Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-NJ) has tested positive for COVID-19 after sheltering in place with fellow lawmakers. Business Insider reports the 75-year-old cancer survivor is starting her third term. She announced her diagnosis on Twitter early Monday afternoon. Watson Coleman tweeted that she'd sheltered in place at the Capitol during Wednesday's attack, with 'several colleagues who refused to wear masks.' Another representative said last week that 'about half' of the 300 or 400 lawmakers who crowded into a secure location during the siege refused to wear masks. Watson Coleman says she's isolating at home, and while she's experiencing mild symptoms, she remains in good spirits.
A new analysis from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows cancer can take years off a person's life--literally. UPI reports the analysis, released Thursday, says surviving cancer 'ages' a person's heart by up to nine years. Based on their overall health, adult male cancer survivors were found to have hearts that appeared 8 1/2 years older than their actual age. As for women, females who survived the disease were found to have hearts that appeared to be 6 1/2 years older. Past research has found that compared to non-cancer survivors, adult cancer survivors are at high risk for heart disease due to greater excess heart age.
Treating cancer with chemotherapy can save your life, but at the same time, it can trash your hair--and everyone can see it. Many women choose to cover post-chemo hair loss and growout with scarves or hats. But there's no law that says you have to! According to Allure, ovarian cancer survivor Susan Chinn says she quickly got fed up with the discomfort and complication of wearing head coverings. According to Allure, she did something different. She embraced the look and returned to work--despite her trepidation. I remember returning to work with my dome shining bright...self-conscious and convinced that all eyes were focused on my bald head. Chinn says the most important things to have are a sense of humor and good hair products for every step along the way.
