This reminds me of when I dislocated my shoulder. I don't have vivid memories, I just remember that it hurt really bad for quite a while. I feel like the brief descriptions depict what it is like to go through an injury. You're so focused on the pain you...
I think creating an Alzheimer's vaccine would be life changing, I just don't know how realistic it could be. There's so much unknown with the condition, it's going to be a long time until scientists develop one. I've known people who had dementia, so I understand how important it...

I totally agree with you saying that the athletes "are students first." Academics should always come first, especially if you're going to college. Do you really think big D1 schools will put their students on academic probation though? Big name college athletes are most likely able to get exceptions...
