intentional weight loss, medical issues, eating disorders, and related topics

Here's the thing. On a general level, I don't believe in dieting. I think it's bad for you, the science shows it almost never works, it makes people miserable, it usually comes from an unhealthy place, and it encourages unhealthy behaviors. And. At the same time. I have a rare disease that could potentially have very dangerous complications if untreated/if it progresses, and it seems to be progressing. And genuine research has shown a significant correlation between developing hepatic adenomas/having more adenomas/having more growth in your adenomas and "obesity." Now, there are links between lots of things and "obesity" and often not nearly enough research is done into WHY and whether any correlations actually have anything to do with causality. And I don't fully know why obesity and hepatic adenomas are correlated, I have to talk to my hepatologist about it, though from what my dad found in his research he suspects it's a combination of adipose tissue producing more estrogen and potentially other metabolic effects (more research/answers are needed there). If someone says "being fat makes you unhealthy in x way" I always want to know the underlying mechanisms there, because it's never that simple. But the point is that it does look like, in this case, hepatic adenomas and obesity are at the very least significantly correlated.

There are not a lot of treatment options for hepatic adenomas. The first step is always going off any hormonal birth control, which I did a year ago. If things shrink, great, you can keep monitoring and hope that things stay shrinking or at least stable and probably leave it at that. If, however, things continue to grow, well that becomes concerning, because the larger the tumors are the more risk there is of them rupturing or becoming cancerous. If your tumors are larger than 5cm, like mine, and not shrinking or goodness forbid growing then just continuing to monitor may not be a safe long term solution. So you'll have to look at other treatment options, none of which are great.

The next step in trying to get them to shrink after stopping birth control is almost always weight loss. Because the only other options are a) transarterial embolization (a very gross procedure I looked up that I'm terrified of having to do in which blood flow is cut off from the tumors), b) ablation (which isn't recommended for tumors larger than 3cm which mine are), c) liver resection (which I'm pretty sure I'm not a candidate for because I have too many large tumors in too many places, and anyway is a very scary and risky surgery with months of recovery) and finally d) liver transplant (an ever scarier and riskier surgery with significant risks of mortality). And as much as I don't believe in or want to diet, the other options are worse.

Which means that it is very likely that in a few weeks, when my therapist gets back from vacation, I will be seriously attempting to lose weight for the first time since I was an anorexic teenager. And I don't want to, I so don't want to, but I suspect it's going to be the best choice out of a group of bad ones. But I'm so scared. I'm already having crazy relapse thoughts, I'm already struggling with horrible OCD food research spirals and calorie counting and thinking about food for hours and hours and hours each day. And it sucks. My hope is that it will actually get slightly better if I genuinely try to lose weight with my therapist and use a detailed meal plan, because then it will at least be set in stone and not just me panicking indecisively about everything. It'll be predetermined in therapy, so I won't have to spend hours thinking about it on my own. But I don't know, it still feels very risky for my mental health. I know how easy it is for me to obsessively count and calculate everything and how much that sucks and how much I hate it even as I can't stop myself. And I'm just. I'm just so stressed about the whole thing. Also like, it almost feels like it would be a slight betrayal of my values, because I really don't believe in dieting and I hate diet culture and love the anti-diet and fat acceptance movements. But at the same time I wouldn't be doing it to look better or whatever, I'd be doing it with the very specific goal of hopefully shrinking my tumors. And if I do go down this path and it turns out that the main reason obesity and hepatic adenomas are correlated is indeed higher estrogen in fatty tissue I'm going to talk to my doctors about monitoring my estrogen levels, so that I'm looking at the underlying cause and trying to focus on that number instead of just the number on the scale. But idk. This whole thing just. It just sucks and it's scary and I'm in awful OCD hell and I really wish my therapist wasn't away for the next week and a half.

Answers aren’t answers anymore- they are suggestions with trial and error built into the equation.

Today, I started round the clock Zofran and also need to premedicate with it 45 minutes prior to taking my cancer medication.

Trial Day One: Effectiveness still TBD

I have therapy tomorrow. I hope to be able to attend in person. This will be determined by the outcome of our experiment this evening.

There’s a girl who graduated high school in my class. We weren’t in the same social circles.

