Kiley Winkelhake has been living with anxiety since she can remember."I would go to daycare, and they would have to rip me off my mom because of my separation anxiety. I would cry every day; I was in hysterics," Winkelhake recalls.At the age of 7, she started seeing a psychiatrist and was put on her first medication. By the time she was 12, she was diagnosed with depression and tried just about every legal medication for kids. "I got super depressed and really hopeless," Winkelhake says. "I didn't think I was going to make it to graduate at all. I was so sad, and I was pushing everyone away. I was really not healthy... at all."She felt like she was drowning. She says the voices around her were muffled, and mundane tasks like getting out of bed were suddenly very scary. Winkelhake had become suicidal. "I just felt like I was a burden to everyone, and I think a lot of the time when you're depressed and when you die by suicide, you're thinking you will make the people that love you be in less pain, and so when I was suicidal, I just was like 'Well, I think it will make my parent's life easier, and my friend's life easier if I just... died,'" she says. Through the help of friends, she connected with therapy, and with art as her outlet, Winkelhake made it to graduation. She says she's feeling much better today."I'm 20 now, and I never really thought I would be 20," she says. But I'm alive, and it's kind of amazing, I guess."She knows anxiety and depression will forever be a part of her, and learning how to live with it is her current mission."It's not about getting rid of the pain or the illness. It's about learning how to control it, and not let it control you anymore," Winkelhake says.We often hear about those who have taken their life, but health professionals say a majority of people struggling with mental health issues are able to find happiness again."If there's any way that what I can say can impact someone and keep them alive, or help them get help, then I want to be able to do that," Winkelhake says."What we know is that suicide is preventable. If people get access to resources, the crises in their life that are leading them to be suicidal, often pass," Julie Cerel, with American Association of Suicidology, said says.National organizations like American Association of Suicidology and Sources of Strength say it's important to pay attention to people like Kiley because she's living proof that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. "We can wrestle with mental illness. We can wrestle with really difficult things in our lives and get through that, and still really live a healthy life," Sources of Strength Executive Director Scott LoMurray says.Sources of Strength is a program aimed at empowering teenagers and young adults to seek connections and healthy behavior. The organization offers support for young people dealing with depression and anxiety. But what makes it unique from other organizations is its upstream approach to prevent students from feeling suicidal in the first place."We spend a lot more of our time actually focusing on strength, focusing on resiliency, focusing on recovery, focusing on health and help and what those things look like," LoMurray says.One strategy is teaching students about coping mechanisms. Sources of strength calls it "protective" factors, which includes family support, positive friends, mentors, healthy activities, generosity, spirituality, medical access, and mental health."That might be listening to music, that might be talking to a friend, that might be a mindfulness practice or a gratitude practice where every night you write down three things you're grateful for. Those things actually have really profound impacts on our brain," LoMurray explains.LoMurray says volunteering and healthy exercise can also put somebody in a better head space, giving them a sense of purpose and worth. But in the end, there isn't one answer to solving mental health. It's a complicated issue, which is why both LoMurray and Kiley are thankful for -- what they say has been -- a recent culture change around the topic."I've definitely seen a shift in people talking about mental health more, and embracing taking care of yourself and not being as judgmental on taking medication," Winkelhake says."The reality is, being very clear and direct with someone and saying, 'I'm really worried about you... that you might be thinking about suicide,' is actually a relief for people who are thinking about suicide. If someone is that desperate, it's likely suicide is already on their mind," Cerel says.Winkelhake says she appreciates the conversation because she knows she's not alone. "I think it's cool to see people that are alive living with this illness because we talk so much about the people that pass away from the illness, but we don't talk about the people that are living with it and learning how to live with it," she said.She says it's helpful to know everyone is more accepting of the illness. Winkelhake now lives her life using art as her solace and finding a reason to be happy one day at a time."I just hope that I can live in an honest way that brings happiness to me and the people around me," Winkelhake says.

John Pregulman is on a mission to ensure that those who survived the Holocaust are not forgotten. Pregulman is occupied with documenting the estimated 200,000 still-living Holocaust survivors. “Their biggest fear is that they’ll be forgotten,” Pregulman said as he was surrounded by hundreds of portraits he took of survivors taped and pinned onto four walls.Among those Pregulman has documented was Mildred Ferro, 93, who said she was age 11 when she moved to the United States. Pregulman recently visited a senior living community to capture Ferro’s picture and story.Pregulman’s became motivated when he learned that many survivors worry that their story will be forgotten in history. What started as a one-time gig, taking photos at an event outside of Chicago five years ago, has turned into almost an obsession.“I took their pictures, they shared their stores, and I just became completely enthralled with these amazing people who I expected to be sad and unable to get past what had happened, and yet they were the happiest most positive and accomplished people I had met in a very long time,” he said.In hearing their stories, Pregulman and his wife soon learned a disturbing statistic: roughly one-in-three Holocaust survivors live in poverty.“Dignity had to be the centerpiece of everything,” his wife Amy Israel Pregulman said. “They deserve that.”They’ve started a non-profit called 1407

