With November being "National COPD Awareness Month,” experts urge patients who suffer from Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease to verify their treatment plans, and to be diligent about COVID-19 precautions.Seventy-one-year-old Janice Cotton is a self-proclaimed "advocate for COPD-ERS." Her advocacy is all over YouTube. She says, “Oh, I think so!.. I think I’m a YouTube star.”Cotton said she likes to tell her story, and while full of personality, her road to advocacy wasn't easy.“In 1997, my mom died from COPD,” Cotton said. “We didn’t know what it was. We had no idea. The last thing she said was, ‘Janice, please stop smoking.’”She said she smoked a pack a day for more than 40 years. Even after being diagnosed with COPD, she says she still smoked.“I didn’t quit smoking when he told me, because when I went into the office to get the test, I was told you’ll be dead in 10 years so I said, ‘What the heck? I may as well keep smoking,’” Cotton said.Eventually, she quit, and now urges others to do the same.Does Cotton still crave tobacco?“Oh no way Jose. Not at all; I don’t crave it,” Cotton said. “I don’t think about it. I tell people who are thinking about smoking, I say, 'Put a straw in your mouth, toothpick, something, anything but a cigarette.'”“This is a treatable disease,” said Dr. Tom Corbridge, pulmonologist, a faculty member at the University of Northwestern near Chicago, and GlaxoSmithKline medical expert. “It is a progressive illness but it's also a treatable illness and the sooner you get in, the sooner you connect with a trusted healthcare provider, the sooner you can get help to restore some of the things you’ve lost.”He says COPD is an umbrella term for chronic lung disease, which include things like emphysema and chronic bronchitis. He says there are 27 million patients with COPD in the U.S. and it's the fourth-leading cause of death.“The main symptom that COPD causes (is) shortness of breath," Corbridge said. It's "hallmark symptom that would be worse with exertion, but also cough, raising of phlegm or mucous and wheezing are really the hallmarks of the disease.”Those symptoms, he said, can be complicated by COVID-19.“The pandemic has impacted my life and my disease management,” Cotton said. “So many of us were scared (of) death and afraid and didn’t want to go anywhere, didn’t want anybody to come see you.”In a recent GlaxoSmithKline study, 83% of people living with COPD agree that COVID-19 has been a wake-up call about the vulnerability of the illness. But, Cotton said she's using her voice to make sure all COPD patients are diligent about things like face masks, hand washing and social distancing. She also recommends having what she calls an "action plan" with your doctor.“I want people to understand and realize that knowledge is power. The more you investigate and research, the better off you’ll be when it comes to managing COPD,” Cotton said.Doctors say the most important aspect is staying in touch with your physicians and staying on top of your symptoms. 3035

by taking his daughter during a dispute with the child's mother.Robert Peeples, 39, was arrested Thursday night and charged with aggravated assault and kidnapping.

on Fulton Street: use the hand sanitizers on the tables.“People just need to come up, sanitize their hands, and grab as many books as they can,” Calhoun said. “This is not a book exchange, so if you grab books, they’re yours from now on.”Calhoun, who teaches fourth grade at Homer Elementary School, transformed her large porch into a library. There are bookcases filled with hundreds of books that she got locally.“The proximity is just wonderful. I mean we’re right across the street from the beautiful school,” said superintendent Scott Salow. “When Ashley sent me a text over the weekend and said, ‘hey can I have access to get these books?’ I said, ‘absolutely.’”They went and grabbed some “goodies,” he said.Since then, the community has donated notebooks, pens, pencils and nonperishable foods like pasta, ramen noodles and canned goods.“I appreciate it’s a small town and people rally together,” Salow said. “Homer is a unique place. It really is a special place from taking care of our local businesses that have been shut down and impacted certainly our kids.”Salow said it was difficult when he told his staff and teachers last Friday that they had to close the school due to the coronavirus pandemic.Their first thoughts were about the children, Calhoun said.“It was devastating,” said Calhoun. “These are our kids and to know that they wouldn’t have the safety of being able to come to school every day and see their friends every day, just being a part of their lives every day, it was devastating for all of us.”Salow said the school is doing its best to meet the children’s needs, like preparing 200 meals a day through a delivery service. They’re hoping that Calhoun’s porch library will help to meet their educational needs while the schools remain closed.Reading is important, she said.“We have a sign out there: ‘Readers make Leaders,’” Calhoun said. “So, you need to be reading. Reading science books, fun books, social studies books, online recipes, everything.”This story was originally published by Lauren Edwards at WXMI. 2048

With several games postponed this weekend, MLB will need to reschedule contests at some point to fit in its condensed 60-game schedule. In an effort not to exhaust players from squeezing in makeup games, MLB will allow for seven-inning doubleheaders effective Saturday.The MLB Players’ Association joined the MLB in making Friday’s announcement.“Given the frequency of doubleheaders, the effects of doubleheaders on rosters, and the need to reschedule games due to dynamic circumstances, both the Clubs and the Players have determined that this step promotes player health and safety,” MLB and the MLBPA said in a joint statement.If games as part of a doubleheader are tied after seven innings, MLB’s new extra inning rule of placing a base runner at second base will be in effect.Seven-inning twin bills are common in the minors and other levels of baseball.An onslaught of doubleheaders may be necessary this season given that just one week into the coronavirus-shortened season, both the Marlins and Cardinals have dealt with multiple COVID-19 cases forcing the postponements. The Marlins have not played since last Sunday and are not scheduled to return to play until Tuesday.The outbreak involving the Marlins also forced the Phillies to postpone four of their games this week. A scheduled contest between the Brewers and Cardinals was postponed for tonight. 1371
