  Marijuana Linked to Testicular Cancer

  $0$0Smoking cigarettes has been linked to lung cancer, but did you know that smoking marijuana has been linked to testicular cancer? While doing my Monday morning surf, I came across a Reuters article by Jeremy Laurance, featured on The Independent Health and Wellbeing website in the UK. The article states that scientists have determined that smoking cannabis (marijuana, hashish) can more than double the risk of testicular cancer. It says tar in spiffs have 50 percent more carcinogens than cigarettes.$0$0People in the OK and other Western countries have more of less disregarded any warnings about marijuana over the years, and even some parents here in the United States have considered smoking pot to be harmless. But the article talks about a soaring rate of testicular cancer in the UK, linked to increased popularity of the drug, despite it being illegal..$0$0What's even more frightening is that researchers in this country have determined that there is a 70 percent greater risk of testicular cancer among men who smoke regularly. The article sites a study of 369 men with testicular cancer who shared their history of marijuana use. Smokers had twice the risk of those who had never used the drug.$0$0You might say that cancer is genetic, or that some other cause is to blame, but the study stated, "Cannabis was linked with testicular cancer independently of smoking, drinking and family history." Moreover, the strain of the cancer, non-serminona, is particularly associated with marijuana users, it says, and strikes younger men. It the type found in 40 percent of the incidents of testicular cancer.$0$0You get the idea about the cancer risks, but still Americans in general seem to view marijuana as a kind of benign agent, a harmless alternative to other illegal drugs. This attitude is particularly troubling because it allows us to let down our guard and ignore the warning signs.$0$0If you are a marijuana user you might want to consider getting checked out by a doctor, as this seemingly "hidden" risk is now in the open. There are, of course, other health risk factors involved with smoking marijuana that are well documented. The drug is not harmless, and therefore any use has its possible negative ramifications aside from the fact that it is illegal. Take heed.$0$0$0$0$0$0$0$0$0Ned Wicker is the Addictions Recovery Chaplain at Waukesha Memorial Hospital Lawrence Center He author's a website for addiction support:$0$0Drug-Addiction-Support.org$0$0Learn more about Marijuana$0$0$0$0$0$0$0Alcoholism-Support.org/Alcohol-Intoxication.html

  Marriage and Alcoholism

  $0$0Alcoholism in marriage and divorce - the modern dance that Gloria and Chuck are doing. There's one thing for sure that you can say about Gloria and her ex-husband Chuck, they both know how to keep the fight going long after the initial disagreement has been forgotten. The divorce isn't final yet, mainly because there are more punches to be thrown and more hurt to inflict.$0$0The kids, well, they really don't count anyway, except that both parents believe firmly that the other isn't fit to be a parent. Solomon will have to get out his sword and cut them all in two.$0$0It wasn't always like this and there's certainly enough blame to go around. In their heart of hearts they might be able to face the truth of the situation, but denial is a strong habit and so when faced with the prospect of having to take personal responsibility, it is an easier path to blame the other. There were the good days, but those are a distant memory. The good days were before the alcohol took over.$0$0It's not like the two of them became raging alcoholics over night. They had common interests, common friends and that was enough for a while. Gloria realized that she couldn't really handle drinking, mainly because she said if you put one beer in front of her the case would disappear.$0$0She'll tell you that now, even though she says she hasn't been drinking. She'll even admit to being an alcoholic, because she believes she has all of the symptoms of alcoholism. However, she has never received treatment and she doesn't go to meetings. Chuck, on the other hand, is the opposite. He doesn't have a problem.$0$0Things started falling apart when Gloria stopped her drinking habits entirely. She said that she couldn't have any alcohol, so she said she stopped. Chuck, however, continued his drinking, every day. Gloria could live with it, for a while, that is until she determined that Chuck's drinking became more important than the kids, or their marriage, or going to work in the morning.$0$0That led to arguments, bitter feelings and resentment. Chuck felt he was being unfairly target by his wife, and Gloria thought Chuck was a drunk who needed treatment. The kids, of course, got to watch all 15 rounds.$0$0Finally Gloria decided she had gone far enough. The ultimatum got handed down-either he quit drinking, or he would have to leave. Chuck insisted the house was his, so she would have to leave. She did, with the kids, and so the legal fighting began. The pawns in the deal were the kids, who are the stakes in the divorce proceedings.$0$0Everything is an issue, as the two parents fight. It's not a matter of doing the right thing; it's a zero sum game of darts. He wants 50 percent custody and she wants full custody. The finger pointing and verbal barrage carries over into every conversation Gloria has. She is willing to fight to the finish, even though she complains that she doesn't have the money to keep the attorney on the attack.$0$0Chuck isn't going to stop drinking, because he doesn't have a problem. Gloria may not be drinking, but she holds firmly to a perceived moral high ground. They feed off of each other's anger.$0$0Is alcohol the sole reason why this family has been shattered? There are other factors, but alcohol certainly brought all of the problems to the surface. If one of the parties is a slave to alcohol, alcohol will do the reasoning. Alcohol will win this divorce proceeding. All other parties involved in this divorce are going to lose.$0$0Alcoholism in marriage and divorce are almost given unless the addiction is addressed.$0$0$0$0$0$0$0$0$0Ned Wicker is the Addictions Recovery Chaplain at Waukesha Memorial Hospital Lawrence Center He author's a website for addiction support:$0$0Drug-Addiction-Support.org or Help for Alcoholism$0$0$0$0$0$0$0Drug-Addiction-Support.org/addiction-recovery-now.html

