Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Southern Remedy Relatively Speaking | Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Q: What is OCD and how does it differ from normal worries?
OCD is a disorder characterized by persistent obsessions and compulsions that consume substantial time (more than an hour daily) and cause distress, unlike typical worries which do not impair daily functioning to that extent.
Southern Remedy Relatively Speaking | Navigating a Medical Crisis
Q: How did you handle nutrition and energy when chemo killed your appetite?
The 'Nibble Diet' of small, frequent bites, soups, and protein-rich drinks helped maintain weight and energy, along with targeted meals the person could tolerate, adapted to preferences and medical guidance.
Southern Remedy Relatively Speaking | Navigating a Medical Crisis
Q: What are specific ways friends and family can support someone undergoing treatment?
Be proactive with concrete offers (like bringing soup or protein shakes), help manage daily tasks, provide transportation, and simply be present without pushing for optimism or making light of the situation.
Southern Remedy Relatively Speaking | Navigating a Medical Crisis
Q: What inspired you to write about your experience during chemotherapy?
Janne says chronicling each treatment became an adjunct therapy, helping her process feelings, track what worked, and share insights with others facing similar journeys.
Southern Remedy Healthy and Fit | Brain health
Q: Do things like crossword puzzles or other cognitive exercises help brain health?
Yes, cognitive activities that challenge the brain in new ways are beneficial, with more varied and novel tasks providing greater brain engagement than repetitive routines.
