Packers 1:00 PM Dolphins Rams [email protected] CELEBRITY NEWS, ENTERTAINMENT, MUSIC Brittany Maynard “why I’m choosing to die on my own” 29 year old, Brittany Maynard is known for living a fearless lifestyle, running marathons, traveling, and even climbing Mount Kili- manjaro. Back in April she was told that she only has six weeks to live because she is suffering with brain cancer (Tumor). Maynard intends to end her own life with medication prescribed by her doctor, and she wants to make it clear that it’s not suicide. In her interview she tells them that she wants to live and she wishes there was a cure, but there’s not. When she recently went back to the hospital they discovered that her tumor has grown even larger, so Maynard and her family decided to move to Portland so that she could have access to Oregon’s Death with Dignity Act. She wants to be here to celebrate her husband’s birthday (October 30) and she is expected to pass on Nov 1 (that’s the date she chose) because she is getting sicker, and dealing with more pain and seizures. - by Miay Paden Music and the Artists Dat Boi T was Born & Raised in Houston, Texas in the Neighborhood of Second Ward.

What’s Hot on Twitter - Aaliyah Caldwell Ebola update The *Texas patient’s health has taken a turn for the worse since last week. It has been said that ZMapp is not being used to treat pa- tient, Thomas Eric Duncan. Supplies for this drug have run out, officials say. This drug contains three antibodies to the Ebola Virus. It was previously used to treat the first two US health care workers who became sick with Ebola while working in West Africa, but who are now recovered. It is still unclear whether the drug works to treat Ebola infections. A homeless man may have had contact with Duncan. The authorities finally caught this man yesterday and he’s shown no symptoms of Ebola and is considered as a low-risk individual. Nonetheless this man is among 50 others that these officials want to monitor daily. Since people have learned of this Texas case calls and emails have drastically increased about questions of Ebola. This ongo- ing outbreak has sickened thousands and since early 2014 more than 3,300 have died. The Texas patient developed symptoms four days after arriving to Texas from Liberia.

He’s been set to return to the U.S. for treatment but as of yesterday October 8, 2014, Mr. Duncan has passed away from this deadly virus. *as of Oct.8th, after this article was written, the patient has passed away from the virus.