  Prescribed Addiction?

  $0$0You can't get away from them. Prescription drugs are all over the television, every channel is filled with ads for pills; pills that will make our lives better. There are pills for allergies, pills for heart problems, pills for sexual problems, pills for blood disorders and pills for depression.$0$0You need these pills to be healthy and happy. Madison Avenue and the pharmaceutical industry have collaborated to create the great American need for pills.$0$0Are doctors causing the problem?$0$0I do not intend to thrash away on the legitimate medical use of pills. Not at all, but the truly marvelous advances in medicine have taken a back seat to the lure of enormous profits. The drug companies visit clinics and hospitals, selling their product to doctors. Use our drugs, not their drugs is the message. There may or may not be financial incentive for the doctor, depending on the ethics of the individual. But ethics is at the heart of the issue.$0$0The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel ran a front page article by Gina Barton on February 24, entitled "Lethal drugs, lethal access" that told the story of the unexpected consequences of prescription medicine. Barton told the story of Daryl Collie, who overdosed on a combination of painkillers oxycodone and diazepam.$0$0Collie's father, Alfred, trusted the care of the physician. He did not know what was going on. His son got drugs from his primary care physician, who would later go to prison for selling prescriptions. He had another doctor writing scripts, and that doctor would run afoul with the law for writing "huge amounts of prescriptions for addictive pain killers." Daryl also got drugs from a third doctor, who had been investigated for the same issue. The story talked about sanctions against the three doctors by the Wisconsin Medical Examining Board.$0$0How did Collie get three different doctors to write prescriptions?$0$0The article focused on doctors who overstepped the bounds of accepted medical practice. Even if there were no ethical issues on the part of the doctors, there was still no way to prevent the problem from occurring.$0$0Once a person becomes addicted, they need to become cleaver to make sure there is a constant source of their drug(s) of choice. Emergency departments all over the country face drug-seeking patients every day.$0$0They come in for treatment.$0$0They demand treatment. They sue if they don't get treatment.$0$0The law protects their right to abuse the system.$0$0What if a triage nurse in a hospital could access a data base and see that the patient has been given prescriptions for X, Y and Z? What if a primary care physician could go online and see that their new patient has received these prescriptions from other physicians?$0$0There needs to be a balance$0$0There has to be a balance between patient need and patient demand. A patient may need more drug to manage pain over time, but will not be addicted. The patient's condition needs to be monitored and medical decisions need to be based on that information.$0$0But if a patient is seeing several physicians who do not know about each other, and receives prescriptions that lead to an overdose, the arbiter of this scenario is probably going to be a district attorney.$0$0A national database could help$0$0A national database on prescriptions will be the first tool in instituting tighter regulations on the distribution of legal drugs. You can argue the right to privacy of medical records, but I would submit that when a patient seeks additional prescriptions which are in direct conflict with accepted medical practice, to use the drugs for other than their intended purpose, or to in any way involve a third party in an unethical or illegal act (i.e. the pharmacist) that is cause for a more public reaction.$0$0Regardless of the circumstances of their addiction, the patient is not in a position to make an ethical or moral decision. In the vast majority of cases, physicians are the ones who should have the say on what is prescribed, but have access to complete and reliable information, not just the word of the patient.$0$0Those few physicians who violate the trust we place in them and cross over the line, do not deserve to practice medicine and the medical community needs to deal with that. Otherwise we will have lawyers practicing medicine.$0$0Pharmaceutical companies need to be part of solution$0$0Drug abuse is abundant in our country. If nothing else, just take the ads of TV. Pharmaceutical companies do great good in developing medicines to fight against so many diseases. That is to be respected, but when the fight for the good of mankind becomes more business than science, the ethical and moral issues pollute the cause.$0$0Over the counter drug abuse is very often a Prescribed Addiction!$0$0$0$0$0$0$0$0$0Ned Wicker is the Addictions Recovery Chaplain at Waukesha Memorial Hospital Lawrence Center He author's a website for addiction support:$0$0Drug-Addiction-Support.org or Help for Addiction to Prescription Medications$0$0$0$0$0$0$0Alcoholism-Support.org/Alcohol-Intoxication.html