Around the same time I received my diagnosis- she received a Stage IV Ovarian Cancer diagnosis. From the few times I’ve looked at her social media, I can tell her experience is much harder than mine.

It makes me feel like a fraud.

Like I shouldn’t be upset about my treatment hiccups or even that I have cancer because her treatment is what you’d typically expect when you hear cancer- surgery, chemo, lost hair, port.

Yeah, I had surgery to ensure I didn’t get ovarian cancer (I am a carrier of the gene- surgery eliminated the possibility of a 2nd cancer), but other than that — I’ve not had chemotherapy. I take a CDK 4/6 inhibitor to block the stupid protein that creates my cancer. I take an AI (Aromatase Inhibitor) which blocks my hormones. I have been placed in medical menopause. I have tumors in my lungs, my liver, my breast and a lymph-node. But people can’t see that.

My point is morphing into two:

1. I don’t look sick

2. My treatment regiment is not as difficult

I struggle with both things, mentally.

I literally have the disease most likely to kill me, with the least aggressive treatments due to “quality of life” being the goal vs. curative treatment— but the empathy, the sadness, the support are shown to the individual who looks sick.

This is so fucked to even think or write about. 20 years ago it was probably the same thing- but you didn’t know because life wasn’t defined by “likes”, “concern”, etc. received on social media.

Anyway, I don’t want to diminish her journey, and I wish her the best. I hope she goes into remission and rings a bell.

I also wish I had a hug,

And I know my people are there- but I think they forget sometimes because I don’t look sick.

Im no expert but I'm a grad student working on a paper in this field.

Cancer is a bunch of diseases lumped togethet, so there will never be a one size fits all cure, just better and better treatments.

That said, the current treatments in the pipeline are incredible.

Cancer vaccines like the article talks about. Basically tumors exist because the immune system doesn't notice them as foreign or diseased, or it does notice but can't fight them because the tumor is actively suppressing the immune system. Cancer vaccines train your body's natural defenses to kill the cancer cells. Chefs kiss! Incredible science. Note that they surgically removed most of the tumor first in this trial, so it's a case of doing most of the work in surgery and letting your immune system do the cleanup.

Theyre finding in general that modern therapies like cancer vaccines or other immune boosting treatments work best in synchrony with other treatments (chemo, radiation, surgery) to get the last little bits that aren't taken out by surgery, or are resistant to chemo, etc. Immunotherapy doesn't necessarily do great at getting into tumors and wiping them out all on its own, but it's fantastic at killing the last remnants and prolonging remission or ensuring the cancer doesn't come back at all.

Some other cool immunotherapies and nanomedicines for cancer in the works (some are approved, some are still being developed.)

CAR T cells - remove white blood cells from the body, train them to attack the cancer and put them back in. Seriously look it up if you want your mind blown. This won the Nobel prize a few years back.

Nanocarriers for drugs- a big problem of cancer medicines is targeting - how do we kill the cancer while not harming the rest of the body too much. They're designing nano and micro scale encapsulation for drugs that get them to the cancer, either through direct chemical targeting or by taking advantage of the structural differences of tumors like blood vessels that are "leaky," meaning they let stuff through that non-tumor blood vessels don't. Some formulations are designed to decrease liver accumulation, or hide from the immune system. Early stages still but expect to see great things. They're trying everything from metal nanoparticles to cell membrane derived drug packaging to DNA origami. It's incredible.

Other immunotherapies: basically anything that activates the immune system to turn on the cancer. Everything from the aforementioned cancer vaccines, to cytokines (like hormones but for the immune system), to little "backpacks" made out of lipids that attach to tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (white blood cells that can get into the tumor) and deliver immune activating factors straight into the tumor by tagging along with cells that are going in anyways.

There's more but I have to analyze data now. Science is incredible!

The discovery represents a potential new way to recruit the immune system to fight treatment-resistant cancers using an iteration of mRNA technology and lipid nanoparticles, similar to COVID-19 vaccines, but with two key differences: use of a patient’s own tumor cells to create a personalized vaccine, and a newly engineered complex delivery mechanism within the vaccine.

Within 48 hours, the four human study participants showed remarkable results: their immune systems went into turbo cancer-destroying mode. And without surgery, radiation, or dangerous chemotherapy.

Folks, we may have a cure for cancer within your lifetime.
