Kidney transplants save lives, offering hope to those with failing kidneys. But what exactly happens during this life-changing procedure? A kidney transplant involves replacing a diseased kidney with a healthy one from a donor. This can come from either a living or deceased donor. The new kidney takes over the job of filtering blood, removing waste, and balancing fluids. Transplants can drastically improve quality of life, reducing the need for dialysis and allowing for a more normal lifestyle. However, it's not without challenges. Patients must take immunosuppressive drugs to prevent their body from rejecting the new organ. These medications come with their own set of side effects. Understanding the ins and outs of kidney transplants can help patients and their families make informed decisions.

Increasing state cigarette taxes has proven to be an effective policy to decrease smoking rates, and it appears that is also true in Kentucky. Nearly 30 percent of Kentucky adults smoked in 2011, two years after the legislature had doubled the cigarette tax to 60 cents a pack. Following a 50-cent increase to $1.10 in 2018, the state’s adult smoking rate fell to 17.4% in 2022, the last year for which a rate is available.

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said. Then, the city sweeps the encampment again, and they get to come back to the shelter for another 30 days, Prosser explained. This process can repeat multiple times.
