<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-355" title="Brain Tumor" src="http://ehealthcounselor.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/original-280x210.jpg" alt="Brain Tumor" width="280" height="210" />When Ashley was 5, she felt intensive pain in her eyes.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After checking the doctor recognize that her brain tumor due to abnormal enlargement of optic nerve, which is use to send information to brain from retina.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Now she is 15 and living in his home city Ohio bases in Gahanna, was later suspected as pseudo tumor cerbri, an awful situation in which without any definite reasons the pressure inside the brain builds, and cause blindness.<br />
Pseudotumer cerbri was once an adult’s disease but now rising in children and doctors think that obesity is the main reason for this, as the statistics show about 2/3 of the child victims are excessive weight, however Ashley is remaining 1/3 of them.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Dr. E. Steve Roach, who is neurology chief and vice chair of pediatrics at Nationwide Children&#8217;s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, strongly believes that due to increasing rate of obesity in children, pseudo tumor cerbri is raising among them, but there are no clear statistics to prove that reason.<br />
He further said, it was the spike in children that motivated his colleague and him to build that’s believed to be the first phantom tumor clinic in the country for children. At the time of opening, the clinic has the services of an ophthalmologist, neurologist and endocrinologist for treatment. Now Nationwide is treating 80 children with pseudo tumor cerbri.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In Pseudotumer cerbri the loss of vision is so slow that the kids don’t feel of losing site until the vision is almost gone, we have the capabilities to cure it but one thing the patient has to do is treat in early stage, said by Roach.<br />
After taking seven prescriptions daily, more than 30 surgeries to replace stop working shunts, and more than 50 times admitted to hospital, Ashley Lauren is still suffer from awful pain.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ashley Lauren thinks about himself that thought out her life she never lived normal life like other do, and all I remember is awful pain that is with me.<br />
People and doctors think I am normal but they don’t understand the actual condition.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Diane Ashley (Lauren mother) with  the help of other effected families  started a new foundation (ihgraymatters.org)  to inform people and gather money to help suffering families and Diane says that , when more people will know, the more the chances of new researches  and more doctor will come through to provide their services.</p>

<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-297" title="fast-food-obesity-big" src="http://ehealthcounselor.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/fast-food-obesity-big-257x280.jpg" alt="fast-food-obesity-big" width="257" height="280" />If obesity is your problem then it is not the biggest problem you have. The biggest problem that you have is you are not ready to believe that you can become as slim as a normal person. Every time you start eating, you make yourself an excuse to go on eating. And the excuse is “oh! Come on, there is no way I can be normal again, so why give up the delicious turkey?” well, you have to deal with this problem at first and then think about your obesity.<br />
Obesity can be a lethal disease and if not then at appoint in time, you will feel like a dead person or worse than that. So, you have to confess to yourself that you are making up excuses to eat more and you have to listen to what I say and you will have to give yourself a last chance of rehabilitation.<br />
The first thing you need to do is accept the facts that you crave foods. Admit that you make mistakes with your food habit. Point out what are the mistakes and why do you commit those mistakes. Put an end to all your excuses and prepare yourself to control your diet.</p>
<p>Be self motivated. Do not wait for somebody to push you. It is your problem and no one is going to solve it but you.</p>
<p>Stand in front of the mirror and see the person in front of you. This is what you are. But this is not who you want to be. Imagine an image of yours that you want to be and work hard towards that image.</p>
<p>Concentrate hard and be focused. Do not let anyone or anything come between you and your goal. Hope you will explore the fit yourself within a short time. Good luck.</p>
