Yes, according to the CDC, five things cause most of the deaths in the United States.
I found it funny that alcohol is not mentioned in the unintentional injuries section. At least, it's recognized as a cause of 1 in 4 spinal cord injuries.
More later...enjoy your weekend wherever you are. It's gorgeous (except for that pollen) in RehabLand.

In the news
It's a little early, but there were a few interesting things in the news lately.
Makes you wonder...
Can diabetic crises be related to running out of food at the end of the month for poor families? Some researchers say it just might be.
Brain death in the news
While we've been hearing about brain death in the news lately, I ran into this interesting article (from August 2013) recently about The Conundrum of Organ Donation.
It makes you consider more than just brain death, but how things happen on that road.
From the Genetic files
I ran into this interesting article on spinal muscular atrophy in the genetic diseases section at NIH.
Snow days
We have had our share of winter weather lately. Here's a list I'll have to use on Bubba for the next snow day.
