The CDC is investigating an alarming new trend that's sending people to the hospital across the country for lung issues. Doctors are reporting a spike in severe pulmonary illnesses possibly relating to e-cigarette products or vaping. There are now more than 150 cases in at least 16 states. One of those cases was 18-year-old Chance Ammirata, who ended up in a Florida hospital after he felt pain in his chest. “It was almost as if I was having a heart attack and I couldn't breathe,” he describes. It turns out his lung collapsed, which doctors say could have happened from something he inhaled. The teen blames vaping, which he started about a year and a half ago. “I didn't think vaping could have that effect on my lungs,” he says. In Texas, 17-year-old Trystan Zohfeld spent 18 days in the hospital and lost nearly 30 pounds after his lung failed. His doctors also believe vaping could have played a factor. According to the CDC, since June vaping has been linked to more than 153 mysterious cases of lung disease, spreading from coast to coast, in at least 16 states. The common link: vaping products that contain either nicotine or THC. “We've seen the damage and the dangers of nicotine addiction, but now, we see the possibility of lung problems and others,” says John Schachter with the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids. Health advocates are pushing for the FDA to implement tougher restrictions, including a ban on flavored e-cigs, saying they target children. “Why are we waiting, God forbid, for a fatality? These are children. It's our job to protect them,” says Meredith Berkman, with Parents Against Vaping E-Cigarettes (PAVE). The American Vaping Association issued a statement saying in part, "the evidence continues to point to street-bought vaping cartridges containing THC or synthetic drugs as being the cause of these illnesses.” Meanwhile, Ammirata hopes telling his story will lead to more awareness.“I have thousands of messages of people telling me they quit due to my story, but more importantly due to their bravery,” the teen says. 2075

A House panel passed a bill Wednesday to authorize additional funding for the September 11th Victims Compensation Fund until 2090, one day after comedian Jon Stewart sharply criticized members of Congress for not attending a subcommittee hearing on the issue and gave an emotional plea to extend the funding.The bill passed on a voice vote without opposition and now heads to the House floor for the full chamber to vote. The vote comes after the fund's administrator announced awards for pending and future claims would have to be cut unless Congress acted."Every sick responder and survivor should be treated with the same dignity and compassion," said House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler, a Democrat from New York. "All responders and survivors, whether they got sick in 2015 or will get sick in 2025 or 2035, should be properly compensated. Congress must act to make that happen."The current law was renewed in 2015 and is set to expire in 2020. At the time of its last renewal, Congress appropriated .6 billion to the fund, bringing the total appropriated amount of the fund 1096

WINNETKA, Ill. – Nearly 27 million American adults have low vision or blindness. As baby boomers age, experts expect a major one in three will experience vision loss, a condition linked to depression. It’s a tough transition leaving many in despair. In recent years, Illinois resident Richard Englund’s vision began fading. “It's a whole new world. You know that you're dealing with something you've never dealt with before,” said Englund. Diagnosed with macular degeneration at 47, the world he knew lost focus. He is now legally blind. “The worst thing that you've finally come to terms with is you can't drive anymore,” said Englund. For Angie, a retired nurse, a third failed corneal transplant meant losing her sight but not her sense of humor. “Not being able to see faces. I mean right now all you guys look like Brad Pitt,” said Angie. But it took time for her to come to terms with it. “I felt like I was walking dead,” said Angie. “Somebody hit me in the stomach and it just was wrong.” Loss of mobility and independence is difficult and statistically, people with visual impairment or blindness have a 200 percent increase in the risk of clinical depression. As baby boomers age, the number of Americans with low vision is expected to skyrocket from 2.9 million in 2010 to 5 million in 2030. The key, say public health officials, is to reach out for help early. For the last century, Hadley, a non-profit organization has assisted with the scary transition of losing sight. “We basically teach people how to continue to live their lives,” said Julie Tye, Hadley’s executive director. Hadley is providing online resources, support and in-person consultation. All of it is free of cost. “Maybe it's something as simple as contrast, maybe it's something as simple as using their smartphone to magnify what they're reading,” said Tye. Englund says relearning independence is tough at any age, but not impossible. “I am not going to let the fact that I can't see keep me from doing anything. I can do anything as long as I put my mind to it,” he said. Angie insists it’s just another phase of life. “You realize that you go on, you know, it's another journey you're on. You're going to do better, because you have to.” 2243
