Judge: Ex-NFL players must see neurologists close to home
PHILADELPHIA — A federal judge in Philadelphia says retired NFL players seeking testing as part of a $1 billion concussion settlement must see a doctor close to home to prevent fraud and "doctor shopping." Lawyers for thousands of ex-players say they agreed to the settlement because they could choose their own neurologist. Their lawsuits alleged the NFL long hid what it knew about concussions and brain injuries. Some players' lawyers call the ruling Thursday from Senior U.S. District Judge Anita Brody a significant change to the 2013 settlement. The league and the former players are battling over dementia claims after first handling cases involving Alzheimer's disease and other serious diagnoses. Less than 15 percent of the 1,700 dementia claims filed so far have been approved and paid. … [Read more...] about Judge: Ex-NFL players must see neurologists close to home

PARENTS were left heartbroken after they were told a roadside memorial to their son had been removed because it was “too close to houses”. Julie Watt and her husband Mark had travelled to Noosa, north of Brisbane on Thursday to mark what would have been Jayden’s 35th birthday. But when they arrived they discovered the memorial to their son who died when he was 23 years old had been removed.

Julie took to Facebook to express her heartbreak over the memorial being removed without any notification. She wrote: “As we drove to deliver flowers to our son's roadside memorial cross... we were not expecting the phone call that would soon notify us that our place, the place where we felt closer to our son, brother, friend had simply been removed with no warning. Julie added: “It … [Read more...] about Parents heartbreak as roadside memorial for tragic son, 23, is cleared away for being too close to homes

Ms. Gillibrand, a Democrat, deflected. “As I said then, I was solely focused on winning our midterms, creating transparency and accountability over this White House,” Ms. Gillibrand said on Wednesday. “I continue to fight for New Yorkers as I’ve always done,” said Ms. Gillibrand, the state’s junior senator. “But I believe the urgency of this … [Read more...] about Gillibrand Road Tests 2020 Campaign Themes, at a Diner Close to Home
