Archives Will love keep us alive?Will love keep us alive? In an ideal world, love lasts forever. So what becomes of the broken hearted? You know, those who’ve had love that’s now departed? Some believe they could suffer from “broken heart” syndrome. Researchers at Johns Hopkins University and other institutions discovered that sudden emotional stress can result in stress cardiomyopathy, severe weakness in the heart muscle that mimics a classic heart attack. The symptoms are likely brought on by a surge of stress hormones. The good news is this condition, also referred to as “broken heart” syndrome, can be reversed. Even country legend Johnny Cash was believed to have succumbed to a broken heart within four months of the passing of his wife of 35 years, June Carter Cash. Johnny Cash’s death was determined to be due to complications from diabetes; however, links have also been found between bereavement and a higher risk of

death from any cause in the months following the death of a loved one. It’s true that love is a battlefield at times and studies have shown that the loss of love can have a significant impact on your health, but not all relationships make for sad song lyrics. Whether you are with the one you love, remembering a loved one, looking for love, or completely happy on your own, just remember that someone’s heart skips a beat because of you and what you do for others. Happy Valentine’s Day!

We aren’t thinking of a number, we know it. The question is, do

you? Take a look at the picture, or visit Public Affairs, to come

up with your best guess for the number of pieces of candy in the

water bottle and you could win it. E-mail your response to

jwise@kumc.edu by close of business on Monday, Feb. 13. The

individual with the closest guess will be notified by e-mail on

Tuesday, Feb. 14. Only one guess per person please.

Washington Elementary, a school close to KU School of

Medicine–Wichita, is preparing for their annual state

assessments, which are given to 3rd-5th grade students.

In past years, the school has been able to use Title I

funds to provide a small, healthy, packaged snack for

the students each day prior to taking their tests.to help

ensure that the students are not distracted during the

test by hunger. Unfortunately, Title 1 funds can no

longer be used to purchase food for students and with

budget cuts, the school does not have alternate funding

for this project. They are currently seeking donations of

these snacks and are asking for our help! Following is a

list of the snacks that are being collected. All snacks

should be individually packaged.

Chewy Granola Bars

Peanut Butter Crackers

String Cheese Sticks

If you would like to donate any of these snacks, please

drop them off in Public Affairs by Thursday, Feb. 23. If

you have any questions contact Jennifer Eaton at
