Last year, I had the opportunity to meet and listen to one of The University of Georgia’s greatest running backs in history, Herschel Walker. Being the UGA fan that I am, I was a little star-struck when meeting the 1982 Heisman Trophy winner. He worked with a medical agency touring Department of Defense locations while promoting the ideals of seeking mental health care when needed. Mr. Walker cared so deeply about advocating to apply for treatment, he went as far as self-disclosing with our…

Cells age, they can grow old or be damaged, which leads to deactivation or dying of a cell and those being replaced by new ones. However, sometimes this order is being disturbed, which makes the old and damaged cells not to die and new cell keep reproducing even though it is not necessary. The…
