The room was silent except for the hum of the machines, the rhythmic blip of the heart monitor, and the quiet cadence of my dad’s breathing. With no hope of recovery, life support was about to be terminated. I was spending a few last moments with him. I was 15. Suddenly, I became acutely aware of my own heartbeat. It was in perfect sync with dad's heart monitor. Stunned, I realized several profound... 5/15/2019 7:00:00 AM

When a person runs cold, the body is trying to communicate that something in the production line isn’t right. Typically, body temperature ranges from 97 F to 99 F for adults, while children have a higher body temperature ranging from 97.9 F to 100.4 F. Everyone’s body temperature... 5/14/2019 7:00:00 AM