  Parents Need to Take the Lead Against Drugs

  Parents Need to Take the Lead Against Teenage Drug Abuse, it seems obvious but many times isn't. I remember a conversation I had with a police detective some 35 years ago. He was telling me about what a mother had told him over the phone about her teenaged son. "Once he's out of the house, he's not our problem." The detective, who served an upscale suburban community, was explaining to me that parents can be irresponsible and in his mind almost criminal in their neglect of children.
  
  Parents are the most important people in a child's life. They set the tone for everything. If parents abuse drugs, the children are likely to abuse drugs. If husbands beat their wives, their sons will likely be wife beaters too. If parents divorce and abandon their children, those children are not likely to become model parents either. Parents are the front line in the prevention of drug abuse and there's so much they can do to try to secure the best possible future for their children.
  
  The trouble is parents want schools to do everything. Parents need to take the LEAD against teenage drug abuse. Teachers become parents, because "once he's out of the house he's not our problem." What happens in the home is more important than what happens in the classroom. Parents can set the example by being informed. That begins with understanding the dangers of prescription medication. What is in your medicine cabinet? Do you know what medications are in the house, and how much of that medication you have? Are medications out of date?
  
  Take an inventory and keep track of what is in the house.
  
  If a medication runs out too quickly, that is a sign that someone might be abusing that drug. Talk to your kids and make this a family project.
  
  Teens especially will experiment with drugs. They hear about the experiences of their friends. They want to be cool and part of the crowd. If they experiment with the drugs in your house, what will happen? If you have a pain medication, what will that do? If you have a stimulant of some kind, what will that do? What are the dangers of overdose? Ask yourself, what are the dangers to my child?
  
  Take control. Be the parent, the adult. Have an open conversation with your children about drugs, especially the drugs in your house. Stay on top of it and know the inventory. Make connections with principals and teachers at the school, with your family doctor and pharmacist, and with local law enforcement officials.
  
  Be savvy. Know what is in your house, in the community and the potential negative impact it will have on your family. Drug abuse prevention starts in the home with responsible parents. Having this family discussion and having a plan about how to handle the medications in your home will be an effective preventative measure.

  The Elephant in the Room...Addiction Denial

  During one of his recent sermons, my pastor Mike Frans put up a slide for the congregation to examine. It was a photo of a corporate conference room, with a dozen people seated around a large table. In the room was an elephant. Nobody was paying any attention to it. Whether intentionally, or unintentionally, no person in the conference room wanted to deal with the fact of the elephant.
  
  For me, the elephant in the room was a good visual for recognizing "denial." Maybe if I ignore it, the elephant will go away. Perhaps if I appease it by offering a few peanuts it will have the good sense to understand my needs and allow me to continue my work. Nobody else is saying anything about the elephant. Maybe they don't see it. In that case, I'll say nothing. Then again, it may not be there at all if I close my eyes. It could be a baby elephant. That wouldn't be so bad.
  
  Denial is a brutal enemy, because it doesn't allow us to confront the problem, find a solution, or give us any hope of recovery. A while back a woman was trying to convince me that denial was relative. She insisted that a person who doesn't see a problem isn't in denial because they don't believe there is a problem. No amount of evidence makes any difference. If my life is out of control, my relationships are broken or damaged, my job is gone and I am having health problems as a result of my drug use, and if I am the only person that doesn't see it, that's denial. Addiction Denial isn't subjective, it's objective.
  
  People always think they can handle it. They can quit any time. They will not become addicted. They deny the problem. That's why the first of the 12 Steps starts out by stating, "We admitted..." Step 1 is about getting over denial. I see the elephant in the room, I acknowledge it and I realize that if I don't remove the elephant in the room, cleaning up the mess will be a major task. After all, you have to feed the elephant and its droppings are not pleasant. Still, denial is powerful and people will actually choose to live with the elephant rather than admitting its existence.
  
  Denial robs us of opportunity. Let's say your "elephant" is tiny, a new born. By not admitting that the problem is there, that your control is slipping, that the potential for disaster is looming around the corner, there is not way you're going to address the issue and find a strategy to deal with it. Addictions, like elephants, can grow in to very large problems. Denial is also myopic and arrogant. I don't see it, so you're wrong. You can't possibly be right, because that would mean that I'm wrong and we can't have that.
  