In recent years, healing and meditation has become an important part of Janea Escobedo’s life.“It’s just very relaxing to be under the trees to watch the leaves, and hike around to see the wildlife. It’s, it’s very healing,” she says. Escobedo was diagnosed with inflammatory breast cancer.“In February of 2017, I was happy-go-lucky turned into a cancer patient with a very aggressive rare disease that I didn’t know what to do with,” she recalls. Dr. Radhika Acharya, the medical director of the UCHealth Cancer Center in Highlands Ranch, Colorado, has been assisting Escobedo in her cancer journey.“[Inflammatory breast cancer] makes up just about 0.2 to 0.5 percent of all breast cancers, so it’s very rare, and it involves the skin that overlies the breast,” Dr. Acharya says.She says inflammatory breast cancer is so rare, it’s a challenging cancer to diagnose. “I think what’s difficult is sometimes it gets underdiagnosed or not diagnosed correctly because it looks like mastitis, which is swelling of the breast from an infection, or cellulitis, which is swelling of the skin or infection of the skin," she explains. "And a lot of women can experience that after pregnancy or when they’re breastfeeding or just with trauma."As uncommon as it may be, Escobedo knew the symptoms from a news segment she had seen years prior. “Honestly didn’t feel sick, didn’t think anything was going on, but I had that itch,” Escobedo says.She thought that itch was simply dry skin. However, after a couple weeks, it was still itchy so Escobedo decided to visit the doctor. An MRI showed nothing, but a biopsy proved it was inflammatory breast cancer. “With inflammatory breast cancer, 9 times out of 10 there will be no lump,” Escobedo says.The potential for a lump is just one symptom out of many for the disease. Other possible symptoms include itchiness, swelling of the breast, dimpling or thickening of the skin (like the skin of an orange), a discolored or inverted nipple, or the breast can get warm. Considering it’s so difficult to discover, the cancer is often very advanced by the time it’s diagnosed. Escobedo says she had to go through super intense chemo, surgery and radiation. However, genetic testing helped guide doctors and Escobedo to make the right decisions for her body.“Genetic testing more and more is becoming part of the data points in considering a patients’ diagnosis and optimal treatment,” UCHealth Genetic counselor Kristina Markey says.Oncologists say if you think you could be experiencing any of these symptoms, you should see your doctor right away. “Be persistent, and don’t just sort of say ‘it will get better’. If it doesn’t get better, go see your doctor again,” Dr. Acharya says.Escobedo will have to undergo chemo every three weeks for the rest of her life. Some days, she says she can barely drag herself down the stairs, but in the end, she chooses to stay positive and keep going.“When I wake up in the morning and I’m alive, then I just need to live the day," Escobedo says. "And I have a strong faith in God, I have a very strong family bond, and I will be on chemo forever, but the good part is that forever may be much longer.”If you’d like to reach out to the journalist for this story, please email elizabeth.ruiz@scripps.com 3281

LAS VEGAS — A Las Vegas woman is suing the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) after she claims she was forced to strip down and remove a "feminine hygiene product" at a Tulsa, Oklahoma airport.According to the complaint, the woman — who has a metal hip implant — was boarding a flight through TSA pre-check through Tulsa International Airport on Mother's Day. Knowing her hip implant would set off a metal detector, she asked to be screened with a body scanner.After she went through the body scanner, TSA agents informed the woman that she would need to submit to a pat down, which the woman agreed to.During the pat down, the agent discovered a "common feminine hygiene product" that she was wearing under her clothes. She was also told that she would need to be escorted to a private room in order to be "cleared."Once in the room, the woman was told to "clear the area" where she was wearing her feminine hygiene product. It's then that she claims TSA agents told her she would need to take down her pants and underwear.The woman initially objected, but later did remove her clothes after being told by agents that she was required to do so.The TSA never requires passengers to submit themselves to a strip search, according to a statement from the agency.After removing her clothes, the woman says she asked agents for permission to leave four times before she was allowed to leave the room..The woman says she is suffering severe emotional distress and says the search violated her rights.TSA and provided the following statement:"Due to pending litigation, we cannot comment on the specifics of this case. TSA does not conduct strip searches and is committed to ensuring the security of travelers, while treating passengers of all ages with dignity and respect. 1791
