CHICAGO, Ill. – For the first time, researchers say there’s a real connection between people not getting enough sleep and them craving calorie-packed junk food. For graduate student Daria Porter, sleep is often in short supply.“To function, I drink coffee and then during the day, I'll drink tea,” said Porter. But not getting enough rest can also lead her to making unhealthy choices.“Sometimes we'll run down here and grab a sweet snack if we're really struggling all of us,” Porter said. We all crave junk food from time to time, but now scientists say they might know more about how your nose plays an important role in why you reach for that doughnut when you’re tired. “So, the sense of smell helps us to decide what to eat and what not to eat,” said Thorsten Kahnt, an Assistant Professor of Neurology at Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine.Kahnt just completed research looking what happens in the brain when study participants got a normal night’s sleep, versus just four hours, and how that affected their food choices.“So, when people are sleep deprived, they changed the type of food that they ate,” said Kahnt. The research indicated that when tired, the brain goes into hyperdrive – causing an enhanced response to high fat, calorie dense foods.“So, they ate food like donuts or chocolate chips that are richer in calories,” said Kahnt. In addition, scientists scanned people’s neurological responses to food and non-food odors when they were sleep deprived versus being well-rested.“The part of the brain that responds or processes food or odors in general,” said Kahnt. “That has a stronger response to food and non-food odors when you're sleep deprived.”The research provides new insights into the biological connection between sleep habits and weight gain. And how understanding that connection can help thwart making bad choices.Researchers say the best bet is to put that snack down and instead hit the sack. But in the absence of a good night’s rest, they say – lead with your nose, away from temptation. 2055

CLEVELAND — Chuck and Angie Graham have been married 33 years.They have been through a lot together in that time, but perhaps their biggest challenge yet came in January.The Diagnosis"I woke up in the morning to go to work and I lost my balance a couple times and fell down," Chuck said.Angie said she heard something and yelled up to him if he was OK."He said he was falling and couldn't walk," Angie recalled, tearing up.An ambulance ride, and several tests and scans later, the Grahams had their answer — and it was devastating."She said that I had a very aggressive tumor in my brain and it was malignant," Chuck said.Such a diagnosis can make you feel so helpless, Angie said.The DenialThey say the next blow was just as unexpected.Their health insurance provider denied covering the procedure Chuck's neurosurgeon recommended to treat his cancerous brain tumor, saying it was "experimental" and "investigational."The laser ablation procedure was FDA-cleared a decade ago, but that does not guarantee coverage.The Grahams appealed the decision. Chuck was prepped for surgery hoping for a last-minute approval that never came, and he was sent home."Just the look on his face, broke my heart," Angie said."He's a veteran. He's a dad. He's a husband, a grandpa and a friend who would do anything for you. How could they not value him?"Fighting BackChuck's family took action.His daughter Jen Koons led the charge."They've just always been there for us," Jen said.And now she wanted to be there for them.Jen turned to the power of social media.She had previously sent the letter to the company before posting it to Facebook.It began: "An open letter to SummaCare and our health insurance industry..."Jen wrote about her father's fight with brain cancer and health insurance.The letter continued: "I hope thousands of people read this letter and understand that our physicians do not get to decide what's best for us, insurance companies do."Her post was shared nearly 3,000 times. Hundreds commented. Her message resonated.Fighting Back"I would say don't give up," Jen said.She learned about the right to an external review. It is a free service all health plan issuers must provide once the internal appeals process has been exhausted.An independent organization reviewed Chuck's case and overturned the denial.Two weeks after he had been sent home from the hospital, Chuck got the surgery his doctor had recommended."I just think we would've had a whole different scenario today if he hadn't had that surgery," Angie said.The external reviewer found Chuck's procedure "medically necessary" and "beneficial" for his condition."I just want people to understand their rights and to find their voice," Jen saidChuck's tumor is shrinking, and Jen is happy how things turned out for her dad, but angry, she says, for the people who don't have someone to advocate for them."There's how many people who go home and think, 'Oh, this is just the way it is,' " she said.In her open letter she wrote, "People deserve better. People deserve to count on their health insurance. They are more than a premium payment."Chuck's provider called the procedure "experimental and investigational." It was FDA-cleared a decade ago, but that does not guarantee coverage.There are not clear guidelines as to what defines "experimental and investigational."It can create a gray area where patients seeking innovative uses for a procedure are caught up."I'd like to see legislation around experimental procedures," said Tracy H. Porter of Cleveland State University.She said she'd like to see clarification and rules put in place, like with pre-existing conditions."I would also like to see something where we're educating patients more on their rights," Porter said.That is why Chuck and his family said they wanted to share their story; they want to help others navigate the often murky waters of a diagnosis and a denial.Jen has kept meticulous track of her father's paperwork. She has two bulky binders filled with research, correspondence with doctors, the hospital, insurance and notes from outside agencies.WEWS did reach out to SummaCare for this story.They provided us with this statement:"First and foremost, at SummaCare, we want what is best for our members in all cases. In accordance with federal privacy laws, we cannot discuss the specific medical care or associated claims of any of our members."ResourcesJen said she also found helpful resources through the 4465

DENVER, Colorado — The body of the 7-year-old boy found dead inside a Denver storage shed last month was encased in concrete, two law enforcement sources have confirmed to KMGH television station.The state of Caden McWilliams’ body when it was found was first reported by The Denver Post and confirmed by KMGH via law enforcement sources from different agencies who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the investigation is ongoing.The coroner’s office has not formally identified the boy as McWilliams, but law enforcement authorities did so last week when they announced the arrest of his mother, 43-year-old Elisha Pankey, in the case.Pankey was charged Monday morning with child abuse resulting in death and abuse of a corpse in the case. She turned herself in to police last Wednesday.The boy’s body was discovered in a storage unit in the 5000 block of E. Evans Avenue in Denver on Dec. 23, but court documents and police have said the boy could have died as early as last May. Police and Denver Public Schools have indicated the boy missed the last week of school in May.The boy’s body was discovered inside the storage unit after Aurora police asked Denver police to help in a missing persons case involving McWilliams on Dec. 23. Aurora officers had arrested Pankey a day earlier on suspicion of drug possession charges.Pankey’s husband, Leland Pankey, was in court last week on charges that he strangled his wife in 2017. Leland Pankey was arrested on Dec. 21 – about a year after that original incident allegedly occurred. 1557