  Denial stunts personal growth. Health issues aside, by feeding the elephant instead of our soul, we stagnate as a person. There is no room for reason, for stretching one's understanding or reaching out to others. There is no room for development. Addiction keeps us trapped in one place, to feed the elephant and limits human potential.
  
  Sometimes one of the people in the room exclaims, "Let's get rid of the elephant." Others may agree and say, "Yes, the elephant is getting in the way and we don't want to deal with it." However, if the elephant is yours, you say, "Oh no, you're wrong. You're being hateful. Stop judging me. You have no right to say there's an elephant in the room." If denial takes a strong foothold, they you and your elephant may be asked to leave the room.
  
  Overcoming denial leads to restoration. It is the beginning of the process, and the beginning of a new and exciting period of self-discovery and examination. You don't need the elephant. Nobody else wants the elephant. Get rid of your denial elephant and get back to your place at the conference table. Alcoholism-Support.org/Alcohol-Intoxication.html

  A Case For Alcohol and Drug Testing

  It's good to set standards and to expect that people will uphold those standards. However, it is rather naive to think that they will uphold the standards if you don't inspect what you expect.
  
  Several school districts around Southeastern Wisconsin, where I live, are conducting random drug testing for students participating in extra curricular activities. This has been going on for a while, but it's a controversial topic.
  
  Legalities aside, the districts that don't conduct any drug testing aren't participating because they don't see any data to support the effectiveness of the testing. With drug use rampant, why not test? Do people really think that kids who go out for sports never use drugs or alcohol? What data are they looking for?
  
  Drug testing is nothing new, but for school districts, it's a sad reality of today's society. When I was in high school there were beer parties, and there was always talk about smoking marijuana, but it wasn't main stream.
  
  In the 1960's there were a lot of decisions made about school; we decided as a nation that you weren't allowed to pray in school, and the drugs, sex and rock-n'roll generation got married and decided that their children wouldn't be subjected to any scrutiny. After all, we decided that our children were entitled to have things better than we did.
  
  I recall a court case in the early 1970's when a school got sued because a coach told a player to get a haircut. I can understand that a large percentage of parents would want to fight any form of drug testing on the simple grounds that their child might, in some way, be inconvenienced.
  
  Students who attend a school that does drug testing and who choose to participate in athletics or other co-curricular activities understand that they might be asked to leave class, go the office and meet with medical professionals, who would ask them to submit a urine sample for screening. Actually, the kids aren't the problem, and if their parents agree to allow the drug testing, there won't be a lot of heat about it.
  
  The debate over drug screening heated up after a 2002 Supreme Court decision that gave the green light for districts to test both athletes and students who join other extracurricular groups. The reason for allowing drug testing is because students choose to sign-up for these voluntary activities.
  
  Moreover, Justice Clarence Thomas concluded that the practice was "reasonably effective." This all hinges on the assumption that students give up some of their right to privacy when they "go out" for a sport or activity. Personally, I have no problem with this.
  
  I coach both football and baseball, and I expect the kids to adhere to the school's athletic code. I heard a report about a kid who got caught selling alcohol and drugs in school, and I was saddened but not shocked to hear that the kid was an athlete. Of course the parents would be outraged if we tested "little Johnny," because their kid would never do drugs. We might bruise his self esteem.
  
  Instead of looking at drug testing as an invasion of privacy and personal liberty, instead of choosing to view drug testing as an attack on a child's character, look at drug testing as a preventative health measure. If a child is tested positive for drugs, test again to make sure; then use the test as a means to reach out and help the child understand the risks of using drugs. Don't use the test as an excuse to expel them, or punish them, but exercise a little grace and work with them.
  
  As much as I am for testing, I am against "zero tolerance" because it doesn't allow for positive corrective measures. Expelling a child for drugs isn't going to help him/her, but it will most likely reinforce why they took drugs to begin with.
  
  I also believe in testing every student, not just the ones who participate in extra curricular activities. Of course the ACLU would jump all over this. Tests can be random, so a small number of students can give you a statistically accurate sampling of the student population. The trouble with this approach is that it might shock you to see the results. If you tested every student it would be very expensive, but a statistically correct sampling would give parents and administrators a good indication of the drug use in their schools.
  
  I believe in drug testing, as I submit to tests all of the time. The example set by all-star baseball player Josh Hamilton is a perfect illustration of the best attitude. Kicked out of baseball for his drug use and later reinstated, Hamilton submits gladly to weekly drug tests to show that he is clean, and to honor those who have put their trust in him. Expect, but inspect what you expect. It's time to get back to personal responsibility.
