But they're also very narcissistic in general, and needy, and as a result, if you want to be part of their care, often you can find yourself going beyond normal boundaries and going above and beyond what you would do for other patients." She adds, "It's very easy to slip over the line of giving good, objective care and maybe overtreating at times.

"We all probably develop cancer cells that don't get past a few replications because of the effect of normal telomere shortening.

Two million people are scheduled to descend on the Vancouver area to watch the Olympic Games over the next two weeks, but although the competition is staged at one of the world's great ski areas, very few visitors will actually ski. "The snow is spectacular. The town is Olympic ready, Games ready. The energy is off the charts," says Bill Jensen, CEO of Intrawest...
