One of the worst things about it is the loneliness. It was 2018, and I was 26 years old at the time. For years, doctors had been trying to get to the bottom of some breathing issues I had. I’d already been administered every allergy test available, and I underwent a sinus surgery to improve airflow through my nasal passage. But still, I was prone to getting bronchitis, having shortness of breath, and, even with daily physical exercise, I had the lung capacity of someone double my age. My primary doctor finally decided to set me up for a chest X-ray.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds.

Cats of Kansas City

Now that we have all had our fill of grilled burgers and fireworks, let's look at some unsung Americans--cats. Did you know that there are nearly 100 million cats living in the United States? I'm not sure who counted all of them, but that's a lot of cats. Enough to sway an election were they given the right to vote (which, of course, they should be). Unfortunately, many of those cats don't have a place to call home. Here are six cats, all in the greater Kanas City area, who would love it if you might consider giving them a bed, a litter box, and a bowl full of kibble.
